The three of them looked around the venue and casually found seats in the audience. They all turned their gazes to Mo Zhu, who was gathering the group members below the stage and giving orders seriously.
At this moment, Mo Zhu was discussing the tactics of the second round with the other four members of the group with a serious expression.
After the first round of the individual competition, Mo Zhu had undoubtedly gotten the first place in the entire competition with her extremely fast answering time and accurate answering steps. Furthermore, according to the news revealed by the teacher in the marking group, she was the only one who had gotten full marks.
As for the second round of the team competition, which was different from the individual competition, it did not only test everyone’s mathematics knowledge and thinking when solving questions. After careful research by special teachers from various countries, every member of the group had to participate. If any step was missing, it would delay the calculation time of the entire group and there was a high chance that they would fall behind the other groups.
It was precisely because of this that so many groups had applied for a temporary reshuffle before the examination. After all, the Mathematics competition was held especially formally and the rewards were generous. Everyone wanted to return to their country with good results and contribute to the future development of the country’s Mathematics field.
After calling the others in the group to her side, Mo Zhu looked up and glanced at Meng Ran and Zhang Qi. She said indifferently, “When the bell rings for the questions to be answered later, the three of us will be responsible for writing the steps to solve the questions. The two of you only need to calculate the final results and arrange the correct order of steps and answers on the paper.”
After a pause, Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows and continued asking, “How is it? Do you understand my arrangements?”
After completing the first round of high-intensity questions and as they were about to enter the second round of the competition, Meng Ran and Zhang Qi were in a daze at that moment.
The two of them had a weaker foundation than the other top students. They had never done so many difficult questions in one go before.
Now that he was suddenly asked by Mo Zhu to plan for the following competition arrangements, Zhang Qi was stunned for a long time before he scratched his head and replied, “Sure, I can calculate the data and organize the answers. Although my brain is indeed a little tired and dizzy now, it’s not to the extent that I can’t even calculate a few numbers!”
Upon hearing Zhang Qi’s words, Meng Ran touched her chin and came back to her senses. She nodded vigorously and replied, “No problem, Sister Mo. Just list your formulas. As long as it’s knowledge I’ve come into contact with before, I’ll definitely give you a 100% correct answer!”
When Mo Zhu heard this, she pursed her lips and turned her head to look at Xing Meng and Jiang Yu on the other side. Although these two people did not have as much knowledge as her, they had also obtained high marks in the first round of questions.
After coughing lightly twice, Mo Zhu said in a low voice, “When we get the test questions later, I’ll arrange the steps and knowledge used to solve the questions on the draft paper. The two of you will be in charge of listing the specific formulas. Then, leave the rest to Meng Ran and Zhang Qi.”
After a few seconds of pause, before the two of them could reply, Mo Zhu frowned slightly and added, “If there are no special situations and accidents, answering the questions like this will save the most time and be the most efficient. Do the few of you have any better ideas?”
Everyone usually listened to Mo Zhu, so they had no objections now. At this moment, even Xing Meng was united with them.
After the tactical discussion, a few minutes later, under the lead of the teacher at the venue, the various groups arrived at the round table that the organizing committee had specially prepared for everyone to answer questions more conveniently.
After distributing the exam papers and draft papers for the second round of the competition which was to be done in teams, the invigilator announced the official start of the team competition.
