As soon as the words were spoken, everyone's emotions calmed down a bit, and they looked at the scoreboard with a slight tension in their hearts.

4:5.

Class C is one point behind Class B. For the last question, there is absolutely no chance of winning. The best outcome is a draw.

However, the difficulty of the questions has increased so much that two students in Class C have already been unable to answer them, and this last question...

Furthermore, Class B is now fully capable of keeping up with Class C's pace, and Class C may not be able to secure a chance to answer questions.

The students in Class C had a thin layer of sweat on their foreheads, and their nervous palms were placed directly above the text of truth in front of them.

"This is the last chance."

"No matter what, we must win this last question. We've already done a great job getting to this point. At worst, it'll be a draw... If we can draw with Class B, then Class C will have a completely different image."

"Yes! Let's aim for a draw. We've already made it this far, it's not shameful. It's not like we're down 0-5, so don't panic!"

After the children calmed down, they relaxed a lot.

Seeing the children like this, Quan Ji smiled and felt much better.

If the seeds are carefully nurtured, they will surely sprout.

And now, Quan Ji has indeed seen it; they have sprouted.

Winning or losing doesn't matter.

She already knew that the seed she had nurtured would surely bloom into a beautiful flower.

Class B was still shaken, and only began to breathe a sigh of relief when they heard that this was the last question.

They were also discussing, "I never expected Class C to become so strong in just one week... I initially thought we could win easily, it's really unbelievable."

"But it's not surprising. They're working so hard, so their rapid progress is to be expected... Wow, they're memorizing so diligently. I'm scared, we have to keep them in check... We can't let Class C overtake us!"

...

The scene shifts to Cang Mingyou.

He looked at his students with a smile, as if he could see a fire in them, a flame that could make people extremely excited.

He smoothed the two fake mustaches he had just applied and sighed, "This is what an academy should look like..."

If things remain lifeless as before, with everyone just studying their own thing and no competitive edge being generated, what's the point?

The academy is a microcosm of society. If you don't compete with others, you'll be trampled underfoot for the rest of your life!

He coughed twice and then said, "The last question came from a submission by the teacher of Class B."

What is the Dao mind?

This is a debate question, and it's been assigned to the buzzer-beater round? Unbelievable!

When this question was asked, Class B had almost given up on answering it.

They absolutely cannot answer that question; there's no need to lower our expectations of certain victory.

"Ding-dong!"

"Students of Class C, please answer the question!"

Zhang Xuanqi took a deep breath, pressed her hands on the table, and stared intently straight ahead.

This is the problem.

They... will!

At this moment, under the bright sunshine, the girl stood on the podium, a confident smile on her face, her whole body radiant.

She looked at Kwon Ji below the stage.

Quan Ji returned her a smile.

She placed one hand on her chest, unable to contain her overwhelming emotion.

This is the question that Teacher Quan taught them in their very first formal lesson, and they know it!

Zhang Xuanqi's eyes sparkled with a gentle yet unwavering determination that resonated with people's hearts. As they flickered, a hint of joy touched her beautiful face.

"The mind of the Tao is my mind."

"The three thousand Great Daos can all be my Dao, yet none of them can be my Dao, and my Dao is also among the three thousand Great Daos."

"People are all different, and there are countless faces among people; therefore, the ways of the world are also different."

...

After the debate, this gentle girl surprised everyone in many ways.

With her gentlest voice, she cleansed everyone's hearts.

At this moment, she was like a raging fire, possessing an indescribable energy and a beauty that was unforgettable at first glance.

Her voice and her smile are etched in everyone's heart.

After speaking, Zhang Xuanqi did not sit down.

The other four C-class sisters all stood up and bowed in the direction of Cang Mingyou.

Thank you for listening.

Cang Mingyou stroked his mustache, laughing heartily.

"That's a very good answer."

"It seems that Teacher Quan really puts his heart into teaching you."

Zhang Xuanqi and her sisters tried their best to suppress their excitement.

They glanced at Quan Ji, who was standing below the stage with her arms crossed, and answered in unison, "Yes, our teacher Quan has taught us very well."

"We are very grateful to have met Teacher Quan at this time."

Standing below, Quan Ji felt a lump in her throat as she listened to those words, and her eyes welled up with an indescribable emotion.

Her voice remained icy, "Yes, meeting me is your blessing."

That much is undeniable, and Princess Quan does not deny it.

She felt that this was something she had contributed.

It is truly a blessing for them to have found themselves.

Everyone laughed.

Cangmingyou also praised it.

"Alright! I hereby announce that the basic knowledge challenge between Class C and Class B has ended in a draw!"

"Friendship first, competition second!"

"Now, let's shake hands!"
