Imperial University moves very quickly; the results were displayed on the big screen at the school gate on the third day after the exams.

Upon receiving the news, the group rushed to check their results. Yi Xuan, however, was not in a hurry; he had been dragged there by Li Lin and the others.

Along the way, the three of them kept asking Yi Xuan the same question, "Brother Yi, do you think I can get into the second round of interviews?"

Having listened to the three of them discuss questions all night at the tavern the night before, Yi Xuan naturally knew that their level was not a problem and they would definitely be able to enter the second round of the exam.

So he comforted the three of them the whole way.

After finally arriving at the school gate, the three of them calmed down and looked at Yi Xuan with some embarrassment.

I never imagined that the three of us who had studied for almost a year were less open-minded than Yi Xuan, who had never studied at all.

The three of them then bowed to Yi Xuan in gratitude, before squeezing into the crowd to check their scores.

Looking at the huge crowd at the results inquiry area, Yi Xuan finally gave up the idea of going forward.

Finding a secluded spot, he flicked his wrist, and the holographic projection on the bracelet appeared. At the same time, No. 01's voice rang in his ears.

"Boss, what can I do for you?"

"Is the Imperial University system independent, or is it also under your control?"

"It's independent. As per your previous request, Xia Kingdom's education system is managed by independent artificial intelligence. Therefore, even I don't have permission to access it. You said that only without external interference can education return to its essence!"

Hearing this, Yi Xuan nodded and said, "Hmm, not bad!"

Yi Xuan originally wanted No. 01 to help him access the education system to check his grades, since he didn't want to squeeze into the crowd and get covered in sweat.

Unexpectedly, before Yi Xuan could even speak, No. 01 used a phrase that Yi Xuan himself had once said to shut him up.

If we force No. 01 to help check the grades in this situation, wouldn't that be contradicting ourselves?

Helpless, Yi Xuan had no choice but to turn off the bracelet. Then, looking at the surging crowd, she gritted her teeth and walked over.

Just as he was about to enter the crowd, he was pulled back by a hand.

Suddenly, Li Lin and his two companions emerged from the crowd. Han Yong, holding a slip of paper, exaggeratedly exclaimed to Yi Xuan as he read it, "Brother Yi, I didn't expect you to be so talented! Your score is significantly higher than ours!"

Yi Xuan received the note, which read:

Name: Yi Xuan.

Candidate number: 8415463.

Score: 213 (out of 300)

Initial test status: Passed.

Interview status: Incomplete.

Of course, Yi Xuan couldn't have gotten only a little over 200 points on a test of this level. It's just that he didn't want to attract attention, so he deliberately made a lot of mistakes in his answers.

Through his conversation with the three, Yi Xuan also learned their scores.

Li Lin: 205 points, Huang Ju: 189 points, Han Yong: 199 points.

The passing score for the preliminary test was 180 points, so even Huang Ju, who had the lowest score among the group, successfully entered the second round of testing.

Because the group had gotten completely drunk the day before, they didn't celebrate after learning their results. Instead, they all returned to their accommodation and began preparing for the subsequent interviews.

The next day, when the group arrived at Imperial University, they discovered that all four of them were taking the same exam.

Upon entering the classroom, I saw five teachers already seated on the platform, and the classroom below was packed with students who had made it to the second round of interviews. At first glance, there were hardly any empty seats left in the entire classroom.

The four of them quickly separated and each found a seat.

After the last student entered the classroom, the teacher on the stage announced the start of the second round of interviews.

After that, each time, five students would be called to the front of the class for a second interview, while the other students would watch from their seats.

As the interviewees left one after another, the students who hadn't yet taken their interviews were all incredibly nervous.

Yi Xuan was the only one who seemed to be there as a visitor. While everyone else was busy reviewing their books, he was very interested in the interview process on the stage and kept staring at it.

Huang Ju, who was not far away, also noticed Yi Xuan's state and assumed that Yi Xuan could only look at the podium because he did not have any review materials. So he passed Yi Xuan one of his own review materials.

Upon receiving the basic physics book, Yi Xuan was both amused and exasperated. Looking up at Huang Ju, he discovered that Huang Ju had actually given him a thumbs-up gesture. Besides feeling helpless, Yi Xuan also felt a touch of gratitude.

At that moment, Liang Shi, who was reviewing the preliminary exam papers in his office, suddenly stopped moving.

He saw that the name Yi Xuan was clearly written on the exam paper.

Somewhat disbelieving, Liang Shi looked at the paper several more times, then shook his head helplessly and headed straight for the palace with the paper in his hand.

Although the score on this exam was not high, Liang Shi was still able to confirm from the notes that the examinee was his master.

When his mentor, who had been gone for a year, reappeared, Liang Shi couldn't wait to go to Zhuo Ning to discuss countermeasures.

It wasn't that he wanted to deal with Yi Xuan, but rather that he and Zhuo Ning were currently undecided about many decisions. Now that Yi Xuan had appeared, they could sort out these uncertainties and go find Yi Xuan together.

The re-examination process was quite fast; the teachers were all technicians who used to work at nuclear power plants, following behind robots.

After a year of instruction from those robots, they had acquired the ability to teach students. Therefore, after a month of intensive training, Liang Shi transferred them all to Imperial University.

Meanwhile, another batch of new trainees successfully moved into the nuclear power plant.

"Yi Xuan! Li Lin! Huang Ju! Han Yong! Wang Jinshan! Come up for the second round of interviews!"

Upon hearing the teacher's words, Yi Xuan quickly followed the others to sit down in front of the podium.

After asking a few basic questions, one of the teachers wrote a formula on the blackboard and asked the students to explain it.

Looking at the formula, the others were completely bewildered, because they had never seen this formula before.

Seeing the students' expressions, the teacher quickly explained that the answer to this question would not be counted in the retest score, which reassured them considerably.

So everyone shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know the meaning of the formula.

Only Yi Xuan, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the formula, asked, "Did you derive this yourself?"

The teacher hadn't expected that instead of answering his question, the student would pose a question to him.

However, having had experience with nuclear power plants, the teacher humbly nodded to Yi Xuan and said, "Yes, student, is there a problem? Can you explain this formula clearly?"

Yi Xuan nodded, but didn't explain. Instead, he asked, "Isn't there something missing in your formula?"

After saying that, he picked up a pen and began writing on the blackboard.

As more and more formulas and calculations appeared on the blackboard, the teacher who had asked the question earlier was speechless with astonishment.

After Yi Xuan finished writing the last symbol, he turned to the teacher and asked, "Teacher, is this the complete formula?"

Unexpectedly, the teacher looked at Yi Xuan, "Don't call me teacher, I'm not worthy!"
