The invigilating teacher froze and took the test paper.
The math and English papers were finished, and Yu He was working on the comprehensive paper, already a quarter of the way through!
In the time of one exam, she had actually completed more than two test papers, and in different subjects?!
Was this something a human could do?
She must have been scribbling randomly!
He had seen many such students who got in through the back door, just pretending to fill out papers and then directly entering Class Eleven.
Thinking this, he dismissively looked at the first multiple-choice question on the math paper.
Although he only taught sports, he still remembered a lot of high school math knowledge.
Answer C, correct.
A blind cat catching a dead mouse!
The second question, select A.
Correct!
Such good luck?
The third question...
Still correct!
The further he read, the more astonished he became. The first third of the multiple-choice questions were all correct; he couldn't be sure about the subsequent long-answer questions.
"You wait here for me," he said, taking the papers and turning to find the subject teachers to grade them.
By this time, school was out for the morning, and teachers and students were heading to lunch in ones and twos.
When the invigilating teacher arrived at the Grade 12 teachers' office, the math teacher for Class 12-1 was locking the office door.
"Teacher Ji, I was just looking for you. Could you spare a moment to help me grade this entrance exam paper?" the invigilating teacher said, handing her the papers.
The math teacher, Ji Yun, had graduated from Harvard University and had been teaching at Kaiwei for ten years, widely recognized as a workaholic.
As soon as she heard about grading papers, her spirits lifted, and she pushed open the office door she was about to lock.
"Certainly. I heard this semester's entrance exam questions were more difficult than usual. The dean's objective is to raise the admission threshold for Kaiwei Academy."
She went to her desk, pushed up her thick glasses, and began grading.
As the number of checks made by her red pen on the test paper increased, the invigilating teacher's face felt increasingly flushed.
It felt like being slapped, a burning red.
"This last long-answer question, the problem-solving approach is very novel, echoing Lu Yucheng's previous problem-solving methods. Excellent, excellent," Ji Yun said, her eyes shining with admiration as she graded further.
"Which school was this student, Yu He, from before?! Is she still at the academy? I'd like to meet her."
She specifically looked at the name on the test paper and then turned to the invigilating teacher, only to find his expression rather strange.
"Teacher Chen, what's wrong? You don't look well."
"N-nothing, so, what was the score on this paper?!" the invigilating teacher swallowed, incredulous.
In the time of half an exam, she had finished the paper, and it was a perfect score?!
What a terrifying student!
Even Lu Yucheng couldn't do this; she just picked it up and got it done!
And just now, his attitude had been so unpleasant!
"150 points, a perfect score!" Ji Yun generously marked the score.
The invigilating teacher's legs suddenly felt weak. "Good, good, this student is still in the exam, I need to go back and check."
Ji Yun's eyes lit up. "She's still here? Quickly, quickly, let's go, I want to meet her too."
When the two returned to the examination hall, Yu He was no longer in the classroom, leaving only two completed test papers pressed down by fountain pens.
Ji Yun carefully picked up the papers and looked at them. The writing was neat, the handwriting delicate, and the problem-solving approaches were novel.
"Quickly send the papers to the respective subject teachers for grading. I have a feeling this student will become the next academic god of our Kaiwei Academy."
Yes, she said 'academic god,' not 'top student.'

When Yu He returned to the Ye family, she saw Ye Jianming sitting in the living room with a darkened face.
Cheng Lizhu was kneeling on the carpet, like a servant who had made a mistake.
Ye Zisu stood to the side, outwardly appearing sad but inwardly gloating and watching the show.
Shattered glass from a broken cup lay on the carpet, and the atmosphere in the room was clearly somewhat oppressive.
"How dare you come back! Who gave you the nerve to skip the exam! Get down on your knees for me!"
Seeing Yu He, Ye Jianming's anger flared up again.
He grabbed an ashtray from the coffee table and hurled it at her.
