Resurrection Empire-Chapter 1011 - 389: The Academic Genius and Temptation

In the blink of an eye, more than ten minutes passed, and the exam was about to end.

Everyone else had submitted their papers one after another, leaving only Ren Zhong.

The crowd had moved outside the classroom, mostly watching inside with expressions of interest. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

At this moment, Ren Zhong still had his eyes firmly closed, using the Brain Wave Loader to answer the questions. Meanwhile, his right hand was constantly in a middle-finger gesture.

Although others couldn't quite understand the meaning of this gesture, they could certainly sense his defiance.

So, the gesture was definitely not friendly.

Outside, someone chatted with a pout, complaining, "This guy probably had it too easy outside, thinking he's all that, never seeing the true dangers of society."

Someone next to them replied, "It's okay, newcomers should follow newcomer rules. After he suffers a few setbacks, he'll know that no matter what role he played outside, at the Census Official College, he'd better keep a low profile."

"Let's start now," Qin Xiang said, glancing inside at a middle-aged teacher and blinking.

The middle-aged teacher understood, shifted his gaze to his wrist watch, watched the countdown, then suddenly pressed the button, ending the exam.

At that moment, the bell rang to signal the end of class, with perfect timing.

Ren Zhong immediately stood up from his seat, stretched lazily, then put his hands in his pockets and walked out.

Since it was entirely data-driven teaching, at the moment the exam ended, everyone's papers were already graded simultaneously, and the scores were out.

The older students outside stared eagerly at the middle-aged teacher, waiting for him to trouble Ren Zhong. Unexpectedly, even after Ren Zhong left the classroom directly for the restroom, the middle-aged teacher said nothing, merely staring blankly at the screen in front of him.

Other people, full of confusion, walked into the classroom, craning their necks to see from the back.

And there it was, the eye-catching perfect score of 100 at the top, the only one.

The students were all well aware of each other's levels; to mess with Ren Zhong, today's surprise exam was relatively difficult. There were several questions with layers of traps, making them easy to get wrong.

Everyone estimated that getting a 90 would already be good, the average should be around 80, and the lowest wouldn't be below 70. After all, they couldn't let the pitfalls laid out for Ren Zhong trap themselves as well, so the middle-aged teacher included plenty of straightforward questions based on regular knowledge.

Yet, the 100 score was indeed a bit exaggerated.

The first thought that arose in most people's minds was who this guy was, how insidious he got, saying we'd just muddle through together, while secretly striving hard, and then surprising everyone today.

After a few seconds, everyone's eyes gradually shifted to the name further down, all stunned.

Now they knew why the middle-aged teacher had been standing there in a daze.

The perfect score wasn't anyone else but Ren Zhong.

Qin Xiang covered her mouth, murmuring, "This is impossible!"

The others also exclaimed in shock.

Those standing on the outer circle, not knowing what had happened, quickly asked around. Upon learning the answer, they all scratched their heads.

"He cheated! He definitely cheated!"

Someone in the crowd shouted.

The middle-aged teacher raised his eyes and glared, "Don't talk nonsense, cheating is impossible."

At this moment, Ren Zhong, having finished in the restroom, returned with his hands in his pockets.

But he didn't pay attention to the crowd gathered at the door, walking past expressionlessly, then sat back down in his seat, opening his tablet.

The other students and the middle-aged teacher looked at each other, feeling both humiliated and uninterested.

Qin Xiang's eyes shifted, and she tugged at a classmate beside her, and the two of them immediately turned and ran outside.

There were ten minutes before the next class, "Source Star Geography," so there was time for another try.

After the second class began, Ren Zhong indeed faced a second surprise exam.

This time, after completing their answers, no one submitted early. Instead, they all stayed at their seats, watching Ren Zhong closely to prevent cheating.

But the final result was much the same as before: Ren Zhong first buried himself in his books, then started answering fifteen minutes before the exam ended, ultimately passing with a perfect score, without any surprises, just like how the sun always rises in the east.

Everyone was bewildered.

By now, it was lunchtime; Ren Zhong refused Qin Xiang's offer to accompany him and walked out of the classroom alone, heading straight to the school's most expensive VIP cafeteria.

Even though his Citizen Level wasn't high, only Seventh Level, he had quite a bit of money on him.

The Association was rebuilding the currency system with Source Star Coins. Now controlling four cities, more than ten counties, and over a hundred towns, Ren Zhong was among the first to become wealthy.
