Chapter 555: Test result (5)

Support Ex-Rank

Year One Class Zero immediately started preparing for the second semester’s final exam.

There were kids who went to general enemy studies like Hani, but when our study time overlaps, we basically gather and study together.

“Then we’re 11 people in the study group, right? It’s going to be hard to find a place.”

“We can’t really talk while studying in the study rooms at school…”

It’s good that our class attendance has improved, but problems also arise.

We studied at Kim Yuri’s house in the past, but things have changed now.

Kim Yuri’s father was hospitalized and her mother was often away to take care of him, but now, her father has recovered and was discharged from the hospital.

Kim Yuri said she wanted to introduce us to them, so I think it would be okay to stay there for one day, but it’s a bit too much to have energetic high school players in their home when her father is still recuperating.

This is what I prepared for in advance.

“I made reservations for the Jiikhoe Study Room, Simulator Room, and a study cafe. Only dormitory students can use the Jiikhoe Hall, but you can use the cafe anytime. I’ll tell you the study room number and password.”

“It’s a relief you made a reservation, Euishin-ah! I haven’t thought of that at all, sorry.”

Our class president apologized sincerely.

I told her it was okay because I know how busy she was and she was doing her best with everything else.

Meanwhile, upon the mention of the study cafe, Mok Wooram seriously agonized.

“The Vice President is well prepared. Thank you. Then I’ll go to a part-time job for a while to pay for the study cafe.”

“Our study sessions are counted as class activities, so we can use the budget allocated to our class.”

Our class budget remains ample, so there’s no need for the pushover Mok Wooram to work during the exam period.

Basically, it was Kim Yuri who manages the budget.

With how well our talented class president managed it, we have plenty of funds even after preparing for the festival in luxury.

‘Come to think of it, I heard that this year’s Eungwang High class budgets have been increased. Maybe Hwang Jiho did it?’

The rich old man enjoying his high school life would’ve done so.

This tiger Hwang Jiho would throw more money if he wanted.

Anyway, I made a reservation in advance because I knew it would be difficult to secure a place to study together with the number of people in our class.

I’m glad I made that decision.

The Jiikhoe study room, simulator room, and study cafes around the school are always fully-booked during this season.

After class, our class visited the study cafe that I booked.

I could see people wearing our school uniform all over the cafe.

“Wow, there are a lot of people. The facilities are good… How did you make a reservation here?”

“I made an early reservation.”

This is the study cafe that I often visit when I meet Yeom Junyeol and Cheon Dongha so I am a regular.

I knew the peak season and off-season for sure, so I succeeded in making a reservation at the right time.

There were simple amenities inside the study room.

Capsule coffee machines, mini ovens, relaxation couch, and blankets were provided for students who planned on staying up all night.

Of course, some sleep would be sacrificed while studying.

I was a bit worried because there were kids in our class whose grades are at risk.

I should help the kids study so they can sleep during the exam period/

“Shall we take a mock test for the general subjects first?”

“Huh? You want to start with a mock test?”

“There were a lot of kids who weren’t in the study group last time… Hmm, I’m planning to study in groups after seeing our approximate grades through the pop quiz app first.”

Kim Yuri’s words slightly embarrassed Dokgo Miro, who wasn’t at the study group last time.

Still, I followed Kim Yuri’s lead as the party leader of this study group.

When each person sat at the large conference table at the center of the room, a partition was installed.

It is unlikely, but I rented the large room in case our other classmates would’ve started attending school.

The kids who looked into the test app seemed nervous.

In particular, some kids whose grades were at risk showed their solemnity.

Beep beep!

After a while, an alarm rang off signifying the end of the quiz.

The answer sheet in the application was closed off.

Maeng Hyodon was sweating a lot, and Kwon Lena was sighing deeply.

The two seem to be in danger.

It seems like Maeng Hyodon was clueless about many of the topics, while Kwon Lena was short on time.

“I’ll announce the results. Based on Eungwang High’s standards, the average score for the test in the app is 65 points!”

Usually, students get more than 70 percent average in mock tests like this, but the turnout tells us that we have to study more.

Upon reflection, there were a lot of tricky questions in the test.

But then, isn’t 5 points just a matter of a single question?

The impact of that one was significant though.

The result was a little lower than our last average.

The individual scores were like this;

[Jo Euishin – 100]

[Song Daesok – 95]

[Kim Yuri – 93]

[Mok Wooram – 90]

[Hani – 84]

[Min Geurin – 80]

[Saeum of April – 71]

[Dokgo Miro – 66]

[Hwang Jiho – 40]

[Lee Lena – 38]

[Maeng Hyodon – 22]

Joy and sorrow were shown in the kids’ faces upon seeing the results.

Some of the scores went down because the difficulty of the test was high, but if it goes on like this, students in our class would fail.

“Failed by one question…”

Kwon Lena, who experienced failing last time, dropped her head.

She was busy preparing for the festival event of the string club and our class, and the impact was reflected in her performance.

Maeng Hyodon looked devastated too.

Although Saeum of April’s score fell a little, he was satisfied that his score reached half despite his hard preparations for the festival.

Dokgo Miro seemed okay with hers too.

Personally, except for the kids who were in danger of failing, I was most worried about Hani.

Her grade wasn’t bad, but it’s not as good as it used to be.

‘Hani usually comes in second or third in our class…’

Considering the results of the test so far, I think she and I had similar grades.

It looks like her performance dropped a lot this time.

Maybe she couldn’t study because she’s busy with the Taehokwon club?

Somehow, it doesn’t feel like it.

Hani has been unstable even before we started preparing for the festival.

‘She’s been eating a lot of sweets and her grades have fallen after the match with Dokgo Miro. The result of the Regular Enemy Studies test wasn’t as good as before.’

Checking her test results, Hani didn’t say much but was lost in thought.

The top-ranked kids declined to speak, but the Song TB in our class did not.

Song Daesok spoke in a deeply lamented tone.

“Oh, what? I thought I got everything right. Looks like I got one wrong. Which one was it?”

I understand how it feels to miss a perfect score by one question, but I hope he waited for the frustrated kids to settle down first.

Before Min Geurin could say anything, the old man laughed.

“Hahahaha! You’re still tactless. I understand how you feel.”

The old man, who scored 40 points, was the most relaxed.

Hwang Jiho’s 40 points in all subjects have already become his identity.

Eungwang High seniors must’ve taken notice of it and knew that he was doing it on purpose.

Teachers in the classes that Hwang Jiho takes are just giving him the points as he took the test.

‘Grades don’t matter much to Hwang Jiho.’

It wasn’t well-known that Hwang Jiho was a mythical tiger, but the rumor of him being part of the Hwangmyeong Group was well-spread.

Now that he’s openly showing his face to the media, no matter what crazy thing he does, he won’t be bothered.

Meanwhile, Kim Yuri decided to divide the class based on the test results.

“Let’s study in two basic groups. If you have any suggestions, we can change it! I’ll be the leader of Group 1 and Euishin will be the leader of Group 2.”

Although Song Daesok had the second best result, as the head of the Class, Kim Yuri took charge of Group 1.

That’s also considering Song Daesok’s busy work as a guest researcher, his inability to attend study sessions often, his favoritism toward Min Geurin, and his tactless nature.

Looking at the groups, it seems to be catering to Kwon Lena and Maeng Hyodon respectively.

Group 1

Leader – Kim Yuri

Members – Mok Wooram, Min Geurin, Song Daesok, Lee Lena

Group 2

Leader – Jo Euishin

Members – Dokgo Miro, Maeng Hyodon, Saeum of April, Hwang Jiho

Everyone nodded at the group distribution.

The kids with similar elective subjects were grouped together.

‘She considered the performance of the kids and the subjects that they take.’

In the case of Kwon Lena, Mok Wooram, Min Geurin, and Song Daesok, there was a high possibility that one of them would protest if they weren’t grouped with their other half.

It was an excellent choice to have them stick to each other.

On top of that, there were students in that group that could help Maeng Hyodon with his math.

‘Maeng Hyodon said he couldn’t study more than usual because of his training with Tak.’

Since Bang Yoonseob ran away, the intensity of his practice has gotten worse.

He seems to be training quite harshly.

Should I be glad he at least got 22 points?

“…Vice president, there are only three questions I knew and got right.”

Maeng Hyodon quickly confessed.

Stonehead Maeng Hyodon seemed to have guessed half of the points that he got.

For the time being, I should focus on helping Maeng Hyodon.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

While everyone was studying in groups, Saeum of April spoke up.

“Will Luis and Seulbi be okay? I think they’re busy with the three-game match so I don’t think they’re studying…”

“Oh, that… I heard from them and… I think they’ll be fine.”

Kim Yuri must’ve contacted the attention-seekers about the study group.

Wait, what does she mean that they’ll be fine?

Considering the personalities of those two, they would pay no mind to any exam to focus on the games.

Kim Yuri, looking far to the west, spoke.

“…Martial artists dressed in black suddenly attacked the Black Darkness Swordsman.”

“Huh? Martial artist?”

Kim Yuri’s voice shook at the cringy words she was forced to say.

Min Geurin took notice of the martial arts part.

Perhaps it was an expression used by the attention seekers.

But they were attacked?

Kim Yuri said with a relieved look.

“And the attackers caught the swordsman and made him study for the final exam… I guess Luis and Seulbi ended up studying with him.”

That martial artist must be a great educator.
