Chapter 95: The next round of exams
If you carefully observe the list of 150 shortlisted candidates, you will find an amazing fact - among the shortlisted candidates, the number of candidates in the three groups is the largest, reaching an incredible 73!
In other words, out of 100 students in the three groups, only 27 were brushed off in this round, and more than two-thirds of the students remained.
This directly led to the number of shortlisted students in the first and second groups falling to less than 50 percent.
Although this result was quite shocking, no one questioned the fairness of the judges' scores, after all, the overall strength of the performances of the three groups on the day is a fact for all to see.
In fact, at least half of the students who can stay in this round are roughly equivalent in terms of overall strength. If you go to the competition, except for some people who are particularly outstanding in their skills, it is not certain who is superior or inferior, and it depends largely on the performance on the spot. It's only natural that if you get the best opportunity to play, you'll get good results.
Sometimes, luck is also part of strength.
At this moment, the three groups of students in the bottom third of the list are silently grateful to their mentor, Gray Fantacia. This "substitute teacher", who is not a teacher at all, is so good as soon as he makes a move, which makes him instantly gain countless fans after this round of exams.
The end of the third round of exams does not seem to have caused too much negative emotion among the candidates, not even those who failed the list. After all, after three weeks of studying here, I have been exposed to the best things, my horizons have really opened, and I have also seen my own gaps and directions.
There is nothing to regret anymore.
When the results first came out, Shaida was so excited that she forgot about the pain in her foot. But after the initial excitement passed, the sharp pain in her right foot knocked her down directly, making it difficult for her to even get out of bed and walk.
It was at this time that I received an official notice that there would be a five-day break, and after five days, the shortlisted candidates would take the final round of exams to decide on the final 100 new students this year.
The past round of exams was a huge test, and after supporting it, most of the students felt as if their bodies had been hollowed out, and they simply had no strength to face the next round of challenges. However, it is obvious that the elimination rate of the next round of exams is also 50%, and its cruelty is actually no worse than that of the previous round.
Shaida was one of the members who had exhausted their strength and collapsed on the bed.
Moreover, I don't know what the last round of exams will be, and I don't even have the slightest hint.
The people around her are very loving, and Angela will run over to take care of her and help her bring food. Sometimes, even Minnie will help her with something, although Minnie always seems impatient.
All this made Shaida's heart feel warm and comforted.
In the evening, everyone else went outside to do the last round of practice of the day, and Shaida couldn't do anything but go to bed early.
Although I lay down, my feet hurt so badly that I couldn't sleep. Thinking about the final round of exams that will be held in five days, I feel panicked.
The phone next to the pillow suddenly vibrated slightly.
Shaida was taken aback. The mobile phone was newly bought before coming to the northern country, and I don't use a mobile phone at home, at most, I go to the patriarch every few days to make a phone call.
But this vibration, as if you received a short letter?
Xia Ida picked up her phone and saw that she had indeed received a new message, and the message was sent by an unfamiliar mobile phone number.
"Don't be in a hurry, take your medicine on time, change your medicine on time, and get more sleep. After five days, you can go back to the field with a bandage. ”
Although there is no signature, who else will tell her about this?
This kind of expression, without any emotion, is almost like that face that lacks expression. Also, at the end of the sentence there is a capital letter G, which seems to be the initial letter of Gray Fantacia's name "Gray".
Shaida held her phone and felt her heart beat faster.
There are a lot of things I want to say to him, but the word thank you seems to be too thin to express my gratitude at all. Shaida grew up in the same environment, people are extremely grateful for gratitude, but rarely choose to express it in words, but are more inclined to turn gratitude into action.
After a long while, Xia Yida somehow sent out a sentence.
"I'm a little scared."
Yes, that's what it really feels like at the moment. In fact, since I recovered from the stimulation of the previous round, I have already had such feelings, but I have been accumulating in my heart and have not sorted it out at all.
Now, when I saw a message from Fantacia suddenly, I somehow confronted my heart all of a sudden, and I realized that this feeling of tossing and turning and feeling uncomfortable all over my body was because I had been afraid.
It is often the case that before the road has even begun, there is infinite courage for the newborn calf not to be afraid of tigers. But the more I move forward, the more difficulties I pass, the more uneasy I become, the more I suffer from gains and losses, and I feel that I can't lose everything I have accumulated before.
The phone was silent for a while, then vibrated again.
This time there are only three words: "It can be passed." ”
After that, nothing was said again.
Shaida looked at these three words again and again, and her heart suddenly settled down. He did not say the origin of this judgment at all, nor did he give any arguments, but his words have such weight that they can be blindly superstitious.
Shaida clutched her phone, replaying all kinds of recent events in her head, and unconsciously fell asleep.
I don't know if it's to reassure these candidates or despair, the questions for the next round of exams were actually announced on the second day of the release of the results, as if to announce to them - don't try to prepare, even if you want to, you can't prepare!
Because the topic of the next round of exams is imitation of dance segments.
I didn't expect the final exam to be such a regular choice.
Imitation of dance sections, these professionally trained students are often practiced. It is usually a short dance segment performed through a live demonstration or video, and then the students use their own memory, imagination and understanding to imitate this segment as much as possible. Since the dance sections are unfamiliar and have never been learned, this is a great test of the students' qualities, including memory, physical expression ability, and the ability to quickly grasp the rhythm and fit with the music.
No one asks students to be perfect in the process of imitating a dance section, and it can be said that it is impossible to memorize the entire dance section in such a short period of time. In those gaps in memory, students need to fill in with their own understanding, so that the flow of action does not appear awkwardly interrupted.
