In the morning, running to school.
Two kilometers.
[Physical exercise, Study Coin +2. ]
Entering the classroom and seeing Lin Xiaoqing, then establishing two clothing-related options as usual.
"Pink, beige."
As Lin Xiaoqing turned her head, Zhao Yi stared at the textbook and unconsciously said two English words, as if he was just reciting words.
Lin Xiaoqing pondered for a while, and then stared at him with a flushed face.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Yi raised his head in confusion.
Lin Xiaoqing glared at him fiercely and gritted her teeth, "Don't ever let me find out how you know this, or else..."
Her small fists clenched tightly.
Zhao Yi rolled his eyes in disgust, "You're sick!"
[Teasing a girl, target: Lin Xiaoqing, Study Coin +3. ]
Three study coins, which can be converted into thirty points of energy, are enough to do many math problems.
It's worth the risk!
Zhao Yi smirked and concentrated on studying.
Open the system.
[Study Coin: 16. ]
[Use Study Coin to enhance concentration!]
[Study Coin -1, assist in enhancing concentration, duration: sixty minutes. ]
After using the study coin, Zhao Yi found that his brain became flexible. He opened the high school mathematics textbook, and when his attention was focused on the textbook, everything around him disappeared, leaving only him and the knowledge of the mathematics textbook on the table.
This kind of concentration is incredibly efficient.
Even if his intelligence itself hasn't increased, the learning efficiency has increased by three to four times due to sufficient concentration.
First, mathematics.
When feeling slightly annoyed, quickly switch to the biology textbook and continue to maintain concentration mode.
As he took out several chemistry textbooks, the self-study session ended.
"Ring~~~~"
End of class.
Sun Liang forcefully patted Zhao Yi's shoulder and leaned his head close, laughing, "What's the matter today? Why are you so serious? I even called you, and you didn't respond?"
Zhao Yi replied, "We're in senior year now; we must be serious!"
"Blegh~~"
Sun Liang made a retching gesture.
"Three minutes of heat!" Lin Xiaoqing disdainfully commented.
"Going to the restroom?" Sun Liang stood up and asked.
"No!"
Zhao Yi rolled his eyes as he discovered that some things were really hard to get used to.
For example, Sun Liang.
He went to the restroom every break, which seemed to have become his second home. His nickname shouldn't be "Monkey," but "Restroom Maniac."
There was still time left for concentration, so Zhao Yi continued to immerse himself in the chemistry textbook.
Five minutes later, he opened the system.
[Energy: 89/102. ]
"More than forty minutes and consumed more than a dozen points of energy. It seems that in concentration mode, it consumes more energy than regular learning."
"Consumption is proportional to learning efficiency!"
The first class is Chinese.
Teacher Wang is gentle in character and has a good temper, not minding students sleeping in class. Most of the time, she doesn't care, unless it's about a key knowledge point.
Zhao Yi lowered his head and glanced at the chemistry textbook.
Considering the mode of concentration, it seemed not good to block most of the sounds.
He decided to replenish some energy.
Sleep.
"Hu~ Hu~~"
He slept for twenty minutes.
Lin Xiaoqing turned her head with a smile, her face showing a lovely dimple. She gently stroked his hair and whispered softly, "Zhao Yi, you didn't sleep well last night? Just sleep a little more; Teacher Wang doesn't care anyway."
Zhao Yi suddenly opened his eyes!
He looked up!
A gentle but serious face appeared before him.
Zhao Yi shuddered all over and quickly stood up, shouting, "Teacher Wang!"
Teacher Wang frowned and said seriously, "Zhao Yi, I remember you were sleeping in class yesterday afternoon, right? It's okay to be sleepy and take a nap once or twice, but always sleeping is too much, isn't it?"
Zhao Yi grinned and chuckled, "I just felt a little sleepy and couldn't help myself. I'll definitely correct this, definitely correct this... "
"Stay awake. Next, we're going to talk about the structure of argumentative essays!" Teacher Wang said somewhat discontentedly.
"Okay, okay!"
After Teacher Wang left, Sun Liang quickly leaned his head in, "Wasn't it 'serious study'? "
"So serious that he fell asleep!"
The explanation of argumentative essays was not particularly interesting.
Chinese is a subject that relies on accumulation.
Compositions test a combination of accumulation, writing skills, and imagination. No matter how much the teacher talks about compositions, reading and knowing more is better.
Zhao Yi only listened for a few minutes before he couldn't take it anymore.
He wanted to continue listening.
Unconsciously, Zhao Yi fell asleep despite his brain's resistance. When he woke up, the class was already over.
Teacher Wang packed up his things and left. Before leaving, he shot an unhappy glance at Zhao Yi.
That look practically said, "Bad student! Sleeping! Not paying attention in class! I'm not helping you anymore!"
Zhao Yi felt distressed for a moment and then took out his math textbook to continue memorizing definitions and formulas, also doing a small function problem.
A ten-minute break between classes was too short, and using Study Coins felt wasteful.
Still, Zhao Yi checked the system and discovered that sleeping during Chinese class was productive.
[Extra rest, Study Coin +2.]
Getting two Study Coins for sleeping through one class and recovering enough energy to make up for the consumption in [Focused Mode] left him with a surplus.
Zhao Yi knew what to do now.
Study!
Sleep!
Study!
Sleep!
Zhao Yi spent the whole day in cycles of studying and sleeping, only occasionally listening to useful information like math classes.
Math classes were very useful.
Under Niu Lianhua's terrifyingly intense gaze, even if he listened in a daze, Zhao Yi chose to immediately memorize all the theorems and formulas he learned in math class, so he wouldn't give himself more trouble.
His chemistry teacher, Horse-face Xue, was much nicer in comparison.
As Zhao Yi had a complete understanding of Teacher Xue's character, he bluntly told him that he hadn't memorized some chemistry formulas yet and would be taking advantage of class time to review them.
In the afternoon, they had physics class taught by their head teacher.
During physics class, two problems were explained before students were given time for self-study.
Although Teacher Sun allowed Zhao Yi to slack off, he had no choice but to focus on writing his speech for tomorrow instead of continuing to study or sleep.
Lin Xiaoqing was also working on this task.
Lin Xiaoqing had already prepared her speech and was just making some slight revisions.
Zhao Yi, on the other hand, was writing on the spot.
Class was over.
Lin Xiaoqing held her revised speech, intending to show it to Teacher Sun. She stood up and saw Zhao Yi covering his work, laughing as she reminded him, "You should ask Teacher Sun to give you a copy of the speech from the past two years' College Entrance Examination conference!"
"No need!"
Zhao Yi looked up, handing the speech to Lin Xiaoqing, "Help me give this to Teacher Sun too."
"You're done writing?"
Lin Xiaoqing was surprised and scanned the words, which appeared jumbled and confusing. "Are you writing oracle bone script?"
"The fact that you can recognize it is really amazing! You should consider studying archaeology in the future."
Zhao Yi laughed in response.
"You should study archaeology!"
Lin Xiaoqing retorted before taking both speeches and heading towards the office. On the way, she couldn't help but take a look at Zhao Yi's speech:
"Respected teachers, dear classmates, and parents, my name is Zhao Yi, an ordinary student at High School No. 13."
"Today, I bring you a speech on the theme 'Dreams, Illuminate Life.' We have all been young and mature as the years go by..."
"Sword-sharpness comes from grinding; plum fragrance from harsh cold..."
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step..."
"A philosopher once said, 'In dreams, we walk many roads...'"
"Dreams are an eternal force! Dreams are passion and... Let us chase our youth together! Release our youth! Thank you, everyone!"
Reading between the lines and savoring each one.
Without realizing it, Lin Xiaoqing stopped in her tracks.
Though the writing on the paper was difficult to describe, the content was genuinely moving, infinitely better than her own speech.
"Zhao Yi wrote this in twenty minutes? Is his writing skill really that high?"
A questioning voice came from behind, "Lin Xiaoqing, what are you standing here for? Why aren't you going inside?"
It was Horse-face Xue.
Lin Xiaoqing quickly reacted, stepping inside to hand the speeches to Teacher Sun.
"Are they done?"
"Zhao Yi's is done too. He asked me to submit it for him."
Teacher Sun took the speeches and placed them on her desk. She first looked at the one written by Lin Xiaoqing and nodded in satisfaction. Then, she turned to Zhao Yi's messy handwriting, which was a bit frustrating.
Frowning, she patiently read a few lines, getting more and more into it and nodding in approval as she went on.
It wasn't long before Teacher Sun finished, handing the speeches back to Lin Xiaoqing and saying, "Zhao Yi's speech is fine as it is. For you, Xiaoqing, you still need to make some more revisions. It's better to add some embellishments and focus more on the fighting spirit of the College Entrance Examination."
Lin Xiaoqing lowered her head to acknowledge, her clenched fists betraying her discontent. She even crumpled Zhao Yi's speech into a ball.
Back in the classroom.
Lin Xiaoqing slapped the speech down in front of Zhao Yi, anger in her voice.
"What's the matter with you? You're so quick to anger!" Zhao Yi was unhappy, picking up his speech and trying to smooth it out as much as possible.
Most of the content had been learned before, so he simply drew from his memory to piece it together. But it was still his work from twenty minutes of effort!
Going by the income rate ten years later, an hour of serious work was worth fifty yuan, right?
Twenty minutes equaled twenty yuan!
That's right!
Zhao Yi poked Lin Xiaoqing with his hand, chuckling, "How about this, I'll sell you my speech for twenty yuan. No bargaining!"
"You couldn't pay me to take it!" Lin Xiaoqing snapped back.
"Tch!"
Not caring, Zhao Yi shrugged and muttered, "If it weren't for being short of money, I wouldn't even sell it to you! You'll regret it once it's gone!"
"I——Don't——Want——It!"
Lin Xiaoqing turned around and screamed in exasperation.
