She became a heartthrob among internet celebrities.

—I can't believe I watched the live stream for three days straight!

—Who isn't? This show is actually quite interesting.

—Although I was amazed by how their brains worked the whole time.

—Recommended by my older brother

—Baidu University is awesome!

—Let's see if this show is really that good.

—I was introduced to this platform by the behind-the-scenes footage on Douyin :)

—Come on, let's start the game and bet on which school will win!

—It must be USTC!!!

As soon as the live stream started, the viewers who were waiting instantly became active, sending messages in rapid succession.

Jiang Lai sat with her senior classmates, waiting for the host to announce the start of the competition.

Shi Lan waved to the camera: "Welcome everyone to tune in! Today is the last day of the competition, the most exciting moment! Only a few teams are left on stage! They are Imperial University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and..."

"Each of them is a well-known prestigious university, and they are all very capable. Over the past two days, they have overcome numerous challenges and demonstrated their abilities to our judges, guests, and the audience in front of the camera."

The camera briefly panned across the teams in the audience.

—I'm so anxious!!! Hurry up, hurry up!

—Go for it, juniors!

"Now, please welcome all the teams to come up on stage!"

Everyone went up to the stage.

Because it was the final round, each team put some thought into their outfits.

The students from USTC wore white short-sleeved shirts with the USTC logo, while the students from BGI wore T-shirts with the school's unique logo.

The group from Imperial University was probably the most eye-catching because they were wearing their standard uniforms. Jiang Lai and Zhou Yunyun wore white shirts with bow ties and green pleated skirts, the representative color of Imperial University, with sundial embroidery on the chest. Lin Yi and Chen Shuo also wore white shirts with ties and dress pants.

These are the outfits for this school anniversary celebration; almost every student has one.

Many viewers in the live stream were pleasantly surprised to see everyone dressed up so nicely.

—Wow! Were there no makeup artists for the past few days? Everyone looks so radiant today!

So everyone just doesn't dress up? What happened to the saying that top students aren't good-looking? Why am I the only one who's both ugly and stupid?

—Ahhh, Susu! That blue t-shirt gives off such a masculine vibe!!

—Sometimes I really don't like Su Su's black hair, but black hair looks good too.

—A shout-out to the freshmen at Imperial College London!

—Speaking of which, did Imperial University bribe their way to have such nice uniforms?

—Here it is! Let me tell you something: this uniform from Imperial Capital University is a special commemorative edition for this year's anniversary celebration, and the school is giving it away for free!

—Are you giving away clothes for your school anniversary? Is it too late for me to sign up now?

—It's not something I give every year. I've given mugs, bookmarks, brooches, and things like that before, but this year is a big anniversary!

—This one was also designed by alumni of Beijing University, and was chosen by a vote.

—I'm so envious!

—Our Jiang Lai is so pretty 5555

—She has a very low-key feel, but she stands out in a crowd, as if she can glow. Is it true that beautiful women are different?

—They all came from the brother's side, and they're all fans too, so why is Jiang Lai so impressive? Are all the talented people fans of Lin Yinchuan?

—Tao Qi, my little darling, ah, ah!

—I became a fan of Jiang Lai after watching the previous live streams; she's so amazing!

—Check out Douyin Video (a!), there's a special introduction by our Jiang Jiang! You won't regret investing! Where else can you find a streamer with such a sweet voice who can lull you to sleep, provide voiceovers, tutor you, and be a role model?!

Shi Lan asked, "Before the competition begins, let's all say some tough words to each other?"

The contestants looked at each other and smiled sheepishly.

Tao Chi took the lead, saying, "I'll go first! It'll be really embarrassing if you lose to me! HKUST has me, we won't lose."

"Our Jiangda will wipe out every single team!"

Qu Su picked up the microphone: "I hope everyone will admit defeat soon and finish work early."

When it was the turn of Imperial University, Lin Yi, being the oldest, declared on behalf of the team: "Words are useless; let's see who prevails on the field."

Shi Lan clapped her hands: "Alright! Now let's talk about the rules of the game."

The competition is divided into four stages. You can only proceed to the next stage after completing the previous one. The final ranking is based on the score.

The first challenge tests observation skills. The program team selected many world-famous paintings, turned them into black and white, and expressed all the paintings as geometric shapes. The contestants will receive a picture made up of various irregular geometric shapes, and they need to find the geometric shapes in their own picture among the various paintings.

—? ? ? Did you understand?

—I understand.

—Then explain it to me.

--I don't!

—I didn't understand either, my head is spinning.

—I think I understand it roughly. The contestants will be given various shapes, each extracted from a painting, and they need to identify which painting each shape belongs to.

—It sounds like it's very simple.

Are you sure? Black and white geometric shapes all look pretty much the same; it would be a miracle if someone could recognize them.

—Let's hear the rules for the next project!

"After the first contestant answers accurately, the second contestant can go on stage. The production team takes out the original painting from the first competition and makes many sets of irregular puzzle pieces, which are suspended in mid-air. Each set falls, and the contestants need to judge each set of irregular pieces in their minds and fill in the corresponding puzzle piece information on the plate, including the piece number and the random placement method. The first person to complete it wins."

—A 3D jigsaw puzzle? ??

—I'm numb.

So hard, so hard

—This question shouldn't be done by Tao Qi; it's tiring for a child to look up like that.

—The person upstairs is so mean!!

—This level is about spatial abilities, right?

"The third round is purely a calculation problem. Contestants will be given a set of data and can choose whether it is a three-digit, four-digit, or five-digit number, and choose which operation method to use: addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division. A three-digit number is worth 1 point, a four-digit number is worth 2 points, a five-digit number is worth 3 points, addition and subtraction are worth 1 point, and multiplication and division are worth 2 points. It should be noted that the time allotted for this round is determined by each contestant's choice. If a contestant chooses a five-digit number plus multiplication and division, they will have three minutes. If a contestant completes the problem correctly in less than three minutes, the remaining time will be given to the next contestant."

"You can score points by choosing the combination you want and calculating it correctly in this level."

—After looking at them all, is this the easiest level?

—Actually, it's not exactly easy. The show simply gave the contestants a choice: if they were falling behind, they could choose the easier option to speed things up.

—It's still a matter of strategy.

—What's the point of leaving time here?

"The final challenge is memory. The production team will provide a set of data for the contestants to memorize. Then, based on the calculations made by their teammates in the third challenge, the contestants need to find the corresponding numbers in this set of data. The original time is five minutes, plus the time left by the previous contestant, which is the contestant's preparation time for this challenge. The more numbers you memorize, the higher your accuracy and the higher your score."

—For example, if you are given a number, and your teammate calculates it to be 45, then it's the fourth or fifth number in this set of data.

—It seems difficult, yet it seems easy. Ugh, my head is so itchy, I feel like my brain is growing. I wonder if I can reach God, God, or Hua Da.

—Are the third and fourth levels difficult? The rules sound very simple.

The simplest truths are often the most difficult to grasp.

—The players don't seem to be in a good mood.

Zhou Yunyun looked at Jiang Lai: "Junior, you're definitely the one who will be the last one."

Lin Yi and Chen Shuo nodded emphatically: "That's right."

Jiang Lai: "No problem! How will the senior students be assigned?"

Lin Yi looked at the big screen: "I'll do the first question? Chen Shuo's brain works faster than mine, should I let him do the third question?"

Zhou Yunyun: "Leave the spatial reasoning questions to me!"

Chen Shuo: "It's a good thing that all four of us are still here, otherwise each of us would have to compete in four matches, and we would all be exhausted." After he finished speaking, he looked at the boys from Qian University not far away with a sympathetic gaze.

"Ahem, please tone down that gloating look on your face, senior!!!"

After the guests offered some words of encouragement, the competition began.

Lin Yi was the first to take the stage, followed by Zhang Yan from Huada University, and several other students from other schools.

Lin Yi was very fast, almost the first to finish, and then he quickly passed it on to Zhou Yunyun. After receiving the painting, Zhou Yunyun began to observe it and then compared it with the puzzle pieces.

—It's so hard!

—Wouldn't it be a waste of time to just glance at each other?

—Because it's difficult.

—The puzzle being suspended in mid-air significantly increases the difficulty, especially since some pieces may have been rotated, making them even harder to find.

It's faster to have the comparison tool in hand than to run back and check it.

—Actually, it's pretty impressive, isn't it?

Unfortunately, Zhou Yunyun was a bit slower than the USTC contestants, but she still managed to finish the race.

After Zhou Yunyun pressed the button, Chen Shuo immediately picked up the pen and began to work on his screen.

—So fast, the pen almost flew out of my hand.

—You're so nervous, hahaha

—I wonder what he'll choose.

—It's clear that BGI is currently the fastest, while USTC and Imperial College London are neck and neck.

—I'm so nervous, I'm sweating buckets.

Jiang Lai sat in her seat, her eyes fixed on Chen Shuo, secretly cheering him on.

The viewers in the live stream were still guessing whether Chen Shuo would choose an easier question to widen the gap, but unexpectedly he directly chose four-digit multiplication and division.

—But even so, it still hasn't widened the gap with BGI, right?

—Huabei University chose five-digit multiplication and division, 6.

—Both sides are from the mathematics department, so it's really hard to say who will win. But in terms of choice, Huazhong University won. Qu Su was bolder, choosing five-digit multiplication and division with a slight advantage—that's incredibly courageous.

—Have you ever considered that choosing multiplication and division of five-digit numbers is the correct approach? Because the people following behind have to find the correct data segment from a series of data, and the longer the data segment, the more obvious it becomes!

That makes sense.

—I don't understand, I'll just watch and that's it.

Chen Shuo and Qu Su both started working on the questions. The remaining contestants were watching the contestants on the field. The fastest were Huada, Dida, and USTC, who had already reached the third round. The other teams were still struggling in the second round.

Of the three, Qu Su seemed unhurried, while Tao Qi and Chen Shuo were constantly working to finish the game as quickly as possible, leaving more time for their teammates.

Surprisingly, Qu Su was the fastest to complete the calculations among all the participants. After verifying the correctness of the answer, the production team had Qu Su's teammates begin preparing for the competition.

Tao Qi was a little faster than Chen Shuo. After Chen Shuo pressed the button, Jiang Lai quickly opened the screen, and a screen full of numbers appeared in front of her. At this time, she did not know what the number Chen Shuo had calculated was, so she could only memorize the numbers first.

—I panic when I see numbers, how am I supposed to remember them all?

—Just grit your teeth and memorize it.

I don't even know what the answer to the previous one was, or where it is. Just memorizing it like this is really confusing.

—The students from the neighboring Huazhong University of Science and Technology had sweat dripping from their foreheads.

So where did this number come from?

Shi Lan: "The numbers that the contestants need to memorize are all randomly generated by the computer system. Of course, the correct answer from the previous round is also hidden in them."

A few minutes later, contestants began to receive notifications on their screens that their time had run out.

"Now, the contestant with the shortest time will take the challenge first. Please look at the big screen!"

A set of numbers appeared on the screen, which was the answer given by his previous teammate. He needed to find the location of the correct answer by memorizing the numbers.

At first, the contestant recited the numbers fluently, but he started to stumble after reaching the twentieth or so digits. He paused for a long time before finally stopping and revealing the location of his teammate's answer.

The staff immediately pointed out that there were no correct answers among the data he recited, meaning that he had not memorized enough.

Jiang Lai was the fourth to recite. The viewers in the live stream only heard her recite a long string of numbers fluently without any hesitation, just like she was reading a book.

—? Seriously, sis?

—Has this girl always been this awesome?

—Our Jiang Jiang has always had an amazing memory.

—Wow, that's amazing! It's such a shame they don't go into the Guinness World Records!

—I just want to know if having this skill allows me to gamble on cards?

—You need to know how to calculate the cards; it's not enough to just memorize them. Of course, memorizing them is a prerequisite.

—Reject gambling!!

"...The answer starts with the seventh number in the eighth row."

The screen displayed the data Jiang Lai had previously memorized, and then starting from the seventh number in the eighth row, it meant she had really finished! And she had memorized it all! She got full marks on this question!

—What is this? A human-shaped camera?

—Or is it more like a humanoid computer?

—Wow, is this some kind of crazy thing??

—I really want to know how top students' brains are structured. Do they use their brains a lot and drink a lot of Six Walnuts (a popular Chinese beverage)?

Many new viewers joined the live stream that day, and everyone was impressed by the contestants' abilities. Jiang Lai's appearance and performance naturally sparked discussion among the viewers.
