In fact, besides rapping, Zhao Liangchen reveals his shortcomings when singing normal songs; his musical talent is somewhat lacking. Otherwise, he might not have chosen rap. Zhao Liangchen has a musical dream, and rap happens to cover some of his flaws.

"552!"

"Huh?"

"552, I just got lucky and snagged it."

"Dude, you're kidding, right?"

"Luck's off the charts, can't help it."

"Awesome!"

Zhao Liangchen said, "Luck is also a kind of strength, you're too good, man!"

Zhao Liangchen now sees Xu Lin through rose-colored glasses.

The first class ended quickly, and Rong Xiyi came down with her book, sitting to Xu Lin's left.

And Zhao Liangchen sat on his right.

"What are you up to?"

Xu Lin glanced at the other.

Rong Xiyi: "It's more comfortable sitting at the back."

"Aren't birds and fish on different paths?"

"Do you think sitting together makes us on the same path?"

Rong Xiyi rolled her eyes at him, opened her phone, launched a game, bought some new skins, and also invested some money to randomly draw a hundred items.

However, Rong Xiyi didn't play games during class either; she respects her teachers quite a bit. She listened attentively next to Xu Lin, as did Zhao Liangchen on the right.

Being surrounded by such a serious study atmosphere, Xu Lin had no choice but to get serious too.

The environment really influences a person.

So, Xu Lin opened his English textbook and earnestly used the 'Extraordinary Memory' to memorize the words from the first unit.

Xu Lin, with his half-baked English skills, couldn't even understand some of the titles, let alone entire pages of text in his college English.

He glanced at it and felt his head explode.

At this moment, Xu Lin noticed a book of vocabulary for the English proficiency tests placed beside Rong Xiyi.

He softly asked, "Lend me your vocabulary book."

Rong Xiyi said nothing and handed him the book.

The vocabulary book for the English proficiency tests was about as thick as a vertical one-yuan coin.

In high school, Xu Lin barely recognized any English words, and many multiple-choice questions were answered by feel; his English compositions from junior high to senior high followed the same template, hardly changed. Just like the song lyric goes: 'You're still the same young lad without a slightest change...'

But at this moment.

"Let me concentrate for a bit!"

Xu Lin focused hard, entering the most serious mental state ever, his eyes fixed on the vocabulary book. He started flipping from the official first page like wind through a book, repeatedly flipping through it twenty times.

Xu Lin memorized all the words from the book for the English proficiency tests, including the punctuation marks!

"Dude, what are you doing?"

On the right, Zhao Liangchen couldn't help but ask.

Rong Xiyi added, "What are you flipping through?"

Xu Lin replied, "It's hot, isn't this just a breath of air?"

"Tch!"

Rong Xiyi whispered, "Who fans themselves this way?"

Xu Lin: "Small-minded!"

Rong Xiyi: "Ha!"

At this moment, a system notification appeared in Xu Lin's sight.

[Your journey as a top student +.]

A new task was triggered, Xu Lin silently clicked to open it.

[Triggerable Task: English? Just need some effort!]

[Note: Master the language of the English subject to unlock a fixed talent reward and a random reward.]

"Didn't expect memorizing words could trigger a task!"

He was simply influenced by the positive surrounding study environment to understand the text and attempted to memorize words but then a task emerged.

"Like the novel tasks, there are two rewards, one fixed and one random."

Xu Lin contemplated, "However, this task seems more challenging?"

Mastering English, what does it mean to master English?

Xu Lin has triggered quite a few tasks so far and knows they require his exploration without clear hints.

So, for this new task to master English, he's not quite sure what mastery means.

Speak the language fluently?

It should be more than simple fluency, also requires adept translation, right?

His current level of English remains at the mute stage; he can't comprehend anything. Though he's memorized the words for English proficiency tests, everyone knows that words are just the basics of English; memorizing words won't mean a perfect score, there are other aspects to learn.

"Fine, I'll explore slowly!"

Xu Lin put the vocabulary book aside, his gaze now on the first text of college English.

He understood it, even though he couldn't translate it perfectly, he grasped the basic meaning with one sweep.

"Big improvement!"

Xu Lin was in good spirits.

English class quickly ended, next up was Microeconomics.

Once again, Xu Lin sat with Rong Xiyi, but Zhao Liangchen didn't sit nearby.

After the English class, they headed to another classroom; there was a twenty-minute break in between. Xu Lin, feeling inspired, flipped through the Microeconomics book twenty times as well. Though it's thicker, larger, heavier, with more content than the vocabulary book, after twenty flips, Xu Lin memorized the content too.

"Your book flipping is quite odd!"

Next to him, Rong Xiyi couldn't help but comment, you mentioned fanning for air earlier, surely you're not claiming the same now?

There's air conditioning in this classroom!

Xu Lin: "Haha, I'm memorizing!"

"You call this memorizing?"

"I have a good memory!"

Rong Xiyi didn't question whether it was true, instead commented, "Just keep boasting!"

Xu Lin didn't argue with her.

Soon, class began, and the teacher was a professor appearing to be about fifty.

He didn't ask them to introduce themselves but introduced himself, saying his name was Jiang Min, and it was his twenty-fifth year of teaching; they were his twenty-fifth batch of students.

After his self-introduction, Jiang Min asked, "Has anyone prepared in advance?"

"Yes!"

Immediately, ten people spoke up, including males and females.

Xu Lin noticed with surprise that Zhao Liangchen was among them.

An old saying goes, don't judge by appearances; Zhao Liangchen truly surprised Xu Lin because all the rappers and blondes he encountered in high school were slackers, without exception.

Next, Jiang Min picked three people who spoke up to answer questions, two females and one male.

However, Jiang Min didn't ask about the first chapter but asked about the book as a whole, picking a random chapter to inquire about its main content, and those questioned could answer.

This shocked Xu Lin a bit; it was surprising as in high school, teachers would inquire about the first chapter during the first class, and even those unprepared could quickly glance through it. But Jiang Min had a different approach; if you hadn't prepared, you wouldn't even know which chapter he'd ask about.

The Microeconomics book contains fifteen chapters.

"It seems everyone has prepared well, impressive!"

Jiang Min smiled, "For those who didn't speak up earlier, I wonder if you've prepared? I'll randomly choose one!"

With these words, those who hadn't prepared felt a bit intimidated. If chosen to answer but failed, it would be embarrassing. Like Liu Longsheng, Xie Zhengrong, several other boys, and a few girls immediately lowered their heads and pretended to be reading seriously.

With a smile, Jiang Min scanned the classroom.

He spotted Xu Lin immediately.

Not because Xu Lin was handsome, but because his demeanor was notably vibrant, remarkably so.

"What's your name, student?"

"Xu Lin, the Lin in handsome and assured!"

"You're the most vibrant in class, please stand and answer a question!"

Xu Lin stood up.

Jiang Min asked, "What do Chapters Four and Five discuss?"

Xu Lin had scanned through the book twenty times, remembered even the punctuation.

Thus, he spoke eloquently, "Chapter Four discusses short-term production... Chapter Five discusses long-term production..."

Jiang Min nodded with satisfaction, "Please sit down, well answered!"

Once Xu Lin sat, Jiang Min continued, "It seems many in our class have seriously prepared, great! Now let's start the formal lesson. I don't prefer using slides; just listen to my lecture."

Subsequently, Jiang Min moved around the classroom as he taught, without consulting his book.

"You actually prepared?"

Rong Xiyi softly asked Xu Lin.

Xu Lin replied uprightly, "Do you think I'm like you, playing games all day? Is university for enjoyment? It's a place for study!"

Rong Xiyi: "..."
