Feng Yue picked it up and tore it up swiftly.
This action finally enraged Irina and all her admirers around her, regardless of gender.
“Enough!” Irina stepped forward, her eyes icy cold, “You have no right to let him tear up my photo!”
For her, this was nothing short of humiliation.
Teng Yunmeng sneered, pointing to the young man with brown hair, “He also had no right to ruin God Ying’s sachet. A tooth for a tooth, what, can’t handle it now?”
Irina’s chest heaved with evident anger.
“Irina, don’t be mad.” A boy beside her spoke up coldly, “I’ve already called the regional manager. They humiliated our classmate, they better not think about drawing lots tomorrow.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Yue grew tense, “God Ying.”
“Don’t be afraid,” Ying Zijin was calm from start to finish, “Just wait.”
The manager arrived quickly.
Upon entering, he didn’t ask what had happened, but pointed straight at Ying Zijin and her group, impatiently, “As competition participants, you dare to start fights and cause trouble, take them away, to the oversight office.”
Ying Zijin turned around, her tone indifferent, “Do you think because we are in a foreign country, without anyone to back us up, no connections, that we are easy to bully?”
Hearing this, the manager felt a bit embarrassed, but did not retort.
That was indeed his thought.
Everyone has their biases.
Given the choice between Irina’s side and Ying Zijin’s side, he would definitely lean toward Irina. How could he possibly take care of foreigners?
Of course, these words couldn’t be said openly.
The manager merely signaled with his eyes to the several guards behind him, signaling them to seize Ying Zijin and her group.
Irina’s expression was cold and she did not intervene.
At that moment, a voice came from outside the door, “Who wants to lay a hand on our students from Hua Country?”
The tension Feng Yue was feeling relaxed, “Professor Zuo Li.”
Before coming here, they had notified Zuo Li.
Following Professor Zuo Li, several other professors were also present, all with continental faces.
It was clear they had been in the middle of a meeting and had rushed over in a hurry.
“Professor Zuo Li,” Teng Yunmeng stepped forward and recounted the incident.
“Good, very good,” Professor Zuo Li, after hearing it, went from furious to laughing bitterly, “Looking down on us, bullying us, is that it? In this international final, not a single person from Hua Country will participate. Play by yourselves.”
“And if Imperial Capital University makes any new discoveries in research, we will also not be attending.”
Upon these words, all of the students from Yilan Public School, including Irina, were stunned.
They indeed looked down on Eastern people, but they had to acknowledge the strength of Imperial Capital University.
In the previous century, Imperial Capital University could hardly be called a top-tier world university.
But since the 21st century, Imperial Capital University had developed too rapidly.
Its rate of rise was so fast, no other institution could compare.
Although Imperial Capital University didn’t rank as high as Helga University, its prospects for development were definitely better.
Without any mishaps, in a few more years, Imperial Capital University would definitely replace Helga University as the second top university in the world.
Professor Zuo Li was also an exemplary figure among the young professors, with good relations with quite a few international professors.
Imperial Capital University was also very protective of its own people. Him speaking out like this indeed could represent Imperial Capital University.
This put the professors who had accompanied him in an untenable position.
“Please, Professor Zuo, calm yourself,” an elderly professor hurriedly interceded, “We certainly didn’t handle this matter well and have shown disrespect to your party. Please rest assured that we will handle this strictly.”
“The first one to cause trouble, from Yilan Public School, will have his enrollment revoked, and there will be compensation to your side.”
“Our students need compensation?” Professor Zuo Li let out another cold laugh, “The reality is, our students have been bullied, and you still want to pin the blame on them.”
The professors were at a loss for words and could only apologize, “Professor Zuo, we will certainly make you satisfied. This manager does not represent our attitude, and it’s our lack of oversight. We will report this to the oversight office immediately and have him dismissed.”
Listedning, the manager broke into a cold sweat; his mouth opened and closed, his face pale.
Professor Zuo Li just looked at Ying Zijin, “Classmate Ying, do you agree?”
Only then did Ying Zijin let go, wiped her hands with an alcohol swab, “Let’s go back to sleep.”
“She’s agreed, so we won’t pursue the matter,” said Professor Zuo Li, “I don’t want this to happen again. We can be fierce for our students.”
The professors nodded repeatedly, escorting Professor Zuo Li and the others out.
Then they exchanged glances and shook their heads with sighs.
**
The morning of May 15th.
At six o’clock, the competitors were all up.
Ying Zijin took out several medicine packs and distributed them to Teng Yunmeng, Feng Yue, and the others.
“If you encounter this kind of situation again, you can scatter the contents of this medicine pack.”
She knew Feng Yue and the others were not unwilling to fight back, they just lacked the capacity.
The powder in this medicine pack can cause an opponent to lose mobility and blinded for a short time.
To deal with villains, you have to be even more villainous.
After Ying Zijin handed out the sachets, a group of people proceeded to the competition venue.
The lots drawn yesterday dictated that competitors could only participate in either the team or individual events.
“Zijin, I’m in the individual event,” Teng Yunmeng said in disappointment, “How come you’re in the team event? This means we won’t be able to compete in the same arena.”
The individual and team events began simultaneously, but the formats were different.
The individual event was a live quiz scored by machines.
The team event presented more complex problems that required collaboration among six team members.
While the team event’s discussion was underway, the individual event would start first.
“It’s fine,” Ying Zijin said, appearing nonchalant. “In the end, the scores are calculated together.”
However, compared to the team event, it was indeed much easier to pull ahead in the individual event.
In the individual event, two competitors faced each other and answered questions separately.
If one finished early, the other had to stop answering questions as well, irrespective of remaining time.
This could lead to a significant gap in scores.
Thus, when players learned that the global leaderboard’s number one would not be attending the competition, everyone, except for those from Hua Country, let out a sigh of relief.
Everybody knew that the answering speed of the leaderboard’s number one was downright abnormal.
“Feng Yue’s in the individual event too,” Teng Yunmeng sighed. “It looks like we’ll be separated after all.”
Ying Zijin glanced at the competitors from Yilan Public School: “Watch out for Irina.”
Teng Yunmeng looked grave and nodded.
She followed Feng Yue and several other students to another venue for the individual event.
At 9:30 AM, the ISC international finals finally officially began.
Journalists from Chuguang Media and Hua Country State Television arrived at the scene and started to broadcast live.
As the team event site drew lots, the first round of the individual event had already commenced.
Netizens from Hua Country, emotionally drained from anticipating the ISC international finals, couldn’t wait any longer.
As soon as the live stream began, the barrage of comments flew wildly.
[Ahhhh, why didn’t God Ying draw the individual event? It’s so much more exciting to watch individual events.]
[Yeah, team competition just involves discussion first and then handing in the experimental results toward the end—nothing exciting like individual events.]
[That’s not the most important thing, the most important is we won’t get to see God Ying’s immortal beauty, whine.]
But there was no helping it, the draw results were final.
In the end, a specific algorithm would be used to calculate the total scores for each country and region.
At the conclusion of the competition, there would not only be individual rankings but also national rankings.
The latter were more important.
As it happened, the first match was between Hua Country and Country Y.
Representing Hua Country was contestant number 19, who, like Teng Yunmeng, had qualified directly for the international contest.
His opponent was the child prodigy lauded by everyone in Oceania, Irina.
But the match ended much quicker than anyone anticipated, almost before the chief judge could react.
The individual event round comprised twenty questions with a time limit of fifteen minutes.
However, not even five minutes had passed before Irina completed all the questions.
Contestant number 19 had only reached the sixth question.
But because Irina had finished answering early, he was also forced to stop.
The scores soon appeared on the big screen.
20:6
All the national broadcast cameras focused on these two numbers.
Irina was slightly bowing her head, an unmasked sneer and disdain on her lips.
[My god, could the gap be any bigger?]
[Number 19 is from one of our country’s top three high schools, how could this happen…]

[Heh, you see? Even if Ying Zijin had been in the individual event, she wouldn’t have been a match for Irina.]
[A prodigy is a prodigy, let me say it again, Hua Country is no good [smile]]
“Irina! Irina!!!”
The audience on-site went wild, chanting Irina’s name over and over.
Although it was just the first match, the momentum was already building.
Irina raised her head without glancing at contestant number 19, but rather at all the competitors.
Taking the microphone, a mocking smile spread across her face, “This isn’t aimed at anyone specifically, it’s targeted at all of you—you are all—”
“Trash.”
