33: Chapter 032: Beating the School Beauty!_1 33: Chapter 032: Beating the School Beauty!_1 With a smile, Lv Zhong emerged from the space within the [Plague God Pearl]. This time, refining the Pathogenic Worm was much smoother and easier than refining the Soul-Devouring Worm last time. Now, the mother of the Pathogenic Worm and its 100 offspring larvae are all residing within the space of the [Plague God Pearl]. Having just been unsealed by Lv Zhong, their bodies are very weak! Inside the [Plague God Pearl], there’s a mysterious force that allows them to swiftly recover. Pathogenic Worm: Mother Worm, Level 1. Controlled larvae Level: LV0, with a quantity limit of 100. Larvae Talent: Can devour viruses and cancer cells, converting them into Life Source Power. Mother Worm’s Main Talent: Punishment Plague High-frequency Wave (can release a waveform specifically attracting viruses, guiding and controlling microscopic parasitic organisms such as bacteria.) Regarding the refined Pathogenic Worm’s Mother Worm, Lv Zhong is extremely satisfied. Back in the day, Lv Yue, also known as the Plague God, was renowned for spreading plagues and diseases. His biggest reliance was in fact the [Pathogenic Worm]. During the Era of Gods’ Sealing War, Lv Yue’s [Pathogenic Worm] had advanced to Level 8, being able to command various plagues. Even the magical treasures he refined, such as the [Punishment Plague Seal], [Plague Stopping Sword], [Plague Bell], [Plague Umbrella], and [Plague Dispelling Whip], were solely to complement the [Pathogenic Worm]. It’s safe to say that most of Lv Yue’s then illustrious power came from the [Pathogenic Worm], laying the foundation for his reign during the Era of Gods. His most significant trump card was the constantly evolving and upgrading [Pathogenic Worm]. Moreover, with each level advancement of the [Pathogenic Worm], new abilities would emerge. Through Lv Yue’s memories, Lv Zhong knew that back then, under Lv Yue’s control, the [Pathogenic Worm] could cultivate viruses, synthesize stronger viruses, and even fuse with other alien insects directly. Now, the appearance of this unique insect again in Lv Zhong will bring what kind of changes to this world? This, even Lv Zhong himself didn’t know! However, Lv Zhong believed that he could bring a beneficial change to modern society! Moreover, since the [Pathogenic Worm] can command plagues, it should naturally be able to stop plagues! … Lv Zhong leisurely returned to school. He had spent around twenty to thirty hours inside the space of the [Plague God Pearl], yet upon exiting, he found that only a little over two hours had passed outside. What an incredible “cheat code”! With the [Plague God Pearl], Lv Zhong could have ten times more time to get things done. Whether it’s studying or cultivation, he doesn’t have to worry about lacking time. Now, Lv Zhong’s soul energy is much stronger than ordinary people’s, making him able to easily remember everything he sees and draw inferences about other cases from one instance. Therefore, studying is very easy for him. Basically, he can handle schoolwork during class hours in the outer world. Inside the [Plague God Pearl], most of Lv Zhong’s time is spent cultivating! If he’s not practicing National Martial Arts, then he’s cultivating the [Microcosmic Spirit Condensation Technique] or the [Transfer Technique]. However, every day for the following week, he still had to spend some time practicing the secret acupuncture technique… Checking his mobile phone, he found that it was already past 7 in the evening. Lv Zhong’s expression changed slightly: it seemed he was late for self-study. But then, he felt his somewhat hungry stomach, laugh bitterly, and bought two pieces of bread and a bottle of drink from a shop near the school. He quickly ate while heading to school. After explaining himself to the guard at the school gate, Lv Zhong quickly headed towards his classroom as soon as he entered the school. Upon entering the classroom, Lv Zhong did not see his homeroom teacher Tan Tianjun, and even the teacher on duty was not there. He let out a sigh of relief. Despite having mastered high school knowledge, being late or leaving early didn’t have a big impact on him. seaʀᴄh thё Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. However, that would be disrespectful to the teachers, especially to Tan Tianjun, who was really good to him. Furthermore, Lv Zhong felt that as a student, he should adhere to the student’s role to discipline himself. He can’t let loose just because he’s now a cultivator. He didn’t want his mind to run wild, making it difficult for him to control his own mind in the future, which would be detrimental to his cultivation. In the classroom, everyone was either self-studying or discussing quietly. Lv Zhong didn’t want to disturb others and moved quietly to his seat. Just then, Lv Zhong, whose soul power had increased significantly, suddenly sensed someone looking at him, and in an instant, even more people turned to look at him. Lv Zhong swiftly looked up and found that the school’s popular beauty, Leng Mei, was looking at him. She showed a moment of confusion and understanding in her eyes, followed by a burst of embarrassment and anger. But Leng Mei had good control, she managed to regain her calm in an instant. She casually took her gaze off of Lv Zhong and turned her head. However, no one noticed that her ears were slightly red. Because Leng Mei turned to look at him, even more people started looking at Lv Zhong. The vast majority of people looked puzzled, shocked, filled with doubt or intense envy. “I was just a little late, I didn’t seem to do anything wrong, did I?” Lv Zhong muttered softly, taking a bite from the remaining piece of bread. He couldn’t figure out why he was being gawked at and looked down upon by everyone again. “Lv Zhong, Brother Zhong, you seem to have gotten yourself into some trouble, hehe…” Tang Lei, the fat man, moved his heavy body over from the other side, chuckling, “Did you see that? Quite a few people in our class hold grudges against you. That includes our campus beauty, Leng Mei, haha. Do you want to know what’s causing the public outrage-” Lv Zhong rolled his eyes at him, his right hand quickly thumping on the top of Tang Fatty’s head, saying impatiently: “Fatso, if you have something to say, say it. If you have to fart, do it quickly. Don’t keep it to yourself.” Having been thumped by Lv Zhong, Tang Lei cried out in pain, giving Lv Zhong a look full of resentment. He then obediently said, “Brother Zhong, the results of this month’s examination in Chinese and Maths have just come out. It seems you were first in both subjects and really outperformed our beautiful Leng Mei. Now you should know why everyone is looking at you with such complex expressions, right?” Lv Zhong was slightly surprised, instinctively saying, “Didn’t I leave a few questions unanswered in each subject? How did I get first place in two subjects…” “What?” Tang Lei, the fat man, had just moved closer to Lv Zhong and heard his words clearly. He could not help but yell out in surprise, “Damn, you intentionally left questions unanswered? And you still got first in two subjects? Boss, you’re my true boss. You deliberately performed poorly last term…” Tang Fatty’s voice was surprisingly loud, his exclamation resonating in all corners of the classroom. All of a sudden, everyone was rocked! Everyone in the room had a deep understanding of how difficult this month’s examination was. They had no idea that Lv Zhong, after intentionally leaving several questions unanswered, could still achieve scores of 137 in Chinese and 140 in Maths. You have to know, Leng Mei only scored 136 in Chinese and 128 in Maths this time around. “This damn guy!” Leng Mei secretly swore. No wonder he rejected the review materials and test collections she had kindly compiled during the winter break. Turns out Lv Zhong was pretending all along last term! Was she a clown in front of him back then? Thinking of this, a blush gradually spread across Leng Mei’s usually cold face. It was a sign of embarrassment and anger. Yan Yan, on the other hand, also looked up in amazement. Her usually somewhat melancholic eyes were now filled with a hint of excitement and admiration: “So Lv Zhong has been hiding his true strength all along. Just like how he hid his exceptional abilities! How amazing…” Many people believed that Lv Zhong had been pretending and holding back his real strength. After all, over the years, they had heard of many rebellious students doing the same thing. And on top of that, Lv Zhong’s grades were pretty good before entering senior year. Of course, while there were those who believed in Lv Zhong, there were also many people who didn’t believe him at all. Those who didn’t trust Lv Zhong fell into two categories. One group didn’t believe that Lv Zhong still had energy left after scoring 137 and 140 points in his Chinese and Maths exams. The other group simply didn’t believe Lv Zhong was capable of achieving such high scores and thought he must have cheated. However, whether other people believed in his ability or not, Lv Zhong didn’t care. After hearing Tang Lei’s explanation, Lv Zhong immediately understood why he had attracted so much attention this time. This month’s examination across the city was extremely difficult. And even though Lv Zhong had held back some of his strength, he estimated that he could score 670 points in this exam, which would put him in a strong position to rank among the top three in the city. After all, Leng Mei, who was the champion of the last monthly exam, was now outperformed by Lv Zhong. As expected! The results for comprehensive arts and English came out over the next two days. In these two subjects, Lv Zhong scored 277 points in comprehensive arts, and surprisingly, he still secured 120 points in English despite leaving the 30-point listening section blank. Therefore, adding the scores of Chinese and Maths, Lv Zhong’s total score reached 674 points. Although his scored points in this examination were not much different from his previous estimation, he didn’t anticipate that the questions he thought were easy would be extremely difficult for others. As a result, he who didn’t want to attract too much attention, had instead become a well-known figure among teachers and students throughout the school and even the whole city. Meanwhile, Leng Mei scored 136 in Chinese, 128 in Maths, 259 in comprehensive arts, and 145 in English, with a total score of 668. Lv Zhong beat Leng Mei by six points to win first place in this citywide monthly exam. As for Ao Yuling, the talented girl from No. 8 Middle School, her total score was also 668 points, ranking second in the city along with Leng Mei. The third place was Chen Dayu from City No.1 High School, with a total score of 655 points! And the first place in the science stream went to Luo Xing from No. 8 Middle School, who scored 670 points. This time, in the citywide monthly examination, only 25 out of all senior year students at No.1 High School managed to score over 600 points. Out of these, 16 were from the science stream and nine from the humanities stream. And at No. 8 Middle School, 31 students scored over 600 points, with 17 from the science stream and 14 from the humanities stream. The top two schools in the city only had this small number of students who scored above 600 points, which showed the difficulty of this monthly examination. For this reason, Lv Zhong’s 674 points were especially eye-catching. What’s more, Lv Zhong had been low-key since entering senior year, but this time he shot straight to the top, taking first place. This not only shocked his classmates and the teachers who knew him but also made him known to the teachers and students of No. 8 Middle School.
