He turned around and looked at Ms. Emerson as he let out a soft snort. His voice was quite loud. “Sigh, Raine sure
disappointed me. She was one to aim for a second-class award, but it must be her mental state. Well, she’s now
only with a third-class award.”
Ms. Emerson did not look at him. A teacher from the Northon Institute glanced at him but did not say anything.
However, another teacher to the side complimented him with envy upon hearing that
“I never thought you were that brilliant, sir. I’m already so happy that my student got the excellence award. Yours
here got the third-class award. It’s incredible!”
It was rare that Mr. Kennedy had someone flatter him, so he glanced at the young male teacher and somewhat

beyond third class. They are aiming straight for first class. Youngsters these days are so impulsive, and they even
betted with me if she did not win first place, she would not participate in the Math Olympiad ever again. Tsk tsk, how
interesting!”
That teacher gave Ms. Emerson an odd look, with a tinge of disbelief on his face. ‘The first-class award? Isn’t that
first place?’ ‘That’s an award that Mr. Hancock’s students would take back every single time!’ ‘This Ms. Emerson
looks pretty young. It’s a bit too early to aim for first place, no?’ That male teacher chatted casually with Mr.
Kennedy for a while, flattering the latter all the way.
After all, the latter was still a teacher at San Joto’s high school. He did not lose out on anything if he flattered one
anyway.
Ms. Emerson and the teacher from Northon Institute could not be bothered to entertain the two. Both of them were
looking seriously at the award ceremony. The third-class award had all been awarded, and what was next was the
three-winner second-class award!
Raine returned to her seat, and as she looked at Nicole, she let out a cold snort.
The host was preparing to announce the award list for the second-class award, and Gary gradually became
nervous. He hoped that his name would appear on the list of the second
He had the ambition to take first place and also thought that he had the ability to do so!
Many from Class B were looking at the screen as the name list of the winners announced by the host would be
displayed to allow the students seated behind to see if they were on the award’s list.
Gary had put into this and knew that he was aiming for first place.
Both of them silently prayed.
Unfortunately for them, the first name the host announced for the second-class award was Gary’s.

The Math Olympiad did not announce the results, but instead, one would know who scored higher based on the
order of them being called. The first person called for the second-class award has the highest score, which also
meant he was in second place in this year’s Math Olympiad. Immediately after, he did not recognize the two names
that were announced, and he thought they must be students from other schools, and they were the third and
fourth place in this competition.
Gary saw his name appearing on the screen, and a tinge of disappointment appeared in his eyes, followed by a
strong sense of curiosity.
He thought that he had lost no points aside from the last question, so he wondered how the first place had
performed since he was only in second place.
‘If I did not make it. Then the first place must be the students of Northon University’s Mr.
