Chapter 110: A Monster-Level Genius

Inside the classroom, all the students had already focused their minds, directing their attention to the exam paper.

The invigilators, however, were the exception; they…

They had been keeping an eye on Lu Yu.

Even though the vice principal had personally brought Lu Yu over just now, they still felt… Lu Yu didn't look like a college‑entrance‑exam candidate.

He's really too young.

Kids like this usually have just started school, right?

Does he know the multiplication table? Has he learned all the characters? Can he recite a few ancient poems?

What qualifies a child like this to take the college entrance exam?

This isn't prejudice, after all… they've truly never seen someone so talented.

So…

From time to time they would shift their attention onto Lu Yu.

The invigilators were actually afraid that Lu Yu would grow impatient and suddenly burst into tears.

After all… he's still such a young child.

However…

Lu Yu showed nothing unusual; on the contrary, he seemed to be seriously working on the test.

His eyes were fixed on the paper, his expression earnest and solemn, one hand pressing the paper, the other holding a pen—he looked very much like someone doing the exam.

If it weren't for his tiny hands and small stature…

After more than half an hour, the invigilators still couldn't resist their curiosity; they deliberately lingered behind Lu Yu to see how he was answering.

Upon looking, the invigilators were stunned.

Lu Yu's answer sheet was… completely filled with answers!

This…

The invigilators were shocked.

But he quickly recovered.

Why?

He thought of a possibility.

Lu Yu was basically just scribbling randomly.

How long has the exam actually been going?

Half an hour!

Within half an hour, can any examinee finish all the questions except the essay?

Even a genius from Magic City No. 1 High couldn't manage that, could they?

So it's obvious—this kid is just doodling.

Lu Yu was merely filling in the answer sheet.

As expected… this is a farce.

The invigilator thought as much.

He no longer intended to keep observing Lu Yu; it would just be a waste of time.

But then, at that moment, the invigilator noticed something off.

…

Lao Zhou was a senior Chinese teacher at Magic City No. 1 High; he had once earned the title of Special‑grade Teacher, making him a flagship teacher of the school.

He was Lu Yu's invigilator.

As a Chinese teacher, while invigilating the Chinese exam, he naturally would glance at the test content.

Lao Zhou found that today's Chinese exam was one level harder than in previous years.

He was a little worried about his own students.

But… he also knew that worrying now wouldn't help.

Better to just do his job properly—keep invigilating!

Holding that thought, his gaze fell on Lu Yu.

Then he went behind Lu Yu and saw Lu Yu's answer sheet.

Just as he thought Lu Yu was doodling and about to leave, he saw Lu Yu's answers.

Lao Zhou discovered that Lu Yu's answer to the first question actually matched his own!

This must be a coincidence!

It's Lu Yu's luck!

Thinking that, Lao Zhou couldn't help but keep looking, and then he saw the second answer.

This surely is also a coincidence.

How could this kid possibly get two questions right in a row?

You should know these two questions—one is about polyphonic characters, the other about misspelled characters.

The difficulty isn't too high, but they are quite misleading.

Lao Zhou almost got tripped up by them himself.

So… Lao Zhou continued on to check the answer to the third question.

This should also be a coincidence, right?

Lao Zhou thought that, then he looked at the fourth question, the fifth question…

The same!

All are the same!

Exactly ten multiple-choice questions, and Lu Yu's answers were actually all the same as his!

No! Not all ten questions were the same; on the seventh question, Lu Yu's answer differed from the answer in Old Zhou's mind.

But after Old Zhou carefully calculated, he discovered……

Lu Yu was correct, he was wrong!

This……

Old Zhou's mouth gaped wide, he almost let out a scream.

One question is a coincidence, two questions are chance, three questions, four questions…… what about ten questions?

Old Zhou doesn't believe there is anyone in this world whose luck is that good.

This world indeed has no one whose luck is that good.

So……

The truth is only one.

This child, this seven-year-old child, really…… really can do these questions.

But……

How is this possible?

For students who have studied for over ten years, these questions aren't considered simple, yet this child can get them all right?

This isn't even the most terrifying.

The most terrifying is that this child actually got so many questions right in an extremely short time!

You know, Old Zhou actually only looked at these multiple-choice questions; he didn't even have time to look at the reading comprehension afterward.

That is to say……

This child's ability is stronger than Old Zhou's?

Thinking this, Old Zhou couldn't help but the corners of his mouth tremble wildly.

Just what kind of person is this child?

He couldn't have known the answers beforehand, memorized them, and is now just writing them down from memory, could he?

But how could such a thing happen?

So……

Is this child an absolute genius?

Right!

Just now the vice principal personally brought this child over, so……

Thinking this, Old Zhou couldn't help but look again at Lu Yu's test paper.

Lu Yu was writing the essay.

Old Zhou glanced at Lu Yu's essay a few times, and he was completely stunned.

If the earlier multiple-choice questions could still be called luck, then in the essay section it's absolutely impossible to fake.

What did Old Zhou see?

"The heavens move vigorously; thus the gentleman constantly strives for self-improvement..."

Classical Chinese!

This is the first sentence Lu Yu wrote at the beginning; this sentence isn't particularly surprising, after all it's a phrase from the textbook that students all memorize.

But……

Afterwards, Lu Yu's essay was written in the style of ancient Chinese.

Moreover, aside from this sentence not being original, the rest……

At the very least, all the content Old Zhou sees now…… all of it…… was casually written down by Lu Yu!

It really was casual, because Old Zhou saw Lu Yu never stopping to think, his pen kept moving.

Old Zhou couldn't help but gulp hard.

He didn't know what he was seeing, so he simply couldn't believe what he saw.

He felt he was dreaming.

But this dream feels too real.

……

Fifty-two minutes.

This is the time Lu Yu took to finish the entire test paper.

This is the time Old Zhou personally witnessed.

Fifty-two minutes, a seven-year-old child completed a National College Entrance Examination Chinese language test!

Old Zhou has every reason to believe that if it weren't for having to write the essay, and if it weren't because Lu Yu's writing speed isn't fast enough, roughly…… roughly Lu Yu would have finished the whole test paper in no more than half an hour!

More importantly……

Old Zhou discovered that, within his own understanding, Lu Yu's answers were all correct!

Regarding this, Old Zhou no longer knows what to say or what expression to make.

Genius?

No!

How could this possibly be genius?

This is clearly a monster, okay?
