Chapter 770: No Hope Of Being First Place
After the subordinate left, Leng Xuan sent Shen Qianzi a message and told her to come to the hotel. Shen Qianzi was indeed more talented than average people, but she was still a huge step away from the minimum requirement to become her apprentice.
But she would still try to teach her a little for Master Bi.
Over half an hour later.
The assistant brought Shen Qianzi into the presidential suite at the hotel. Leng Xuan was sitting on a sofa chair in front of the panoramic French windows, looking down at the ancient architecture museum a few streets away.
Lu Chengzhou’s words that day were on her mind, making her grip the armrest tightly. The look in her eyes showed that she was determined to get something.
“Come in, Ms. Shen.”
The assistant’s voice made Leng Xuan snap out of her trance and look over.
Shen Qianzi stood in front of her. “Elder Leng.”
Leng Xuan gave off a very cold aura. She aid calmly, “Have a seat.”
Shen Qianzi smiled. “Thank you, Elder Leng.”
Leng Xuan pointed her chin to a thumbdrive on the table. “It contains the competition topics from the previous years and other competition-related materials. Contact Leng Yun if there is anything that you do not understand.”
“Alright,” Shen Qianzi answered. She looked at the assistant. “Sorry to bother you, Assistant Leng.”
Leng Yun smiled. “Not a problem, Ms. Shen.”
“There is no hope for Capital University’s team to score first place in the competition.” Leng Xuan said with contempt. Her tone was arrogant and she looked at her beautiful fingers. “You can still get into the Jijing Special Institute if you place first. Got it?”
Shen Qianzi moved her eyes a little. “Got it.”
This meant that she could not share this information with the students at Capital University.
Leng Xuan nodded. She seemed to have thought of something and she smirked in a scornful manner. “The ranking of Capital University this time…”
Shen Qianzi waited for her to continue but Leng Xuan trailed off.
She asked subconsciously, “What will happen with Capital University? Will their ranking be very bad?”
The medical school took the competition very seriously.
In previous years, training was conducted during the evening self-study time. This time, they had private training sessions. They even hired a dedicated professor to coach the participants.
Their intention was to continue fighting up the ladder. Even if they were not the top team, they had to improve from their previous rank.
Leng Xuan put her hands on the armrest of the sofa chair and got up. “You’ll know then.”
With that, she turned and walked to her room.
…
The next day.
The training course of the competition officially started. They had private training classes for a week. The venue was the same as in previous years. It was set in the conference suites of the hotel next to the Capital University.
The hotel was quiet and the conditions were good. The team consisted of five to eight people. As the competition was ranked based on average points, each school decided the number of participants based on their own strengths.
Capital University’s team had five members. They also had a translator, Qin Yaozhi, because the competition was held in English. The English used on Jijing Island was different from the English used in Country Z. Words were pronounced differently and the general accent was different as well.
It was so different that it proved difficult for some people. As Qin Yaozhi was very good with English, she applied to be the translator. She had meant for it to be a surprise for Gu Mang but when she arrived at the venue, she did not see Gu Mang there.
At the entrance of the hotel.
Yang Tianming and a professor with the surname Xue led the team.
Professor Xue looked at everyone and said, “Alright, everyone’s here. Let’s go.”
“Professor Yang.” Qin Yaozhi stepped forward and looked a little confused. “Isn’t Gu Mang participating in the competition?”
Yang Tianming felt as if someone had poked him in the heart. “No.”
