The Ultra-Alpha School Hunk Has Transmigrated into a Cannon Fodder Omega! - Chapter 13

The Academic Representative was the first to step forward. He asked Ji Cenzhou, “Can you show me your transcript from the end of your freshman year?”

Ji Cenzhou thought for a moment and remembered that the transcript was tucked inside his notebook. He took it out and handed it to the representative.

Everyone crowded around to take a look.

Wang Hao arrived a step late and shouted over the crowd, “How are his grades? I think they should be pretty good. This morning, I even borrowed his biology homework to copy. It was packed with notes, and the handwriting was very neat.”

Those who heard this immediately looked at Ji Cenzhou’s biology score.

46 points.

The atmosphere fell into an eerie silence.

Everyone looked at Wang Hao and then at Ji Cenzhou with complicated expressions. They thought to themselves that one was truly brave enough to lend it, and the other was brave enough to copy it.

Wang Hao also saw the biology score through a gap in the crowd. It was as if someone had squeezed his throat; he was instantly silenced.

After a few seconds, he murmured, “He shouldn’t have such a low score. He wrote so much, and it looked so good.”

Ji Cenzhou did not explain. Before the actual results came out, any words would be hollow.

The Academic Representative called a few people over to study Ji Cenzhou’s grades at their desks. When those students stood up, they bore the meaningful gazes of their classmates and nodded solemnly. They looked as though they carried the hopes of the entire village. Because of Ji Cenzhou, the students who had only recently become a class were suddenly united.

Those gathered around the representative were the top students in each subject. The best among them sat right behind Ji Cenzhou.

Jiang Mosen watched the Academic Representative and a few others seriously formulate a study plan for Ji Cenzhou. Their expressions were as grave as if they were discussing affairs of state. He found himself rarely interested and walked over to interject, “Is there anything you need me to do?”

The representative saw the top student in the entire grade standing behind him. His face turned red with excitement, and he stammered, “Please just supervise us!”

Jiang Mosen was speechless. He felt there was really no need for such formal titles.

After Jiang Mosen sat back down, he saw that Ji Cenzhou was reading seriously. Beside him, Bai Yu had also started studying for some reason. Even his own seatmate, Wang Hao, for whom studying was usually a death sentence, was working hard.

Jiang Mosen asked, “Why are you studying too?”

Wang Hao did not even stop his pen. He told Jiang Mosen indignantly, “I didn’t make a bet with ‘Old Man Gloom’, but I want him to know that I am not stupid. My family has good genes. I won’t grow up to be social trash. He has no right to personally attack me!”

After speaking, Wang Hao paused and showed his workbook to Jiang Mosen. “Can you explain this problem to me? I can’t find the knowledge point for this in the textbook. Is this an advanced question beyond the syllabus?”

Jiang Mosen looked at the problem and then at the book Wang Hao was pointing to. He said, “You are doing a chemistry problem. It would be a miracle if you found the corresponding knowledge point in a biology book.”

Wang Hao was speechless.

Ji Cenzhou read for a while and then took out a piece of paper to calculate the scores. Currently, the score for the 100th rank in the grade was 595. He would only have a chance to enter the top 100 if he surpassed that score. According to the bet with ‘Old Man Gloom’, he would enter the top 100 even if he left his physics paper blank. This meant his total score would come from a maximum of 650 points. To exceed the target, he could not lose more than 50 points in total.

The difficulty was quite high.

Ji Cenzhou sketched and calculated the potential points he could lose on the paper. After calculating, he felt he had a better grasp of the situation. Once he had a plan, he was not as panicked when he started working. At least he knew which direction to work toward.

If he followed his grades from before he traveled into the book and removed the physics course, he could probably score around 570 points. There was a gap, but it was not large. Ji Cenzhou felt slightly more relaxed and took out his book to continue reading.

The Academic Representative had roughly discussed a study plan. When Ji Cenzhou looked at it, he saw the content was quite basic. Some subjects even started from middle school knowledge points.

Ji Cenzhou had a bit of a headache. He did not want to let down the representative’s kindness, but this material was truly useless to him. He could only say, “I am more used to reading on my own. If I have questions, I will come to you. After all, I know myself best. This way, the review will be more targeted and the efficiency will be higher. What do you think?”

The representative thought about it and felt that what Ji Cenzhou said made a lot of sense. He said, “Alright then. If you have any problems, do not keep them to yourself. You can find me anytime. I can usually solve most problems.”

As he spoke, he saw Jiang Mosen behind Ji Cenzhou. Feeling that his words were a bit too bold in front of the top student in the grade, he added sheepishly, “You can also ask Brother Jiang. I am not as good as he is.”

Jiang Mosen, who was doing problems behind them, stopped his pen and revealed a smile. “Yes, you can come to me.”

Ji Cenzhou thought to himself that he would rather not. Jiang Mosen should just focus on explaining problems to his “fated partner.”

The events of the afternoon quickly reached Xu Lei. Before school ended, Xu Lei asked Ji Cenzhou to come to his office.

Bai Yu was worried when he heard this. He asked, “Do you need me to accompany you?”

Ji Cenzhou shook his head nonchalantly and said, “No, it won’t help if you go.”

Bai Yu argued, “How could it be useless? If I go, at least I can get scolded along with you.”

Ji Cenzhou was speechless. He wondered if Bai Yu had some strange tendencies.

Ji Cenzhou knew Bai Yu was concerned about him, so he softened his tone to comfort him. “Do you think the homeroom teacher looks like the type of person who scolds people? Don’t worry, your Brother Ji has a very strong psychological state. Even if Teacher Xu scolds me, it will just go in one ear and out the other. I won’t care.”

Seeing Ji Cenzhou’s firm attitude, Bai Yu could only let him go.

When Ji Cenzhou knocked and entered, Xu Lei was the only one in the office. The other teachers had already gone home.

Xu Lei saw Ji Cenzhou arrive, smiled, and waved him over, gesturing for him to sit on the stool in front of him.

After Ji Cenzhou sat down, he saw Xu Lei move aside his large tea mug filled with wolfberry tea. Then, as if performing a magic trick, he pulled out several snacks from his drawer, including sunflower seeds.

Ji Cenzhou stared at the seeds for a few seconds. He felt Teacher Xu Lei’s style was truly magical realism. Was the teacher planning to hold a tea party with him?

Xu Lei smiled and said to Ji Cenzhou, “Eat. I just bought these. You don’t have to worry about being seen. I chased all the other teachers home.”

Ji Cenzhou was speechless. He picked up an orange as a gesture, peeled it, and ate a slice. It was quite sweet.

Xu Lei looked Ji Cenzhou up and down and felt that he was in a good state. He breathed a sigh of relief. He took a sip of tea before slowly saying, “I heard you had a conflict with Teacher Liu Qi this afternoon?”

Ji Cenzhou nodded.

Xu Lei asked again, “You also made a bet with him that you would leave your physics paper blank for the monthly exam?”

Ji Cenzhou replied, “More or less.”

Xu Lei’s expression suddenly became serious. “I think there is a big problem with your approach.”

Ji Cenzhou had already expected Xu Lei to lecture him, so he nodded obediently.

Seeing Ji Cenzhou’s good attitude in admitting his mistake, Xu Lei asked, “Do you know what you did wrong?”

Ji Cenzhou said, “I should not have talked back to the teacher.”

Xu Lei’s expression became serious again. He shook his head and said, “Your mistake is not just that.”

Ji Cenzhou was stunned for a moment. “Then where is my mistake?”

Xu Lei said gravely, “You should not use your grades to bet with others. That is being irresponsible to yourself.”

Ji Cenzhou was completely stunned. He had not expected Xu Lei to say this to him.

Seeing Ji Cenzhou’s dazed expression, Xu Lei softened his tone. “A person has to play many roles in life, carry many responsibilities, and be responsible for many things and many people. But in the final analysis, the person we should be most responsible for is ourselves. Therefore, never use your life as a bet. I am not judging right or wrong in this matter, but I want you to understand one point. Your life is your own. In the future, do not act on impulse. This is not only being irresponsible to yourself but also to the people who care about you.”

Ji Cenzhou nodded. He thought to himself that Xu Lei was truly an enlightened teacher. Whether before or after he traveled into the book, no one had ever said these things to him.

Seeing Ji Cenzhou’s very good attitude, Xu Lei softened his tone even more and asked, “Have you encountered any problems in your studies lately? I heard you bet with Teacher Liu Qi to reach the top 100 in the grade. Do you need me to help you tutor your Chinese?”

Ji Cenzhou looked at Xu Lei with surprise and asked, “Do you want me to win against Teacher Liu Qi?”

Xu Lei smiled. Although he did not speak, his attitude was fully evident.

After Ji Cenzhou finished talking with Xu Lei, he returned to his classroom.

Although it was past school hours, there were still many students in the class. As soon as Ji Cenzhou entered, he saw Bai Yu sitting in his seat holding his backpack. His expression was serious, and his posture was as straight as a primary school student.

When Bai Yu saw Ji Cenzhou return, he quickly walked up and asked nervously, “Did Xu Lei scold you? Did he say anything unpleasant?”

Ji Cenzhou shook his head.

Bai Yu was even more shocked and asked, “Did he actually hit you?”

Ji Cenzhou shook his head and said, “He said many meaningful things to me. Finally, he told me that if I want to win, he can help me tutor my Chinese.”

Bai Yu was stunned for a few seconds before saying in shock, “Teacher Xu Lei is truly special. This is the first time I have seen such an enlightened teacher.”

Bai Yu suddenly slapped his forehead and said to Ji Cenzhou, “My brain! I almost forgot the main business. While you were looking for Teacher Xu Lei, the Academic Representative organized a donation for you.”

“A donation?” Ji Cenzhou almost doubted his own ears.

Bai Yu nodded and pointed to the stack of reference books on Ji Cenzhou’s desk that was as high as a person. He said to Ji Cenzhou, “These are from everyone.”

Ji Cenzhou looked at the pile of books and took a deep breath. He suddenly felt the fear of being dominated by schoolwork.

With so many books, were they trying to work him to death?
