Chapter 76: Chapter 76: Worshiping the Study God!

Rumor has it: #Ji Xizhi Applied to Qing University# With these scores, she dares aim for Qing University? Qing University might as well run a kilometer away to avoid her!

The moment this Weibo post was published.

The marketing accounts following Ji Xizhi’s exam results quickly reposted it, not even looking at the screenshot, and went viral.

Several others, already bribed to have pre-written content, copied and pasted to start flaming.

[Acting like a snob and getting exposed! Pretentious! Makes me lose my teeth from laughing!]

[Ji Xizhi should just quit the industry. If it were me, I’d want to die of shame and leave Earth!]

As soon as these mocking posts were out, the handlers behind the major marketing accounts instinctively opened Ji Xizhi’s exam results to check.

Upon clicking open.

Damn! Who the hell started this misleading narrative!!!!

Not even a minute after the marketing accounts reposted it on Weibo, they frantically began deleting the posts.

Unfortunately, netizens had already seen it.

The gossip-hungry netizens were stunned when they saw the post.

Especially those who took the exam this year.

[I thought I was seeing things! Is this picture really not photoshopped?]

[This is ridiculous. I never imagined this score could be mocked?? Full marks are five hundred, what are these people mocking??]

[Qing University: I’m getting pretentious vibes a kilometer away, rushing to admit Ji Xizhi, or what if she escapes!]

[Are the marketing accounts blind or crazy?]

[The cultural level average doesn’t surpass high school, this isn’t an exaggeration. I’m never surfing the web again!]

[I’m in awe, is Ji Xizhi some reincarnated academic god? Please, let me get 390 and bless me to get into my dream school!]

[This score is obviously photoshopped, is this reasonable? If you gather all the exam creators, they probably can’t score this much! Does Ji Xizhi have some background, cheating the answers?]

[I looked closely, the picture doesn’t seem photoshopped, I’m soaking up the good fortune!]

Everyone who saw the screenshot went crazy.

As soon as the news of Ji Xizhi scoring first in the written exam came out, it instantly shot to the trending topics.

President Zheng of Hangxing Entertainment, upon hearing the assistant found the scores and put it on Weibo, immediately contacted the PR department.

President Zheng: "Find a way to slander, she won’t get into Qing University, there’re plenty of angles to take!"

The PR department at Hangxing Entertainment opened Weibo and stared at this top exam score: "..."

With this score, even if they rack their brains, they can’t find an angle to slander!!!

After instructing the PR department, President Zheng leisurely picked up his computer, planning to watch Ji Xizhi become infamous with online ridicule.

But as soon as he logged in, he saw @Rumor Has It’s Weibo ID already had hundreds of thousands of likes and comments.

President Zheng smirked and laughed.

But soon, his laughter stopped.

Because upon clicking the comments, it was full of curses calling him an idiot.

President Zheng: ???

All the way down the comments, it was either calling him an idiot or worshipping the academic god on the spot.

Looking at this string of comments, President Zheng’s mind was about to explode.

He blacked out and directly smashed the computer on the table out of frustration.

-

On the other side, Xiao Yuan was also almost overjoyed, she was so excited that she couldn’t stop spinning around.

"Sister Zhi Zhi, you’re first, you’re really first! I feel like I’m dreaming, totally slapping those marketing accounts in the face!!"

Ji Xizhi sat on the sofa, the joy in her heart had already passed.

After all, before entering the book, she had always been first by a landslide.

Now it’s just doing the same thing as before, the previous joy came from finally being able to contact the tutor.

Looking at Xiao Yuan dancing around, Ji Xizhi replied, "Good luck for next year!"

Xiao Yuan’s swinging arms paused, and her excited expression immediately fell.

She said seriously, "Sister Zhi Zhi, not everyone is a god!"

After speaking, she painfully went to the tea table to consciously review her books.

Thinking, though she’s not a god, she stands beside one now; she shouldn’t back down too much, she must keep studying!

Ji Xizhi’s preliminary exam results were quickly propagated by a wave of attention from Hangxing Entertainment and X Family courses.

Needless to say, President Zheng was already furious to the point of spitting blood.

The founder of X Family courses’ subtle diss was on the hot search headlines all across the internet, fans made GIFs, memes, and parody videos, shared them across major apps, and smacked their faces.

You said Ji Xizhi’s 9.9 course recommendation wasn’t sincere? She’s first in the written exam!

You said Ji Xizhi attacked your course to reduce competitors? Open your eyes and look at this score, gapless first, no opponents!!

You said Ji Xizhi secretly bought your course to study? Do you even deserve it? Your yearly course’s best score in exams was ranked fifty-eighth in prelims!

The founder of X Family courses was utterly socially dead online.

Other course-selling education institutions, seeing Ji Xizhi’s superhuman score, all went crazy too.

Going crazy while trying to contact Ji Xizhi.

This kind of academic god, no matter how much it costs, must be worshipped at our place!!!

Several large educational institutions directly replayed the prior Weibo variety show directors’ battle for talent, fighting till blood and treasure were spent.

So much so that the bystanders who later paid attention to this incident were left dumbfounded seeing these two major casualties side by side.

What kind of person is Ji Xizhi? On one hand, variety show directors fight over her, on the other, exam institutions compete for her!

The entertainment companies wanting to poach Ji Xizhi for a contract also were stunned.

No wonder they couldn’t get through to Ji Xizhi’s phone, no wonder she kept refusing. Even they felt, with these scores, it would be a shame not to quit the industry!

After succeeding in Hangxing Entertainment, Ji Xizhi once again reached the top with her skills.

At first, some people thought the score picture was photoshopped, but soon the official Qing University website published the graduate exam retake list.

The first name on the list was Ji Xizhi.

Authentically and absolutely matching, immediately silencing the doubters online.

Only a few stragglers boldly causing trouble, saying being first in prelims means nothing, there’ve been cases where prelims first fail in re-exams, besides, what if Ji Xizhi cheated for this score! Who knows!

But unfortunately, no one blindly agreed with them anymore.

Everyone had already rushed to Ji Xizhi’s Weibo, starting a frenzy of positivity.

Ji Xizhi’s Weibo soon turned into a pilgrimage site for academic gods.

Those thousand books Ji Xizhi previously gave away on Weibo, no one dared to comment before, now... There are millions of well-wishing comments, increasing in numbers, winning one is like hitting the jackpot!

The re-exam of Qing University was scheduled a few days after the preliminary results were out.

During this period, except for sending an email to the tutor, Ji Xizhi stayed at home preparing for the re-exam, since the re-exam will be an in-person interview at school, and Qing University is in Beijing, Ji Xizhi didn’t need to fly over early, she just needed to prepare in the hotel.

On the re-exam day, she took her materials to the Qing University campus for the re-exam.

Many people came for the re-exam at Qing University, there were only forty admission spots, yet nearly two hundred participated in the re-exam.

When Ji Xizhi arrived, the interviews hadn’t started organizing, the students attending the re-exam were all standing together.

When Ji Xizhi arrived, she still wore a hat and mask.

She wore ordinary clothes, standing in a cornered position, noticing no one.

Ji Xizhi initially planned to check the mentor’s issues on the website when suddenly two boys approached.

One boy said, "I heard this year’s written exam top scorer is a god-like figure, seems to be from the entertainment industry? Did you hear about it? Is it true?!"

The other boy replied, "What? You believe that? I remember someone reported a few days ago, right? It seemed to be a cheat accusation for stealing exam questions!"
