Chapter 364: Top of the Monthly Ranking, Full Circle
Before Jiang Youzhen and his friends even reached the front of the list, they heard people talking about it.
"Who is this Jiang Youzhen? He is actually at the top of the list."
"You don't even know Jiang Youzhen. He is the first place in the Wenxian County case who just entered the prefectural school."
"Brother, you usually don't pay attention to what's happening outside the window, but you didn't recognize Jiang Youzhen."
"Is she some famous scholar? Do I have to know her?"
"The person at the top of our monthly ranking has changed. Tong Huaian is actually ranked second."
"Look, Sun Changle has dropped to third place on the list."
"Oh my God! Jiang Youzhen actually got a full circle? This is too exaggerated." Some students exclaimed.
"A full circle? How is that possible?"
Everyone rushed forward and counted the circles on the list. Two essays from the Four Books, one policy question, one poem of five-character eight-rhyme, one paper marked by three teachers, that was three circles.
Jiang Youzhen got fifteen circles. Since the opening of the provincial school, no one has ever gotten fifteen circles.
The circles here are not a measure of whether you have passed the exam, but will only be given if you are extremely satisfied.
"What kind of article could have filled all the circles? I can't believe it."
Everyone exclaimed in surprise, and many people were already waiting to read Jiang Youzhen's article.
The article that tops the monthly list will not only be posted on the list, but will also be entered into the library, which is a great honor.
"Junior brother, you are so awesome!" Qian Wende was extremely surprised. He was worthy of being the top case in the county!
He smacked his lips in envy. If only he had this kind of brain, wouldn't his ancestors' graves be filled with smoke? His father wouldn't have to work so hard on his shoes.
"Who is Jiang Youzhen? From Dingdeng Book House?"
"Can't I enter Dingdeng's library when I first arrive?"
Qian Wende rolled his eyes and started yelling casually, "Everyone, make way! Jiang Youzhen is here, the number one on the list is here! The top of the monthly list is here!"
Jiang Youzhen quickly grabbed the other person's sleeve. She thought she was quite socially impressive, but now she could only cover her face.
Sure enough, everyone looked at her, and Jiang Youzhen could only respond with an awkward smile.
Luo Sheng's face was gloomy. He had done well in the exam this time, ranking 87th, which was a huge improvement from last time. He should be able to get into a Grade B dormitory. He was ecstatic.
He believed that he would be able to get into a top-notch library next time. Just as he was looking at the list complacently, he unexpectedly saw Jiang Youzhen's name at the top.
He rubbed his eyes several times and counted circles several times, but found that he was not mistaken.
"Jiang Youzhen, why do you do so many circles? On what basis?" He rushed to Jiang Youzhen and asked angrily.
Jiang Youzhen was speechless. Aren't those so many circles given by the examiner? Of course it's because she wrote well!
"Brother Luo, your question is a bit strange. Of course it's because Junior Brother Jiang's essay is good! There are so many candidates at the top of the list, are you going to rush over to ask why? Wouldn't that tire you out?"
Qian Wende found it funny. He didn't know why Luo Sheng had to go against Junior Brother Jiang. It was obvious that Junior Brother Jiang hadn't provoked him!
With such a brain, how could he get 87th place in the exam? He was surprised.
Qian Wende instantly felt his heart filled with fighting spirit. If Luo Sheng could rank 87th, he could definitely do it too!
Everyone laughed. This made sense. Why? Of course it was because the article was good!
"Brother Luo, Junior Brother Jiang's article will be posted later. Can't you just make a judgement then? We all have sharp eyes to see whether she deserves the top spot."
The provincial school was full of elite students, and Jiang Youzhen had topped the list right after arriving, which naturally made them suspicious.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother Jiang, on being promoted to the A-grade dormitory." No matter what others said, Qian Wende was happy for Jiang Youzhen.
"Isn't this the first time taking the test? We have to take it again, right?" Jiang Youzhen asked with some confusion.
Qian Wende rolled his eyes immediately, "Junior brother! You haven't read the school rules of the prefecture school carefully!"
"Those who rank first in the monthly rankings can directly enter the A-grade dormitory without having to wait twice."
Is there such a rule? Jiang Youzhen suddenly felt guilty. She seemed to want to come and see, but she was too busy.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother Jiang!" Many students from Class B Book House No. 2 came up to congratulate him, but there were also many who were jealous.
"Congratulations, Xiaolang!"
Jiang Youzhen heard a familiar voice and turned around to see that it was Tong Huaian.
"Brother Tong?"
When everyone saw that it was Tong Huaian, they all bowed to him with looks of admiration on their faces.
"Hello, fellow disciples!" Tong Huaian bowed to everyone with a very gentle expression.
I didn't expect Tong Huaian to be quite prestigious in the prefectural school? But this prestige might be earned by being the first or second on the list for many years.
"Xiao Lang, congratulations!" Tong Huaian looked at Jiang Youzhen. He had read Jiang Youzhen's article and could only come to one conclusion, that is, studying really depends on talent.
Jiang Youzhen's talent is amazing and shocking.
"Senior Brother Tong and Junior Brother Jiang are familiar with each other?" Everyone was a little surprised.
"Junior Brother Jiang and I are from the same hometown and have been good friends before." Tong Huaian smiled.
"It's true that birds of a feather flock together! How bad can one be if he becomes friends with someone as smart as Senior Brother Tong?"
"Isn't it? No wonder, Senior Brother Tong and Junior Brother Jiang are both the top of the Wen County case."
Everyone sighed, seeing that both of them had extraordinary family backgrounds, were good at studying, and would have connections to enter officialdom in the future!
"Senior Brother Tong is a mysterious figure. It's rare to see him in the prefectural school. He comes to take the monthly exams every month. Why did he come this time when the results were announced?"
"I guess you're here to look for Junior Brother Jiang?"
"Huh? Is that Sun Changle? Why is he here too?" Everyone was surprised when they saw the thin figure appearing in front of them.
"It's really Sun Changle. What day is today? It's just the announcement of the results, but you're all here? The top three on the list are all here!"
"Sun Changle has always been number one or number two on the list. This time he's ranked third. I'm sure he can't sit still, right?"
Jiang Youzhen looked over curiously. This Sun Changle was even more mysterious than Tong Huaian.
Tong Huaian rarely comes to the provincial school, and Sun Changle is only seen during the monthly exams.
Jiang Youzhen looked at the other person, the person was shaking in the clothes, that was about it.
Very thin, but tall, with delicate features, but a pale face? This person's skin is slightly yellow and looks unwell.
Sun Changle stood not far from the crowd, and then turned his gaze to Jiang Youzhen.
He looked Jiang Youzhen up and down, but said nothing. After a moment, he turned and left.
"Wow! You really came to see Jiang Youzhen. You must want to see who is at the top of the list."
"He left after seeing it, that's for sure. But Senior Brother Sun doesn't look too well, he's thinner, and his personality is more withdrawn than before."
"Oh! Stop discussing him. He never comes to study and only comes to take exams. He thinks he's so great. If you don't like our school, then don't come!"
