Qin Tian glanced again at Chen Zhuang and Zhuang Zhe down the corridor, with Shen Siqi and Lu Lei behind them.
As expected, the expressions of these few people were slightly more relaxed compared to the other students in the class.
After a closer look, Qin Tian had a general idea.
With him as the center, the closer the distance, the stronger the halo enhancement effect should be.
The specific range of the halo's influence was not large, probably only about two to three meters.
Xia Nuannuan was the closest to him, and was clearly benefiting the most.
This special skill was a reward after completing the Gaokao Top Scholar task.
Since he hadn't studied much in the months after the Gaokao, he had no way of knowing the skill's effects.
At this moment, it seemed quite good.
At least for Xia Nuannuan, who needed his tutoring before the Gaokao, now all she had to do was sit next to him, and she should be able to keep up with the teaching pace.
What if she sat on his lap? Wouldn't the effect be even stronger?
Qin Tian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly shook his head vigorously.
Why was his self-control getting worse? His thoughts would wander off at the slightest provocation.
"Gege?"
A voice filled with a bit of shyness and a bit of confusion sounded from beside him.
Qin Tian's heart warmed, and he pretended to be calm as he turned his head to look at her.
"Are you alright? Are you feeling unwell?"
Xia Nuannuan's pretty face was slightly flushed as she asked with concern.
She was still a little unaccustomed to being addressed as "Gege" so directly.
"I'm fine!"
"Oh, I saw you shaking your head!"
"It's nothing, you can continue listening to the lecture!"
"Mhm!"
Xia Nuannuan nodded obediently, then continued to listen to the lecture attentively.
Qin Tian, on the other hand, stabilized his mind and then, for the first time in a while, opened the system's treasure pavilion page.
He currently had 3888 system points, so the highest value of items that could be redeemed in the treasure pavilion was around this amount.
【University English Experience Pack: 599 points】
【University Calculus Experience Pack: 599 points】
【University Chinese Language Experience Pack: 599 points】
...
【Western Economics Experience Pack: 599 points】
【Accounting Experience Pack: 599 points】
...
Qin Tian's attention fell on this long list of subject experience packs, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.
After his rebirth, it was for the approaching Gaokao that he had directly redeemed high school knowledge experience packs for several subjects.
But now he had plenty of time, there were no mock exams in university, and he even had a special skill like the Super Scholar Halo. Was it really necessary to spend points to redeem experience packs?
Moreover, these university subject experience packs were quite expensive!
One must know that the previous high school subject experience packs were only ninety-nine points each.
If all his current points were spent on this, it would feel like a real waste.
It would also be quite boring to clear all these university subjects by cheating.
Why not try to study hard again, like in his previous life?
As soon as this thought appeared, a system task prompt sounded in his mind.
【System Task Triggered: The host's spirit is commendable. Please, host, pass this semester's final exams perfectly without redeeming any items from the treasure pavilion. Additionally, enrich yourself as much as possible and read more books. After the end of this semester, the system will score your performance. The higher the score, the more generous the reward!】
"You really know how to join in the fun. Well, it's too late to regret it now."
Qin Tian couldn't help but complain in his heart.
However, he did not regret having this thought. Instead, his eyes brightened, and he was eager to try.
Having been reborn, if everything relied on system black technology, it would naturally be more relaxed and smooth, but it would also lose a lot of the joy of striving.
Having made up his mind, Qin Tian reached out and took a pen from Xia Nuannuan, and began to flip through the English textbook himself.
That's right, he hadn't prepared any learning tools at all before, and he hadn't even brought a pen.
Xia Nuannuan glanced at him in surprise. Seeing him diligently poring over the book with full concentration, she smiled sweetly and then listened to the lecture even more attentively.
With Qin Tian's English level, and having studied this book in his previous life, he no longer needed to listen to the teacher lecture. He could just treat it as re-learning it himself.
With his intelligence enhanced by the system, coupled with the effect of the Scholar Halo, Qin Tian was surprised to find that even without redeeming experience packs, self-studying felt like he was cheating.
When the class bell rang, he had already gone through half of his English textbook. The various marks and annotations on it proved that he had completely mastered this half of the book.
Xu Wenliang was undoubtedly a good teacher who was liked by students. He did not lecture for a full hundred minutes consecutively, but instead announced a ten-minute break.
The classroom immediately became noisy.
Some people got up to go to the restroom, while others sighed and discussed.
"What? Are you finding it a bit difficult to keep up?"
Xu Wenliang walked down from the podium and asked a few students in the front row with a smile.
"Yes, Teacher Xu, could you please speak a little Chinese? Sometimes I don't understand what you mean!"
"It's tiring to listen, and if you're not careful, you don't know where the lecture is."
"Teacher, your pace is too fast, can you slow down a bit?"
"We haven't learned some of these words yet, can you explain them a little?"
"..."
Several students voiced their thoughts one after another.
"University courses are few, and the workload is heavy. The teacher's lectures are like this. It's not just me; you all have to get used to it slowly."
Xu Wenliang smiled, then nodded and promised, "I'll speak a little slower next time. You all take a break, and then pay more attention during class."
The students in the front row, with helpless expressions, began to sigh.
"This student, you don't seem to have any problems?"
Xu Wenliang's gaze fell on Zhou Yiming in the middle, and he asked with a smile.
Zhou Yiming was stunned for a moment, and replied with a serious expression, "Yes, teacher, I feel it's okay. Your lectures are very good."
"That's good! See, there are still those who can keep up."
Xu Wenliang said to the other students.
The few students, on the surface, showed no unusual expression, but in their hearts, they sneered.
...
...
"Nuannuan, how was your class this period?"
Qin Tian stretched his arms wide in a big yawn and asked Xia Nuannuan beside him.
Xia Nuannuan nodded with a sweet smile and replied, "I feel pretty good. It's a bit strange why everyone seems so tired. I can understand everything!"
She knew her foundation was weak, and her smooth admission to Jiang Da was largely due to Qin Tian.
Therefore, before coming to university, she had already made up her mind to listen more attentively in university classes, at least not to fall behind.
However, what felt strange to her today was that even though the teacher's pace was fast and the teaching was entirely in English, she could easily understand it.
It was as if... her brain had suddenly become much more enlightened.
Didn't they say that falling in love makes you stupid? How come I feel like I've become smarter?
"That might be because you were already smart, and you just didn't realize it before, like a pearl hidden in the dust."
Qin Tian said with a chuckle.
"You just say nice things."
Xia Nuannuan looked at him with a blossoming smile.
