Since it was not time yet, the entrances to the building were not open yet.
The teacher in charge gathered everyone together and once again explained the rules of the competition, as well as all the things to take note of. His expression was solemn, much more solemn than it had been during the national competition.
The International Competition was about getting into the international rankings, which concerned the honor of the country the students belonged to. It was not just a competition of ability but also a demonstration of their country's glory. In an instant, everyone's passion was ignited by the teacher.
Huo Yao looked at the Olympic Games logo on the top floor of the building again and instinctively smiled. If one were to look closely, one would be able to see the strong fighting spirit in her eyes.
Not to mention anything else, she had seen the most difficult-to-treat diseases. Now it was time to accept the results.
At 9: 00 am sharp in Country M. Over a hundred contestants from all over the world entered the venue in an orderly manner.
There were a total of ten venues. Huo Yao, Yi Lianfan, and the other three contestants were also in the same venue. It was a little strange that they were all assigned to the same venue.
Huo Yao sat in her seat and twirled her pen gently. Logically speaking, they should not have been assigned to the same venue.
But soon, she heard a conversation between two students from other countries, and she finally found an explanation for her puzzlement.
The reason why they were assigned to the same venue was based on the country's ranking in the previous competition. The lower the ranking, the lower the ranking, and the lower the ranking, they would be assigned to the last two venues.
In other words, the countries that the students in the ninth and tenth exam hall came from were not ranked in the previous exam.
Since they did not rank in the previous competition, it did not matter if they were from the same country. After all, they would not rank in the national competition.
Huo Yao rested her chin on her hand. Fine. Who was she looking down on?
The fighting spirit in her eyes burned even more fiercely.
Not long after, the golden-haired, blue-eyed invigilator walked in with the test papers. He had a cold look on his face, as if all the students in the examination hall were beneath his notice.
Huo Yao glanced through the questions after she received the papers. Sure enough, the International Competition questions were twice as difficult as the ones in the national competition.
Huo Yao exhaled deeply before she picked up her pen and started writing.
Coincidentally, she liked doing difficult questions. It was just like treating a patient. It would be boring if it was not difficult.
It was still the same three-hour exam, with a total score of 200 points and a passing line of 160 points. It could be said that the threshold was very high.
In the previous competition, there were also close to 300 participants, but in the end, less than 80 people advanced to the finals, let alone the final rankings.
Three hours passed quickly. Almost as soon as the bell rang, the invigilator asked everyone to put down their pens and leave the examination hall.
It was as if he couldn't wait a second longer.
Huo Yao walked out of the examination hall and looked up at the sign. She followed it to the washroom before heading downstairs.
At this moment, she was the only one left in the team.
Huo Yao walked over unhurriedly. She could not help touching her nose when she saw the dejected looks on everyone's faces. Even Yi Lianfan looked gloomy. Did they fail the exam?
"Huo Yao, do you... think you have a chance of making it to the finals?" asked the teacher in a hoarse voice. He was in low spirits.
He had already asked the other students about their exam results. Although the results were not out yet, apart from Yi Lianfan, there was basically no hope for the others.
Hence, he did not ask Huo Yao about her score. Instead, he asked her if she had any hopes of making it to the finals.
