When system cheat becomes rampant!

Yang Hua was in high spirits!

Although he had been shocked by Xiang Beifei's score, had made a fool of himself by making some snide remarks, and then had his face slapped hard by the reality, so what?

If Xiang Beifei scored high, then so be it!

He wasn't at a loss at all!

"You might think I would feel ashamed for what I just did, but you would be wrong."

In this world, things like face aren't important.

System tasks are the real deal!

Xiang Beifei scored 732 points, which meant 732 points were added to his teacher prestige value!

Not only that, but because the top scorer of the school was from his class, he was granted an additional 10,000 points—for a total of 10,732 points!

He only had an R-level system, not as high as Li Nanxing's S-level, and since many outsiders generally pay more attention to the name of the school rather than the classroom, he didn't earn as many system points as Li Nanxing did with his S-level system.

But it was enough to make a fortune.

All the students in his class had contributed to his teacher prestige value, with Xiang Beifei adding the most. In total, the class contributed 41,544 points!

Delightful!

"Hello, Professor Yang, we meet again. Do you remember me? I'm Yu Lei, a reporter from the Liangzhou Strait Metropolitan Daily. We met on the System Awakening day," said a person who looked like a reporter, who had approached him.

This man wore glasses, had a crew cut, and sported a jacket over his shirt; he thrust a large microphone in front of Yang Hua.

"Oh, it's you."

Yang Hua remembered Yu Lei. Reporters usually showed up during the System Awakening and when high school exam results came out.

[Realm: Mid Phase of Qi-Controlling]

As a senior reporter from the small TV station in the western district, Yu Lei needed to dig up information that could make the headlines, completing tasks by pushing news to the forefront.

The reporters were also itching to break a major story; if a school reported the Awakening of an SR talent, that would be explosive news, and they would definitely want to secure the exclusive.

Before the System Awakening ceremony, Yu Lei had been staking out early, interviewing all the class homeroom teachers in advance to prepare, and Yang Hua was one of those he interviewed.

Unfortunately, the news of that day wasn't eye-catching; Luhe High School had no Awakeners with SR talent. The only thing of note was Xiang Beifei's Thunder Stone—just when everyone thought they were about to witness a phoenix rise from the grass nest, it turned out to be a wild goose chase.

This kind of news merely caused a small ripple in the pond, neither here nor there. Although it was reported, the heat didn't pick up.

Today, with the college entrance examination results released, Yu Lei, as a reporter with a news headline-type system who had undergone Awakening, naturally wanted to cover the conditions of the examinees.

Initially, he staked out another high school in the western district, since he believed that school had traditionally performed better than Luhe High School, with last year's top scholar of Liangzhou coming from that school. The odds of achieving high results were seen as greater there.

Unfortunately, he set his sights on the wrong target this year, but he soon found out that a candidate from Luhe High School scored 732 this year, holding the top original score in the whole Jiuzhou!

And such a high-scoring candidate was only an N-level Awakener!

N-level! 732 points! The first in original score! Outranked by candidates who received bonus points! Unable to attend elite universities!

All these were hot topics fit for making the headlines!

Yu Lei immediately smelled the news value, and with his years of experience as a journalist and understanding of the market news, he brewed up in his mind the sort of press release that would create a sensation and attract society's attention!

"Shocking! A candidate with 732 points rejected by nine elite universities!"

"Candidate with 732 points unable to attend elite universities, the reason is..."

He thought through the way to write the article, planning to criticise from three levels, four perspectives, and five points of view the unreasonable practices of the nine elite universities in admitting Awakeners. He then aimed to introduce Xiang Beifei's difficult journey in education, condemning the irrational phenomena in the assessment system, perfectly creating a media storm!

If such an article were to be published, it would definitely spark intense discussions, securing a top spot on the hot search lists of major websites and making news headlines with no issues. This would assuredly earn him a hefty amount of system value!

But sadly, by the time he arrived at Luhe High School, he couldn't find Xiang Beifei, so Yu Lei immediately turned to Yang Hua, preparing to get some information about Xiang Beifei from him first.

"Professor Yang, I heard that Xiang Beifei was brought up by you. Can you tell me what kind of student he usually is?" Yu Lei eagerly inquired.

What kind of student was Xiang Beifei?

A glint of cunning flashed in Yang Hua's eyes!

Being Xiang Beifei's homeroom teacher and seeing him score such unimaginable results wasn't something he had expected. Normally, he always found various faults in Xiang Beifei, constantly berating him.

Just moments ago, he spoke so rudely in front of Xiang Qingde.

However, now that a reporter was interviewing him, how could he reveal those things?

As Xiang Beifei's homeroom teacher who had produced a top scholar for the school, if this made the news, it would undoubtedly elevate his own status!

Even if Xiang Beifei couldn't enter the elite universities, so what? It was talent that blocked him from those universities, not something he could influence; after all, high school teaches academic knowledge, which is linked to the teaching ability of teachers!

If other parents were to hear that he has taught a top scholar, wouldn't they break down doors to cram their children into his class? He could then handpick those students with good academic performance. Every year during the college entrance exams, he would be able to collect a major wave of teacher prestige value!

Yang Hua keenly seized the opportunity!

He immediately put on a smile, looking radiant and said,

"That's right, Xiang Beifei, the student, I have always had high hopes for him! His past academic performance wasn't very promising, but I constantly encouraged him, telling him not to be discouraged. I helped him plug the gaps in his knowledge, and his progress was rapid. You could say that his achievement of such high scores today is the result of our joint efforts."

Facing the camera, Yang Hua spoke with confidence and sincerity, attributing Xiang Beifei's high scores to his own efforts.

He didn't need to worry about what Xiang Beifei thought, regardless of whatever grievances they had; those were private matters. In front of the camera, he naturally had to say nice things.

He was certain that if Xiang Beifei was interviewed and asked if he was thankful to his teacher, even if Xiang Beifei held considerable resentment, he would only be able to say thank you in front of the camera. Otherwise, such a top scholar could easily be branded as ungrateful. Read today on m,v,l,e,mpyr

From any angle, being extremely strict as a teacher, nitpicking every day, verbally scolding students, looking down on them, could all be framed as a form of motivation and packaged as the "strict teacher produces outstanding students" teaching method which no one could refute.

Yang Hua had placed himself on the moral high ground!
