Chapter 152: By What Right Do You Drive Us Away

However, two days later, Doctor Jiang became honest.

He truly could not write it out.

He took it to Doctor Wen and Doctor Cao to study together.

They actually managed to work out the answers to some of the problems, which were similar to what Yun Shu had written, but Yun Shu had just casually drawn a few lines to solve the problems, while they had calculated a whole stack of paper to finish.

In the end, Doctor Jiang had to admit, "Yun Shu has some real skill. No wonder His Highness and the Emperor had him come to teach Mathematics."

The three of them went to find Yun Shu together.

Yun Shu was fiddling with a small boat the size of a palm.

Seeing the three of them arrive, Yun Shu asked, "Do you have business with me?"

Doctor Jiang said hurriedly, "Ah, it's nothing major; if you are busy, we will wait until you are free to talk."

Yun Shu nodded.

At this moment, Doctor Cao asked, "You are working hard on the Steamship; for this afternoon's assessment, why don't I act as the proctor?"

Yun Shu had not known before that these three were so kind-hearted.

Facing Yun Shu's suspicious gaze, Doctor Cao said with a smile, "It's just that we were thinking that when you are free, you could tell us how to solve the problems on those test papers."

Yun Shu nodded: "Then I will trouble you; I estimate it will take another three days to finish the Steam Engine."

Doctor Jiang said hurriedly, "You are busy, you go ahead and be busy."

Saying this, Doctor Jiang took the stack of test papers away.

Those people in the Mathematics Class looked down on the test papers Yun Shu had created; if Yun Shu were proctoring, they probably wouldn't even bother to pick up their pens.

But now that it was Doctor Jiang, they still had to write.

It was just that, the Mathematics problems were fine; their Mathematics was already quite good, otherwise they wouldn't have been selected for the Science Class.

It was just the Physics; they stared at each other in blank dismay.

Only those who had flipped through the book "Basic Physics" could answer one or two questions.

But most of them were questions that felt somewhat familiar but which they couldn't figure out no matter what.

When the two hours were up, the group handed their test papers to Doctor Jiang; most of them had very ugly expressions on their faces.

Doctor Jiang frowned, "Why are all your Physics test papers blank? Is this looking down on Doctor Yun?"

The crowd did not dare to be arrogant in front of Doctor Jiang.

They only said, "These problems are too difficult."

Doctor Jiang did not believe it, borrowed a book from them, spent the time it takes for an incense stick to burn reading the book, and then took out a blank test paper and began to write.

Although there were several questions he didn't answer, the test paper could basically be filled out.

Doctor Jiang glared at them, "Don't look down on Doctor Yun just because he is young."

He forgot that a few days ago, he, Doctor Cao, and Doctor Wen all felt that Yun Shu was too young to shoulder such a heavy responsibility.

When Doctor Jiang brought the test papers over, he took a look; everyone had filled out the Mathematics test papers, but the Physics test papers were completely blank.

Yun Shu was going crazy inside; these people who didn't study properly and also wasted his time were simply outrageous.

When would he be able to use a Flush Toilet?

Yun Shu kept a cold face as he took the papers over and distributed them to everyone.

He said with dissatisfaction, "The Physics test papers are the simplest and most basic; I presume you must not have read the book."

The people below remained indifferent.

Yun Shu continued: "From now on, the Mathematics Class will have a small exam once a month; those who fail three times will automatically be removed from the Science Class."

These people were still waiting to learn Mathematics well to become officials.

"By what right do you drive us away?"

"It is not your place to make decisions at the Imperial Academy."

Yun Shu scanned the circle: "I do not teach trash. Those who don't want to leave, study hard for me!"

Daxia lacked science scholars; he couldn't waste too much time on them.

If you don't study, get out.

The crowd:???

A fifteen-year-old youth actually thought they were trash?!

Just as the crowd was about to protest, Doctor Jiang arrived.

Doctor Jiang frowned: "What are you all doing?"

The people below were like quails.

Only one person complained: "He said there will be a small exam once a month, and those who fail three times in a row will be driven out."

"He also said we are trash."

Doctor Jiang pondered: "Failing three times in a row means one's aptitude is poor; indeed, there is no need to continue teaching."

Seeing Doctor Jiang standing beside Yun Shu, the few did not dare to act presumptuously.

Doctor Jiang found a seat and sat down; several students looked over and had no choice but to straighten their backs and follow along with the lesson.

Yun Shu began to write and draw on the blackboard; fortunately, this blackboard was large enough, with two boards in total.

As he wrote, he said: "I will write the problem-solving logic for you; if there is anything you don't understand, ask me when I come over this afternoon."

"Additionally, the blackboard is limited; the problem-solving logic will be erased at noon, and I will teach Physics in the afternoon."

After finishing, Yun Shu left and went into his office to continue tinkering with the Steamship.

It was just a little bit more.

Perhaps if he stayed up late tonight, he could finish it.

On the other side, in the classroom, the twenty people looked at each other in dismay.

Did Yun Shu just write two blackboards full like that and then leave?

Some people couldn't be bothered to look at the blackboards, while others started writing down the problem-solving logic on them.

"Doctor Yun's problem-solving logic seems very ingenious; we calculated a whole bunch, yet overlooked the simplest method."

"Right, for the thirteenth question, I never thought it could be solved that way."

After Doctor Jiang left, there were a few disdainful voices.

"Heretical paths."

"He wrote this test paper, so he must know the simplest method."

"Yeah, it's just an ordinary test paper, not some difficult problem. Is anyone going out for drinks this afternoon? My treat!"

They were preparing to skip class directly.

The youngest, Zhou Jingyue, whispered a reminder: "We have Physics this afternoon. If we skip class and fail three consecutive exams, we'll have to pack our bags and leave. Who knows if those kicked out of the Science Class can even return to the Liberal Arts Class."

The older ones said: "What's difficult about that? If we all fail together, let's see how he kicks us out."

"Exactly, exactly. Is he going to lecture to the air?"

In the afternoon, when Yun Shu arrived, he said to everyone: "Are there any more questions about the Mathematics test paper from this morning?"

Everyone was silent.

Basically, there were no problems.

He had written it very thoroughly, and since these Mathematics problems were not difficult, everyone had understood them on their own.

Yun Shu then said: "Let us talk about Physics."

Yun Shu basically read straight from the book, but since the book had a lot of text and some diagrams were printed blurrily, Yun Shu redrew them.

He didn't care whether the people below understood or not; once he finished lecturing, that was it.

He really couldn't be bothered to deal with these old slippery rogues who bullied the weak and feared the strong; in any case, a group of people would enter the Science Class during the Imperial Examination, and he would deal with it then.

At this time, Yun Shu spoke at a steady pace, and quite a few people below were listening; for those who didn't understand, they didn't ask any questions either.

After all, things had been very unpleasant before.

They felt that speaking up would be admitting defeat.

Yun Shu lectured through half the book in the afternoon, taking only one hour.

Yun Shu said: "Since there are no other questions, redo the test paper yourselves; I will go over the test paper tomorrow."

Saying this, he turned and left, as if he didn't want to waste a single second on them.

Yun Shu spent two days and finally finished making the Steamship.

The first thing he did was go to the Eastern Palace to find Yan Ning.
