Chapter 1050: Chapter 1050: Si Fuqing Was Just Taking the Exam for Fun, Confrontation (2)

Once there was any unusual movement, these floating spirits would be the first to engage in battle on her behalf.

“Grandma, did you come out this time without anyone from the In family accompanying you?” Si Fuqing asked with a serious expression. “Uncle and the others are all doing well, so there’s no need for you to take such a big risk coming out.”

“It’s alright, it’s alright,” Old Madam In reassured her. “Someone from the In family is here as a judge, so I had a legitimate excuse to come and see you.” She held Si Fuqing’s hand warmly. “Participating in the international joint examination, Grandma is so proud of you.”

When Old Madam In first saw the list of participants for the international joint examination, she could hardly believe it. After confirming that it wasn’t just someone with the same name, she hurried over as quickly as she could.

Si Fuqing nodded. “I see. Grandma, has your power been stable these past few months?”

“No incidents at all. The medicine you gave me works wonderfully,” Old Madam In responded, then asked with concern, “Qingqing, are you planning to join the Intercontinental Research Institute after the exam?”

...

The Free State had two major academic institutions: the Intercontinental Research Institute and Eternal Academy.

The former was a haven for genius madmen.

The latter was a paradise for those with violent tendencies.

While the Intercontinental Research Institute was known for its mad scientists, it was not necessarily weaker in combat than Eternal Academy.

The machines they created could even handle Class S evolved beings.

“No, not really,” Si Fuqing replied casually. “I’m just taking the exam for fun.”

Old Madam In blinked, momentarily stunned, but her strong heart quickly recovered. “Well, that’s fine too. The Intercontinental Research Institute can be quite dangerous. But if you score well in the international joint examination, it will help smooth things over when you return to the In family.”

Si Fuqing smiled slightly. “Soon, I’ll be back.”

At present, she already possessed the strength of an Class A evolved being, and even some Class S evolved beings were no match for her.

Old Madam In sat down, and Si Fuqing took a bite of the pastry. “Grandma, does the In family have anyone in the Intercontinental Research Institute?”

“Not really,” Old Madam In said. “Yunxi has helped out there, occasionally accompanying a professor from the Biochemical Institute.”

In Yunxi, the eldest daughter of the In family.

She was a Class S evolved being, though her combat strength was not high.

Her evolved genes granted her high intelligence and powerful healing and regenerative abilities.

After the In family lost the two brothers, In Beichen and In Yaonian, it was In Yunxi who emerged as a beacon of hope.

In these times, doctors were the most valuable assets.

Si Fuqing fell into deep thought.

She had heard of In Yunxi in her previous life.

In Yunxi, together with Kusonoki Akatsuki and Odile Lotebar, was known as one of the genius girls in the evolved being world.

The three of them had also studied together at Eternal Academy.

However, since In Yunxi couldn’t fight, Si Fuqing had never interacted with her.

“But she can only heal injuries. If an evolved being’s power goes out of control, she’s helpless,” Old Madam In said as she gently patted Si Fuqing’s head. “My granddaughter is truly amazing.”

There wasn’t another divine doctor in the evolution community who could suppress the rampaging powers of evolved beings like Si Fuqing could.

Old Madam In continued, “Qingqing, I heard the Ye family has produced a psychic Class A evolved being. Did you help stabilize her bloodline?”

Si Fuqing didn’t hide the truth. “Yes, I did.”

“No wonder,” Old Madam In nodded. “I suspected it was you. Luckily, the lab people didn’t find out.”

Si Fuqing raised an eyebrow. “I’m just a celebrity. Why would they come after me?”

What did the Heavenly Doctor Ghosthand have to do with Si Fuqing?

She was just a humble worker in the entertainment industry.

Old Madam In nodded in agreement.

She had initially thought that Si Fuqing’s life in the entertainment industry was too exhausting, but now it seemed that this was actually her greatest protection.

The most important thing was that she was eagerly awaiting the drama “The Nation’s Heroine” and could hardly wait for it to air.

Being a fan of Si Fuqing’s work was truly a challenging ordeal.@@novelbin@@

The international joint examination only tested three subjects: Mathematics, Physics, and Biochemistry.

Biochemistry was a combination of biology and chemistry.

These three subjects were covered in a single exam, lasting four and a half hours, from 2:00 PM to 6:30 PM.

After all, the international joint examination was essentially a selection process for the Free State’s Intercontinental Research Institute, choosing the best talents from around the world, and these were the most fundamental subjects.

Outside the examination hall, Ji Longtai and his wife were sending Ji Qingwei in.

“Qingwei, don’t put too much pressure on yourself,” Mrs. Ji said with a smile. “Above the Cloud has three chip designs in the works, and the other two were created by senior researchers. You don’t need to worry about anyone else; they can’t compare to you.”

No matter how strong Si Fuqing was, could she design a chip like Ji Qingwei?

Ji Qingwei forced a smile, but her face looked a bit pale.

She took a deep breath, trying to push all other thoughts out of her mind as she walked into the exam hall.

The seating arrangements were completely random, and Ji Qingwei was the only candidate from the Great Xia Empire in her hall.

This was her first time participating in such a large-scale exam.

Although the Ji family had hired many tutors for Ji Qingwei over the years, she had never really socialized.

Now, being in a room with so many people, Ji Qingwei was starting to feel nervous, her hand trembling as she tried to hold her pen.

She closed her eyes and repeatedly told herself not to be nervous—perhaps fate would be on her side.

After calming herself down this way, Ji Qingwei did manage to relax a little.

Each exam hall had thirty students, with four invigilators, and cameras were installed in all four corners.

The necessary equipment, such as signal jammers, was also present, making cheating impossible.

Si Fuqing was assigned to Exam Hall 1. When the exam bell rang, she casually twirled her pen before leisurely starting to answer the questions.

She wrote quickly, yet her handwriting was neat and beautiful.

An hour and forty minutes later, Si Fuqing raised her hand.

The invigilator noticed her and frowned. “You can’t leave for the restroom, and you can’t borrow anything. What do you need?”

These rules had been repeatedly emphasized before the exam, so why was someone still breaking them?

All eyes in the room turned toward the girl.

Si Fuqing spoke with a lazy tone, “I’m done. I want to submit my paper.”
