Chapter 234: Examination (1/2)
When Zi Yi walked into the building, she did not expect to see a large group standing in the hall.
Besides the dozens of directors she met the previous time, there were also some other people.
At her arrival, all of them looked at Zi Yi with a complicated gaze.
One of them asked, “Student Zi, have you really thought it through, taking the examinations of so many subjects today?”
Zi Yi nodded confidently. “Yes.”
Another director shook his head and politely advised. “Student Zi, let’s put it this way. Your situation is very unique and it is impossible for the university to easily allow such a special case. Therefore, there will be numerous out of syllabus questions in today’s examination. If you are unable to score the passing mark, you can only follow our arrangements.”
Zi Yi still had a confident expression. “Okay.”
They did not expect her to be so firm despite all that they’ve said and so, no one continued to advise her further.
Following this, one of them led Zi Yi upstairs.
Similar to the previous time, she came to the second floor. However, the room she entered this time was a big conference room.
There was only a single table and chair, two middle-aged men and 360-degree surveillance.
The expressions of those two middle-aged men looked very stern. One of them was wearing glasses and the other had a sharp gaze.
The person who led her here stopped at the door and said, “Student Zi, you can enter. These two are your invigilators for today.”
Having said that, he turned to leave while Zi Yi entered the room.
She went over to the table of the invigilators and greeted them with a calm expression. “Good morning.”
The bespectacled middle-aged man spoke up. “My name is Chu Hong and he is Shen Wenyuan.”
He did not reveal their position to her.
However, Zi Yi had browsed through the names and positions of all the directors when she got back and knew that they were both Vice-Principal.
Chu Hong continued to say, “You will be taking eight consecutive exams today, each of which lasts for an hour. You will only have a ten minute break time between each paper and half an hour break for lunch at noon. The exam will end at 9.30 p.m. You can choose to give up if you are unable to endure such a high-intensity pace.”
Shen Wenyuan added on. “If you choose to give up, you can only follow the school regulations.”
Zi Yi did not expect the examination to last so long and was about to speak up.
However, Shen Wenyuan continued to speak with a straight face. “One should act according to one’s ability. Even if you are a genius, you have to understand that knowledge is slowly accumulated, and learning several subjects at a time might not produce good results. At that time, you might end up not excelling in any. Would you be able to live up to the expectations of the teachers who taught you then?”
After Shen Wenyuan said his piece, Chu Hong added. “Student Zi, you should have understood our Metropolis University’s culture of producing talented individuals. Even though you are the first to score full marks in our Independent Enrollment exam, it can only be considered your first step in M.Uni. A single discipline here covers a wide range of knowledge and there are many who have excelled in a single discipline and graduated to become a talent.
In the end, Shen Wenyuan said, “We’ll give you the final ten minutes to think about it. Once you take the exam, there are no chances of regrets.”
Seeing that they have finally finished their long-winded talk, she said, “I won’t regret it.”
The two Vice-Principals: “…”
They seem to have encountered a stubborn student today.
Shen Wenyuan’s expression became even sharper. “If that’s the case, then let us begin.”
“Hold on, I wish to shorten the examination time. I only need 25 minutes for each paper.”
“Are you sure?” Both the invigilators were shaking their heads in disappointment deep down.
Not only was this student ambitious, but she also had impractical thoughts.
“I’m sure.”
“Alright then.”
