Over here, Yu Qi was holding Qi Jiu's arm, her eyes filled with star-like admiration.
"Idol, you're amazing! That's Keltan! Keltan! I believe no one was unafraid of that guy in this academic competition, and you won so easily? The rest of the competitions are just a piece of cake for you?"
Yu Qi was laughing so hard her teeth were practically flying off.
However, on the very first day of the competition, it seems that the scene of China's victory can already be seen.
"It wasn't easy either. At the beginning, he was quite persistent with his questions and answers. Besides, Ketan is strong and a formidable opponent. We should also tell Anran and the others to keep an eye on things; they might just be unlucky enough to run into him."
Yu Qi, as a spectator, seemed relaxed watching the game, but it's important to know that her life experience is far richer than that of these students.
Her current strength is indeed enough to achieve the best results in this academic competition, but that doesn't mean that Ketan is a weak opponent.
It seems there are still many people who are afraid of the Khta.
"Where are Anran and the others? I don't know if you can adapt to the food in the US. There's a good Chinese restaurant around here. You can go there since there are no matches coming up."
Seeing so many people on the campus paths, I imagine that students from Erlin University will also come to join in the fun during the competition.
She's used to the food, but she doesn't know if the people around her will be.
Speaking of this, Yu Qi's expression changed slightly as she looked at her phone. "My idol, they're still competing."
"Huh?" The girl turned to look at her. "The competition time is unified, how come you're still competing?"
To make the competition easier to manage, the competition times are all the same, starting and ending at the same time. Why is the first day different?
"According to the message Chang Xiaoyuan sent me, they were originally in the middle of a normal competition, but before the buzzer round, An Ran's opponent suddenly felt unwell, and the competition was delayed by half an hour."
"Feeling unwell? What a coincidence!"
Qi Jiu looked at the bustling path in front of her, a glint of shrewdness flashing in her eyes.
Why did she feel unwell right before the buzzer-beater round? She had just finished the competition, and if she wanted to know the strength of her opponents, the question-and-answer round beforehand was quite important.
For some reason, there's an unsettling atmosphere about this match right now.
"Let's go take a look."
Inside the tiered classroom, Qi Jiu and her companion had just arrived when they saw Chang Xiaoyuan waving at them from the audience.
Perhaps the result of the previous match had already spread online, because when the audience saw Qi Jiu, they couldn't help but point and whisper. Exclamations of surprise rose and fell around them, as if everyone was marveling at her.
But the little girl pretended not to see anything and sat down next to Chang Xiaoyuan.
"What's going on?"
The competition is still ongoing, and the results on stage don't seem very optimistic. An Ran's expression is also a bit stiff.
Judging from the current situation, the results in the first round were better, so why are they lagging behind in the buzzer round?
It seems that if it weren't for the points she gained in the first round, An Ran's mentality would have collapsed.
However, based on the information she had previously reviewed, An Ran's current opponents had a very low chance of winning against her. Moreover, the information she had researched had never been wrong.
Chang Xiaoyuan pursed his lips. "An Ran's opponent is from a country called Saya. She was fine at the beginning of the match, but just now, for some reason, she felt unwell, so the match was delayed by half an hour. That's why the match is still not over."
Listening, Qi Jiu nodded knowingly.
Looking at An Ran on the stage, whose face was somewhat pale, he narrowed his eyes slightly.
The current situation isn't entirely unpredictable; after all, in the match against Ketan just now, Ketan was also very close at the beginning, wasn't he? It's just that the data from this investigation is incorrect.
Enron's opponents are clearly not as simple as the information suggests.
Exam questions leaked? That can't be right, the exam questions weren't just delivered that day, were they unsealed on-site?
"Qiqi, what's with that expression? Is something wrong?"
“Nothing’s right.” As the girl looked up, she met An Ran’s eyes, who was taking a break on stage. His eyes were filled with a bitter smile.
Seeing this, the girl gave him a smile to comfort him.
An Ran performed very well in the previous question-and-answer session, but problems arose later on.
"Hey? Qiqi, where are you going?" Chang Xiaoyuan couldn't help but ask as he watched Qijiu's departing figure.
Didn't I just sit down?
"Get things done, you guys focus on watching the game."
After leaving the lecture hall, Qi Jiu took out her phone and dialed a number, which was answered quickly.
"Hey bastard, is my computer that I left here still there? I need to use it."
In the principal's office, Erlin blinked helplessly at the person who had rushed in and started typing on the computer without saying a word.
"What are you investigating, girl? The competition is finally over, why aren't you taking a break? What, did you come to Erlin University to do some work?"
Looking at the still-loading progress on the screen, the girl turned to the person in front of the desk. "Do you remember the students from the Saya country who are currently competing?"
"The Saya Kingdom?"
The principal murmured, as if recalling something. "I know this country. They managed to assemble two teams, and my impression isn't too bad, considering there aren't any particularly outstanding students. What's wrong?"
The girl stared at the already loaded page, her eyes filled with coldness.
"That's right. The Saya Kingdom is already in the midst of war. These are people that Saya managed to gather with great difficulty. Do you think, with Saya's teaching conditions, how can it compete with China?"
Saying this might provoke a lot of dissatisfaction, but that's the truth.
A country ravaged by war for years is now in dire straits, with many people struggling to find adequate food and shelter. Naturally, the quality of teachers in its schools cannot compare to that in China.
But the current situation is that Saya's students are actually able to fight against Anran. How is that possible?
Just like how a country that has been at war for many years can't possibly compete with China in table tennis, the same principle applies.
"What if, what if he is the smartest, most talented one in the Saya Kingdom?"
The moment those words left the principal's mouth, Qi Jiu rolled her eyes at him.
"Even the most talented one is basically doomed without proper training. Besides, I checked the information of all the participants before the competition, and the most recent results were just two days ago."
As she spoke, the girl moved the laptop in front of her, turning the screen towards the principal.
