Chapter 513: The First Breakpoint! [1 Update]
This year, there were 3,000 candidates in this round of interviews, and only 300 of them were able to take the written test.
In the second round of written tests, another 200 candidates were eliminated, and only 100 of them were able to enter Shenzhou University.
After layers of screening, they were all elites among the elites.
As the six o'clock announcement time approached, more and more candidates came to wait.
To Kang Lejia's surprise, she did not see Ye Wanlan and Lin Wenli in the crowd.
Could it be that they knew they would not pass and simply did not come?
They were very self-aware.
Kang Lejia snorted coldly and continued to wait.
Time passed by minute by minute, and suddenly-
"Ding--!!!"
The bronze bell in the bell tower was struck, and it was six o'clock.
At the same time, a new page was refreshed on the bulletin board, which was the list of candidates who passed the interview.
Kang Lejia's expression could not hide her excitement, and she looked up impatiently.
The list was released in order of ranking, and everyone could see the words on the first line -
No.1: Lin Wenli, male, 18, Shenzhou, Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School, 95.45 points!
There were exclamations from below.
"It's actually a Shenzhou person? Shenzhou people haven't passed the interview for a long time, right?"
"And he's still the first place, why haven't I heard of this Shenzhou person before? A dark horse that suddenly came out?"
"I remember that there haven't been high scores above 95 points in the interviews for several years. This Shenzhou person is incredible."
"Oh, what a pity! I'm only 0.5 points away from the 300th place!"
"There will be another chance next year! As long as I'm not over 20 years old, I can continue to participate."
Although it's only 0.5 points, the lower the ranking, the tighter the score, and 0.1 points will eliminate countless people.
The voices of amazement at Lin Wenli's score came one after another, filling the eardrums, and it was hard for the Kang family not to hear it.
While Mr. Kang and Mrs. Kang were shocked, their faces were very ugly.
In their opinion, the education Lin Wenli received was inferior to the one Kang family gave Kang Lejia.
But Lin Wenli's score of 95.45 was like a bucket of cold water poured over their heads, making them feel cold all over.
At this moment, they could no longer say anything about not coming to the Kang family for help.
Old Master Kang slowly exhaled and said with great difficulty: "Lejia, have you found your name?"
Kang Lejia did not answer. She stared at Lin Wenli's name blankly, and her brain began to be congested.
She has been working hard for Shenzhou University, so she did not take the college entrance examination route.
Compared with other people in the Kang family, Kang Lejia knows more clearly what it means to get a score of more than 95 in the interview.
The last candidate who got a score of more than 95 in the interview has now entered the Wan Guo Group and become the general manager of a department.
Lin Wenli's strength is so strong? !
But how can the resources given to him by the Jiangcheng Lin family be comparable to hers?
Kang Lejia was unwilling to admit that her talent and hard work were not as good as Lin Wenli's, but what broke her defense was that she was not even in the top 300, and her score was three points lower than the 300th place!
"Lejia?" Mrs. Kang called again, her expression was even uglier, and her voice was cold, "You didn't pass the interview?"
"Grandma, I..." Kang Lejia came back to her senses and couldn't help shuddering, "I..."
"Forget it." Mr. Kang still felt sorry for Kang Lejia, waved his hand and said, "If you can't go to Shenzhou University, you can go to Global University as a second choice."
Global University is the second-ranked university in the Global Center and is also at the forefront in the world, but the gap with Shenzhou University is very large.
"I'm not blaming Lejia, I'm..." Mrs. Kang sighed heavily, "Now, the Jiangcheng Lin family may mock us behind our backs!"
Where should she put her old face?
But things have come to this point, and nothing can help.
Kang Lejia's face was pale, his steps were weak, and he left Shenzhou University.
**
The reason why Ye Wanlan did not take Lin Wenli to see the list was because Ling Yunzhan had posted the list in the group the moment the ranking was released.
[Shenzhou University Gatekeeper]: Brother Lin has passed the interview and can continue to take the written test tomorrow.
[Crazy Scientist]: The interview is over, and I am also free, but I have to continue to work overtime. Alas, people are really not like cattle and horses. Whether it is cattle plowing the land or horses pulling carts, at least there is time to rest.
[Ghost Fighter]: Speaking of which, Sister Niu Ma has not come out for a long time since she suddenly jumped out last time. Where did the International Group send her to go on a mission? It can't be some lost ancient continent, right?
[Crazy Scientist]: Can you think of something good? Don't you really want Sister Niu Ma to live a good life?
[Ghost Fighter]: Of course not, please read the group rules of this group!
[Group Rules]: Sister YN, Sister Youqian and Sister Niuma are the supreme leaders of this group. Please keep this in mind!
Ye Wanlan: "..."
This was also the first time she noticed this group rule.
[YN]: Is anyone free? If so, please meet me.
Thirty minutes later, the five people gathered together.
"Darian hasn't woken up yet?" Ye Xingli asked, "I didn't see him in the group this afternoon."
"He's probably still dizzy." Ling Yunzhan shrugged, "Don't worry about him."
Kristine was too lazy to talk to the two of them, and just asked Ye Tuanlan: "What's the important matter in such a hurry?"
"I do have one more request when I come to the Global Center." Ye Banlan was silent for a moment and said, "I would like to ask you all to help me keep an eye on the whereabouts of King Yan's Sword."
"The sword of King Yan?" Ye Xingli raised his head suddenly, "The legendary weapon of King Yan?"
"It's not a legend." Ye Banlan said lightly, "The sword of King Yan is actually an unknown sword. Because it is the sword of King Yan, it is called the sword of King Yan."
Christine was obviously very interested in the history of China. She nodded slightly and said, "King Yan is known as the 'Sword and Spear' and is a God of War."
"I know, I know." Wen Chaosheng cleared his throat, "When I was a freshman, I taught it in history class!"
Chinese history is one of the compulsory subjects in all departments of China University.
"I have searched many places in China, but there is no trace of the Yanwang Sword." Ye Banlan said slowly, "I think there is a high possibility that it is in the Global Center."
"Okay." Christine nodded, "I will pay attention, but if it's not at the Global Center..."
Ye Xingli hesitated for a moment: "You can't really be in some lost ancient continent, right?"
The existence of Atlantis is almost certain.
But in fact, no one has really been to this place. They only know that there are many secrets hidden under the Nanling Sea.
The technology of the Global Center has conquered the world, but it is still unable to explore the Nanling Sea.
As soon as these words came out, Ye Banlan's expression froze slightly, and she murmured: "It's not impossible."
But if it were really in Atlantis, things would be even worse.
"Don't worry." Kristen said, "There is strength in numbers. As long as something exists, we will definitely be able to find it."
Ye Banglan hummed, then turned around and asked Ye Xingli: "Is there any new research progress on the Stone of Atlantis?"
"Yes." Ye Xingli's expression suddenly became nervous, "Because it is an unknown element, through the study of the stone, it can be deduced that the creatures that accompany this stone every day are much stronger than us."
Christine: “Speak humanly.”
"To put it simply, this kind of creature is superior to us in terms of speed, strength or other aspects." Ye Xingli said, "We need to rely on martial arts training, medicine, etc. to broaden our bodies, but they don't."
Ye Banglan's eyes darkened slightly.
This is consistent with what Lin Weilan described.
"So interesting?" Ling Yunzhan touched his chin, "Then do we still need to thank them for not hurting us?"
"I will continue to research." Ye Xingli said seriously, "When there are new discoveries, I will notify you as soon as possible."

At the same time, on the other side of the main city.
"You mean, the interviewer at Shenzhou University this time is from Shenzhou? From the five major families in Yunjing?" The middle-aged man frowned and asked, "The surname is Lin...can't be from the Lin family in Yunjing, right?"
"After checking, it's just a family separation." The young man knelt down on one knee, "Besides, Lin Wenli is male and cannot be cultivated by this family."
Who doesn't know that the Yunjing Lin family values women, and any descendant who has no daughters will be expelled from the family.
The middle-aged man's frown relaxed: "It seems that geniuses can come out of separate families. It's a pity that geniuses who don't belong to us would be better off perish."
Since there is no background or backstage, it couldn't be easier for Lin Wenli to disappear quietly from the Global Center.
