The Genius Doctor, My Wife, Is Valiant

Chapter 1010: 1010: The Committee’s Tricks

Most people weren’t interested in the competition, since they couldn’t comprehend the in-depth knowledge of chemistry that was needed to understand the questions and they only wanted to know the result. However, as the competition got heated, the audience present started getting nervous as well.

Those from Country Z weren’t especially smart when it came to chemistry. After two rounds, they went from 500 to top 200. There were only 4 people left coming from Country Z, and one of them was Ling Siqi. She might not have been the brightest in every round and barely passed the qualifications, but she was still there. The light that represented her was still brightly lit.

So, all the audience from Country Z who was watching the competition started getting nervous. They were worried that Ling Siqi and Dan Yue would be eliminated.

After two simple rounds, it was time for a quick fire round.

Each participant had to fight for their chance at answering the question and only those who got the correct answer would be allowed to enter the next round.

The interesting part about this competition was that in regular competitions, most participants would have already known the rules, but for this particular one, they had no idea what the rules were. They would only know the rules of each round right before it began.

In the third round, there were only 16 lights lit up, and all of them were blue in color.

The remaining 200 participants left on stage had a bad feeling about it.

Even the audience knew that something bad was about to happen.

This elimination round was crazy!

The first one was focused on eliminating 300 out of 500 of them. The second round eliminated 100 of them. Just when they thought that the next one would be the same to get the top 10, the announcer told them that only 16 of them would make it into the next round.

All of them were dumbfounded.

Why was it only 16? What about the top 100? Top 50? Had they forgotten about it?

......

Then, the announcer slowly explained the rules to them. The third round would be a quick answer session. Those who answered the most would then become the top 16. Once the top 16 had been selected, they would also get the top 50 amongst all the 100 participants left.

In the end, only 50 of them would be eliminated.

The audience from Country Z instantly went wild. There were only 4 participants left, since there were only 16 of them who would be selected. There was a possibility that they would lose all of their representatives.

Forget about the audience, even the professors from Qing Da and Zhou Da were getting nervous.

In the beginning, they were only hoping for their students to get into the top 50, but as there was more attention from the public and the media, they naturally wanted their students to do better.

At the same time, they were well aware of the standards of their students. They knew that it would be extremely difficult for their students to be a part of the top 16.

.

The competition finally started.

The question was shown on the screen, and after that, the participants would be allowed to answer. If they got it right, they would score one point; if they answered it incorrectly, one point would be deducted.

This meant that the participants may be losing two points in one session. They would rather not answer than get an incorrect answer, because they would have to get two correct answers once they got one wrong. This way, they would have to answer more than 1 correct one.

Since most of them were smart people, many soon noticed that there was a huge bug.

The announcer never told them how many questions there were in total.

There may be 200, and even if each of them answered one, they would all have the same score.

However, all of them knew that this was not possible. There wouldn’t be 200 questions in total.

Most of the questions given were difficult.

As the announcer read out the question, it was a difficult one about combining different elements together. They would also have to add a few more elements in the process in order for it to work.
