On the morning of May 4th, Teacher Hou woke them up at six o'clock. After washing and having breakfast, they headed towards the auditorium for the competition.
The venue for the competition was a small auditorium in the college. They had inspected it in advance when they visited the campus yesterday, so they found it easily.
When they arrived at the auditorium, they saw a striking banner hanging above the door that read "National Middle School Students' English Talent Competition."
When a few people saw the banner and then looked at the many contestants who had gathered, they only felt the real tension at this time.
"Don't be nervous. When the exam starts, you must write down your name, province and school first, and then answer the questions. Be careful when reviewing the questions, answer them quickly, and write neatly." Teacher Hou instructed them one by one.
For the first written test, the instructors were not allowed to enter the venue, and the two teachers had to wait outside for two hours, which was very tiring for the teachers.
The preparatory bell rang, and Yu Zihan and his classmates walked into the examination room. The badges they wore on their chests were equivalent to their admission tickets.
They found their seats according to the numbers on their badges, a process that took everyone a lot of time.
When they sat down in their seats, there were only ten minutes left until the exam started.
Yu Zihan closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm herself. To be honest, she was very nervous.
When the test papers were handed out, Yu Zihan was no longer nervous. She followed the teacher's instructions and neatly wrote her name, province, and school on the test paper. Then she began to answer the questions seriously.
Yu Zihan originally thought that the questions must be difficult, but when she saw the questions, she felt a little excited because she had basically practiced these questions. Some of them were practiced by Teacher Hou, and some were questions from training in the space.
Yu Zihan finished the two-hour exam in just one. To avoid drawing attention, she carefully reviewed her paper. She glanced at her watch: it was only 9:20. There were still forty minutes left before the exam ended. She double-checked a few questions she wasn't sure about, then stood up to leave the exam room.
Even though she did it silently, it still caught the attention of several students around her, and of course the invigilator's attention.
Because the venue was so large, four invigilators were assigned. They stood in the four directions: east, south, west, and north. At this moment, the four of them approached Yu Zihan from all directions, wanting to see why this beautiful girl had left so early.
When the teachers walked towards her, Yu Zihan felt very regretful. She regretted her impulsiveness. It was only forty minutes. If she just sat there waiting for the bell to ring and leave the exam room with everyone, wouldn't that be a lot of trouble?
Now, her behavior caused the teacher to make a big fuss. She quickly calmed down and comforted herself, thinking that she had finished answering and checking, so it would be funny to just sit there and do nothing.
After preparing herself mentally, when the teachers came to her, she looked at them calmly.
"Student, what's going on? Why did you leave the examination room so early?" An elegant and intellectual young teacher asked, her tone full of concern.
"Teacher, I have finished my test and I have checked it." She lowered her voice deliberately because she didn't want to affect other students' exams because of herself.
After hearing her answer and seeing her actions, the teachers immediately took a liking to Zi Han.
The teachers picked up her test paper and looked at it. After seeing it, they all looked at Yu Zihan in disbelief. This was actually the test paper of an ordinary student from a small city?
The handwriting, the answers, the speed. They felt guilty for their narrow-mindedness. They nodded and said to Zi Han, "Since you have finished the test, please leave. Be careful not to disturb other students."
Yu Zihan quietly left the examination room. The teachers nodded in satisfaction at her test paper.
This scene was seen by a girl nearby.
She is a junior high school student at the High School Affiliated to Imperial Capital University. Her name is Pei Shuyan.
In fact, she paid attention to Yu Zihan as soon as she entered the examination room because she liked Yu Zihan's dress and temperament.
The most important point is that the first time she saw Yu Zihan, she felt that her eyebrows and eyes were very familiar, with the shadow of their Pei family, especially her eyes, which were exactly the same as her uncle's eyes.
If this wasn't an examination room, she would immediately run over and chat with her.
She prepared to finish the test quickly and went to find Yu Zihan. Unexpectedly, he answered so quickly. When she saw Yu Zihan leave, she quickly gathered her thoughts and focused on answering the questions.
When Yu Zihan came out of the examination room, he saw Teacher Hou and Teacher Zhou, who came with them, standing there waiting for them. They looked a little anxious.
They saw Yu Zihan going out from a distance. They ran faster than her and immediately ran towards her.
"How is it?" they asked in unison.
"I've answered all the questions. I know them all, so there shouldn't be any problems." Yu Zihan answered their questions to avoid making them anxious.
"Really? That's great, you passed the first level. Zi Han is awesome!" Teacher Hou patted her shoulder and said.
Yu Zihan stood quietly beside the teacher waiting for other students.
Students came out of the examination room one after another, with different expressions. Some were depressed, some were happy, some were dejected, and some were beaming.
After Pei Shuyan came out, she looked for the figure. She saw Yu Zihan standing there quietly. From his expression and appearance, she was sure in her heart that this person was related to their family.
She racked her brains but couldn't figure out what child was left behind. She was completely baffled. She had considered going over to find out, but since it was a serious matter and they were about to take an exam, she was afraid of affecting both her and the other person's mood. So, she decided to wait until the exam was over before asking.
She liked the girl very much and thought it would be a great thing if she was a relative of hers.
Several of Yu Zihan's classmates came out. They all looked unhappy. Jiang Ying saw Yu Zihan and asked, "Zihan, how did you answer? Why did you come out so early?"
"It's okay." This was the only way Yu Zihan could answer her classmates' questions.
"Oh, I did terrible on the test. There were many questions I had never seen before, and my vocabulary is still very limited. I'm afraid I'll have to go home this time." Her words were echoed by the other two students, who also faced similar problems.
The teacher had basically determined from their conversation that, of the four of them, only Yu Zihan would make it to the next stage. But it was already good enough; having a promising student was enough to satisfy him.
