Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The results of the fifteen teams appeared at once.
Nobody in the competition could surpass Gu Mang’s incredible feat of getting perfect scores on both the written test and the Q&A portion. Since Gu Mang was not up for the second match, all the teams focused on their own scores this time.
The commotion during this round was far quieter than during the earlier match, hardly anything in comparison. However, on Capital University’s side…
“W-what’s going on…” Shock was written all over Chen Xu’s face as he stared at the scoreboard.
Even Yang Tianming and Professor Yang were astounded.
Shen Qianzi, who was sitting confidently in her seat, now looked ashen when she saw the scores. She sat up and stared unblinkingly at the big screen.
Capital University and M University were almost neck and neck. However…
[Capital University: 89.72]
[M University: 92.63]
We lost the second match? Qiao You stared at the scores in disbelief before turning her gaze to Shen Qianzi.
Everyone else slowly looked over as well. Their gazes were like needles stabbing Shen Qianzi. Everything she said confidently earlier were invisible slaps in her face.
Nobody said anything for a moment.
Eventually, Yang Tianming let out an inaudible sigh before saying gently to the Shen Qianzi and the two males students, “It’s fine. You win and lose in competitions.”
Shen Qianzi’s grip on the chair’s armrests tightened as her gaze trembled.
Behind her, Gu Si put one leg across his knee and shook his foot. “Capability is what counts here. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about even if one loses. No need to feel ashamed, Big Sister.”
Shen Qianzi had said those exact words earlier, but now that they were coming from Gu Si’s mouth, they were akin to knives stabbing her chest.
Hearing that, Shen Qianzi whipped her head around fiercely to shoot a glare at Gu Si. However, the little boy only smiled and lifted his chin at her. “Don’t worry, Big Sister. My sis will carry you to victory!”
Shen Qianzi’s expression became even uglier.
Gu Mang’s scores had given Yang Tianming a lot of reassurance. He looked at Shen Qianzi and said, “Alright, there’s no need to dwell on it since it’s over. If you think you’re not ready for the next match, we can send Gu Mang up.”
That would be as good as telling everyone that I, Shen Qianzi, am afraid to lose. Shen Qianzi pursed her lips and forced herself to calm down. “I’m fine, professor. I’ll go up next.”
Yang Tianming studied her expression for a couple of seconds before nodding. “Okay. If you are feeling up to it.”
“I got it.” Shen Qianzi then took a deep breath. I’ll definitely win the next match.
Soon, the MC announced the start of the third match.
The third match was an oral test. All participating team members had to answer the questions onscreen in English within 15 seconds.
At the end of the match, the organizers would give them a booklet containing the answers and explanations from the judges, as well as their unique perspectives on medicine. The booklet was invaluable to the contestants. The longer one survived in the competition, the more knowledge one could gain.
The participating members from each team went up and down the stage.
Capital University and M University were the fifth to go up.
Shen Qianzi placed her bag on her seat before standing to go up to the stage. She frowned when she saw Ming Ni walking to the stage as well. Ming Ni is M University’s most capable team member. Why did they send her up in the third match instead of the last? Do they think that she had no chance of winning against Gu Mang and chose to send her out early as my opponent instead?
Shen Qianzi squeezed her fingers, feeling thoroughly humiliated.. Fine, let’s see who ends up as the loser.
