Chapter 560: Chapter 318 Feeling Like Using Different Materials to Build a House_2

"Psst, psst—"

Since it was still self-study time in the evening, Lin Li had to make a sound like this after coming out from the back door of the classroom, trying to catch Chen Yu Ying’s attention.

Zhang Haoyang heard the noise, turned his head, and upon seeing Lin Li, smiled and reached out to give him a high-five: "Damn, you’re here too."

Missed—Lin Li ignored him.

After walking past, Lin Li turned back: "Hmm, Haoyang, did you just talk to me?"

"No, I never talk to sword graves," Zhang Haoyang smiled and shook his head.

Lin Li giggled. It was too far away, and Chen Yu Ying didn’t hear it either, so he didn’t continue to speed up. Instead, he put his arm around Zhang Haoyang’s shoulders and asked:

"Haoyang, which of the three little pigs from the north do you think is the smart one who’d build a house with bricks?"

Zhang Haoyang: "?"

...

Office.

Since the midterms just ended, and today was Monday when teachers had meetings, almost all teachers were in the office today.

In addition, there were a few students, moving chairs to squeeze into a spot, using red pens to mark test papers.

Helping teachers grade test papers was also a privilege of good students.

Back in primary and junior high school, Lin Li, who was doing pretty well, was envious of these people; once they finished, they’d enjoy the feeling of being the focus—many classmates would ask if they knew how many points they got.

"So, everyone’s here, right." As Lin Li and Zhang Haoyang walked over and stood next to Xue Jian, Xue Jian glanced sideways while saying something unnecessary.

"I asked you guys here to see whether you have any intention of participating in a competition." Xue Jian didn’t beat around the bush and got straight to the point.

"We received a notice from the city’s mathematics society during today’s meeting; the second Math Wisdom Cup competition is about to begin, and they want us to organize the registration details."

"The Math Wisdom Cup is a city-level competition, a new one that started last year. The difficulty isn’t high. Freshmen have their own group, and the competition content mainly revolves around the high school required curriculum. Of course, it’s definitely harder than our regular exams; the last question in usual exams might only rank about fourth or fifth from the last on the test paper.

Additionally, 30% involves elective or extended types of questions. While our parallel class usually doesn’t cover competition content, there’s no need to worry about this 30%.

After registering, the school will organize Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday nights using one or one-and-a-half periods of self-study time to provide guidance related to the competition.

After passing the school selection exam, before the official competition, there will also be specialized training organized on Sunday afternoons."

"The school has quotas, so neither registration nor the additional organized teaching incurs any costs.

The school selection and preliminary contests will be held at our Nansang Middle School. The finals will be at a few middle schools in Pingjiang. The school will cover transportation, food, and accommodation, so you don’t have to worry. After the exam, the school will also arrange a group outing for everyone to relax.

As long as you win, a city-level third prize or above will be recorded in the comprehensive quality evaluation, and the school will also give some incentives internally. Also, just participating, this experience will have reference value for future strength-based plan applications."

Having talked too much, Xue Jian felt a bit parched and took a sip of water to refresh his throat before continuing:

"You guys are some of the best at math in the class. Even in the competition class, you’re still excellent; you’re good students."

His gaze swept across Chen Yu Ying, Wang Yuezhi, Zhuo Yongfei, and Zhang Haoyang, pausing for a moment on Zhang Haoyang before nodding and looking back.

—Zhang, Zhuo, Wang, Chen.

"There are definitely more in the competition class who can’t beat you guys," Xue Jian’s gaze finally rested on Zhang Haoyang’s face as he spoke.

Lin Li: "(•́へ•́╬)?"

Moshi moshi, Teacher Xue, could you take a look at me?

Oh well, I don’t want to emphasize it myself, but I scored a hundred and fifty in math, and these three stink bugs and one fragrant bug next to me, the good students you mention, only got 140+ oh~~

Didn’t you hear? Old Jian, my math is a full hundred and fifty! It’s 150! Full marks!

Red Stone! Old Deng! Every time your gaze reaches Zhang Haoyang, why do you immediately stop? I think you’re really getting senile! I’m angry!

"So, the teacher thinks that as long as you participate and seriously learn, it shouldn’t be a problem for you to enter the finals."

Even though Yu Guang noticed the warm reminder, Xue Jian ignored the risk and continued explaining:

"Plus, even if you don’t get in, learning some competition knowledge and accumulating competition experience will benefit your future, considering it’s cost-free."

"If self-study at night is taken up, and you can’t finish your daily homework, first of all, you can skip your math homework directly; I won’t mind. As for homework in other subjects, I’ll talk to those teachers on your behalf."

"Of course, whether to participate is up to you. The teacher won’t force you. You don’t need to give an answer now. Think about it yourself, and you can let me know by Sunday if you want to join. The tutoring will officially start next week."

"The teacher called you here just to discuss this. If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask now."

Lin Li raised his hand.

Xue Jian was a bit hesitant.

"Lin Li, speak."

"Teacher, can you just look at me? Just once, I beg you."

Damn it, knew it, shouldn’t have asked.

"Next question." But Xue Jian benevolently glanced at Lin Li, then continued to look at the other four.

Oh damn, why is Xue Jian so mean? Really just one look.

Seeing the other four looking at each other but remaining silent, Xue Jian nodded: "If there are no questions now, just go back to continue your evening self-study. If you have questions later, come find the teacher."
