"Teacher, I've finished." A boy raised his hand and prepared to hand over his scroll. Everyone had already learned from the wise man Lin Shuci that he was a potential rising star in the finals, from the mysterious Y Province, and his name was Yu Fengnian.

The first person to hand in the paper was not Li Li! Shen Jinzhu, Li Yan and others were shocked. This surprised them more than Li Li's perfect answers every time. After all, they were used to Li Li's extraordinary wisdom. Now that she acted like an ordinary person, they felt uncomfortable.

Chen Zhirun took the scroll from Yu Fengnian and quickly glanced through it, his eyes sharp. A subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he praised: "Well done."

Then, he marked 20 points on the scroll, and Yu Fengnian's smile froze. "Teacher, I don't understand..."

"Your answer is correct, but there are some flaws in the derivation process and it is accidental. Think about it again." Chen Zhirun interrupted him and said gently.

"Okay, thank you, instructor." Yu Fengnian suppressed his emotions and returned to his seat to continue studying.

"Teacher, I've finished it too." Another seeded player, Feng Qinwei from H Province, won national honors with Chu Hai last year. Rumor has it that his performance was not his true strength. He is a competitor that cannot be ignored.

"Not bad, 25 points." Feng Qinwei did not get full marks either. He did not ask the reason. He silently put away the scroll, broke the original train of thought, and started a new exploration.

Li Li finally raised her hand, but she just asked: "Teacher, can you give me another piece of magic drawing paper?"

It's over. Even the math goddess Li Li needs drawing paper? Shen Jinzhu thought to herself. She had been in the math competition class with Li Li for so long, but she had never seen Li Li use drawing paper when solving problems. It was as if there was a magical calculation device in her mind that knew how to calculate as soon as she put pen to paper.

Thinking of this, Shen Jinzhu felt that it was not shameful for him to be unable to answer the question, and he felt a little comforted.

Another five minutes passed, and only half of the hourglass by the river was left. Li Yan, Wen Ziyuan, Chu Hai, and Li Li's roommates had finished answering the questions. Even Zhou Rui submitted her answer, although she herself did not understand it. After all, participation is the most important thing.

Finally, Li Li raised her hand to hand in the paper. She handed over the scroll full of sketches. Shen Jinzhu was confused. Why did Li Li have sketches?

"This is..." Chen Zhirun flipped through the densely packed papers, his pupils gradually dilated, "Wait."

He put down the scroll and put on his glasses. Although he was only slightly nearsighted, he felt as if his eyes were blurry. Otherwise, how could he see that the girl's test paper listed six ways to solve the problem! And he, as the one who set the test, only gave three!

What’s even more surprising is that Li Li also innovated on the topic and asked a question in the opposite direction!

Chen Zhirun's hands trembled slightly. He had taught so many winter colleges, but this was the first time someone gave him a question. However, he had to admit that this question not only surpassed his original idea, but also had a profound meaning. It was simply ingenious!

The long silence was broken. He took a deep breath and stamped 30+10 on Li Li's magic scroll. "These extra ten points are for your insight into the final mystery, which even I could not solve."

Li Li nodded contentedly and put away the scroll. Although her hands were sore from writing the complicated spells, it was all worth it.

Shen Jinzhu looked at the 30+10 on Li Li's scroll and wept softly. Master Li, is it true that a full score can no longer satisfy her pursuit?

"It's amazing, Sister Li." Zhou Rui exclaimed, imitating her brother's tone, holding Li Li's scroll as if she was admiring a rare treasure.

Chu Hai felt a strange comfort in his heart. As expected, the strong are still strong and always unexpected.

Xiao Jiangjiang hurried over, and Chen Zhirun waved his hand to stop him, "Okay, there's no need to continue what's unfinished."

"We will take a short break for 20 minutes, and then we will explain the scroll. This time I would like Li Li to reveal the answer to everyone. Li Li, please stand up and let everyone know you."

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing who Li Li was. Li Li had no choice but to stand up and accept everyone's scrutiny. She sighed secretly, thinking that if she had known this would happen, she should not have attracted so much attention.

Some were confused, some had surprise in their eyes, and some who had collected information on elites from magic schools all over felt as if struck by thunder. Wasn't Li Li the genius who had achieved perfect results in both the S Province preliminaries and provincial competitions?

Could it be that she got full marks again this time? !

Li Li did not get full marks, but she surpassed the level of full marks!

After a short break, everyone gathered around and stared at the bright 30+10 on Li Li's scroll. They fell into a silence of self-doubt. Really, were they facing the same mysterious magic circle as her? Why could she write down several pages of runes, while they could only rack their brains to squeeze out a few words of answer...

Chen Zhirun hurried back to the competition command center and slammed the parchment in his hand heavily on the table.

"Immediately find me all the information about a candidate named Li Li."

Five instructors, including Chen Zhirun, were responsible for teaching algebra, combinatorial magic, geometric configuration, and numerology theory. They were talking in the office and were all puzzled when they heard what he said. "What's wrong, instructor Chen? You look so hurried."

Mr. Li, who teaches algebra: "Li Li, this name sounds familiar."

"Do you know her?" Chen Zhirun asked hurriedly. During the winter camp every year, in order to treat every student fairly, he rarely checked their background information in advance.

"Is it the Li Li from Province S?" Teacher Wang, who teaches combinatorial magic, suddenly clapped his hands and remembered something.

"Yes, that's right, it's her. I said the name sounded familiar."

"This girl is extraordinary. She scored full marks in both the preliminaries and provincial competitions."

"I think only Feng Qinwei and Yu Fengnian can compete with her."

"Li Yan, who is on the same team with Li Li, is also very outstanding. Lancheng in Province S has really produced some potential new stars this time."

Chen Zhirun shook his head slowly, "No, no one can compare to her."

"Oh, Old Chen, I've never seen you praise someone like this." Professor Zhang, who teaches mathematical theory, thought he was joking and said jokingly.

Professor Sun, who was in charge of geometry, saw that Chen Zhirun had a serious face and felt that something was wrong. He picked up the parchment that Chen Zhirun had left on the table.

"This...this...who designed this magic circle?" Teacher Sun's voice trembled.

Teacher Li and Teacher Wang came closer to take a look, "I'll take a look too."...

The runes on the manuscript paper were like flying dragons and snakes, majestic and powerful, but no one had time to appreciate them. They all kept their eyes on the topic, carefully pondering its mysteries.

"Is this the puzzle set by the elf girl?"

"I think it is quite similar to Mr. Chen's topic."

Chen Zhirun smiled faintly, his eyes gleaming with the fiery passion of treasure hunting, "That's exactly how it solved the six-fold mystery of my game, and threw out a new challenge."

"Hahaha, Lord Jiang actually had a day when he was overtaken by his apprentice!" Instructor Wang clapped his hands and laughed.

"It seems this is not a joke." Teacher Zhang muttered to himself, then pulled out the parchment and began to calculate quickly. He was an obsessed magic mathematician. When he encountered an excellent puzzle, he would solve it even if he had to stay up all day and night and forget to sleep.

"Hey... this is for me. It doesn't matter if you solved it. If you want to solve the problem, go find her in person!" Chen Zhirun took back the rune paper.

"Stingy! Just go find her!"

Twenty minutes later, Li Li stepped onto the stage and explained the puzzle to everyone. She explained it in a simple and easy-to-understand way, and she mentioned all kinds of magical mathematical rules at will. Everyone was fascinated and wrote quickly, greedily recording every subtle detail.

"Do you think she looks like Jiang Hou in the magic competition class?" Shen Jinzhu asked Li Yan quietly from the audience.

Li Yan smiled. Indeed, this scene was extremely familiar, as if the scale of the magic competition class had expanded. She was the master no matter where she was. It just moved from the secret realm of Lancheng to the imperial capital, and expanded from more than 20 people to more than 60 people.

"Does everyone understand? If not, I will explain it in another way." Li Li's explanation was clear and concise. The audience members were not fools and nodded to show that they understood.

Even Zhou Rui understood it. She couldn't help but think that if she had been taught by a mentor like Li Li since childhood, she would not have fallen to this point.

Yu Fengnian sneered in his heart: I have to admit that Li Li is indeed gifted in mathematics and magic, but she seems naive in other areas. Does she think that this will win others' gratitude? She seems to have forgotten that the people sitting in the audience are all competitors, not classmates who are as close as family.

However, he had no intention of reminding her that this was beneficial to him, so why should he stop it?

Chen Zhirun's mind was full of that puzzle. He constructed many ideas in his mind, but none of them fit. His admiration for Li Li increased.

The first day of study ended quickly. Everyone was exhausted. Lin Shuci cried out that she was hungry and lay weakly on the table.

"Anyone want to go to the cafeteria?"

Huaqing Academy caters to the tastes of students from all over the country by setting up 16 canteens that offer dishes from eight major schools. It also carefully arranges Linjiang Food Passes for them.

"I'm hungry too. Let's go together. Rui'er, do you want to come?" Lan Xinyu suggested.

Zhou Rui was about to agree, but Li Li stopped her, "Don't go, your brother will bring you food later."

Her brother? Zhou Rui wondered, would he be so kind? And how come she didn't know about this?

"Okay, you guys go ahead. I'm not going."

Why did Zhou Rui's brother send food to her through Li Li? Even if they met last night, they were not that close, right? Lan Xinyu thought about Zhou Rui's dress and daily life, Li Li could not be...

After everyone went out, Li Li shook her phone and said, "Let's go get some food."

"No, would my brother really go out of his way to send me food? I find it a little hard to believe." Zhou Rui quickly followed.

The two came to the magic school gate closest to their dormitory. This school gate was located in a secluded place, and few students came in and out. A black magic carriage was stationary there, flashing a mysterious light.

"Hey, when did my brother buy this carriage?" Zhou Rui asked in confusion.

The car window slowly opened, "Fifth...Fifth Brother." Zhou Rui was tongue-tied. Why was it Jiangnan?

"What's wrong? Am I not your brother?" Jiang Nan saw that she was nervous and teased her on purpose. When Jiang Hou was a child, he was fearless, so why did he become timid when he grew up?

"Yes, yes, of course you are my brother." Zhou Rui wanted to cry but had no tears. If she had known this would happen, she would have just gone to the cafeteria to eat something.

Li Li found it funny that Zhou Ye and Zhou Rui, the brother and sister, were like mice seeing a cat when they saw Jiangnan.

"Take it, these are all the ones you like." Jiangnan handed Li Li a wooden lunch box with the word "Yu Lan" carved on it using ancient magic runes, exuding a faint magical aura.

Zhou Rui was flattered that Fifth Brother actually knew her taste preferences. It turned out that Jiangnan had someone check her ordering records at Yu Lan Restaurant.

"The school has a magic cafeteria, don't send it next time." Li Li took the lunch box and said. Jiangnan's notice had already been sent when Jiang Hou approached Huaqing College, leaving her no chance to refuse.

How could the fifth son of the Jiang family have so much free time? And Jiang Jian personally delivered the meal.

Jiang Nan is certainly not idle. With the huge Jiang family, Junyu Group and other magic industries he controls, it is not enough to describe him as being busy all the time.

Watching the two people leave, Jiangnan leaned back on the carriage seat, his body relaxed and sank, he closed his eyes, and sighed slightly, almost silently.

Yuanzhou and Aye both said that he was very good to Li Li. They had never seen him treat anyone so attentively. Was it because she saved Jiang Cheng and Ling You? No, was it because she was smart and beautiful? It didn't seem to be the case. There were girls of the same age in the family, but he just thought they were noisy.

Even he himself doesn't know the reason.

It's really obsessed!
