Chapter 90
Chapter 90: Unstable Morale
At this question, Wen Yu chuckled.
“At least 70%, teacher.”
Chen Xiongguo chuckled, “So high, are you confident or just arrogant?”
“It could be 80%.”
“How certain are you?”
“90%, for sure.”
“You’re kidding me.”
Wen Yu said seriously, “Teacher, how could I dare to joke with you? 70% is my confidence, 90% is my goal. I haven’t forgotten about this matter; I’ve been keeping it in mind.”
“You sure can talk.” Chen Xiongguo’s anger dissipated unknowingly. He picked up the tea cup but didn’t drink. “Anyway, no matter how much you say now, if I don’t see an actual improvement in the final exam, you know the consequences.”
He said coldly, “You just heard me criticize those four girls. It’s already late, and their minds aren’t on studying. Is this appropriate?”
“This is not appropriate, teacher,” Wen Yu immediately replied.
“Hmm…”
Chen Xiongguo sighed inwardly. This student Wen Yu was satisfying in this regard: he dared to speak up, and if what he said was appropriate, Chen Xiongguo would accept it.
Sometimes, people’s moods work like this: if you accept what I say, I’ll be easier to deal with.
Just now, when he asked the four girls, not one of them said a word, which only made him angrier the more he spoke.
He turned to the four girls and issued a final ultimatum: “Listen up, if your grades don’t improve in the final exam, I will rearrange your seats next semester. Whoever regresses, I will transfer them out!”
After that, he glanced specifically at Fu Chengque and said, “Fu Chengque, especially you! Alright, go back to class.”
The group returned to the classroom and resumed the lesson.
But the four girls were somewhat dazed, probably half of their minds daydreaming and the other half focused on studying.
Fu Chengque hesitated.
No one knew that she actually had a seemingly powerful skill [God-tier Upgrade: Beyond Limits]. These past few days, she had been using her exceptionally sharp mind to carefully consider this skill. Although she understood it well, she hadn’t found a suitable way to use it.
The three special effects, “Whole-body Reaction Speed,” “Memory Enhancement Ability,” and “Body Recovery Speed,” all seemed powerful but had limitations.
That is, continuous recitation of her name “Fu Chengque” by someone was needed to provide sustained bonuses.
But when should she use it, and who would frequently recite her name?
Her dad or her mom?
And what exactly does a 0.1 enhancement mean?
It was very vague and difficult to understand.
For example, the memory enhancement ability, can it be used now?
To enhance her own academic performance, otherwise, neglecting the courses from the previous period could significantly lower her final grades.
Her friends were all around her now, and she cherished the atmosphere during this period so much. It was so good, so worth cherishing.
Just the thought of everyone scattered around the corners of the classroom next semester, making it difficult to even catch a glimpse, made her heart ache just thinking about it.
Can she use it?
Should she use it?
She was particularly hesitant.
Xiao Gua felt a bit panicked.
Being criticized by the teacher, being noticed by the teacher.
Although not expelled, this feeling of being watched by the teacher made her even more nervous, and even the fear of studying began to creep back…
Not to mention others, if her grades alone dropped significantly because of this, then she would definitely be transferred to avoid affecting others’ studies.
No, she didn’t want that at all.
What should she do? Should she continue to let Wen Yu and Lu Min reinforce her basics in the second and third year?
But they were also criticized by the teacher. With the university entrance examination approaching, who really had so much free time to teach others?
And time…
Was it enough?
She was really panicking.
Lu Min felt somewhat powerless.
If the grades didn’t improve, Chen Xiongguo would definitely follow through with his words.
But her own grades had been stagnant for a long time. Every time she took an exam, she wanted to make progress, but it always turned out contrary to her wishes.
She improved last time, but the time before last, she regressed severely. And the time before that, she improved again, but looking further back, she regressed.
Like an unshakeable nightmare, tormenting her repeatedly.
Since joining this group, she gradually transitioned from studying alone to the relaxed and cheerful atmosphere, making her feel relaxed while reading and doing exercises. So she didn’t want, absolutely didn’t want this group to disband.
But… considering her own situation was already difficult enough, trying to help others—
She sincerely felt a bit powerless.
Fang Ling felt somewhat nervous.
In a state of neither here nor there, although her grades seemed to be improving recently, who could say for sure that they would definitely continue to improve in the final exam?
And, even she could tell that their achievements improved because of Wen Yu and Lu Min’s proactive teaching. Without them, nothing!
She was ordinary, without much presence, and with such talent, she was already happy to see an improvement in her grades in the late stage of the third year. But to guarantee further progress in the final exam…
She had no confidence, none at all.
It’s hard!
Too hard!
The nervousness in her heart grew stronger.
Among this group of people, only Wen Yu’s expression remained relatively normal.
He felt surrounded by a low-pressure system, looked around, and saw several girls with worried expressions, understanding roughly what was going on.
He couldn’t help but complain about Chen Xiongguo in his heart: This little circle had finally created an atmosphere of mutual help and support for learning, and it was almost destroyed in an instant!
He didn’t immediately speak up. It wasn’t until the end of the afternoon class, after they had finished dinner and returned to the classroom to wait for the evening self-study, that he took the initiative to start a conversation through the group chat on his phone.
【Queen’s First Harem】(5)
【Wen Yu】: Really? Are you all scared now?
【Wen Yu】: Just because Chen Xiongguo scared you a few times, you’re all this scared? All the previous improvements in grades were for nothing?
In the classroom, Fu Chengque and the others glanced at Wen Yu.
It’s strange, even though everyone is in the classroom, they’re still using their phones? But no one spoke, instead they all lowered their heads and tapped on their phones.
【Fu Chengque】: Nonsense! I’m not afraid of anything! I have a secret technique, this time I’ll definitely be in the top three of the class [Proud Cat]
【Fu Chengque】: Just wait for me to surpass you! Hahaha
【Wen Yu】: What secret technique? Teach me?
【Fu Chengque】: This can’t be taught, the secret technique only works for me. [Proud Cat]
【Lu Min】: I feel like I’ve reached my limit, it’s too difficult to improve further…
【Fang Ling】: I don’t know if I can improve…
【Fang Ling】: When you don’t ask me, I’m fine, but when you do, I get extremely nervous
【Fang Ling】: When I’m nervous, my studying efficiency drops drastically
【Xiao Gua】: Me too, me too
【Xiao Gua】: Sometimes I’m afraid of studying…
【Fu Chengque】: @Wen Yu, Chief Advisor, the morale of the soldiers under my command is so low, think of a solution quickly!
【Wen Yu】: Then there’s no choice, this military advisor offers a suggestion! (Hands over the suggestion)
【Fu Chengque】: (Opens it)
【Fu Chengque】: Wow! It’s actually this strategy (amazed face)
【Wen Yu】: Indeed, it’s this strategy! (stroking beard)
【Fu Chengque】: Chief Advisor, quickly explain (excited tone)
【Wen Yu】: I’ll help you catch up with the progress.
【Wen Yu】: I’m confident of being first in the final exam, so currently, I have the strength to be second
【Wen Yu】: From now on, add half an hour of study every noon, I’ll teach you guys; on Sundays, come to my house or Fu’s house, I’ll host an intense study session for a day, in half a month’s time, there will be improvement!
【Wen Yu】: Let me, the TOP, lead you all to ascend!
【Wen Yu】: Don’t worry, we will soar in the final exam!
【Fu Chengque】: Are you this confident?
【Wen Yu】: Absolutely
【Fu Chengque】: Thanks, but you’ll have to die
【Wen Yu】: Why?
【Fu Chengque】: You called us little chickens and little dogs!
【Xiao Gua】: You called us little chickens and little dogs!
【Fang Ling】: You called us little chickens and little dogs!
【Lu Min】: You called us little chickens and little dogs!
【Wen Yu】: ?
In the classroom, the four girls were originally bowing their heads. Seeing Wen Yu’s question mark, they all raised their heads and looked at each other.
After a brief silence, they suddenly burst into laughter.
“Haha—”
“Hahahaha……”
Wen Yu also looked around, and finally smiled.
