After listening to their self-introductions, the others could not help but nod, their expressions softening.
Xu Dong said with satisfaction, "I don't need to introduce their mathematical talents. They're definitely one-in-a-million mathematical geniuses. Moreover, their achievements in mathematics are unsurpassed among their peers in Capital City. They've even appeared on TV before! Their excellent results are obvious to all! "
After a pause, he continued to look at Ye Lingchen with a burning gaze. "Next, let's invite this student to introduce himself once more!"
Ye Lingchen's expression was unfazed. "Ye Lingchen, Capital University's language major. Current achievements in mathematics, temporarily unavailable."
'Temporarily unavailable?!'
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. How shameless must he be to say something like that?
"Pfft!"
Xu Dong was even more amused. "Student, you're not here to perform crosstalk. You're here for the mathematics competition, for Capital City's honor!"
"Teacher Xu, I'm the one who invited Ye Lingchen," Xu Wanqing could not help but say when she saw Ye Lingchen being targeted.
"Mr. Xu, it's fine that you invited a first-year student for the Math Competition, but he's even a language major. What are you thinking?" Xu Dong's expression was ugly. "This doesn't match at all! I strongly urge for a replacement! "
His words caused everyone to fall into deep thought.
The three old professors looked at each other, showing signs of being tempted.
However, Xu Dong continued, "There are still many top students in Huaqing University and Capital University. It's not too late to make a last-minute replacement. No matter what, at least there's a little bit of assurance and we'll feel more at ease."
"I disagree!" Xu Wanqing rejected immediately. "This spot belongs to me. I naturally have the right to choose!"
"Sigh, Wanqing, come with me." Huaqing University's Professor Bai sighed, then called Xu Wanqing out.
"Wanqing, what's your relationship with Ye Lingchen? Why are you helping him? "Professor Bai looked at Xu Wanqing and asked helplessly.
Xu Wanqing was the pride of Huaqing University. In addition to her high popularity in Huaqing University, she was also a new mentor. That was why she had the right to choose her students. However, no one would have thought that she would be so crazy as to choose a freshman from the language major.
"Help him?" Xu Wanqing was taken aback. She shook her head and said, "Professor Bai, I promise that I have absolutely no selfish motives."
"Wanqing, when you were in graduate school, I also taught you. Your talent in mathematics is the best I've ever seen. The most important thing is that you have a rigorous and serious heart for mathematics. But this time, I'm really disappointed in you!" Professor Bai's eyes dimmed slightly and he sighed softly.
"Professor Bai, Ye Lingchen's mathematical talent is definitely above mine. Please believe me." Xu Wanqing bit her lip and insisted.
"Forget it. Since you're still stubborn, just pretend I didn't say anything." Professor Bai shook his head.
At the same time, in the classroom.
Xu Dong and the others looked at Ye Lingchen with scrutiny in their eyes.
Capital University's Professor An looked at Ye Lingchen seriously. "Student, since you're a student of Capital University, I'll ask you as a teacher of Capital University. Do you really want to participate in this mathematics competition?"
Ye Lingchen nodded.
Professor An was heartbroken. "I don't know why Teacher Xu is helping you like this, but do you know how precious your spot is to Teacher Xu? This time, if Capital University doesn't do well in the competition, it'll be a great blow to her. She might even lose her position as a mentor! "
"Xu Wanqing wants you to participate in the competition with the help of the other two mathematical geniuses and get a good ranking. This will be very helpful to you in the future," Xu Dong said. "However, there are many hidden talents in this competition. You'll no doubt be a huge burden. It might even cause Capital University's results to plummet!"
Everyone looked at Ye Lingchen. In their hearts, they thought that Xu Wanqing wanted to let Ye Lingchen ride on this ride. It was equivalent to gilding him with a layer of gold. Her method was too childish!
What did Ye Lingchen do to deserve to participate in such a competition? If they let such a person win the competition without doing anything, even if Capital University won first place, they would still feel uncomfortable!
As for Zhang Yu and Cao Tongtong, they looked at Ye Lingchen with a hint of hostility and rejection.
It was as if two hard-working geniuses were suddenly asked to lead a good-for-nothing rich second-generation kid to win without doing anything and share the glory with them. That feeling was worse than eating a fly.
"Student Ye, I believe that Capital University students are self-reliant and self-reliant. You should apply to Teacher Xu to give up your spot," Professor An said earnestly.
However, Ye Lingchen shook his head lightly and said seriously, "Since this spot is related to Teacher Xu's future career, then I should participate and strive to achieve good results in this competition."
What?!
Everyone was shocked by Ye Lingchen's words and was dumbfounded.
"You, you, you!"
Professor An could hardly believe his ears. He glared at Ye Lingchen and could not even speak properly. He was so angry that his beard was blowing and his eyes were glaring. His old face was flushed red. "You can't be taught, you can't be taught! You're actually a student of Capital University. I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed! "
The old man was pretending to be calm at first, but in the next moment, he was pounding his chest and stamping his feet. Tears were about to flow out.
As for the others, they were not much better.
Shameless, shameless!
There was actually such a shameless person in the world. It was really an eye-opener for them!
Achieving good results? Was that not the biggest joke in the world?
They looked at Ye Lingchen and felt suffocated. They could no longer speak.
He could say such shameless words without batting an eyelid. This guy … had probably lost his integrity a long time ago.
At that moment, Professor Bai and Xu Wanqing had already walked in from outside. Both of them did not look very good. Xu Wanqing gave Ye Lingchen an apologetic smile.
Ye Lingchen shrugged indifferently.
"Everyone get in the car. We'll rush to the competition venue now." Professor Bai's voice was a little hoarse. He looked at Ye Lingchen and sighed faintly. The competition this time was not looking good!
The others just nodded and silently walked out of the classroom.
In the face of a competition, they should have said some slogans to boost their morale. Even if it did not work, they should have comforted them to reduce the pressure in their hearts. However, at that moment, everyone was clearly not in the mood. All of them got in the car without much interest.
This group of people looked at Ye Lingchen with a hint of unfriendliness, vaguely excluding him. Ye Lingchen did not mind and followed them leisurely …
