Chapter 1219: Chapter 1219: Exposed
"Last time the America Team’s Thomas scored a total of eight hundred points to rank first, and the top score of seven hundred and ninety from the time before was achieved by Heisen. I wonder what the highest score will be this time. I’m really looking forward to it," said old David with a hint of anticipation.
After all, this conference is meant to facilitate exchanges for the advancement of human medicine and provide all doctors with a learning platform.
"Well, let’s see, who is currently ranked first?"
Mike also wanted to check, so he made the suggestion.
The assistant quickly opened the screen in the meeting room.
The large screen displayed the rankings of the top one hundred.
"Currently, the first place is contestant number 955 from the China Team, with a total score of six hundred and fifty-nine points. The second place is contestant number 059 from the America Delegation, with a total score... huh, only three hundred and fifty points, and the third place is contestant number 013 from the UK team, with three hundred points..."
David was stunned.
"That’s such a big gap? It’s nearly double. What’s going on?"
This was a scenario no one had expected.
"Contestant from the China Team?"
"Impossible, right?"
The assistant said in surprise, "Within just a minute, the first place has added fifteen points, almost solving a question every five seconds."
This speed is too astonishing.
Smith was also taken aback.
This speed was simply bewildering.
Five seconds is just barely enough to read the questions, let alone think through them.
Does this person not even need to think?
"How’s their accuracy?"
That’s what everyone wants to know, because if it’s just luck, there might be good fortune involved.
They’ve encountered luck-based successes before.
In the fifth session of the conference, they encountered a contestant who was a luck king!
The participant answered all questions within an hour, with a surprising accuracy rate of sixty percent, relying entirely on luck.
Hopefully not another one!
They couldn’t help but recall the treasure box session, where the luck of the China Team was beyond expectation.
Not another repeat, right?
"Accuracy is one hundred percent!" said the assistant, almost lost for words.
This defies logic.
"What? One hundred percent?"
Everyone became unsettled.
"Who is this person?"
They had access to the candidate’s information backstage, Smith and Mike couldn’t help but twitch their eyelids. Could it be who they thought it was?
If it’s Bai Xiao, then it’s over.
Their plan was to quietly recruit this person without alerting everyone.
But if Bai Xiao became instantly famous, everyone would know about this figure, and who wouldn’t be tempted?
Smith couldn’t guarantee that his intentions wouldn’t be discovered by other predecessors, but the real question was who wouldn’t be tempted by such a genius.
Smith smiled bitterly, having a bad feeling that it was definitely Bai Xiao.
"Name: Bai Xiao!"
Smith closed his eyes at the assistant’s words. Bai Xiao, can you take the exam normally?
Why cause such a spectacle during your exam?
Even if you are a genius, can you be considerate of others?
David was surprised.
"Who is this Bai Xiao?"
"He is the captain of the China Team this time."
"What was their preliminary ranking?"
That was what everyone cared about.
Who wouldn’t want to ponder such talent?
"Preliminary ranking was only eight hundred and thirtieth."
With this statement, Smith beamed with joy.
He clearly understood the situation at the time. Bai Xiao didn’t fall short of entering the top one hundred; he went back to find his team.
Otherwise, Bai Xiao could easily rank among the top three hundred.
This was after helping other members of the team achieve results.
"No way, so far back in the rankings?" David was puzzled.
Generally, such talents should stand out conspicuously, how could their preliminary results not be exceptional?
"Probably because Bai Xiao is good at rote learning! The preliminary rounds also test everyone’s adaptability, but Bai Xiao couldn’t do well in that area," Smith subtly guessed, diverting everyone’s attention.
David nodded, acknowledging that China is nearly unmatched in rote learning. However, this competition’s content included many dynamic and misleading questions requiring extensive practical basis, otherwise one would only stare blindly.
Furthermore, the range involved was vast, covering almost every department, making it a high-demand medical competition.
"That’s not the case; Bai Xiao’s low preliminary ranking had its reasons. I saw it at the time, and even Dr. Smith and others noticed that Bai Xiao came back alone after finishing his task for ranking, only to find their vice captain had abandoned all team members to rank alone.
He is someone with principles and responsibility! He went back again to find his teammates and helped them complete the task before returning; otherwise, Bai Xiao’s ranking would certainly be in the top three hundred, considering they had two team members enter the top hundred.
If not for looking after his teammates, Bai Xiao’s results wouldn’t be like this," said the assistant standing up for Bai Xiao.
"If you doubt this, you can ask Dr. Smith and Dr. Mike; they were first there watching the full screen with other members of the judging team."
The young assistant didn’t understand Smith’s intense blinking, wondering if Dr. Smith was having some eye spasms?
Smith gave an awkward laugh.
This thoroughly exposed the truth.
David quickly caught on, an old pro. He immediately understood what Smith intended to do.
This was a move of ’act quickly and decisively.’
"Dr. Smith, this is your fault. We are judges, and we cannot have any bias, otherwise we’ll lose everyone’s trust," David said sternly, with his gray beard twitching angrily, appearing intimidating.
Smith smiled bitterly, "Dr. David, I didn’t mean any harm; I just wanted to see how far she could go. I’ve worked on a surgery with Dr. Bai, and I think highly of her, but I won’t show favoritism."
At this point, no words could change anything.
The looks in the other judges’ eyes showed eagerness, clearly indicating all the focus had shifted.
Maybe nobody noticed Bai Xiao before.
But from this moment onward, everyone was focused on the Chinese doctor named Bai Xiao.
Smith sighed.
"Hmpf, Dr. Smith, I hope you remember your identity and duties."
David pretended to be severe, but who could know his heart was dancing with joy.
Had it not been for Smith’s secrecy, he might not have spotted such a talent.
This trip proved its worth.
