These hundred people, aside from a few huskies mixed into the wolf pack, were all individuals with extensive skills and experience in learning.

For instance, everyone had devised similar strategies when memorizing the numbers.

And most of them had developed winning strategies.

That's why so many people only flipped one card.

It was because they all knew that writing was definitely faster than memorizing.

And there was a fixed one-minute cooldown time in between.

If they wanted to be as quick as possible, they couldn't waste any of the cooldown time.

Therefore, the key to competing for first place was to memorize as many numbers as possible at once.

Among them, there were a few who were even more radical.

Like Yang Jialan.

She was well aware that the maximum score achievable with two attempts was only ninety-nine, and then there was the risk of someone stealing the win.

Therefore, she chose the most arrogant way to win.

Memorize one hundred numbers within three minutes.

That was equivalent to memorizing 199 digits after the decimal point of pi within three minutes!

She was the top liberal arts student at Hengzhong High School.

What others found to be painful and torturous liberal arts subjects were like jingles that were printed in her mind after reading them once.

Even unstructured pure numbers could be memorized, so wouldn't those subjects with rules, logic, and memory be as simple as drinking water?

She was determined to win this round.

But at this moment, when she looked up at the big screen, her pupils dilated, and her expression froze.

Someone had submitted before her.

Moreover, they had obtained the maximum score she wanted—100 points!

This guy wasn't one of those disruptive thieves!

Like her, he had memorized 100 numbers in one go.

And he was even faster than her.

Impossible!

How could someone be stronger than me in terms of memory?!

From childhood, she had been hailed as a child prodigy, and she had never lost in this game.

Every Chinese New Year, when some children were playing the Peace Elite's Peace Games, when they reached the 'Bridge of Courage' level, she would confidently snatch the phone and clear the level in one go.

In her opinion, that fleeting moment was enough for her to remember the location of all the invisible bridges.

After all, that was talent.

But now, her talent had lost to someone else…

And it was someone from Eleventh High!

Thinking of this, she was filled with unwillingness.

If the audience hadn't shouted, she wouldn't have paused.

But even if she hadn't paused, she would only have been a little faster than the student from Fourth High, and she would only have been able to get 99 points…

Clenching her fists tightly, she remembered the smiling boy who looked quite happy.

The blow she received in this round was etched in her memory.

Why do I feel a little creepy…

Chen Yuan felt a somewhat cold gaze coming from over there.

Who is it?

Just as he thought this, his eyes met Shi Yi's.

After seeing him, the other party just smiled, as if he wasn't very regretful.

But soon, he saw Shi Yi lower his head, his eyes a little serious, as if he was reflecting on something…

My strategy was wrong.

I should have known that the speed of writing numbers would be very fast, different from the time of memorization.

Therefore, it was imprudent to divide it into 50, 50.

If it was 60, 40, then the speed would have been pushed to the extreme.

It might even be eight or nine seconds faster than now.

Then, he and Chen Yuan would have the same score, instead of being two points behind.

The point of losing was those ten seconds of doing nothing.

But the loss wasn't a pity.

Shi Yi did regret his tactics, but when he saw Chen Yuan getting 100 points, he gradually accepted it.

This 1 point was a reward for courage.

Chen Yuan's initial thought was to directly sprint for the highest 100 points.

Unlike him, who had prepared for a 1-point deduction.

If I had directly memorized a hundred, perhaps the speed would have been slower, but at least in the competitive landscape, it would have been equal to Chen Yuan.

Also,

It wasn't just Chen Yuan.

Everyone hadn't realized the third-place Hengzhong girl.

She got 98 points, the same as himself, which meant that she didn't make a single mistake and didn't flip a single card.

So, in this round, the people who were truly determined to win first place were Chen Yuan and Yang Jialan.

The first round of the memory competition was Chen Yuan vs Yang Jialan.

The others were all supporting characters.

Including himself.

Thinking of this, Shi Yi slowly clenched his fists, his heart filled with apology.

I'm sorry, Chen Yuan.

In the next round, I will let you enjoy yourself to the fullest!

After the three high-scoring contestants came out, everyone gradually figured out that these three people were really super strong.

Especially the first and third, they must have had 0 card flips.

"Chen Yuan, you're so awesome for winning against that Shi Yi." Zhou Fu was genuinely proud of Chen Yuan, feeling a sense of pride as a mother.

"And what's scary is…"

Looking at the time on the screen, Tang Siwen said in disbelief: "Ten seconds have already passed, and the fourth place hasn't come out yet."

What monsters?

The leaders of the research and study base couldn't laugh at all.

He only felt terrified of these students.

You know, the last contestant who got 99 points took 4 minutes and 05 seconds.

And these three people were all within four minutes.

If that student was included, his score would only be 96!

In other words, the strong ones who created records in the past were all second-tier contestants who were far behind in this year's competition.

The gold content of the championship was directly filled in this year.

These four schools are terrifying!

No, where did the four schools come from?

"..." Principal Chang Jun suddenly discovered a problem when he was frightened by these people.

Where are the students from Changjun High School?

Three schools will occupy the top three spots on the list. Guess which school didn't make it?

Yes.

It's Changjun, it's u!

Finally, after 11 seconds, Changjun's name appeared.

Fortunately, each of the top four was occupied by a school, so Principal Chang Jun wouldn't be particularly embarrassed.

But the score that came out seemed to be a bit problematic…

Zhou Miao from Changjun High School: 77 points.

"..." Principal Chang Jun was stunned for a moment before realizing the problem.

Damn, it's a thief!

Damn it, if you're going to steal, steal the first place!

Why did you only get 77 even after stealing?!

"I feel like there will be more and more disruptive students," the principal of Hengzhong said, judgingly.

Soon, it was true.

Within five seconds, several thieves appeared at once.

They were all the kind who started writing randomly after writing the last 20 numbers.

So, even though there were already nine people, only the top three had more than 90 points.

Then, two more people passed by writing normally.

But because there were wrong words, they were also deducted a few points.

The scores of the two people were both 88.

11 people have passed.

Then it means that the highest initial score for the next one is below 90 points.

And the two principals also discovered that doing this is beneficial to the top three!

I'm so happy, damn it.

Chen Yuan was really comfortable now.

After winning first place, the more people behind him who steal, the better.

Because in this way, the high score range will be stirred lower and lower.

People who steal usually only strive for around eighty points, and they will also occupy the ranking.

In this case, the players who try to be stable and flip the card once, and do it correctly, even if they have done their best, the initial score is already below 90.

At this moment, Chen Yuan is leading Shi Yi and Yang Jialan by 2 points.

Then it leads the 4th place by at least 10 points.

But it seems that 88 should be the score for the fourth and fifth places.

The advantage is really great…

Such a wonderful start, please cheer for me, please applaud for me!

The three leaders on the stage also suddenly realized that with those three monsters, this game was being played so wonderfully.

The three of them, by their own strength, improved the game's appreciation.

"Yang Jialan is the first in liberal arts in our school. Shi Yi, according to Principal Zhang, is the first in Fourth High and even the entire Haidong, and that Chen Yuan, according to Principal He, is also a scholar with 700 points…" The principal of Hengzhong couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that this is really a game for top students."

"After all, memory is also closely related to learning," said Principal Changjun.

"So the training in our research and study base is still quite necessary," the base leader boasted.

And everyone admitted that this research and study was indeed much more useful than ordinary military training and obedience education.

Intelligence, physical strength, teamwork ability, and life skills were all mobilized in many ways through competitive rankings.

And the competition had already been foreshadowed from the first public score ranking.

After this round, the scores are expected to change again.

Except for Changjun, the order of the remaining three schools may change.

But the most surprising thing is Eleventh High.

It really allowed it to overcome the odds.

"In this way, although Principal Zhang is powerful, he is still no match for young people."

This may be the only thing Principal Changjun can comfort himself with.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Jianjun's ranking popped up.

18th place completed, initial score 83.

Subtract two card flips, 81 points.

Number of errors, 0.

81 points.

Originally ranked 18th, Zhang Jianjun climbed up at once because of his 100% accuracy.

Damn it, 7th!

And the scores of the students behind him are basically impossible to be higher than him.

Stay in the top ten, and still get a good score of seventh!

The two principals, seeing this scene, had their self-esteem, which had just been repaired a little, begin to shatter again.

Zhang Jianjun, you are an old man!

How can you get seventh place in this kind of competition?

You are not young anymore!

They just watched Zhang Jianjun, who had completed the competition, grit their teeth, put down the tablet, and then stretched their bodies stiffly while supporting their waists.

Damn, you have a herniated disc and you're still so competitive!

As expected of a newly emerging super strong school, it not only sold the freedom and soul of the students to the devil.

Even the principal himself has become a devil!

Therefore, everyone's attention changed from Zhang Jianjun to He Hongtao.

You are different from him. Your Eleventh High School still has public puppy love, so relax a little and don't work too hard…

The faces of our two principals are going to be embarrassing!

He Hongtao felt the gaze from some old fogeys.

Those two principals must want to see him embarrassed.

In fact, he really has the possibility of being embarrassed…

He memorized in four groups.

There is a one-minute Cd between these four groups.

So it will take at least seven or eight minutes to finish.

But it's only been five minutes now, and it's already reached almost 20th place.

And as time goes by, there are more and more people grabbing points.

Should I also grab some points?

But I'm only on the third group now.

If there are 30 mistakes, it will be directly zero points.

No, I can't let these point-grabbing people mess up my rhythm.

The shrewd He Hongtao keenly realized that the competition has reached this point, and it's no longer about ability.

Because now many people have already had their rhythm disrupted.

Sure enough, as more and more people grabbed points, the shouts of the audience became more and more noisy, and the hearts of many contestants in the arena were completely messed up.

Damn it, what was I reciting just now… I forgot, I forgot everything.

I just started memorizing the fourth group. By the time I finish memorizing and writing, will it be over?

Damn it, even if I get everything right, but if I rank in the nineties, wouldn't I have no points?

Under this intertwining of tension and pessimistic emotions, there are more and more mistakes.

Finally, a name popped up in the 42nd place with an initial score of 59.

But the next moment, this name was directly removed.

Too many mistakes, 0 points!

Seeing his name being wiped out, the student immediately hugged his head in pain and was very regretful.

He thought it was almost over, so he chose to write all the last 25 numbers randomly as 22.

In this way, even if all the guesses are wrong and the rest are correct, only 25 points will be deducted.

But obviously, the range of error he gave was too small.

The number of mistakes in the previous numbers was more than five.

This led to the number of wrong numbers being greater than 30, directly returning to zero!

But this is not what he regrets the most.

Until he saw that he was still ranked 42nd when he submitted now, he realized - there are so many people, why am I panicking!

This is a mistake in mentality.

Because the speed of other people is too fast, the sense of urgency is gradually strengthened.

In this case, people with poor stress resistance are basically unable to proceed according to the original plan.

At this time, the advantage of having a big heart is reflected.

Xia Xinyu knows that she is definitely not the worst.

She also knows that she is not qualified to compete for the top spots.

Therefore, the disturbances from the outside world, as far as she is concerned, it is better not to pay attention to them.

For every number, she must achieve the ultimate precision.

When she reached the last twenty-five, she looked up at the big screen, and then immediately lowered her head and continued to recite.

Now, the number of people has exceeded fifty.

If she randomly writes these twenty, and then submits it, she will also get 20 points, and the ranking will not be bad.

But it has not reached this point yet.

What she wants to do is not above zero points.

What she wants is to give her best performance!

In this way, the last group of numbers was memorized.

The number of people is already close to sixty.

Then, she quickly entered these numbers.

Calm and composed, unhurried.

With the input of the last 14, the computer submitted at the same time.

Xia Xinyu's ranking, 61st.

The initial score, 40!

Deducting the three card flips, 37!

And the number of errors is zero!

Yay!

Chen Yuan saw that although Xia Xinyu was the 61st to finish, because her accuracy rate was 100%, and she did not make a single mistake, she successfully won against those point grabbers.

All of a sudden, it climbed to the 41st place!

Moreover, there is basically no possibility of this ranking falling again.

Among the 100 top students from the four top schools, Yu Zi's ranking sequence is 41!

In the middle and upper reaches!

Looking at Xia Xinyu, who showed a happy smile and was very proud, Chen Yuan felt that his woman was really extraordinary.

What about Wu Wenxin?

She is also writing very seriously.

But the impact of the outside world on her is really a bit big.

Her mentality is obviously not as good as Xia Xinyu, and she looks up at the big screen from time to time.

It seems that she will also become a negative score player like some of the contestants.

In fact, it is not that difficult to not get a negative score in this game.

According to four card flips to deduct 4 points.

Then make as many mistakes as possible within three, deducting 3 points.

As long as it is not the last seven to finish, they are all above zero points.

The key to the problem lies in the submission mechanism.

"Since there is no way to compete for the top spots, it is the right strategy to simply ensure accuracy and try not to get a negative score," the principal of Changjun proposed.

"That's the right way to think." At this, the leader of the base smiled faintly, "But human nature is complex."

After he finished speaking, the order above had reached the 70th place.

And it was at this node that suddenly, four were submitted in a row!

The initial scores were 31, 30, 29, and 28 respectively.

Then, these four players were successively removed after being listed.

"Four zero points?!" The principal of Hengzhong was dumbfounded, "Why?"

This is too scary.

If it were a chicken-eating game, wouldn't it directly kill four of them?

"The 70th place should be a node, coinciding with the maximum number of 30 wrong numbers," the principal of Changjun guessed.

"That's right."

At this time, the leader of the research and study base explained: "Now, it has reached the seventieth place. At this time, those students who feel that they must be ranked in the nineties can only gamble and directly submit with 20 wrong, deducting the card flips and the wrong ones, they can still get at least 5 points."

"But because there are too many mistakes, it will be directly zero points," the principal of Hengzhong nodded.

"But if they really remember at a normal speed, will they be after the ninetieth place?" asked the principal of Changjun.

"There are only ten after the ninetieth place. But there are definitely more than ten who think they will be after the ninetieth place. This is the contradiction." The leader of the research and study base said.

This sentence broke the doubts of the two.

As time goes by, the tense emotions will become stronger and stronger.

The feeling of not wanting to be ashamed will also interfere with the judgment.

In this case, it is rare to be able to stand firm.

And He Hongtao, whom they are paying attention to, is one of them.

He Hongtao from Eleventh High School submitted in the 72nd place with an initial score of 29 points.

Deducting 3 card flips, 1 error, the final score: 25.

And because his mentality was not greatly affected, he, who submitted in the 72nd place, directly soared to the 50th place.

Such an old thing, facing this group of little monsters, reached the average combat power!

The two principals lowered their heads even more ashamed.

If it is 16 into 8, it is equivalent to this guy has already entered the knockout round.

Eleventh High School is really tough from top to bottom!

50th place, 25 points…

Zhang Jianjun smiled unconsciously after seeing He Hongtao's ranking and score on the big screen.

This old boy is okay.

The cruel digital memory competition has already become a psychological warfare in the later stage.

And after the ninetieth place, the atmosphere of the competition players became gradually heavy…

After a player submitted, he was quickly brushed down.

The card flip plus the wrong numbers directly put her below zero points.

-<

1.

And she has worked so hard to memorize for so long, and she is not even as good as those who write randomly and then are directly reset to zero.

Negative numbers are more shameful than zero.

Sobbing sounds appeared in the arena…

The cruel competition directly made the girls cry.

Hearing this sound, Wu Wenxin bit her lip, trembled slightly, and was so nervous that she couldn't add anything…

Will so many people in the audience watch their name pop up and then be brushed down?

That's too embarrassing.

Is the Wu-Yi combination going to be crushed by Xin-Yuan because of her?

Along with these worries, she wrote the last 14.

Wu Wenxin finished in 94th place with an initial score of 7 points.

Flip the card four times, deduct 4 points.

0 errors.

Final score, 3 points.

Ranked 70th.

When she saw that her name was not brushed and was still after 70, Wu Wenxin's tears immediately came out.

The boat has passed thousands of mountains, wuwuwu.

And Shi Yi on the side wiped her eyes with his fingertips.

Suddenly, the audience became agitated.

"Sweet sweet sweet!"

"My God, Fourth High School can also do this?"

"Isn't Jianjun-chan next to him?"

"Harren but exciting!"

Zhang Jianjun did see this scene.

So, he quickly turned his eyes away.

Well, I don't look.

But you two should also restrain yourselves a little!

In this way, the six people after Wu Wenxin were all zero points.

The game is over.

The top three are Chen Yuan, Shi Yi, and Yang Jialan, with 100, 98, and 98 points respectively.

The scores from 4th to 10th are 88, 88, 85, 81, 77, 75, and 73 respectively.

Among them, Zhang Jianjun ranked 7th and Xiao Sun ranked 9th.

And the last one on the ranking list, Wu Wenxin, had 3 points and ranked 70th.

The rest are thirty zero points and negative points without recording names.

"Damn it, it's so scary, what the hell is this!"

"30% of the people are below 0 points? What are you doing?"

"Fortunately, I didn't play, otherwise my brother would have dropped small pearls."

"But the top three are really top-notch, leading by 10 points+!"

Just as everyone was discussing fiercely, the host said with a smile: "Students, is the first round difficult?"

""Yes!""

The people on and off the stage shouted in unison.

Then, the female host smiled with squinted eyes and said: "I am very happy to see your reaction, because the second round will be even more difficult!"
