Tan Mo relied on his extremely long past, as well as his experience under the supervision of his Master.
Regardless of how proficient one was in history, no one could defeat personally experiencing past events.
As the ancient language developed, Tan Mo had traveled through the changing times and personally witnessed it all.
However, as a little snow elf, she could not move anywhere. So, even though he knew a little about what was happening, he did not understand everything.
He had heard many things from his master. But there are other events and happenings that his master never mentioned.
At this moment, Tan Mo produced incredible results. He knew that this was mostly due to his photographic memory.
However, there were still holes in his knowledge of literature that he had never read, as well as parts of history that he had not personally experienced.
So Tan Mo really had a lot to learn from Professor Gu. He has learned a lot from her.
He progressed rapidly under the supervision of Professor Gu.
Until the day of the competition…
🍀
That morning, Tan Mo had met Wang Yuemu and the rest of the team. Together, they set off for Tsinghua University.
A male teacher from the Chinese Language Department led the group. He was wearing glasses as well as a plain white shirt.
This time, Professor Gu also came with them.
The group boarded a bus that had been arranged by the school and left for Tsinghua University.
Tan Mo was the only one who had yet to meet the teacher assigned to them.
The teacher holds the microphone and stands in front of the trainer. She introduced herself to Tan Mo, “Let me introduce myself. I'm Teacher Lao. I graduated from Beijing University and stayed here after graduation. During my student years, I was lucky enough to have Professor Gu as my teacher. So we are all fellow mentees. Everyone is familiar with me. Since you never attended classes in the Chinese Language Department, you probably don't know me."
“All the other students already know me well. I'm a pretty cold person, so please calm down while you're with me, Tan Mo. Don't hesitate to tell me anything."
“In addition to Yuemu and Siyuan, this is the first time everyone has participated in this competition.”
To ensure their comfort, the school has arranged a 30-seat bus for them.
Everyone has two chairs. It gave them a chance to spread out and there was a considerable distance between their seats.
Fortunately, the vehicle was equipped with a PA system. This way, Master Lao did not need to force his voice to speak for everyone to hear.
“Do not stress too much.” Teacher Lao chuckled.
“Switch and do as you normally would. Don't put yourself under too much pressure. It'll cause you to mess up."
“Alright, I won't say much. They will announce special rules after the six groups gather at Tsinghua University. Everyone should be relaxed for now.” After he said all this, he sat down.
Unexpectedly, Professor Gu raised the microphone a moment later. “But don't be too relaxed. Be the champion of this competition!”
Master Lao: “...”
Each person: “...”
From the looks of it, Professor Liu's provoking effect was quite strong.
No one dared to breathe too hard at that moment. Everyone is completely silent.
Eventually, they reached Tsinghua University.
Teacher Lao got off the bus first. He stood by the door and prepared to help Professor Gu leave.
However, Professor Gu seems to be the picture of health. His steps were light, comparable to the steps of a young man. He did not give Master Lao the chance to help him.
After which, Ying Siyuan and the other team members also got off the bus, one by one.
Everyone organized themselves into a regular line-up. Since Tan Mo was the youngest, his seniors protected him by pinning him in the middle of the row.
This is how the team organizes themselves into a formation.
Before Professor Gu could answer, he heard a warm laugh. “Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Old Gu, I had expected that you would make a personal visit this year. Therefore, I specifically came to see you. I can't believe that my guess is right. I did not make this visit in vain.”
Professor Gu could not bear Professor Liu's arrogant expression from his mortal enemy. He grinned and said, “It's been years since I last visited. This time, most of our students competed for the first time. Therefore, I decided to follow and watch them.”
“Oh, you came for the sake of these students?” Professor Liu obviously did not believe Professor Gu's statement.
It's all the reason.
Professor Gu had been provoked by him. Therefore, he decided to lead the team personally.
“Is this really all your students?” Professor Liu asked.
“Listen to yourself. Poor understanding like that.” Professor Gu flattened his lips. “I'm a Chin-professor. If they are not my students, then who are they?”
Professor Gu almost said the words of the Chinese Department.
Just when those words came out of his mouth, he suddenly recalled that Tan Mo was not a student from the Chinese Department
If others knew about this, it would be very embarrassing for him.
He quickly changed his words.
“I can't believe you're a professor at Tsinghua.” Professor Gu took the opportunity to trample on Professor Liu.
“At least there are no strangers here. Otherwise, it would be a big joke. A poor understanding of a Tsinghua professor? Is this the standard of Tsinghua University?”
On the side, Master Liao was sweating a bucket.
Every time these two individuals met, they were at odds.
Professor Gu has even taken the opportunity to do a jab at Tsinghua University. He couldn't just see it happen.
He hurriedly tidied everything up. “Professor Gu, Professor Liu. How about we talk on the way there?”
“Come go.” Professor Gu nodded.
As Professor Liu walked, he said, “Old Gu, we are all literary scholars. However, you have been affected by my cute choice of words. You know what I mean. Is this student your mentee?"
“What? Why are you afraid to admit it? Are you worried that you will be humiliated if they lose?” Professor Liu raised his eyebrows and deliberately provoked Professor Gu.
“You don't have to try hard to provoke me.” Professor Gu could see what he was doing immediately.
“Am I going to fall in love with your tricks? These kids are all good students. They are mentees that I am proud of. I'd be happy to introduce them to you. Don't make them look like incompetent and embarrassing students."
“You've been good for years. Why is your heart so evil?” Professor Gu glanced at him a glance.
Professor Liu: “...”
What kind of evil heart is he talking about?
Old Gu had made false accusations and tarnished his reputation. He is a man with a bad heart.
Professor Liu glanced at him. Tan Mo stood in the middle of the formation and was quite prominent.
“Why is there a child here?” From his glance, he looked like a student who had just started college.
“What child are you talking to. He is my student.” In his heart, Professor Gu wondered if Professor Liu was underestimating Tan Mo.
HM! Just hang.
“Halo, Professor Liu, my name is Tan Mo.” Tan Mo showed the most innocent smile he could manage and replied obediently, “I am indeed the youngest on the team. I followed my senior here to broaden my horizons.”
“Are you competing?” Professor Liu knew that Tan Mo was a submissive child. Who doesn't love a submissive and obedient child?
Therefore, his heart melted. He asked this question with a smile.
“Oh, I'm not sure if I will be sent to the competition place,” said Tan Mo. “Professor Gu says that I am here primarily to study. I will learn from my seniors as well as from the seniors of Tsinghua University.”
