Text Chapter 629: Competition
"It's okay, there are many, many firsts in life, you can't feel sad because you missed a certain one, there will be many opportunities in the future." Song Ruyi explained earnestly.
Xiao Baozi slowly calmed down after listening to Song Ruyi's words, and she said sullenly: "I will definitely not miss it again in the future, and I will seize every opportunity." ”
Song Ruyi smiled: "Okay, I still have to go to dinner, so I won't talk about it, you must play hard." ”
"Well, I will, Mom." Xiao Baozi nodded.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Baozi couldn't help but throw the phone directly on the bed to express his anger.
Although she also knew that what Song Ruyi said was very correct, she missed something she had been looking forward to for a long time, and it was still difficult to calm down when she thought about it.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Xiao Baozi said angrily, "Please come in."
Lu Fan pushed open the door and walked in, and asked as he walked: "What's wrong with you, it's like eating gunpowder, who made you angry again?" ”
"My sister!" Xiao Baozi replied angrily.
"Huh?" Lu Fan was a little puzzled after listening to her answer, "Isn't it that he hasn't been born yet, how can he provoke you?" ”
"When I was at home, I was waiting for her to move for the first time, and there was no movement, but as soon as I left, she moved, isn't that against me?" The more Xiao Baozi talked, the more angry he became.
Lu Fan couldn't hold back his laughter, and Xiao Baozi rolled his eyes at him.
"What are you laughing at?" Xiao Baozi threatened viciously.
However, in Lu Fan's eyes, she looked like a little rabbit that was provoked to show her teeth, and there was no deterrent at all, so she smiled even more happily.
"I guess after your sister is born, I should be able to listen to a lot of jokes, but it's not hers, it's yours." Lu Fan quipped.
"You're going to die!" Xiao Baozi was annoyed and pushed him, but because his strength was too small, it didn't affect him.
"Alright, let's get down to business." Lu Fan adjusted his expression and began to think of his true purpose for coming over this time, "The teacher said that he wanted to gather, and he wanted to talk about the precautions for the competition the day after tomorrow." ”
Xiao Baozi nodded, and walked out with Lu Fan.
There were only two of them who came out to participate in the competition, but there were three teachers who led the team, each responsible for different tasks, which shows how much importance the school attaches to this competition.
The three teachers repeatedly told the two of them to report in advance no matter what they did, not to act without authorization, and to find them as soon as possible if they had difficulties.
After Xiao Baozi and Lu Fan responded one by one, the five of them had a good meal directly in the hotel's restaurant.
After eating, Lu Fan told the teacher that he wanted to go out for a walk with Xiao Baozi.
After the two left alone and couldn't see the teacher, Xiao Baozi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and she sighed: "These teachers are too close, which makes me scared." ”
"Why are you so scared, they don't want to eat you." Lu Fan said.
Xiao Baozi said that he was afraid that he would do something wrong and provoke those teachers to be angry.
"Don't worry, I'll help you carry it when the time comes." Lu Fan promised.
"Hey, hey." Xiao Baozi smirked, "Lu Fan, I really didn't misunderstand you, you are really my good brother." ”
Lu Fan looked at the stupid appearance of the little bun, and could only shake his head helplessly.
The two walked slowly and leisurely around the hotel for a while, and then went back to their rooms before dark.
Because they were afraid that the fatigue of traveling on the road would affect their performance, they left three days in advance and left a day to rest and adjust their state.
On the day of the competition, everyone got up early, cleaned up, and rushed to the competition site together.
At this time, the hall was already crowded with players, teachers, and media organizations, and it was said that the international competition was very competitive, so it attracted a lot of attention.
Xiao Baozi is the youngest contestant, and she stands out from the crowd, so everyone looks at her.
However, Xiao Baozi didn't care about this, she behaved as usual, and the three teachers who led the team were worried that she would be nervous, but now it seems that there should be no major problems, and she is a lot more relieved.
The competition began quickly, and the staff of the organizer first checked in the contestants and then divided them into groups in order.
The format of this competition is one-on-one, the loser is eliminated directly, and the winner competes again until the final champion is produced.
Xiao Baozi and Lu Fan naturally wanted to separate, and Lu Fan was still a little worried about her before leaving, but Xiao Baozi said that he had no problem.
In the first round, Xiao Baozi met a player from the United Kingdom, who was five years older than Xiao Baozi and looked very arrogant.
After seeing the little bun, the man couldn't help but show a contemptuous smile, feeling that the game was already in his hands before it started.
Xiao Baozi has seen too many people who don't know what to do, she doesn't care about other people's eyes, anyway, in the end, she will use her strength to shut them up.
The way of the competition is to ask questions by the judges, and the two contestants will rush to answer, a total of 20 questions, one point will be added for correct answers, and one point will be deducted for wrong answers, and the one with the highest score will win.
The first round of the competition officially began, and Xiao Baozi did not give the other party a chance to answer the questions, all the questions were answered directly, and he won in less than ten minutes.
The contestant who despised her at first was dumbfounded, feeling like he was over before he even did it.
Xiao Baozi looked at the man's shocked expression and "snorted".
After watching the game, the eyes on Xiao Baozi became more and more, and everyone speculated about how strong Xiao Baozi's real strength was.
Lu Fan naturally also made the cut, and the two took advantage of the break to communicate.
"They're all too weak." Xiao Baozi said.
Lu Fan smiled, he naturally knew how powerful the little bun was, but in order to take care of the overall situation, he still told her: "Don't take it lightly, our goal this time is the champion, and we can't give it to others." ”
"Got it, I know." Xiao Baozi waved her hand, she had heard these words countless times, and she felt that her ears were calloused.
The remaining rounds were also very smooth, and the other players were not at the same level as Xiao Baozi, and she defeated her opponents all the way and directly advanced to the finals.
The situation on Lu Fan's side was similar, and he naturally entered the list of finals.
The teachers who led the team were very excited when they heard the news, and it was the first time in the school's history that two students had made it to the finals, which was naturally very happy.
There were three people in the finals, and in addition to the two of them, the other one was from the United States and was the winner of the previous competition.
There was an hour's break before the finals, and the organizers prepared a special room for each contestant, but Xiao Baozi and Lu Fan stayed directly together.
The teacher who led the team was afraid that they would be nervous, so he kept saying some words of encouragement.
Xiao Baozi was originally very calm, but he was upset and irritable by their quarrel, so he said: "Teacher, don't talk about it, I have a really good mentality." ”
As soon as she said this, the three teachers looked at each other, and the atmosphere was instantly a little awkward.
Lu Fan hurriedly spoke out and played a round game: "Teacher, you really don't have to worry, the two of us have a good psychological quality, and we won't be nervous at all." ”
The teacher who led the team smiled wryly, and then didn't speak again, and when the staff came to tell them that they could go on the field to prepare, they could only watch Lu Fan and Xiao Baozi, and couldn't keep up.
After Xiao Baozi and Lu Fan went out, they found that the other American player was already waiting outside the door, and after seeing the two of them, the American player greeted them warmly, as if everyone was not an opponent, but a friend who had not seen each other for a long time.
Xiao Baozi was a little confused by his reaction, but fortunately, Lu Fan reacted quickly and immediately responded to the American player.
"What does he mean by that?" Xiao Baozi asked softly.
Lu Fan replied: "I don't know, maybe it's just natural enthusiasm." ”
Xiao Baozi is very helpless, she has no way to deal with this kind of self-acquaintance, she can only hope that they will not come to her to talk to her.
The finals officially began, with three people sitting at a table, and under the stage were the judges of the competition, as well as many spectators watching the competition.
Xiao Baozi took a deep breath to calm her emotions.
The staff first introduced the specific rules of the finals, there are two finals in total, the first one everyone has the opportunity to answer the question, one point will be added for the correct answer, two points will be deducted for the wrong answer, and the one with the least points will be eliminated.
The second is the competition for the champion and runner-up, and the person who answers the most questions correctly within the allotted time wins.
In the first game, Xiao Baozi and Lu Fan successfully answered all the questions correctly, but the American player answered one wrong and was eliminated directly, and could only be the third runner-up.
There was a ten-minute break before the second game began, and Xiao Baozi and Lu Fan sat backstage and waited.
Xiao Baozi said at this time: "I won't release water in the next game." ”
"How do you know I'm going to lose to you?" Lu Fan smiled.
Xiao Baozi looked up confidently, and she said, "I don't have the word 'lose' in my dictionary." ”
Lu Fan rubbed her hair and smiled even more happily: "Then we all have to work hard." ”
In the second game, the two of them each had ten minutes to answer the questions, and Lu Fan started the challenge first, and he answered a total of 45 questions, which has broken the record for the most in the history of this competition.
The audience below was amazed and felt that Lu Fan was very powerful.
Xiao Baozi was not affected at all, and she confidently walked on stage to accept the challenge.
In the process of answering questions, he was calm and extremely fast, almost less than a second after the staff finished the question, he directly said the answer, and it was 100% correct.
The audience feels like they are watching a fast-paced thrilling movie and does not dare to have any relaxing moments at all.
