I thought I was a jerk

Xue Ci's ability test passed smoothly.

The completion score was staggeringly high, but it didn't attract more attention.After all, no matter what, if you can't even pass this kind of pre-match quiz, you will be too bad as Fang Lao's disciple.

It is not known how the contestants selected Xue Ci, but since a certain day, more people have been training with him before the PDL competition.

They were obviously a little embarrassed to treat Xue Ci, a young man who was about to be their son, but their attitude quickly calmed down, but they rarely cooperated with Xue Ci in experiments.

It is said to be pre-match training, but how many people can actually train these predators in the chip field?At most, it is enough to search for some previous assessment content, let these geniuses freely discuss the confrontation, provide the best laboratory environment and perfect equipment, and let them conduct high-intensity reaction memory training.

In this process, although freedom is not restricted, it is considered a semi-closed environment to the outside world.That is to say, most of the people engaged in chip research are too "home" people who can stay in the laboratory for ten days and half a month without going out. If there is a decision-making that needs to be contacted, the direct conference call is very patient.Under such circumstances, Xue Ci, who had to ask for leave to leave the training base, was very conspicuous.

At first they were not used to it, but after these days of training, these people who are a generation taller than Xue Ci are also used to having such a junior in this trip.Xue Ci was diligent on weekdays, seeing that his talent and knowledge were also very good, he couldn't help feeling a little pity for his talent, staring at Xue Ci was similar to staring at his own junior.Hearing that he was going to ask for leave to leave the base, he asked sternly, "Where are you going?"

"Xiao Xue, I heard that you are going to ask for leave?"

"Young people must be patient! Why are you going out suddenly?"

"Xiao Xue, why do you want to go out at this stage? It can't be a date..."

Being questioned all the way, Xue Ci formed a subconscious reaction, and honestly responded to every elder: "I'm going to school to ask for leave."

The hottest season is over, and with the end of summer, the holidays are coming to an end.As a sophomore who was promoted to Hua University this year, the other PDL participants were most worried about whether their projects would be put on hold and the progress would be slow, and Xue Ci also had to consider that the rigorous chip department should not skip classes casually .

"..." For a while, those seniors were silent.

"...Well, let's go as soon as possible."

Xue Ci used to work with Mr. Fang on projects, so he was very familiar with asking for leave. He had already approved long-term leave since the beginning of school, and he should ask for leave frequently in the future.

But when the head of the department approved Xue Ci's leave note again, he still showed a slightly subtle expression.

This may be the most legitimate request for leave that he has approved over the years...

"Pre-competition training for PDL competition".

As one of the researchers in the field of chips, although he already knew that this year's PDL was very exaggerated and bizarre, there was a contestant, and that contestant was a student of Huada University.But Xue Ci actually came here to ask for a leave of absence, which inevitably made him feel like "the bloody storm is by my side".

During this period of time, the controversy caused by Xue Ci was really too great. Many people felt that Mrs. Fang was too indulgent and doting on her apprentice, and she was not careful enough to use such things as PDL competition places to polish her disciples.Even if Xue Ci passed the pre-competition test and proved that his basic ability is not bad, it still failed to quell the restless emotions and rumors that ignited like flames.

——It should be able to pass. After all, Fang Laodi's disciples will not be far behind.However, the questions in the PDL arena are different from those of the small-scale tests. If Xue Ci is beaten by the opponent after playing, it will not only lose the face of Huaguo's chip research, but the result will also directly affect the follow-up resources. tilt.Although Elder Fang's status is high, but precisely because he is in his position and has to fulfill his responsibilities, if he makes a mistake, he will bear even greater pressure and consequences.

After thinking about it like this, the head of the department hesitated a bit when he looked at the student who was receiving the leave note with downcast eyes, and reminded him a few words.

Xue Ci didn't know if he understood the meaning.

He is still the same as when he came, obedient and quiet, like a little prince who knows nothing about the world in an ivory tower.

"Okay, thank you teacher." He said.

Fortunately, the environment of the training base is semi-enclosed, no matter how much evil wind blows outside, it will not affect Xue Ci.

There are psychiatrists and counselors in the base, and they all pay a lot of attention to Xue Ci, a controversial young man. After all, unprecedented pressure falls on him.But fortunately, Xue Ci didn't seem to be affected much.Even though letters of criticism from some scholars protested were almost sent to the training base, and many upper-level leaders expressed their dissatisfaction, they still failed to shake Xue Ci's quota for the competition.He was firmly selected for the PDL and headed to the competition venue.

This time, the venue was in Huaguo, and it happened to be in Beijing, so the itinerary was not too tiring.Competitors from other countries have also arrived ahead of schedule and checked into their respective building halls. In a few days, lots will be drawn to determine the order of the competition.

Huaguo has always held such competitions with the concept of "friendship first, competition second".Even though he never relents during the competition, but before the start, his attitude towards these competitors was as good as friends he hadn't seen for many years.

For example, the delegation of country G in front of me.

The leading man had a golden back and a pale complexion. His facial features were straight and deep, but his brows were furrowed with a sense of calm and prestige.

He shook hands with Dr. Shu, the team leader representing the country of Hua. When he spoke, his voice was low and his tongue was very heavy. It was not the common language of country G, but an ancient pronunciation, which had been abandoned for many years with its uncommon and complicated pronunciation. The special language pattern, even the simultaneous interpreters around him couldn't translate it well, and cast a slightly puzzled look.

Dr. Shu was very calm, as if he didn't notice the deliberately changed pronunciation of the other party, and communicated in the ancient language of country G without any language barriers. On the young man who couldn't see his face clearly, he asked slightly maliciously:

'Is that your assistant? '

Dr. Shu paused for a moment, then replied fluently: 'No, he is our official team member. '

The other party laughed without any sincerity: "I've always heard that people from Huaguo look very young. This time, it's an eye-opener. He really looks young. Is he an adult?" '

That gloating tone made Dr. Shu frown slightly.

Apparently this time their internal controversy was somehow spread to the outside world. Even the delegation of country G was very aware of it, and came here to ridicule it.

'He's a great member. As the captain, Dr. Shu said with a straight face, he seemed to have no desire to continue communicating, and turned slightly to leave.

And the other party chuckled, and commented slowly: "At least he looks very pleasing to the eye." '

This exchange was not pleasant, and the members of the two parties walked in two distinct directions.

Xue Ci followed behind many seniors, covered and protected intentionally or unintentionally, but when he passed the delegation of country G, his steps suddenly stopped.He said to him in a more "standard" than the other party's aristocrat of country G, or more complicated, gorgeous, and poetry-like ancient grammar: "Thank you for your compliment, sir.My game will be more pleasing to your eyes. '

The surprise is only momentary.

It turns out that he can speak G mandarin, so what he said just now was heard by this young man?

The representative of country G quickly restrained his surprised expression, and did not take advantage of the guilt of being caught. He smiled and replied very reservedly and proudly: "We will wait and see."

·

PDL pays more attention to individual ability than any other competition to ensure that there are no shortcomings in the team, because the proportion of turn-based competition is particularly large in the competition score.

This involves a strategic issue in battle.Although strength always comes first, strategy can help them win more easily.In the current situation, the most applicable model is the "Tian Ji horse racing style" battle.The weakest boy in their team went to fight against the strongest captain among the representatives of country G, as a game that was discarded.

But in this way, Xue Ci's defeat is inevitable.

Others don't care who Xue Ci is fighting against, the outcome is what they care most about.As the most controversial player, Xue Ci was under more doubts before the start of the PDL, and Xue Ci was under more pressure than any of them to lose a game.

Xue Ci is a very good boy.

His future achievements are bound to be limitless. Even if he still lacks experience, it would be too bad to be ruined here.

Dr. Shu thought about it, and crossed out the originally expected lineup.

He speculated several order of appearance based on the strength of the opponent.Then Xue Ci was arranged in the third game where it was the least likely to meet a strong opponent, and it was not a critical round.In this way, Xue Ci's pressure is the least, and the strength of the G country representatives he meets should be mediocre.

This was already the best arrangement he could make, and Xue Ci had to deal with it by himself.

Dr. Shu furrowed his brows in thought.

We met the next day, already on the field.The referee announced the lineups of the two teams. As soon as it was made public, Dr. Shu showed a somewhat ugly look of surprise.

The opponent's lineup was obviously drawn out of order, with no rules to follow and very random.That's all, but the captain of country G happened to be in the third game.

He bumped into Xue Ci anyway!

Dr. Shu's heart was complicated, and he looked for Xue Ci, wanting to comfort him with a word or two.

In the delegation of country G, others also learned an ancient Chinese saying from their captain.

"Is this 'killing a chicken with a bull's knife'?" They asked seriously.

The captain of country G straightened his collar, without any disturbance on his face.He had just finished saying "wait and see" to that kid, and he was going to teach him personally today.
