Chapter 449: Hua Country, Ying Zijin [2 updates]
Otherwise, Irina wouldn’t have so brazenly called Hua Country’s contestants garbage.
Teng Yunmeng whispered, “I don’t know if there’s a problem with the draw, but too many of our contestants have faced her.”
“It’s also because I’m too terrible.” The girl’s eyes reddened, “If only I had learned a little more, I wouldn’t have scored just five points.”
“No, you did well, you’re really amazing.” Ying Zijin lifted her eyes, “You all aren’t bad; it’s just that the other side’s knowledge isn’t something a high schooler could have. It’s not an equal match.”
It was yesterday when Yu Xuesheng came to her and confirmed once again that Irina had her past life’s memories awakened.
He even specifically looked up the scientists from O continent’s history, but none quite matched up.
A scientist competing against high school students—what suspense could there possibly be in the result?
“Everyone knows she’s in a special situation, but what can be done about it.” Feng Yue sighed, “Maybe I should go get hypnotized too. What if I was Simon Brand in a past life?”
Ying Zijin fell silent for a moment, “Don’t worry, you’re not him; you’re way more honest than he is.”
Feng Yue: “???”
“Let’s go eat first.” Ying Zijin glanced at the time, “We need energy for the competition this afternoon.”
Teng Yunmeng nodded and helped the girl stand up.
The restaurant was on the ground floor of the venue.
No sooner had they entered when they were greeted by a burst of hissing sounds.
It was the contestants from Yilan Public School.
Irina sat among them, her smile laden with mockery.
She looked at the girl and said coldly, “I forgot to tell you yesterday, I’m really looking forward to facing off against you in the individual contest, but what a pity you drew the team event.”
Otherwise, she would have made sure to trample Ying Zijin’s pride under her feet.
Ying Zijin stopped in her tracks, turned her head, her gaze as icy as snow, “Before this, I might have said something, but now—”
“You’re not worthy.”
Irina’s expression changed, and her voice altered, “I’m not worthy?”
Ying Zijin, with one hand in her pocket, replied, “We’ll see in the final contest.”
Irina was taken aback and frowned, “What did you say?”
Ying Zijin paid her no more attention and went to the serving window to get her meal.
“Irina, don’t bother with her.” The boy beside her sneered disdainfully, “You can only participate in one, the individual or the team event. She’s just boasting.”
Irina pursed her lips.
For some reason, she had a bad feeling, but couldn’t quite put her finger on it.
She couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to Ying Zijin anymore and left the restaurant.
**
After lunch, Ying Zijin and Teng Yunmeng parted ways with the others.
She glanced at the map and headed to the organizing committee’s office.
Inside were the organizing committee’s director and several staff members.
“Ying Zijin.” The director stood up, his tone warm, “What can I do for you?”
Team events are collaborative, so it’s usually hard for an individual to stand out.
But there was this freak, Ying Zijin.
She became famous in one battle.
Now, there wasn’t a person in the entire organizing committee who didn’t know her.
Ying Zijin nodded, “Director, I came to ask if what you mentioned before still holds?”
The director was momentarily startled, “What are you referring to?”
Ying Zijin raised her hand and pushed her phone toward him.
The director took it and his expression instantly froze.
He was astounded, almost speechless, “Ying Zijin, you…”
On the phone were Ying Zijin’s username and her quiz scores.
Although the ISC’s online competition had ended, the quiz app and accounts were still preserved.
“It’s me.” Ying Zijin nodded slightly, “So, does it still count?”
“Of course, it counts.” The director flushed with excitement, “Having you compete is an honor for the ISC.”
She’d topped the overall leaderboard!
They’d finally got her to come!
No, rather, the overall leaderboard’s number one was there all along.
What a magical fact!
“In that case, I should have two spots.” Ying Zijin spoke up, “I can draw again for the individual event, right?”
“Certainly.” The director nodded, “But we’d agreed that you’d get a 1v1 showdown, and you can go directly to the final.”
Ying Zijin put away her phone, “That’s great, I’ll go to the individual finals.”
“Yes, yes, yes.” The director escorted the girl out, “We’ll arrange it, we’ll start arranging it right away.”
**
People all over the world were watching the live broadcast, though not everyone, just as not everyone watches the Olympics.
Ying Yuexuan started watching on the third day.
So far, 47 Hua Country contestants had gone up against Irina.
Without exception, all were defeated.
Ying Yuexuan sneered silently to herself.
She had to acknowledge Ying Zijin’s strength as unparalleled among her peers.
But that’s how reality is; some people won’t recognize how incredible Ying Zijin is—they’ll only focus on the results.
Even if they know that it’s because of Irina that Hua Country’s contestants were defeated, they would still blame Ying Zijin for it.
They only knew how to blame her for not leading Hua Country to a high ranking.
Just like in sports competitions, these people wouldn’t remember the athletes who had broken world records.
They would only remember the athletes who had to withdraw from the games due to injuries, missing out on the championship and finishing last.
Ying Yuexuan lowered her head, the corners of her mouth revealing a sarcastic smile.
She just waited for Hua Country to finish last in the ISC international finals, and for Ying Zijin to return home, to see what kind of abuse the netizens would hurl at her.
If she was having a hard time, Ying Zijin shouldn’t expect to get off scot-free either.
Ying Yuexuan took a sip of water and continued watching the live broadcast.
At this point, it was the last match of the individual competition.
Teng Yunmeng had not encountered Irina in the earlier rounds and had made it to the final round on her own strength.
Irina didn’t take Teng Yunmeng seriously at all and still finished answering within five minutes.
The big screen displayed the final scores of the two contestants.
20:9
It was still an absolute and overwhelming difference.
Even though Teng Yunmeng had anticipated this outcome, it still hurt.
[Teng Yunmeng, you’re already amazing, cheer up, believe in yourself!]
[We don’t compete with people who lack integrity. Win the competition, but lose character.]
[Heh, stop making excuses for your failure, Irina is the strongest.]
“Zijin.” Teng Yunmeng came down, her eyes also red, “I’m sorry.”
In the team competition, thanks to the points Ying Zijin had raised, and in the individual competition, they were all suppressed by Irina.
The overall rankings hadn’t been announced yet, but it was certain that Hua Country probably wouldn’t even make the top ten.
“It’s okay,” Ying Zijin patted her shoulder, “don’t talk like that until the last moment has passed.”
After speaking, she stood up, put her name tag on her chest, and walked up to the stage.
Teng Yunmeng was startled, “Zijin?”
The individual competition had already ended. What was she going up there for?
“God Ying!” Feng Yue panicked, “God Ying, calm down, don’t go up and hit someone. We can just take them aside and beat them with a sack privately.”
Ying Zijin didn’t look back, already stepping onto the central stage’s stairs.
At the same moment, the host began speaking into the microphone, his expression very excited.
“Ladies and gentlemen, the competition is not yet over. Please do not leave, do not leave, this is the last match, and it will be more exciting than you can imagine!”
Upon hearing these words, the audience and the contestants were all surprised, including the professors in the professor’s area.
It was then that Ying Zijin walked up and stood in front of the answer device.
The live broadcast’s comment section exploded.
Of course, it was the international comment section.
[Why is Ying Zijin still allowed to participate in the individual competition???]
[Unfair!]
[Rigging! Rigging! Rigging!]
Even the on-site audience was amazed, not understanding what was going on.
Irina’s gaze darkened.
“Anyone who has followed our competition surely knows our global leaderboard’s number one!” the host said with a face so red from excitement, “Today, we’ve invited her to the competition site for a 1v1 final showdown!”
[That’s hilarious, you’re not actually going to tell us Ying Zijin is the number one on the leaderboard? Which international competition direct entrant would bother with selection trials? That’s insane?]
[If Ying Zijin is the global leaderboard number one, I’ll jump off a building.]
[The organizing committee is biased towards Hua Country, tsk tsk tsk.]
The audience below shouted out in anger.
“Please, everyone, stay calm,” the host raised his voice, “we were also surprised—the global leaderboard number one is indeed a direct entrant to the international competition. According to the rules of the competition, she indeed has one more chance.”
“Please look at the big screen.”

The score on the big screen disappeared, replaced by the table in front of Ying Zijin.
On the table was her phone, which clearly displayed her ISC answering app account and score.
Next, Ying Zijin opened the Shark Live Broadcasting Platform and logged into her account in front of everyone.
Chocolate Mousse.
A very ordinary ID, but one that netizens from Hua Country all recognized.
The global leaderboard’s number one live streaming account!
“…”
There was silence on the scene, and the comment sections of various countries’ live broadcasts were completely emptied.
Irina gripped her fingers tightly, her head shot up, and she gritted her teeth: “You, you are the global leaderboard number one?!”
No wonder, the day before yesterday Ying Zijin had told her they’d see at the final venue.
Others might not understand, but Irina was very clear.
Only the global number one could pose a threat to her, a considerable threat.
That’s why Irina regretted her harsh words after issuing them.
Knowing the global number one wasn’t coming, she actually breathed a sigh of relief.
Ying Zijin lifted her head, her brows light, her gaze steady.
She looked straight at the millions of viewers on the scene, directly at the live broadcast cameras from various nations.
Then she reached out, straightened the name tag in front of her, and introduced herself once again.
“From Hua Country, Ying Zijin.”
She would fight for Hua Country!
