Chapter 299 The Despair of Competing on the Same Stage

When the list started rolling, the atmosphere on the scene became tense in vain.

The teams on the list chased after each other, and exclamations and applause broke out from time to time in the auditorium. The tense and enthusiastic atmosphere was even comparable to the game scene in the afternoon under the shadow of Sao Ke.

However, due to some mistakes by the organizers, the list scrolled very fast.

The host couldn't keep up with the speed at which he read the lines. Su Xiaomu in the audience had a feeling that the people on the stage would not be able to catch their breath, and then hold their breath...

I had to interrupt for a while, inserting the singing time of a young lady, and after adjustments, it finally got a lot better.

If it weren't for the huge variability in the last hour, there would be no rule to block the list for one hour.

Therefore, many people who originally ranked dozens of places can jump to dozens of places at once.

The cheers, exclamations, screams and tense atmosphere were much more intense than in the afternoon.

Various screams filled Su Xiaomu's ears from time to time.

"Wow, our school has gone to the front of the queue..."

Su Xiaomu was stunned by what he said, but is there anyone else who came all the way to be an audience?
He really didn't know there was such a thing.

I didn't know that someone came all the way from the next door to the next door to be an audience.

There are also a large number of retired players, retired players who have never been to the world finals (global finals), come here to fulfill their wishes and so on.

Others are chattering.

"Exciting! Rolling the list is the most exciting!"

"My heartbeat almost stopped, can our team win the bronze medal?"

"As long as you don't strike iron, this is the last time we will participate in the finals!" ①
"Hey, do you think the Sao Ke team sitting over there will win the championship?"

"The old man has won six championships in a row!"

"Haha...Have you forgotten the despair you felt when you were dominated by the relaxed and comfortable state of the Saoke team just now?"

"emmm..."

"..."

In the end, the voice became quieter, so it was better not to mention Xiuer Sao Ke.

Captain Su Xiaomu is handsome, tall and straight, with a straight back, handsome demeanor, beautiful eyes, and so talented.

But he is the best in the audience!

MMP!

Su Xiaomu didn't take it seriously, and he didn't realize that even if the seat where he was sitting was not so eye-catching, there were countless eyes shooting over him.

There is a grudge type.

This is because the team may not perform well under the pressure of the Sao visitors.

There are hot ones.

No need to guess, they are all girls.

The further you go, the slower the speed of rolling the list, and the changes in rankings are not particularly drastic.

But there are always sudden exclamations.

When it reached the top [-] rankings, the hustle and bustle of the scene suddenly seemed like a duck being strangled by fate...

There was a loud sound.

Then it disappeared completely and nothing remained.

All the nervousness, enthusiasm, exclamation, and applause disappeared.

Even the host's voice disappeared.

because……

The top of the list of the 42nd ACM-ICPC finals has not changed since No. 16 minutes from the start.

Until now!

At this moment, the rolling list is still beating, but the top of the list is so firm that it seems that it will never move.

It took 1499 minutes!

11 questions!
All killed!

Yes, judging from the current situation, there will be no more unnecessary jumps.

Because it has been long enough, the two, three, four, five and six in the front row have also stopped beating.

However, there was still no sound at this moment, even the Peking University team who submitted and passed the G question within the last 30 seconds did not cheer.

1499 minutes.

All killed!

In contrast, the second-ranked Moscow State University's 9 questions and 1427 minutes are so dazzling.

After a full minute, the cheers shook the sky.

The host said excitedly.

"Congratulations to South China University of Technology Sao Ke team, congratulations Sao Ke team AK!"

"We are very honored, we can witness such a miracle! In the entire history of ACM-ICPC, there are only a few times the experience of AK in the finals..."

The host was really excited and talked a lot.

The audience was even more crazy.

All audiences related to ACM were very excited.

"The organizer is simply not a son of man!"

"That's right, such a big news has been held back for more than two hours."

"It really is Xiu'er! Su Xiaomu is really too much!"

"I immediately submitted the correct answers to the three questions after the ranking was closed, and then I was in a daze, which made everyone feel pressured and it didn't matter."

"We agreed to make a dog together, but you secretly shot AK after lunch!"

"..."

Ning Fenghua knew that Su Xiaomu would do something.

So I wasn't too surprised, I just curled my lips and said hello to the man.

Even Shang Siyu and Chen Jiming are just guessing about Sao AK, not sure.

All excited at this time.

"Student Xiaomu, AK, why didn't you tell us?"

"You didn't ask me either." Su Xiaomu answered lightly.

Soon the awards were presented one by one. Of course, Sao Ke stayed at the end, but no spectators left the field.

Because there is still a little performance after the award ceremony.

What's more, everyone is immersed in joy at this time, and they don't care about leaving the scene.

Gold medalists can take the stage.

In turn, it was the turn of the fourth Peking University team.

The captain of the Peking University held the medal and certificate, and then said.

"Thank you ACM, thank the sponsor, thank you."

He really has nothing to say. Peking University's performance today can be said to have counterattacked all the way to the gold medal team.

Then there are two teams of Maozi.

The first is the Faculty of Physics and Technology.

The captain said as soon as he came on stage.

"The process of participating in the same finals as the Sao Ke team, especially the Sao Ke team captain Mr. Su Xiaomu, is hopeless."

"I can't even say the word humiliation."

"I think, Mr. Su Xiaomu just wants to put more pressure on all our contestants as much as possible, hoping that everyone can break through!"

Although it is in Russian, the meaning of the translation and the tone of the speaker are deeply sympathetic.

Once upon a time, Maozi was the despair of all contestants participating in the ACM Finals.

I didn't expect such words to come out of Maozi's mouth.

Ranked second, the captain of Moscow State University, the only team that passed nine questions, was also on stage.

"Thank you Captain Su Xiaomu for putting us under pressure!"

"This feeling of competing on the same stage is really hopeless!"

"I never thought that I would meet such a strong team this time. This time, the number of questions was reduced to 11, but Captain Su was able to complete it in 4 hours, and it was so common. It was really disappointing!"

The whole audience was stupefied.

The teams of these two old guys are praising the Saoke team and Su Xiaomu...

Then it was finally the Sauls' turn to take the stage.

When Su Xiaomu stepped onto the stage under the lights, everyone's eyes immediately focused on this handsome boy who glowed.

Waiting for Su Xiaomu's speech.

This person who easily AKed.

Su Xiaomu showed his face, showing a smile in line with the preferences of all the women present, and said softly: "..."

①: ACM-ICPC stipulates that each team can only participate in 2 finals and 5 regional competitions at most, and there are certain age restrictions and the like.
