Teacher Zhou turned around, her gaze finally landing on Jiang Ziqi. "Jiang Ziqi, am I right?"

Jiang Ziqi, who hadn't sat down yet, nodded, "The teacher is right."

Teacher Zhou seemed to be advising, "It's not too late for you to back out now."

You asked why Teacher Zhou gave Jiang Ziqi a chance to back out at the last minute?

He didn't want to either!

Is that brat Yan Qingnuo from the Bhutan Academy eyeing him covetously?

I should have expelled that troublesome brat Jiang Ziqi from school the day before yesterday, but this kid stopped me. He really has a long reach, even meddling in his forging academy!

If it weren't for the fact that Yan Qingnuo was the disciple of the Dean of the Dan Academy, he would have taught him a lesson about respecting one's teacher!

However, it is still necessary to maintain the last vestige of professional ethics.

Still standing, Jiang declared, "I have no regrets."

Teacher Zhou nodded in satisfaction and continued to uphold professional ethics, "No matter what the outcome is today, I hope you have a bright future. Sometimes, if you're going in the wrong direction, you need to learn to change course in time. Jiang Ziqi, do you understand?"

Jiang Ziqi smiled sweetly, "I understand, Teacher Zhou."

Good!

But with your trash talent, even if you change your approach, you'll never amount to anything!

Teacher Zhou rolled her eyes inwardly, but waved her hand dismissively, "Go sit down."

The students he brought then took their seats in the remaining two seats.

The male student is named Ke Jian, and the female student is named Zhang Jingjing. Both of them are freshmen in Class 3 of the first year. It would be fair for them to compete against Jiang Ziqi, a senior who has been there for many years.

Teacher Zhou explained the rules and precautions for the test, which took more than ten minutes, before announcing, "Let's begin. The test will last for three hours!"

The first step in the forging test is naturally to obtain the necessary materials. To ensure fairness, the materials prepared this time are all relatively common and readily available, and the candidates can choose the materials themselves.

When Ke Jian and Zhang Jingjing heard the order, they secretly looked in Jiang Ziqi's direction, only to see that she hadn't moved at all, with a mocking look in her eyes. Could it be that she had already given up before it even started?

The two ignored her and, pressed for time, got up to choose the materials they needed.

In the audience, some people were cheering, but it was clear that the cheers weren't directed at Jiang Ziqi.

"Jingjing, keep going! Jingjing, keep going..."

"Ke Jian, keep going! Ke Jian, keep going..."

Zhang Xiaoying shouted particularly loudly because Zhang Jingjing is her younger sister, so how could she not be excited and enthusiastic!

However, she unconsciously fell silent as she shouted, and glanced to the side. What she saw made her face turn pale with fright. Senior Yan was looking at her!

Waaaaah, is Senior Yan still not going to let her go?

Ahhh, he's here! He's coming over! He's walking towards her!

He wouldn't hit her in public, would he?

Zhang Xiaoying swallowed nervously, "Senior Yan..." Please don't hit me 555...

"Could you please cheer for Jiang Ziqi as well?"

"ah?"

Yan Qingnuo looked at her, and Zhang Xiaoying reacted, "Y-yes, that's fine."

Yan Qingnuo nodded, "Thanks, remember to speak loudly."

Zhang Xiaoying was confused, "Oh, oh, oh."

It wasn't until Yan Qingnuo returned to her original position that she realized what she had agreed to!

Go Jiang Ziqi!

Her classmates will think she's crazy, won't they?

Just then, someone squeezed in excitedly to ask her what Yan Qingnuo had just told her. Zhang Xiaoying looked at the girl and twitched her lips. If Xiaomian knew what Senior Yan had asked her to do, she would probably drag her along to do something to mess with Jiang Ziqi again.
