Genius of the Rules-Style System

Chapter 29: Chapter 29 The Demeanor of a Superior Person!

In the morning.

The enthusiasm of the classmates was still high.

During the break, several more people came to sign up. Zhao Yi conscientiously noted down their names. As time passed, more people began to ask about the selection process.

Zhao Yi had mentioned the selection yesterday. freeweɓnovel.cøm

The whole senior year knew that to get into the ’Competition Team’, you had to pass a selection process, but there were no details about the selection yet.

At the end of the third morning class, Sun Liang came into the classroom with a frustrated look. He shouted out loud, "Zhao Yi, do you know what people are saying?"

"They’re saying I will definitely make it into the competition team. They’re saying you’re only letting your friends in. It’s absolutely infuriating!"

"Do they look down on me? Are they saying I’m in because of favoritism?"

Sun Liang’s voice was full of indignation, "I’ve already said, you’re not that kind of person. Even if I do get in, it’s definitely because of my abilities!"

The whole class turned to look at Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi casually waved his hand, "Are you just going to believe whatever they say? Are you stupid or something?"

"So, what should I say?"

Zhao Yi slapped the desk and shouted, "What to say! What to say! A gentleman uses his fists not his mouth, only women use words! If you hear someone else say it again, throw a chair at him."

Sun Liang’s face turned dark upon hearing this.

"If it really comes to a fight, just come back to the classroom and find Heroine Lin!"

Zhao Yi pointed at Lin Xiaoqing and said, "With Heroine Lin here, what’s there to be afraid of!"

Lin Xiaoqing rolled her eyes and ignored Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi chuckled unconcernedly, realizing that he should do something about the situation.

Reputation does matter!

In fact, he really didn’t care who made it into the competition team and didn’t think that deciding who was selected was a big deal.

But there it was.

The decision was naturally his to make.

If he hadn’t solved all the problems, there’s no way their school would have made it into the top four, and there wouldn’t have been any talk of ’being on TV’ either.

The school also thought so, which is why they let them decide who gets into the team.

Moreover, he didn’t intend to select talented individuals. Even He Ronghua, the best student, only scored 48 out of 200. Lin Xiaoqing, who read a lot of supplementary books, only scored just below 81. As can be seen from the knowledge level of ordinary students, it was almost impossible to contribute to the competition finals.

At noon.

Zhao Yi found Lin Xiaoqing, Sun Li, and He Ronghua. He brought up the issue of selecting new members of the team. He immediately excluded himself, "Too many people have signed up, it’s too much of a hassle. This is what I think, the selection of new members should be decided by the three of you."

The three of them looked at each other in surprise.

Zhao Yi continued, "You’ve seen the current situation. Whoever we let in or reject is going to cause trouble. We should just arrange a selection test."

"Each of you come up with a question, creating a test paper. You can take the contents of the reference book given by Teacher Wang. The difficulty level of the question should be high."

"We have a Chinese class in the afternoon, I will tell Teacher Wang about this. After the questions are made, we can directly go to print them. We will find a classroom in the evening to conduct the test."

"Whoever scores highest, gets in!"

Lin Xiaoqing, deep in thought, furrowed her eyebrows and asked, "But how can we ensure there won’t be any leaks?" Her gaze drifted to He Ronghua as she spoke.

"I won’t..."

He Ronghua weakly expressed his dissatisfaction.

"You will!"

Sun Li said disdainfully, "Everyone comes to Zhao Yi to sign up because you and Sun Jiali said that Zhao Yi could decide who gets in the team!"

"Even though you’re the top student, Sun Jiali didn’t do anything. She just asked a few questions in a cutesy voice and you spilled everything."

He Ronghua was so embarrassed his face turned red.

Zhao Yi dismissed it with a wave of his hand, "That’s easy to solve, each of you takes a book and comes up with ten questions each, then print sixty copies separately."

"During the selection test, we will combine the three sets of questions."

"The preliminary competition was the same. Even if someone leaks the questions, it will only be one-third."

Lin Xiaoqing nodded in approval, "That’s a good idea!"

Sun Li seemed a little eager, "I’ve been in school for so many years and I’ve never written a question for someone else."

Zhao Yi nodded, "Then it’s decided, from now on, it’s all up to the three of you. I’m not involved."

With that, he walked away.

Behind him.

Sun Li’s eyes didn’t even blink, she admired and said, "Private talks among our class said that Zhao Yi would definitely let Sun Liang into the team."

"Who would have thought!"

"Zhao Yi is not biased at all. He lets us create the test and make the decision."

"I feel like something is off?"

Lin Xiaoqing spoke to herself skeptically, "Something is not right, there must be a problem somewhere!"

...

Zhao Yi really washed his hands off it all.

The only thing he did was to inform Teacher Wang Ping about the selection process.

Wang Ping was all for it.

During the Chinese class, Wang Ping simply gave them self-study time, allowing Lin Xiaoqing, Sun Li, and He Ronghua to create questions using reference books. She even helped them print out the questions in the printing room.

The Chinese class was the last lesson of the day.

The elite class still had to attend evening self-study, and during the almost one hour break, the students who signed up for the selection test flocked to the fourth-floor classroom to participate in this student-organized selection examination.

That’s when Zhao Yi appeared.

He merely served as a ’symbol,’ sitting on the podium to proctor the exam.

In reality, there was no need for proctoring because the test was not linked to any textbook, and everyone in the classroom was a competitor, so nobody would show their answers to others.

Zhao Yi only just saw the test paper.

Lin Xiaoqing was right in front of him creating questions, but with Xiaoqing’s character, leaking questions was virtually impossible. Not to mention Sun Li and He Ronghua, they were seated too far away.

"Take a look, see how many you can get right?"

Lin Xiaoqing asked with some anticipation, "The questions I came up with, they’re all things I don’t know." What she was hoping for was not that Zhao Yi would solve them, but that he would be thoroughly stumped.

"Well, let’s see!"

Zhao Yi picked up the paper, stood up lazily, and began to pace thoughtfully.

Two steps to the left, three to the right, and four back to the left.

A step back.

Continue.

Zhao Yi stared at the paper in his hands all the while, walking back and forth quite normally. It was only a few minutes before he put the paper back where he found it.

"Forget it, they don’t really need my help here." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"You guys take care of this, I’m going to go see if anyone is playing football."

With that, Zhao Yi left the classroom.

Lin Xiaoqing laughed and said to Sun Li, "He was definitely stumped."

"I couldn’t answer a lot of questions on this paper either."

Sun Li nodded in understanding.

There were thirty multiple-choice questions in total, and the test time was twenty minutes.

As soon as the time was up.

Sun Li, Lin Xiaoqing, and He Ronghua immediately started grading the papers together.

They were very serious about grading.

A big crowd of students flocked around to watch, followed by sighs of regret—

"What kind of questions are these? I only got eleven right!"

"I only got five right..."

"These questions are totally inhuman, looks like getting into the competition team is entirely down to luck!"

"At least it’s fair!"

At that moment, Lin Xiaoqing picked up a test paper and exclaimed in surprise, "Twenty-six correct answers? From Sun Liang?"

"Let me see! Let me see!"

"He must have cheated!"

"Did he know the questions beforehand?"

These interrogative remarks ignited Lin Xiaoqing and Sun Li’s anger, and they spat fire at the questioning students.

"We are the ones who set the questions separately, even if there was a chance, do you think we would tell Sun Liang?"

"Me neither, I didn’t say anything either." He Ronghua weakly added his support.

"We three came up with the questions during the Chinese class, straight from the book. Teacher Wang helped us print them, are you saying Teacher Wang helped Sun Liang cheat?"

"How can you talk like that! Just because you didn’t do well, you assume others must be cheating? Even if you scored high, I wouldn’t agree to have you on the team!"

Meanwhile, on the football field.

Zhao Yi was standing up to the defender’s defense, kicking the ball into the goal with a confident smile on his face.

"Huff...huff..."

Playing football is genuinely draining!

Gazing at the distant teaching building, he couldn’t help but sigh, "They finish their work and step aside, hiding their accomplishments and fame, this is the demeanor of a truly great person!"

"I’ve maxed out my ’Sports Coin,’ it’s been such a fulfilling day!"
