The projects had already been completed by the teams in advance.
The final round was for the teams to present their research results.
The audience stood in the designated area to look at the research projects.
Qin Hanqiu, Qin Ling, and Butler Qin woke up early. They called Tang Jun.
Tang Jun arrived at the hotel at 8:30 am in a limousine. Elder Li was driving the car. He opened the door and saw Qin Hanqiu approaching in a hurry. He smiled and said, "Second Master, there's no need to hurry. It's still early."
Elder Li waited for the trio to take a seat. Looking at the rearview mirror, he started the car."What's the competition's location?"
Although they talked about visiting Tang Jun's grandniece at the competition two days ago, Elder Li didn't take it to heart and thus did not ask for the location.
"Wait." Qin Hanqiu took out his phone to look for a message from Cheng Juan. He read out the address after confirming it.
The address was simple. It was at Continent M's Research Institute in Matthew's territory.
Qin Hanqiu didn't fully understand Continent M's different forces, but Elder Li and Tang Jun were familiar with them.
Hearing the address, Elder Li's hands stopped. He thought that the competition was similar to an olympiad which would be held near the fringes. The address was unexpectedly so near to Matthew's building.
"Are you sure this address is correct?" Elder Li looked at the rearview mirror again in doubt.
Even Tang Jun was curious.
Qin Hanqiu looked at the address again. He nodded and said, "Yes."
Elder Li didn't ask further. In 10 minutes, they arrived at the location.
Tang Jun and the others did not study physics, so they didn't know the meaning of "ICNE" that was written on the building. However, they were familiar with the research institute.
"So it's a competition held by the research institute..." Elder Li was surprised.
He followed Qin Hanqiu and the others inside.
As the tickets were limited, the audience was mostly students from famous universities. They were dressed in their school uniforms.
They were mostly top university students.
Top students were everywhere.
Elder Li walked among these talented students and felt slightly pressurized.
At 9 am.
All one hundred teams had finished their preparations.
The country leaders dispersed, and the committee members looked at the project content and presentations one by one. National defense rescue intelligence creation with the integration of nuclear reactor rays...
This highly challenging central topic was set by a group of researchers last year.
The committee and judging team walked down the aisle to the next team after finishing with one. They looked at the list while walking.
Luo En and Mi Luo were part of the list.
There were almost five hundred people, and Luo En randomly flipped through the contestant list. He was looking at the contestant's age instead of the project content.
They were mostly 26 to 31-year-old graduate doctoral students.
He scanned the list quickly.
On the second last page, he was just about to flip again when he saw something, and his hands froze.
This team... was a little arrogant.
They also had five people, but their ages were outrageous!
Three of them were 19, 20, and 27 years old respectively...
Other than the last member, the rest wasn't normal!
Luo En froze.
One must be capable enough to enroll for the ICNE competition.
He turned his gaze to the particulars of the team members.
"Continent M's Beijing University team?" Luo En looked at the names of the five members."Why have I not heard of them in the previous competitions? Mi Luo, take a look at this team. They are even more extraordinary than your previous team."
Luo En passed the list to him.
Although Mi Luo was 18 years old when he entered the competition, his four other team members were normal. They were exemplary, and Mi Luo could match up to them.
Looking at the team, four members were similar to Mi Luo's age back then...
Luo En hadn't heard of the only normal member.
Mi Luo's expression turned solemn. He leaned in and looked over. The four unique team members did not catch his attention. He wanted to replicate Mi Luo's success, but it was extremely rare for someone to reach such a standard at 18 years old.
In the end, the project ranking was the most important.
In Beijing University's Dean's eyes, getting into the top 30 would be an impressive feat. However, to Mi Luo and Luo En, they had to be top 3 to be recognized.
Mi Luo casually took a glance and was about to turn back.
But as his eyes spotted Qin Ran's name, his hands paused.
"What's wrong?" Luo En was curious about his reaction."Can we look forward to this team?"
Mi Luo pointed to Qin Ran's name with his fingertips while flipping through the details."This is the person who achieved 50% energy conversion previously."
The SCI thesis papers were sent to Continent M's research institute for approval.
When the data was first produced, the researchers in the laboratory were stunned.
Luo En recalled this incident. He froze, then nodded."We can pay more attention to them later. But... her teammates are dragging her down. How did Beijing University allocate the teams?"
He flipped through the resume of the four other members. The 27-year-old member was capable, but the other three were complete newcomers who did not have a decent SCI thesis.
Mi Luo frowned with regret.
Other than personal capabilities, it was important to have equally good teammates. Why did Beijing University allocate three newcomers to drag her down...
He pursed his lips."If only..."
