"Please take your seats, contestants from both sides." I didn't see him in person, but I heard his voice. The voice of the order officer was very ordinary. Yang Yu couldn't hear anything special, and this voice was not easy to remember.
Under the shouts of the order officer, Yang Yu and the man looked at each other at the same time, but when the man looked at Yang Yu, he threw down a broken book in his hand.
To be more precise, it was not a book, but more like a half-worn and thick notebook. The notebook had turned yellow from the man's touch, but he was very careful when throwing it down from the high platform.
Yang Yu could tell that he was a typical young scholar from a poor family who hoped to change his destiny through knowledge. Looking at his clothes, he estimated that his life was very tight.
Is it true that in the Alchemy City, there is such a thing as saying that those who enjoy themselves enough but don’t know how to pay tribute with their mouth and body are no better than human beings?
"Hello, my name is Liu Xue. I am twenty-two years old. I am asking for advice." After putting down the old notes, the man slightly bent towards Yang Yu. It seemed that the young man was still very polite and courteous as a scholar.
"Hello, my name is Qi Xiang. I am twenty-five years old this year. I admit it." Yang Yu always responded with courtesy. This Liu Xue was so polite. He couldn't be too arrogant, because now he no longer has That kind of self-righteous and superior mentality.
"Okay, both sides are ready. According to the rules, Liu Xue will take the lead in asking questions." The order officer still did not show his face, but the order has been decided by him.
"Ahem, first question, small oases in the southern area of the abandoned city, one can be seen at certain distances." After adjusting his state, Liu Xue asked the first question.
Regarding this first question, Yang Yu felt that Liu Xue was really serious about studying. Normally, ordinary people like them were not qualified to go to the abandoned city.
In his opinion, Yang Yu must have never been to the abandoned city. At most, Yang Yu only has a superficial understanding of the situation in the abandoned city. Yang Yu must not be able to answer such detailed questions.
But even though he was so confident, he still showed that he was not very confident, and even felt a little inferior.
However, Liu Xue underestimated Yang Yu a little too much. Although Yang Yu is only twenty-five years old this year, Yang Yu's life experience may be more exciting than that of some elders.
Who would have thought that this peerless genius, who attracted the attention of the whole continent, had to hide in the abandoned city to save his life.
Just when Yang Yu was about to answer the question, a white light suddenly shone on him. Because of this white light, some changes occurred around Yang Yu.
At this moment, Yang Yu was even more impressed by the final of the Baijie Knowledge Competition. These white lights, which looked useless from outside, actually had such an effect.
Because the forbidden magic stone sealed the spiritual power, Yang Yu's vision was reduced to the level of a spiritual master, and this white light actually sealed Yang Yu's vision. Now Yang Yu, except for Liu Xue opposite him, could not see anyone. to the surrounding situation.
This mechanism is very good, because some people are powerful, and they may have arranged wise men in the audience, who can then conveniently deliver answers in sign language, and small actions among the crowd are difficult to be judged as cheating.
But that's really unfair to others, so that's why we have this white light protection mechanism.
"Five kilometers, yes, five kilometers." Yang Yu also gave Liu Xue face. Although he came up with the answer within five seconds, Yang Yu still pretended to think for a minute before giving the answer.
"The answer is correct, Qi Xiang will ask the next question." Under the voice of the order officer, the white light on the high platform slowly fell, and Yang Yu regained his vision again.
On the opposite side, when Yang Yu answered the correct answer, Liu Xue lowered his head. It seemed that he was really a bit harsh on himself!
"Well, listen up! The first question is, along the way from Qi Du to Ti Man, there will be a tree house at regular intervals. Under normal circumstances, how far is the distance between tree houses?" Regarding this understanding As a young man, Yang Yu never slacked off.
It's all a matter of distance. Liu Xue thought that Yang Yu had never been to Abandoned City, but Yang Yu bet that Liu Xue had never left Alchemy City. What would he know about these distances! …
time minute by second
In the past, Liu Xue never raised his head, and he did not tell his answer. It seemed that Yang Yu's first question was difficult for this diligent scholar.
"Ten, two, twenty kilometers?" Just when the order officer was about to urge him, Liu Xue still gave a question-like answer. It seemed that he really didn't know how!
"I'm sorry, your answer is wrong. The average distance between tree houses is about fifteen kilometers." After shaking his head, Yang Yu said the correct answer with a little regret.
"Yeah! Qi Xiang's answer is correct, Liu Xue made a mistake." After Yang Yu gave the correct answer, the order officer announced the correct answer.
On the other side, Liu Xue's actions also startled Yang Yu. Liu Xue still didn't raise his head, but he pulled up his sleeves, and then pinched his arm hard with his black and red nails. .
hiss!
He pulled out a blood mark two to three centimeters deep, and there were already more than a dozen such marks on his hands. Liu Xue just gritted his teeth and did not scream during the whole process.
Seeing this scene, Yang Yu didn't know what to say. Obviously those blood stains were left by Liu Xue's wrong answer before the finals.
Yang Yu didn't know why Liu Xue was so harsh on him, even a little sick, but questions like this really can't be answered by punishing himself. This kind of punishment has basically no big benefits except self-abuse. .
Yang Yu barely walked through the woods where Qi Du reached Timan three times. Once he walked with Yu Jun, so Yang Yu knew these distances very well. Liu Xue couldn't answer, so he was probably cleaning up. .
"First, second question, please tell me, according to the rules of reward killing in the ruined city, what does the flashing red light on the heads of psychics mean?" When asking the second question, Liu Xue was obviously more cowardly.
Regarding this issue, Yang Yu really admires Liu Xue. He has never been to Wasted City, but he should have a special understanding of Wasted City's system.
To be honest, if Yang Yu hadn't met Wei Qian in the last two days, Yang Yu wouldn't have known about this special rule.
Because most of the people in the abandoned city left when the time came, or those who hid were extremely careful, it was impossible to be discovered, and Liu Xue was betting that Yang Yu would not be able to answer this question.
"Uh, ahem, that one!"
"Oh, red light! Those who have entered the abandoned city for more than two years, but have not exceeded four years, and do not want to leave, their heads will flash red." After pretending to be confused for a while, Yang Yu Still gave the correct answer.
"Yes! The answer is correct. Now Qi Xiang will continue to ask questions." When the order officer said this, Liu Xue's head lowered a little. He might not understand why Yang Yu knew the rules of the abandoned city so well.
"Okay, listen! The second question..."...
"Okay, question seven, Qi Xiang answered correctly. Qi Xiang, you can end the game early. Do you..."
"No, let the game continue!" Yang Yu said calmly, interrupting the order officer's speech.
The competition between Yang Yu and Liu Xue was barely exciting. Just now, Yang Yu answered all the questions raised by Liu Xue correctly. In other words, Yang Yu got full marks.
The reason why the order officer asked this question is because Liu Xue answered five of the first six questions correctly. In other words, after Yang Yu answered that question correctly, no matter whether Liu Xue answered the next question correctly or not, he All were eliminated.
But that’s it! Yang Yu knew that Liu Xue was so focused on the Baijie Knowledge Competition. If he was eliminated without even answering the last question, it would be too harmful to him.
"I, I, I don't know." After saying this, Liu Xue finally cried. Yang Yu gave him respect, which also made him unable to answer the last question.
"Okay, Liu Xue, your competition card has been recycled. Thank you for your participation. Keep up the good work next time!" It was really rare. At the end, the order officer still gave Liu Xue an encouragement.
As the order officer finished speaking, the abrupt high platform slowly fell, and the surrounding white light gradually dissipated, and Yang Yu finally saw Liu Xue's face.
Liu Xue looks ordinary, but his complexion
It was not good. Malnutrition made his complexion pale and yellow. Staying up too late made his eyes bloodshot. Nervousness and disappointment made his expression a little strange. The failure of the game made him completely bent over.
Yang Yu understands this expression, it is the feeling that Yang Yu feels when he participates in the preliminary round and is eliminated in the first game. That feeling is that he has put in so much effort, but has no effect at all. It is a deep powerlessness.
Yang Yu is not sure whether Liu Xue is smart or not, but Yang Yu is sure that Liu Xue is very serious and hardworking. However, in this world, it does not mean that hard work and hard work will definitely lead to rewards, because you don’t know. Various factors will create what kind of person.
"No, it's impossible, it's impossible, I'm not serious enough, I'm not serious enough." On the opposite side, after Liu Xue picked up the worn-out notebook, he started to go crazy, and the thick book was pushed to his head. Smash it up.
After taking a look at Liu Xue, Yang Yu left here silently. Liu Xue's situation is not his own problem. People must not only work hard, but also recognize their own identity, and learn to accept failure. Obviously, this Liu Xue is not good enough. With him like this, even if he was beaten to death, the senior management would not sympathize with him and let him advance.
Liu Xue was just an interlude. Because of these more than forty days of accumulation, Yang Yu had completely paved his way. Even though he didn't read the complete book of Super Wu Di Zhongwei in those days, it did not affect Yang Yu's knowledge reserve at all. .
In the second round of the finals the next day, Yang Yu even directly won the competition by answering only four questions from his opponent, because Yang Yu's second opponent, Yang Yu, did not answer any of the four questions. Come up.
And this is the final. He is already fair among the unfair. Compared with Yang Yu's second opponent, Liu Xue is definitely better, but Liu Xue met Yang Yu in the first game.
Therefore, to succeed, strength, opportunity, and mentality are all indispensable.
