Chapter 399: The Release of Results
Just as Mo Zhu had expected, the method she had thought of was indeed the fastest. The test papers were handed to her and she sorted out the thoughts and directions for the questions. Xing Meng and Jiang Yu were responsible for listing the steps needed to solve each question on the paper in detail. Finally, Meng Ran and Zhang Qi would complete the calculations.
Time passed minute by minute. Under everyone’s concerted efforts, Mo Zhu’s group answered the questions of the competition very quickly. In just half an hour, they finished the questions that the organizing committee had originally set to take three hours.
Raising her hand to signal the invigilator that they were prepared to hand in the paper, Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows confidently and put down the pen in her hand.
Seeing the girl’s confident appearance, although Huo Xuan knew that Mo Zhu’s Mathematics wasn’t very good, he was still very touched by the girl’s attitude of coming from afar to participate in the competition and win honor for the country and the school.
The competition format of the team competition was different from the individual competition. For the individual competition, the teacher-in-charge will release the results of all the participating students at the same time after they have finished reviewing them and tabulating the results. As for the team competition, the team would hand in their papers on the spot after they have completed them and the teacher-in-charge will check the steps and answers for each question. Thereafter, their scores would be announced right away.
When Mo Zhu’s group announced the submission of the papers, a staff member immediately went forward to take away their answer sheet. A few minutes later, the results were announced on the spot. Apart from some small details that were not handled well, the formulas and answers for every question in the entire paper were correct!
Then, the judges of the various countries displayed the results they had in mind.
Hence, the people in the audience, be it the media who were holding the cameras or the subordinates sent by the various families, all saw the perfect score written in bright red in the judges’ hands.
The results were announced on the big screen at the same time. When the number 100 appeared, Luo Nan and Li Xiao immediately laughed happily.
With such a high score in the team competition, as long as everyone’s total score in the individual competition did not act as a burden, the first place in the Mathematical Olympiad this time would definitely be Country Z!
Thinking of this, the two of them were so excited that tears welled up in their eyes. Li Xiao was satisfied with winning glory for Jingyang High School. He had always wanted the children to bring glory to the school.
In comparison, Luo Nan’s concern was much larger. In the past few years, the new generation of young geniuses from various overseas countries has become increasingly stronger. In the past two years, they had held many similar competitions one after another, but be it physics, chemistry, or Mathematics, Country Z had never gotten the top three results. With such high marks in the Mathematics competition this time, with a rough look, there was really a possibility for them to obtain the top three.
Ten minutes later, groups began to hand in their papers one after another. The papers were handed to the judges one by one, and the scores were announced on the big screen one after another.
Seeing that everyone’s scores were generally much lower than Mo Zhu’s group, Li Xiao clenched his fists excitedly, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his palms.
This time, when he came to Country N to participate in the finals, he did not have high hopes for Class Eight, the group that had rushed into the finals by luck at the last minute. He only hoped that everyone could learn some knowledge and get to know the top students of the various universities in Beijing. Now that he saw such high results in the team competition, he could not believe that these high-spirited youths on the field were actually from Class Eight!
One hand after another was raised. Almost an hour later, the bell rang in the venue. The invigilator held the microphone and announced loudly that the time for the team competition was up. Immediately after, a staff member neatly collected the answers from the remaining teams that had yet to complete the questions.
