TWWMABMTBH Chapter 39
by VolareChapter 39: Who Isn’t a Genius Compared to Dinosaurs?
[Doubt Value 2000]
The System subconsciously reminded Rong Ziyan: Rong, take care!
Rong Ziyan was also very surprised. He sized up the pattern on Yao Lele’s clothes for a few seconds and whispered to Xu Chuanzhi, “Has the fierce reputation of the Landscape Architecture Department spread so far? Even the production team knows about it?”
Xu Chuanzhi swallowed, not knowing how to answer Rong Ziyan’s death question.
But Yao Lele had already lost her patience and rushed towards Rong Ziyan, determined to beat him up.
Rong Ziyan nimbly hid behind Xu Chuanzhi, “Lele, calm down, do you remember you’re a girl?”
Yao Lele sneered and reached out to grab him, “Heh, stop talking nonsense! The moment I put on my Kung Pao Chicken-colored lipstick, I’m not a girl anymore!”
“Rong, you dog, don’t run, I will destroy you today!”
So, when the cameras arranged by the production team started live broadcasting, netizens across the country saw the extremely fierce scene of Yao Lele.
Rong Ziyan said, “Damn it, Lele, you’ve hurt the reputation of the Landscape Architecture sisters!”
“Bullshit!” Yao Lele was so angry that she crushed the mineral water bottle in her hand. The whole room fell silent.
Everyone’s minds were instantly filled with one thought: Damn, the heroine is indeed skilled!
This Landscape Architecture Department can not only pull up big trees with their bare hands, but also smash rocks on their chests and cut tiles with knives!
And this fear dominated by force, from before the competition, had firmly shocked everyone. Even after the one-on-one matches were confirmed at the start, the environmental protection department’s genius who was up against Yao Lele couldn’t help but shiver.
Their minds were filled with TV drama scenes of “Lu Zhishen uprooting a willow tree, and Leopard Head mistakenly entering the White Tiger Hall.”
Faced with this embarrassing scene, Yao Lele wore a beautiful face, with raging anger burning in her heart. She just wanted to blow up this unlucky production team along with her opponent when she went on stage later.
[Yao Lele’s Anger Value 5000]
The System couldn’t help but sigh: “Rong, look how angry you made that girl.”
Rong Ziyan said seriously, “Don’t talk nonsense, she came here today wearing boiled fish-colored lipstick. Looking at her aura, she wants to beat everyone down!”
However, after hearing this, the System suddenly began to rejoice. Fortunately, Rong Ziyan didn’t say these words in front of Yao Lele, or else even the competition wouldn’t have saved his life.
Five minutes later, the host arrived, and the fierce competition finally kicked off.
The first item was drawing lots to determine the order of the group matches.
Rong Ziyan’s group was set to compete against the geniuses from the Human Geography Department. As a surprise attack team, according to the program rules, this time the draw would be done by Rong Ziyan’s team as the representative.
So, at Rong Ziyan’s suggestion, Yao Lele drew a card.
As expected, it was the last one. Indirectly verifying the production team’s cunning and the inside story of the script.
There were a total of six teams, and their group was the most sensational, so of course, it had to be left to the climax at the end to maximize the benefits.
Yao Lele casually threw the slip of paper on the table, feeling that this kind of small calculation was too inferior and petty.
Rong Ziyan advised, “Don’t think about these things, let’s see what questions they have ahead of us first. If there is time left, review before the match.”
“Right.” Yao Lele took a deep breath, quickly calmed her affected emotions, and then took out a thick notebook from her pocket and started reading.
Xu Chuanzhi was the same. He was actually very nervous. But Rong Ziyan, who was next to him, was always very calm, which made him inexplicably feel like it was not a big deal.
The camera behind them curiously zoomed in, wanting to see what they were looking at, but what they saw was an item that almost all college students were quite familiar with – a condensed cheat sheet.
It was something like a small booklet, where the key points of the entire semester were condensed onto a piece of paper and folded up for easy reading.
But weren’t these people geniuses? Why could they bring this kind of thing to the match?
The cameraman turned his head and glanced at the directors in confusion, who were also very embarrassed.
The host improvised and pointed out to Rong Ziyan, “Our genius from the Agricultural University is too witty! Bringing cheat sheets is alright?”
Rong Ziyan calmly asked, “The production team didn’t say we couldn’t bring them!”
“But aren’t you a genius?”
Rong Ziyan spread out his hands, “Everyone has their specialties. If you ask me to neuter a boar, I can do it with my eyes closed.”
“From the anesthesia taking effect to the end of the suture, three minutes for one, five minutes for two.”
“You can try it if you don’t believe me.”
Host: …
How could he try? Should he pull two pigs over, or try it himself? The host instantly had a cold feeling between his legs.
[Bewilderment Value 1000]
The directors also didn’t expect Rong Ziyan to have this kind of answer. And then Rong Ziyan added, “Sheep will do too. Cows are slower because they are stronger.”
The host was even more confused and didn’t know how to respond for a long time. It wasn’t until a few seconds later that he reacted and hurriedly skipped this topic and continued to push the competition process forward.
But the other geniuses were not happy, “You can review before the match?”
Rong Ziyan said righteously, “If the exam is on veterinary medicine, you can bring your books to find the answers first!”
“Besides, the reason you didn’t bring any materials, wasn’t it because you didn’t gather them all?”
His words hit the nail on the head. Instantly, all the other geniuses on the field except Xu Chuanzhi and Yao Lele were speechless.
Forty books, divided among six teams. Rong Ziyan’s group took seven, and the remaining teams were left with an average of six each. Some didn’t even have six. Even if they wanted to make a cheat sheet, they couldn’t.
But the key was, if they couldn’t do it, how could Rong Ziyan’s group do it?
“You got all the materials?”
Rong Ziyan nodded, “Yes!”
“That’s impossible! How did you get them?” The other teams on the field couldn’t help but gasp in surprise. They looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.
The books selected by the production team were all very rare professional books. Unless they were found in various libraries, they couldn’t even be bought online. How did Rong Ziyan’s group manage to make the cheat sheets?
Rong Ziyan smiled and shook the cheat sheet in his hand, and said something very annoying, “You guess?”
“…”
[Anger Value 10000] The geniuses all wanted to beat Rong Ziyan.
At this time, the netizens in the live broadcast room were discussing heatedly.
“This guy called Rong Ziyan is a bit too much! Playing dirty is playing dirty, the sophistry is really disgusting.”
“Exactly, this program hasn’t done this kind of thing since it started broadcasting! It’s really embarrassing for the Agricultural University.”
“I have to say, the people in front are too kind! Can’t you see what department they are from? The mock exam is based on the breadth of knowledge, but the competition is about depth. The production team is deliberately using Rong Ziyan and the Landscape Architecture’s Yao Lele’s wide range of knowledge and maliciously using them as cannon fodder.”
“I think so too, what’s wrong with preparing some review materials? The other teams are all within their specialized range!”
“Heh, you can see that looking good is useful, when did the research field start relying on looks to become famous?”
“Are you sick! Stick to the facts, what does it have to do with looks?”
The opinions varied, and they did not give way to each other. The barrage quickly tore into pieces. As the netizens’ discussions increased, the popularity of the program also rose. When the first team finished the match, the viewership of the program was almost a third higher than before.
And Rong Ziyan’s line, “Everyone has their specialties, neutering two boars in five minutes” quickly became a trending topic.
But whether this trend was bought by the production team or was real traffic was unknown.
The Agricultural University campus forum exploded again.
They had long seen through the production team’s bastardly nature, so they were even more angered by their malicious misinterpretation of Rong Ziyan.
“The internet is full of people scolding Rong Ziyan, but I think he’s right!”
“It was right from the beginning! This competition system is inherently unfair. If you really want to compare the breadth of knowledge, the questions should be comprehensive. This is just tricking people!”
“The most disgusting thing is still putting the blame on him! What’s so special about neutering two boars in five minutes? With Rong Ziyan’s hand speed, he can do a group in an hour! It’s a fuss over nothing.”
However, their anger was useless and could not affect the crazy interpretations of the netizens.
At this time, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room also reached the peak of all the programs during this time period.
It was also clear that the people who came were for two purposes. One was to be curious about who exactly could say such bizarre words. The other was to see what the final result of Rong Ziyan and his team would be.
Under such tense atmosphere, the showdown between Rong Ziyan and the Human Geography team finally officially began.
The host joked that ladies first, so the first to go on stage was Yao Lele.
Putting down the small slip of paper in her hand, Yao Lele took a deep breath to prepare to go on stage. Before leaving, she looked at Rong Ziyan, remained silent for two seconds, and finally said, “Don’t worry.” And then she walked to the competition stage.
Three minutes of rapid-fire questions and answers, the first person to make a mistake would lose.
This was the first shot of the Agricultural University, and it was crucial!
The hearts of the Agricultural University students were instantly in their throats. The barrage that had been scrolling rapidly slowed down. Everyone’s attention was focused on the competition.
But the result was very unexpected. Clearly, she had a look of a slacker who was looking at the cheat sheet before going on stage, but after she got on stage, her attack power was surprisingly full.
Yao Lele was originally a girl with a very strong aura. The bright red lipstick not only enhanced her beauty, but also added an invincible queenly aura to her.
Her pronunciation was clear, and her reactions were quick. Almost as soon as the question was asked, she could quickly answer correctly. For a moment, there was even a tendency to crush her opponent.
Yao Lele’s opponent obviously did not expect this result. One mistake and he lost to her.
“You’re too kind!” Yao Lele smiled, turned around and left the stage, leaving the Environmental Studies student alone to question his life.
“I won!” Yao Lele returned to the team, excitedly shouting at Rong Ziyan and Xu Chuanzhi.
Rong Ziyan did not speak, but Xu Chuanzhi sighed, “Brother Rong, Sister Yao, I think I’m going to lose.”
Xu Chuanzhi was also telling the truth. The questions for Rong Ziyan’s group were particularly difficult. Xu Chuanzhi had no prior knowledge in this area. Preparing at the last minute seemed useful, but there were loopholes everywhere.
Originally, he had a fluke in his mind, thinking that as long as he worked hard, he might still have a chance to fight.
But after Yao Lele’s match, he understood that he definitely had no hope, and he was immediately very frustrated.
Rong Ziyan patted him on the shoulder, “It’s okay. Just think of it as having fun. Anyway, we’re looking at the total score.”
“Okay.” Xu Chuanzhi nodded, and then, in order, went on stage and stood in Yao Lele’s previous position.
The opponent was a genius with a dual degree in history and archaeology. After a friendly chat with him, the competition officially began.
Complete crush.
From the time Xu Chuanzhi stood there to the time he was knocked off the stage, it didn’t even take ten questions, making him the fastest-defeated player in the history of the show.
As if he had not anticipated this result, the host on stage was stunned for another three seconds. Then he reluctantly invited Xu Chuanzhi down and comforted him for a few words.
The barrage heated up again.
“Hahahaha, what the hell is this? The host was stunned by the loss!”
“I’m laughing to death. The previous Yao Lele surprised me a bit. This one is too hilarious!”
“So, ugly people are always trying to act like they’re the best. Making a cheat sheet is useless, you’ll lose anyway?”
The students of the Agricultural University were so angry that their lungs were about to explode when they saw these barrages, wishing they could sew these idiots’ mouths shut.
Someone from a science major, losing a question because it was a niche question that even Baidu couldn’t find the answer to, what was there to laugh about?
If they swapped positions and had the archaeology major compete with Xu Chuanzhi in mechanical modeling, he probably wouldn’t even know how to open the software.
Xu Chuanzhi’s emotions were also much lower. After returning to the team, he didn’t say anything, but the hands hanging by his side were clenched tightly.
Humiliation! A humiliation that could almost be engraved into his bones!
Don’t look at the fact that the host only paused for three seconds just now, but the surprise on his face, and the surprise of everyone present, were deeply imprinted in Xu Chuanzhi’s mind.
Those gazes that seemed to say “how can a person be so weak” fell on Xu Chuanzhi, and it was no different than stripping him naked in public and slapping his face.
But was it his intention to not be able to answer?
Those niche questions, even people in the same field would have to think for a long time!
“Brother Rong, I saw it! That archaeology major breathed a sigh of relief.”
“He doesn’t know either, you know?” Xu Chuanzhi said to Rong Ziyan in a low voice.
“I really didn’t mean to…I’ve really never seen this before!” As Xu Chuanzhi spoke, his voice became hoarse.
Yao Lele couldn’t bear to see it, so she quickly patted Xu Chuanzhi on the shoulder, “It’s not your fault, that question was not in those forty books.”
“So it was intentional?” Xu Chuanzhi looked up, a little confused, at Rong Ziyan.
“Yes. It should be intentional, to increase the difficulty.” Rong Ziyan was the clearest of the three about the scope of the competition, so he naturally understood that there was content outside the scope of Xu Chuanzhi’s questions.
This was completely different from the past few episodes of the show, so this was another seemingly accidental but actually intentional program effect.
The goal was to make Xu Chuanzhi fail, and to severely suppress Rong Ziyan’s team once in order to gain new public opinion, and also bring greater pressure to Rong Ziyan, who would be appearing later.
System: Too disgusting.
Rong Ziyan: Yes! They don’t deserve it!
Xu Chuanzhi was someone who had gone abroad to compete with the national team and had won glory for the domestic research community. He was someone who had legitimately won awards and applied for patents. A future engineer.
Saying he was a talented genius was not an exaggeration at all. This production team actually gave him such a great humiliation just for the sake of the program’s effect. Were they not afraid that Xu Chuanzhi would be severely impacted by this, become depressed, and from then on, the research field would be missing a future star?
Yao Lele was shaking with anger, but Rong Ziyan had already stood up and prepared to participate in the final match.
“Rong Ziyan!” Yao Lele wanted to say, if you lose, the three of us might as well just crash to death here. But she couldn’t say it after all, because Rong Ziyan was also not from this major. This kind of request was no different from moral blackmail.
But Rong Ziyan smiled and replied, “Don’t worry, the Agricultural University will win!”, and then strode onto the stage.
Standing face to face on the stage, the genius from the Human Geography Department couldn’t help but look at Rong Ziyan with sympathy.
It was obvious that after the small episode just now, he also noticed the small actions of the production team.
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have been so impulsive that day.” He whispered an apology to Rong Ziyan.
Rong Ziyan didn’t say anything, as if he didn’t care.
The host walked between the two of them and said with a smile, “Let’s have the team leaders say a few words to the production team as a summary!”
“How about we start with our Agricultural University’s Rong student first?”
Rong Ziyan: “Sure, but can we say anything?”
“Yes! Of course you can.” The host agreed verbally, but in his heart, he inexplicably felt a subtle tension.
As expected, after a second of pause, Rong Ziyan opened his mouth and said, “Actually, I really regret coming to participate in your stupid program.”
“What a search for the strongest genius of all time, it’s completely uncultured.”
“Chinese history began in the Shang Dynasty, and it’s only been a total of three thousand seven hundred years. Before that, there are the Xia, Yao and Shun, and the Three Sovereigns. For that thousand years or so, no key textual records have been found so far.”
“So what are you comparing yourself to for the first four thousand years?”
“Is it the Sui people tribe who were discovered drilling wood to make fire on Mount Kunlun twelve thousand years ago?”
“I’m telling the truth, you might as well make the time longer, how about billions of years ago?”
“Compared to dinosaurs, who isn’t a genius?”
