This top-tier academic genius

The office is on the sixth floor, in the teaching affairs office.

Just as Wang Youquan finished watering the bamboo, Qin Zhengyan rushed in and said urgently, "Director Wang, I need to add one more spot to the Mathematics League!"

"Teacher Qin, there's no need to get so agitated. Sit down and let's talk. You should know that the registration period has long since ended, and we can't add any more spots at this point. Besides, our school only has five places, and that's already full."

Director Wang expressed his dilemma, as registration had already closed at the end of last semester, and adding more places at this time would only make things difficult for himself.

He was secretly displeased. He had just been asked to lead the team in the competition, and now he was being given a difficult problem.

Then, Qin Zhengyan, who was slightly out of breath, placed a test paper in front of Wang Youquan.

"Teacher Qin, what does this mean?"

"Director Wang, please take a look at the scores."

"380 points, hmm, very high. As expected of Teacher Qin, you're amazing. I knew you could lead the team without any problems."

"Director Wang, I didn't do this; it was done by a student."

Wang Youquan's eyes lit up instantly, and he sat up straight immediately.

He understood the significance of a score of 380 on the "High School Mock Exam," as the top scorer in the province last year only achieved 380 points.

Now a student has scored 380 on a mock exam. Has our school produced a true genius?

"Teacher Qin, who is this student you're talking about? Is it Li Jia from the second year of high school, Wang Mingchao, or Zhou Yuelin from the third year?"

The three people Wang Youquan mentioned are all promising candidates for this year's National Mathematical League, and are students on whom the school has high hopes.

Qin Zhengyan shook his head. "No, the student who took this test is named Lin Yan, from Class 2 of Senior Three. He never registered at all, which is why I need to add another spot."

"Lin Yan? That name sounds familiar. Class 2, Grade 12, Li Shuhua's class? Oh, I remember now, you mean that transfer student who came back from the entertainment industry?"

"Yes, that's him."

"That can't be right, I remember his grades weren't that good, could there be a mistake?"

Wang Youquan remembered Lin Yan's grades because he remembered that Lin Yan's parents were both employees of a work unit and were minor leaders. He had handled both Lin Yan's leave of absence and return to school.

After returning to school, Wang Youquan made a point of inquiring about the other student's grades, and after learning that they weren't very good, he stopped paying attention to them.

"There's absolutely no mistake. His grades weren't very good before, but recently he seems to have had a breakthrough, and his math has improved by leaps and bounds."

"Is this even possible? Are you sure he completed this exam paper on his own?"

"100% certain! He completed this exam paper in the teachers' office, witnessed by more than ten teachers. You can ask other teachers if you don't believe me."

Qin Zhengyan spoke with great conviction, as if he wanted to get people to testify for him.

He then added, "Moreover, he finished the test in almost one class period. The 20 points deducted were not because he made mistakes, but because he wrote too briefly."

"Wow~ So, does that mean our school really has a dragon among its students?"

"Whether he's a true dragon or not is hard to say, but he definitely has talent!"

After thinking for a while, Director Wang decisively took out his phone and made a few calls in front of Qin Zhengyan.

"Director Lin, did your vocational school not use up all the spots for the mathematics extracurricular competition...? Of course, I'll talk to the organizers... Okay, okay, I'll treat you to dinner another day."

"Team Leader Qian, this is Wang Youquan from Xincheng No. 1 Middle School... Don't worry, the vocational school has already made arrangements... Okay, thank you, thank you!"

After hanging up the phone, Director Wang turned to Qin Zhengyan and said, "Teacher Qin, the registration issue has been resolved."

After hearing this, Qin Zhengyan breathed a sigh of relief.

It would be such a shame if I couldn't register.

Lin Yan is already a senior in high school this year and will graduate next year; there will be no next graduating class.

If such a promising math student can't participate, not to mention others, Qin Zhengyan himself wouldn't be able to get past that hurdle.

"Teacher Qin, I went to great lengths to resolve this matter, so please don't let me down. As for Lin Yan, see what his needs are and let's try our best to meet them so he can prepare well for the competition."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely make sure Lin Yan helps our school get good results."

"Okay, I'm relieved to hear that. I'll also put in a good word with Teacher Li."

The two shared similar thoughts, both hoping to achieve good results in this math competition.

Qin Zhengyan was hoping to get good grades so that he could be promoted to senior teacher.

Director Wang is aiming to break new ground and perhaps even advance to the positions of assistant principal or vice principal.

Lin Yan had just returned to the classroom door when the last class of the morning had just ended.

As soon as the teacher announced the end of get out of class, the students all got up and rushed to the cafeteria.

"Lin Yan, where did you go? You missed two classes. Come on, let's go eat." Chen Bin suddenly appeared.

"It's nothing, I just did two test papers in the teacher's office."

"An exam paper? Old Man Qin called you to his office just to punish you by making you do an exam paper?"

At this moment, Chen Bin's mind was filled with the image of Lin Yan sitting at his desk, scratching his head in deep thought as he looked at the test paper, while Old Man Qin stood beside him with a dark face, ready to deliver a stern reprimand for every wrong answer.

"You're so pitiful!"

Punishment? Lin Yan thought to himself, not really, he actually quite enjoyed doing the problems.

Chen Bin pulled him along and said, "Come on, I'll treat you to something good for lunch, with chicken legs."

The two followed the flow of people toward the cafeteria.

Lin Yan glanced at the virtual panel; the attributes hadn't changed much, but there was a noticeable improvement in academic subjects.

After obtaining the [Physical Intuition (Beginner)] talent, the improvement in physics is very obvious, and it has reached [Physics: LV0 (274/1000)], which is more than 200 experience points.

This is without having systematically studied high school physics. Once you fully master the basic knowledge in the high school textbooks, you can improve significantly.

Besides that, the biggest change was his score, which reached 8125, completely beyond Lin Yan's expectations.

During physics class, I had over 6,000 points. After one lottery draw, I still had over 5,000 points left. In just about two hours, my points have increased by 2,000 to 3,000.

This increase is a bit strange.

Lin Yan knew that she must have gained followers, but she wasn't sure why.

It wasn't until Chen Bin, who was looking at his phone, called out, "Lin Yan, isn't that you? You seem to have become famous."

On the phone screen was the image of Lin Yan playing and singing with a guitar during a live stream that had garnered over 3.8 million views.

Lin Yan then realized the reason for the increase in followers and quickly opened his Huibo account. Sure enough, he found that he had gained more than two thousand followers compared to before.

At the same time, he also discovered that the system has its own set of standards for identifying fans, which are not based on the number of followers or followings on social media platforms, and he estimated that they are real fans.

Chen Bin asked curiously, "When did you record the video? Hey, the account owner who posted the video is a cute girl. When did you meet her? Tell me quickly."

"I don't know her." Lin Yan shook his head, guessing she was probably a user learning live streaming.

"Ugh, this is fake. This girl is pretty, I don't believe it."

"Hehe~"

Believe it or not!

Just then, a car stopped not far away, and the passenger window rolled down.

Qin Zhengyan's face popped out. "Lin Yan, going out to eat? Come on, Director Wang and I are just about to eat out. You can come too! Get in the car!"

"Okay. Ah Bin, you go ahead. Save the chicken leg for next time."

Without saying a word, Lin Yan opened the car door and got in, leaving Chen Bin looking completely bewildered and standing there in the wind.

"Holy crap!!!"
