Chapter 188: Chapter 188: Want to Come Directly to Nan University?

However, once the applause from the audience had died down, it was Yuan Yuan’s turn to answer the question.

Professor Wang Bo took the microphone and asked Yuan Yuan, "I would like to ask contestant Yuan Yuan, which work by Huaxia’s Southern Dynasty literary critic Zhong Rong praises the ’Ancient Poems Nineteen’ as ’breathtaking and invaluable’?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yuan suddenly clenched her fists tightly.

She had not received the answer to this question beforehand.

She knew very little about the poets from the Southern Dynasty, let alone literary critics.

Momentarily, Yuan Yuan tried desperately to suppress the awkwardness inside her and shook her head slightly towards Professor Wang Bo, "I’m sorry, I don’t know."

Not answering, at least, wouldn’t deduct points.

...

Hearing Yuan Yuan’s answer, Professor Wang Bo couldn’t help but turn to Qianxun, "Does contestant Su Qianxun know the answer to this question?"

Qianxun responded calmly, "Yes, it’s ’Poetic Evaluations.’"

Upon hearing this, Professor Wang Bo applauded again, "Contestant Su Qianxun indeed has profound and extensive knowledge. I heard you are taking the college entrance exam next year? How about coming directly to Nan University?"

The implication was clear, come to Nan University instead of taking the college entrance exam, I’ll take you under my wing!

Seeing a doctoral supervisor extend such an invitation directly to Qianxun, a cheer erupted from the crowd.

Sun Ze also looked at Qianxun with excitement and complexity at this time.

What would she choose?

Professor Wang Bo was a towering figure in the field of history.

With him offering personally, Qianxun need not take the college entrance exam to study at Nan University with him.

...

Yuan Yuan nearly couldn’t control her expression in front of the camera when she heard Professor Wang Bo’s words.

This is a competition, not your Old Man Wang’s recruitment event!

So Su Qianxun can recite a few poems, so what? What’s there to look up to?

I think you, old man, are really getting senile and going blind!

At this time, Wen Wan was somewhat surprised as she looked towards Su Qianxun, "Teacher Wang Bo loves talents, as everyone knows. It seems, he really is very pleased with contestant Su Qianxun."

Upon hearing this, Qianxun smiled faintly and respectfully said to Professor Wang, "Thank you for your high regard, Teacher Wang. However, I’ve said that I want to bring a science scholar title back to Nanyang High School, so I do not plan to skip the college entrance exam. Thank you for your generous offer!"

Professor Wang couldn’t help but show a hint of disappointment upon hearing this, "Well, alright then."

Such a promising student, and yet she’s a science student.

But her intent to aim for a science scholar title, placed on this extraordinary girl, didn’t seem boastful to him.

During the entire competition, only she was neither arrogant nor rash, calm and collected; such a girl must have a very strong inner spirit, and immense confidence in herself.

Her confidence in making that statement showed she had the foundation to back it up.

...

The competition continued.

The peak competition had five mentors rotating to ask questions, previously Qianxun had been first to be asked, so naturally, it was Yuan Yuan’s turn next.

" ’Broken Formation’ mentions: ’The horse named Dilu galloped swiftly.’ This poem narrates the story of ’Dilu saving its master,’ so, who did ’Dilu horse’ save?" a female teacher asked.

Hearing this, Yuan Yuan relaxed and then casually answered, "Liu Bei!"

"Correct answer!" The female teacher applauded for Yuan Yuan and then explained the allusion.

Then, she looked towards Qianxun again, "Huaxia civilization has persisted to the present, producing many poets among whom is a prolific one. Besides writing poetry, he was also a master chef in life and could handle both the pen and the sword, once killing a fierce tiger with a spear. May I ask, who is he?" The female teacher had a faint smile, but it did not reach her eyes, unlike the more affable tone she had used when asking Yuan Yuan before.
