"You did it on purpose!" Bai Ling glared at Ye Lingchen hatefully. "Are you even human? How dare you bully a girl like me!"
"Old Man An, the students in your school are really inhumane!" Professor She was also anxious and had already come to argue with Professor An.
Seeing his proud disciple being teased, he really couldn't bear it anymore.
"Old Man She, it's a coincidence. I guarantee that it's definitely a coincidence!" Professor An's face was serious, then he smiled and shouted at the stage, "Student Ye Lingchen, be gentlemanly. Watch your gentlemanly. Don't be too ruthless."
The fifth question.
Bai Ling quickly scanned through the question and recited in her heart. This time, she felt that she had burned her potential and burst out as fast as she could.
Before she opened her mouth, she sneaked a peek at Ye Lingchen, then quickly moved her lips and blurted out, "The answer this time is 8848."
After saying that, she let out a long sigh of relief, then looked at Ye Lingchen proudly.
Ye Lingchen responded with a smile and said, "Student Bai Ling, you're too careless. There are two answers to this question. One is 8848, and the other is 360. Thanks for letting me win again."
"I …"
Bai Ling almost vomited blood. Ye Lingchen gave her too much pressure, causing her to rush for results without thinking too much.
"I'm not competing anymore. I forfeit!" She glared at Ye Lingchen and said through gritted teeth.
Facing Ye Lingchen required a great deal of resistance to pressure to the end. That guy's strength was too freakish!
"Hahaha, Old Man She, I'm really sorry this time. Who asked you to be matched with our school's Ye Lingchen? Don't feel too bad. The ranking is just an empty title." Professor An laughed at Professor She and was extremely proud.
"Tsk, you guys got lucky this time to have such a genius student!" Professor She snorted and did not want to stay there for a moment longer.
There was no suspense in the next round. Ye Lingchen was unstoppable, and those who were matched with Ye Lingchen could only blame their bad luck. Capital City secured first place.
"Student Ye Lingchen, you've brought glory to Capital City today. On behalf of all the major schools in Capital City, I thank you!" Professor An, Professor Bai, and Professor Tang said solemnly to Ye Lingchen at the same time.
"You're too kind, professors," Ye Lingchen replied humbly.
"There's also Teacher Xu. It's all thanks to her this time. Otherwise, we would have missed out on such a good mathematical genius. Teacher Xu has a discerning eye and unique vision. She's a good teacher!" Professor Bai said again.
"Student Ye Lingchen, I was in the wrong earlier. I apologize," Xu Dong said sincerely.
"Um, we're sorry for underestimating you." Cao Tongtong and Zhang Yu looked at each other, then stood up and apologized to Ye Lingchen.
"It's fine." Ye Lingchen waved his hand. At his level, he would not take such trivial matters to heart.
"Student Ye Lingchen, congratulations on getting first place!" Xu Wanqing said with a smile. "This time, you've made a great contribution to Capital City."
Everyone nodded and sighed emotionally.
It was truly a gathering of geniuses, each more powerful than the last. If it were not for Ye Lingchen's sudden appearance, it would be a miracle if he could enter the top five, let alone first place.
"With your mathematical talent, it's a pity not to enter the Mathematics Department. Staying in the Literature Department is a great waste of your talent!" Professor An looked at Ye Lingchen and suggested, "Why don't I apply for you to come to my Mathematics Department? I'll guarantee you a master's degree."
"That's right." Professor Bai also nodded and said, "Student Ye Lingchen, if you want to change schools, our Huaqing University is definitely a good choice. As long as you say the word, I'll immediately transfer you to Huaqing University's Mathematics Department. Not only can you guarantee a master's degree and a doctorate, but you can also find a good job after graduation!"
"F * ck! Old Man Bai, what's the meaning of this? We were teammates just a moment ago and now you're trying to steal my student?! "Professor An instantly panicked and roared with a flushed face and neck.
"Old Man An, he's from the Literature Department, not your student. How can you say that he's stealing? Besides, he's such a good seedling. Can't I compete fairly? "Professor Bai said indignantly.
"You're trying to steal my Capital University's student. You … shameless!"
The two professors instantly disregarded their image and started scolding each other. Neither was willing to give in to the other. The boat of friendship capsized just like that.
Fortunately, they were old, or else they would have started fighting.
"Thank you for your kindness, professors. I don't have any plans to change departments for the time being. The Literature Department is fine," Ye Lingchen said.
Professor Bai and Professor An finally quietened down.
"Forget it. With your Mathematics level, you won't be able to learn much even if you go to the Mathematics Department. Whenever you want to change departments, just look for me," Professor An said.
Everyone got into the car and slowly drove back to the school.
On the way back, the atmosphere was much more relaxed. There were even a few laughs from time to time. It could be said that they were returning with glory.
Ye Lingchen sat by the window and quietly watched the passing scenery pass by him.
Since he had nothing to do, he took out his mobile phone. Weibo or TikTok were both good ways to kill time.
Weibo's trending searches were filled with entertainment news and some strange things. Ye Lingchen only took a quick glance and finally saw an activity on Weibo.
"Literary Poetry Competition."
That activity was open to the public. It was a collection of original poems. It was also a form of remembrance and inheritance of culture.
The trigger was, of course, due to the appearance of Celestial Bane some time ago. Traditional literary writers collectively came forward to bombard it, causing a huge commotion. In addition to that, Y-God wrote a poem on the spot during his live broadcast of Study of the Three Kingdoms.
Those incidents made many people interested in poetry. Weibo took advantage of that and launched that activity. It immediately attracted the attention of many people. The number of replies and followers kept increasing. Below it, there were all kinds of poems. Of course, most of them were for entertainment and pranks. It fully reflected the netizens' intelligence and mischievous heart.
For example, "New Quiet Night Thoughts. Moonlight shines in front of the bed. Li Bai drinking rice soup. Drinking a big bowl. Peeing his pants at night. "
Although those things had no meaning, it made people happy and relaxed.
Ye Lingchen looked at it for a while, then logged out of Weibo and started scrolling through TikTok.
Soon, however, he frowned slightly and looked at the video on TikTok.
The road in the video was very familiar. It should be near the university town. The TikTok user who sent that message opened a cosmetics store. It was probably an online celebrity store with a lot of likes.
The video started in their own store. All kinds of cosmetics were available and the decorations were not bad. However, the video changed slightly and he could see another cosmetics store not far away. The sign on the door was a large "Y".
The TikTok user's voice was also heard.
"In this world, it's really everywhere to ride on popularity. There's no limit to it. There's actually someone who opened a store called Y Cosmetics. Hehe, I've been to this store before. The cosmetics look branded, but they're all fake. Friends around the university town, take note. Don't go to this store!"
