"But there's always someone better than you, a sky beyond the sky! I, Zhou Shaojie, can confidently say my math scores are in the top ten in all of Huaiji, but I can't even make it out of the province."
With that, Ah Jie gestured to the side. "If you don't believe me, ask Li Zhi. I remember she also did the Math Olympiad training for a while in her sophomore year."
Hearing this, Shen Yuan looked at Li Zhi curiously. "Really?"
Shen Yuan genuinely knew nothing about this.
Li Zhi nodded. "It was during my sophomore year. I only joined for a bit, but I couldn't even compete at the city level."
"In all of Huaiji, that is," Li Zhi added.
Shen Yuan didn't say anything.
In truth, forget about all of Huaiji.
Even in Jiyang—heck, even right here at Jiyang Middle School—there were students better at math than Li Zhi.
As for Shen Yuan himself, the less said, the better.
He couldn't compete his way out of Jiyang Middle School, let alone out of Class 15.
