"Chu Fei!"
With a furious roar, Li Honggang stood in front of Chu Fei, glaring angrily. Lu Hong followed and stood at Chu Fei's side.
Chu Fei leisurely packed up his desk and slowly walked to Li Honggang, calmly asking, "What's the matter?"
Li Honggang roared, "Why did you hand in your paper early?!"
Chu Fei handing in the test early directly affected Li Honggang's performance. Forget the mistakes—there were several corrections on his paper.
Thinking that as class monitor he should set an example, Li Honggang felt his heart tremble.
Lu Hong looked at Chu Fei and said solemnly, "Chu Fei, what you did hurt everyone."
Chu Fei glanced at Lu Hong and smiled, "Can't hand in the test early? Strange, I didn't know that!"
As Chu Fei spoke, he stepped forward and shouted at Li Honggang blocking the way, "Move!"
Li Honggang instantly exploded, "You deserve a beating!"
The thirteen-year-old boy didn't hesitate and punched Chu Fei's face.
Chu Fei's figure flickered, easily dodging the attack and countered with a punch to Li Honggang.
With a painful scream, Li Honggang covered his face and crouched down.
Chu Fei kicked Li Honggang's shoulder, sending him rolling on the ground.
By now, many classmates had gathered to watch.
Chu Fei originally planned to leave gracefully but suddenly noticed Lu Hong's calm expression and stopped, adding:
"If you two want to stand up for the classmates, you should ask the teacher and set rules clearly, not make private agreements.
What if your private agreement affects everyone's learning, even their cultivation? Can you two take responsibility for that?
Or did you never even think about this!"
The angry classmates suddenly froze, their gazes shifting between Lu Hong and Li Honggang.
Chu Fei smiled lightly and finally left with style.
"Just wait!"
"Let's see how you deal with this!"
Back in the dorm, Chu Fei didn't rest immediately. Instead, he used a drop of Wisdom Dew to start meditation and mental training.
A good habit takes half a month to form and just start to take root.
Now, Chu Fei had almost formed this good habit.
In his consciousness space, 300 different triangles and quadrilaterals kept intersecting, trying to piece together large patterns.
Every combination was a calculation.
After days of intense calculation, Chu Fei came to a conclusion:
Combining 300 shapes involved complex calculations that could no longer be solved by simple brute force.
Introducing logical computation was inevitable.
But previous calculations weren't wasted—they provided large amounts of data, experience, and mental training.
In these calculations, Chu Fei applied the logical methods taught by his teacher.
Discrete analysis, inductive analysis, abstract analysis, constructive analysis...
Two hours passed without noticing. Chu Fei checked the results, smiled slightly, and fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, after breakfast, Chu Fei took out the book Captain Huang had given him and read again.
Seeing the seven drops of Wisdom Dew accumulated around the Wisdom Tree Seed, Chu Fei didn't hesitate to use one.
All the usual accumulation was for critical moments like this.
His consciousness ascended, and Chu Fei flipped through the pages almost at a speed reading level.
Two hours later, the effect of the Wisdom Dew faded, but Chu Fei immediately used another drop.
Only when the alarm rang did Chu Fei slowly lift his head. The second drop still had 30% effect left, but it was almost 11 o'clock—the time to check the test results.
Chu Fei arrived at the classroom and met the homeroom teacher Cao Liwen.
Cao Liwen held the test papers and said softly, "Right on time."
Chu Fei awkwardly smiled and was about to walk to his seat.
Unexpectedly, Cao Liwen pulled him to the front, "No need to go back."
Cao Liwen placed the test papers on the desk, arranged as usual—three groups, one horizontal and two vertical, crossing each other.
Looking at this, Chu Fei thought of three words: a cross.
Chu Fei had been at Dawnlight Academy for over three weeks and had a basic understanding:
The teachers were excellent and responsible. Finding such an academy in the apocalypse was truly lucky—if judged only by faculty.
However, Dawnlight Academy firmly believed "learning ability can be squeezed" and strictly enforced this, with harsh measures.
Chu Fei suddenly thought of four words: the whip method.
Lost in thought, Cao Liwen spoke:
"First, an announcement. We test potential once every four weeks. Next Sunday morning will be the second test. Prepare yourselves."
Chu Fei's heart sank.
Dawnlight Academy really put "scores determine students' fate" into practice. Everything was decided by points.
Then Cao Liwen began calling names.
The first group remained Chu Fei, Li Honggang, Lu Hong, and Zhang Xuan.
Zhang Xuan got two questions wrong, lost 6 points, made two corrections, and received 8 slaps on the hand.
Li Honggang lost 8 points, corrected 5 mistakes. As class monitor, his punishment doubled to 26 slaps?
Cao Liwen said kindly, "You have a choice: 26 slaps on the hand with no treatment or 13 lashes with treatment."
Li Honggang gritted his teeth, "The second!"
The whip-bearer approached, the small whip flicked cheerfully. Li Honggang grunted but still glanced at Chu Fei.
Chu Fei lowered his eyes.
Then Lu Hong took 9 lashes.
Finally, all eyes turned to Chu Fei.
Cao Liwen took out a stack of fine "metal papers" and picked four, placing them before Chu Fei.
"Four hundred yuan! I said, if you make a mistake, punishment is quadrupled; if no mistake, the reward is quadrupled."
Chu Fei beamed and quickly thanked him.
"No need to thank, it's what you deserve. Go back."
Feeling the burning gazes of Li Honggang and Lu Hong, Chu Fei suddenly said, "Teacher, I want to ask something."
Cao Liwen nodded, "Go ahead."
Chu Fei said, "After the exam last night, the class monitor and vice monitor blocked me at the door, saying I couldn't hand in the test early, which made everyone uneasy. Please set a rule."
Chu Fei didn't name Li Honggang or Lu Hong but said "class monitor and vice monitor" and "uneasy."
Li Honggang and Lu Hong's faces went pale.
This backstab was precise and sharp!
Cao Liwen glanced at them and smiled slightly, but it was a dangerous smile, "Do you two have a better suggestion?"
The two dared not say a word.
Cao Liwen's face suddenly turned cold, "This must not happen again! You four may leave."
Chu Fei walked out of the classroom with Li Honggang and Lu Hong behind him. After leaving, the two snorted coldly and headed for the medical room.
Chu Fei went to the cafeteria first, ate quickly, then returned to the dorm to rest a bit before taking the book Captain Huang gave him and heading straight to the Dawnlight Battle Team at the foot of the mountain.
At the gate, he saw Huang Gang practicing punches, exuding killing intent.
"Here you are." Huang Gang stopped, "How much of the book I gave you have you read?"
"All of it!" Chu Fei set the books aside.
Huang Gang frowned slightly and asked a few casual questions. Chu Fei answered fluently.
"You memorized it all?" Huang Gang looked surprised, "This noon Officer Cao even said you got a perfect score this week!!!"
Chu Fei smiled but said nothing.
Silence said more than words.
Huang Gang took a deep breath and smiled brightly, "Looks like I found a treasure! Good, let's go to the shooting range."
