They only knew that Bai Zhi had transferred classes, but they never expected her to actually skip a grade. How could that trash, Bai Zhi, possibly skip a grade? There couldn’t be something fishy about it, could there? Had she pulled some strings?
But right now, he didn’t have the mind to fuss over it, because he had to go on stage to receive an award.
Actually, he had been first every year for the past few years. He truly felt lonely.
"Now let’s announce the top ten students of the sixth grade.
First place, Bai Zhi.
Third place, Gao Liang.
Fourth place, Wang Jia.
Tenth place, Bai Fei.
Those whose names are called, please come to the stage and let’s give them a warm round of applause."
The teacher’s words passed through the microphone to everyone’s ears.
Bai Yu’s eyes widened, disbelieving as he stared at the podium. How could this be? How could this be?
How could that trash, Bai Zhi, who was always last in class, possibly make it to first place? And those students from Class 2, they actually scored higher than him?
Bai Yu just couldn’t accept this reality, believing he was the most outstanding one.
He was supposed to be the top of the grade, the only moment that made him feel proud. A moment that belonged only to him.
"Hurry up and go, what are you doing?"
Class 1’s head teacher glared at Bai Yu. She had always been the proudest among the head teachers of the four classes. Her students performed well, unlike the other three classes, either bogged down by poor performers or unable to keep up with the average grade. How could they compare with her?
But this time, Bai Yu, who was always first in the grade, had actually lost?
No, it wasn’t exactly losing, rather, he performed well, but the others did even better with fewer mistakes. How could that be?
"Does any student want to share their learning experiences with everyone?"
Bai Zhi took the microphone, looking at the people below. Elementary school performance, especially at this time, was easy to improve if one mastered the techniques. But some people, they didn’t want to share their learning methods, like Bai Yu, who only wanted to be number one, uncaring about others.
Today, he wanted to see Bai Yu crumble.
"Of course, whether it’s math or Happy Chinese, there are little tricks to learn. Once we understand them, things get a lot easier.
For example, in math, there are small techniques... If there’s something unclear, you can ask Gao Liang from our class. Everyone knows he used to be a poor student, but now...
Thank you, everyone."
Bai Zhi finished, and Bai Yu’s face turned deathly pale. Some people are selfish, unwilling to share learning methods and wanting only to be number one themselves.
Next up was Gao Liang, who was actually very excited. He used to be a poor student, the kind that always got mixed doubles at home.
"Hello, everyone, I’m Gao Liang. Honestly, standing here for the first time for this reason, I’m not quite used to it."
It wasn’t just not being used to it. In the past, it was always because he had done something wrong and was caught as an example, but this time, he was in third place. A position he could only dream of before.
"This time I actually got third in the grade. I’m telling you, even poor students can succeed if they find the right method, like..."
He didn’t feel it when he said it himself, but when Gao Liang spoke, she sensed something.
Something called confidence.
Gao Liang had completely changed.
"Lastly, I believe you all can do it, just as Sister Zhi believes in us, Sister Zhi, thank you!"
Bai Zhi nodded seriously at him, thinking only one thing in her heart, how much garlic must one eat to achieve this.
