Chapter 97 Walking on the Waves
Nanjiang Province, Provincial Teaching Headquarters.
Conference hall.
Yuan Dongzhi, director of the provincial teaching headquarters, is currently watching the real-time data of the college entrance examination with teaching leaders from various cities in the province.
In front of them, there was a huge projector.
Above the projection, the suitability test results of candidates from each city are displayed.
Yuan Dongzhi stared at it for a while, and his brows couldn't help but frowned slightly.
This year's results seem to be worse than last year's.
Especially in Haiyuan City, which has the lowest teaching level, the candidates' scores are extremely poor.
So far, the number of candidates whose gene fusion suitability exceeds 5% is less than one-tenth of the total number of candidates, far below the average.
"Han Xiao, the college entrance examination results in Haiyuan City, which is under your jurisdiction, are quite poor this year."
Yuan Dongzhi looked at a man in front of him and said calmly, "If things are still like this next year, you should give up your position as the teaching leader of Haiyuan City and realize your own value in Source No. 36."
When the man who was named heard that he was going to be exiled to his hometown, he immediately showed fear on his face.
"Principal Yuan, next year, the gene fusion admission rate in Haiyuan City must be at least 10%. If you can't do that, I, Han Qianxiang, will go down to the source and dedicate myself!"
Under Yuan Dongzhi's gaze, the man signed the military order with cold sweat on his forehead.
Yuan Dongzhi said expressionlessly, "Principal Han, 10% is too little. Let's set it at 20%. If we don't get that much next year, I'll personally send you to the source."
When he heard it was 20%, the man looked pale.
He slumped down in the chair, as if all his strength had been drained out.
How could Haiyuan City reach this number when its education level is so poor?
Go and poach top students from other cities?
But Haiyuan City’s economy is in a mess, where will the money come from?
Yuan Dongzhi's words were tantamount to sentencing the man to death, forcing him to go to the source.
The source land is full of strange beasts, and even high-level creatures can hardly move forward. If they are not careful, they will capsize in the ditch.
For an older gene fusion person like a man who has been living a life of luxury in human society for many years, once he enters the source area and encounters a riot of alien beasts, he is basically doomed to die.
The other city teaching leaders were all well aware of this, and they looked at the man with sympathy.
But no one dared to stand up and speak for him.
As subordinates, they all knew how domineering Yuan Dongzhi's temper was, and they dared not provoke him for fear of getting into trouble.
"Principal Luo, Qianzhen City, under your jurisdiction, has performed very well this year. Several candidates have achieved a gene fusion compatibility of 13%, and one even achieved 14%. This is worthy of recognition. I will allocate more teaching funds to you next year."
After causing trouble for the teaching leaders of Haiyuan City, Yuan Dongzhi turned to praise the teaching leaders of Qianzhen City, emphasizing the clear distinction between rewards and punishments.
Hearing this, the teaching leader of Qianzhen City said with a smile:
"Thank you Principal Yuan for your appreciation. I will definitely live up to your expectations next year and improve Qianzhen City's college entrance examination results."
The teaching leaders of other cities were all extremely envious.
Then, they all congratulated the teaching leaders of Shenzhen City with smiles on their faces.
"With a gene fusion compatibility of 14%, if nothing unexpected happens, this will most likely be the top scorer in Nanjiang Province this year."
"Qianzhen City is going to rise this year."
"Captain Luo, congratulations."
“…”
The teaching leader of Qianzhen City laughed and said, "No matter what, it's all luck."
At this moment, Lin Zichen's gene fusion compatibility appeared in the Shanhai City candidate score area on the projection.
Candidate: Lin Zichen.
Test number: 1207322328.
School: Shanhai Middle School.
Gene fusion fitness: 15%.
When everyone saw the bottom 15%, they were stunned.
Then, they all reacted, their faces filled with disbelief.
"How much? 15% gene fusion compatibility? Is that true? This is almost approaching the 16% of Kyoto geniuses!"
"Lin Zichen? A candidate from Shanhai City? Principal Zhu, you're making a fortune in silence!"
"I didn't expect that the provincial champion is actually from Shanhai City!"
The teaching leaders from various cities present were all shocked by Lin Zichen's results.
Even the teaching leaders of Shanhai City were shocked and confused.
He knew the student Lin Zichen and knew that this student had broken all the records of Shanhai Middle School during his three years of high school.
But he never thought that Lin Zichen's gene fusion degree could be so high.
15%, that's outrageous.
With this result, there is no doubt that he will be the top student in the province!
"Principal Zhu, very good! Next year's education funding will be heavily weighted towards Shanhai City."
Yuan Dongzhi looked at the teaching leaders of Shanhai City and smiled rarely.
She was born in Shanhai City and also worked at Shanhai University. She has a lot of feelings for Shanhai City and has always wanted to be partial to it.
But Shanhai City’s teaching results have never been very good. Even if she wants to be partial, she doesn’t know how.
Now that the provincial top scholar comes from Shanhai City, I can give more funds to my hometown in a legitimate way.
"Thank you Principal Yuan for your appreciation. Shanhai City will work hard to maintain this status next year!"
The teaching leaders of Shanhai City were delighted.
In contrast, the teaching leaders of Qianzhen City had gloomy faces, and their hearts were filled with helplessness and embarrassment due to the ups and downs.
The top spot that was in his hands was gone.
The funding bias is gone.
I feel numb!
Just when everyone thought that the provincial top scorer must be Lin Zichen.
Shen Qinghan's gene fusion adaptability appeared in the Shanhai City candidate score area on the projection.
Candidate: Shen Qinghan.
Test number: 1207322467.
School: Shanhai Middle School.
Gene fusion fitness: 21%.
The moment the number 21% appeared, the entire conference hall fell into silence.
After about a second or two, the leaders' voices of doubt came one after another.
"21%? What's going on?"
"Since the college entrance exam began, the highest score on the gene fusion compatibility test has ever been 18%. How did a 21% suddenly appear?"
"Wrong measurement? Is the machine malfunctioning?"
"Did Lin Zichen make a mistake in the measurement or did the machine malfunction?"
"It's possible."
The leaders were much calmer than expected.
If the figure comes out to be 16%, the leaders will be shocked.
But the result was 21%, which was really outrageous. The leaders' first reaction was that something went wrong during the test.
Yuan Dongzhi didn't say anything, but silently called up Shen Qinghan's student file, projected it onto the big screen, and slowly checked the information.
After reading it carefully, I feel that Shen Qinghan is just an ordinary student, nothing special.
After reading the files, the other leaders became even more convinced that the test must have been wrong. They all complained about the carelessness of the staff at the Shanhai City Scientific Research Base, saying that it was totally wrong and they must be held accountable!
On the other side, Yuan Dongzhi frowned slightly, and also felt that the staff there were too careless.
But considering the possibility, she got up and left the meeting room, going to the base to see what was going on.
Anyway, the base is not far from here and we can get there quickly.
…
In the scientific research base.
The four of them looked at the genetic compatibility displayed on their phones, their faces a little confused.
"What the hell? 21%? Is this a mistake?"
He Yu rubbed his eyes and looked at the phone screen again. Seeing that it still showed 21%, he was full of doubts.
Li Chuxin was speechless. "Are the staff at this base so careless? They uploaded the results without even verifying them. How ridiculous!"
He Yu said: "The test results are automatically recognized and uploaded by the machine. It's no wonder they are like this. Maybe the machine is malfunctioning."
Li Chuxin disagreed: "They should be blamed for the machine failure. This is the college entrance examination. Don't they know to check the status of the machine in advance?"
"It is normal for machines to make mistakes. Checking the machine and finding no problems does not mean that the machine will not make mistakes." He Yu still insisted on his point of view and felt that the staff was not to be blamed.
The two of them talked back and forth like this.
As they talked, they started arguing, and it seemed like they were enemies.
"Xiaochen, why is it 21%? Is this a mistake?"
Shen Qinghan looked at the results on the phone screen and found them outrageous, believing that there was something wrong with the test.
Lin Zichen had a guess in his mind, but seeing that there were many people around, he didn't rush to tell Shen Qinghan.
Instead, he stood up and took her out of the base to a corner where there was no one and no surveillance.
Then, he said to her:
“I don’t think the measurement was wrong.”
"Your superpower is related to water. You are naturally good at water and have a high affinity with water."
"It just so happens that the reagent used to test the compatibility of gene fusion uses the Liuyun jellyfish, an aquatic beast with a strong water attribute."
At this point, Lin Zichen gave his own conclusion: "I suspect that your physique is very compatible with the genes of water-attributed beasts."
After hearing what he said, Shen Qinghan realized this belatedly.
Then, I felt excited.
The gene fusion adaptability is 21%, this is a genius among geniuses!
I am finally worthy of Xiaochen!
At this moment, Shen Qinghan was thinking about this.
From childhood to adulthood, her status and Lin Zichen's status have always been extremely unequal in the eyes of others.
Because of this, she suffered a lot of verbal violence at school and felt very uncomfortable.
If this 21% gene fusion compatibility data is true, then I won’t have to deal with gossip about myself anymore when I’m with Lin Zichen.
At this time, Shen Qinghan's cell phone rang. It was Li Chuxin calling her via video.
As soon as she answered the phone, Li Chuxin's voice came from inside: "Hanhan, where have you been? The staff at the base finally discovered that your data is abnormal, and now they need you to come in for a separate retest."
"Okay, I'll go back now."
After saying this, Shen Qinghan hung up the video call and couldn't wait to return to the base with Lin Zichen.
She wanted to take another test as soon as possible to confirm whether her gene fusion compatibility was really as high as 21%.
Just when she returned to the base and prepared for the relevant staff to go for testing.
Suddenly, huge waves rose on the sea outside the base.
Everyone was startled by the sound of the waves and looked out through the glass.
Then, what came into everyone's eyes was a woman with dragon horns on her head, rapidly approaching the base on huge waves tens of meters high.
…
PS: I am putting out a bowl, asking for monthly votes and recommendation tickets!
