According to the numerous romance novels that Chen Xiaolong had read over the years in his pursuit of Wang Shiya, there was an analysis to be made. When a woman develops a certain very strong emotion towards a man, then itâs the beginning of her downfall.
Chen Xiaolong immediately grew tense, his heart wailing frantically. No, donât let it happen, my Shiya, you must withstand the pressure! Oh Shiya, how can I live without you!
With the announcement of the rankings, An Nuonuo was the happiest.
If it werenât for the crowd, she would have thrown herself into Jiang Xuâs arms long ago.
A ten-minute break was taken before the team competition began.
Perhaps due to the fact that they had peaked too soon, this yearâs competitors from Zhi Jiang University, aside from Wang Shiya and Chen Xiaolong, did not have particularly strong skills.
So, when it came to the team competition, it was down to Jiang Xu and Wang Shiyaâs teams to compete.
And the overall champion would be determined by the combined scores of the individual and team competitions.
Currently, Jiang Xu was leading by one point.
During the break, Jiang Xu called An Nuonuo and Lu Chao together to confirm their battle strategy once again.
No matter what the question was, they would follow Jiang Xuâs lead.
Among the three of them, Jiang Xuâs ability was the strongest. Not far off, a student from Zhi Jiang University watched Jiang Xu. He looked around and, seeing that no one noticed him, he quickly walked towards Jiang Xu.
His fists clenched, his face showing a fierce light, he muttered to himself, âThe first place in this competition must belong to Zhi Jiang University, even if I have to stake my future on it!â
At a distance of only five meters from Jiang Xu, the student started to sprint. Inside the school, Jiang Xuâs bodyguards were too far away. They wouldnât make it in time to rush over at this moment.
Luckily, Jiang Xuâs perception was much stronger than that of the average person.
He sensed danger and turned around.
He saw a massive fist smashing towards his face.
Caught off guard, he could only manage to raise his arms to block his face.
With a loud bang, Jiang Xu was knocked back several steps.
Only then did the others react, screaming out loud.
Jiang Xuâs bodyguards arrived and pinned the male student to the ground.
ââ Liu Rujiao, have you lost your mind!â Chen Xiaolong shouted with rage and exasperation.
Liu Rujiao struggled to raise his head, speaking calmly, âI know what the consequences of my actions are, but the honor of the school must not be lost.â âYou idiot!â Chen Xiaolong was so angry that he kicked him several times- âYouâve completely disgraced our school!â
This kind of behavior-resorting to violence out of fear of a strong competitor -was equivalent to slinging mud on Zhi Jiang University.
And it was the kind that was very hard to wash off.
The higher-ups at Magic University were so furious they were trembling, declaring that Liu Rujiao must be sent to prison.
An Nuonuo and the others ran over to check if Jiang Xu was alright.
Jiang Xu shook his head.
Luckily he reacted quickly, and his body was strong enough on its own.
His arms just felt a bit numb, but it wasnât a big deal.
If Liu Rujiao had hit his face, then his combat effectiveness would likely have decreased significantly.
Eventually, Liu Rujiao was taken away.
It was impossible to put him in prison because the crime wasnât severe enough. But he would definitely be expelled from the university; there was no doubt about that.
Wang Shiya walked over, bowed ninety degrees to Jiang Xu with a sincere attitude, âI apologize to you. I failed to manage my subordinates.â Even though she was sincere, the womanâs voice was still very cold. It was as if she were a slab of eternal ice.
Jiang Xu waved his hand: âIt doesnât matter, letâs see the real skills in action.â
After the incident, the team competition started.
To prevent such incidents from happening again, the school called in a number of security personnel to maintain order.
The referee announced the competition rules loudly, âThe team competition will last for five hours, divided into offense and defense.
The offensive side will create a virus software, while the defensive side will produce an antivirus software.
Whichever side canât hold out first, loses. Now letâs start drawing lots to determine the offensive and defensive sides.â
A glint flickered in Jiang Xuâs eyes.
With only five hours to craft either an antivirus software or a virus, the challenge was indeed great.
Realistically, the offensive side would have a slight advantage.
So, Jiang Xu sent his girlfriend to participate in the drawing.
After all, her luck had always been good.
âIâll go.â It was supposed to be Chen Xiaolong from Zhi Jiang University who would draw the lot.
But when Wang Shiya saw An Nuonuo step up, she stopped Chen Xiaolong and went up herself.
âItâs over,â Chen Xiaolong said, clutching his heart, a picture of sorrow, âShiya Xu?â0â8 aâentiOn t0 An NU°nU° nowâ Could she real)y have fallen for Jiang
The two stunning girls stood side by side, shining like two luminous pearls. One was sweet and cute, the other poised and cool-a contrast of extremes. An Nuonuo nodded politely.
Wang Shiya responded coolly.
The drawing began.
Wang Shiya first.
An Nuonuo opened the slip of paper and couldnât help but clench her fist before respectfully handing it to the referee.
Seeing her expression, Jiang Xu knew An Nuonuo must have drawn the offensive side.
True enough, the referee announced the results of the draw.
An Nuonuo, with a flushed little face, ran back, feeling like she had accomplished something.
Jiang Xu leaned over to her ear and whispered, âImpressive, Iâll reward you well tonight.â
An Nuonuo shyly lowered her head, âThank you, hubby-â
Jiang Xu lifted his head, afraid he might get a nosebleed.
She didnât reject him this timeâwho could withstand that?
Even a man made of steel would turn soft in front of An Nuonuo.
The competition officially began!
Jiang Xu quickly distributed the tasks.
An Nuonuo and Lu Chao were in charge of building the framework for the antivirus software.
He, on the other hand, was responsible for the core.
With time so pressing, not even someone as skilled as Jiang Xu could produce a perfect virus software.
Similarly, it would be impossible for Wang Shiyaâs team to create an antivirus software without a single bug.
Thus, Jiang Xuâs strategy was to create an army of âminionsâ to win through a âwar of attritionâ.
On the other side, Wang Shiya quickly spoke, âI suspect that Jiang Xu and his team will definitely use a âwar of attritionâ tactic.
Therefore, our goal is to build a wall without any âholesâ, even if itâs thin.'ââ Chen Xiaolong nodded, âOkay, letâs do as you say. We will definitely win. If we win, will you agree to be my girlfriend?â
Wang Shiya, âLetâs start.â
Chen Xiaolong: (7 ââ) 7.
Both teams, wearing headphones, silently tapped away at their keyboards. The competition was lengthy, and the school sent someone to deliver lunch. It was all meat buns, steamed buns, milk, and such.
Food that could be eaten quickly to continue the competition.
Some of the audience left midway, and the venue wasnât as lively anymore.
Five hours of non-stop coding was a tremendous test of stamina and mental strength for the competitors on both sides.
In the blink of an eye, five hours passed.
Both sides stopped, and the final showdown had arrived!
