Chapter 627 - Cozy Up to Someone Powerful

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

There were many poor scholars in the scientific research field. They really loved scientific research and had no pursuit of money.

However, it was impossible for the scientific research community to not earn money. Everyone still remembered the billion-dollar project a while back.

“I really hope that we will meet the team next door in the next round,” someone said softly.

However, when Xu Xianing heard this, her expression did not look too good.

With a dark expression, she clenched her fists.

Song Yao was really lucky. Not only could she participate in the competition out of nowhere, but she could even be assigned to be an individual international candidate.

…

At the same time.

Yu Ling, who was also looking forward to Xu Xianing and Song Yao’s competition, found that something was wrong.

An hour had passed and they still had not seen Song Yao and Xu Xianing.

What was going on??

Yu Ling regained her senses and immediately returned to the backstage to check the information. She found that Song Yao and Xu Xianing’s team had advanced directly!?

Her expression changed, not knowing what was going on. Then, she said in a sweet voice, “Teacher, there seems to be two groups that didn’t have a competition and advanced directly.”

“Oh, you’re talking about this? There’s an individual international candidate in our competition this time. Her team will advance directly, and so will her opponent.”

The teacher said carelessly.

However, when Yu Ling heard this, she almost couldn’t keep her expression straight anymore.

What kind of luck did Song Yao have??

She actually encountered such a good thing!?

“However, this is rare too. It’s rare to meet an individual international candidate.”

“After all, an individual international candidate will advance to the third round directly. If there are a few more individual international candidates, there’s no way to compete.”

Yu Ling suddenly had a bad feeling as she checked the next round of competition. It was still Song Yao’s team.

But a few seconds later.

Song Yao’s team was skipped and advanced again.

The individual international candidate was in Song Yao’s team?!

Yu Ling’s expression was terrible.

After these three rounds, Song Yao had gotten lucky with the rankings.

Yu Ling took a deep breath as anger surged in her chest. She never thought that Song Yao would be so lucky.

…

About an hour later.

Song Yao’s team finally appeared.

Coincidentally, they still bumped into Xu Xianing’s team.

However, Xu Xianing’s expression did not look too good.

Their team had to win two competitions before they could advance. But what about Song Yao??

She advanced so easily.

Xu Xianing met Song Yao backstage and laughed coldly. “Your luck is really good. I wonder how you managed to cozy up to someone powerful.”

With that said…

Xu Xianing left, while the people in Song Yao’s team were confused.

What did she mean by Song Yao was sucking up to someone powerful? It was obvious that they were the one cozying up to someone powerful.

This round of competition started.

Xu Xianing’s team was the first to appear. Because Xu Xianing had an artiste sister, she was considered a public figure.

Many people in the venue were cheering for Xu Xianing. There were even fans of Xu Xianing’s sister who specially came to hold banners.

Xu Xianing lifted her chin and accepted these gaze naturally.

At this moment, Yu Ling, who had been waiting for Song Yao’s competition, was also staring fixedly at the calm Song Yao backstage.

Didn’t Song Yao feel inferior?

But she had already become a pile of mud that anyone could step on. Why was she still raising her pride as the Elder Young Miss?

Yu Ling clenched her fists unconsciously.

Seeing that Song Yao was still calm and composed despite the awkwardness of having no one to support her, she looked forward to seeing this Elder Young Miss being stepped on even more ruthlessly.

Suddenly.

A whistle could be heard above the empty field.
