Chapter 75 Second Round Results!

  Zhang Shoucai's sudden exclamation of "靠" was so earth-shattering that it stunned the other judges, who immediately gathered around him. After seeing Chu Nan's answer sheet, they looked at it word by word, and the more they looked, the more shocked they became. Their expressions became increasingly exaggerated, with one of the usually dignified judges staring blankly and stuttering: "L...leaked...the questions?"

  Zhang Shoucai also swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva, he had lived long enough in this life, and had seen enough, but he had never seen such a strange scene before. After hearing the judge's words, Zhang Shoucai sighed and said: "Today's questions were all unknown to us beforehand, we only knew them after arriving here, who could have leaked the questions? Could it be the North Medical Association? That is absolutely impossible..."

  The judge who just spoke, opened his mouth and then closed it again. Zhang Shoucai was right, the management of the Northern Medical Association is very strict, and few people would know what the exam questions are beforehand. Even someone as prestigious as Zhang Shoucai didn't find out about the exam questions beforehand, let alone Chu Nan. Unless Chu Nan is the son of the president of the Northern Medical Association, but that's impossible!

  How could he possibly... how could he have answered so many correctly?

  Chen Tianling only felt that his lips were a bit dry, licked his own lips, still with an incredulous face, and thought that the strangest thing in the world was nothing more than this.

  A group of judges finally calmed down and determined the scores and rankings of all participants, then handed over the results to Zhao Dejiang. Zhao Dejiang took the test papers off the judges' table and stood in front of the students who had returned from the rest room. All the audience felt that Zhao Dejiang's expression was not calm, including those watching the live broadcast on TV, which caused many people to whisper to each other.

  Zhao Dejiang's gaze swept around the room, then he cleared his throat and said: "The previous link was not easy for anyone, including us old guys, so we understand that some contestants gave up on this round of exams. However, there were still some contestants whose performance exceeded our judges' expectations, now I'll talk about it first."

  "Firstly, there were thirty contestants in total this round, with half of them being disqualified and scored zero. Among the seven contestants who only answered three components correctly, they are Zhang Taodong, Li Jingyu...... The seven of you tied for ninth place in this round."

  The students who were just mentioned, each had different expressions. Some were relieved that they still had a ranking and score this round, and shouldn't be eliminated. Others were disappointed that they only answered three components correctly, filled with despair. Some were guessing how many Fang Zhongzhou got right, but at this time, no one would pay attention to Chu Nan anymore. In everyone's eyes, Chu Nan was definitely one of the abandoned candidates who didn't get mentioned just now.

  Zhao Dejiang continued: "At the same time, there are several surprises in this round. Next, I will announce the rankings from lowest to highest. Eighth place Wang Zhi, he correctly answered five types of medicinal ingredients. Seventh place Ouyang Ming, he correctly answered eight types of medicinal ingredients. Sixth place Wu Kejia, he correctly answered nine types of medicinal ingredients. The scores of these three students are all very good, please give them a warm round of applause."

  Everyone applauded while secretly guessing who the top five should be. Logically, Zhang Jingran, Chen Xiaoxiao, Francis and Fang Junzhou were the most outstanding among all contestants and had the highest chance of becoming one of the top five. As for Fang Junzhou, he was almost certain to be the first place winner. So, who would be the other one in the top five?

  Many people started discussing in private, unable to guess the reason, and no one suspected Chu Nan. Although Chu Nan had made a big splash in this competition, it was all outside of the actual competition, such as being the first person in the history of the medical competition to whistle at a girl, or making an earth-shattering bet. Although Chu Nan's written test score in the first round was quite good, tied with Fang Junzhou for fourth place, it could only be said that it was just okay, after all, there were still five or six contestants whose scores were higher than his, and it wasn't stunning.

  Everyone thought and thought, and came up with many college names, but just couldn't think of Chu Nan's name.

  Zhao Dejiang looked at everyone's reaction with satisfaction, thinking that you will be surprised in a while, just like we judges were surprised earlier. At least let you feel the same way. Alas, this medical competition is getting more and more exciting.

  Zhao Dejiang cleared his throat and said: "Now I will announce the names of the top five."

  Everyone held their breath, even the proud Francis and Chen Xiao had a tense look on their face. The only ones who were not nervous were the contestants whose rankings had already been announced, as well as Chu Nan and Fang Junzhou. Fang Junzhou looked confident of winning, while Chu Nan appeared relaxed, but to everyone else, it seemed like he was just because he knew he already had zero points.

  Zhao Dejiang looked at Francis and said loudly: "The fifth place contestant is Francis, he correctly answered a total of twelve kinds of medicinal ingredients!"

  Everyone was full of praise, Francis's score was already very good, but his expression didn't show any pride, instead he muttered a curse under his breath, looking quite disheartened.

  Zhao Dejiang continued: "The fourth place is Zhang Jingran, who correctly identified fifteen of the medicinal ingredients."

  Another gasp of amazement, although Zhang Jingran's ranking in this round was no longer comparable to the first round, but this performance was still astonishing. However, Zhang Jingran also furrowed his brow, but instead of muttering curses under his breath, he was murmuring to himself about what other medicinal ingredients should be and why he had never figured it out before.

  "Third is Chen Xiaoxiao," Zhao Dejiang continued.

  When the third name was announced, there were more surprised voices in the midst of the applause. It was clear that no one had expected Chen Xiao to fall to third place. After the fourth and fifth places were confirmed, everyone assumed that Fang Junzhou and Chen Xiao would be the top two. But now Chen Xiao had actually fallen to third place, so Fang Junzhou was naturally the first place winner. Then who would be second?

  "Unexpectedly, another dark horse has emerged in this round of competition."

  "Yes, but it's really unimaginable! Who would have thought that the second place would be...? The ranking is actually ahead of Chen Xiaoxiao, and Chen Xiaoxiao is a medical genius who returned from studying in Germany!"

  "Nonsense, you can't think of it, I couldn't think of it either! Anyway, even if this person is eliminated in the end, but in this round of live broadcast, he can get a second place, and still be the second place in this segment, his future prospects are also boundless, I estimate many hospitals will want to go."

  "Wow, it's really enviable! No matter which hospital recruits you, high salary and benefits are a must, you'll be treated like an ancestor!"

  "Haha, being able to experience the thrill of being in the top 5 in a live broadcast, the future prospects are endless."

  Zhao Dejiang cleared his throat, waiting until everyone's discussion had died down before dropping the bombshell: "The second place... he successfully analyzed twenty-five kinds of medicinal components."

  Chen Xiao suddenly stood up excitedly, her breathing almost stopped, and she stared blankly, while the entire scene was about to boil over. The previous Jiangwan City medical competitions had never seen such a good score before, this is probably the best score in history!

  When everyone was in a heated discussion, Fang Junzhou's face changed slightly, but quickly returned to normal. He answered a total of 35 pharmaceutical components and estimated that he might have gotten 25 or 26 correct. Could it be that he got more than he thought? Fang Junzhou's heart was no longer calm, thinking about the various possibilities, but still determined that first place would be his.

  Finally, Zhao Dejiang loudly announced: "This achievement is the second best in Jiangwan City's history. The winner of the first best achievement is our first-place winner today. I believe that the top two winners will be the biggest dark horses in this medical competition and will definitely bring many honors to our city. Let us congratulate the runner-up... Fang Junzhou!"

  Fang Junzhou was stunned, everyone else had a look of shock on their faces, Zheng Jia's father and daughter were even more surprised and stood up, the whole scene was in an uproar, Fang Junzhou was second? Then who would be first!!!!!!!

  Luo Xi lowered his head and chuckled, and Wang Yue beside him asked: "Luo Xi, what are you laughing at?"

  Ling Luo Creek smiled and said: "I just guessed that this big bad egg would be first."

  Wang Yue's face was filled with disbelief as he said, "You're saying that Chu will be the first place? That can't be right, I thought he had already given up on the exam!" As he spoke, Wang Yue couldn't help but furrow his brow.

  Zero Creek's eyes sparkled with bright lights, and she hummed a sound: "Just now I also suspected that this big bad egg had abandoned the exam, but in this venue, whoever can win against Fang Junzhou, except for this big bad egg, there won't be anyone else, don't believe it? Just wait and see!"

  Zhao Dejiang was very satisfied with the effect on the scene, thinking that when he had just learned about his ranking and score, he was also frightened, now let you all have a good heart-pounding jump!

  Zhao Dejiang took advantage of this heat and continued to announce: "The first-place contestant, Chu Nan!"

  "Chu Nan correctly identified thirty-four types of medicinal ingredients!!"

  Thirty-four, the entire scene thoroughly boiled, other contestants were stunned, everyone had a look of astonishment on their face, and some spectators even covered their faces, passionately calling out to God, they witnessed the birth of the greatest genius in history, at least a genius in identifying medicines!!

  Chu Nan still had that relaxed look on his face, after scanning the entire scene, he shook his head and let out a regretful sigh, muttering to himself: "How did I still get one wrong, what a pity!"
