The midterm exam results were out, Wen Zhong, Nie Qingzhou, and Xia Yi unsurprisingly took the top three spots in the grade. Now the top three students were all in the same class, making it difficult for dark horses to emerge, and Nie Qingzhou was no longer the commoner hero of the parallel class.
However, in the first-year class, teachers still often used Nie Qingzhou as an example to prove that studying hard would yield results. Going from a thousandth place to first in the grade within a month was possible, so what wasn't?
When Xia Yi went to the office to pick up tasks, she overheard the first-year teachers discussing Nie Qingzhou's outstanding performance in the past. Listening to the class teacher's instructions with one ear and the praises from the first-year teachers nearby with the other, she felt very good.
