Chapter 54 Knowledge Contest, Recommended Admission
"Last week, the school forum's official website announced a national knowledge contest. It seems that the scale of the event is quite large, from the city preliminaries to the provincial level and then to the national level. The top three players will represent the country to participate in international competitions."
As Meng Ying spoke, he took out his phone, quickly logged into the school forum, and found the post. "Here, this is it."
"The online registration will end in the next two days. I think you can sign up for this. Since it is a national competition, there will be many experts, so we won't expect to win the championship. However, if you can survive the city preliminaries, it will be enough to prove your strength."
Huo Yao's eyes fell on the phone that Meng Ying handed over. He only glanced at it and lazily lay back on the table. "Boring, not interested."
The corners of Meng Ying's lips twitched, and he pushed her arm again, "Sister Ju, this is the best way to whitewash yourself. It would be a pity to miss it."
Huo Yao yawned and closed his eyes, "Then I'll miss it."
She doesn't need to whitewash.
Looking at her classmate who was lazy and didn't care about anything, Meng Ying could only sigh silently.

During the second class in the afternoon, Huo Yao was called to the office alone.
Chen Yu looked at the well-behaved Huo Yao in front of him, and his usually stern expression subconsciously softened. "Are you interested in the National Knowledge Contest?"
Huo Yao was stunned and looked at her in confusion.
"Originally, since you just transferred here, I didn't recommend you to participate in this kind of competition. But since you have already signed up, I can't advise you anymore. I just hope you can take more time to review your lessons. After all, you are now in your third year of high school, which is an important year for your life."
Chen Yu said earnestly.
Huo Yao opened her mouth and wanted to say that she did not sign up for the competition, but suddenly she remembered that Meng Ying had tried hard to persuade her to sign up in the morning. After a few seconds of silence, she said "hmm" softly.
However, she soon asked softly, "Teacher Chen, how much is the prize money for the first place in this competition?"
Chen Yu: “???”
It was as if I was hallucinating.
Huo Yao saw Chen Yu's strange expression and understood immediately. His face, which had been full of energy, instantly wilted and even his voice became a little listless. "I'll go back to the classroom first."
Chen Yu: “…”
Chen Yu came to his senses and said to Huo Yao the second before he stepped out of the office door: "Although there is no prize money, you can get a place in Qingdao University. If you win an award in an international competition, your future will be even more promising."
Qingdao University is one of the top three universities in the country. How many people are trying their best to get into this good school. Moreover, the number of admissions each year is limited. If you can get a recommendation place, it is equivalent to having a ticket to be exempted from the exam, which is definitely much more impressive than a bonus of hundreds of thousands or millions.
However, Huo Yao did not feel very excited after hearing these words from her head teacher. Instead, her shoulders drooped even more. Without even turning her head, she replied in a muffled voice, "I know," and then walked out the door.
Chen Yu looked at Huo Yao's gradually disappearing back, her brows subconsciously twisted into a knot. Why did she feel that she, a new student, did not sign up for the admission quota, but for the bonus?
But as soon as this thought came to her mind, she laughed at herself.
Is she crazy to actually mention such a bizarre thing as a recommendation quota to this little girl who got in through the back door? Shouldn't the point be to persuade the other party to do things within their ability?
