One of the classic horror film suspense scenes is when you turn your head and find an ugly, disgusting face pressed against the glass, with distorted features staring at the camera with a resentful and hateful gaze.
As it turns out, such scenes can appear not only in horror films but also during monthly exams.
Lin Li pretended not to notice Zhou Baowei’s face. After confirming his student number and name were correctly written, he handed in his test early.
With the assistance of [Strong Memory], history became too easy.
After submitting his test, Task 4 was not completed yet. Most likely, it would only be finished after the sect competition officially concluded.

Just after leaving the exam room, Zhou Baowei gave him a loving hug and whispered fiercely.
"Bao Wei, why did my Genshin Impact guide disappear? Any ideas?" The two tacitly left the exam area and headed to the staircase, where Lin Li struck first.
"How dare you accuse me! I’ll kill you, Lin Li! You’re like seven kilograms of gold—four thousand added!" Zhou Baowei was even angrier.
"It’s all for your own good. You’ll understand once you grow up."
Lin Li emphasized while dodging Zhou Baowei’s attacks.
"Forget it, let’s call it a blessing in disguise. I’m sparing you this time." Zhou Baowei heaved a sigh of relief, with large-hearted empathy.
The main reason was Master Zhou’s kind heart, the secondary reason being Master Zhou couldn’t catch Lin Li.
"What’s up?" Lin Li, sensing there was more to it, curiously asked.
The staircase soon echoed with his carefree laughter. After hearing the story, Lin Li heavily patted Zhou Baowei’s shoulder: "Bao Wei, I actually saved you."
"Damn, but during the exam, the teacher kept looking at me with the eyes of a poet! Is this considered rescue?"
"Poet? A broken halberd, recognizing the sand wall with wine, right? Hahaha."
Pain and joy between people aren’t truly shared; Lin Li only thought Bao Wei naturally didn’t like to laugh.
"Sigh, it feels like my grand feast is ruined, heartbroken in September. I hope next month will be kinder to me." Zhou Baowei sighed deeply.
"Still hoping? You’re hopeless like Mi Haisa, wishing each month would be nicer to you. In reality, you’re a thick L who wishes you dead every month." Lin Li sneered.
Flat out, Lin Li, your words really hurt.
"I can’t live, I want to commit suicide, I’m going to jump right now, you better stop me." Zhou Baowei gave up and sulkily squatted at the stairs, his expression gloomy.
"It’s your own doing; if you had memorized seriously, you wouldn’t be this miserable. Besides, a little setback can knock you down? Push yourself for the next exam." Lin Li scolded.
"I was a kid who always played the invincible versions of 7K7K games, what kind of resilience do you expect?" Zhou Baowei had no motivation, even rebutting confidently.
Can’t argue, clearly no tolerance for setbacks.
"You play 7K7K? Not 4399? 7K7K is full of games for little girls!" Lin Li thought the more crucial point now was arguing about something else.
"7K7K had adult content very early on." Zhou Baowei said succinctly.
Absolutely outmatched 4399.
Seems like my awakening came a bit late.
"Then why not play 3366 or 2144? As a kid, I was there blowing up girls’ skirts all day, and finding faults in beauty pictures, fun and playful." Bai Bufan, who also finished his test, eagerly joined the conversation upon hearing this.
"Hello, Teacher." But Lin Li didn’t respond, instead greeting with respectful nod towards the stairway.
Zhou Baowei looked up toward the empty stairway, and seeing Bai Bufan who had run off, afraid of being seen by the ’teacher,’ he gave Lin Li a thumbs up:
"I really like Hu Yifei’s quote. You don’t learn other weapons, Lin Li, but choose to master the sword. Can’t practice upper sword, don’t practice lower sword, natural sword species, nothing to critique."
See how scared Bai Bufan was.
Lin Li and Zhou Baowei returned to Class 4’s entrance.
In Class 4, only a few persistent test-takers were left.
Those in the corridor were mostly Class 4 students.
Everyone returned to the classroom in sync—not because they agreed to do so, but because the school gates stayed shut until the exam officially ended, so going home wasn’t possible. Better to return to class and keep their papers, saving getting scolded by the teacher later.
"Wang Yuezhi, are you ready to call me daddy?" Seeing Wang Yuezhi in the corridor, Lin Li laughed with arms akimbo, looking villainous.
"To think you’d have such courage after the exam, beats me who gave it to you." Wang Yuezhi scoffed, feeling secure with his advantage.
"The courage from the class monitor’s sincere, gentle, and full effort teaching this month." Lin Li smartly replied.
Wang Yuezhi turned and left, seemingly making a firm decision without hesitation.
Clearly, Class 4 was his home.
Why leave one’s homeland?
His departing silhouette, somehow seemed a bit desolate.
Class 4 was Exam Room 5—the main exam room was the school auditorium.
The closer to the main exam rooms, the more likely to have students taking it till the very last second.
Class 4 was among them.
The bell signaled the end of the exam, only then did the scattered students willingly submit their papers.

Returning his desk and chair to the class, Lin Li viewed the system’s message.
