Chapter 562: Fourth Level Results, Shockingly Astonishing!
The Shark Live Streamer Contest lasted most of the night.Meanwhile, the Empire English Level Four Exam began as scheduled the next morning.
The exam lasts for 2 hours.
Since most of the questions are graded by machines, only the essay requires manual grading, so the results are available on the same day. Thıs content belongs to novelhall.com
Countless university students anxiously awaited the exam results, some repeatedly checking online answers, some consulting with top students, and some outright praying to the exam gods.
After all, passing the Level Four exam is one of the necessary conditions for obtaining a university graduation certificate.
So many people get stuck on this score, studying for four years in vain without getting a diploma.
Passing, though it sounds simple, is both simple and difficult, since some people just can’t seem to get the hang of English, no matter what.
At this moment.
Li Xiaolou and his Medical College classmate, Wang Liang, were waiting anxiously for the results, unusually quiet.
"Xiaolou, what do you estimate your score to be? Can you pass this year?"
"I..."
"This year’s questions were harder than last year’s. You only got over thirty last year; it’s probably tough for you again today, huh?"
"I..."
"Oh, I heard the college set up a special Level Four encouragement award. If someone gets first place in the entire college, they win a fifty-thousand-yuan prize. That prize is bound to be mine! Then I’ll give you one or two hundred to buy some meat to eat, haha."
"I..."
"Hey, could you stop stammering and finish your sentence?"
Wang Liang disdainfully slapped the back of his head.
Li Xiaolou pursed his lips: "You’re the one not letting me finish. I estimate my score to be around 90 because I’m not too sure about the essay, but all the multiple-choice questions are definitely correct."
Wang Liang: "..."
Silence for several seconds.
Another hard slap on the back of Li Xiaolou’s head: "Damn, you’re acting all high and mighty, huh! You dreaming of getting 90 in your crappy English? If you manage to reverse it to a 60, you’d be blessed! You might as well dream that I won the fifty-thousand-yuan prize and share 250 with you!"
Li Xiaolou pursed his lips: "It’s true."
"True, my ass!" Wang Liang declared confidently. "If you actually score 90, I’ll call you dad!"
Li Xiaolou said seriously: "Liang Liang, don’t be like that. Teacher Cao Yu said that word spirits can be scary, and it’s best to keep a low profile. Don’t always swear; it might come true."
"Come true, my ass. Why aren’t you keeping a low profile, saying you got 90? Are you aiming to be a skyrocket? Us poor folk need some self-awareness; you better go find a job quick. Stop waiting here, as it’s not going to be a pass. You might as well go wash dishes at a restaurant to earn some dinner money to cook for your sister!"
"I want to wait for the results and go pick up the prize."
"Damn, this poor kid, truly lost in fantasy..."
At the moment Wang Liang was speechless about his classmate’s delusion.
Suddenly.
Someone nearby gasped in surprise:
"The results are out, they’re out! I passed, hahaha!"
"Ugh, I got 59 again. Why am I always one point short? I should just kill myself with a piece of tofu!"
Wang Liang hurried to check his results: "Hey, I got 88, what a lucky number! Anybody score higher than me? If not, I’m off to the college to claim the scholarship!"
"Wait a minute, Liang Liang." Li Xiaolou pursed his lips, "I got 99, Liang Liang."
"What? You got 39?" Wang Liang sighed, "Poor kid, you’ll have to take it again next year. Condolences."
"No, I got 99."
The air froze for a moment.
Wang Liang’s throat went dry as he raised his hand to slap the back of Li Xiaolou’s neck.
Who knew, Li Xiaolou grabbed his hand: "Liang Liang, I’m going to get the prize. Also, thank you for your concern, brother. I’ll share 250 of the prize with you."
[Note: For clarification, the Empire English Level Four is a 100-point system, different from the 710-point system of our English Level Four.]
