The next day.

The candidates entered the examination room one after another.

Having learned from yesterday's mistake, Li Jun didn't go to the wrong place today. He went straight to seat number one in the ninth examination room, put down his backpack, and sat sideways against the wall as usual.

He had gotten used to being a student with good grades.

Having experienced the new exam venue, there's nothing new about it anymore.

"Hey buddy, how's your English?" the student behind him asked.

Li Jun shook his head, "My English isn't very good either; it's like gibberish to me."

He learned this trick of pretending to be sweet very quickly.

Moreover, after experiencing yesterday's exam, he understood.

Some people ask others if they know the subject, not because they actually want to copy, but to prevent others from copying them.

Preemptively say that you don't know either, and others will most likely not copy your work.

When the results came out, their scores were all higher than the last.

Li Jun felt that he could still learn new things in the new examination room.

There are no such complicated procedures in the last-place exam room.

The other students in Class 25 were equally calm.

Each candidate continued to strike up conversations with those around them, trying to get acquainted with others and build relationships, hoping to find answers to questions they didn't know by looking at others' answers.

Chemistry this morning, English this afternoon.

The proctor came in with a file folder, opened it, and distributed the exam papers.

The bell rings and the hair curls.

Li Jun received the chemistry exam paper, wrote his name and class, and answered the questions carefully.

Although he had to practice archery during the last two periods in the afternoon, he didn't miss any of his classes. In addition, he listened to Mr. Lu's tutoring after returning from evening self-study, and his foundation in each subject became more and more solid.

The other students in Class 25 answered the questions fluently, just like everyone else.

The situation in each examination room remained largely unchanged.

The hexagonal warriors in the first examination room still answered questions very quickly, with almost no pauses.

The examination rooms at the front were also peaceful, with everyone answering their own questions.

In the middle of the examination room, some candidates were getting restless, occasionally frowning and pausing, keeping their heads still while their eyes darted slyly to the sides.

If a student makes a big movement, the proctor will slowly walk over to the student, without bowing or issuing a warning. Instead, the proctor will look at the other students and leave after a while.

The exam hall, nearing its end, was quiet, and the students were sleeping well.

Lu Qian remained with his hands behind his back, expressionless as he supervised the exam, while a hundred thoughts raced through his mind.

"Your subject secretly reports: Due to misfortune, I have long suffered misfortune. Six months after giving birth, my beloved father passed away..."

Smooth sailing → Natural progression → Willow trees by the roadside → A glimmer of hope after despair →

Stretch your calf muscles...

"..."

The morning exam ended, and the bell rang for the papers to be collected.

The entire examination room seemed to come alive as if an activation button had been pressed.

Complaints, checking answers, grumbling about how difficult the questions were...

Take a break at noon.

English exam in the afternoon.

In the second examination room, Xie Tianming's pen-twirling speed noticeably increased.

English is his weak point, but Xi Wenjing has been watching him memorize so many English words, so he should improve this time. Besides, she has also taught him how to do reading comprehension.

The bell rings and the hair curls.

Xie Tianming wrote down his name and class, then skipped the listening section and began answering the questions.

"Hmm, I think I can understand it; these are all words I usually memorize."

Answering the questions went very smoothly.

Not long after, a notification for a hearing test came over the loudspeaker.

"Buzz buzz buzz, listening comprehension...buzz...test, sound check begins."

Following Xi Wenjing's advice, Xie Tianming stopped the written test and used the sound check to review the questions and options, strengthen his memory, and maintain his rhythm in answering the listening comprehension questions.

"Buzz buzz buzz, the listening test is about to begin!"

wow-

A rustling sound of exam papers being turned filled the examination room.

"Section 1: Listen to the following 5 recordings. Each recording is followed by a question..."

(Classic listening exercise: The shirt costs nine pounds and fifteen pence.)

Xie Tianming listened attentively to the English listening comprehension exercise broadcast over the loudspeaker.

His expression was a bit strange; he didn't seem to feel anything when he was studying with Xi Wenjing.

Now, when I listen to this English listening test, I feel that Xi Wenjing's pronunciation is similar to the pronunciation in the English listening test.

As a result, he didn't experience much hearing impairment and was able to understand what he heard!

He wrote down the answer fluently.

Soon, the English listening comprehension section ended, and he continued working on the questions that followed.

...

In the first examination room, Xi Wenjing had almost finished writing her paper.

For someone like her who can translate English materials, taking a regular English exam is no different from reading Chinese.

As for English listening comprehension, her mother is a professional English teacher, and she has been listening to English accents since she was a child.

She finished the exam with half an hour to spare.

After checking and finding no problems, my mind gradually cleared.

"I wonder if Xie Tianming can even understand English. He's used a lot of the words he's memorized, so his essay should be fine too..."

...

The English exam ended, the invigilators collected the papers, and the candidates left the examination room one after another.

Xi Wenjing picked up her schoolbag and prepared to leave the examination room, but Tang Lingfeng stopped her.

"Hey, Xi Wenjing, you didn't get a perfect score in English this time either, did you?"

"Hmm..." Xi Wenjing thought for a moment, "I don't know, let's see how it goes."

Actually, she wanted to say "I don't know, but I know it will happen anyway," but she felt that would sound pretentious and not quite right, so she changed her wording.

"It depends on luck..."

Tang Lingfeng muttered to himself, "My English also depends on luck."

The second examinee saw this scene but said nothing.

You got a perfect score in English last time, now it's all down to luck? They're just kidding you!

It's a pity Yang Xueting isn't here. If she were, she could tell whether Xi Wenjing did well or not just by looking at her expression.

When Xi Wenjing came out, Xie Tianming was already waiting in the corridor.

"Phew, finally out! Let me hear how I did!" Xie Tianming asked impatiently, "ABDCD..."

A string of answers came out of his mouth.

He knew it wasn't a good answer, but he couldn't help himself.

He was especially eager to see results in subjects he had worked hard on.

Xi Wenjing paused for a moment, "Speak slowly..."

Fortunately, she has a good memory; she can remember most of the test paper, if not the whole thing.

"Yes, what you said is all correct. How did you write your essay?"

"I'll do it like this first... then like this..."

Xie Tianming rattled off a bunch of things, and Xi Wenjing listened, nodding occasionally.

"It's written quite well. As long as the words aren't misspelled, it won't be bad."

As she said this, Xi Wenjing smiled with satisfaction. It seemed that she hadn't wasted her time staring at his back.

"Hey, that's so me!" Xie Tianming raised his chin. "Then tell me, is it possible that I scored higher in English than you, and my final ranking was exactly one place higher than yours?"

"Hehe—" Xi Wenjing twitched the corner of her mouth and chuckled dryly, "No wonder you're good at math, you're quite imaginative."

"You've talked too much. Let's go back to class and see what's going on. If there's nothing else, let's go home," Xie Tianming said.

The two returned to Class 25, where the other students also came back. They chatted with Teacher Lu for a while before going home.
