Previously on Top Student: Experience Infinite Occupations...
Li Chengqian confirmed that the "All-Class Master" game functions, including experience gain and skill acquisition, worked in real life. He successfully used the "Focus" skill to speed-read and memorize an entire textbook in minutes, significantly boosting his intelligence and understanding.
[Your Student Class level has increased to Level 4 (191/50)]
[Your Intelligence Stats +1. Current Intelligence: 14 points.]
[Access to the Experience Pool activated. Experience will automatically be stored in the Experience Pool.]
[Current Experience Pool: 191 points.]
“Open the personal interface!” Li Chengqian silently chanted in his heart. The operation felt exactly the same as in his previous life, except that he previously used a mouse, whereas now his mind controlled it.
Instantly, a translucent panel materialized before him.
Name: Li Chengqian
Intelligence: 14 (Average adult: 10 points)
Strength: 10 (Average adult: 10 points)
Agility: 10 (Average adult: 10 points)
Class: Student Level 4 (0/50)
Skill:
1. Focus (Novice 0/1) ?
2. Elementary School Knowledge (Master 53/60) ?
Experience Bar: 1
Noticing the plus sign next to the skill, Li Chengqian did not hesitate and immediately began allocating points.
[7 Experience Bars consumed, Elementary Knowledge Skill (Master 0/150), 184 Experience Bars remaining.]
[150 Experience Bars consumed, Elementary Knowledge Skill (Perfection), 34 Experience Bars remaining.]
Suddenly, all the knowledge contained within elementary school textbooks was fully grasped and assimilated by Li Chengqian.
3,500 commonly used Chinese characters, 13,528 words, and 1,260 idioms...
Elementary School English vocabulary: 800 words, 198 grammar points, basic phonetic transcription, basic spelling, basic sentence structure...
Basic General Knowledge, Basic Painting, Basic Music, Basic Calligraphy, Basic Mathematics, Basic Arithmetic, Basic Computing, Basic Health, Basic Logic...
In a flash, a vast amount of knowledge merged into Li Chengqian’s memories, leaving him with an overwhelming sense of fulfillment.
“I truly never imagined that elementary school textbooks would contain such a wealth of knowledge!” Li Chengqian found it utterly astonishing.
After absorbing the elementary school knowledge at the Perfection level, he felt a significant enhancement in his learning capacity. He estimated his accumulated knowledge had increased at least tenfold compared to his previous existence.
He mused that if he were to take the college entrance examination right now, his scores would undoubtedly surpass those from his past life.
In his previous life, his score on the college entrance examination had been a mere 280 marks, identical to the recent mock exam.
English: 55, Chinese: 77, Mathematics: 40, Science: 108.
If he were to retake the test now, he was confident he could achieve over 90 marks in Chinese. With the approximately 1,600 English vocabulary words he now possessed, he could also secure more than 70 marks for English.
“If I were to take the college entrance examination now, I could score at least 300 points!”
“My destiny has finally begun to shift!” Li Chengqian’s previously anxious face finally broke into a smile.
He then picked up his Year Two English textbook, turned to the vocabulary list, and began reciting them silently.
Vocabulary forms the fundamental structure of English. As long as one mastered all the words and the grammar, the English language would cease to be a formidable challenge.
As he started reciting, Li Chengqian quickly realized that the Year Two vocabulary was incredibly simple!
The Year Three textbooks he had memorized already encompassed the majority of the Year Two words.
In essence, he had already learned the spellings of these words.
All that remained was to commit the meaning and pronunciation of each word to memory to achieve complete mastery.
With 14 points of intelligence, he could rapidly internalize the Year Two vocabulary at a pace of three words per minute.
“Dad, Mom, I won’t let you down again this time! I will not allow the tragedy of my previous life to repeat itself,” Li Chengqian vowed silently in his heart as he immersed himself in his studies.
Reading books could furnish him with Experience Bars and knowledge simultaneously – a truly efficient endeavor!
With only 100 days remaining until the college entrance examination, he refused to squander a single moment. This time, he was determined to astound everyone and deliver a pleasant surprise.
At this precise moment, Liu Daqiang, having overheard Li Chengqian’s declaration of his determination to enter university, approached Li Chengqian’s desk, his expression filled with astonishment.
“Li Chengqian, are you serious? You claim you want to get into university? I recall you only scored 280 marks on the mock exam…” Liu Da Qiang’s face displayed an exaggerated smile.
“With 280 marks, what university could you possibly attend? Can you somehow study at university from home?” Liu Daqiang brazenly boomed. After delivering his taunt, he burst into mocking laughter.
“Haha!” The surrounding students joined in the derision.
While Liu Daqiang’s words were undeniably harsh, given Li Chengqian’s previous academic performance, they regrettably reflected the truth. His delivery, however, was unnecessarily hurtful.
“Liu Daqiang, please stop bothering my studies! While my current score is indeed 280 marks, my performance will significantly improve during the college entrance examination. I will absolutely be admitted to a university,” Li Chengqian declared with unshakeable confidence.
After confirming the reality and efficacy of the abilities within the All-Class Master game, Li Chengqian's ambition had elevated from merely attending an ordinary university to aiming for the nation's premier institution.
Li Chengqian was entirely unfazed by Liu Daqiang’s constant taunts. It was a predictable ritual; after every exam concluded, Liu Daqiang would invariably appear to mock him.
The reason for this animosity was quite simple:
A prior conflict had erupted between him and Liu Daqiang.
The root of their contention was their deskmate and seat neighbor, Jian Qingli!
...
Jian Qingli possessed a striking appearance, being tall, shapely, young, and remarkably beautiful, making her the most captivating girl in their class. Her allure was so potent that even within the prestigious Tianyi High School, she ranked exceptionally high in terms of attractiveness.
Naturally, everyone was drawn to beautiful girls.
Liu Daqiang, hailing from a wealthy family and a good student himself, harbored a long-standing desire to court Jian Qingli.
During their second year of high school, Liu Daqiang had approached Li Chengqian with a request to switch seats.
Li Chengqian had firmly refused.
This refusal stemmed from a promise: Jian Qingli's parents had specifically visited Li Chengqian's home, entrusting him with the responsibility of looking after Jian Qingli.
Consequently, Li Chengqian was determined not to allow Liu Daqiang, whose intentions were clearly ulterior, to get close to Jian Qingli.
In this manner, the two youths became sworn enemies!
From that day forward, whenever the opportunity arose, Liu Daqiang would deliberately belittle and ridicule Li Chengqian, with sarcasm and scorn being his usual weapons.
Upon hearing Li Chengqian's confident words, Liu Daqiang erupted into hysterical laughter, as if he had just been told the most ludicrous joke.
“Li Chengqian, are you actually serious? You, a complete failure who only managed to score a paltry 28 marks in English, are talking about studying? What exactly are you planning to learn! What university do you even imagine yourself attending!”
...
Following this outburst, Liu Daqiang abruptly snatched the Year Two English textbook from Li Chengqian's grasp and proceeded to mock him further, sneering, “Li Chengqian, tell me, aside from the Chinese characters printed on the cover, how many English words do you actually recognize?”
Li Chengqian had only just begun to study the Year Two English book, having held it for barely a minute. While he could vaguely sound out the words, he truly recognized the meaning of only three words in total.
“Li Chengqian, with only 100 days remaining until the college entrance examination, it’s far too late to even consider starting to work hard now!” Witnessing Li Chengqian’s silence, Liu Daqiang’s arrogance swelled even further.
“This year, you stand absolutely no chance of gaining admission to any university!” Liu Daqiang declared with resolute contempt.
Although the other students remained silent, the majority harbored the same sentiment as Liu Daqiang. They all firmly believed that given Li Chengqian’s abysmal academic foundation, no amount of hard work in the remaining year could possibly lead to university admission.
“Liu Daqiang, it’s not your place to decide whether I can pass or not!”
“You’ll discover the truth when the college entrance examination results are announced.”
“For now, I request that you distance yourself from me and cease disrupting my studies.” Li Chengqian’s voice was laced with a chilling coldness. He retrieved the English textbook that Liu Daqiang had snatched and fixed him with an icy glare.
Liu Daqiang was on the verge of retaliating with a furious retort, but as his eyes met Li Chengqian’s frigid gaze, a flicker of fear crept into his heart, causing him to swallow the abusive words that had been poised on his tongue.
“Li Chengqian, such aspirations are confined strictly to your dreams. I sincerely hope you enjoy your fanciful daydreams.”
“There’s really no need to even wait for the college entrance examination; you’ll understand your true capabilities by the time the next monthly examination concludes. You struggle to even reach 200 marks, so gaining university admission is nothing short of a pipe dream.” Liu Daqiang took a couple of steps back, feeling a considerable surge of embarrassment, and could not resist adding one final jab.
