Chapter 442: Chapter 442

Anna shrugged indifferently. How could she possibly find such child's play English challenging?

"When did you start learning the Island Country language?" Senior Sister Qingmei suddenly asked in Island Country language.

"I was about eight, around that time I watched some Island Country animated series and mastered the language," Anna replied promptly in Island Country language, not showing any weakness.

Seeing that Anna could actually respond, Senior Sister Qingmei's competitive spirit flared up; she couldn't believe that Anna's proficiency in lesser-known languages could surpass her own!

The crowd, witnessing the two exchange in lesser-known languages, quickly gathered around. Such a scene was exceedingly rare; after all, how many people had the ability to spar in lesser-known languages?

They were all wondering just how many languages these two knew.

"I bet a pack of spicy strips, Anna definitely knows at least four languages. Senior Sister Qingmei is certainly no match for her," said Little Fatty, munching on his spicy strips.

"Hmph! You must be a freshman, right? Just eat your spicy strips and mind your business. Senior Sister Qingmei is well-known throughout the school as an expert in lesser-known languages. Even many teachers from the foreign languages faculty can't match her when it comes to language skills. She's especially adept in multiple languages, reportedly proficient in no fewer than eight."

"Well said. A mere freshman dares to challenge Senior Sister Qingmei's authority in the realm of lesser-known languages. Truly ignorant of the ways of the world!"

"Senior Sister Qingmei's linguistic talent is extraordinary, and she has always practiced diligently. She gets up before dawn and studies until after midnight. To say she is the most hardworking student in our school isn't an overstatement. As the saying goes, 'hard work pays off,' and her ability in languages is naturally unrivaled."

Everyone, except the clueless Little Fatty eating his spicy strips, was not optimistic about Anna. After all, Senior Sister Qingmei's abilities were well known. Yo.ur@ supp&o#rt on M*|!V|%L-8EMP*Y&R* ke+ep%s th^is. ser$ie.s goin%g.@

However, when Senior Sister Qingmei spoke languages such as French, Russian, Fusang language, and others, Anna could respond fluently to each one!

This left everyone stunned. This pure and pretty junior was actually a language prodigy!

Indeed, everyone agreed that this was beyond the scope of a top student—it was the realm of a learning deity!

Senior Sister Qingmei herself was also amazed, but beyond her surprise, she felt admiration. It was the feeling of a high and lonesome pursuit that finally found a sympathetic soul.

She said, "I'll say one last thing in Burmese language, which I've recently started learning. If you can respond to that, then I will truly admire you!"

Jiang Xuezhun laughed, "Burmese? Then you don't need to test her, because she is Burmese herself."

As she spoke, Jiang Xuezhun took out the passport she had been keeping for Anna.

Seeing the clearly printed "Myanmar" along with the official stamp on it, Senior Sister Qingmei felt somewhat disheartened and said with a wry smile, "You, a Burmese person, can speak the Huaya language so fluently that one would never sense you're a foreigner. You've surpassed me already. If I were a foreigner, I would not have the confidence to learn Huaya language to your level. You must have put in great effort."

The crowd nodded in agreement. The Huaya language was definitely one of the world's most difficult to learn, and Anna's proficiency was truly astonishing.

Anna smiled modestly and said, "Senior Sister Qingmei, don't flatter me. I really don't like studying much. This is just natural talent. Just by watching anime and movies, I learned how to speak the language."

Not just Senior Sister Qingmei, but the entire crowd was speechless.

You claim not to want praise, but isn't this outright boasting?

There is nothing more deflating than hearing "I didn't really try; it's just natural talent."

When such an exceptional person strives, what's the point of our efforts?

Xu Hao was also somewhat helpless. You might think she's simple-minded, but sometimes she's craftier than anyone, able to leave you speechless with a single sentence.

Under the complex, and even murderous, gazes of the crowd, Xu Hao led Anna away.

Watching Anna's departing figure, Senior Sister Qingmei lamented, "Ah, it's true what they say: comparisons are odious. Talent is so important. But if someone as gifted as her is working hard, and I don't, wouldn't my gap with others widen even further?"

Collecting her emotions, she worked to appear more cheerful and then continued with her work at hand.

But because of this event, Anna's reputation spread rapidly among the students.

There were many pretty girls. Although Anna was one of the most outstanding among them, she wouldn't have been remembered for long had she not possessed such an exceptional trait.
