The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress

Chapter 224: 084 Dimensional Reduction Strike_1
With his call, a small number of people also came to their senses.

“Is she that good at math?”

“No, which school did she transfer from?!”

“So… so freakish.”

“Now Beicheng High School is going to be interesting…”

Not to mention the homeroom teacher of class eight, even Lu Lingxi was particularly shocked.

Just Bai Lian’s overall ranking in the top 97 was enough to shock people, let alone her Chinese and mathematics scores. “First place,” “perfect score,”—either one would be enough to dominate the field.

Lu Lingxi had always known that Bai Lian was very good at Chinese. This time, the classical Chinese reading was obscure, and the essay was even more bizarre.

Many students in the school misunderstood the meaning of their essay, seriously deviating from the topic.

Bai Lian’s 150 in Chinese was beyond her expectation, but not too surprising, for Bai Lian’s palace-style calligraphy was a significant bonus.

But a 150 in the joint exam for mathematics…

In Xiangcheng, that was simply a science fiction event.

She had always thought that Bai Lian’s math was on par with Ning Xiao. Ning Xiao’s rapid progress in math this time, reaching the top five in Beicheng, had already blown away all the teachers in the office.

And there was Bai Lian, silently dealing everyone a crushing blow.

“Hello?” The principal stopped midway through speaking, and on the other end of the phone, Director Pan, unable to wait for him to finish, couldn’t help but speak up, “Why have you stopped talking?”

That question brought the principal back to reality.

“Director Pan,” the principal began solemnly, “I think, not just possibly, but we really have one this time!”

“I think so too,” Director Pan was also excited, “Ning Xiao has improved too fast. Math in the top five, such a talent is in high demand at Beicheng High School, right?”

If Ning Xiao were a senior, he would definitely make it into the provincial team.

“No,” the principal said after hearing him out, “There’s more news now. Student Bai Lian scored perfect in both Chinese and math, first place.”

As the principal had anticipated.

The voice on the other end of the phone instantly vanished.

Director Pan could be heard breathing hurriedly, “…She scored higher than Song Min?”

“Yes, Song Min got around 130 in math.”

At this moment, not just Xiangcheng High School, but also the people in the Education Bureau office were extraordinarily excited.

Director Pan hung up the phone, his eyes sparkling, “Contact Beicheng Education Bureau, and I remember Jiangjing University has a liberal arts-focused recruitment program, right?”

Since the top scholar from Beicheng was admitted to Jiangjing University last year, it was all over the news.

This year, all major colleges had heard of Song Min, and if there were no dark horses from Beicheng next year, he was the certain top scorer, especially in math.

Before today, no one thought that anyone could surpass him in math.

Yet, Bai Lian rose unexpectedly in this joint exam.

As for poor performance in science? Not a big issue.

Jiangjing University’s liberal arts-focused recruitment program is designed for candidates with uneven academic strengths!

Xiangcheng had never seen anyone admitted to Jiangjing University before, so if they had the first one, they couldn’t even begin to imagine how sensational it would be.

Lu Lingxi printed the results and returned to class fifteen.

The answer sheets were handed in to be scanned by the school, which had not yet been distributed, but their exam papers had not been handed in.

The first period was Lu Lingxi’s Chinese class.

Most of the students did not do well on the Chinese exam, so she did not announce the grades but instead analyzed the papers.

After finishing a period, her mood had finally eased.

She called Bai Lian and Ning Xiao to the office to discuss their scores with them.

This was the principal’s request, to prevent them from getting too excited.

The principal, unable to stop smiling, said, “Students, do you know how much you scored? Ning Xiao, you are fifth in Beicheng for math, and in the overall top thirty! And you, Bai Lian, are even more impressive, first in Beicheng for math…”

He rattled off everything.

But he found the two in front of him unresponsive.

“Oh,” Ning Xiao looked up, his tone quite calm.

Always somber, Ning Xiao raised his eyebrows, emanating an air of melancholy, his voice devoid of any excitement or joy.

Wearing a simple school uniform, Bai Lian with her clear and shallow eyes was more composed than Ning Xiao, “I understand, thank you, Principal.”

Principal:

He couldn’t help but turn to look at Lu Lingxi:

What’s going on here?

“Look, did you two not hear what I said,” the principal tried to explain, “Ning Xiao, you are fifth in math in Beicheng, and Bai Lian, you scored perfect in both Chinese and math, first in Beicheng!”

Ning Xiao turned aloof.

He nodded slightly, showing he understood.

“Yes, perfect in Chinese and math, I heard it, thanks, Principal.” Bai Lian recalled chemical formulas, then replied unhurriedly.

Principal:
