Huo Yao hugged the trophy and listened quietly to the Principal without saying a word.
"The International Quiz Contest is filled with experts. Today's questions are considered beginner questions. In the past, even if our country ranked first in the National Quiz Contest, they might not be able to make it into the top 10 in the International Quiz Contest."
The Principal smiled bitterly and shook his head. He turned to glance at Huo Yao and said, "Huo Yao, you are the first student to score full marks in the National Quiz Contest. I think you stand a chance of making it into the top 10."
In the past, he had thought that it would be fine as long as she could make it into the top 30 in the International Quiz Contest. However, after today's National Quiz Contest results, he changed his mind. He felt that this young lady was far more capable than he had imagined.
He did not dare to dream of ranking first in the International Quiz Contest, but he could still pray for her to make it into the top 10. What if she managed to create a miracle?
Huo Yao stood by the side of the road. The traffic light was still red. When the countdown reached three, she suddenly tilted her head and looked at the Principal. She said in a serious tone, "I think you can set your goal more accurately."
The Principal was stunned. He did not quite understand what she meant.
When the light turned green, Huo Yao stepped onto the zebra crossing and said casually, "For example, number one."
The Principal's eyes widened. He was stunned by her words for five seconds before he snapped out of his daze and followed her.
Number one was a terrifying goal.
The Principal looked at Huo Yao's back as she walked at a moderate pace. Her slender back was ramrod straight, and she exuded an aura of arrogance and confidence.
His heart suddenly boiled with excitement as though it had been ignited.
Perhaps... he could look forward to it.

After returning to the hotel, Huo Yao rested for a while before packing her luggage. Her flight back to City S was at 7 pm, and it was almost 5 pm.
She would be gathering at the airport soon.
Huo Yao took the time to buy some gifts while waiting for her flight.
The two giant babies and the two clowns were all gold-devouring monsters.
It was still early after she bought the gifts. Huo Yao placed the gifts by her feet and took out her earphones. She turned on the music app and played Phenom's song in 'I Like' on loop.
Suddenly, a text message popped up.
It was from an unknown person with a hidden number.
[Did you cause such a big commotion at the Beijing Cultural Relic Exhibition Hall?]
Huo Yao touched the tip of her nose and quickly typed a reply: [I'm in school. I don't have time.]
Unknown person: [...]
Unknown Person: [I also guessed that it wouldn't be you. It doesn't seem like your style.]
Huo Yao raised her brow. Her interest was piqued. She replied: [Oh. What's my style?]
Unknown Person: [Passing through a field of flowers, not a single leaf touched me.]
Huo Yao: [Who taught you Chinese?]
Unknown person: [?]
Huo Yao: [Study more when you have nothing better to do.]
Unknown Person: [Trash. Primary school student.]
Huo Yao: [Daddy will teach you a lesson one day.]
Unknown Person: [Tsk.]
Huo Yao pursed her lips and could not be bothered to reply. She put her phone in her pocket, pulled the hoodie over her head, and closed her eyes to rest.

The plane landed punctually at 9: 30 pm. Huo Yao pulled her suitcase and turned on her phone as she walked out.
There were a few missed calls and many WeChat messages.
