In Zong Ruoan's memory, Xia Chujian's grades were particularly poor.
It would be good if she could pass those subjects, how could she get full marks in everything?!
This is not right...
He must not make a mistake and be caught by Teng Pingmao.
Zong Ruoan narrowed his eyes and suddenly sent a message to Quan Yuxun.
[Zong Ruoan]: Young Master Quan, did you help Chujian with the National Higher Education Entrance Examination?
Quan Yuxun was in a good mood and was just thinking about how to send a message to Xia Chujian.
Seeing Zong Ruoan's message, his eyes narrowed.
[Quan Yuxun]: What do you mean, Young Master Zong? What does First Lieutenant Xia's National Higher Education Entrance Examination have to do with me?
Zong Ruoan frowned. It wasn't Quan Yuxun who helped? Quan Yuxun wouldn't hide this kind of thing from him, would he?
What he meant was, did Quan Yuxun come forward to find someone to leak the questions to Xia Chujian...
To be on the safe side, Zong Ruoan sent Quan Yuxun a video call request.
Quan Yuxun was silent for a while, but still answered Zong Ruoan's video call.
He didn't use a virtual background, and Zong Ruoan could tell at a glance that he was in his Senate Chief Legal Counsel's office.
Zong Ruoan nodded and said with a smile, "Young Master Quan, are you really not going to reveal anything?"
"I'm so familiar with Chujian, if you help her, I can also help you fill in the gaps..."
Zong Ruoan was being very subtle, but Quan Yuxun was speechless.
He sat upright in his seat, with the "Quan Yuxun's Smile" that the world was familiar with on his face, looking at Zong Ruoan's face on the virtual display screen, which was more handsome than a woman's, and said, "Ruoan, what you said is an insult to First Lieutenant Xia, and also an insult to me."
Zong Ruoan and Quan Yuxun had been friends for many years, and had never heard him say such serious words, and was a little hesitant for a moment.
Was he really wrong?
But this matter is too important to him...
He didn't think it didn't matter whether he was elected or not, as Grand Princess Tantai Jinyu said.
He cares a lot about this election, and he must be elected.
Zong Ruoan looked at Quan Yuxun and asked tentatively, "Then these results, did Chujian really get them herself?!"
"Her grades were obviously very bad..."
Quan Yuxun still smiled and said, "I'm not familiar with First Lieutenant Xia. I don't know what her previous grades were like. I only know that anyone who wants to cheat in the Beichen Empire National Higher Education Entrance Examination will not escape the pursuit of the Special Security Bureau and the Royal Inner Guard."
"Ruoan, I have a meeting, talk to you later."
Quan Yuxun said, and turned off the video call with Zong Ruoan.
His good mood was disturbed by Zong Ruoan.
Quan Yuxun took a deep breath and directly sent Xia Chujian a congratulatory message.
[Qilin]: Yuanbao, congratulations on winning the National Higher Education Entrance Examination! A small gift will be offered soon!
On Xia Chujian's Quantum Optical Brain, congratulatory messages were coming one after another.
For people she wasn't familiar with, she replied "Thank you!" uniformly.
For people she was familiar with, she replied a little longer.
For example, she replied to Master Su Buyan's congratulatory message with a whole sentence! Now that she saw Quan Yuxun's congratulatory message, she also replied a little longer.
After all, they were business partners, and they still had to maintain a good business relationship.
[Yuanbao]: It's rare to receive a blessing from the Qilin Child! You're too kind!
Then, there was Zong Ruoan's congratulatory message.
[Zong Ruoan]: Chujian, congratulations on winning the National Higher Education Entrance Examination! I know how important this is to you!
[Zong Ruoan]: Are you home these days? I have something I need your help with, wait for me.
Xia Chujian felt inexplicable when she saw Zong Ruoan's two messages.
What kind of virtue or ability did she have to help this Zong Family noble son...
But if Zong Ruoan needed her help, then she would definitely do her part! Therefore, she also replied to him politely.
[Xia Chujian]: Thank you, Young Master Zong! Then I'll be waiting for you!
Then, the Principal, Dean of Studies, and the temporary Class Teacher of Mulan City No. 1 High School sent congratulatory messages.
The Principal was even trying his best to persuade her to apply for Beichen University, adding a weighty honor to Mulan City No. 1 High School!
Xia Chujian just brushed it off with a smile.
Soon, Meng Guanghui's video call invitation also arrived.
Xia Chujian thought for a moment, then returned to her bedroom before clicking to connect.
She used a virtual background for the call with Meng Guanghui, because she felt a little embarrassed to use her own bedroom as the background.
Meng Guanghui looked happy and said, "Chujian, you are really amazing! You actually got the Empire Top Scorer!"
Xia Chujian said with a smile, "Thank you for the encouragement, leader! I just got lucky... hahahaha... I usually don't do well in exams, it's just the National Higher Education Entrance Examination..."
Meng Guanghui's teeth ached listening to her, and his mouth twitched. He said, "You're showing off too much. It's only because I don't hold it against you. Anyone else would be annoyed!"
Xia Chujian said with a smile, "I only say this in front of the leader. I wouldn't talk like this in front of others!"
Meng Guanghui nodded with a smile, "That's good! That's good!"
"By the way, I'm here to ask you, which university are you planning to apply to? With your grades, you can choose any university in the country!"
"However, I still want to recommend my alma mater, and Marshal Huo's and Xiao Kang's alma mater, the Imperial Royal First Military University!"
"Especially its Star Destroyer Command major, which is known as the cradle of the Empire's Marshals!"
"Because all five of our Empire's current Marshals graduated from this university and this major!"
Xia Chujian smiled slightly and said, "Leader, are there any preferential policies for me to attend this university and this major with my grades? Like tuition waivers, full scholarships, and stuff like that..."
Meng Guanghui laughed loudly, "That's for sure! Didn't you know? Any university offers tuition waivers and full scholarships to the Empire Top Scorer!"
"Some schools even offer extra high scholarships, just to attract the Top Scorer to study at their school!"
Xia Chujian said "Oh" and became even more interested, saying, "Does this Imperial First Military University have a high extra scholarship?"
Meng Guanghui said with a smile, "Definitely! Marshal Huo entered this major with the highest score in the entire Empire back then."
"In addition to tuition waivers and full scholarships, he also received an extra scholarship of 100,000 Beichen Coins!"
Xia Chujian's eyes lit up: "Marshal Huo went to university more than ten years ago, right?"
Meng Guanghui said, "Yes, Marshal Huo went to university at the age of twelve."
Xia Chujian: "..."
Alas, she would never be able to catch up with Huo Yushen in this regard...
Xia Chujian sighed and continued to ask, "Then this extra scholarship should also be adjusted according to inflation, right?"
Meng Guanghui laughed until tears came out, saying, "As long as you are willing to apply for this major, I will help you pass the word!"
Xia Chujian nodded repeatedly, "Then thank you, leader!"
After Meng Guanghui finished talking with her, Xia Chujian pushed the door open and went out.
Xia Yuanfang, Aunt Chen, and Zhu Yingying were still in the living room, discussing which university Xia Chujian should apply to.
But almost at the same time, the admissions offices of the top ten universities in the Beichen Empire sent video call invitations to Xia Chujian.
Xia Chujian looked at these invitations and had to return to her room again, first clicking on Beichen University.
After all, it was the number one university in the Beichen Empire in terms of comprehensive ranking. Every Beichen student had dreamed of the day they would be admitted to Beichen University when they were in school...
Xia Chujian was no exception.
Although she had always been a poor student, even poor students had dreams of attending top universities.
After the video call connected, the person on the other side was a middle-aged man in his forties.
He had a little less hair on his head, wore round-framed glasses, and said with a smile, "You are Xia Chujian? Nice to meet you!"
Xia Chujian said with a smile, "Hello, are you the person in charge of the admissions office of Beichen University?"
The man nodded and said very frankly, "I am inspecting the work of the admissions office on Shaofu Star today."
"We were also very surprised to find that this year's Empire Top Scorer is actually from Guiyuan Star."
"In the past ten years, no one from Guiyuan Star has been admitted to Beichen University, and even very few people have been admitted to universities in Beichen."
"So our school hasn't specifically sent anyone to Guiyuan Star for admissions in seven or eight years."
"Otherwise, I would have paid a personal visit."
Xia Chujian had a good impression of this person and said with a smile, "You're too kind. Guiyuan Star's performance hasn't been great in the last decade or so. I'm just trying my luck this time."
That person laughed heartily: "Student Xia, you're too modest! It's one thing to get into a local university by luck, but who gets into the top university in the entire Empire by luck?!—It all depends on talent!"
Xia Chujian smiled without saying a word, thinking to herself, what is her talent? Does she not know?
That person continued to speak eloquently: "A genius like you should come to Beichen University!"
"Only Beichen University has the ability to give a genius a true genius education!"
"Our slogan is, 'We won't let a genius be buried in the dust!'"
"Only at Beichen University can a genius unleash their true potential and reach new heights!"
After saying these impassioned words, the person realized that Xia Chujian was not as enthusiastic as she had been at the beginning.
She smiled politely and said, "Thank you for your explanation, but I don't think Beichen University is suitable for me. Please continue with your work, I need to take the second video call."
After Xia Chujian finished speaking, she hung up the video call with the person in charge of the Beichen University admissions office.
The person stared blankly at the virtual display in front of them, completely unable to believe that someone had actually hung up on the person in charge of the Beichen University admissions office! Who did she think she was, the Beichen Emperor?! The person's gentle smile turned gloomy in an instant, and they felt they had lost a lot of face.
Xia Chujian, however, felt that she was not a genius at all, but had "luckily" achieved "top in the country" because her Aunt had given her the key points to focus on.
It really was luck...
If she really went to a top university that relied purely on brainpower and competed with real academic giants, she would definitely be at a loss.
Talking to this person only confirmed her point of view, and of course, she crossed Beichen University off her list.
She was telling the truth, but this person didn't believe her.
And this person was the head of the Beichen University admissions office, their brain wasn't very good either.
Xia Chujian complained in her heart, but her hands didn't stop, and she accepted the video call invitation from the person in charge of the Imperial Royal First Military University admissions office.
