Chapter 191: Someone Better Than Him Li Bao laughed coldly and said in a weird tone, “Alright then, I’ll just wait for the results this afternoon.”
There were a total of more than 400 papers. It was not much, and it was still a competition question. There would be quite a number of students who would be left blank. Ten teachers would grade the papers, and it would basically take two hours to correct them. From there, the top 20 would be selected to participate in the final round of the competition.
Luo Xuewen went to sit somewhere else. He did not want to stay with Li Bao anymore.
As for what Li Bao said, he was not worried.
Once the results were out, he would naturally be slapped in the face.
There were still ten minutes before the end of the exam. Su Yixiu had also submitted his papers in advance.
The reporters saw Su Yixiu. In every competition that Su Yixiu won, as long as he participated, the first place would be his.
These two reporters recognized Su Yixiu and they immediately went forward to ask.
“Student Su, may I ask if you have the confidence to win the first place this time? Previously, there was a female student who left the stage early. She even said that the first place was hers. What do you think?”
Normally, Su Yixiu would not bother with these reporters. However, this time, he said something rare. “I’m second. There’s someone better than me.”
The reporters’ curiosity was piqued.
There was still someone who was better than Su Yixiu?
They quickly asked, “Who is the person you’re talking about? Is it convenient for you to tell us?”
Su Yixiu only said, “The results will be out in the afternoon. You’ll naturally know.”
A figure flashed through the reporters’ minds. The astonishingly beautiful young lady just now said that she could get first place. Her eyes were filled with confidence.
However, they quickly suppressed their thoughts.
After completing the test paper in forty minutes, she could still get first place? Was that possible?
They still wanted to ask Su Yixiu, but unfortunately, Su Yixiu had already left. He came to Luo Xuewen’s side.
Luo Xuewen did not ask how Su Yixiu did on the test. He was also very confident in Su Yixiu.
“Let’s go. We’ll have lunch first, then we’ll go back to rest.”
Li Bao did not ridicule Su Yixiu for submitting the exam ahead of time. Su Yixiu was capable, and even he could not say anything against Su Yixiu.
After the exam ended, He Manyun came out with the other students.
He Manyun had the best math results in G City, and Li Bao had high hopes for her.
Seeing her come out, Li Bao quickly went up to her.
“He Manyun, how did you do?”
He Manyun pinched the corner of her shirt and forced a smile. “Not bad.”
Li Bao immediately smiled and said, “Good, good, good. Not bad, Manyun. With your ability, you will definitely be able to enter the last round of the competition. If you can’t get first place, there will be no problem for you to get second place.”
Li Bao did not see the panic in He Manyun’s eyes.
The questions this time were very difficult. He Manyun had to work very hard. She did not have time to finish the last question. Even the second to last question still had a few steps that she had not written down.
If she had not been absent-minded for a few minutes in the examination venue, she would have been able to finish the second to last question.
After finishing the morning’s competition, there was still tomorrow’s rush-answer segment left.
In the afternoon, it was time to wait for the results to be released.
Su Yixiu and Qin Sheng were not too concerned about the results.
After Luo Xuewen asked around, he could only go alone.
Actually, the results were notified by text message, but those teachers still hoped to see who would enter the next round and what the results would be, so they went to the school early to wait.
Many students also went to the school to see the results.
The teacher using the computer was still typing and organizing the results, while Qin Sheng’s test paper had already been passed around among the marking teachers.
