Chapter 14

....

Alexander chatted with Arius as he ate his breakfast.

In the past, he wouldn't have listened to his father at all. Now, he started to listen really carefully and started pondering over his father's words.

"He has grown up…"

Alexander felt content. Arius's performance was vastly different these two days.

He used to hear other people telling him that their child suddenly grew up and became mature. He could only smile bitterly in response. He felt that his useless son wouldn't be able to mature before he turned 30.

As his father, he was really worried for him!

Yet, now, Alexander managed to wait until the day arrived!

Sob~ this is too touching. His sternness was finally starting to take effect. He did not waste his effort being a strict father.

Alexander finished his porridge and wiped his mouth. He said with a serious expression, "The SAT for reading and writing and math are a important tests. I hope that you can think about it properly.

"I'm informing you about this not because I want you to take the SAT this year.

"The SAT is just around the corner. Your grades are terrible and you only started practicing martial arts recently, so there's no hope of you taking the tests this year. We can only wait until next year or the year after.

"The Department of Education has a rule. You can register for the martial arts course anytime before you turn 20. Hence, you have two chances to repeat your high school.

"As long as you can become an advanced stage martial disciple before you are 20, you will have the chance to register for the martial arts course. I can hire tutors to help you with your studies and give you specialized tutoring. There will be a good chance for you to enter university."

He looked at Arius after he finished speaking with a hint of anticipation in his eyes. He hoped that his son would have a bright future!

This was probably the wish all parents had for their children. This might be a form of love.

Arius slowly finished the fried dough stick in his hand under Alexander's gaze. Then, he raised his head and smiled. "Dad, maybe we won't have to wait until next year."

When he saw Arius's smile, Alexander knew that his son was listening to what he just said. But why did he feel like scolding him upon hearing his words?

He couldn't help but laugh and say, "It's good to have confidence, but please don't pretend in front of your father, your little brat."

He didn't believe that Arius was able to pass his SAT this year.

"This child is getting naughtier and naughtier."

Dianne took the coat on the clothing rack and passed it to Alexander as she complained sweetly.

"I won't be arranging a driver for you today. You can drive or take public transport. It's up to you. " Alexander took over the coat and left the house.

Arius was speechless. Wasn't he very worried in the past? His father always asked someone to send him to school and escort him home afterward, fearing that he would fool around outside.

He shook his head and bade farewell to his mother. "Mom, I've finished eating. I will be leaving."

"Okay. Be careful on the way."

…

Arius drove his car and reached Orange No. 1 High School in 20 minutes. He found a space in the parking lot for his car and started walking towards his classroom.

Well… if he remembered correctly, he should be in the V hall classroom NO. 335.

The V hall classroom building.

Most of the students here seemed to be in a hurry. The atmosphere here was much tenser than the classroom buildings for freshmans and sophomores.

When he reached his classroom, many students were already studying hard.

Most of them moved their lips as they silently recited their textbooks. They didn't make any sound to avoid disturbing others.

Arius's arrival seemed highly conspicuous in the quiet classroom. A few students raised their heads with a tinge of surprise in their gazes.

But, they didn't think too much.

They thought this rich second generation probably woke up early accidentally.

He will most likely resume his usual late arrivals tomorrow.

These few thoughts flashed through the minds of several students in unplanned unison. They hurriedly lowered their heads and continued what they were doing after that.

When Arius walked into the classroom, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Attribute bubbles!

A few bubbles had dropped beside a few students.

He watched as one of the female students silently recited her textbook and a small bubble appeared on her lips. As she continued, the bubble slowly became bigger…

Then, it dropped on the floor with a 'splat'.

She looked like a goldfish blowing bubbles.

Arius was in a trance. You could drop bubbles when you are studying?

He always thought that only martial arts had attributes. From the looks of it, that wasn't the case.

He walked over calmly and collected the attributes.

Language*10

English*15

Biology*12

Chemistry*15

…

The next moment, Arius smiled. A second ago, he was still worried that he wouldn't be able to bring up his grades up. Now, the study attributes came like rain in a drought.

His bug was really amazing!

After he collected the attributes, relevant knowledge started appearing in his mind.

He felt as though he had learned all of this before. They had merged into his memory and would never disappear.

Arius sat down beside the lady that blew the bubble just now.

Indeed, this was Arius's table buddy.

This lady was their class monitor, Elaine Caldwell. She came from a normal family, but she was an ultimate star student. She had the chance to enter the top universities in America.

One was a rich second generation who couldn't study, while the other was an average civilian who was a star student.

By right, there was no way these two people could sit together. But, their headteacher, Odis Stein, arranged their seating like this.

He claimed that he did this so that the good student could teach her poor fellow classmate.

Hence, the best student, Elaine, had to teach the worst student, Arius.

Old Stein's unexpected move almost caused all the students in the class to sprain their backs.

He wasn't afraid that this would affect Elaine and this star student might go astray because of Arius. There was a chance that she could enter the best university in the country.

Of course, Elaine's appearance was another reason why everyone was filled with righteous indignation.

This was such a good and pretty little flower. Old Stein was committing a crime by placing her beside such an unworthy person.

Unfortunately, no one dared to voice out their anger.

Arius was a rich second generation who would be inheriting hundreds of millions of assets in the future. They couldn't afford to offend him.

However, everyone was surprised by Arius. Although he was incompetent in his studies, he didn't disturb Elaine.

They had been table buddies for more than a year, and Elaine's results remained the same. She was always number one, never dropping in rank.

Also, because of Arius, many male students didn't dare to disturb Elaine. This gave her a quiet learning environment.

Who knew that this might be a blessing in disguise.

Elaine looked at Elaine, and a memory floated into his mind.

He was just starting his last year in high school.

Alexander one night, suddenly told arius proudly, "Son, I gave some gifts to your headteacher so that he will arrange the best student to sit beside you. You should learn from her properly.

"That's right. Don't bully the young lady. If I know, I will break your leg. Do you understand!"

Arius was frozen on the spot when he heard this piece of news.

Especially when he saw Old Amrit's proud expression, he felt speechless.

You placed the prettiest lady in school beside me, but you don't allow me to touch her. Are you my biological father?

This is too cruel!

Despite complaining, Arius didn't dare disobey Alexander. Hence, he remained as Elaine's obedient and good table buddy for a year.
