Chapter 40: Goddess Su, All Your Points Are Gone

No!
What’s going on?
How did Zhang Chu become the chief examiner?
Over a thousand people in the martial arts arena felt their heads ache…
Hundreds of teachers from Binzhou University were equally bewildered.
Only Huang Wenzhan, after a brief moment of confusion, grinned widely: “Binzhou University truly produces talent! If this young man were my grandson-in-law, how wonderful that would be!”
Zhang Chu had become the chief examiner of the Martial Arts Research Institute.
With this year’s early admissions ranking, who else but Binzhou University could claim the top spot in the city?
Looking at Su Mingyue, she wished she could die on the spot!
Watching Zhang Chu sit in the chief examiner’s seat, she felt suffocated.
Hearing Zhang Chu’s words, her sense of suffocation increased tenfold!
Just a month ago, Zhang Chu was a half-dead patient with ALS, needing adult diapers just to use the restroom.
Now, Zhang Chu was about to decide her future!!
“Mingyue, Mingyue!”
Zhao Panpan shook Su Mingyue’s arm. “When did Zhang Chu become the chief examiner of the Martial Arts Research Institute? This is your golden opportunity! Given how Zhang Chu used to fawn over you, you’re bound to be the top candidate among all the early admissions!”
“Su Mingyue, please come to the stage for your assessment.”
Liu Neng called out, snapping Su Mingyue back to reality.
She stepped onto the stage, her gaze never leaving the stern-faced Zhang Chu.
At that moment, the class group chat exploded:
“Liu Daming: Can anyone understand this? The passionate lover Su Mingyue dumped is now deciding her fate! Brother Chu is awesome!”
“@Su Mingyue: The goddess looks so nervous, hurry up and apologize to Examiner Zhang Chu.”
“Zhao Panpan: What nonsense are you all talking? Zhang Chu has feelings for our Mingyue, he’ll definitely give her special treatment this time!”
As everyone kept their heads down, gossiping madly in the group,
Zhang Chu’s voice rang out: “Improper attitude toward the martial arts exam, interview score minus 5 points!”
What?
Seeing Zhang Chu deduct 5 points on the score sheet, the whole school erupted.
Liu Daming shouted in the group, Brother Chu is a real man!
Su Mingyue stood frozen on stage, tears pooling in her eyes: “You… How can you do this?”
“Mr. Zhang, the interview hasn’t started yet. The blood vitality test comes first.”
Liu Neng quickly reminded him.
Zhang Chu said nothing, crossed his legs, twirled a pen between his fingers, and looked at the aggrieved Su Mingyue.
A female teacher beside him hastily instructed Su Mingyue to begin the blood vitality test.

The result matched the registration form.
Vitality value: 153, meeting the requirements for early admission based on her written exam score.
“Congratulations, Su Mingyue. Your written score meets the requirements for early admission. The interview score counts for very little, usually only affects class placement.”
The female teacher patted Su Mingyue’s shoulder.
But the students below started whistling, knowing the real drama was just beginning.
Sure enough,
As soon as Su Mingyue said thank you,
Zhang Chu moved his pen: “Challenging the chief examiner, interview score minus 10 points.”
Class placement in the Martial Arts Research Institute is tiered: A-class at the top, D-class at the bottom.
The martial arts exam interview counts for only 20%.
In theory, the interview only affects which class you join.
But ending up in the bottom class means not only losing face personally, but also bringing shame to the school.
Worse still, you could be assigned to D-class, getting very few martial artist resources.
Interview score: 100 points.
Su Mingyue had barely spoken two sentences, and 15 points were already gone.
Even Huang Wenzhan became anxious, frantically signaling Zhang Chu from afar.
According to regulations, if the interview score is zero, you must enter a second-round supplemental selection or voluntarily join the preparatory class.
He knew perfectly well about the history between Su Mingyue and Zhang Chu.
But this concerned Binzhou University’s ranking and reputation.
The female teacher was about to speak when Liu Neng pulled her aside.
Liu Neng whispered to her, and she immediately calmed down.
Zhang Xueying had personally brought Zhang Chu in—who would dare provoke him?
Even if it was personal revenge, they could only pretend not to notice.
“Zhang Chu, what are you doing? That’s Mingyue! How could you treat her like this after everything you did for her? Are you even a man, being so petty?”
Zhao Panpan couldn’t stay seated any longer, shouting from below.
To her, Zhang Chu now looked like a scoundrel!
“Instigating a student to forge improper ties with the chief examiner, interview score minus 15 points.”
Zhang Chu waved his hand.
Zhao Panpan instantly shut up, staring at Zhang Chu in terror.
Su Mingyue’s tears finally fell.
Thirty points gone!
Even an unattractive candidate wouldn’t lose thirty points in the interview.
The students below were going wild with gossip.

Some were even compiling photos and updates live on the forum.
Even students from other schools had heard the news of Su Mingyue’s disastrous interview score.
“Zhang Chu, if I ever did anything to wrong you, I’m willing to apologize now. But you can’t make a joke out of my future!”
Su Mingyue clenched her fists, bit her lips, sobbing like a rain-soaked flower.
The powerless feeling of having her fate controlled was unbearably bitter.
Swipe, swipe, swipe!
Zhang Chu ignored her, continuing to deduct points.
1: Addressing the chief examiner by name, failed the quality education standard—interview score minus 10 points!
2: Pressuring the chief examiner by retreating to advance—interview score minus 20 points!
3: Poor psychological resilience, detrimental to martial artist development—interview score minus 10 points!
Su Mingyue had spoken only two sentences, Zhao Panpan added one more.
Out of 100 total points, Zhang Chu deducted 70.
Su Mingyue trembled all over, so powerless she nearly burst into tears.
Huang Wenzhan covered his face, unable to show himself: “Why did Su Mingyue have to provoke Zhang Chu, of all people!”
At that moment, news of Binzhou University’s goddess Su Mingyue losing 70 points in her interview had spread across every college in Binzhou.
“Mr. Zhang, I think that’s enough. Su Mingyue’s written score is still decent.”
Liu Neng couldn’t bear it anymore, lowering his voice to plead.
To deduct 70 points from a candidate—what kind of hatred is that?
“Dressed inappropriately, violating the student code of the Martial Arts Research Institute—minus 30 points!”
Zhang Chu waved his hand, and the whole arena exploded.
Wait, what?
What did he just say?
A sexy figure, long JK socks, cute hairpin, a provocative chest—violating the student code?
Liu Neng and the female teacher exchanged bewildered looks.
When did the school have such a rule?
Could this be the first step in Admissions Director Zhang Xueying’s plan to bring in social talent and reform school culture?
At that moment,
Su Mingyue felt her strength vanish, collapsing to the ground.
She had spent the entire morning preparing her stylish yet tasteful outfit, only for Zhang Chu to deduct 30 points for it.
The final straw that broke her was none other than her proud figure!
She stood, approaching.
Zhang Chu slowly placed the score sheet before Su Mingyue: “Su Mingyue, your interview score is zero. Will you choose supplemental selection or the preparatory class?”
