Just Started High School, and an Idol-Raising System Shows Up

Su Bai was a bit of a slow kid from the time he was little.

Slow to react, physically weak...

No matter how hard he tried, he was bad at school.

The high school entrance exam was just half a month away.

The teachers would reshuffle the classes based on the students’ grades.

He worried over his studies and reviewed every day, but he still wasn’t making progress.

Until

[Background: Star Hope is a brand-new idol competition show launched by Pineapple Entertainment. It uses a dual-selection format featuring mentors and star scouts. Bringing together top trainees from across the country, the show boasts a dazzling lineup and unstoppable momentum. Stage competitions and audience participation begin simultaneously, and seven contestants will ultimately debut together in a limited-time group!]

[Final Mission: Rely on your own efforts to stand out among the 1,246 trainees living in the dormitory at Beichuan No. 1 High School, and make your debut in the center position through sheer skill!]

[Main Mission 1: Complete the initial evaluation, stand out among the 1,246 trainees, and receive a high rating from the mentors. The higher your rating (A–F), the greater your reward.]

Su Bai listened to the mission briefing, completely bewildered.

I’m a high school student. I have to become an idol at my high school?

My classmates are my competitors?

And I have to debut in the center position?

Su Bai’s first reaction was to refuse.

But faced with the cold System and the not-so-cold description of the rewards,

he couldn’t resist the temptation and accepted.

Beichuan No. 1 High School was located in a remote area.

Its educational resources were among the worst in the entire province.

Very few of its students got into undergraduate programs.

But one student stood out that year.

According to teachers in the know:

This student showed his talent from his very first exam.

He was a god at math, decent at Chinese, and terrible at English!

He was obviously a very clever kid who just didn’t like studying.

It was only after the teachers pushed him and the visiting teacher from B University worked hard with him that he finally came to his senses.

In the end, he scored nearly 200 points higher than the school’s runner-up, becoming the undisputed top student in the entire school and even the province’s top scorer!

When the news reported on this story,

more people learned about the genius from this remote area.

The moment they saw his photo, many people asked the same question:

How is this kid so handsome?

With looks like that, he could debut on the spot!
