(Part 1)

The second exam started quickly.

The second exam was math, which was even more anxiety-inducing than the first.

This was true for both the students from the native world and the players.

For players with comprehension ability and a decent level of education, the Chinese exam wasn't much of a problem, but the math exam was truly nerve-wracking.

The math exam for the third year of high school was difficult even when the questions weren't intentionally made tough; the inherent difficulty was there.

Moreover, the difficulty level of this exam was higher than that of the Chinese exam.

The students from the native world were just as nervous, much more so than during the Chinese exam.

The two-hour Chinese exam had already planted the seeds of tension and fear. Now, with tense nerves and exhausted bodies, they were thrown into the more intense math exam, causing more and more people to become so nervous that they could barely hold their pens.

Amid the rustling sound of students answering questions, the occasional tearing sound heightened everyone's nerves.

The tension in the exam hall built up layer by layer, filling the air with a scorching, taut atmosphere like a fully drawn bowstring suspended beside each person's neck, making them too scared to breathe.

Some people finally couldn't take it anymore, covering their ears and holding their heads.

Some began tearing up their exam papers, only to be quickly stunned by the proctors and dragged out of the exam hall.

Now they all understood why there were so many proctors and two officers in each exam room.

Ning Su finished the exam in 40 minutes.

After completing the exam, he kept observing the students and players around him.

Sitting near the middle and to the right of the room, he noticed a girl diagonally in front of him experiencing the same situation as Wang Zhiqiu.

Many people in the exam hall were nervous, with shaking hands and sweating, but none had the same terrified look as Wang Zhiqiu.

This girl, however, did. Like Wang Zhiqiu, she was initially writing furiously, but then she suddenly stopped.

She stared blankly at the exam paper, her eyes wide with fear.

She patted her head and began looking at the questions below, her face growing paler and her expression increasingly desperate.

She wasn't sweating; she just stared blankly and somewhat dazedly at the exam paper, with tears dripping down.

"Knock, knock!"

The desk was tapped twice.

A teacher stood beside him, staring suspiciously at Ning Su. "What are you doing? Why aren't you focusing on your exam paper? What are you looking at?"

It was obvious that he was being suspected of trying to cheat.

Ning Su had no intention of causing more anxiety for the already tense students, but the teacher had already opened his answer sheet and was surprised, letting out a "huh?"

Hearing the sound, two more teachers came over.

"He actually finished in less than an hour?"

Another math teacher glanced at the paper. "He got everything right! Even the final challenge question is done!"
