Chapter 643: All Sides Trying to Poach! Begging Si Fuqing to Leave the Entertainment Industry (1)
Translator: _Min_
The director of the admissions was a genuine arts students, experiencing for the first time a profound misunderstanding of the phrase “giving one’s best effort. ”
How could this possibly be considered giving one’s best effort?
And, seriously, are these even scores a human could achieve?!
Principal Lu couldn’t maintain his composure either. His hand trembled continuously as he held his teacup, unable to lift it for quite some time.
After a few seconds, he took a deep breath and managed to calm down slightly, saying, “Hey, could you check if there’s something wrong with my arm? Maybe I should see a neurologist about my nervous system…”
Finally regaining his senses, the director of admissions wiped the sweat from his brow and replied, “Principal, I think you’re just overexcited…”
His own legs shook uncontrollably as well.
After a moment, Principal Lu slammed his fist on the table, overwhelmed with excitement, “No wonder Professor Chen was so thrilled—she actually scored a perfect 750!”
In previous Seven Schools Joint Examination, a score above 650 was already considered genius-level, meriting special attention.
But now, here was a score of 750!
Principal Lu believed the wisest decision of his life was recruiting Si Fuqing to Northern State No. 1 Middle School.
The director of admissions tentatively suggested, “Principal, could it be possible that she scored 750 because the total score for the exam was 750?” Principal Lu was silent for a moment.
His hand trembled again, and finally unable to bear the weight of the teacup, the teacup shattered as it hit the ground.
It wasn’t just possible; it was certain.
Scoring a perfect score meant there was still room for improvement.
The difficulty of the exam had not reached Si Fuqing’s limit!
Taking another deep breath, Principal Lu inquired, “You’ve been analyzing trends in the international joint examination for years. Where do you think Student Si will rank if she participates next year?”
“It’s hard to say,” the director of admissions frowned. “Her physics is the strongest since this exam was adapted from the international one. She could definitely make it into the top fifty, but the top ten… might be a stretch.”
The international joint examination was highly competitive, drawing the brightest young minds from around the world.
“Top fifty is still very impressive,” Principal Lu rubbed his temples. “Make sure she keeps her performance stable. Let her know she can make any requests to the school. Here, use my account to grant her a school-level scholarship.”
The director of admissions scratched his head, amused by the typically frugal principal’s generosity.
Principal Lu then began reviewing other students’ scores from Northern State No. 1 Middle School.
Because the joint exam was notoriously difficult, in order to protect the students’ confidence, scores and rankings were not made public but were sent directly to the students’ academic systems for their eyes only.
Principal Lu had the complete rankings at his fingertips.
He pushed his glasses up, noting, “Jihuan is stable, scoring 630 on her first attempt, which is quite good. And this Nian Yi’an?”
He vaguely remembered Nian Yi’an as the school’s heartthrob, but his grades weren’t as noteworthy.
Yet Nian Yi’an had scored 558!
“Oh!” the director of admissions quickly added, “Student Nian is Student Sits cousin, and recently, Student Lin has been tutoring him, which has really helped his scores.”
Principal Lu was no longer calm.
He remembered that Nian Yi’an had scored under 500 on a regular mock exam in his sophomore year, and now he was scoring over 550 in the Seven Schools Joint Examination?
“It runs in the family,” Principal Lu nodded repeatedly, smiling, “It looks like next year’s results for Northern State No. 1 Middle School will be quite promising.”
The director of admissions also laughed.
With Si Fuqing as their leading figure, he wouldn’t have to worry about next year’s recruitment.
Over at the set of “Crossing the Demon Realm”:
“Come on, today you’re wrapping up,” Director Tang Haiqiu clapped his hands, holding a megaphone. “Don’t look so forlorn. It’s just a blink of an eye for you, but a long wait for the juniors. And to think you’re an award-winning actor, how embarrassing.”
He faced a dejected MO Yishan.
Under the official Weibo of “Crossing the Demon Realm,” people were constantly asking when Su Yan would finally kill the Celestial Ruler, demanding a dramatic showdown.
Tang Haiqiu was also looking forward to this scene, confident that with Si Fuqing leading, they could definitely achieve a remarkable outcome.
MO Yishan, resigned to his fate, replied, “Ms. Si, please be gentle.”
“That won’t do, Teacher MO,” Si Fuqing weighed the sword in her hand. “This is one of the few highlights of the show. I trust in your abilities, Teacher Mo. As an award-winning actor, I know you’ll perform brilliantly.”
MO Yishan:
