I used Hextech Grinding to become a top student

Upon hearing this, Zhang Weiji hesitated slightly.

The question was given to Chen Mu anyway, since he couldn't solve it himself.

Why not relax your mind? It's not a bad thing to have someone else who can't solve the problem either.

It wasn't that he judged people by their appearance, but rather that the other person simply didn't have the face of a top student.

A typical top student should look like me: wearing black-rimmed glasses, with dark, dull skin, and a standard buzz cut.

The other person is so handsome, he must have been the kind of person who would easily fall in love at a young age. It would be reasonable for him to be unable to resist various temptations. The best way to resist temptation is to have no temptation at all.

Chen Mu had no idea what the other person was thinking. He glanced at the title and judged it as a dish.

"You can't do something this simple?" Chen Mu asked, puzzled.

"?!" Zhang Weiji felt a little red.

In this school, who would say something like that to me?

Even teachers can't do that, right?

If it were at Yunchuan No. 1 High School, and someone were picking on me like this, I could accept it.

In the county's No. 1 High School, I was a once-in-a-lifetime prodigy.

"Come on, explain yourself properly. If you can't solve it, don't blame me for getting angry!" Zhang Weiji said in a warm voice.

"Zhang Weiji believes you are mocking him, negative emotion value increased by 600," the system notification stated.

"Look, it's simple: 1.01 to the power of 100 is larger than 2. Obviously, 1.01 to the power of 100 is larger," Chen Mu said, giving the answer.

"Hehe, I know that too. But what about the solution process? Is it meaningful to guess or feel without a process?" Zhang Weiji asked rhetorically.

"Oh, you need to know the process? Let me think about it." Chen Mu fell into thought.

"I understand!" Zhang Weiji's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized something.

"Then all the numbers after 101 are eliminated, and the final result is 200/100, which is exactly equal to two. This answer must be less than 1.01 to the power of one hundred, therefore 1.01 to the power of one hundred is greater than two!"

"Brilliant! This method is brilliant!" Zhang Weiji was also a top student; he grasped the concept immediately and truly understood the method—even a junior high school student could do it.

Chen Mu followed the other person's train of thought, explaining things point by point.

Zhang Weiji's flushed face gradually calmed down.

After finishing his work, Chen Mu went back to read.

Zhang Weiji remained, standing there bewildered in the wind.

This isn't fair?

He's so handsome, and he's also a top student?

That doesn't make sense!

So, was it because I didn't try hard enough?

It seems that's true. I only study until 2:30 every day before going to bed, while the other person studies until more than 2:30. I even thought the other person wasn't studying seriously.

Now it seems I was completely wrong. Comparing who stays up all night, that's interesting!

Starting tonight, I'll definitely be the one studying the latest!

Zhang Weiji's fighting spirit is being ignited.

Let's start this war, you puppy lovers!

.....

It wasn't until 4:30 a.m. that Zhang Weiji, still half asleep, could feel his eyelids drooping.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Zhang Weiji couldn't help but ask, because the other person's mental state seemed the same as at the beginning.

Is this even human?

"Zhang Weiji can't outlast you, negative emotions increased by 300."

"I usually brush my teeth and eat breakfast around six o'clock," Chen Mu replied naturally.

"Hehe." Zhang Weiji suddenly laughed with relief. So that's how it is. He admits defeat, but it's not a big problem.

It's obvious that the other person is a one-trick pony. Perhaps your math skills are better than mine, but in terms of total score, I am still the king of this school!

If I can't take it anymore, fine. Anyway, I'm the only one from this school who will get into Tsinghua or Peking University in the end, so it's not a big problem. I'm going to sleep now.

Zhang Jiwei chose to make peace with himself, went back to catch up on his sleep, and thought that the other person must be a genius who studies math at night and sleeps in class during the day.

Otherwise, we wouldn't have missed him in the first exam hall, so there's no need to argue over a short time.

Moreover, it's just one question. It's just that the other person has mastered one more method, and I've learned similar questions, so naturally I've also mastered it.

Then, the next day, Zhang Weiji found his notes, which contained a bunch of competition-level problems.

That evening, he asked each of them directly, wanting to know just how much better their math skills were than his own.

Chen Mu answered each question one by one, because he found that he could earn several hundred negative emotion points for each question he answered.

Why not improve your skills at the same time?

Zhang Weiji initially thought that the other party only knew one way to solve the problem, but as the problem progressed, he discovered that it was not just one method.

The other party's mathematical thinking, formula comprehension, and ability to apply knowledge to new situations were all exaggeratedly frightening.

In mathematics, I am really not as good as him.

The other party isn't in Class Zero?

So Zhang Weiji couldn't help but ask, "Which class are you in? What's your name? I'm Zhang Weiji from Class One."

"Class Zero" is a colloquial term; the government does not recognize the existence of such things as "key classes," "rocket classes," or "elite classes."

"Has your name ever won any calligraphy awards? I'm Chen Mu from Class 9." Chen Mu didn't hide anything and answered truthfully.

"Okay, I got it. If I have any questions in the future, can I come to your class to find you?" Zhang Weiji asked. Although he was looking forward to the other person's expression of "Oh, it's you" after hearing his name, he couldn't say it out loud, lest he seem arrogant.

"Of course, you're welcome anytime," Chen Mu said.

I feel like I've started making friends as I've been learning.

Chen Mu felt good!

"However, I still suggest that you get plenty of rest, otherwise your health will easily break down," Zhang Weiji advised.

"Thanks for the reminder. But if you're good at biology, you should know that if you have the DEC 2 gene, you'll naturally sleep less than the average person. It's said that Mr. Luo, the master of time management, may very well carry this gene, and I suspect I do too," Chen Mu said.

"Oh? Is that so? I'm so envious," Zhang Weiji said.

"I'm envious too. They sleep so little and yet get so much sleep. How can I not be envious?" Chen Mu said with longing.

"???"

Zhang Weiji was starting to lose track of what was going on. Sleeping little and sleeping a lot—what kind of age-old problem was this?

Are you testing my Chinese language skills?

"No, I'm testing how much news you read. You're obviously a top student; you don't care about current events at all," Chen Mu said.

This has nothing to do with studying, so Chen Mu refocused on his studies.

Zhang Weiji also started to compete. He only needed to maintain his first place in the overall score. In math, everyone's score was only around 140, and his opponent couldn't possibly pull him down by that.

I, Zhang Weiji, am naturally the overlord of No. 1 Middle School!
