I Get Stronger When Called Up - Chapter 8

Fang Qimai used to be unremarkable, with consistently stable grades. Among the 42 students in the class, he usually ranked 40th or third from the bottom. Apart from his good looks and excellent athletic performance, there were not many outstanding qualities to be seen. He didn’t like to communicate much with others and was considered a relatively reserved person in the class. He seldom spoke, giving off an air of being very discreet.

This time, because Xiao Bixue took the initiative to ask Fang Qimai for help with some questions, it caused dissatisfaction among many of the sycophants in the class. Everyone was eager to see Fang Qimai’s next move.
“Someone actually dares to stand up to Brother Jian?”
“This guy didn’t get criticised for the physics test, this time he should get beaten up, right?”
“Heh, he doesn’t even realise who he’s provoking. Brother Jian could crush him in an instant.”
“This is interesting, the audience is ready to see a good show.”
…

Jiang Zejian glared at Fang Qimai. Fang Qimai, however, seemed unfazed. He pointed to the drawing in Jiang Zejian’s hand and said, “What’s wrong with your drawing…?”

“What is wrong with my drawing? Do you even know how to appreciate it? Hey, don’t think that I’ll let you off the hook if you flatter me a little! I’m telling you, this is not over between us!”

Jiang Zejian tried to regain his dignity. He might have been the underdog in the noon basketball game, but when it came to drawing, Fang Qimai didn’t know a thing! He was the only art student in the class, and no one understood the art of drawing better than him.

Fang Qimai said, “Let me have a look.

Jiang Zejian hesitated for a moment, revealing a hint of a confident smile. “Here, take it. Be careful not to damage it! Take a good look at this lord’s masterpiece! See what true art is!””What do you mean by a masterpiece?”

Fang Qimai took a look and saw that it was a sketch that vaguely resembled Xiao Bixue’s profile, but at most it only resembled her by about thirty percent.

“I really can’t judge your drawing.”

“Haha, that’s nonsense! With my talent and foundation, how could it possibly be something you could casually appreciate?”

Fang Qimai nodded. “That’s right, this kind of trash is beyond my appreciation.”

Jiang Zejian froze for a moment. “Trash? You mean garbage?”

“Confusion Value of Jiang Zejian: +10.”

The entire classroom fell silent, each student’s eyes wide with shock.

“Fang Qimai actually called Brother Jian’s drawing rubbish?”

“No way… Did I hear wrong? Brother Jian was not only confronted, but also mocked?”

“Wow, I don’t think Fang Qimai even knows how to write the word ‘death’!”

…

Fang Qimai received another wave of confusion value from the whole class.

Jiang Zejian felt completely humiliated.

Used to being arrogant at school, he was suddenly at a loss for words.

“Did you… did you hear that? He said my drawing was rubbish? Kid, what the hell do you know? How dare you teach me, an art student?”

Anyway…

The so-called artwork of an art student was nothing but a joke in the eyes of Fang Qimai, the master of art appreciation.

Fang Qimai pointed out various parts of the drawing, saying, “The proportions are wrong, the perspective isn’t handled well enough, the relationship between light and dark is flawed, and the lines aren’t clear enough. Overall, it has no merit. If I had to give a score, I’d give it a maximum of 9.5 points.

“9.5? That’s still not too bad…” Jiang Zejian was pleased with himself.Fang Qimai added, “By the way, the full score is 100.”
“Confusion Value of Jiang Zejian: +12”
“Damn it! Don’t talk nonsense!”
Riiip–
Fang Qimai immediately tore Jiang Zejian’s drawing in half.
The whole class was shocked by this scene.
“He actually tore Jiang Zejian’s drawing?!”
Oh my God!
Jiang Zejian was on the verge of collapse.
Did Fang Qimai not know how to write the word ‘death’?
Unexpectedly, Fang Qimai folded the drawing again.
Jiang Zejian’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Riiip–
“Ah…”
Ruan Meng and Xiao Bixue were stunned. The drawing had been torn apart again right in front of their eyes…
Fang Qimai stuffed the four torn pieces of paper into Jiang Zejian’s hands and said nonchalantly, “Go practice more at home, you’re not qualified to boast about your drawing yet.
“You!!!”
This stunning scene left the whole class stunned.
“Is that really a drawing being torn apart? It’s Brother Jian’s face being ripped apart!”
“Brother Jian’s dignity was shattered on the spot?”
“This is truly a small cow in labour – absolutely awesome!”
“Confusion Value of Ruan Meng: +2”
“Confusion Value of Liu Meimei: +3”
“Confusion rating of…
…
Jiang Zejian was even more enraged, his eyes bloodshot and his face flushed red.
First, he was confronted by Fang Qimai, then he was mocked, and now his drawing was torn apart?!
That kid wasn’t so arrogant before!
Was he thrown off by the basketball game at noon?
“Confusion Value by Jiang Zejian: +13”
If Jiang Zejian didn’t explode in anger, where would he save his face?
How would he maintain his authority in the classroom?
Full of rage, he grabbed Fang Qimai’s collar with one hand and pointed a finger at Fang Qimai’s nose with the other, “You brat? Have you forgotten who I am? How dare you tear up my drawing? Do you think I can make you regret it? I’m telling you, you’d better watch out after you leave school today!”
It’s over…
Fang Qimai is about to be beaten…
The whole girls’ class was terrified.
Liu Meimei stood on the side, her heart in her throat.
“Qimai… why did you have to provoke him…”
“Ring the bell quickly and please send a teacher… I’m begging you…”
…
However, Fang Qimai calmly replied, “Hey, hey, we’re in our third year of high school and you’re still acting like a little thug, huh?
By the way, what did Xiao Bixue just call you? Immature?
Well, since we’re both adults now, can you try to be a bit more mature like me?
The whole class fell silent and swallowed hard.
No one expected that Fang Qimai, who had always been inconspicuous, was actually tough…
No one had ever dared to teach Jiang Zejian such a tough lesson in front of everyone.
For a moment, Jiang Zejian was speechless, being taught by Fang Qimai on the spot?
“Confusion Value of Jiang Zejian: +13”
Jiang Zejian glared at Fang Qimai, if he let Fang Qimai off the hook like that, it would be truly embarrassing.
How could he hold his head high in front of the whole class?
What happened at noon was humiliating enough.
If it got out, how would everyone in the school see him?
Fang Qimai added, “First of all, your drawing is really rubbish…”
“You!!!”
“Confusion Value of Jiang Zejian: +15”
Jiang Zejian couldn’t stand it anymore, no matter what, he had to beat up Fang Qimai today!
Fang Qimai checked his data.
[Current Confusion Value: 1002]
Finally, he had had enough.
He had been deliberately provoking Jiang Zejian just to generate more Confusion Points.
For every 1000 Confusion Points, he could use the <Absolute Command> once.
Now comes the fun part!
Which command should he use this time?
