Chapter 155: Maybe Tan Mo Knows

“Professor Gu has already said that we will all leave. So Tan Mo will definitely come.” Ying Siyuan stroked her chin.

“This competition consists of six competing schools, and, each round, one student is nominated to participate. They are competing to advance to the final round. However, all the details are not important. When the time comes, you will understand.”

Tan Mo nodded. To be honest, none of them seemed to care too much about this.

Research is more important for all of them.

For the foreseeable future, Tan Mo's days will follow a new routine. He had to go to the library to look for resources and come to the research room to do some research. He also had to attend his Finance lecture and memorize “Literature of the Warring States”, while trying out the questions posed by Professor Tang.

Solid schedule.

Even though he had a photographic memory, he still needed time to read.

He also needs time to do research.

So, other than her bedtime and meal time, she no longer had any free time.

His schedule was so dense that he really could not spend time on anything else.

Tan Mo had finally experienced what Tan Jinqi had warned him before. Once school starts, she will be so busy that she has no time to return home.

Tan Jinqi was right.

However, regardless of how busy he was, Tan Mo was determined to return home on the weekend.

Otherwise, his parents and brother would miss him a lot.

🌹🍀🌹

One day for a week, Tan Mo and the rest of the team were inside the research room.

Suddenly, Professor Gu burst in.

Each person: “....”.

Recently, Professor Gu was quite grumpy. He becomes more irritable.

“I just had a discussion with the Headmaster, Master Mu. I told him that all of you will represent us in the competition. However, according to him, it would be unfair for other students if we missed the selection process. They will assume that you are pulling the rope behind the scenes.” Professor Gu gritted his teeth as he explained the situation.

School Head Mu pointed out specifically that Tan Mo was a student from the Ministry of Finance. Isn't it strange that he participated in the Chinese Ministry competition.

If other students knew about it, they would have a strong opinion about it.

During the discussion, Professor Gu denounced. He has stated that even if the selection process takes place, other students will not have the opportunity to be selected.

Do they know the level of their students?

Have they ever watched a competition before?

Even if the freshmen were not aware of it, how could the older students not know this?

The competition touches on a very challenging topic. Can't they be a little more self-conscious?

However, School Head Mu insisted that, although it was important to ensure that the chosen students were capable, it was also important that the school maintain its reputation for fairness and preventing strife.

Professor Gu could not think of that conversation anymore. Every time he thought about it, his teeth would start to hurt.

“So I've registered everyone,” Professor Gu said with a huff.

“Tan Mo, you are also included. When the time comes, I want all of you to participate in the school's internal selection process. Get a place on the team!”

“Understood!”

Everyone hastily agreed. No one dared to oppose him when he was in this kind of mood.

Even Tan Mo finally understood why Professor Gu was so adamant on his team to participate rather than some random student. It was because they were his personal mentee and they represented him. If they won, Professor Gu would also be able to maintain his reputation.

Tan Mo was speechless. Unfortunately, such a cultured and refined grandfather had been provoked by Professor Liu to this degree.

“You've all been chosen to be part of my team. I believe that all of you are the best students in the Chinese Language Department.” As Professor Gu said this, he suddenly saw Tan Mo's bright eyes.

Professor Guo sluggishly added, “Of course, I also recruited someone with incredible potential in Mandarin from the Ministry of Finance.”

Each person: “...”

What Professor Gu had just said was very confusing.

“You all must succeed in the internal selection process of the school.”

Professor Gu continued in earnest, “You are all my students. If anyone doesn't make it through, it'll be very embarrassing for me.”

Professor Gu has issued a decree. They have to go through a selection process.

A vibration ran through their spine. Everyone quickly stood up straight and announced, “Ya. We'll all pass the selection process.”

Professor Gu finally nodded in satisfaction. Then he walked out of the room.

Professor Gu was the first to receive the news.

Tan Mo and team were the first to hear about this.

School Head Mu only told Professor Gu.

A detailed and concrete plan still needs to be made.

All the other departments only heard about this one week later when the news was announced to their respective classes.

Lecturer Hong revealed the news to the class supervisor, Lin Fuxi, and told him to spread the news throughout the class.

Although this was announced to the entire school population, the students from the Chinese Language Department were still key players.

A cursory announcement was made to other departments, but they didn't really expect anyone to sign up for the selection process.

However, since the school is attending an event, they have an obligation to notify all students.

Since we have informed you about this upcoming event, it is up to you whether you actually decide to participate.

It's okay if you don't want to participate. However, you can't blame us for not telling you.

Lin Fuxi stood on stage and announced, “This time, to select a member to represent our school in the Ancient Text Competition, the school will be hosting a selection test. To be honest, the process will be very simple. Candidate applicants simply head to the multimedia room where everyone will answer questions online simultaneously."

“The Ancient Text competition will consist of buzzer questions, so time is the key. This will be a computer-based assessment, and you will get ten seconds to answer each question. The computer will automatically mark your answer, and after you've finished answering, everyone will get the score immediately."

Lin Fuxi continued, “You will also be able to see which question is wrong."

“In addition, the ranking list will appear on the web page. The rating will be updated directly and everything will be publicly available.” Lin Fuxi paused for a moment before continuing, “You don't have to worry about the person manipulating the chart.”

Everyone present was not sure if they saw it wrong.

Because they sensed that when he mentioned manipulating the charts, Lin Fuxi actually glanced at Tan Mo.

Each person: “....”.

They can't possibly see that, can they?

Students exchanged looks.

Does everyone see the same thing?

They may not have seen it wrong.

Lin Fuxi's…

No problem, right?

Why was he glancing at Tan Mo when he talked about this?

Tan Mo didn't do anything clever.

Everyone was filled with unspoken criticism.

“Everyone will also be able to see the final rating,” continued Lin Fuxi.

“If anyone wants to come, find me. You can sign up immediately. Registration will continue until this Wednesday, so there is not much time for everyone to consider it.”

As Lin Fuxi said this, a discussion immediately filled the room.

“Are you going to participate?”

“Class monitor, do we have to pay the registration fee?” someone asked.

“Not needed.” Said Lin Fuxi. “We choose candidates to represent us and compete for the success of our school. You do not have to pay the registration fee. What's more, there will likely be prizes for those who win. As to what the prize is, I'm not too sure myself. I just heard that there is a gift.”

“It doesn't matter what the prize is. I just want to have fun.”

“But even if we only participate for fun, the chosen ones will eventually definitely come from the Chinese Department. After all, they are people who specialize in this subject.”

“Do anyone know what was tested in the previous round of the Ancient Text Competition?”

The moment someone asked this question, everyone shook their heads, completely stunned.

A glint appeared in Lin Fuxi's eyes. “Maybe Tan Mo will know? Didn't Professor Gu look at Tan Mo well?”
