Everyone's gaze fell onto the twenty-nine people on stage. There were some they were very familiar with, such as Guo Xie, Murong Weiwei, Tang Xi, Su Ye, and of course, the unfamiliar Qin An, Pang Xin, Li Gu, and so on.

However, the most surprising thing was not Guo Xie, but Nangong Lingmo, this mysterious person who had never been to the classroom since he entered the school.

"That person is Nangong Lingmo. Why is she so young? Could it be that she is also a high school student?" The girl beside Lin Xiao whispered.

"Let's take a look at the secondary selection's questions. Li Xunyu is indeed extraordinary." Seventh National Male Middle School's Principal whispered.

"Qiao Mu, do you still have confidence in joining these contestants?" After watching for about 30 minutes, Lin Xiao asked as he looked at the sweating Qiao Mu.

"The secondary school must have set up an examination room. Otherwise, how could these students answer the questions that would not even appear in the last year's competition correctly? There's definitely a problem." Out of all the questions scrolled on the big screen, he found that nearly twenty percent of them were unable to be answered quickly.

"They don't have a question bank. They are the ones who picked the most mistakes from the supreme quantum computer, the 10,000 questions with the highest accuracy rate." The principal of No. 9 High School, Cao Xinglong, softly said, "Old Man Li, are you trying to take first place in the competition as well?"

"Old Cao, let's sit together after the secondary school's preliminaries are over. You don't want to see us fail twice in a row in front of that old fogey Li, right?" The Principal of Sunshine Junior High said with squinted eyes.

Cao Xinglong lightly nodded his head. Following that, the other principals and leaders of the other schools also formed an alliance with Seventh National Male Middle School.

"Beep!" The red light in front of Nangong Lingmo lit up. This meant that this unremarkable young lady in front of him had taken the initiative to complete the hundred questions.

"Damn, looks like bad bro is here to take a walk. Why is he still typing on the keyboard? He doesn't seem to be doing any more questions, why is he typing so fast?" Qian Duoduo muttered as he turned on the red light and glanced at Guo Xie who was standing not far away.

"What's bad brother doing? He's already finished nine people, why hasn't he finished yet?" Murong Weiwei frowned and said softly.

"Xiao Xi, Scoundrel is probably going to be eliminated in the first round. Your 10,000 credits is wasted." Su Ye whispered to Tang Xi, who had finished her ninth match.

"Ol 'Four, prepare to take the money. That Guo Jiu is still working on his questions. He's already twenty-two. He probably won't even make it past the first round, haha." Jia Peng said with a smile.

"Look at what second brother said, it's not that I'm preparing to take money, it's that we're preparing to take money." Qin Highdragon said with a smile. As of the start of the preliminaries, the total bet had exceeded 1.3 billion. If Guo Tai couldn't enter the first round, then this money would belong to the four brothers.

Roughly five minutes later, the red lights of the 28 people on the stage all lit up. Guodan Jiu was still rapidly typing on the keyboard.

"Cough, cough, cough. Student Guo Xie, are you still not done?" A female student who served in the preliminaries walked up to Guo Huai and asked in a low voice.

"There are too many questions." Guo Huai said loudly while typing on the keyboard.

"Li, President Li, may I trouble you to come up? There's a problem with Guo Xie's computer." The female student said loudly to Li Xunyu, who had already entered a light sleep.

"What's wrong with that? If you can't do it then just get eliminated. Hurry up and enter the next round, what other problems can there be?" Li Xunyu said impatiently.

"Four-eyed, I see. Your idol has finished the first round of questions for everyone. He hasn't even finished it yet and is only able to answer half of the last questions correctly. He is also using less time than your idol." The youth looked at him and said with a smile, "Your ten thousand yuan was wasted."

"What is this kid doing? No matter how difficult the question is, he should have already finished the 100 questions by now." Lin Shuang could not help but stand up and walk up to the stage.

"President Li, hurry up and come up. There's a problem with Guo's computer." The moment Lin Shuang's gaze fell on Guo Huai's laptop, she was completely shocked.

"Little girl Lin, who asked Guo Que to be a student of your class? But this is the preliminaries, no one is allowed to go through the back door." As Li Xunyu spoke, he walked step by step towards the platform.

"Jia Yuntao, get the hell over here." Li Xunyu merely glanced at Guo Xie's laptop, then shouted loudly.

"Department Head Jia, the principal seems to be calling for you." A staff member of the Logistics Department whispered to the sleeping Jia Yuntao.

"What is the principal looking for me for?" When Jia Yuntao heard the words' Principal ', no one would have thought that he would jump onto the main platform. This truly proved that he was a desperate person and that he had jumped over a wall.

"Jia Yuntao, is that how your logistics work?" Li Xunyu said with his eyes wide open.

"There are no automatic alarms installed on this computer." Jia Yuntao's face was about to hit the ground as he softly said.

"Let's see how it goes. If you screw up in this selection, you can just roll up and screw off." With that said, Li Xunyu walked down the stage.

"Old Man Li, what are you doing? The first round of the competition is already over. Announce the results." Cao Xinglong impolitely shouted.

"The first round is over. I shall now announce the names of those who have entered the next round." In about ten minutes, the time allotted for the first round of preliminaries to start was calculated.

"Class 7, Li Gu, 24 minutes 13 seconds. Class 11, Qin Feng, 23 minutes 59 seconds. Class 9, King Yuan, 23 minutes 57 seconds … …" Six classes, Su Ye, 18 minutes and 11 seconds. Nine classes, You Wandering, 18 minutes and 6 seconds. Tang Xi, 17 minutes and 45 seconds. Six classes, Qian Duoduo, 15 minutes and 37 seconds. Jia Yuntao recited the 19 names in one breath.

"Since the list of the top 20 has been announced, let's begin the second round." Cao Xinglong said loudly.

"This time's first round's first place winner is senior class one's boss, 9 minutes and 48 seconds." After he finished speaking, Jia Yuntao ignored all the commotion below the stage and directly asked the eight eliminated students to leave the platform, allowing Guo Xie to sit in one of the seats on the platform.
