"Everyone, do your best. Regarding the monthly exam's reward and punishment system, I believe all of you are very clear about it. I don't need to repeat it, right? If you do well, you will gain both fame and fortune. If you don't do well, hehe ~ ~ "
The next morning, Li Zexuan held the exam papers and stood on the podium. He was trying to motivate the students before the exam. But his words did not sound like he was trying to motivate them!
The students, especially Cheng Chumo, Sun Zifan, Yu Dongcai, Kong Quancun and the others, who were aiming to get out of the last five places, heard Li Zexuan's sneer and felt their buttocks tighten. Ah no, their hearts tightened. If they were unlucky enough to get into the last five places, they would not have a good time next month!
Ke Shiqing, Zeng Ziran, Meng Wenhao and the others, who were in the front, were all eager to try. The reward for getting first place in the monthly exam was very tempting!
Especially Meng Wenhao, who was determined to get first place in this monthly exam. This was because the fleet that was going south would set sail the day after tomorrow. He wanted to get first place and give it to his father.
Li Tai was very indifferent. What Li Er said to him yesterday, of course, he took it as a joke. The Royal Family was not so poor that they could not afford to eat.
"Okay! Put away your textbooks and start the exam! "
At this time, there was the sound of the drum and bell from the Directorate. Li Zexuan patted the podium and signaled everyone to be quiet. He began to distribute the exam papers.
After handing out the papers, Li Zexuan returned to the podium and brought over a stool. He sat in front of the podium and gloated as he looked at the group of miserable children who were being ravaged by the exam.
"Eh? The questions this time, why … "
After experiencing the previous weekly exams, the students were already immune to those strange questions. However, when they received the test paper and opened it, they were not used to it. The style of these questions was not quite right! It was so simple!
"Hehe, you all can be proud over there! The questions are simple, but it does not mean they are easy! "
Li Zexuan was sitting on the podium. The expressions of the students naturally fell into his eyes. He couldn't help but snicker in his heart.
Compared to the previous questions, this set of questions was indeed very basic. But who said that basic questions were easy to do? For those who had gone through exam-oriented education, the basic questions were the most difficult. In his previous life, Li Zexuan would rather do some extremely difficult questions than basic questions. Some basic questions were especially easy to lose points. What's more, there were more or less traps in these questions. As for who would fall into the traps, it would depend on their own luck.
"F * ck! Sir, you're giving me free marks with these questions! Haha! "
Sun Zifan continued to do a few questions as if he had the help of God. In an instant, he felt very good about himself. He couldn't help but feel very proud. He secretly thought that he wouldn't be beaten when he went home this time, right?
In the previous weekly exam, although Sun Zifan relied on the last additional question to get out of the last five, but he only just got out of the last five. He was the eighth from the bottom in the mathematics school. When his father, Sun Fujia, casually asked Kong Yingda about Sun Zifan's results after the morning court, he found out that Sun Zifan, the son of the top scholar, was "honored" as the eighth from the bottom in the class. He was furious. When he returned home, he did not say anything and beat Sun Zifan up. Mrs. Sun pleaded bitterly, but it was useless.
Sun Zifan still remembered the next day when he came to the mathematics school with a swollen face and was laughed at by everyone. In order to not be beaten again, this guy had been studying hard recently. He had learned all the new mathematics knowledge that he had not learned before. At this time, if he was asked to do the last weekly exam again, Sun Zifan was confident that he would not be at the bottom.
"If 1 = 4, 2 = 8, 3 = 24, then 4 = _ _ _."
"F * ck, this question is too easy, right? If it was seven days ago, I might not even be able to understand this question. Even if I understood it, I wouldn't be able to calculate it in a short time. Hehe, what a pity. A scholar who has been away for three days must be looked at with new eyes. The answer to this question is equal to four times twenty-four! I can use the multiplication formula and calculate it in a moment! "
When Sun Zifan saw the fifth question, he was overjoyed. He was not stupid. Of course, he could find the pattern. Moreover, he now had a certain foundation in mathematics, so this guy thought that he could find the answer quickly.
Sun Zifan calculated the result on the draft paper — 96. Then he proudly wrote the answer on the test paper.
.....
Of course, in the Mathematics Library, there were many "masters". Naturally, there was no lack of smart people, such as Li Tai, Iron Egg, and Meng Wenhao!
As they encountered more and more questions, the three of them did not relax at all. Instead, they became more and more serious. Their eyebrows were tighter and tighter. They looked as if they were facing a great enemy. It was as if the question in front of them was a scourge.
"It's not easy. This question is definitely not as simple as it looks on the surface. Just like the previous four questions, there must be a trap in the question! "
Meng Wenhao kept reminding himself to not be careless and not fall into the trap. In the previous four questions, he almost got it wrong. Fortunately, he relied on his intuition and checked on the spot. That was why he did not fall into the trap set by Li Zexuan.
Meng Wenhao had been "tricked" many times. His first instinct when he saw the fifth question was that this question was not easy. He secretly warned himself that he must not solve the question according to the usual way. Otherwise, he would definitely get it wrong.
After looking at the question several times, Meng Wenhao's eyes suddenly lit up.
"I got it! 1 = 4. Isn't 4 equal to 1? Sure enough, it's not 96! Sure enough, Mr. Wang deliberately set a trap to harm others! "
Meng Wenhao was happy, but he could not help but feel lucky. Fortunately, he was serious. Otherwise, he was afraid that he would lose points for such a simple question. If he could not get the first place because of this, wouldn't he cry to death?
Iron Egg and Li Tai found the correct answer almost at the same time. They did not have the "complicated" inner experience like Meng Wenhao. The reason why they were not fooled by the simple appearance of these questions was that they were too familiar with Li Zexuan's character. They knew that with Li Zexuan's "bad temper", he would never set such an easy question to let everyone get full marks easily. Therefore, the more simple the question looked, the more suspicious they were.
Li Zexuan leaned on the podium and looked for a while. He felt that it was a little boring because there was no one who cheated!
Now, he was considered a celebrity in Chang 'an. The second generation of the officials in the Imperial College were not simple. Naturally, they were more well-informed than ordinary people. Through word of mouth, many students knew that not only was he good at learning, but he was also good at martial arts! Therefore, no one dared to cheat under Li Zexuan's nose!
Li Zexuan leaned on the podium. His eyelids became heavier and heavier. Slowly, he … fell asleep!
The main reason was that he had "chatted" with Yuxi too late last night!
