Evil Emperor Zun

Chapter 893 Thinking too much

After that, Wen Zhichen targeted Tang Mu and chased him with difficulty.

However, after each exam, the ranking on the list is unshakeable.

No.1, Tang Mu.

No.2, Wen Zhichen.

……

No.1, Tang Mu.

No.2, Wen Zhichen.

……

No.1, Tang Mu.

No.2, Wen Zhichen.

……

Every time, I am No.2 every time.

At first, the exam questions were relatively simple, at most it was the difference between your full score and my 99 points.But as their grades grew, their grades began to fall farther and farther away from Tang Mu.

Although he was still No.2 on the list, the stark difference in scores seemed to be just a foil to his brilliance.

His mother, who used to be kind and kind, became more and more impatient with him.Every time the results are issued, they will complain non-stop: "You really don't live up to it, look at other people's Tang Mu."

During his growing up, Tang Mu was that standard "other people's child".

His existence is just proving how failed he is.

At the gate of the college, he could often see his mother and Aunt Tang chatting side by side.But as soon as she saw herself, her mother's smile would unknowingly become awkward. In front of Aunt Tang, she seemed unable to even lift her head.

Originally, for a mother, children should be her pride.But she herself became a disgrace to her.

Year after year, Wen Zhichen grew up under Tang Mu's shadow.

That year, they were already third-year students in the Elementary Department.In the graduating class, they were recommended by their tutors to participate in a math competition.

This competition is very important. If you can get the ranking, you can get a lot of extra points when you improve the assessment of other departments in the future.Moreover, since the candidates who participated were from more than one college, they represented the honor of Tiansheng.

The instructor attaches great importance to this, and specially provides them with additional training courses, and recommends a lot of tutorial books.Although Wen Zhichen had seen Tang Mu throw those books directly into the trash can after walking out of the classroom.

Arithmetic is the subject that Wen Zhichen is best at.However, this also does not mean that he has talent.He was able to achieve the current results, almost all of which were piled up from tutorial books.If there is a slight change in the type of questions he has done, he can draw inferences about other cases from one instance.But if it is an extended question that has never been seen before, it will be more difficult for him.

If we say that the usual exams focus on the basics, then these competitions have the most biased questions and strange questions.Wen Zhichen wasn't completely sure either, in order not to lose to Tang Mu, he studied hard during that time.Often until midnight, the oil lamp was still burning in his room.

After a lot of difficulty, he managed to swallow all those competition guidance books.You can walk to the examination room with Tang Mu calmly.

That day, Wen Zhichen woke up early, drank a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge his mother had prepared for him, and then set off for the competition venue.

After the test papers were issued, his self-confidence has quietly collapsed.

This competition... is more difficult than he imagined!

Maybe it's because it's related to the assessment points of the higher education department, and the real talents need to be screened out. Except for a few basic questions, most of the whole test papers are IQ questions that start from real life and carry out thinking transformation.And this is precisely what Wen Zhichen lacks the most.

The elementary school has been in for three years, and this is the most difficult exam paper he has ever done!

Relying on a solid foundation, Wen Zhichen struggled to use the knowledge points he was familiar with.The first page of the test paper was completed only after typing both sides of the draft paper.

Immediately afterwards, he was completely stumped by the next question.

Habitually raised his head to look at Tang Mu, if that genius is also rare, maybe Wen Zhichen will be balanced.Then he can adjust his mentality and concentrate on solving the problem.

However, the first thing that caught his eyes was Tang Mu sleeping on the table.

Like every exam in the past, he finished the exam paper in the shortest time, and spent the rest of the time sleeping.

Even this rare competition that makes him unlovable in life is still so easy for him.

Even after lighting a lamp and cooking oil by himself, and studying day and night for more than half a month, but he just threw away all the tutorial books.

Perhaps it was at that moment that he realized that no matter how much he gave, he could not compare with a true genius.

At that moment, Wen Zhichen's mentality completely collapsed.

For the rest of the competition, he couldn't concentrate on solving the problem at all.I was just writing and drawing on the test paper in vain, and I didn't even remember what I wrote.

When they came out of the examination room, the mother immediately understood everything when she saw his listless face.

In her eyes, there is a kind of disappointment that hates iron but can't make steel.

Later, the results of the competition came out.Tang Mu is still the No.1 who stands aloof, but this time he is no longer the No.2 who follows him closely.

In that game, he played so poorly that he didn't even make the list.

However, although he lost the competition, with his usual grades, it is not difficult to get a high score into the higher department.The instructor was not particularly worried about him.

However, when filling out the assessment registration form, Wen Zhichen made an unexpected choice.

He gave up going directly to the advanced department, but chose to apply for Wuya Vocational College.

It is not uncommon for students who previously studied in Tiansheng Elementary Division to transfer to Wuya halfway, but those who failed the direct entrance examination and had to choose their second choice. Among those people, such a good student as Wen Zhichen was definitely not included.

The tutor was very puzzled by his behavior of "giving up his own future". For this reason, he specially asked his parents to come to the principal to talk.

After all, in terms of teaching level in all aspects, as well as career development after graduation, Tiansheng is definitely far better than Wuya.What's more, where Wuya is, it's a gathering place for gangsters. If a good student enters that kind of college and hangs around with those gangsters all day long, his life will be ruined immediately!
However, Wen Zhichen had already made up his mind.The opposition of his parents, teachers, and all relatives and friends failed to shake him.

He was real, and he didn't want to live in Tang Mu's shadow anymore.

With such a person who can never be surpassed standing in front of him, maybe the parents will think it is a role model, but for him, it is just a burden.

To say that the difference between vocational colleges and ordinary colleges is that vocational colleges are more pragmatic and will carry out more professional skills training.In ordinary colleges, there are too many subjects to be tested, and a lot of knowledge will be invalid after graduation, which will only distract the students' energy.

So he chose to enter Wuya and study arithmetic with all his heart. He will become a top astronomical calculator in the future, and come back to defeat Tang Mu!
Wuya, it's really a mess over there.It is said that nine out of ten of the student bosses in the world came from Wuya.But now because Wu Ya Wu Jiyuan is no match for Tian Sheng Rong Xiao, so even Wu Ya's only point of victory over Tian Sheng has been completely suppressed.

On the first day of transferring to Wuya, Wen Zhichen felt that the style of study here was really bad.

During the class, the students can do anything underneath.Smoking, sleeping, playing cards, making the whole classroom dirty.And the instructor basically ignored them, talking about his book mechanically, and leaving with the textbook when the time came, which was completely different from the atmosphere of Tiansheng before.

There was so much noise in class that he couldn't concentrate on listening to the class at all.During the lunch break, he went to the office with the tutoring book, but the tutor just smoked a cigarette, glanced at him lazily, and advised him: "Why are you working so hard? Can you pass the exam?"

While talking, he slowly exhaled a smoke ring and sprayed it on his face.

Although he didn't say it clearly, the meaning on his face is clear: "Why pretend to be a good student? If you are really a good student, can you still come to Wuya?"

In an environment where the whole is "mixed", if you don't mix, you will become a different kind.Therefore, there are many students who were originally down-to-earth, but after entering Wuya for only one month, they have completely "collaborated".

This is a place where everyone just wants to dawdle, and this is a place where even the instructors don't want to teach well.

Such a place is simply hell for a well-behaved student like Wen Zhichen.

Gradually, he also began to change some principles.

No longer hating cheating as he did at the beginning, he began to know how to use his excellent grades to make deals with the overlords in the academy.

However, he didn't have the patience to curry favor one by one.What he did was to directly establish a good relationship with the boss Wu Jiyuan, help him pass the exam, and at the same time use his power to exchange for a stable life for himself.

In such an environment, he spent three years.

It is not easy to keep his heart in the quagmire, and what is even more rare is that he can learn by himself here.

Now, he is confident enough that he has become a powerful astrologer not weaker than Tang Mu!

Under his control, the pattern composed of functions buzzed and spun in mid-air, spread out like a spider web, and fell towards Tang Mu.

Tang Mu, who was below, listened to Wen Zhichen's intermittent nagging, with a calm expression all the time.It wasn't until the other party's words came to an end that he sighed softly, overturned the seal in his hand, and filled it into the defensive pattern set up by him.The light flowed, and a submerged power of law suddenly flourished at this time.

"Wen Zhichen, you just think too much!"

Wen Zhichen was startled suddenly.What he expected was to show Tang Mu his hard work over the years, to make him admire and regret.But the other party's casual sentence made him feel his faith collapse again.

What does it mean?Has he never paid attention to my efforts?

When you try your best, what you get in return is just a dismissive look from the other party. The gap is probably the same.

Tang Mu shook his head, a burst of spiritual power shot out from his fingertips, the array suddenly doubled in size, and thunderous transparent ripples radiated from it, sweeping towards Wen Zhichen on the opposite side.Under such a powerful pressure, the free elements in the air gathered together and merged into the golden pattern, adding bricks and tiles to his counterattack.

"Do you have to live as a copy of me? Do you have to completely copy my path in every move?"

"Do you have to listen to what your mother says?"

"What I said, can it determine your life?"

"Since you don't want to follow the path arranged by your family, just be bold and refuse!"

"You have your own dream, so work hard to realize it!"

"Don't you want to become a fortune teller? Then show it to me!"

Every time he uttered a word, the energy fluctuations in the array would increase sharply again, causing Wen Zhichen to retreat step by step.

In this series of "soul questioning", the positions of the two seem to be completely reversed.

Until the last sentence fell, Tang Mu clasped his hands suddenly, and the explosive array broke through Wen Zhichen's barrier in one fell swoop, and the remaining aftermath, like the waves at high tide, sent Wen Zhichen flying with a "boom". After flying upside down for a few feet, it slammed heavily outside the arena.

Although his whole body was lying on the ground stiffly, Wen Zhichen at this moment surprisingly didn't feel jealous.

The knot that had been entangled with him for a long time seemed to have finally been completely untied under Tang Mu's questioning.

Yes, why do I have to compare myself with him, why do I have to live as a copy of him?
Is the path that parents arrange for themselves necessarily the correct path?Why do I always just choose to be submissive, and I don't even have the courage to have a good talk with them and tell them what I really think?

If you really want to compare, there are so many excellent people in all walks of life in this world, should I compare them one by one, and live in futile inferiority forever?

Not to mention, those geniuses who are participating in the assessment now, Mo Gucheng, Yan Yulin, Feng Boliang, these names are so dazzling that people can't open their eyes, even if they lag behind them, how can I feel jealous?

It's all because Tang Mu was the first friend he knew, a neighbor's child, and the object that his mother used to compare with him time and time again.

The emotion of jealousy is always directed at the person closest to me.If you get 55 points in the test, you will not be jealous of the 100 points of a distant genius, but you will be full of displeasure for your friend's 60 points.

That's right, all this time, I've been trapped by my own cocoon.

Tang Mu was right, as a person, he just "thinks too much".

There are many paths to success, as long as you look for the one that suits you best, and go on firmly.

Becoming an astrologer is my dream.From now on, I will work hard for it wholeheartedly.

"Tang Mu..." Wen Zhichen looked at the still dazzling figure standing on the ring from afar, and pulled the corner of his mouth with difficulty, "Since you think so...why, couldn't you tell me earlier? "

If he could have said earlier, he wouldn't have spent so many years getting angry.

In the future, they are no longer rivals, and after taking off that layer of cruel competition, they are just real good friends.

And, best friends too.
