Chapter 10, The First Honor

"How is the statistics?" asked the vice president of the provincial mathematics society, who is primarily responsible for the national high school mathematics competition.

However, there is nothing that can be done; he has influence, but it is very difficult to affect these strange and reclusive individuals. Just like that esteemed elder who serves as the head of the college entrance examination mathematics question-setting group, once he appears, the mathematics scores will plummet significantly, and lamentations will be heard everywhere

... ...

Moreover, they remember that those who win the first prize in the provincial competition are eligible for direct admission to key universities, and even if they do not receive direct admission, they can still gain extra points in the college entrance examination. According to the policies of Fujian Province, this can indeed add points, specifically 5 points.

Returning home is still Saturday, and the next day is still Sunday, so there is no need to go to school. The third year of high school is different from the first and second years; in the first and second years, there are two days off each week, and there are no classes on weekends. However, in the third year, there is only one day off on Sunday, and there is no need for evening self-study on Saturday night.

Qin Yuanqing was immediately delighted, realizing that he had stumbled upon a windfall by sheer coincidence

Impressive

"Is the mathematics competition difficult?" Lin Yuling asked

The number of perfect papers that can be produced in this province represents the achievements of the past year. However, this year, there is only 1 perfect paper in the provincial competition, which leaves President Qi at a loss for words. Is this how work is done

Qin Yuanqing rubbed his eyes, and there was nothing unusual. He picked up the mirror from the position of the thin monkey and took a look; there was nothing dirty on his face

Monday, a certain class of the third year at Jinpu No. 1 High School

If it is said that Qin Yuanqing scored 697 points in the last monthly exam, one might attribute it to luck

The National High School Mathematics Joint Competition began in 1981 and has a history of over twenty years. It is a regular activity organized by the Huaxia Mathematical Society and various provincial, municipal, and autonomous region mathematical societies, aimed at promoting the rapid development of outstanding talents. A selection of students is made from the provincial competitions to participate in the National High School Mathematics Joint Competition, where the top 400 students with excellent results are chosen to attend the 'Huaxia Mathematics Olympiad (CMO) and the National Middle School Mathematics Winter Camp' organized by the Huaxia Mathematical Society's Olympic Committee

At this moment, the school broadcast announced: "Now, we would like to share some good news. Our senior high school student, Qin Yuanqing, has achieved a perfect score in the provincial round of the National High School Mathematics Competition held last Saturday, ranking first among numerous competitors"

I think I did fairly well on the exam, so I shouldn't have regressed too much, right? Could it be that I have regressed significantly this time? Qin Yuanqing said somewhat nervously, otherwise, why would everyone be looking at him so early in the morning

The evaluation of over 1,200 examination papers for the Fujian Province League has been completed.

"Qin Yuanqing, how many points did you score in this math competition, and what place did you come in?" a classmate called out.

He has the present, and an important point is that he has systematic assistance, which others do not have. The intelligence of others is innate, and their potential is limited; no matter how hard they try, there is a clear ceiling.

Chairman Qi, the difficulty of this year's topic has increased compared to last year, with only 1 paper achieving full marks, whereas there were 8 last year. A middle-aged man wearing glasses said in a deep voice; he is one of the question setters for this year's provincial mathematics competition and also one of the reviewers.

In the late night, the headquarters building of the Provincial Mathematical Society is brightly lit

"Cut it out, you still have some shame left, your skin is thicker than a city wall." The thin monkey showed no respect to Qin Yuanqing: "Qin Yuanqing, do you know? You really excelled in this midterm exam, do you know how many points you scored and what rank you achieved?"

Qin Yuanqing let out a sigh of relief, thankful that he had been mistaken in thinking everyone was watching him due to his significant drop in grades; it turned out he had actually achieved the first place in his grade for the school year

This learning currency is indeed a valuable asset that cannot be purchased with money

Qin Yuanqing was also beaming with joy; he had not expected to achieve a perfect score in the provincial competition, let alone rank first. However, this achievement was well-deserved after nearly a month of tireless effort and dedication to studying the competition problems.

This midterm examination is quite different from the previous monthly test, as the difficulty has increased significantly

Then he noticed that in the system space, Task 1 and Task 2 in the taskbar had been completed. Qin Yuanqing felt a stir in his heart as he received 120 learning coins, bringing his total to 400 learning coins

"Brother, you are absolutely amazing!" The thin monkey excitedly embraced Qin Yuanqing, being the first to extend his congratulations.

Classmate Qin Yuanqing, you scored 695 points in this midterm exam, ranking first in the grade! Lin Yuling covered her face with both hands, her eyes shining with excitement

It is simply unattainable

Qin Yuanqing then learned that the school was going to take a group photo and produce a promotional video to effectively promote itself

Then suddenly, the classmates in the classroom began to clap in unison, and the enthusiastic applause made Qin Yuanqing feel somewhat embarrassed

Originally, Qin Yuanqing's grades were acceptable, and it was quite normal for him to enter the top one hundred. This was something everyone could accept, as the gap was not so unattainable. However, it has only been a short time, and Qin Yuanqing is now high above, looking down upon all.

Qin Yuanqing sat down and stroked his chin: "Strange, what is going on today? My classmates are staring at me. Could it be that I didn't wash my face properly this morning?"

At this moment, the thin monkey felt particularly honored and excited that such an impressive person was actually his deskmate, and for three years at that

The joy of this harvest is simply overwhelming, a sense of accomplishment that ordinary people can hardly comprehend

Indeed, when the mathematics teacher Wu Wenshan, beaming with joy, entered the classroom and announced Qin Yuanqing's results and ranking in the provincial competition, as well as his distinction of being the first student from Jinpu No. 1 High School to join the provincial team for the national competition, the entire classroom erupted in thunderous applause, with students clapping vigorously.

As soon as the class was over, Qin Yuanqing was taken by Wu Wenshan to the principal's office, where Qin Yuanqing's homeroom teacher, the senior year head, and the head of the mathematics department were also present

The top student in the school is not from the experimental class, just thinking about it is quite satisfying

It is not as difficult as I imagined! Qin Yuanqing pondered for a moment before speaking

They do not understand how Qin Yuanqing suddenly resembled a hero from a television drama, swiftly opening the eight extraordinary meridians and making rapid progress all at once

Upon hearing the announcement of the congratulatory message broadcasted by the school, all the classmates exclaimed in astonishment. Just recently, they achieved first place in the midterm examination, scoring full marks in mathematics. Subsequently, they participated in the provincial competition and again secured first place, also with a perfect score. This is simply a miracle

Another perfect score

Sometimes it is like this: when a person is slightly ahead, others will feel envy and jealousy; however, when someone is far ahead, others will only offer their blessings

All the students in the class focused their attention entirely on Qin Yuanqing, watching him as he walked from the back door to his seat

Congratulations to the host for achieving the first honor in life, first place in the provincial competition, with a reward of 200 study coins. Wishing the host to continue striving and to courageously reach new heights. At this moment, the system's voice sounded.

"Why are you all staring at me? It's making me so shy!" Qin Yuanqing waved to everyone and said, "I have thin skin, so I get embarrassed easily!"

What the hell

This is truly a rare find; each individual who is able to enter the provincial team can be considered a top student in the subject of mathematics, consistently achieving full marks in examinations.

It is extremely impressive

This means that Qin Yuanqing has since ranked among the top scholars at Jinpu No. 1 Middle School

What happened at the provincial mathematics association was unknown to Qin Yuanqing and the others. After taking a brief stroll through the Sanfang Qixiang in Rongcheng, they boarded a bus back to Jinpu No. 1 Middle School. They were organized and disciplined, and were not allowed to act recklessly.

Not as difficult as imagined

Meanwhile, the learning currency column will be restored to 400

Indeed, Qin Yuanqing, we are all very curious! The others also nodded in agreement, their faces filled with anticipation

They all know that after this midterm exam, Qin Yuanqing will participate in the provincial competition of the high school mathematics league. In this midterm exam, Qin Yuanqing scored a perfect 150 in mathematics, being the only student in the entire grade to achieve a perfect score in mathematics

However, this time I scored 695 points and ranked first, so it is no longer a matter of luck. Once can be attributed to luck, but twice is a demonstration of strength

In this midterm examination, Qin Yuanqing scored one hundred points more than the second place, Lin Yuling, which represents a significant gap

After making this round trip, Qin Yuanqing also felt somewhat tired, spending the entire Sunday lying in bed to rest and listening to music, a rare moment of such leisure.

The second place, Zhao Teng, scored 680 points this time, and you scored 15 points higher than him!" the thin monkey said excitedly

Early in the morning, as Qin Yuanqing entered the classroom, he immediately sensed a unique atmosphere

This is the first time since the establishment of Jinpu No. 1 Middle School that we have achieved first place in the provincial competition. Congratulations to student Qin Yuanqing

It is important to note that each year, only about 2,000 individuals qualify to participate in the National High School Mathematics Joint Competition, which averages to approximately 40 individuals per province.

Qin Yuanqing gritted his teeth and exchanged 200 learning coins for intelligence, raising his IQ to 165. Thus, in future IQ tests, he would also belong to the high IQ group

"I just finished the exam on Saturday morning, and the papers may not even be graded yet. How would I know how many points I scored or what my rank is?" Qin Yuanqing said helplessly, as he was not the one grading the papers, so he had no way of knowing.

It was only then that Qin Yuanqing remembered that, according to custom, the Academic Affairs Office would post the midterm exam results on the bulletin board in the morning. He had forgotten about it and had not gone to check.

Next month, around the middle of the month, is the day of the National High School Mathematics Competition, and time is rather tight said President Qi, slightly furrowing his brows
