BXBX NOVEL Chapter 199: Answered Only Twelve Questions!
Very quickly, papers were placed in front of Tong Yang and Rong Yue.
Also, Madame Tong and Teacher Lu were instructed to move aside to let both parties work independently.
"There are 30 theory questions there that have been randomly selected from the last examination questions. They are questions that you have both seen before, and we would like to see your answers to them."
Following instructions, the camera focused on Tong Yang, and everyone could see the slight panic on her face.
Minister Zhang checked his time and announced, "The both of you have an hour to answer all the questions."
Rong Yue got to work immediately. She leaned back and read through the questions carefully. Her aura was confident and firm.
Even though the camera only went to her side in one minute, it was easy for people to sense that aura through the screen!
She read the questions for about five minutes and started answering the questions. The media person gave another five seconds of screen time so that people could see that she had started answering the questions.
While Tong Yang was answering the questions, she frowned and cursed Minister Zhang in her mind.
How could this be called randomly picked? This was clearly a selection of all the hardest questions!
She was already panicking. If she couldn't get a decent score, it would be hard to fight for it.
Madame Tong was even more worried; she knew her daughter's capabilities and could only pray that the questions weren't difficult.
Rong Yue's hand on the question paper moved speedily, and after twenty-five minutes, she raised her hands. "I'm done."
Tong Yang's hand trembled as she looked at Rong Yue in fear.
"You must have seen the questions before this!" She accused wildly, her mind unable to believe that while she had only answered five, Rong Yue was done.
"Yes, I have seen the questions before," Rong Yue said with a faint smile hanging on her lips.
"But you have also seen the questions before, or you don't remember?" Rong Yue continued. This time, there was a subtle pressure in her words.
"These questions were lifted from the questions we answered in the college examination that just passed."
As she said that, Tong Yang remembered that it was the case, she had even just thought about it.
Her face flushed awkwardly.
"Miss Tong Yang, you still have about thirty-five more minutes. You can use keep answering the questions," One of the staff reminded her.
Tong Yang nodded and went back to writing. The camera was focused on her, and everyone watching had started a discussion on the internet.
[she wants to compete with the speed of Rong Yue? Didn't she check herself?]
Everyone who paid attention to things like this knew Rong Yue's speed for answering questions.
There was no longer surprise, and most of them just felt deep admiration for her.
[Can we get more screen time from Rong Yue? I need to see that beauty again!]
[She looks nothing like the Rong Yue from the Global championship, is there some foul play going on there?]
When City A High School students saw comments like these, they jumped on it.
[She was in disguise before. This is her true look]
[I agree x10]
With more and more people saying the same thing, the first comment was swallowed.
[Rong Yue is the real beauty with brains! And to think that she doesn't want to flaunt her looks.]
[She knows that her brain is more than enough! She doesn't need to use her beauty as a card.]
Since Rong Yue finished first, most of the audience already supported her. By the time thirty-five minutes was up. Tong Yang answered twelve questions.
She wasn't wrong. To make the gap between them clear, Minister Zhang had instructed them to select the hardest questions under every subject.
Whoever scored the initial full marks shouldn't have any difficulty with it right?
More importantly, it would also prove that their marking guide for the person that scored full marks was true!
The two answer sheets were handed over to the professionals to mark them.
Since Tong Yang only answered twelve questions, the professional marking her paper finished first.
"Miss Tong answered only twelve questions, and she got seven correctly out of the twelve questions."
Minister Zhang glanced at Tong Yang, his gaze heavy, before looking away. He instructed another professional to look through it to avoid errors.
While Tong Yang's paper was going through the second check, the person in charge of Rong Yue's paper also finished.
"Miss Rong answered all thirty questions. All the questions were answered correctly."
Before Minister Zhang could talk, she passed the answer sheet to the remaining professors at the round table.
"To make things easier, let's make copies of her paper so that everyone can look through it at the same time."
The suggestion was good, and a staff went to the secretary section at the edge of the room to make copies.
Now, everyone had a copy of Rong Yue's paper, and the camera was well-positioned to show everyone as they checked it.
"There's no fault in her answers." One of them said after ten minutes.
"I agree," three others echoed at the same time.
Minister Zhang stood up, his face filled with satisfaction.
"Miss Tong Yang, earlier, you said that your answers in the college entrance examinations deserved full marks, right?"
Tong Yang, at this point, wanted nothing more than to hide.
She had scored seven while Rong Yue had answered everything. Was there anything else to be said?
"Y…yes.." she managed to answer.
"In that case, we would compare the handwriting of the answer sheets we had before and what we have now!
As soon as Tong Yang heard that, her body stiffened, and she fell back into her chair.
"T…there's no n..need,"
