82: How could someone who's nobody get first place? Was it cheating?

The list was released, and dazzling names were quietly displayed on it.

For a time, countless examinees, netizens, students, teachers, special departments... could be said to have "flocked" to it.

They eagerly checked to see who was in the top ten!

"No, what's going on? Chen Siyu's overall energy level is as high as 3500+, which would definitely make him the top scholar of the college entrance examination in previous years, right?"

"How is he only fifth place?"

"Good heavens, are these the ten strongest Class Changers awakened in our Dragon Country this year?"

"I'm so envious!"

"I knew I was right, didn't I? The ranking of the practical assessment doesn't account for much in the College Entrance Examination score. Although Huang Shaotian lost to Chi Tianlin, he's still stronger than Chi Tianlin."

Most of the people on the list were those previously mentioned by netizens, individuals already famous nationwide.

Therefore, seeing those familiar names on the list,

The vast majority of people, although they still had some objections, more or less,

Considering that the opponents of their supported candidates were all formidable individuals, the objections weren't very strong.

Until they saw Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi, who were ranked first and second respectively—two names completely unfamiliar to almost everyone... everyone who had finished checking the list was stunned!

And after they reacted, without a doubt, in an instant, a huge uproar was stirred up across the entire internet of Dragon Country... In just a few minutes, trending topics about the unexpected top scholar of the college entrance examination and second place soared to the top of major mainstream media hot searches in Dragon Country!

[Shocking! This year's College Entrance Examination saw both the top scholar and the second place unexpectedly emerge as dark horses! It wasn't Huang Shaotian, who awakened the Archangel class that combines both magic and combat, nor was it...]

"Huh? No... where did these two, Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi, who are first and second, come from?"

"What the hell is this? Huang Shaotian only ranked third? Then these second and first places must be walking on air, right?"

"Damn it, it's a fix!! Absolutely a fix!! I've never heard of these two people before, okay?"

"If these two were really stronger than Huang Shaotian, they wouldn't be completely unknown, no matter what, right?"

"Isn't it possible someone cheated on the College Entrance Examination and tampered with the energy level tester?"

"Damn it, if this isn't a fix, I'll eat my words while standing on my head!"

Below the hot search, almost ninety-nine percent of the people found it completely unbelievable that Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi, whom they had never heard of, had respectively taken the national first and second places.

Many people even began to question the fairness and impartiality of the College Entrance Examination's top ten rankings!

They believed that this year's College Entrance Examination list was highly likely to have been rigged!

Furthermore, as time passed, this skepticism showed a strong tendency to intensify.

In a short while, discussions about [this year's College Entrance Examination being highly likely to involve cheating] also climbed to the top of trending searches on various platforms.

For a time, the entire internet was flooded with questions about Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi!

Only a very small number of people, in the comments sections of various posts, strenuously defended Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi:

"What fix? Is it so hard to admit that others are excellent? I know both of these people, okay?"

"Qin Yu's overall energy level during the College Entrance Examination test was as high as 5470 euler, directly breaking the world record. Isn't it normal for him to be the top scholar of the college entrance examination?"

"Exactly, exactly. Let alone Qin Yu, even Nie Yuxi... Goddess Nie's energy level is several hundred higher than that Huang Shaotian and Chi Tianlin you mentioned, okay?"

"An energy level of 3740 euler, is there a problem with the second place?"

"How could there be a fix?"

"No? Where are your brains? Which College Entrance Examination isn't a joint assessment conducted by various academies sending their students to major cities?"

"How could it be cheating? I said before that Jiangnan Province had two incredible prodigies, but you thought it was fake news and didn't believe it, so fine..."

"Now, you don't even believe the College Entrance Examination results. It's truly laughable!"

"…"

The vast majority of these people were, of course, local residents of Jiangzhou City... examinees and citizens who had witnessed Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi's entire College Entrance Examination process.

Among them were also some netizens who had previously heard about Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi.

However, it's still the same point... even in the Jiangnan Province region, most people still completely disbelieved the scores of Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi.

Let alone the entire Dragon Country?

Therefore, these comments, just like before... sank to the bottom of the lake the moment they were posted.

Not a ripple was made.

Of course... with such widespread online questioning of Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi, the Jiangzhou City Education Bureau, and the Jiangnan Province Education Bureau, which had already verified and confirmed the accuracy of Nie Yuxi and Qin Yu's College Entrance Examination results.

As well as the various academies that participated in the Jiangzhou City College Entrance Examination joint assessment.

Evidently, they couldn't just stand by and do nothing!

After all, these people questioning the fairness and impartiality of the College Entrance Examination, to some extent, was also questioning the integrity of these departments.

"It's too much. Our Jiangzhou City, after so many years, finally produced two SSS-rank Professions at once, even if they directly took the national first and second places."

"It is indeed somewhat incredible..."

"But it's not to the extent of questioning Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi for College Entrance Examination cheating, is it?"

Inside the Jiangzhou City Education Bureau, Ji Yanzhi, who had woken up early and saw that Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi had respectively taken the top scholar of the college entrance examination and the second place, was originally in a rather good mood.

He felt that Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi, by overpowering so many geniuses nationwide, truly brought honor to Jiangzhou City and even the entire Jiangnan Province.

However, when he saw the overwhelming online skepticism,

Ji Yanzhi was trembling with anger!

Without almost any hesitation, Ji Yanzhi slammed his hand on the table and said to his assistant beside him:

"Xiao Wang, go and release the College Entrance Examination videos of Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi!"

"I want to see who still dares to say that Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi cheated!"

Regarding the College Entrance Examination assessment videos of Qin Yu and Nie Yuxi.

They were quickly updated on the official accounts of the Jiangzhou City Education Bureau across various platforms!

And close on its heels, the official account of the Jiangnan Province Education Bureau also wasn't idle... barely a minute after the Jiangzhou City Education Bureau's video was released, the Jiangnan Province Education Bureau immediately reposted both videos!

And at the same time,

Various academies that participated in the Jiangzhou City College Entrance Examination joint assessment.

Also began to issue Clarification Announcement (clarification announcements) one after another at this time!
