130 Peerless Genius? (1/2)
Impossible! How can Zhou Wen fish out a coin, while I can't? Li Xuan's expression was one of disbelief.
However, the results of this option were set in stone. Li Xuan couldn't even fish out a single coin, putting his result at zero. Even if he received a perfect score on the other three options, there was no way he could squeeze into the top ten.
Li Xuan felt a sense of regret. If he hadn't been careless and bore with it, he could have taken out the coin. After all, with the Immortal God of War Life Providence, his hand wouldn't be crippled.
One false step will lead to everlasting grief! Li Xuan nearly cried.
Zhou Wen successfully passed the subsequent tests. Other than crossing the paper bridge at a slower speed, he obtained a perfect score on the other three options.
Instantly, the entire school broke out into a flurry of discussion. People were trying to find out more about Zhou Wen. A freshman at the Mortal stage had actually received three 10s and one 9. They were basically certain that he could enter the top ten. The results were really shocking.
Although Wang Lu, An Jing, and Feng Qiuyan were freshmen, they had already advanced to the Legendary stage. It was understandable for them to have such results. It was shocking for Zhou Wen, who was at the Mortal stage, to obtain such results.
Instantly, the reputation of the peerless genius Zhou Wen spread throughout the school, but there were also teachers who had their doubts.
They had seen their fair share of geniuses, but none of them could achieve such results at the Mortal stage.
The person who had the greatest suspicions was Wang Fei. She had wanted Zhou Wen to be stirred up by the comprehensive test and see if he could pull himself together, but to her surprise, Zhou Wen had managed to enter the top ten and even obtained the qualifications to enter Providence Palace. She thought this was unacceptable.
However, all the tests were carried out in front of everyone. Zhou Wen wasn't the first or the last one. People before and after him used the same equipment, so there wasn't any evidence to explain it away with cheating.
\”It doesn't make sense… This doesn't make sense… Why did I only get three 9s… Yet, you obtained three 10s and a 9…\” Li Xuan really couldn't accept this outcome.
In fact, Li Xuan wasn't the only one who couldn't accept it. Zhou Wen also knew that his results were absolutely problematic. On the Strength test, Zhou Wen knew very well that he couldn't lift the tenth stone tripod cauldron; yet, he had managed to raise it in the end. Furthermore, he felt that the tenth stone tripod wasn't any heavier than the ninth. It was impossible that there wasn't something fishy about it.
How could Zhou Wen know that electromagnetic devices were installed at the bottom of the stone cauldron and the platform beneath them? Zheng Tianlun could control the power needed to lift the stone cauldron to a certain extent.
The other tests had also been tampered with. However, they were done in an extremely unnoticeable fashion. Even the teachers did not know that the venue had already been tampered with during the setup.
After the comprehensive test ended, the venue was dismantled, so no one would realize anything.
All of this was something Zheng Tianlun had actually prepared for himself, hoping to use these methods to enter the top ten, but after he was exposed by Wei Ge, he didn't dare continue with the tampering. This ended up benefiting Zhou Wen.
This resulted in Zhou Wen inexplicably gaining the reputation of a genius. When Wei Ge specially came to congratulate him, he even winked at him, making Zhou Wen, who had originally suspected Wei Ge, confirm his theory.
Indeed, it was Wei Ge who tampered with it. But why did he do that? Is it to rope in a freshman to join the student council? Zhou Wen was perplexed.
