Gu Ming returned to school a little after nine in the evening.
News of him becoming the national competition's Grand Champion Scholar was already flying all over the internet.
Everyone knew that Lanqi City had produced a national Champion Scholar.
The sound of firecrackers crackled and popped in Gu Ming's residential community. It was his parents and grandfather celebrating for him.
But Gu Ming hadn't gone home yet; he was still at school.
He had a brief call with his parents before hanging up to continue immersing himself in reviewing the competition's exam questions.
After winning the title of Grand Champion Scholar, his next goal was the international competition.
It was important to remember that the examination cycle for these types of competitions was very long.
The national competition had been week after week of exams with almost no rest in between.
