"Everyone doesn't need to work hard. If you want to come to class, just come and audit." Someone else said.

"Yes, Senior Brother Wu, you might think that arranging for one person to audit the class is no big deal. What's the difference between teaching a class to 20 people and 21 people? One more person doesn't make much of a difference. But have you ever considered that one person auditing the class reminds others that even if they don't get a spot, they can still audit the class. If everyone else follows suit, then what's the point of all our efforts? Let's just have everyone audit the class, move to a bigger classroom, and have a larger class."

"Yes!" everyone said.

Wu Xiaoye frowned, sighed, and turned to Tan Mo with an apologetic look on his face. "I'm sorry, I didn't handle this properly. I didn't expect everyone to be so resistant to having someone sit in on the trial."

"Senior brother doesn't seem to understand why they are resisting." Tan Mo said from the side.

"You understand?" Wu Xiaoye was very surprised.

He did not underestimate Tan Mo.

But Tan Mo is only 15 years old.

Even if you have a very high IQ, you can't understand these people's psychology clearly.

"It's actually very easy to understand," Tan Mo said. "Brother Wu, you think that learning knowledge is a good thing, and the more people are willing to learn, the more we should encourage it. You don't care if someone has learned the same amount as you. You're used to doing research with Professor Tang, and you're single-mindedly devoting yourself to academic research, driven by a thirst for knowledge, a desire to uncover more of history, to gain a deeper understanding, to help the world understand history a little better and gain a deeper understanding."

"Like Professor Tang, you have transcended the world of competition. Your vision is even greater. What you are doing is not about understanding more yourself, but about hoping that more people can understand more. You are the liberators of knowledge, and we are the absorbers of knowledge."

"Your hearts are in the world, in the past, and in the future." It lies in the history of the past and in leaving more for the future.

"But they are different." Tan Mo did not point directly at anyone.

But everyone present, from Wu Xiaoye to the 20 students, knew that Tan Mo was referring to the students present.

"Their ambition is still about competition, about being noticed by Professor Tang, whether it's joining his team or becoming his disciple. At the very least, they hope to get Professor Tang's recommendation and enter certain fields or departments. In short, it's all about their future careers and prospects."

"The school has this system in place to motivate students and encourage the survival of the fittest, which isn't wrong. After all, Professor Tang is young and doesn't have much energy. The seniors have worked hard to earn spots in Professor Tang's classes, and this is the result of their own efforts. Others want to get a piece of the action without putting in any effort? Of course they wouldn't want to. It's like a tour guide you paid for, and suddenly someone gathers around to listen, even pushing you, the one who actually paid, away, making it difficult for you to see or hear clearly. That person who paid would probably be angry."

"It's not that the seniors are wrong, it's just that their thoughts are different from yours." Tan Mo relaxed and spoke to Wu Xiaoye in a rare serious and somewhat solemn manner.

There are not many times when Tan Mo shows this attitude.

When she told her three brothers that they must protect themselves first at all costs, she was unusually serious.

It’s not much different from the attitude now.

Wu Xiaoye had a clear mind, and Tan Mo could feel the clean aura around him.

This is because he is focused and his mind is clear.

That's why Tan Mo rarely spoke to Wu Xiaoye so seriously.

Wu Xiaoye was stunned for a few seconds and nodded.

He understood.

The 20 students in the classroom were silent at this time.

Their faces turned a little red, as if Tan Mo had hit the nail on the head.

I blush because my thoughts are not pure.

But also a little embarrassed and annoyed.

Even though what Tan Mo said came true, does that mean they are wrong?

no!

Why did they work so hard to get into Peking University?

Isn’t it just to give yourself a better future?

They continue to work hard at Kyoto University in order to have a good future after graduation!

What's wrong with working hard?

What's wrong with working hard for yourself!

They are just ordinary people. They cannot devote themselves solely to academic research. So what?

Besides, if I can really be noticed by Professor Tang, I can do academic research with Professor Tang.

If you treat academic research as a job and still work hard to complete it, does it matter whether your intentions are pure?

They were ashamed and angry, and they refused to accept the consequences.

More importantly, these words, which seemed to strip off their clothes and skin together, leaving them completely uncovered as if only flesh and blood were left, made these people who were much older than Tan Mo feel embarrassed.

It was as if I had been seen through and understood.

"It's my fault." Wu Xiaoye nodded, understanding. "I neglected it and didn't handle this matter properly."

"It's okay." A voice came from the door.

Everyone looked over.

Professor Tang walked in holding teaching materials.

He placed the teaching materials on the podium and said to everyone, "I asked Wu Xiaoye to arrange for Tan Mo to audit my class. Because she is talented, I personally went to find Tan Mo and asked her to attend my class."

At this moment, some people gasped loudly.

Some people hold their breath unconsciously.

But everyone was looking at Professor Tang.

Some people couldn't help but look at Tan Mo.

They work so hard just to be selected by Professor Tang.

It's like crossing a single-plank bridge. First, you have to be in the top 20 in the department, and then you have to compete to be the best in this class.

As a result, Tan Mo was directly noticed by Professor Tang!

Isn't she a freshman?

The school has just officially started and we have only had a few classes, but Professor Tang can already see the talent?

Many people are jealous and dissatisfied.

"Don't worry too much," Professor Tang said. "I don't think Tan Mo will be able to teach here for much longer."

Professor Tang's original intention was indeed to select people from these top students.

Even if their current strength is not enough to join his team as official members, they can still do some trivial collection and sorting work on the side.

Besides, they are only sophomores, it’s still early.

We need to observe for a few more years.

But after hearing what Tan Mo said, Professor Tang looked at the faces of these students again.

These students are just children to Professor Tang.

No matter how much a child plans, he still appears immature.

Professor Tang could tell what they were thinking from those faces at a glance.

Tan Mo was right.

But Professor Tang just glanced at it indifferently and said nothing.

They are all a group of children, and as Tan Mo said, their ideas are not wrong.
