This is too hilarious!

"You're back? Teacher Li brought me some late-night snacks, come and eat with us... What have you been doing? Why do you look so pale?!"

Zou Shuhuai looked up and saw Bai Hui's slightly pale face and obviously evasive eyes, and said in surprise.

Bai Hui had previously said he was going to the restroom and get some fresh air, and he agreed.

Looking at it now...

He'd believe it if you told him Bai Hui had pulled his soul out!

"I'm fine..."

Bai Hui said somewhat vaguely.

With 29 points of sanity, he felt extremely energetic.

Yes, he successfully obtained temporary assistance from this strange tale using the "Heterogeneous Form and Meaning: Long-tongued Parrot".

He was hiding it under the back of his tongue to help him cope with the upcoming exam.

The long-tongued parrot only looks like a parrot; it is not actually a living creature. It belongs to the category of "information-based" superstitions and does not actually have flesh and blood.

With the help of a cunning and controlling mindset, coupled with the psychological filter high school students have for their teachers, the long-tongued parrot that usually lurked in the second year of high school dared not make a move.

Bai Hui had never actually learned Xingyi Quan.

The reason it appears on the 'panel' is mainly because [Ultimate Color] was used on Li Bindao...

Xingyiquan, as a type of internal martial art, is similar to "Basic Eight Pieces of Brocade" in this world, and is also considered part of the curriculum in high school.

Because its boxing intent contains the principle of imitating all things, in this world full of strange tales, it can almost be considered the most versatile boxing style.

Even if you don't get into university, as long as you master this martial art, you might be able to learn some work-related skills from it, no matter what industry you work in in the future...

It is said that the "Nurse's Boxing" was developed by medical staff through their daily practice of Xingyi Quan (a style of Chinese martial arts).

With the use, insights, and deductions of countless caregivers over the years, this has gradually evolved into a highly efficient "clinical intravenous puncture" technique consisting of three forms.

Even the Martial Vein Realm, which follows the 'Fierce Body Realm', requires at least a mastery of Xingyi Quan as a foundation.

Therefore, Xingyiquan was one of the boxing styles that Li Bindao practiced the most during his student days.

Bai Hui was worried that his rationality wouldn't hold up, so he mainly looked at Li Bindao's experiences and insights from his "student days" and "initial concentration of the mind," and naturally gained some experience in Xingyi Quan as well...

……

Closer to home.

Although Bai Hui said he was fine, anyone could tell at a glance that something was wrong with his current state.

The teachers in the office, who were eating the late-night snack that Li Bindao had brought back, had different expressions.

Just as Li Bin was about to say something, he saw Bai Hui staring intently at the skewers wrapped in tin foil and various drinks on the table.

"A late-night snack? Thank you, teacher. I won't be polite then."

As he spoke, Bai Hui picked up a skewer and began to enjoy it.

English teacher Wei Li subconsciously covered her mouth, because Bai Hui's tongue was unusually agile. When he picked up the skewers, he simply brushed his tongue across them and snatched all the barbecue off the skewers!

Not only that, Bai Hui's mouth opened to a strange size. When it was closed, everything was normal, but when it was open, it seemed to have inexplicably expanded by two sizes!

Therefore, Bai Hui can eat seven or eight skewers of barbecue in one bite!

In the blink of an eye, Bai Hui had already finished eating forty or fifty skewers of barbecue as if no one else was around, and even 'pouring' a whole plate of fried rice into his mouth!

He downed another three-liter bottle of cola, then turned around and sat back down in the same spot where he had taken the exam, and started answering questions again.

……

Li Bin and the others looked at each other in bewilderment and had already stopped eating and drinking.

The young teachers, including Zou Shuhuai, were somewhat at a loss.

The two grade directors had already exchanged glances and communicated telepathically.

Liu: "Old Li, what's up with this kid?"

Li Bin hesitated slightly before replying telepathically: "It feels somewhat like when he first condensed his Heart Qi, but it also seems..."

Just to be on the safe side, should you call Teacher Zhang over first?

Liu Shuyan glanced at Bai Hui, who was already in exam mode, and without further ado, nodded and said, "I'll go out for a bit."

Bai Hui's eyes darted around as he secretly observed, without looking up. He continued answering questions, but his mind was already wandering to the question, "What is Director Liu going to do in the middle of the night?"

……

Because of Bai Hui's obvious abnormality, the teachers lost interest in investigating whether Bai Hui was really "manipulating his scores".

Moreover, when Bai Hui returned to the exam, he no longer made random drafts; at most, he would scribble some meaningless lines on the draft paper.

My answering speed has improved significantly!

Soon, the fake school doctor, Zhang Yan, arrived at the office looking nervous.

This fake person, who claimed that "her husband committed suicide by poisoning himself and was then attacked by ghost stories on his deathbed," has been confirmed by the school as a "part-time worker."

Her past experiences prevented her from returning to her former home, and she has been staying at the school clinic for the past week.

In the dead of night, she was suddenly summoned by school leaders who said they needed to examine or even treat a student... To be honest, she was actually very nervous and conflicted.

After all, it's already past midnight!

Moreover, Liu Shuyan carried a faint scent of smoke and a barely perceptible smell of alcohol...

Of course, there are also some expectations.

After all, this could very well mean a promotion and a raise, which is an irresistible temptation for the "strange tales of working people"!

However, when she followed Liu Shuyan to the office and saw Bai Hui, who was bent over his desk writing furiously, she realized that she had misunderstood and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed...

It looks like there's no chance of a promotion or a raise; it's just regular overtime...

Liu Shuyan ignored the thoughts of the fake school doctor behind him and was about to speak when he saw Li Bindao with a serious expression, raising his hand to stop him.

"Wait a minute, let's see... He'll finish this test paper soon," Li Bin said telepathically.

Liu Shuyan was slightly surprised, but still nodded in agreement.

Zhang Yan: "???"

Seriously... aren't students under that much academic pressure these days?!

Being forced to take an exam in the office at midnight by several teachers is one thing... but wasn't it already said that something was wrong?

Do we have to wait until we finish answering the questions before we can start checking?

……

A moment later, Bai Hui finished the third test paper, casually pushed it aside, and began to work on the fourth test paper.

With the help of the "score prediction" in the "simple lines" mode and the "Grade 11 Long-tongued Parrot," while not a perfect score, it's enough to guarantee a passing grade—after all, this thing was born out of "curiosity about gossip and secrets," not because of studying...

Because he no longer needed to use brute force to solve problems, Bai Hui's answering efficiency improved significantly, and he submitted his answers at the last minute for the first two exams.

The third exam, however, was completed in less than half the time.

He was so engrossed in his work that although his eyes kept darting away and his pupils were darting around wildly, barely focusing on the exam paper, the teachers didn't notice because his head was so low...

And so, time continued to pass.

The fourth, the fifth, the sixth...

The long-tongued parrot was becoming increasingly impatient and curious about Bai Hui's promised "late-night gossip about teachers."

As a result, Bai Hui answered the questions faster and faster. After returning to the office, he finished the remaining eight sets of test papers at five o'clock in the morning and handed them in!

Every exam paper was graded immediately by the teachers present after it was submitted.

Of the ten exam papers, including the one on ghost stories, totaling 1,200 points, Bai Hui scored 968 points with the best efforts of "Grade 11 Long-tongued Parrot"!

Bai Hui paid a heavy price; his sanity had dropped below ten points!

"Alright! Now you can tell me! What's the secret? Tell me now!!!!"

In Bai Hui's heart, the long-tongued parrot's suppressed, manic cries echoed.

His pupils began to dart around erratically and wildly.

But Bai Hui laughed.

He looked up at the black-and-white line drawing, which had been simplified to the point where even textual descriptions were gone, pointed to a spot on the ceiling behind him, and shouted:

"Huh?! Teachers, look! What's that?!"

"Um?"

The teachers, who were intently watching Bai Hui with serious expressions, subconsciously glanced back.

Bai Hui then took the opportunity to lower his head and "spit out" the long-tongued parrot from the base of its tongue.

Zhang Yan, who was already prepared, did not look up, but instead made her move immediately—

"Emergency Resuscitation Palm!!!"

Clap your palms together, left and right, and strike Bai Hui's temples.

As the pseudo-school doctor possessed by the "Ghost Story: Part-Time Worker," she had already discovered that Bai Hui's "lesion" was in his brain!

Bai Hui: "...?"

He felt an indescribable, strange coolness surge into his mind.

Then his sanity level temporarily increased by 15 points!

Back to the heights of twenty and above!

Instantly, Bai Hui took a liking to this martial art and looked at Zhang Yan with burning eyes, as if he were looking at a treasure!

The long-tongued parrot was also stunned after Bai Hui spat it out.

Immediately afterwards, several teachers turned around and looked down at the long-tongued parrot.

"Quickly, tell me your secret..." the long-tongued parrot stammered.

boom!

Li Bindao's first move was a palm strike imbued with malevolent intent.

Liu Shuyan looked at Bai Hui, his face full of astonishment: "Kid, you managed to complete the exam while being influenced by this strange tale?!"

Influenced by ghost stories?

"Ah...yes."

Bai Hui reacted quickly: "It's great to be able to hone your skills while taking exams..."
