Rebirth in the Spirit World, the Goddess's Brilliant Counterattack

Li Li gently rubbed her tired wrists and then solved the first two questions. At this time, the magic clock in the examination room pointed to 10 o'clock noon.

Chen Zhirun stared at the psychic screen in the second examination room. When he saw Li Li put down her pen, he smiled with relief, but then his nerves tensed up again.

Li Li, who was severely criticized yesterday, behaved herself this time. She did not hand in her paper early and remained patient until the end of the exam.

Chen Zhirun gritted her teeth and ignored the other mentors' gloating. It was okay. At least it was rare for her to be able to calm down.

At 1:30 p.m., the exam ended. Many candidates had flipped through several pages of rune paper but still could not answer the third question. When the test papers were collected, they lay on the table and cried helplessly.

"Lili, wuwuwu, today's questions are so scary!" Li Li walked out of the examination room and Li Yanshuang came out to greet her in tears.

Li Li patted her shoulder gently, "It's okay, it's a bit tricky."

Even Li Li said it was difficult? Li Yanshuang asked tearfully, "Have you figured it out?"

After a brief silence, "…solved it."

Li Yanshuang cried even harder.

Immediately afterwards, Li Yan, Chu Hai and Feng Qinwei also walked out of the examination room with solemn expressions.

For the last question, although Li Yan and Feng Qinwei tried to answer it, they were not sure at all, while Chu Hai managed to put together a few answers with great difficulty.

"Sister Li, how do we solve the last question?" Chu Hai lamented.

They just heard the examiners discussing privately that this last question was the most difficult in the history of the Magic Olympiad. Why was it so unfortunate that it fell on them?

"Two key elements." Li Li raised two fingers. "One is the cycle period N, and the other is the maximum path deviation angle. If you understand these two, solving the problem will be a piece of cake."

Everyone was smart, and after hearing what he said, they all suddenly understood and fell into deep thought.

“Clap, clap, clap.” Applause rang out. “You really are the most powerful opponent I have identified.”

Li Li followed the voice and saw the handsome young man from Country D team.

Simon's deep blue eyes were full of admiration. He spent half an hour pondering over the question before carefully writing down the answer. He never expected that Li Li could see through the core of it at a glance.

What is strength? Where can we find our enemies? Is this child indulging in a mysterious fantasy?

"The trial has come to an end, and we are waiting for good news about the outcome." Simon admitted that Li Li was extremely powerful, but he firmly believed that he would not be inferior to her and was full of expectations for the final outcome.

"Hmm? What do you mean?" What kind of mystery is hidden in his words?

Before Simon left, members of the Mguo team arrived one after another.

"Don't cry, little oriental girl. It's normal to fail in the exam." Bernie consoled in a strange tone.

He thought he was superior and suggested, "If you apologize to me now, I can pretend that I never made the bet with you."

"No need, the bet remains in effect." Li Li said indifferently.

"What bet?"

Simon turned his head to ask Leon, and Leon quietly revealed the gambling between the Mguo team and Li Li.

Simon looked at Bernie with a strange look in his eyes. Where did he get the courage to gamble with Li? Has madness taken over his mind?

It is true that the ignorant are fearless.

"What are you looking at?" Bernie's eyes widened.

Simon shook his head slightly, "How ridiculous."

Li Li suggested with a headache: "Let's go." This group of people seemed to have unspeakable troubles.

Chen Zhirun had already returned to the dormitory to wait. Seeing that everyone looked unhappy, he stopped mentioning Li Li's nap in the examination room and quickly comforted her: "It's all in the past now. Don't worry about it."

He and Professor Wang had just seen the test questions. The difficulty of the last question was so great that he was unsure whether these young people could solve it.

Professor Wang: "If you can't solve it, others may not be able to solve it." Although it is inappropriate, it is true.

“Who said we can’t solve it?” Chu Hai retorted.

There was a gleam in Chen Zhirun's eyes. Could it be that they really succeeded in solving the problem?

Feng Qinwei: "The answer has been given, but whether it is correct or not is unknown."

"..."

It doesn’t matter, at least there is still hope, Chen Zhirun comforted himself and looked at his leader again with expectation. Professor Wang was also full of expectations.

Li Li nodded as expected.

"There's a chance of winning!" Chen Zhirun excitedly pumped his fist. Li Li nodded, and victory was almost half secured.

Professor Wang: "Thank you for your hard work, let's enjoy a delicious meal tonight!"

"Great! Will you treat us?" Chu Hai immediately put aside his previous displeasure.

Professor Wang rolled his eyes gracefully, "The funding for the competition!"

The seven-member team marched towards the Chinese restaurant outside the University of Dun City.

Going abroad to fight the epidemic: "Why do we have to taste Chinese food when we are far away from home!"

"Are you sure you want to try the dishes here?" Li Yanshuang asked doubtfully.

Chu Hai recalled the menu of the cafeteria at Dun City University and fell silent. At lunch yesterday, they ordered a dish called "Looking Up at the Stars", which had a tempting name, but what was served was a simplified pizza with three sardines with wide eyes on it, as if staring at them.

Everyone's pupils trembled on the spot.

"Let's have Chinese food." Chu Hai compromised helplessly.

In Rguo, Chinese food is regarded as high-end cuisine and is very expensive, especially for several growing young people who have a big appetite. Fortunately, the upper class provided sufficient funds, so everyone enjoyed a sumptuous meal.

Ever since the mysterious omen appeared, all the worries and gloom have disappeared during this meal. Now, all that is left is to wait and settle quietly.

IMOR exams are judged by the arbitration committee in person, and because the next day is the honor awarding ceremony and sealing night, the grading work starts like magic on the day the candidates complete the test.

"Andre, you finally showed up."

In the secret study of the Arbitration Committee, the man who was buried in the magic rune scroll raised his head, his eyes flashing with surprise as if he had found a treasure.

Andre nodded slightly. He had just returned from the magic apprentices' class. "How is it going?"

He was asking about the results of the current competition. The man named Andre was the dean of Dun City Magic Academy who had a brief conversation with Li Li in the Arcane Library. As the organizer of this IMOR, he was naturally also a member of the arbitration committee.

However, he was always tired of cumbersome etiquette and had applied to Master Smith to participate only in the final stage of file review.

The man shook his head. "The difficulty of the math puzzles this time is unprecedented. Many apprentices got a blank on the last question."

"That's their challenge." Andre's face was calm and there was no mercy in it.

What is not mentioned is that the final puzzle was the one he insisted on including.

The monitoring barrier was quietly opened, and the six review mages each performed their duties. One person was responsible for reviewing a puzzle, and Andre was the reviewer responsible for the last question.

"Give it to me." Andre took the paper with the first five questions already graded.

The names on the volumes have been sealed, and any additional markings will be considered spell fraud, so the reviewers can only see the apprentices' solutions.

Andre examined the papers one after another calmly, feeling increasingly frustrated. The score for the last question was extremely bleak, and he skillfully marked zeros one by one.

“This solves part of the problem.” Andre stopped writing, but unfortunately the follow-up went off track, so he wrote down a 3 with regret.

Andre shook his head. It was a rare 3-pointer, and he actually felt a little comforted. At least he scored.

"Hmm?" Andre's pen stopped and he frowned as he looked carefully at the test paper in front of him.

"The idea is correct and the steps are similar, not bad." Andre immediately happily gave 5 points on the file.

It turned out that someone could solve it. Andre's slightly tired spirit was lifted at this moment. He reviewed the previous questions that had been graded, and all of them had full marks. He nodded with satisfaction.

The full score is 42 points, and getting 40 points is already an extremely outstanding performance. Moreover, even in previous years, the difficult Mathematical Olympiad questions this year rarely exceeded 38 points.

Andre put this test paper aside and continued to review the next one.

The first thing that caught Andre's attention was the neatness of the test paper. "The handwriting was quite beautiful."

The elegant and lively magic runes bring joy to the heart, and the answer area for the last question is densely packed.

"Wait, this..." Andre calmed down and looked at it carefully...

Without violating the essence of the proposition, this paper reveals the following principle of fantasy equivalence: first, the invisible rabbit is endowed with mysterious magic, enabling it to manipulate the secret of the detector; second, as a result, hunters may fall into a perceptual illusion in certain situations...

Andre's pupils widened and he stared at the light parchment in his hand in disbelief. This student actually solved the puzzle perfectly!

And the magic path he used was completely different from theirs!

Andre took a few deep breaths, calmed his pounding heart, and continued reading. Wait, there was actually an answer sheet hidden at the back.

"The second solution?!" Andre exclaimed, unable to suppress his inner shock, "How is this possible?!"

The instructors who were marking the papers all looked up, "What's wrong, Andre?"

What happened that shocked the usually calm Andre so much?

"Wait, let me confirm it again." Andre felt that his thoughts were as chaotic as a hurricane, and he tried his best to calm down.

The instructors gathered around, "What is this?"

"Two solutions?!"

"How can it be!"

The spacious academy instantly became bustling.

Andre's hands were shaking as he held the test paper. Two completely different interpretations of magic! What an outstanding magic apprentice!

His eyes slid to the words at the end, "Not enough space..."

What does this mean? Andre's breathing became rapid. Could she have another solution? No, this is too absurd. But this idea has been lingering in his mind like a spell.

He hurriedly checked her previous test scores, and every one of them was full marks!

Including this last question, it would be a complete victory, with a perfect score of 42 points!
