Through the book: The villain’s son’s stand-in

After staying up until one o'clock at noon, Gu Cheng yawned and quickly entered the test number with his fingers to check his score.

"300."

"Your Highness is also 300."

Full marks for both.

Looking at the overall rankings, they and another high-end private school in the college area each have a pair of perfect scores.

However, Gu Cheng didn't care.

As long as they are themselves, there is no need to compare too much.

He sent a message to announce the good news: [Your Highness, we all scored perfect scores and tied for first place in both the individual and team preliminary rounds]

After sending it, he turned off the computer and planned to take a nap in the nap dormitory. Unexpectedly, the computer rang half a minute later.

This is a special note.

Gu Cheng rubbed his eyes and looked at his head.

[Pei Mingxu: Got it, have a good rest. 】

Gu Cheng smiled and fell asleep again.

Retest on Friday, finals on Monday.

All three examinations in the competition were held in Durmston.

Durmston is the oldest prestigious school in the capital city. If it is not included in the finals, it would seem that the event is too stingy.

The semi-finals are still in the form of online and offline question answering.

The main test is the calculation ability of students, and students who are not talented enough in this area and do not work hard enough are screened out.

Most of the tests in the finals are knowledge and theoretical questions.

This year's finals were innovative compared to previous years' question-based competition.

The method used is to draw questions from a question bank, and both parties take turns answering the questions within a time limit.

First, people from different teams will come out in turn.

If there are still people in this team after two rounds, they will enter the next round of answering questions.

If there is no one left, it will be unfortunately eliminated.

Wait until the game is over before ranking.

At the end of the competition, if there is a duel between different teams, the winner will be decided normally, and the final ranking will be determined by the score.

But if the same team competes, the game will be exciting!

"I surrender."

The girl with purple hair looked reluctantly at Gu Cheng, who was smiling and barely breathing, and sadly disappeared into the exam space.

The invigilator took a deep look at Gu Cheng and announced: "Durmston College, Gu Chengsheng."

"Next, there will be a rare group showdown. All invigilators are in place and all candidates can enter the holographic viewing mode."

After saying that, Pei Mingxu was pulled into the finals space by the invigilator.

Pei Mingxu curled his lips slightly and stood opposite Gu Cheng: "I guessed that the person who will compete with me in the end must be you."

Gu Cheng replied: "Your Highness, you probably don't want me to give in to you. In order to show my respect for you, I will go all out!"

Pei Mingxu had a faint fighting spirit in his eyes, and he only replied with four words: "Come here."

"Please prepare both sides and reiterate the rules. Answer the question within five seconds. No matter which party times out or answers incorrectly, the question will be lost."

The invigilator looked at the two people whose bodies were getting tense, and his voice suddenly dropped: "The game begins!"

A question appears on the screen in front of you.

Just listen to the system read out the question board content at a constant speed:

[The distance between Capital Star and the nearest satellite is __]

This question directly tests two knowledge points.

First of all, you need to know the name of the satellite closest to the Capital Star, and remember its specific distance.

Contains the next-level classified subjects of astronomy, geography and mathematics, and basic knowledge of physics.

Gu Cheng: “32.43 kilometers.”

"correct answer!"

The perspective turned to Pei Mingxu.

[The gravity constants of the Capital Star and the Tiangong Star are different__]

Pei Mingxu: "-1.3."

"correct answer."

The first round of questions all revolved around mathematics and astronomy, and the difficulty of the tests was not much different.

The two cope with it easily.

But the further back in the question bank, the more difficult it becomes.

The more pits are set up.

Gu Cheng looked calm and relaxed on the surface, but the pressure in his heart was increasing.

This way of answering questions with one thought of life and one thought of death is really disturbing.

If the mental condition is a little worse, I am afraid that the performance will be abnormal.

But the more this happened, the more calm and composed Gu Cheng became.

Like a dancer among the swords, never looking back, living toward death.

Pei Mingxu also became more and more frustrated, his breasts were tight and his expression was focused.

"The answer is correct! ... Oh, ah! Why are there no questions? The question bank has been maxed out!"

When the invigilator discovered this problem, he was so surprised that he could no longer maintain his dignity as an invigilator.

The students from the holographic perspective were even more agitated.

"The Durmston Genius Class certainly deserves its reputation!"

"Wow, wow, wow, it's maxed out. Star Network will definitely make a fuss today."

"Amazing, amazing, His Highness is great! And his opponent, who is in the same class as him, can actually compete with His Highness, which is awesome!"

"It's a battle! No wonder I can only participate in the math competition!"

"..."

There was a lot of noise outside, but there was peace inside the finals space.

The examiner suddenly appeared, and the invigilator quickly stood up and moved out of the way.

The examiner smiled and praised happily:

"Your performance today impressed me with admiration. I have seen your past achievements. Your excellence is beyond reproach. Your future is destined to be limitless."

After speaking, he glanced at Pei Mingxu with a little regret.

If Pei Mingxu was not a prince, he would definitely be turned back to the Academy to become a student.

Immediately, he set his sights on Gu Cheng again, like a strange old man tempting a child with a lollipop.

"Classmate Gu Cheng, are you interested in studying at the Mathematical Institute? I can accept you as a disciple."

There are many research institutes under the Scientific Research Institute, and the Institute of Mathematics is one of the three main research institutes.

It is a paradise for scientific researchers.

There are also classes under it that are similar to gifted classes, but specialize in one direction.

However, the scientific research direction conflicted with Gu Cheng's planned future, so Gu Cheng politely refused.

The examiner sighed: "I didn't invite anyone. I really failed."

When he said this, he secretly raised his eyes to observe the expressions of the two people.

Seeing that they were unmoved, he gave up completely.

The written examination ended with the team ranking first and the individual competition tying for first place.

The competition lasted for nearly half a day. When the two people walked out of the examination place, the entire campus was quiet.

It's been half an hour since school ended.

When the examiner mentioned the word "disciple" just now, Gu Cheng couldn't help but think of his former ancient literature tutor - Vic Smith.

Perhaps it was the butterfly effect brought about by his rebirth. When he made insinuations about the whereabouts of his teacher, he only got the news that he was researching a secret experiment.

The teachers kept the details secret and seemed not to want to tell him now.

He sighed and was about to ask Pei Mingxu if he wanted to celebrate.

After all, we experienced a big victory today.

But when he turned his head and looked around, there was no one around him.

He suddenly turned around and saw Pei Mingxu weakly leaning against the wall, slumping down like mud.

When Gu Cheng walked over excitedly, Pei Mingxu had already closed his eyes and passed out.

He quickly squatted down and shook Pei Mingxu's shoulders: "Your Highness, Your Highness!"

Seeing that he could no longer respond, Gu Cheng quickly contacted Ruth.

Ruth had been waiting outside the examination venue and rushed over after receiving the news.

Gu Cheng was unwilling to wait and put Pei Mingxu's hand on his shoulder, dragging him up and rushing to the end of the special passage.

"It's okay, not as heavy as my sandbag." Gu Cheng said in a low voice.

At this time, Pei Mingxu moved his fingers, as if he wanted to express something.

But before he could move twice, he was quickly carried by the bodyguards brought by Ruth.

Gradually, Gu Cheng became a small, blurry black dot in his eyes that he struggled to raise, and then disappeared completely.
