Chapter 355: Chapter 355 Qu Yuan Chronicles

As soon as the male teacher uttered those words, the students—who had been praying inwardly—froze, their faces turning even uglier.

Just as feared, the teacher really did pick Chen Feng!

Everyone knew that Chen Feng hadn’t even been coming to class recently.

Even before that, he didn’t know the name of the classical text he was supposed to memorize, so how could he possibly recite it?

This sent waves of despair through the students; it looked like they couldn’t avoid running those fifty laps today.

Because if Chen Feng couldn’t recite it, they’d all have to be punished with him, which was incredibly frustrating.

Some students even started blaming Chen Feng in their hearts.

You just had not to show up for class earlier or later, but you had to come today, and just happened to walk into the lion’s mouth.

It was bad enough that you walked into the lion’s mouth, but worse still was dragging everyone else into it with you—truly a catastrophe!

The more the students thought about it, the angrier they became, and their looks toward Chen Feng became extremely hostile.

Chen Feng, sensing everyone’s resentful gaze, just shook his head and chuckled.

He finally understood why the male teacher didn’t pick him at first, but did so now.

It was clear that he wanted to paint Chen Feng as the antagonist and isolate him.

In plain terms, he was out to get Chen Feng!

It seemed that the previous incident hadn’t taught him much of a lesson at all. If that’s the case, then...

The corners of Chen Feng’s mouth curled slightly, and he stood up from his seat, looking at the male teacher and said calmly, "Teacher, if I can’t recite it, does the whole class have to be punished?"

"That’s right, if you can’t recite it, the whole class will have to run fifty laps!" the male teacher nodded and said sternly, but a smug look flashed in his eyes.

"Fifty laps? Don’t you think that’s a bit too few?" Chen Feng said with a faint smile.

As soon as these words came out, the whole class almost popped their eyes out.

Thinking fifty laps was too few for punishment?

Had this guy gone mad? There was no need to court death like this, was there?

Didn’t he realize that his every word and action could affect everyone?

The whole class glared at Chen Feng resentfully, and if looks could kill, Chen Feng would probably have died hundreds of times over by now.

"Oh? You think this punishment is too light? Well, then let’s make it harsher, one hundred laps!" the male teacher said with a cold laugh.

He couldn’t have been happier with this because the harsher the punishment, the more the students would hate Chen Feng.

Sure enough, as soon as the male teacher spoke, the students’ gazes toward Chen Feng became positively murderous!

Lin Mengyao and Tang Yuxin were also looking at Chen Feng with baffled faces. Although they didn’t resent him like the other students, they were very puzzled by his behavior.

"Chen Feng, what on earth are you trying to do?" Lin Mengyao frowned and said in confusion.

"Yeah, Chen Feng, doing this will just make everyone hate you!" Tang Yuxin said, visibly worried.

Chen Feng gave both girls a reassuring smile and a calming look before he raised his head to look at the male teacher and said indifferently, "One hundred laps, that just about suffices. But teacher, I have one more question."

"What’s with all the questions? Ask already!" the male teacher said impatiently.

"If there’s a punishment for not being able to recite it, then shouldn’t there be a reward for reciting it? Only with clearly defined rewards and punishments can you prove yourself to be a good teacher," Chen Feng said calmly.

"Hmm?"

The male teacher was taken aback upon hearing this, as he hadn’t expected Chen Feng to ask such a question.

However, he didn’t believe that Chen Feng could recite it.

After all, the "Qu Yuan Chronicles" was such a lengthy piece of classical Chinese text, and Chen Feng hadn’t even attended class yesterday. How could he possibly recite it after just arriving in the classroom today?

So, the male teacher didn’t take Chen Feng’s words seriously and simply nodded, saying, "You make some sense, but what kind of reward do you want?"

"Nothing much, if I can recite it, then you’ll go and run a hundred laps on the sports field, how about that?"

Chen Feng said with a faint smile.

At these words, the entire class, including the teacher himself, was stunned.

"You... what kind of reward is that?"

The male teacher glared at Chen Feng, perplexed.

"A consistent system of rewards and punishments, right? If we can’t recite it, we have to be punished with running laps, and if we can, then it’s only fair for the teacher to run laps," Chen Feng calmly stated.

Hearing this, the male teacher’s gaze flickered, somewhat at a loss about what Chen Feng was really up to.

Yet one thing he was sure of now, that was, Chen Feng definitely could not recite it!

Once he was certain of this, the male teacher didn’t bother to overthink it. He nodded immediately and said, "Fine, if you can recite it, I will go run a hundred laps on the sports field, and I will also let off the other students who were punished earlier. But if you can’t, your whole class will be punished to run a hundred laps. Do you have any other questions now?"

"No more!"

Chen Feng shook his head.

"Then let’s begin!"

The male teacher urged, unable to wait any longer.

Chen Feng smiled faintly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his mind stirred gently.

Suddenly, a purple light shimmered in Chen Feng’s eyes, and then, Chen Feng activated his Clairvoyant Eye!

Yes, it was the Clairvoyant Eye, and that was Chen Feng’s winning magic treasure.

The Clairvoyant Eye now had significantly enhanced perceptive abilities and could even see from a distance!

So even though the male teacher had collected all the textbooks on the teacher’s desk, it was no match for Chen Feng!

Chen Feng looked straight towards the stack of Chinese textbooks on the desk, saw through them, and quickly located the classical Chinese text, "Qu Yuan Chronicles"!

Chen Feng was quite experienced with classical Chinese.

Techniques like the "Beidou Seven Stars Acupuncture Technique" and some ancient medical texts, as well as the "Five Elements Reincarnation Technique" he practiced, were all recorded in the form of classical Chinese.

One could say Chen Feng often dealt with classical Chinese and was more than familiar with these complex words and phrases.

Thus, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Chen Feng, with the help of his Clairvoyant Eye, started to "recite" from the books with ease.

It was more of a reading rather than reciting!

"Qu Yuan, whose given name was Ping, came from the same lineage as the rulers of Chu. He was an attendant on the left of King Huai of Chu. Widely learned..."

Soon, Chen Feng had recited the entire "Qu Yuan Chronicles."

"Gulp!"

At this moment, the classroom was as silent as death, with only the sound of swallow after swallow audible.

The whole class was completely stunned, staring at Chen Feng with their eyes wide and full of amazement!

They had thought Chen Feng could never recite it, but surprisingly, not only did he recite it, he did so in one breath, so smoothly and naturally.

The familiarity was as though he was reading directly from the book.

It was truly unbelievable!
