When the girls heard this, they immediately forgot about the matters in the Fang family's house and asked one after another: "How to choose?"
"Do you want to take a test?"
"Does everyone have the opportunity to participate in the academy competition?"
"Those with poor qualifications should not participate. Otherwise, their poor performance in the competition will hinder everyone and bring shame to Lianchi Academy." Of course, the only one who could say these words directly was Yan Zhenzhen, who was still calm when saying it.
He glanced at Sheng Jinyue specifically.
Sheng Jinyue's face turned red with anger.
According to her previous temper, she and Yan Zhenzhen had already quarreled. However, after returning to the academy after a serious illness, Sheng Jinyue's previous arrogance has been reduced by most, and she is much more silent and less talkative than before.
Although he was very angry at this time, he didn't say a word and endured it.
Perhaps it was because she knew very well that what Yan Zhenzhen said made sense.
Her qualifications were not outstanding to begin with, and she was still at the bottom of the list despite her best efforts. Then she took more than two months of leave and missed a lot of classes. It was even more difficult to catch up with her classmates.
In the most recent monthly exam, she only scored 48 points, shamefully tied for last place with the Sixth Princess.
The sixth princess's weaknesses are obvious, but her strengths are even more outstanding. No one can match her in the three categories of Sheyushu, and she will definitely be selected into the list.
But she is mediocre. Even if she wanted to participate in the college competition, she wouldn't have the nerve to open her mouth... That's it, she won't go if she doesn't want to go! She doesn't care about it anyway!
Sheng Jinyue bit her lip hard, and stood up and walked out under the different eyes of everyone.
No one expected that Xie Mingxi would shout to her: "Wait!"
…
Sheng Jinyue turned her head angrily, her eyes red: "Why are you calling me? You can just discuss the candidates. I won't participate anyway! Why ask me to stay?"
Xie Mingxi smiled leisurely: "Who said you won't participate? In this academy competition, all students from our Haitang Academy must participate!"
Sheng Jinyue: "..."
Girls: "..."
Before Sheng Jinyue could react, Yan Zhenzhen had already objected: "How can this be done! Not to mention others, Sheng Jinyue is not doing well in her studies. Which one can she take? No! I don't agree!"
Li Xiangru didn't agree with it in her heart, but since she was Sheng Jinyue's "good friend", she couldn't speak out against it at this time.
Li Xiangru said warmly: "Sister Yan's words are wrong. Since Sister Xie proposed this idea, she naturally has her considerations. Let's listen carefully to see what she plans. I think she will definitely put the academy competition first! If
She failed in the competition and lost the queen's face. How can she still be so honest?"
Is Li Xiangru trying to dig a hole for her?
Xie Mingxi glanced at Li Xiangru, who looked upright, with a half-smile but not a smile: "Sister Li, what you mean is that if I don't place well in this academy competition, I will have to plead guilty and drop out of school?"
Li Xiangru's eyes flashed and he said calmly: "Sister Xie is outstanding in academics and no one can match her. Who dares to ask Sister Xie to drop out of school? It's just that the mountain leader has high expectations for sister Xie. Come to think of it, sister Xie doesn't want to disappoint the mountain leader.
"
Unexpectedly, don’t mean anything else.
This Li Xiangru seemed to have sensed her desire to become Master Gu Shanchang.
Xie Mingxi chuckled: "Now I don't have to worry about Sister Li."
Li Xiangru sneered in his heart and said no more.
…
The sixth princess came last.
When the Sixth Princess learned of Xie Mingxi's plan, she was not surprised. Instead, she nodded slightly: "This is a group competition. Everyone should participate."
The girls more or less complained. Even Lin Weiwei actually didn't agree with it, but just didn't say a word.
Only the sixth princess spoke out in support.
Xie Mingxi raised her head and looked at the Sixth Princess.
The sixth princess's beautiful and deep eyes showed encouragement.
If you just want to stand out alone, it's easy. All you need to do is sign up for all six schools. With Xie Mingxi's excellence, she will definitely become famous.
But if Xie Mingxi did this, he would lose the best opportunity to become a disciple.
The test that Principal Gu Shan gave to Xie Mingxi was not only to achieve good results in the college competition. More importantly, it was to show his extraordinary mind and ability to work together.
In short, it is whether you can be a good leader.
Xie Mingxi also figured this out, so he decided that everyone should participate in the academy competition.
"You can take up to two courses. If you are good at few courses, you can take one course." The Sixth Princess said: "There are still two months left, so you can prepare with all your strength."
"Xie Mingxi, is that what you plan to do?"
Xie Mingxi nodded: "Yes."
A smile flashed in the eyes of the Sixth Princess.
Xie Mingxi also laughed.
A strange heat surged in my heart, giving birth to the joy of finding a close friend in my life.
Lin smiled teasingly: "Hey, you two are almost ready! Your eyes are almost stuck together!"
Xie Mingxi smiled and spat at Lin Weiwei, suppressing the strange throbbing in her heart.
…
Two days later, Xie Mingxi sent the list of candidates to Chief Gu: "The candidates have been decided. Please take a look at it."
Gu Shanchang smiled and hummed, took the list, and then read it carefully.
Xie Mingxi stood quietly and waited.
After a moment, Gu Shanchang raised his head, with a calm expression, unable to tell the difference between happiness and anger: "Xie Mingxi, I am participating in the college competition with a new lineup. You are more courageous than me. You actually let all the students in Haitang Academy...
Everyone participates.”
"Aren't you afraid that there will be insufficient manpower and poor performance, which will affect the overall performance of Lianchi Academy?"
"How will you explain to me then?"
On this list, all the twelve students from Haitang Academy are missing. There are two students with more students and one student with less students.
Even Xie Mingxi himself only participated in the arithmetic and etiquette competitions. He did not participate in the music and rhythm of the Four Books and Five Classics, which he was good at.
The Sixth Princess participated in Sheyu, but not in arithmetic. Yin Xiaoxiao also participated in Sheyu.
Li Xiangru studied music and arithmetic, Lin Weiwei studied the same two disciplines, and Fang Ruomeng studied the Four Books and Archery.
The remaining six people only participated in one competition.
Qin Sihun and Yan Zhenzhen participated in the Four Books and Five Classics competition, Xiao Yuhan and Mu Wanting participated in the etiquette competition, Sheng Jinyue participated in the music competition, and Tong Yue participated in the horse riding competition.
Judging from everyone's daily coursework, everyone is indeed taking courses that they are good at. However, it is not the optimal lineup.
Take arithmetic as an example.
The sixth princess who was best at arithmetic was not selected.
The same is true for shooting. Xie Mingxi, who is excellent at shooting, was not included in the list of participants.
Gu Shan looked at Xie Mingxi intently.
Xie Mingxi looked calm and responded: "Since the mountain leader has given me full authority on this matter, I will do my best and never let the mountain leader down."
"I think the principal would also be happy to see all the students in our Haitang Academy participating in the academy competition to win glory for Lianchi Academy!"
After hearing the words "all students", Chief Gu Shan's expression moved slightly. (To be continued)
