The dean’s announcement caused an uproar in the hall.
The students were shocked.
When the scores were released, a lot of students had doubts on the authenticity of Ye Tianxin’s grades. However, Ye Tianxin’s bold move had dispelled the doubts of 80 percent of the students.
Logically speaking, Ye Tianxin did not have to prove herself to anyone. If they didn’t believe in her abilities, it’s on them.
But Ye Tianxin decided that she wanted to prove them wrong.
After all, she was confident with her grades. She worked hard to achieve those.
Moreover, this proved that while Ye Tianxin might not have been serious in her studies in the past, if she were, she would occupy the top spot.
However, there were also some students who thought that Ye Tianxin was trying to seek attention and popularity by doing this.
“I think there’s no problem with Ye Tianxin’s grades. I remember that Ye Tianxin’s grades were also very good in middle school. She used to be a topnotcher every year.”
“Now that you say that, I remember it, too. Ye Tianxin’s results seemed to only have gotten worse after high school.”
Ye Youran stared at Ye Tianxin’s face. Ye Tianxin’s face looked especially stunning under the hall lights.
Ye Tianxin was like a star, shining brightly as she stood there quietly.
Ye Youran clenched her fists tightly, her cheeks were red with anger.
No. It was impossible.
Ye Tianxin must have cheated.
Would she be able to achieve such good grades if she didn’t cheat?
That was a very absurd thought.
If Ye Tianxin managed to improve by so much in such a short time, what did that mean?
Did that mean that she, Ye Youran, was not as good as Ye Tianxin?
No. She refused to admit that.
It could not be!
“Xu Jingjing from Class One, please come on stage.”
Xu Jingjing from Class One was a chubby girl. She was number one in her class.
Xu Jingjing felt a little uneasy being the first person to ask Ye Tianxin a question. She stood on the stage and looked at the crowd below it. She was nervous. She secretly glanced at Ye Tianxin.
She saw Ye Tianxin standing at the corner gracefully. There was a diplomatic expression on Ye Tianxin’s exquisite face that Xu Jingjing had never seen before.
“I will ask you a math question. Ye Tianxin, please try to solve this.”
Ye Tianxin took the math book that Xu Jingjing handed over. She looked at the question in the book and smiled confidently.
“I happen to know how to answer this question.”
Ye Tianxin sat down behind a desk that had been prepared for her and began to answer the question on a sheet of paper.
Everyone was silent inside the hall.
The students held their breaths.
Ye Tianxin handed the math book back to Xu Jingjing in less than two minutes later.
Xu Jingjing looked at the solution in the math book and was very surprised. There were three different ways to solve this question.
She had only known one when she had first received the question.
But how… How did Ye Tianxin manage to solve the question in such a short time?
Could it be that she really was a genius?
“The answer is correct.” Xu Jingjing said. Ye Youran’s body shook slightly.
“Xiong Jiaying from Class Nine, please come on stage.”
Xiong Jiaying went up on stage and handed over a chemistry question to Ye Tianxin. Ye Tianxin answered the question quietly just as she did before.
When Ye Tianxin was done answering the question, Xiong Jiaying looked at the answer and said, “The answer is correct.”
Ye Tianxin answered seven other questions and got all of them right as well.
