“The purpose of calling your team over is to get to the bottom of things,” said the man blandly before raising his voice a little as he swept his gaze at the students around him. “Besides, can a recording alone prove that her score has been amended?”
His insinuation was clear.
Gu Mang, however, only raised her eyebrows a little. She said nothing in response.
Yang Tianming pursed his lips. “Since we’re investigating this matter, we need a notary.”
The man seemed irritated. “Who do you want as your notary?”
“Chief Editor Fei Luo.”
The man fixed his gaze on Yang Tianming, who was neither obsequious nor supercilious, before finally taking out his phone to give Leng Yun a call to report the situation at hand. The way he spoke to Leng Yun was entirely different from how he had spoken to the Capital University’s team.
“I got it,” replied the man respectfully before ending the call. “We’ve sent someone to get the Chief Editor. Can we go now?”
Yang Tianming turned his head to look at Gu Mang, who leisurely stood up and placed her cap on her head.
The man then gave the MC on stage a look. Upon seeing the signal, the MC nodded to indicate that she understood.
When they arrived backstage, they saw Leng Yun waiting with her arms crossed in front of her chest. The man walked up to her and greeted her respectfully. “Assistant Leng.”
Leng Yun nodded as she glanced at Gu Mang, who had her hands in her pockets. Although the latter looked proud and aloof, her disposition was totally different from Leng Xuan’s overbearing demeanor.
…
Things were still chaotic outside, but as soon as Gu Mang left, the broadcast room returned to normal. The MC picked up her microphone once more and smilingly said, “We’ll conduct a strict investigation on this matter in order to ensure the authenticity of the results. Now, let’s move on and announce the other teams’ results.”
The audience quieted down slightly, which made the MC heave a sigh of relief. “Next up, we have Country K’s M University and Mingyu Island’s S Univer—”

“Excuse me.” Someone from the audience suddenly stood up. It was a male student. The top student of S University, in fact. “Are you certain that the results you’re announcing aren’t falsified?”
“Of course,” replied the MC.
“If the earlier voice recording is real, then how can we trust that our own results aren’t falsified as well? You already falsified Gu Mang’s perfect score, didn’t you?” retorted the male student.
The boy’s question made the MC tighten her grip on the microphone slightly. It looks like Elder Leng is going to destroy Jijing Island’s reputation.
…
Meanwhile, Leng Yun led the Capital University team to a meeting room where Leng Xuan and the Academic Center’s manager were waiting. Fei Luo had not arrived yet though.
The manager frowned slightly when he saw Gu Mang. For some reason, he found her a little familiar-looking.
On the other hand, it was Leng Xuan’s first time meeting Gu Mang. Her eyes narrowed slightly when she saw Gu Mang’s attractive face. Seeing how she planted her men in the Academic Center and entered the review room, it looks like I’ve really underestimated her.
“Please take a seat,” said Leng Yun.
Yang Tianming and Professor Xue thus sat down while their students eyed Leng Xuan and the manager carefully before pulling chairs out for themselves. An assistant then brought them some water in disposable cups.
Yang Tianming had seen Leng Xuan only a handful of times. Even then, he had only seen her from a distance. Those who could talk to Leng Xuan were people at Yu Zhongjing’s and Kang Qi’s level.
Gu Mang showed no emotions as she walked over lazily and kicked a chair out. She then sat down on it, leaned back against the seat, and put a leg across her knee. Each of her actions exuded arrogance as if she were there to settle a score.
Leng Xuan took one look at her before shifting her gaze away. The manager’s attention did not stay on Gu Mang for long either, for they had serious business to settle. “Professor Yang, I hope that your team can admit that it was Gu Mang who falsified the voice recording.”
“What do you mean by that?” A hint of anger surfaced in Yang Tianming’s eyes. They want us to admit that it’s our fault? Given how things turned out, it’s no longer a matter of scoring badly on the competition and getting criticized by the media and the public. If we admit that the voice recording is fake, wouldn’t that be telling everyone that Capital University has no moral values and sportsmanship, thus resorting to such despicable means? That’ll cause irreparable damage to the university’s reputation!
The manager smiled. “Isn’t sending your school’s students to Jijing Institute for further education the ultimate purpose of joining this competition? We can give you six spots, including Gu Mang’s. Moving forward, we’ll also guarantee a spot for Capital University students. In return, you have to take responsibility for this matter.”
Yang Tianming, Professor Xue, and the rest of the students froze when they heard that. They were not stupid, so they obviously knew what this meant. The voice recording was real and Leng Xuan had indeed changed Gu Mang’s score. However, Jijing Island was refusing to own up, so if they were wise, they would take the benefits offered as well as the blame.
It was indeed a tempting offer, for Jijing Island was somewhat xenophobic and it was difficult to enter the Jijing Special Institute as an outsider. This was the reason why all the teams fought so hard to get first place in the competitions held on Jijing Island every year. It was all for the sake of getting a spot at Jijing Special Institute for further education.
All I did was offer them a few spots and they’re already swaying. As Leng Xuan took in their expressions, a slow smile developed on her lips. She then looked at Gu Mang once more. Even if she has incriminating evidence, she needs someone to stand up for her first. If her professor refuses to pursue the matter, then her score of 59 will become fact. She will be blamed for falsifying the voice recording and becoming a burden to Capital University.
Disdain was apparent in Leng Xuan’s eyes. A nobody like her dared to play tricks with me? Let’s see if her teammates will choose to stand on her side in the face of such rewards. Let’s see who would be so stupid to give up the chance to enroll in the Jijing Special Institute!
