Chapter 941 - 940: Counting Down to the Top Scholar of the College Entrance Exam?
The boy’s words provoked another round of laughter from the crowd, most of them mocking Su Yang.
Su Yang’s reputation was spread mostly among the large families and influential powers; not many in the school knew of it. Though the students in the class knew Su Yang could fight and had some other skills, they were unaware of the true extent of his abilities.
Moreover, Su Yang often skipped school, and when he did show up, he uttered such bold statements, naturally displeasing many.
In everyone’s view, Su Yang was only relying on his family background, which many looked down upon. They believed that family background was simply a matter of good fortune and being born into a good family; what mattered most was one’s own capabilities.
The Gaokao, such an exam, was a test of one’s own abilities. Your family’s background may be prominent enough to get you a direct invitation to study at one of the three top universities. But can they get you a perfect score? Can they make you the top Gaokao scorer?
So, deep down, people were jealous of Su Yang, which then turned into such mockery.
Su Yang remained calm. He naturally wouldn’t use the same approach on these diligent students, whom he typically dealt with differently from the children of wealthy families. These good students didn’t have many ill intentions; they only disliked seeing someone reaping benefits without working for them. This time, Su Yang was determined to teach them a lesson and make them understand that one should never underestimate others!
"I won’t attend foreign universities, but I might as well try out the domestic ones!" Su Yang said with a light smile, looking at Zhao Qiupeng, "Old Zhao, tell me, if I become the Gaokao top scorer of our province, don’t you think the domestic universities would let me choose whichever one I want?"
The crowd burst into laughter, everyone laughing so hard they bent over, as if they had heard some ridiculously funny joke.
