The progress bar suddenly shot up—this increase was several tis more than all the previous accumulated progress combined.
"Lin Li, what's wrong?" Lin Li's expression change was too obvious for Chen Yuying not to notice.
"Earth is great! So this planet is called Earth! This knowledge is too important for ! Teacher Chen, please continue—I'm listening carefully." Lin Li slapped his thigh and looked at Chen Yuying expectantly. "Next you can tell how many of the seven continents and four oceans there are, and what they're called."
Chen Yuying: "..."
It was hard to imagine that a human being could say sothing like "how many of the seven continents and four oceans there are." It was truly difficult to relate to.
If it was Lin Li though, that was normal.
Chen Yuying was sowhat puzzled about how she hadn't noticed any of these qualities in Lin Li during the previous sester.
With a sowhat amused sigh, continuing the role-play, Chen Yuying opened her mouth to answer Lin Li's 'confusion': "Earth has a total of seven continents and four oceans, which are Asia..."
...
[Mission Five completed.]
When Lin Li saw this ssage, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
It had only taken a dozen minutes.
"Class monitor, that's enough." Lin Li raised his hand to pause Chen Yuying's narration, then praised: "Class monitor, if you beco a kindergarten teacher in the future, you'll definitely have students all over the world."
Chen Yuying blinked. She always felt that "students all over the world" applied to kindergarten teachers was sowhat right, yet sowhat wrong.
"Don't need to continue?" Chen Yuying had actually found her rhythm.
Role-playing was still awkward, but Chen Yuying discovered that as long as she told herself she was now coaxing an idiot to play, everything beca interesting.
Especially since this idiot would give positive feedback—it was even more fun.
Chen Yuying was already enjoying herself.
You know, teasing idiots would normally cause guilt.
But teasing Lin Li wouldn't.
He'd have to thank her too.
"No need, that's enough. These knowledge points are sufficient as a solid foundation for the mory palace. I can continue building the remaining parts by myself." Lin Li nodded and continued making things up.
"Alright..." Chen Yuying nodded with so lingering interest, then looked at Lin Li with hesitation: "Lin Li, you're not lying to , are you? Are you really using this magical mory palace thod? Can this really improve your mory?"
"Class monitor, how could I possibly lie to you? I can swear a poisonous oath—my mory now has improved by double compared to before." Lin Li, whose constitution had been enhanced by the system, said this very confidently.
"Really?" Chen Yuying still didn't quite believe it. She had indeed heard that there were many novel and effective mory thods in the world, but the core reason these thods weren't popularized was that they either had high barriers to entry or were difficult to master—in short, they lacked universal applicability.
Theoretically speaking, mory palaces had extrely high requirents for spatial imagination ability.
Could Lin Li really do it?
"Really, class monitor. If you don't believe , test on the knowledge you just taught and see if I rembered it." Lin Li confidently patted his chest.
"Alright, what is the planet we live on called?"
"Earth."
"What species are we?"
"Humans, broadly speaking, mammals."
"What do we breathe in when we inhale, and what do we exhale?"
"Oxygen, carbon dioxide."
...
Lin Li successfully answered all of Chen Yuying's questions imdiately.
"You really did rember everything." Chen Yuying nodded.
"Right?" Lin Li was sowhat proud.
"This mory thod is quite impres... wait!" Chen Yuying, who was about to continue nodding, first paused, then suddenly realized.
"What's wrong? All my answers were correct." Lin Li was sowhat puzzled.
"You already rembered this basic knowledge! You're not really stupid... really an otherworld traveler!" She'd gotten too into character and really treated Lin Li like an idiot. Only now did Chen Yuying realize.
Lin Li definitely wasn't an idiot... probably wasn't.
The 'knowledge' she'd just taught could be answered by any random wild Bai Bufan on the street.
It would be strange if Lin Li couldn't answer these questions. How could this prove any mory improvent!
She'd almost been led astray.
"What you're saying does make so sense." Upon hearing this, Lin Li had a sudden realization. After thinking, he pointed at the geography textbook and said: "But my mory really has improved. How about we morize a completely unfamiliar textbook passage together later and see who morizes more in one minute?"
"Okay."
"Class monitor, taste the flavor of failure!" Lin Li was very confident.
He hadn't cheated, so it didn't count as cheating.
...
He failed.
Couldn't out-morize Chen Yuying.
Lin Li belatedly realized that even if a score of 100 improved by 100%, it still couldn't beat a score of 300. Two Lin Lis could beat Mike Tyson with at most two punches instead of one.
What could rival Zhuge Liang wasn't three cobblers, but three deputy generals—these had to be military vice-commanders.
In so gas, even cheating couldn't beat skilled players.
No wonder the class monitor was so perverted behind the scenes at such a young age yet still ranked at the top of the grade. What was perverted wasn't just her mind, but her brain—the forr referring to thinking, the latter to the actual organ.
"Class monitor, you're making feel quite embarrassed..." Lin Li slumped dejectedly on the desk with vacant eyes.
"I believe you, I believe you. This mory thod of yours should indeed be quite impressive." Chen Yuying was amused by Lin Li's appearance.
"Class monitor, if you want to praise yourself, you can do it directly. No need to indirectly praise yourself through ." Lin Li's gaze refocused on Chen Yuying, but quite resentfully, then he also laughed.
Their mutual laughing gaze was seen by others.
Wang Yuezhi was nearly grinding his teeth to powder, Ding Sihan showed an empathetic lon-eating auntie smile, and Wang Ze... Wang Ze was still staring at Wang Yuezhi.
If this wasn't love, what could be called love?
"Since your palace is already built, shall we return to the textbook and resolve those problems again?" Chen Yuying asked.
"Good." Lin Li nodded and was about to open the book, but then rembered: "Class monitor, don't you still have perverted questions you want to ask ? Why don't you ask first?"
"That works too." Chen Yuying ultimately couldn't achieve Lin Li's frank attitude of talking about perverted things without changing expression. Her voice got a bit quieter, but then she asked:
"Lin Li, what does this 'light humming' you guys keep saying an?
I've seen you all saying this word constantly lately, but when I ask people around , no one knows what it ans."
Lin Li blinked.
Because the perverted tone had been set and he was prepared, Lin Li wasn't embarrassed or silent because of this question.
He even thought it was quite reasonable for the class monitor to ask this.
But how to use elegant language to describe this word created by one of the four great silver demons of Kangba?
Lin Li always had a way.
He was a genius.
"Class monitor, do you know what Green Ant, Heaven's Blessing, Jade Liquid, Poetry Hook, and Yellow Brew refer to?"
"Alcohol?"
"Correct. These are all elegant nas, just like how White Jade Plate, Chang'e, and Osmanthus Tree are elegant nas for the moon. Light humming is also an elegant na."
"So what is light humming an elegant na for?" Chen Yuying beca even more curious.
"For us boys, it's an elegant na for David Tao." Lin Li gave his answer.
"David Tao? Huh? Isn't David Tao a singer? Is this a fan nickna? And why does this differentiate between male and female?" Chen Yuying was even more confused, completely unable to understand.
"No, I an David Tao in the literal sense." Lin Li shook his head.
Chen Yuying looked at Lin Li, her eyes hoping he could explain further.
"Class monitor, if you break apart the character 'Zhe' and read David Tao's na literally, you'll understand." Lin Li explained gently.
Tao Ji...
Chen Yuying: "?"
