Replay of a Prestigious High School EX-Class Supporting Character (1601)
170. New Star (2)
The name of this year's top-ranking incoming student at Eungwang High School is Kang Yi-tan.
His name was rather unique and his abilities were outstanding, yet the newspaper club member in charge of the article could not find out about Kang Yi-tan's middle school days, no matter how hard they tried.
Kang Yi-tan only awakened his supernatural abilities in his third year of middle school, and since the Center was taking away his supernatural powers, he could not even participate in the reserve player division of the youth sports tournament, leaving absolutely no trace of activity.
The newspaper department decided to conclude the article merely for reference, stating that the current top student is from Tanrae Middle School and is involved in the Center incident exposed by Seong Guk-eon.
"At Eungwang High School, you can't get top honors with supernatural abilities alone. That's why Yeom Jun-yeol struggled to beat Cheon Dong-ha. It implies he's good at studying too, so why wasn't that highlighted?"
According to Maeng Hyo-don's middle school teacher, Kang Yi-tan was good at studying to the point where he didn't need to worry about his written exams.
However, considering he was the top student at Eungwang High School, it wouldn't have been surprising if he had swept the competitions, so it was strange that the newspaper club couldn't find anything.
Either they suffered extreme discrimination at Tanrae Middle School, or they became good at studying after awakening their supernatural abilities.
It will be one of the two, or both.
Either way, it was a relief that the junior who had disappeared without a trace from Plmago was able to come to Eungwang High School.
I headed to the living room of the main house to talk about the recent award, but everyone was up early and talking while watching a hologram.
Hwang Ji-ho spoke to me first.
"Jo Ui-shin, did you see that writing?"
"Yeah, I saw a post saying a kid from Tanrae Middle School came in first place."
I didn't see it.
I did see the title of the article, but I thought Jo Ui-shin wasn't important, so I moved on.
Hwang Ji-ho and the white tiger grumbled something at my words.
There were many bulletin board posts or articles that I just glanced at and moved on from when I woke up in the morning, so I couldn't tell what they were referring to.
Hwang Ji-ho spoke before I could even ask what on earth the writing was about.
"Then, shall we talk about the top student first? Among the newly enrolled students, Jo Ui-shin, you know four of them, right?"
Joo Soo-hyeok's cousin, Joo Soo-ri.
Oh Hye-yul, the son of the Oh family who entered school a year early.
Cheon Geum-bin, who almost became Cheon Geum-ha but was revealed not to be Cheon Eun-ha's biological brother.
And Kang Yi-tan, a junior of Maeng Hyo-don from Tanrae Middle School.
