Zhu Juntang's tutoring session today was a review of seventh-grade mathematics. There was an enormous gap to make up between seventh-grade math and advanced mathematics. Yan Qingcheng had prepared herself for the long haul. Zhu Juntang would definitely fail advanced mathematics in the final exam, but they should at least strive to get her a few points.

Zhu Juntang happily accepted Yan Qingcheng's praise and nodded.
