The form teacher, Shi Qingyan, walked into class carrying a huge stack of paper under his arm. Upon sight of that thick stack, every student was immediately brought back to reality…
If only the whole class would awaken to their powers by tomorrow but as of now, they still had to go through the exams…
Shi Qingyan stood atop the rostrum as he adjusted his glasses, “I know that your mood these few days have been muddled, perhaps you guys have just returned from your vacation and your heart isn’t back yet. But what I want to remind you is that in a year and a half, you guys would be participating in the Final Graduating Examination. If you get left behind now, it would be hard for you to catch up later. So compose yourself, understood? Alright, so for this period, we will be having the Maths test.”
Shi Qingyan did not specify what the students should stay composed about but it was understood by everyone what he was referring to. Lu Shu admired his form teacher Shi Qingyan for he was responsible for his job. Furthermore, Shi Qingyan was the only one with the courage out of the many teachers on the same floor yesterday that rendered help to class 7’s form teacher when he was being beaten up.
Ye Lingling whispered to Lu Shu, “PLease allow me to copy your answers; peace will be blessed upon the good Samaritan.”
The moment Ye Lingling spoke, the surrounding classmates started raising their eyebrows at Lu Shu as they displayed their intention to follow suit.
By now, everyone had realized the usefulness of Lu Shu. At least he would be able to improve their grades for the test.
Although she was used to relying on herself, Ye Lingling always felt that her greatest luck was being able to sit beside Lu Shu. This was because Lu Shu always allowed his test papers to be copied by the classmates surrounding him.
Lu Shu, however, did not do it deliberately to better his relationships with his classmates. But as always, he left his test papers on the table after completion without any effort to conceal his answers.
That was purely due to Lu Shu’s easy-going nature. He did not feel that there was a need to conceal his tests papers in such small tests or was there a need to offend those interested in copying.
But… the situation was different now …
Lu Shu took in a deep breath, why did he look forward to the start of school? Was it not because of his group of adorable classmates ?!
Halfway through the test, Lu Shu had already filled in all his answers. At that moment, Ye Lingling eyes sparkled and the surrounding students started making small silly movements.
Lu Shu would usually leave his test papers flipped to the page with his answers. As they were ready to copy his answers, they saw that Lu Shu had flipped his test paper to the back …
The surrounding classmates thought to themselves that it was no big deal and that they could copy the answers on the back page of the test paper first. As they were about to copy the answers, Lu Shu flipped his test papers once again …
With continuous flipping, Lu Shu flipped his test paper 20 times within a minute… Everyone kept their gaze on the flipping test paper and to exaggerate things, they almost became crossed eyed because of this!
The surrounding students were dumbfounded. Could his intentions of preventing them from copying be any more obvious ?!
“From Ye Lingling distress, +70… …”
“From … … ”
Just from this wave, Resentment from surrounding students had already given Lu Shu 300+ distress points.
Looking at his income records, Lu Shu almost exclaimed in joy.
Not long after the beginning of his paper flipping, Lu Shu caught the attention of Shi Qingyan, “Lu Shu, what are you doing, Keep it down.”
“Sure, teacher,” Lu Shu replied.
At that moment, the surrounding classmates were elated and felt thankful for Shi Qingyan’s existence momentarily. Now Lu Shu would probably not be able to flip his test paper anymore?
Sneakily, everyone placed their sights on Lu Shu’s test paper again, only to find… Lu Shu with his arms perched on his desk and his head cradled in his hands, seemingly deep in thought …
Thinking of your sister? The perched arm blocked the test papers perfectly?! Doesn’t hurt your conscience?
Haha, not only does he not feel guilty, it actually felt great as Lu Shu laughed in his thoughts …
With that wave, it generated an additional 200+ distress points for Lu Shu.
Originally, Lu Shu allowed them to copy as he did not see a need to cover up his test paper since doing so would not benefit him in any way.
But it was different now. You guys schemed against me secretly yesterday, so why would I still allow my test paper to be copied?
Him doing all this now was for the sake of accumulating distress points!
As he accumulated 500 distress points from just one exam, Lu Shu understood that in order to ascend from E-Class, he would have to rely on these adorable classmates of his!
At the same time, a classmate seated behind him was doubtful since he had always joyfully copied his Lu Shu answers. Could it be because that Lu Shu had learned of their conversation the previous day and was mad at them?
From past experiences, the classmate believed that by talking to Lu Shu nicely, they would be able to copy the test answers from him.
From behind, he stuffed a note towards Lu Shu. Lu Shu hesitated for a moment but received the paper and opened it, “Peace will bless the good Samaritan, Multiple-Choice answers please.”
Lu Shu scribbled on the note and passed it back. The classmate was filled with delight as he would be able to get what he wanted now!
But alas, when he opened the note, it wrote, “You wish.”
Instantly, the face of the classmate darkened, what do you want me to wish for, you piece of sh*t!
“From Liu Chang’s distress, +170… …”
Damn, Lu Shu was shocked to see such elevated anger level, did Liu Chang want to start a fight with him?
Liu Chang felt frustrated as it was not as if he did not know how to answer all of the questions but he was just unsure of them. Having borderline and mediocre grades in class, he had no idea whether his answers were correct.
He gritted his teeth and wrote on the slip of paper once again, AABCDABCDA?
As he waited for the slip of paper to come back, Liu Chang kept a lookout for Shi Qingyan. With hesitation and stealth, he waited for Shi Qingyan’s attention to be elsewhere before opening up the slip of paper. Written on it were 3 words, “You wish again.”
“From Liu Chang’s distress, +311!”
Liu Chang was fuming when he saw the note. He finally gave up as he was certain that Lu Shu was mad because of the conversation with him yesterday. If not, why would he be denied the chance to copy the test answers when he had always been allowed to?
That was being too petty! Everyone was only joking!
There were such people in this world who would claim that you are unable to take a joke when they themselves went overboard with theirs.
Haha.
But what Liu Chang did not understand was that Lu Shu was not allowing them to copy not because he was mad; but because Lu Shu had already awakened and was a step ahead of them. He had to piss them off all for the sake of his awakened powers.
Obtaining more than 1000 distress points from this exam, Lu Shu knew that there were no problems at all but had a feeling that this event was far from over.
He looked across to Ye Lingling and shifted his arm a little to review an answer from the test paper : D.
Ye Lingling eyes lit up instantly and quickly scribbled the answer down on her own test paper.
After she had copied the answer, the examination had ended at that moment and Shi Qingyan announced the collection of the paper.
Ye Lingling could be seen with a black face as this was perhaps her worst exam yet in high school. Only focused on copying the answers, she did not focus on her test paper properly at all.
The only positive thing was that the answer she copied for that one question would be correct… and that was her only consolation… …
Only when Ye Lingling passed up her test paper with a face full of unwillingness did Lu Shu finally shift his arms off the table.
At that moment, Ye Lingling was in despair. The answer was actually B and Lu Shu only allowed her to see half of the answer which she assumed to be D!
He must have done it on purpose, it was definitely done on purpose. That B was written so awkwardly large and it was obviously a scheme to trick her!
“From Ye Lingling’s despair, +171!”
