　The Villainous Young Master Just Wants to Live a Buddhist Life Chapter 515 Darkdemon Goes Against the Tide (1):

　就算是达克自己，在过去的课堂中也没有过这种待遇。104;116;116;112;58;47;47;119;119;119;46;50;99;121;120;115;119;46;99;111;109;47;

　Three teachers and one parent distributed the test papers together on the podium, starting with the lowest score...

　In the past, when the emphasis was on "reducing the burden" and advocating against publishing grades and rankings, this behavior was simply going against the tide.

　However, magical spirits are different from real human children; their tolerance is far greater than that of humans.

　A person needs two hours of rest in a 24-hour day to feel refreshed.

　Even if it doesn't sleep or rest for 24 hours, it can maintain its basic condition.

　Of course, merely maintaining the most basic state is not suitable for learning.

　As Dark walked past the podium, he nodded slightly to the magical elves, then sat down in a corner seat and began to observe.

　Meanwhile, the magical spirits were all secretly glancing in his direction.

　There are confident creatures like Sylveon, and there are also timid and cowardly creatures like Munchlax.

　However, since Munchlax has only just been born, it's understandable that its performance isn't great.

　Just as Dark was pondering this, Ms. Cook, the head tutor, spoke up: "It has been over a month since I began tutoring you. Although you are not human, you are more intelligent than some of the human children I have taught in the past, and most of you are very diligent and hardworking. I have always believed that hard work pays off. Diligent people always get what they want. That's enough of the introduction. Now let's announce the results, starting with the last one."

　The moment the words were spoken, the atmosphere in the classroom froze.

　The magical elves had no idea that this major event would come so early and so suddenly.

　They clearly care more about who comes in last place than who comes in first—after all, that's the most embarrassing and the one who deserves the most sympathy.

　Even before Ms. Cook made the announcement, most of the magical spirits had already focused their attention on Snorlax and Trash Slime.

　It's understandable that the little Munchlax, being newly born and prone to overeating and sleeping, has poor grades.

　The intelligence level of the trash slime is not high. Even with the help of Ms. Plant, it has improved somewhat, but it is still at the bottom.

　These two are undoubtedly strong contenders for last place!

　Under everyone's gaze, Snorlax continued licking its fingers with a silly and cute expression, while the Slime instinctively shrank towards Ditto.

　Who will be the last one?

　With the excitement of an award being revealed, everyone's eyes turned to the podium when Ms. Cook pulled out the first exam paper.

　Ms. Cook glanced at the sight in her hand, then sternly tapped the goofy Munchlax, saying, "Now, the results are in! Last place, Munchlax, score: 0!"

　……

　"0 points?"

　A great deal of noise suddenly filled the classroom.

　Although it was expected that Munchlax would come in last place, probably no one could have imagined that it would score zero points!

　But why can it eat so happily and sleep so soundly even though it hasn't scored a single point?

　Endless questions arose in the eyes of the magical elves.

　Even Dark was taken aback.

　This little Snorlax doesn't have the "Thick Fat" ability...

　"Kaman?"

　The little Snorlax was biting its finger, looking puzzled by the strange looks from its family members.

　"cough."

　Dark couldn't help but ask, "If I remember correctly, this exam has four parts, each worth 100 points, right?"

　“Yes,” Ms. Cook said seriously, “the four subjects are Reading and Writing, Arithmetic, Common Sense, and History.”

　"That is, Chinese Language and Literature, Mathematics, Nature, and History."

　Dak nodded; this certainly met his requirements for teaching.

　But given this configuration, how exactly can one get a zero score?

　Is it possible that I submitted a blank exam paper?

　As far as I can remember, apart from a guy named "Nobita Nobi", there are probably very few people who can master this skill, right?

　"Bring me the exam paper."

　"Dark said to Ms. Cook."

　Ms. Plant, who was standing to the side, stepped forward, took the exam paper, and handed it to him.

　Dak took the test paper, glanced at it briefly, and his face gradually darkened.

　The little Snorlax is learning faster than he expected; at least he can already write his own name quite well.

　They also use phonetic symbols to replace characters they don't know how to write.

　But that's precisely why the problem is so big.

　In that case, we can't use "not being able to read" as the reason for scoring 0 points.

　In particular, the arithmetic test paper contains very basic calculations such as [13 + 14 = ?], but the answer is 1314!

　[13 + 14 = 1314] ? ?

　As Dak continued reading, he discovered that the subsequent questions and answers were filled with not only random scribbles but also crooked and distorted food drawings.

　"This is a matter of attitude."

　He closed the exam paper and said to the audience, "Snorlax, come up here and get your exam paper."

　"Kam!" Munchlax let out a soft hum, then lay down on the chair and happily walked towards Dark.

　Dak handed the test paper to it and then decisively said, "Starting today, your food rations will be halved."

　Snorlax: "Click!"

　Its mouth was wide open, and the whole beast was stuck.

　However, Dak Dimon never lies: "I will have the teachers score your learning attitude after class, and then determine the food allowance for the next day based on the score. Five points is the standard, and for every point above that, 10kg of food will be added, and for every point below that, 10kg of food will be deducted, with a maximum score of 12 points. Do you have any objections?"

　The little Snorlax quickly raised its paws and shouted, "Kamang Kamang!"

　Dark: "ee? Good that you have no objections. You can go ahead."

　So the little Snorlax turned into a statue, holding the exam paper.

　……

　Dark's disciplinary actions made the atmosphere on the scene increasingly tense.

　Ms. Cook took out the book and said, "Second to last, which is 19th place..."

　At this point, she glanced at the audience below and then said sternly, "Sword Sheath, come up and get your exam papers!"

　"Crack!"

　The single sword sheath, leaning against the chair, made a broken sound, as if the sheath had suddenly shattered.

　Meanwhile, the trash slime who sat next to Ditto suddenly perked up, its limp body straightening up.

　Perhaps no one expected that the trash slime wouldn't be in the bottom two.

　The sword sheath floated leisurely to the podium, where it transformed the ribbon into a hand, took the exam paper, and then cautiously peered at its master's reaction.

　But Dark didn't say much like he did with Snorlax; he simply looked at it with a calm gaze.

　As a result, its flight path became even more chaotic.

　"No. 18."

　Ms. Cook then took out the third exam paper and looked at the audience.

　The magical elves all tensed up.

　Snorlax's 0 points broke the lower limit, and the second to last place of Lone Swords is a wake-up call. Nobody wants to be the third person to be surpassed by a trash slime.

　But the difference between those who put in the effort and those who slack off and try to cheat begins to widen as soon as they do so.

　"18th place, Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon!"

　The baby dragon, clutching its head, walked up to the podium with its head down.

　Its cheeks were flushed red, even staining its scales red. It picked up the exam paper and hurriedly fled.

　As the embodiment of "pride", the Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon's pride is hidden deep within its heart, and its outward obedience is merely the innocent attribute given to it by the "baby dragon".

　It didn't study seriously, and even after Munchlax was born, it formed a gluttonous, sleepy, and underachiever duo with it.

　Even in this interim test, it felt that it was good enough not to be at the bottom—however, this laziness made it one of the bottom three!

　The gazes of the magical spirits stung its entire body, causing it pain. Its thick dragon scales and extremely high stats could not prevent their gazes from penetrating.

　The pride hidden deep within was finally unleashed.

　It secretly vowed in its heart that it would definitely listen attentively in class!

　Dark observed the single-edged sword sheath and the blue-eyed dragon, and nodded: "Knowing shame leads to progress; knowing shame inspires courage."

　……

　After the bottom three, there is the 17th place.

　When Ms. Cook took out the fourth test paper, a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

　Although a 17th place ranking is not ideal, it is a significant improvement compared to the student's actual ability.

　She looked up at the trash slime and said, "17th place, slime, Ditto, come up and help it get the exam paper."

　"Busy!"

　Ditto jumped three feet high.

　I was even happier than if I had won first place myself.

　While 17th place isn't much, the Slime was previously in a league of its own. Now, not only has it made great progress, but it has also escaped its bottom-of-the-barrel fate, which is certainly something to celebrate.

　"Papapa!"

　Dak suddenly started clapping.

　"Well done."

　Taking his applause as an opportunity, the magical elves, who were surprised by the trash slime's performance, also clapped, and the applause was thunderous, resounding throughout the classroom.

　The trash slime couldn't help but stand up, its tentacles squeezing out of its body and forming small fists.

　The joy of achieving something in one's studies is immense.

　It needs to keep working hard!

　……

　Once the applause subsided, Ms. Cook began distributing the remaining test papers.

　The 16th place after that...

　"Moon Maiden." Ms. Cook looked at the Moon Goddess's soul and reminded her again, "Moon Maiden, come up and get the exam paper."

　The Moon Goddess's soul, stiff as if its screws were rusted, walked onto the podium with its hands and feet moving in unison.

　Even if she didn't care about "studying" at all, she couldn't accept that she, who was destined to become a god, had ended up ranking 16th out of only 20 students!

　Ranked 16th, just one place higher than the Trash Slime!

　The path from the seat to the podium is like a thorny path, with each step piercing the soles of the feet and drawing blood.

　This is such a humiliation!
