Chapter 19: Full marks in both tests
Chen Wen Zhong thought that the provincial first place might be other schools in the city, but he did not guess the county-level high school below.

For county high schools, the right thing to do is to concentrate on raising the undergraduate admission rate.

Students will not be allowed to participate in competitions at all.

There is no strength and resources to train competitive students.

The failure of Guyuan No. 1 High School last year is a good example of this.

But the reality is so unexpected.

No one would have thought that this year, the contestants from Guyuan No. 1 High School would win the only provincial first prize in the city.

He didn't even need to look for the name list when he grabbed it. He immediately saw the words "Guyuan County No. 1 Senior High School" written on the rightmost column of the table, because it appeared on the first line.

"Xu Yuan."

"Both the preliminary test and the supplementary test were given full marks."

“The result is the best in the province!”

Perhaps the result was too eye-catching, so Chen Wenzhong couldn't help but read it out loud.

The words Sun Xuehai said that day came to my mind again.

Facts have proved that the other party was not lying, and they had indeed cultivated the seeds for national awards in mathematics competitions.

But he didn't care at that time.

"The full marks in both tests are really amazing. I didn't expect that Guyuan would have such a dark horse this year. There was only one person participating in the competition, but he was able to enter the provincial team without any pressure."

Teacher Cheng next to him finally calmed down at this time, and gave a very high evaluation with envy.

After all, as a competition teacher, who doesn’t want to have such students?

With things developing like this, Chen Wenzhong was in no mood to continue looking at the results of his own contestants. He handed the list back to Teacher Cheng and said, "You can announce this list later."

"Okay, Principal." Teacher Cheng nodded and took it.

Then he thought of something and blurted out, "I remember the competition materials they used seemed to be the same as ours."

Upon hearing this, Teacher Cheng echoed.

"It's the same as us. It was you, the principal, who agreed to it."

"Ah~"

Chen Wen Zhong finally sighed, his face full of emotion.

"Sun Xuehai really picked up a good seedling this time. I will definitely show off next time I come to the city for a meeting."

After saying that, he turned around and left with his hands behind his back.

Seeing this scene, Teacher Cheng shook his head and smiled, then walked towards the teaching building.

No matter what, the first place in this league is from their Pingzhou students. No matter which school they come from, it is a proud thing in the provincial education system.

Congratulations should definitely be given.

……

"Teacher Wang, did you see that? Xu Yuan got full marks in both tests, and his scores ranked first in the province!"

"We haven't had this kind of result in Pingzhou City for a long time."

At the same time, in the principal's office of Guyuan County No. 1 Senior High School, Sun Xuehai was holding the newly released list of league winners and couldn't let it go. The word "happy" seemed to be written on his face.

In front of Wang Qingtao, he did not hide his joy at all.

To be honest, he hasn't slept well since the end of the league, and he is often worried that Xu Yuan's results will not meet his expectations.

Now that it has finally become a foregone conclusion, he can finally feel a huge sense of relief.

"Yes, Principal. I was also shocked when I saw the list." Wang Qingtao also had a bright smile on his face. He took over the conversation and echoed with deep understanding.

Although he had great confidence in Xu Yuan, he guessed that the results would be good this time.

But getting first place in the province with full marks in both tests was a bit beyond his expectations. He could only say that he underestimated Xu Yuan's strength and talent. "This kid didn't disappoint."

At this time, Sun Xuehai praised again, and then said to Wang Qingtao: "Then let's not delay any more. I want to announce this good news on the spot."

They were both extremely excited when they saw the list, but Xu Yuan, the protagonist, didn't know it yet.

We must convey this joy as soon as possible.

"I guess this will soon become big news in our school." Wang Qingtao responded with a smile.

Sun Xuehai didn't delay any longer. He took the list and stood up, pretending to walk towards the door.

He took only two steps before stopping again and looking at Wang Qingtao.

"You have trained a provincial team student for the school this time, and the school will definitely give you corresponding rewards."

"There's no need for a reward, Principal. Actually, I didn't help much." Hearing the principal's words, Wang Qingtao hurriedly explained.

His words truly came from the heart.

The main reason why Xu Yuan can achieve such excellent results is his own talent and hard work.

Since there was no competition class organized, he always felt unworthy of receiving this award. Moreover, seeing his students win the first prize in the province made up for the regret left over from last year.

However, Sun Xuehai didn't care about that. He patted Wang Qingtao on the shoulder and encouraged him:
"Don't be so modest in front of me. Maybe next year our school's math competition class will be handed over to you."

After saying that, he walked out of the office first.

Wang Qingtao stood there in a daze for two seconds, and when he reacted, his face suddenly lit up with joy.

He quickly followed.

If the school can really continue to organize competition classes, he will undoubtedly support it.

It is currently class time, and all the students in Class 1 of Grade 3 are sitting upright and listening attentively. It can be said that there is not a single student who is absent-minded.

"I don't want to see anyone make grammatical mistakes next time. This is not a mistake you should make."

Li Yan looked around at everyone on the podium with sharp eyes, still maintaining her usual teaching style.

But just as he was about to continue speaking, he noticed two familiar figures through the window, and they were coming towards the classroom.

So she had to stop teaching temporarily, put down the textbook in her hand and walked to the door to greet them.

"Principal Sun and Teacher Wang, do you have something to say?"

"Teacher Wang and I are here to announce some news. It won't take up much of your time, Teacher Li." Sun Xuehai did not put on airs as a principal at all. He explained the situation to Li Yan first before taking up class time.

Although Li Yan didn't know what had happened, she felt that it must be something special for the principal to come in person.

Upon hearing this, he immediately stepped aside and left the podium to Sun Xuehai.

Whenever Li Yan teaches a class, the classroom is always quiet, so Sun Xuehai doesn't have to control the situation.

As soon as he walked to the podium, he got straight to business.

"Sorry to bother you guys for a moment. I have some news to announce here today."

"The results of the high school mathematics league held in the provincial capital last month have been officially announced today. Among them, Xu Yuan, a participant from our school, achieved a perfect score in both tests in the league."

“And will represent our province in the national finals in January.”

"Let us give a warm round of applause to congratulate Xu Yuan."

Every word Sun Xuehai spoke was like a bomb exploding in the classroom.

Almost all the students in the class widened their eyes, unable to imagine that Xu Yuan could have done such a big thing without realizing it.

After all, Xu Yuan no longer focused on reviewing mathematics during this period, and everyone thought that he had no hope for the league and planned to concentrate on preparing for the college entrance examination.

Now that I tell them that Xu Yuan actually got full marks, it turns out that I am the clown.

　The data on Tuesday is quite important, so please pay attention and read it.
