Learning is about talent, there is no doubt about it. Some people are diligent and hardworking, and they can only get eight or nine out of ten even if they try their best. Some people are lazy and playful, and can easily get nine or eight.
The same math problem, some people can think of several solutions at a glance where some people rack their brains and do not even know where to start.
Talent determines a person's lower limit.
And some people's lower limit is the upper limit of people that many people can't reach even if they try their best.
Reality is so brutal.
Under the premise of having almost the same amount of talent, the mindset and real-world effectiveness become especially important.
Some people are impatient, even if they have good talent, they will gradually get lost in the imbalance of the mind again and again, wasting their talent.
Some people are calm and introverted, and in the face of people who are more intelligent than themselves, they can also have a determination to fight which will help them to make their future better and secure.
At 2 pm, Edward came out of the office.
He had already looked at the schedule of class 9 of grade 11, which should be in English class at this time, and he was planning to go over and take a look.
Today was the first day of the second semester, and the fact that he had become the homeroom teacher was still unknown to the students of class 9 of grade 11.
He would only go to the class to announce this matter when it was time for the evening study session.
Taking advantage of the fact that there were no classes now for him, it was the right time to go over and observe, to see if the students of class 9 of grade 11 were really as naughty and mischievous as all the teachers and rumors said about them.
He went downstairs and walked along the side of the playground towards the teaching building.
At this time, the playground should be empty as there were no classes for physical education.
But at the end of the playground, Edward saw someone playing basketball. There were six students who were playing basketball in a team of 3.
As Edward looked at the students, he seemed to remember two of them. Edward's complexion changed as he frowned slightly.
'These two of them, weren't they the special enrollment for sports in class 9 of grade 11.'
Miles Andrus has a good talent in long jump and is a sport committee member for the class 9 of grade 11.
And Samuel Brown who practices 5000 meters.
Edward was about to check out their classes, but he didn't expect to meet the 6 students who skipped the class to play basketball on the basketball court.
'Sure enough, they're not the ones who love to study.'
But the main point was that the dean hadn't come to catch them in the act, which made Edward very surprised.
Edward did not say anything and walked towards the basketball court.
As he approached, a system's panel suddenly appeared in front of him. Like a notification showing the information of the student in front of him.
[Name: Miles Andrus
Age: 17
Height: 172 cm
Weight: 67 kg
Talents: Physics (Average), Math (Poor), English (Average) Long Jump (Excellent) Football (Demonic) ...
Mentality: Good
Real-world effectiveness: 0]
[Name: Samuel Brown
Age: 17
Height: 173 cm
Weight: 69 kg
Talents: Physics (Good), Math (Good), English (Good) Long-distance running (Excellent) ...
Mentality: poor
Real-world effectiveness: -10%]
The system's panels display the information of all the students who were playing basketball on the court.
Edward looked at the information and was surprised when he saw Miles' information.
Miles Andrus, who is practicing long jump actually had demonic level football talent?
'How come I've never heard of it before? I've never seen him play football either.'
Edward had seen Miles in his practice session performing long jumps. And all he needs is more practice and exercise to sharpen his skills and it should not be a big problem for him to enter the provincial team.
This was because after binding with the system, all of Edward's sports talents were raised to the highest peerless level.
Therefore, he wasn't sure which level his original long jump talent belonged to.
'Was it as excellent as Miles Andrus? Or was it a higher level demonic? There was no way to prove it.'
After a brief thought, Edward came to an answer.
As the old saying goes: "Geniuses in obscurity were called thousand kilometer horses who had not yet met their [Bo Le]".
(Bo Le means a good judge of [especially hidden] talent.)
Miles Andrus had a demonic level of football talent. But he himself doesn't know about it or he had tried playing football before. If Miles doesn't know about his talent in football, then how can other people know about it. Even Edward came to know about it with the system's help.
As the most popular and loved sport in the world, football was well known for its development within the Central City.
In this city, there are many boys and girls who like to watch football games.
There are countless fans of the five major leagues, the Champions League, the World Cup, the Copa America and the others.
But when it comes to playing football, the number of people will be reduced to nearly none. Because people are afraid of injury in football.
It's not surprising that Miles Andrus likes to play basketball but not football. It's just that his demonic level of football talent was being wasted.
Edward's started to think again, it seems like he has to find an opportunity to let Miles play a football game, to see if he will be able to reveal his terrifying football talent.
Then he looked at Samuel Brown.
Also as a special enrollment because of sports, his talent was a bit worse than Miles.
His strongest talent in long-distance running was only at an excellent level.
On the contrary, his academic talents were all quite okay, basically at a good level. Looking at it this way, he really didn't love studying.
Otherwise, Samuel Brown is too talented to be reduced in the class 9 of grade 11.
It was also the first time Edward saw that a person's real-world effectiveness was actually negative -10%.
'Doesn't that mean that Samuel fails every test?'
Edward didn't know if this was one of the reasons why he didn't like to study.
The few students who were playing basketball, glanced at the shadow and saw that it was Edward. But the movements of their hands didn't stop and they continued to play basketball.
Among the 6 people, Miles raised his eyebrows and took the lead in greeting Edward.
"Afternoon Edward Sir.."
He was the physical education committee member of class 9 of grade 11 and practiced long jump, so he was naturally familiar with Edward.
Moreover Miles had heard the name of Edward's. He had also taken Edward as his idol for a while.
To be selected for the national team at the age of 17. Miles thought that he couldn't do it. Because he was exactly 17 years old this year.
He didn't even get a spot on the provincial team, let alone the national team.
For Edward, Miles was a good student because in physical education class, Edward had guided him more than once.
"Afternoon Edward Sir."
With Miles taking the lead, a few others followed suit and greeted Edward, but still didn't stop their hand movements.
All of them did not know that Edward had already become their homeroom teacher.
For a physical education teacher, most of the students have respect. After all, physical education class was one of the few times they could relax and exercise.
Perhaps, this was one of the reasons why Principal Thomas Moore chose Edward to be the homeroom teacher of the class 9 of grade 11.
Edward leisurely walked toward the basketball court and said to the students with a smile, "You guys don't have a class, huh?"
This was a typical question. He knew that the class 9 of grade 11 had been strategically abandoned by the principal and the other teachers.
Since it was already so bad, it was naturally asking for trouble to use the usual way of leading and teaching the class.
Edward had thought about it, since he, a physical education teacher, was allowed to be the homeroom teacher, then it would be better to take a path of leading and teaching the class 9 of grade 11 that no one else had taken.
"English class, it's no different from listening to prayer, so we thought that we might play basketball to warm up."
Miles laughed and said as he played. The few of them, on the contrary, had no answer for Edward.
Because physical education teachers can not control their other subjects.
"That's right, I heard that in the future, the exams for English classes will be canceled, so there's no need to learn."
Tall and thin Samuel Brown took the pass and with a dribble pass through the defense and made an easy layup.
