Taihua High School Weightlifting Champion! (Seeking Follow-up Reads!!!)

Regardless, the task can be put aside for now; attending class is more important.

Before class, Su Yuan had one more thing to do.

Collect homework.

Although Su Yuan's grades were only average to above average in the class, he was the class representative for Spiritual Text.

In this world where everyone cultivates, the high school curriculum was vastly different from Su Yuan's previous life.

Not to mention the elective courses that weren't part of the college entrance exam, there were six core subjects for the exam: General Knowledge, Cultivation, Physical Education, Martial Arts, Dao Heart, and Spiritual Text.

The first four subjects were worth 150 points each, while the latter two were worth 75 points each, totaling 750 points.

Spiritual Text referred to the script used in the Ancient Cultivation World. Although the immortal path was developed today, a large number of ancient ruins had yet to be excavated.

Some top-tier cultivation techniques and Daoist Arts could only be interpreted using Spiritual Text, making it a mandatory subject for cultivators.

The study of Spiritual Text didn't depend much on talent; it only required rote memorization. Therefore, in this subject alone, Su Yuan ranked among the top in the class and was successfully elected as the class representative.

He first took out his and Chu Lanxi's Spiritual Text homework from his bag, then began collecting homework from the first row, first seat, Chen Nuoyi.

Looking at Su Yuan's outstretched hand for the homework, Chen Nuoyi raised her bright, starry eyes and said calmly:

"I didn't do it. Cover for me."

Su Yuan: "..."

The top student in the class sure was assertive.

However, this wasn't the first or second time Chen Nuoyi hadn't submitted her homework, so Su Yuan didn't say anything. Yet, a "ding-dong" sound appeared in his mind.

[Under the corrupting influence of your demonic sound, the pure and ignorant saintess of the Righteous Path foolishly abandoned an opportunity to improve herself. Because of your indulgence, her respected elders are completely unaware of this, Saintly Corruption +5%!]

[Task Progress: Saintly Corruption 5% (Max 20%)]

Damn System! That's enough!

Did I corrupt Chen Nuoyi with even a single punctuation mark from beginning to end?

She was just too lazy to do it herself!

Su Yuan's mouth twitched fiercely.

But then again, just by not submitting homework, the System judged Chen Nuoyi as corrupted? It seemed this task wasn't as difficult as he imagined.

Given the System's low standards, he wouldn't quibble with it for now.

Su Yuan closed the System pop-up window in front of him and looked at Chen Nuoyi's deskmate, signaling them to hand in their homework.

This bold, dark-skinned "hot girl" named Wu Xingqi unceremoniously snatched one of the two homework assignments from Su Yuan's hand, then took out her own blank Spiritual Text homework, clasped her hands together, and said apologetically:

"Section Chief Su, let me copy yours."

Su Yuan: "...What kind of lewd words are these?"

"I'm very fast at copying. It'll be done by the time you've collected everyone else's homework."

Oh, just copying homework. Never mind then.

Su Yuan gave a professional smile and carried the homework to the next desk.

Then, out of the forty-eight students in the class, Su Yuan made a round and collected only a dozen or so assignments. This thin stack of homework looked quite pathetic in his hands.

"Godfather, my little life is in your hands!"

A student who hadn't submitted homework cupped his hands and bowed to Su Yuan.

In the office, Su Yuan placed the homework on the Spiritual Text teacher's desk.

Although Spiritual Text wasn't one of the three main subjects—Martial Arts, Cultivation, and Physical Education—teachers who taught Spiritual Text generally had good cultivation and seniority. At least, that was the case for the Spiritual Text teacher of Class Two.

Their Spiritual Text teacher not only taught Spiritual Text but was also the teacher for Cultivation, one of the three main subjects, and their homeroom teacher for Class Two.

After putting down the homework, Su Yuan spoke to the middle-aged man with a stern, cold expression and meticulous attire sitting behind the desk:

"Teacher Yue, this is the class's Spiritual Text homework."

Yue Lin glanced at the thin stack of homework books and said in a deep voice:

"Did you collect it all?"

"All collected."

Su Yuan said with a straight face.

The lives of the forty-eight sons and daughters of Class Three, Second Year, were in his hands; he had to protect them!

Yue Lin was silent for a moment, then slowly said:

"Alright, I understand."

Su Yuan felt a slight relief and was about to slip away when Yue Lin also stood up and said:

"The first class today is Cultivation. I have some things to announce, let's go together."

"Oh."

Su Yuan nodded calmly, and the two walked towards the classroom together. As they reached the entrance of Class Two, clear sounds of chatting and playing could be heard.

But the moment Yue Lin stepped into the classroom of Class Two, the room fell silent. Every student sat properly in their seats, as if the earlier commotion had never happened.

Su Yuan quietly slipped back to his seat.

"I could hear your ruckus from the office. Out of all the third-year classes, this one is the most boisterous," Yue Lin said coldly after standing on the podium.

The smell is too strong.

However, this homeroom teacher wasn't one for rambling. After speaking, he immediately got to the point, holding up two fingers.

"Two things. First, to prepare for the college entrance exams, the school is establishing a new Special Class. We'll select the most outstanding students from the eight third-year classes to study in it. A major criterion for selection will be the results of the monthly exam at the end of this month."

"Second, a powerful individual from one of the top ten Immortal Estates will be visiting Taihua High School soon. It's rumored that this expert has thoughts of teaching in the Special Class. All of you should prepare yourselves well and stay sharp. Don't embarrass us!"

After hearing Yue Lin's solemn words, the expressions of all the students in the class, including Su Yuan, turned serious.

The Special Class—it went without saying that entering it would greatly increase one's chances of getting into one of the top ten immortal academies. At the very least, it would make it easier to get into a good university.

Any student with ambition wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.

The Special Class... isn't that just a blatant way to hog Taihua High School's resources? If I get into the Special Class, will the task of occupying student resources be completed?

Su Yuan's heart stirred as he secretly pondered.

Besides, even without this task, his original goal was to get into one of the top ten. If there was a chance, he absolutely had to get into this Special Class.

It's just that...

The selection criteria for the Special Class being the monthly exam results at the end of the month was a bit rushed!

There were only twenty days left until the end of the month.

System, you better be reliable. Show me your limits!

As he was thinking this, the school bell officially rang.

Yue Lin stopped the discussion about the Special Class and said, "We'll be activating the Spirit Gathering Array in this class today. You can cultivate freely. I'll point out your shortcomings during your breathing exercises. If you need to rent a Spiritual Root, hurry up. Don't delay the class."

As he spoke, intricate array patterns appeared on the clean white classroom walls, emitting a faint, lustrous glow. The surrounding spiritual energy concentration quickly became dense.

Su Yuan didn't dare to delay. He opened the school app and rented a basic Spiritual Root for two hours at a price of five hundred yuan per hour.

Less than a minute after placing the order, an unmanned Flying Sword flew in from outside the door and placed a securely packaged box on Su Yuan's desk. Inside was the artificial basic Spiritual Root.
