“I am a new student that Professor Gu has just accepted into his class. I have less experience compared to other students, and I certainly have to learn more,” Tan Mo said humbly.
“Professor Gu always said that my journey is still long. He always pushed me to learn more.”
Everyone from Beijing University: “..”
Professor Gu: “...”
Did we misunderstand Tan Mo?
This girl is actually very good at acting like a wolf in sheep's clothing?
However, with this comment, Professor Gu really found it hard not to yell at Tan Mo.
‘Acting is good!’
‘Tan my little Mo, play to your best!’
Wang Yuemu and the rest of the team continued to stare at Tan Mo. They don't believe what they hear.
If they didn't know Tan Mo's true abilities, they would really fall in love with what he said.
Right before their eyes, Tan Mo had put a gentle and docile smile on his face. He spoke so unhurriedly and so softly. However, at the same time, he had spoken such deceptive words to Professor Liu.
How dare he!
He had lied directly to Professor Liu's face, right in the middle of his yard.
Wang Yuemu and the team began to have existential doubts.
Is this the Tan Mo we know?
Pu Xinyan immediately pulled out her phone. Since everyone's attention was focused on Tan Mo, he took advantage of this to ask in their group chat, “Senior Ying, did you mislead Tan Mo?”
Ying Siyuan replied, “Omong is empty! Why did I mislead Tan Mo?”
Guan Ruyue replied, Our little “Tan Mo is so adorable. Why was he acting like a wolf dressed in sheep's clothing? Some people in our team may have affected him badly.”
Some people refer to the boys on the team.
They must have misled him while the others paid no attention.
All boys: “...”
Such an accusation is too unfair to bear.
Professor Liu is not a fool. However, Tan Mo's expression was very deceiving. Moreover, he looked very young.
So Professor Liu believed him. Tan Mo is here to study.
Moreover, Tan Mo's reputation had yet to spread widely.
Wang Yuemu and Ying Siyuan were currently the most famous members of the team.
“It's true. This is definitely a good learning opportunity.” Professor Liu chuckled.
“Professor Gu must really like you, because he gave you a place on the team just so you could learn.”
Each competing team has a limit of ten members.
Beijing University has sent a total of ten people. There are no substitute players.
Professor Liu has been thinking hard about the situation, and he has concluded that there are two possibilities. First, Beijing University lacks talented students to compete. Second, they are very confident with their members and do not need a replacement.
However, judging from the fact that young students like Tan Mo took the place, Professor Liu felt quite confident that previous cuts were more likely to occur.
He's not trying to be arrogant. Tsinghua University had won so many times that she naturally became very confident.
Beijing University usually sends the same person every year.
However, there were some new faces this time.
Wang Yuemu and Ying Siyuan were the only students who had competed in the past.
However, Professor Liu had a good understanding of their typical performance.
The rest of the team is younger. Compared to Yuemu and Siyuan, they were clearly weaker candidates.
This year, victory is near.
Professor Liu is in a very relaxed mood. He had always been a pretty talkative person and was quite willing to continue talking to Tan Mo, someone who was obviously sent to fill out the numbers.
Professor Liu sighed to himself. Has the Chinese Department at Beijing University ever slumped so low before?
They had to give up a place for new students to fill the slot.
Unexpectedly, Tan Mo actually nodded his head. “It's true. Professor Gu says the same thing.”
Professor Liu: “...”
Professor Gu said the same thing?
Was he referring to this as a good opportunity to study or was he referring to Professor Gu who viewed him well?
Professor Liu glanced at him doubtfully. He doesn't seem to be a thick-skinned person. He was probably referring to the previous point, right?
Everyone from Beijing University: “..”
Professor Liu's IQ didn't go down because what Tan Mo did went through it, right?
“Hee, hee, hee.” Professor Liu laughed dryly. “Professor Gu is right.”
Everyone at Beijing University: “..”
His IQ is down.
“Since you are already here, you should not waste this place.” Professor Liu smiled.
“Because you are here, you must participate in the competition, even if it means just feeling the competitive atmosphere we enjoy in this competition.”
Professor Liu then decided to give some advice to Professor Gu. “Because you've given this kid a place in the team, you should let him train. Otherwise, it will be a waste if you do not use your slots. Defeat is not embarrassing. This is not the first time you have lost. Training your students should remain the main focus, right?”
This time, Professor Gu did not appear to be angry. He even chuckles, “Hee, hee, hee.”
‘This child you are talking about is our killing machine!’
‘But now you voluntarily requested that we let Tan Mo compete.’
“I share the same sentiment.” Professor Gu took advantage of his opportunity to agree.
“It's true he's come this far. No matter what the outcome of the competition is. It is important for him to experience the process. At the same time, I can test the results of my teaching ability.”
Everyone from Beijing University: “..”
Professor Gu, you have also lost your way.
Originally, he would react like a hedgehog every time he saw Professor Liu. They always argue.
He would never give way to Professor Liu in this way.
However, this time around, he was intentionally weak in front of his opponent.
Everyone could not help but glance at Tan Mo.
This change of Professor Gu only happened after Tan Mo pretended to be a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Is this the catalyst that misled Professor Gu?
Ying Siyuan quickly typed in their WeChat discussion, “Did you see that? Did you see that? It was not us who misled Tan Mo. See, even Professor Gu has been influenced by Tan Mo.”
Pu Xinyan replied, “Did you say that it was all wrong Tan Mo?”
As Pu Xinyan sent this, all the girls in the team except Tan Mo stared at Ying Siyuan.
Ying Siyuan: “..”
All the girls said to themselves, “Did you not know that Tan Mo is our lucky star?”
🍀
The group walked towards the competition location.
It is one of the indoor stadiums at Tsinghua University.
“Site has been fully prepared for the competition,” explained Mr. Liao. “All buzzers we have tested repeatedly. We guarantee there are no problems with them.”
No one's worried about this.
Tsinghua University has a reputation to defend. They will not cheat just to ensure their own winnings.
Although Ying Siyuan and Wang Yuemu had previously participated in two competitions in the past, the event had not been hosted by Tsinghua University.
Therefore, this was also the first time they had seen the location of the competition at Tsinghua University.
Everyone looks around him.
They saw the five words — Sixth Ancient Text Competition — displayed boldly on the big screen.
Immediately, the screen changed and started playing some clips from the previous competition without any audio.
Naturally, most screen time is focused on exemplary performance from Tsinghua team members.
Everyone from Beijing University: “..”
Is Tsinghua University always showing off like that?
Hee, hee, hee!
This year, the stage will belong to Beijing University.
When the time comes, it will be very embarrassing for you!
Six podiums are set in the middle of the stage.
Everyone knew that this was for the representatives of the six competing schools.
“Everyone, follow me. This is the room we have set aside for you to rest.” Liao led the group out of the competition location.
They reached the room where they should have rested.
