A fat man who was reborn from the dead? He transforms into a perfect male god in a week.

On stage, Jiang Chen continued his speech.

"My topic today is 『The Unwritten Chapters: How Our Choices Define the Human Saga』."

(My topic today is "The Unwritten Chapters: How Our Choices Define the Human Epic.")

The judges were surprised once again when the question was presented.

This question...is insightful!

Unlike the simple themes that high school students often choose, such as "My Dream" or "My Hometown," this is different.

Jiang Chen then began his speech.

He did not use any flowery language, but rather used plain yet precise language to explore the relationship between human choices and the course of history.

From democratic choice in ancient Greece to the humanistic awakening of the Renaissance;

From the technological choices of the Industrial Revolution to the data dilemmas of the Information Age.

Each passage is rich in classical allusions, yet it is also profound yet easy to understand.

What's even more terrifying is his pronunciation... pure, elegant, and composed.

It's like a gentleman from Country E sharing his insights in a salon, not a high school student giving a competition speech.

Although the students below the stage couldn't understand much of what he was saying, they were all drawn to his pronunciation and demeanor.

"It sounds so good...like listening to a radio drama."

"Although I can't understand what he's saying, he seems really impressive."

"Is this really a high school student? Are you sure it's not a guest speaker hired by the BBC?"

Wu Feng's expression changed from contempt to shock, and then to... inferiority.

His supposedly impressive English skills were like a primary school student's essay encountering a Nobel Prize-winning work in front of Jiang Chen.

Chen Xue was also stunned.

She grew up abroad and English is her native language, but her pronunciation is lighthouse English, and it's the kind of lighthouse English that ordinary people speak.

She had only ever heard Jiang Chen speak with that kind of aristocratic air in movies.

In reality, could a high school student speak so perfectly?

impossible!

But the facts are right before our eyes.

Three minutes passed quickly.

Jiang Chen concluded with an elegant ending:

"In the end, it is not the chapters written by fate, but the pages we choose to fill, that truly define the epic of humanity. Thank you."

(Ultimately, what defines the epic of humankind is not the chapters written by fate, but the pages we choose to fill. Thank you.)

After speaking, he bowed slightly.

The audience was deathly silent.

It wasn't that it wasn't exciting; it was so exciting that no one had time to react.

A full ten seconds passed before thunderous applause erupted!

"Clap clap clap clap!!!"

Applause swept through the entire auditorium like a tidal wave, lasting for a long time.

On the judging panel, all seven teachers stood up and applauded vigorously, their eyes filled with awe and admiration.

"Perfect! Absolutely perfect!"

"Pronunciation, content, typhoon... all perfect!"

"This is absolutely the most perfect high school speech I've ever heard today... no, it's the most perfect one I've ever heard!"

"Champion! It has to be the champion!"

Below the stage, Chen Xue and Wu Feng clapped in a daze.

Chen Xue's eyes held a complex mix of surprise, admiration, and a hint of frustration.

Her native-level spoken English, which she was so proud of, seemed so...ordinary compared to Jiang Chen's classical and elegant aristocratic accent.

Wu Feng's face turned pale.

He had previously thought Jiang Chen was just there to make up the numbers, but now he realized that the clown was actually himself.

Jiang Chen's speech, in terms of both pronunciation and content, completely outshone his.

No, it's not crushing the opponent, it's a dimensional reduction attack.

It's like the difference between a doctoral student and an elementary school student.

Han Feifei was sitting in the audience, so excited that she almost cried.

Because she made the right bet!

Jiang Chen is really... incredibly awesome!

……

Jiang Chen stepped off the stage and returned to his seat.

Han Feifei excitedly grabbed his arm: "Jiang Chen! You...you're amazing!"

"My goodness, how did you learn that accent? And the content is so well written!"

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Just kidding."

Han Feifei: "..."

Just saying that casually?

Your casual remark completely impressed all the judges and contestants!

"Why didn't you tell me your spoken English was this good?" Han Feifei asked, both excited and reproachful. "You made me worry for so long for nothing!"

"You didn't ask."

Han Feifei was speechless.

Indeed, she never asked Jiang Chen about his English level before signing him up.

"However," she suddenly laughed, her eyes curving into crescents, "that's great, the championship is in the bag! Hahaha, I can brag to the other teachers when I get back!"

Jiang Chen smiled but didn't say anything.

What he cares more about is how much "wow factor" he can gain from this wave.

……

The rest of the game became garbage time.

After Jiang Chen's amazing speech, the performances of the subsequent contestants sounded like elementary school students reading from a textbook.

The judges listened absentmindedly, and the audience was also uninterested.

Several contestants even stopped halfway through their presentations and hastily left the stage.

There's no way around it, the gap is just too big.

It's like listening to a world-class symphony and then hearing street performers – you just can't listen to it.

At 4 PM, all contestants finished their speeches.

The judges scored and tallied the results on the spot.

The result is no suspense.

Jiang Chen, 100 points, first place.

Chen Xue, 92 points, second place.

Wu Feng, 90 points, third place.

During the awards ceremony, when the host announced that Jiang Chen had won the championship, the entire audience erupted in enthusiastic applause once again.

Jiang Chen went on stage to receive the award, taking the certificate and 3000 yuan prize money from the judges.

Offstage, Han Feifei was all smiles, snapping photos with her phone, ready to post them on her WeChat Moments to show off.

At this point, the host asked Jiang Chen, "Jiang Chen, your English is amazing! How did you learn to speak like that?"

(Jiang Chen, your English accent is amazing! How did you learn to speak like that?)

Jiang Chen smiled into the microphone: "I just... read a lot, watch a lot, and practice a lot."

(I just...read more, look more, and practice more.)

The audience: "..."

This answer is as good as saying nothing at all.

But paired with his handsome face and confident smile, it actually makes sense...?

The awards ceremony has ended.

As soon as Jiang Chen stepped off the stage, he was surrounded by several people.

Wu Feng was the first to walk over, his expression complex: "Jiang Chen, you... are amazing."

Chen Xue followed, her eyes shining: "Your English accent is so authentic! Did you live in England?"

Jiang Chen shook his head: "No, I taught myself."

"Self-taught?"

The two spoke in unison, their expressions as if they had seen a ghost.

Jiang Chen smiled and said nothing more.

Han Feifei squeezed through the crowd and grabbed Jiang Chen's arm: "Jiang Chen! You're amazing! I knew you could do it!"

She blushed with excitement: "Come on, come on, your teacher will treat you to dinner! Let's celebrate!"

Jiang Chen glanced at the system panel.

[Current Amazing Value: 1000 points]

Perfect, I've earned back the 1000 points I spent.

Moreover, once the news spreads, the price will definitely rise again.

It's worth it.

"Teacher Han, it's okay to eat now!"

Jiang Chen said, "But I have to go back to school first; I still have books to read in the library."

Han Feifei: "...You just got first place, and you're already thinking about going back to studying?"

"Otherwise what?" Jiang Chen said matter-of-factly. "Learning is like rowing against the current; if you don't move forward, you fall behind."

Han Feifei: "..."

She suddenly realized that her student might be more than just a super genius.

Moreover, it is the king of kings among kings.
