Chapter 259: Top Ten (truncated title)


    Feng Wu didnt pay any attention. She had never considered Jasmine a friend, so she didnt care about the new attitude.


    Through the upheavals caused by Yanrans appearance, another semester passed.


    The freshman ss were finally able to qualify for seats. It wasnt ranked throughpetition but through aprehensive analysis of their written test andbat results.


    Feng Wu was ced in freshman year - 10th seat, not because her strength was lower than anyone elses, but because her written was so bad.


    She was first in Sword division forbat experience, but her results in nobat areas were atrocious. Math, geography, and history were great, but hernguage tests were full of xs. Some were even zeros. The gap was blindingly crazy.


    Student Feng Wu, please exin what is going on. Why are your ancient, dwarven, and dragonnguages so bad? All zeros, even though 80% of these tests are multiple choice questions. Why did you leave them empty? Even if you randomly guess and fill in something, you wouldnt get zero points!


    Take a four question multiple choice question. Just filling in any random choice would have meant a 25% chance of being correct.


    Feng Wu didnt even get the multiple-choice questions right.


    The teacher was so angry she almost pped the table. What was this? It was obvious this child was doing well in all her other subjects. Why did she be like this when it came tonguages? Outstanding Feng Wu did well in all her other sses except fornguage. The teacher got a toothache just thinking about it. The other teachers looked at her like she didnt care about her students.


    Feng Wu kept her head down as she was dragged into the office for some education. She only raised her head at the question. She blinked, her pair of big ck eyes puzzled. Teacher said, If you dont understand, leave it empty. Do not guess. Guessing isnt good for study.


    The teacher didnt know how to reply. It was a severe blow. She <i>had</i> said that to the ss, but this was the first time a student actually followed her instructions. She felt like Feng Wu was using what she said in ss to gag her. She was stuck, not sure what to say, so she dismissed Feng Wu after a few more customary words.


    Feng Wu walked out and politely turned around to close the door. She was unhappy. It wasn''t like she wanted to do poorly innguages, but her problem was, no matter how she tried, she just couldnt understand them.


    Jier and Ink tried tofort her, telling her not to worry. Chances of her encountering a dragon n of the ancient ruins were slim. Chances of her encountering a dwarf n was even smaller. So what did it matter if she couldnt master thenguages?


    Students had to chose threenguages to study. There were more than a dozennguages and scripts to chose from, it was just that Feng Wu, even after a year of study, failed to understand the most basic aspects.


    Even if she didnt get first ce, she ced high enough to earn a spot in the third-floor cafeteria. She could eat as much as she wanted for free. The thought of all that delicious food made herpletely forget about the scolding from hernguage teacher.


    Feng Wu went to pick up Little Bun, who had grown quite big, and together the two went to the cafeteria for dinner. Little Buns appearance in the cafeteria didnt shock anyone. Feng Wu had taken to carrying him cradled against her body at the three and five oclock position ever since he began eating more solid foods.


    Little Bun was adorable and easily attracted girls. They just loved him to bits. Even the cafeteria auntie gave Feng Wu bigger portions when she saw Little Bun. She knew Little Bun loved custard so she always saved some for him.


    Xiao Ye, I gained weight again. A girl, upon seeing Little Bun, immediately walked over and touched his adorable cheeks.


    Ah! So cute! Why is Xiao Ye so cute?!


    If only my future child would be so cute.


    Xiao Wu, are you going to the third floor?


    Yes, the top ten list came out today and my name was on it, so Im eligible to go. Im going for dinner.


    Congrattions Xiao Wu! Now you can eat delicious food!


    Remember to tell us what the third floor looks like. We enrolled together, but I dont know what the third floor looks like yet.


    More people crowded around Feng Wu. Some wanted to fuss over Little Bun, others wanted to congratte Feng Wu. Feng Wu nodded to theirments.


    Everyone had gotten used to Feng Wus mannerism so no one was offended at her unenthusiastic response.


    Feng Wu was going to the third floor, so naturally Little Bun would follow, however the girls were reluctant to let him go. Xiao Ye was just an adorable baby. Something cute was alwaysing out of his mouth.


    They were all disappointed about not seeing the little guy for dinner in the future. But even if they couldnt eat together, they would still run into each other at school.


    The cafeteria auntie reminded Feng Wu to pick up a custard for Xiao Ye before leavingter. Feng Wu nodded with bright eyes. The auntie was a good person.


    The most elite students at Xingguang had always used the third floor as a gathering ce, after all only the top ten of each grade were allowed entrance.[notes]


    Suddenly today there was a strangebination of a dark haired lolli and a blond haired chubby little bun. The pair made an eye-catchingbination. The uniform showed she was a first year. Being able to enter the third floor also meant she was one of the newly minted top ten in the freshman ss.


    Little Bun stared curiously at everyone around him. Though it was a big room, because of the entry requirement, there were few people about. Little Bun struggled in his mothers arms. Mom, down.
