Lin Chen was just flipping through a book, completely ignoring Wei Dayong's lecture. He lifted his head with a baffled look at the blackboard, "What problem?"

Wei Dayong sneered, "You're such a waste, nothing but a shit-making machine, too rotted to carve. Even if I told you the problem, could you do it?"

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly as he stood up and walked straight toward the podium.

Seeing Lin Chen's menacing approach, Wei Dayong's face turned pale with fright.

He had personally witnessed Lin Chen teaching a lesson to a few hoodlums that day and was well aware of his capabilities.

"What, what are you going to do?" Wei Dayong backed up several steps in panic.

"What am I going to do?" Lin Chen huffed coldly and continued walking toward the podium step by step.

"Lin Chen, I'm warning you, this is a school," Wei Dayong said as he retreated.

Seeing Wei Dayong trembling all over, the classroom fell silent.

Wei Dayong often scolded and even hit students in class, and many were afraid of him. Seeing him shaking in fear of Lin Chen, many felt a secret thrill.

Lin Chen suddenly reached out, causing Wei Dayong to flinch and shrink his neck.

Bursts of laughter erupted in the classroom. Lin Chen did not hit Wei Dayong but snatched the chalk from his hand.

"Isn't it just solving a problem? Such an easy question is too simple for a top student like me," Lin Chen said with a sneer after glancing at the problem on the blackboard.

Wei Dayong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lin Chen didn't hit him, but he burst out laughing when he heard Lin Chen calling himself a top student.

"You such a poor student daring to claim to be a top student is hilarious. If you can solve the problem on the blackboard, I'll eat this piece of chalk," Wei Dayong said with a sneer.

The problems on the blackboard were hand-picked tough ones, that not even the best students in the class could solve them all, let alone a poor student like Lin Chen.

Lin Chen, holding the chalk, stood in front of the blackboard. Groups of formulas were already emerging in his mind.

"If you can't do it, Lin Chen, step down and stop embarrassing yourself," Wei Dayong sneered.

"Embarrassing myself? Open your damn eyes and watch," Lin Chen snorted and started vigorously writing on the blackboard.

Wei Dayong sneered as he watched Lin Chen scribbling away at the blackboard.

This problem required extensive computation to come up with a solution, and there's no way Lin Chen could answer so quickly without doing the calculations.

He must be clueless and just scribbling nonsense on there.

The other students in the classroom shook their heads; this problem simply couldn't be solved by mental math.

However, as Wei Dayong looked closely at the answers on the blackboard, he was stunned.

How is this possible, how did he work it out?

Wei Dayong stared blankly at Lin Chen, a look of shock in his eyes. Impossible, he must have memorized the answers.

Confidently handing the chalk back to Wei Dayong, Lin Chen said, "Mr. Wei, I've finished solving the problem. You can eat this piece of chalk now."

"Lin Chen, you scribble an answer and ask the teacher to eat chalk? That's just ridiculous," Tang Yun said coldly.

"Whether it's the correct answer, you can ask Mr. Wei," Lin Chen said mockingly, looking at Wei Dayong's shocked face.

"Teacher, tell him the answers are all wrong," Tang Yun sneered.

Wei Dayong opened his mouth, "His answers are all correct."

The classroom instantly fell silent, everyone staring dumbstruck at Lin Chen.

Even the class top student Zhang Yue was shocked.

As Lin Chen was solving the problem, she was also working on it. But while she had just started the first step, Lin Chen had already completed the whole problem.

"How did he do it?" Her eyes fixed tightly on Lin Chen, Zhang Yue was consumed with curiosity.

Zhang Yue was one of the four school beauties, not only owning a beautiful face and a figure to die for but also dominating as the top academic performer of the school, reigning at the top of the school's leaderboard all year round.

Wei Dayong's face darkened as he gritted his teeth and said, "You must have done this problem before and memorized the answer. Try solving this one."

With that, Wei Dayong wrote another problem on the blackboard, a problem that was beyond the scope of their current studies, impossible to solve with the knowledge they had learned so far.

Wei Dayong did this on purpose, hoping to take down Lin Chen's arrogant momentum.

Lin Chen looked at the problem on the blackboard, the corners of his mouth lifted: "Teacher Wei, you think such a simple problem can stump me? That's just too naive."

"Simple?" When the other students in the class saw the problem on the blackboard, they were all stunned.

None of the students in the class knew how to solve this problem, yet Lin Chen, who had always been at the bottom of the class, claimed it was simple!

"Alright, today I'll make you lose convincingly." Lin Chen picked up the chalk, and his hand flew across the board; this time, he quickly wrote out the answer to the problem.

This time, Wei Dayong was completely dumbfounded. The problem was beyond the scope of their studies, he had never taught it in class, so how could Lin Chen have solved it so quickly?

"Is the answer to this problem correct?" This time, it was Zhang Yue who spoke.

"Correct!" Wei Dayong's face looked terrible. While the previous problem might have been memorized, this one was impossible for Lin Chen to have seen before.

"Teacher, isn't this problem beyond our scope?" Zhang Yue asked, her face flushing.

As a top student, Zhang Yue felt defeated for the first time because she couldn't solve the problem herself.

"Ding dong, you have gained a mission: Become the idol of academic top student Zhang Yue through your profound knowledge," said a voice from the system in Lin Chen's mind at that moment.

"Become the idol of a top student?" Lin Chen's gaze fell on Zhang Yue.

As their eyes met, Lin Chen saw a trace of fervor in hers.

Perhaps becoming an idol of a top student wasn't that difficult, Lin Chen's mouth curved up slightly.

He actually got it right.

He actually solved a problem that was beyond the scope?

Wei Dayong stared at Lin Chen blankly, almost unable to believe what was happening before his eyes.

Did he just calculate all those problems in his head? How is that possible,

Was this the same person who had always dragged the entire class down?

Was this the underachiever who had held back the whole class?

Not only Wei Dayong and Zhang Yue were shocked, but all the classmates also had stunned expressions on their faces.

Just then, the bell for the end of class rang, and Wei Dayong's face turned red as if grasping at a lifesaver: "Class dismissed."

"Teacher Wei, remember what you said a moment ago—if I could solve that problem, you would eat that piece of chalk." Lin Chen said with a smile.

Wei Dayong's step faltered, and he turned around awkwardly: "I was just joking a moment ago."

As Wei Dayong turned to flee, Lin Chen suddenly bellowed, "Wei Dayong!"

Wei Dayong, hearing his name, instinctively turned his head: "Ah!"

As his mouth opened, suddenly a piece of chalk shot from Lin Chen's hand straight into his mouth.

"Cough cough!"

Wei Dayong coughed violently a few times and gagged, trying to spit out the chalk, but it seemed to have eyes, burrowing straight down his throat.

"You, you bastard." Wei Dayong was completely enraged.

Lin Chen sneered: "Teacher Wei, you were the one who said it—if I got the problem right, you would eat the chalk. How can a teacher go back on his word?"

"You, fine, I'll remember this." Wei Dayong felt a wave of nausea and hurriedly ran toward the bathroom.
