Ling Yun parked his car at a remote place near Qingshui High before walking to school. Instead of walking through the main gate, he jumped over a wall where no one was around.
"Damn it! I'm merely coming to school, so why do I have to act like I'm stealing something… It has really been a long time!"
Ling Yun jumped over a wall near the field because it was the closest place to his classroom. When he saw the lively students exercising on the field, he couldn't help but sigh.
Indeed, it had been a really long time. Ever since he made a ruckus in the principal's office, Ling Yun had never stepped into Grade 12 Class 6. It had been over a month since that incident.
It was May 22nd, and there was still about half a month until the college entrance examinations. Half a month meant two weeks, and Ling Yun wanted to spend the next two weeks in school.
Zhang Ling was clear when she told Ling Yun that his heaven-defying ability to remember things wasn't going to be enough to get him into a university. This was true even for humanities. For English, there was listening comprehension, and essay writing for Chinese. Moreover, for History and Politics, there would be a few comprehension and analysis questions, which all required focused revision.
Ling Yun's problem wasn't that he couldn't remember anything but the fact that he could remember almost everything. Knowing too much would result in a problem whereby he had no idea how to apply or use that knowledge.
Examples of that would be essays for languages, as well as the analysis and comprehension questions for History and Politics.
Take Politics, for example. Every country's politics would be based on their own governance, and the college entrance examinations would be testing on that. What happened when someone's thought process went against the explanation in the politics textbook?
Imagine if the question in the test was "How to protect, strengthen, and unify a country's political power?" Ling Yun's answer would be along the lines of, the strongest becomes the king!
This would result in zero marks!
One had to answer the questions based on the textbook and what teachers taught instead of answering it based on their own thought process and ideology.
This was how to score a high score, and this was an example of exam-oriented education.
Ling Yun understood this point, and he was willing to compromise his own beliefs just to score well for his examinations.
Disregarding all kinds of shocking stares and emotions, Ling Yun strolled through the field towards the east block, climbed the stairs, and entered his classroom extremely calmly.
"Ling Yun is back in school!"
When students of Grade 12 Class 6 saw that Ling Yun returned back to the classroom, all of them were incredibly emotional. Every one of them stood up from their seats and fixed their stares on Ling Yun.
Ling Yun did whatever he felt like doing, so after entering the classroom, he stood at the entrance and smiled at everyone. He swept his gaze across the classroom.
He saw Miao Xiaomiao, Zhang Ling, Long Wu, Zhang Dong, Chai Hanlin, Gu Yuanlong, Sha Guoxing, Jia Gu… and even Cheng Zhiye.
There were over forty students in the class, but Ling Yun was only able to call out the names of these people. Up until today, he was still not very familiar with the majority of his classmates.
As Ling Yun's gaze swept across the classroom, he stopped for a moment on Miao Xiaomiao, Zhang Ling, as well as Long Wu. In fact, he even used his telepathic skills to greet them in secret.
Following that, Ling Yun returned to the back corner of the classroom. He intentionally squeezed from the back of Long Wu to sit in his seat.
After that, he was completely stunned!
"This… What is this plaything?" Ling Yun looked at his own desk drawer and saw that it was stuffed with letters. Many letters couldn't even fit into the drawer anymore, and there was a pile of letters under his desk. The pile was so thick that Ling Yun didn't even have any space to place his legs.
Long Wu snickered as she replied, "Stupid! Those are love letters, love letters that you received…"
"What…" Ling Yun was stunned because he didn't expect such things to still exist in this day and age. If someone liked him, she should have told him directly. What was the point of writing a love letter?
"Hey, Long Wu, why didn't you throw them away for me?" Ling Yun was slightly irritated as he wondered why Long Wu wasn't jealous at all. Did the sun rise from the west today?
Long Wu smiled and shook her head in a shy manner. "A love letter is a person's kind feelings. How can I throw away something that is for you… that's just rude!"
Ling Yun nodded, agreeing with Long Wu's point. After that, he started sweeping all the love letters together before storing them in his spatial ring. He didn't leave a single letter behind.
This time, Long Wu didn't look too pleased.
She extended her delicate arm as she pinched Ling Yun's waist sneakily. "You really kept them all?"
"A love letter is a person's kind feelings…" Ling Yun smiled as he replied.
"Tsk! I'll get back at you tonight!" Long Wu stared viciously at Ling Yun as she said, "Hurry up and revise your work!"
Just like that, Ling Yun started his first day of revision. With his mighty divine sense and his Yin-Yang Eye, he flipped books at an incredible speed and managed to memorize everything that he read.
Long Wu didn't know about Ling Yun's divine sense and Yin-Yang Eye, so she thought Ling Yun was merely fooling around. At the beginning, she could still bear with it, but she really couldn't take it anymore in the end. She asked, "Hey, please stop fooling around! How are you going to learn anything by reading through books in this manner?"
It was impossible for Long Wu not to get angry. This was because, towards the end, Ling Yun even found it too troublesome and started flipping the books ten pages at a time. It didn't matter whether he was looking through the textbook or revision materials. A 300-page book would at most be flipped less than twenty times, and he would be able to imprint all the content into his brain before tossing the book to the side.
"Among all the books and materials that I've looked through, feel free to pick a page and ask me anything. Let's see if I can answer you?"
Ling Yun turned his head to smile pridefully at Long Wu.
Long Wu wasn't convinced by Ling Yun, so she casually picked a few books and flipped to a random page. After asking Ling Yun several questions from several different pages, Long Wu was dumbfounded with a gaping mouth.
Just like how Ling Yun picked his raw stones yesterday, Ling Yun was incredibly accurate in all the questions that he answered.
"Here, these are the revision materials I've prepared for you…"
When Long Wu saw that the books on Ling Yun's table were running out, she handed Ling Yun the notes that she prepared herself, which included new revision exercises as well as the model answers to some questions.
Because there was no need for Long Wu to enter the college entrance examinations, she bought all these revision materials just to prepare Ling Yun for it.
"What…" It was Ling Yun's turn to be shocked.
…
For the next few days, Long Wu became a revision exercise controller. Every single day, she left school for the bookshop and came back with new revision exercises for Ling Yun. If she could, she would probably even shift the entire bookshop back to Ling Yun.
However, even if Long Wu couldn't manage to do so, Ling Yun would still head over to the bookshop himself to browse through all the college entrance examination materials. Just like that, he managed to memorize everything…
Long Wu was merely one of many. In Grade 12 Class 6, there were still Zhang Ling, Teacher Kong Xiuru, as well as the language, history, and politics teacher… There was also Ning Lingyu… For those few weeks, Ling Yun became a pitiful revision machine.
Ling Yun welcomed any new knowledge and materials that he could learn. He wanted to learn all the possible ways to score as high as possible for the college entrance examinations. He made his decision that after the examinations, he would cleanse his brain by discarding all the useless and ridiculous knowledge that he was learning now.
If Ling Yun still couldn't get into Yanjing University after all this, he might as well be knocked down and killed by a tofu.
Studying in class became a normal state for Ling Yun. He didn't miss a single lesson, and when everyone went home, he would cultivate secretly to recover the spiritual energy he exhausted. He stabilized his own cultivation as he waited for an opportunity to breakthrough to Physique Tempering Stage Nine.
After the fourth day back in school, as well as a series of open inquiries, he decided to act against the two vice-principals, Wang Weicheng and Qiu Fenghua.
The two vice-principals could only blame themselves for their bad luck. Ling Yun exposed the adultery between the two of them and even kept them on Qiu Fenghua's bed.
Catching adultery!
Ling Yun called Tang Meng over to video the secret affair of these two people and even published it to the internet. Just like that, Ling Yun stirred up a commotion in the school!
The two of them were completely destroyed by Ling Yun as they were no longer able to work in the education sector. They were forced to resign, and even Xie Zhenting and Lu Chengtian were implicated by this.
Logically, Kong Xiuru was promoted to replace Qiu Fenghua as the vice-principal of the school and was only one position below Principal Zhang.
However, this position was merely a springboard for Kong Xiuru. Ling Yun's goal was to make Kong Xiuru a member of a work team of the Qingshui City's Education Bureau.
Ling Yun also carried out his promise to personally visit Principal Zhang at his home. He casually healed his myopia and cervical spondylosis, which Principal Zhang was eternally grateful for.
There was indeed a backlash for Kong Xiuru's phobia, as she wouldn't even allow Ling Yun to touch her anymore. Moreover, it seemed like this wasn't simply because of her phobia.
Ever since the opening of the Ordinary People's Clinic, there seemed to be an additional layer of barrier between Kong Xiuru and Ling Yun. This barrier had nothing to do with Ling Yun but was Kong Xiuru's own problem.
Ling Yun knew that she was feeling inferior but didn't want to settle it with her. He continued to study his materials while she continued to teach her lessons. During class, Kong Xiuru would always avoid his eyes like a frightened rabbit avoiding its predator. This amused Ling Yun.
"We shall talk after the college entrance examinations…" Ling Yun said.
Friday night, Ling Yun felt better than before because he finally managed to recover the spiritual energy lost from shifting the Green Dragon Out at Sea.
And Cui Lao had also managed to recover as he drank a big bowl of dragon saliva in his most optimal state to charge into the Xiantian Realm!
Because of his unmentionable disease, Cui Lao had been stuck just below the Xiantian Realm for 18 years. This breakthrough was no small matter, and with Ling Yun's help, he managed to charge right through to the pinnacle of Xiantian Realm Level Two with irresistible force!
At this moment, Cui Lao became the first person in the Ling Family aside from Ling Yun to surpass the current family head, Ling Yun's uncle, Ling Zhen!
Cui Lao was from the Divine Blade Sect, so he loved using blades. Ling Yun taught him the Celestial Destroyer Technique, which redoubled his power.
At this moment, Ling Yun had an additional True Qi called the Black Yellow True Qi in his body because of the Black Yellow Sutra he started cultivating.
There was once where Ling Yun was too obsessed with cultivating the Black Yellow Sutra and sensed that the Black Yellow True Qi was actually interacting with his Earth Emperor's Book!
When Ling Yun was producing his Black Yellow True Qi, he actually sensed that one page of the Earth Emperor's Book flipped opened.
