Skip Grades (2)

"What did you say?" Mr. Yang stared at Feng Wu. He didn't like opinionated students, even if they were geniuses.1

"What if I can beat the top student of Class B?" Feng Wu didn't care what other people thought of her.

She smiled the entire time. Her eyes were as bright as stars, and she was as pretty as a picture.

The other tutors thought, "What a shame. She's so wonderful, but she's too arrogant!"

Mr. Yang snorted. "You'll be the top student of Class B if you can beat Shan Jingfei."

Almost everyone in the academy knew who Shan Jingfei was. She was a student of Class B, but she was also the most popular girl in the War Academy. Wu Lingyue was nothing in comparison.

Feng Wu nodded. "I'll fight her, then."

Mr. Yin liked how forthright she was. She was a girl of action, but others might take it for arrogance.

He tried to persuade her otherwise. "Shan Jingfei is the top student of Class B. She's even good enough to go to Class A."

Feng Wu nodded. "Yup."

Mr. Yin said, "Why don't we start from the last student on the billboard?"

Feng Wu said, "That's alright. Shan Jingfei will do."

Mr. Yin shrugged at Mr. Yang. He had tried, but she wouldn't listen.

Mr. Yang was usually a mild-tempered man, but he was frustrated by Feng Wu's statement. "Suit yourself, then! You'll fight Shan Jingfei!"

Feng Wu was talented, but one needed time to train their skills. Her good looks could only get her so far! Mr. Yang smirked and gave the order.

The air felt stuffy as they waited for Shan Jingfei to arrive. No one dared to break the silence.

Mr. Zhu stared at his hands on the table and was filled with emotions.

Mr. Wang smirked. This presumptuous girl would be humiliated!

Mr. Yin was worried for Feng Wu but couldn't do anything.

Mr. Yang seemed displeased.

Mr. Duan was from Class A. He decided that it was none of his business.

Mr. Gongsun shook his head, and Zuo Qingluan had a sarcastic look on her face.

...

Anyone else would be scared out of their wits under the pressure of all the attention, but Feng Wu only stood there with her hands behind her back. She was even smiling, as if nothing in the world could bother her.

Just then, they heard approaching footsteps.

The silence was broken.

Shan Jingfei walked in. When she saw all the tutors and school heads, she couldn't help but feel nervous. Although she was used to being the center of attention, she still greeted all the teachers flusteredly.

The teachers smiled bitterly.

That was how a regular student should react. Feng Wu was too calm.

Mr. Yang asked, "Jingfei, I assume you're currently the top student on the billboard. Is that correct?"

Under Zuo Qingluan's gaze, Shan Jingfei found it hard to breathe. She said in a low voice, "Yes."

Mr. Yang nodded. "You'll fight Feng Wu today."

Feng Wu? Shan Jingfei knew that name.

On her way here, she had heard other students say that once Feng Wu rose to Class B, she herself wouldn't be the most popular girl anymore.

Shan Jingfei had always assumed an otherworldly manner, as if she didn't care about fame. In fact, she cared very much.
