"But don't stress too much. Liao Yanran regained a smile on her face and encouraged, "Now that you have made history, the rematch is actually mainly a demonstration of personal ability, you just need to give full play to your ability." As for whether you can win the group award, just do your best. ”

Next, Liao Yanran introduced the rules of the semi-finals to them, the difference between the semi-finals and the preliminary round is that there are no multiple-choice fill-in-the-blank questions, all of them are big questions.

Five questions, with a total score of 100, and the time was extended to four and a half hours.

Compared with the preliminary round, the semi-final is much more difficult, not only for the test of knowledge and psychology, but also for physical fitness, after all, four and a half hours is not so easy to endure.

In previous competitions, there were classmates who fainted because of too long time and too much mental exertion.

"So, before the exam tomorrow, you have to eat well, but you can't drink too much water, otherwise it will be very troublesome to go to the toilet. ”

Xu Tianyu raised his hand and said, "Teacher Liao, what if you are hungry by then?"

"Bear with me when you're hungry!" Liao Yanran said angrily.

Several people let out a laugh, and the originally serious atmosphere suddenly became a lot more lively. How could Xu Tianyu not know that he had to endure it when he was hungry, he just saw that the atmosphere was too dull, and told a joke to liven up the atmosphere.

Now that they are in the semi-finals, what they need is no longer pressure, but a happy mood, striving to perform at the highest level and add a strong touch to their life resume.

After an afternoon of revision, and then a good rest for the evening, at ten o'clock in the morning the next day, the bell for the exam officially rang.

This time, because there were not so many students, the examination room was reassigned, and Xu Tianyu was assigned to the No. 1 examination room.

He guessed that it was likely that the assignment of the examination room was based on the results, because in this No. 1 examination room, he saw Jian Fei'er and Su Yaoyang, and the other classmates also looked very good.

This time, Jian Fei'er was not late, she came early, and sat in her seat upright, because she was far away from Xu Tianyu, Jian Fei'er just smiled politely at him.

Xu Tianyu smiled back, and then saw Su Yaoyang looking at him with a fierce look in his eyes, and a cruel expression was slightly distorted on his handsome face. Xu Tianyu pursed his lips, he was really a pervert.

There are fewer candidates, but there are more invigilators, as many as six. There is a teacher standing in the four corners of the classroom, and two are swimming in the examination room, and there is no one in this formation, and the candidates with poor psychological quality are generally not allowed to faint if they persist for four and a half hours under such close watch.

However, Xu Tianyu was calm, turning a blind eye to the eyes of those teachers who fell on him, and when the bell rang and the test papers were issued, he hurriedly began to review the questions.

I read through it first, and found that the five major questions are very difficult, very difficult, not only the questions are difficult to do, but even there are many traps on the question.

Xu Tianyu sighed with emotion, it is really a real competition, enough for him to have a brainstorm. This is the question that a top student should do!

Twisting his neck and moving his fingers, Xu Tianyu picked up the ballpoint pen on the table, put the scratch paper under his arm, and began to tackle the first big question.

The knowledge in his mind is extracted from the deepest part like flowing water, and finally converges into a lake of knowledge, Xu Tianyu is like a fishing boat on it, what knowledge is wanted, he throws the fishing line into the water, and then the knowledge is accurately pulled out of the lake.

The idea is like getting on a high-speed train, moving forward, invincible, and overcoming difficulties one by one.

It took three hours for Xu Tianyu to finally finish all five questions, and the long-term mental exercise made his mind a little dizzy, if it wasn't for the super virus he absorbed when he was in the assault class, he wouldn't have been able to do it so smoothly, at least he wouldn't have completed such a difficult problem so quickly.

Xu Tianyu raised his eyes and glanced around the classroom, and found that all the candidates were still struggling, so he was the first to finish it, even Su Yaoyang was still struggling to write.

He suddenly started to think crookedly, should he hand in the paper early and disturb the other candidates? If he handed in the paper after only three hours, it would be quite shocking, right?

After hesitating for a while, he still gave up this seemingly feasible idea, because the people who can do it in this No. 1 examination room are undoubtedly people with very strong psychological quality, and his trick may not work.

It's better to sit honestly for four and a half hours and check it a few more times. After all, when you reach a certain height, any small means are just auxiliary, and in the end it is your own ability that can be relied on.

With a sigh, Xu Tianyu still honestly picked up the test paper and checked it. Although he knew that everything was done right, there was nothing to check.

What he didn't notice was that one of the six invigilators always had his eyes on him intentionally or unintentionally, and his steps slowly approached him, as if to prevent him from hurting people.

This invigilator is the one who invigilated Xu Tianyu during the pre-examination, and he was wary of Xu Tianyu handing in the papers in advance, causing interference to other candidates.

When Xu Tianyu just had that thought just now, his body was already in arrears, and he was nervous, but now he was relieved to see that Xu Tianyu seemed to have given up.

Xu Tianyu didn't know that he was being taken care of, and now he had checked the last question. Completely correct, even the writing is meticulous, without flaws, and a hundred points are decided.

Suddenly, his gaze froze, focused on the last big question. Just now, he casually turned his mind and actually thought of a second solution, which could also get the correct answer.

But there is a problem, that is, the knowledge used in this method of solving problems is at the university level, and he thought about it carefully, and it seems that the exam rules do not say that you can't use university knowledge.

After a moment of hesitation, Xu Tianyu made a decision, he was idle anyway, and there were still many blanks on the test paper, which was enough to write another answer.

Just do it, Xu Tianyu first wrote out the answer process on the scratch paper, and only after confirming that it was correct did he copy it on the test paper. The handwriting is neat and there is no smearing, which proves that the process is neatly arranged and even has a special beauty.

In his previous life, when he was reading a certain novel, he saw the author say that mathematical formulas are the most beautiful picture scroll in the world, and at that time he was quite unimpressed.

But now he understands the author's meaning a little, in the eyes of those who don't understand, mathematics is indeed just a pile of symbols, but in the eyes of those who understand mathematics, those symbols are the most beautiful language in the world.

After solving the problem in the second way, another hour passed by him, and only half an hour was left. Many students have also completed the exam papers and are checking them carefully.

Xu Tianyu noticed that no one had submitted the papers in advance so far, and it seemed that everyone had a very tacit understanding, perhaps disdainful of playing any small tricks.

If Xu Tianyu had handed in the paper in advance just now, he would have fallen behind, and he would have no energy.

Four and a half hours later, the bell rang for the end of the exam, and the six invigilators stepped forward together, no matter whether you finished it or not, they snatched the test paper from the student's hand and quickly sealed it into a waterproof brown paper bag.

The whole process was like facing a great enemy, as if they were holding a pile of cash bills instead of exam papers.

Xu Tianyu stretched, stood up and walked outside the classroom, the exam was completed, and he did his best, as for what height Lindong City No. 1 Middle School can reach, it is not something he can control.

Just as he was about to walk out of the classroom, a sweet female voice suddenly stopped him from behind.

"Xu ...... Xu Tianyu, wait a minute. ”

Hearing this voice, a smile rose at the corner of Xu Tianyu's mouth, he could already hear it, it was that lovely Lori Jian Fei'er.

Smiled and turned around, looking at the little Lori who rushed in front of him with an inquiring gaze.

Jian Fei'er didn't expect him to turn around so quickly, and the one under his feet didn't stop, and he hit him straight away.

Xu Tianyu hurriedly stretched out his hand to catch her, but the two of them still hugged each other, and Xiao Loli's face immediately turned red, and she quickly broke free from Xu Tianyu's embrace.

There was a sound of swallowing saliva around her, which made Xiao Lori's face even redder, and Xu Tianyu quickly apologized, although it was not his fault.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, is there anything you can do?"

Hearing his question, Jian Fei'er came back to her senses, her face was still a little shy, and she said, "Xu...... Xu Tianyu, my father wants to invite you to dinner. ”

"Ah, your father?" Xu Tianyu was a little surprised and at a loss, what kind of situation was this, why did little Lori's father invite him to dinner?

According to the memories of his previous life, little Lori's father should be a university professor, but now he doesn't know any university professors.

"Yes, my dad knew about the last time you helped me, and then saw that you had good grades this time, so he wanted to talk to you. Let me tell you, my dad is a professor at Kyoto University, and he's very powerful. Little Lori said proudly as if she was asking for credit, obviously Xu Tianyu's results were what she told her father.

Xu Tianyu was a little flattered, but he didn't expect Jian Fei'er's father to be a professor at Beijing University, in that era when college students had very high gold content, a university professor was simply a fairy-like figure, but it was not an era when there were as many professors as dogs in later generations.

"This ...... I'm really useless. Xu Tianyu said modestly, but this was really what he said in his heart.
