Chapter 689
Dean Norman couldn’t be more aware of how rigorous the grading system is.
Tutors have taken similar tests in order to teach.
Mo Feng, the number one tutor in the Engineering School, only scored 98 points.
Even Dean Norman himself, had once specially created equipment to put into the scoring system.
The final score was 99.9.
Dean Norman had specifically pulled out the rules for deducting points.
The 0.1 point was deducted for the fact that the equipment would have worked better if one of the elements he installed had been moved 0.1mm further to the left.
But man is not a machine, after all, and it is impossible to be error-free.
To score one hundred points proves that this trainee’s calculation ability is too strong.
It could even be compared to a large computer!
Talent, this is an unparalleled talent.
Born to study mechanical and aerospace engineering.
Dean Norman tried to calm himself down as he took a deep breath and immediately contacted Sinai.
He didn’t hold out much hope, though.
After Sinai’s disappearance, the two had occasionally contacted each other online.
Most of the time it was Sinai who initiated contact with him, and he hadn’t once managed to get in touch.
But this time, Sinai had surprisingly replied quickly.
[Sinai]: Teacher, delete her transcripts, this information is only known to you, and I only trust you.
Dean Norman looked aghast.
The Biogenetic Academy was formerly the Alchemy Academy, directly under the Sage Magician and the Sage Priestess.
The Faculty of Engineering was a new faculty created after industrial technology had advanced, and was not directly under the Sages.
Dean Norman was not sure what had happened to Sinai.
But he was sure that it had to do with the House of Sages.
Otherwise, who would dare to make a move against a direct member of the Lehngar family?
Moreover, Sinai was still an SS Fellow and had a very high status.
Without the slightest hesitation, Dean Norman completely deleted this transcript of Ying Ziyi from the system.
He then used his privilege to create a fake report card, changing Ying Zidian’s grade to 88, still the first in the test.
A score above 90 is very different from a score below 90.
Because the only two trainees in the engineering school who had scored above 90, one was wiped of his memories about the City of Worlds to travel to the seven continents and four oceans.
One had been dosed with alchemical drugs, resulting in a lot of physical and neurological fractures.
Neither was a good outcome.
Norman took a deep breath and restrained his emotions.
[Norman]: No wonder you didn’t just recommend her as an S-rank researcher, indeed, I was ill-considered.
[Sinai]: I didn’t think it through either. It was Ying who told me that she was interested in aviation technology and wanted her teacher to teach her more.
[Norman]: Naturally.
Such a genius, he must be under his tutelage.
Norman thought for a moment and then asked.
[Norman]: She wouldn’t be your sister, would she? I feel that your looks and IQ are very close, you must be from the same family.
Norman waited for half a day for a reply, and strangely sent a “?” .
Now there was a reply, but it was a box that popped up automatically.
[The master is playing, please tell the little ai if you have any news, when the master returns, the little ai will relay it =3=]
Dean Norman: “……”
Teach your apprentice, be angry at your master.
**
The exact results of the exams have never been released to the public, only a report will be posted and ranked by ranking.
The consequence of advanced technology is that the results come out instantly just after the examination, giving absolutely no time to react.
The total number of people who took the test this time was as high as 50,000, and in the end only 2,000 or so made it into the major houses.
As the two main academies, the Biogenetic Academy admitted thirty-seven trainees and the Engineering Academy admitted thirty.
The trainees all gathered around the announcement screen to watch.
Heavenly Smoke had also arrived.
It had been a bad two days after she had been kicked out of the Lehngar family by Bea that day.
Fortunately, Bea didn’t spend much time at the Institute and the other cadets didn’t know what had happened and would still come to brag about her.
This gave Sky Smoke some comfort, but in her heart she still resented it.
She hadn’t really known that Bi’er had an aunt that young, not much older than them.
There was a cacophony of noise in front of the announcement screen, and there were shouts of surprise one after another.
“Holy sh*t, the number one in the Engineering Academy is a junior cadet?”
“Ying Zigui, is that the girl who beat up those Genetic Academy trainees that day? She’s got a long history of disliking the Genetic Academy, good job!”
As long as there are no tutors or family members, the tutors don’t interfere in matters between students.
What goes around comes around, and the weak eat the strong.
This was the law of the City of Worlds.
“I guess people are hiding their strength. Who says that senior trainees are necessarily more powerful than junior trainees? It’s just that the time to enter the Institute is different.”
As she listened, Sky Smoke’s smile froze.
Somewhat incredulous, she immediately ran over and violently pushed the people in front of her away, “What are you saying?”
Ying Ziyi wasn’t cancelled for cheating and sent to the Genetic Institute as an experiment, and she even took first place in the Engineering Institute’s exam?!
How was that possible?
The other trainees gave her a strange look and all stepped aside.
Sky Smoke looked up.
At the top of the announcement screen were two names side by side.
Ying Zidian, Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Academy.
Lan En, Biogenetic Academy.
Sky Smoke couldn’t believe her eyes for the life of her.
She had clearly confirmed that she had imported the drawings into Ying Zigui’s lab bench, so how come nothing had happened?
Gritting her teeth, Tian Yan turned around and went to the examination hall.
Before she reached the door, a voice rang out.
It was clear and faint.
“The drawings were imported into my lab bench by you.”
The girl looked up, a pair of phoenix eyes as cool as snow, straight to the heart.
As if they had seen through everything.
“What did you say?” Tian Yan’s expression changed slightly, forcing herself to play it cool, “I don’t know anything about the drawings at all.”
Ying Ziji took out his phone.
The 3d projection printed out a drawing.
It was the same one that Sky Smoke had put in.
“Good, you really do have the drawing after all!” Sky Smoke jumped up at once, “I’m going to report you, and I don’t know exactly what method you used to conceal it from the invigilator.”
“Don’t you dare bring out the evidence, you’re finished!”
She simply didn’t believe that Ying Ziji, a junior cadet, could take the first place.
Treating a senior cadet like a poseur?
Sky Smoke sneered, turned around and left.
Ying Zidian raised his eyebrows and didn’t stop him.
“Ying, congratulations!” Bing Lan ran over, “To celebrate your entry into the Engineering Academy, shall we go for dinner?”
Ying Zidian nodded, “Let’s go to the snack street opposite.”
“Okay.” Bing Lan glanced at her phone, “Ying, have you opened a live streaming account? I’m going to follow you, am I the first fan!”
Ying Ziji: “…… No.”
Her first fan was Fu Yunshen, the second was Xina, and the third was Yu Xuesheng.
She opened her live account to contact Norton.
Norton knew something about her style of doing things.
Ying had specifically imported Norton’s photo into the search box, but did not look up the object of the attachment.
The w network had so many users that sometimes even the sages would use
“Oh.” Ice Blue didn’t care, “It doesn’t matter, I’m the fourth one.”
She started browsing through Ying Ziji’s homepage and saw a new message that had come out.
[Why did you delete my message, you must be Miss Bi’er, why didn’t you reply to me, you’re weak-minded! If you’re not, how come you’re so similar to Miss Bi’er’s style?
Ice Blue frowned and replied back.
[Get a cure for your brain disease! She’s not!]
“Nuts, right?” Ice Blue grumbled.
“It’s just an online thing, you lose if you care.” Ying Zigui yawned, “Let’s go.”
Bing Lan nodded and was about to follow and leave.
Just at that moment, an alarm sounded.
[Warning! Warning! Please pay attention to all students!
[There is a problem with the lab, no one is allowed to leave the institute, the Hacker Alliance has been asked to test it personally.]
Ying Lan was stunned: “The Hacker Alliance is here in person?”
Ying Zidian stopped in his tracks and narrowed his eyes slightly.
In front of her, was Sky Smoke who had gone and returned.
She wrapped her arms around her and was contemptuous: “Just you wait.”
She had just gone to the invigilator’s office and was told that the Institute had contacted the hackers from the Hacker Alliance and would personally inspect the lab bench.
There was no way that Ying’s computer skills were higher than those of the hackers in the Hacker League.
Not only did the hacker alliance come, Dean Norman and a group of tutors were also alerted and came to the examination hall in unison.
The invigilator respectfully, “Your Excellency Deacon, this is the lab bench, we suspect that someone has maliciously attacked the w-net and helped the trainees cheat.”
As he said this, he coldly glanced at Ying Zigui, the meaning was obvious.
“Our alliance leader has asked the young master to try this time.” The deacon smiled, “Please rest a*sured, Dean and all of you, the young master has been a genius since he was young, and even before he had received any training, he was already able to block the alliance leader’s virus attack.”
The crowd froze.
At that moment, a young man came through the door.
Ying Ziji turned his head and saw the young man’s face clearly: “……”
Bull.
Chapter 690
The young man had short black hair and a handsome face, but looked a little dishevelled.
He didn’t seem very reluctant, but followed anyway.
“This is our young master.” The deacon of the Hacker Alliance was busy taking a step back and introduced, “The young master has a bad temper, so I won’t tell you his name for now, the Alliance will invite you all to a banquet another day, and then I will formally introduce him to you.”
At these words, not to mention the instructors, even Dean Norman was a little surprised.
The Hacker Alliance was an organisation that had emerged in the 17th century in the City of Worlds, furthering the rapid development of the Internet and a major power in the City of Worlds.
Although the Institute also had a computer institute, it was a step down from the Hacker Alliance.
In all the time since this alliance’s president came to power fifty years ago, it has never heard of any other young masters.
There are many elite hackers within the League who are capable of succeeding the League, but the President has never relented.
It is obvious that although these hackers are all very capable, they are not yet strong enough for the alliance chief to pa*s on the hacker alliance.
How come it’s only been a few days and there’s already a young master?
However, to be able to block a virus attack from the alliance leader of the hacker alliance at such a young age, the ability was indeed very strong.
The gazes of many trainees fell on the young man, including Sky Smoke.
She had completely left the matter of Ying Zigui behind, with a few cheers of elation.
Tian Yan had followed Bi’er and naturally had seen the elite hackers of the Hacker Union.
But these elite hackers either had thinning hair and were half bald, or were ordinary and nothing special.
This was the first time she had seen such a good-looking one.
The young master of the Hacker Alliance was no worse than the heir to a large family.
Even the Leingold family and the Jade family had to hire the Hacker Alliance when they encountered computer-related matters.
The deacon again respectfully brought the young man to the laboratory table and saluted, “Young master, please test.”
Qin Lingyan responded with a breathless, wilted voice: “Okay.”
He was originally squatting at the convenience store outside the Hacker Union eating instant noodles, but before the noodles could reach his mouth, someone immediately came to his door.
If he didn’t get there soon, once the w-net collapsed, the entire World City
For the first time, Qin Lingyan somewhat hated high technology.
It completely gave people nowhere to hide, making it impossible for him to even eat his noodles in peace.
Qin Lingyan rolled up his sleeves and “snapped”, sitting down in front of the experimental table.
After a casual sweep, he began to input the programme.
Some of the trainees even took out their mobile phones and began to record the video, broadcasting it live on the w network.
“Ying.” Bing Lan, however, was a little worried, “There won’t be anything wrong, right?”
She had also just listened to the trainees who were talking about what had happened in the examination hall this morning.
The detection system had found that Ying Zidian’s lab bench contained drawings that had already been prepared.
A computer playing mechanical engineering wouldn’t be too bad, but it certainly couldn’t compete with the hackers from the Hacker Union.
“It’s fine.” Ying Zidian raised an eyebrow, “The most he can check is that there are traces of deleted files.”
The lab bench was linked to the w-net.
For Ying Ziyi, with the founding account in place, she could control the entire w-net.
After she found out, she used her authority within three seconds to delete the drawings that Sky Smoke had led into her lab bench.
Deleting from the backend was not the same as forcibly shredding using hacking techniques.
“But this young master is really good looking.” Bing Lan looked Qin Lingyu up and down, “He should only be 18 at most, right?”
Ying Ziji looked at Qin LingYu’s baby face and broke Bing Lan’s fantasy, “He’s already 26.”
“Oops, Ying, we’re standing so close, we should broadcast live.” Bing Lan suddenly said, “This is the young master of the Hacker Union, your fan base can definitely skyrocket.”
“It’s okay.” Ying Zigui yawned, “There will be many opportunities to meet in the future.”
Bing Lan froze, before he could understand, Qin Lingyan had already stood up.
He turned his head once and was about to speak when his eyes glanced over and subconsciously locked onto whichever one stood out the most in the crowd.
Qin Lingyan: “!!!”
F*ck.
Who did he see?
His eyes must be blind.
Qin Lingyan immediately swallowed back all the words he was about to say.
He stared at the girl blankly, unable to come back to his senses for half a day.
How could Big Brother’s sister be here?
Looking at Qin Lingyan’s soulful look, the deacon was a little puzzled, “Young master?”
Their young master was good at everything, except that he liked eating bubble noodles too much.
But bubble noodles were not good for the body, it couldn’t be affecting the nerves, could it?
“There aren’t any drawings in the lab bench.” Qin Lingyan reluctantly returned to his senses, his face expressionless, “Nor did anyone help the trainees cheat, and the w-net has always been maintained by the Hacker Alliance, much less an accident.”
The invigilator blurted out, “But the detection system is clearly ……”
“It’s time for you to replace the detection system.” Qin Lingyan interrupted him, “Qianjun.”
The deacon named “Thousand Jun” complied and immediately pulled out a price list, showing it in a 3D projection.
“As far as we know, your institution’s testing system has not been changed for three years.” Qianjun smiled, “Because the young master returned to the alliance only a short while ago, the alliance chief was pleased and was preparing a feast for the four quarters.”
“That is why all services and products under the Hacker Alliance have also been discounted, your institution can choose any of the options and the Hacker Alliance will be responsible for the repairs to the end.”
Dean Norman: “……”
What a sales pitch.
He had dealt with the Hacker Alliance allies quite a bit, and had been pitched a smart armour that had an attack and protection system all in one.
It really wasn’t a family.
Shrewd as hell.
The invigilator didn’t say anything else.
If he said anything else, it would be questioning the Hacker Alliance.
Sky Smoke was a bit dazed.
How could there be no drawings?
Had she inattentively guided the wrong one?
Tian Yan pinched her palm and gritted her teeth.
She had been escaped by Ying Zigui again, and had managed to get her into the Engineering Academy.
It wouldn’t be so easy to deal with her again in the future.
Over here, Qianjun was discussing the plan with Dean Norman and a group of tutors.
Qin Lingyan was a little anxious and unsettled.
He looked at the girl frequently, and finally couldn’t resist going up to her.
Ying Ziyang gave him a look.
Qin Lingyan stopped in his tracks, held his words back again and quietly made an ok gesture.
Indicating that they would go to dinner together later.

The other side.
Sage Academy.
The results of this time’s examination for the two main houses of the research institute were also submitted to the Sage Academy.
As for the other Houses, the Sage Academy didn’t have time to care nor did it care.
On the top floor of the Sage Academy, there are a total of twenty-two rooms.
They are numbered from 0 to 21, corresponding to the twenty-two Great Arcana of the Tarot.
They are also the places where the Sages summon others.
For each Sage, one room corresponds.
This is the second door, numbered “1”.
On the door is a design of a man in a white robe and crimson cloak, holding a sceptre in his hand.
The second of the twenty-two sages, where the magician is located.
The steward, having received permission, walked in.
Inside, however, there was not a single figure.
Only a voice rang out, “Speak.”
“Your Excellency.” The steward respectfully bowed ten thousand salutes, “The Gene Academy has a few good candidates this time, this boy called Lan En got a good score of 92 points, his current overall ranking is fifth, he can focus on training.”
The Engineering Academy and the Gene Academy were tied as two major academies though.
However, the residents of World City all knew that behind the Gene Academy stood two Sages.
As long as they had high test scores or performed well, they would be summoned by the Magi.
This was something that could not be wished for.
This is why the number of people taking part in the Gene Academy examination is far greater than that of the Engineering Academy.
The magician’s voice rang out once more with a bit of gloom, “What about the Engineering Academy?”
“There were 30 people selected for the Engineering Academy, with the highest score of 88 and the lowest score being 60.” The steward continued, “This is the list, please look through it, my lord.”
“It is not necessary.” After hearing the scores, the magician was indifferent, “I am working on a new drug, go down, don’t disturb.”
Not being on 90 points was not enough to make him pay attention.
The steward bowed again and hurriedly went out.
The door closed automatically.
The steward broke into a sweat and was about to go downstairs.
As soon as he turned around, he bumped into a man.
When he saw the man’s face clearly, the steward was startled and knelt down: “Lord Commander.”
As a service worker at the side of a sage, one must remember the face of every big man.
Fu Yunshen glanced at the huge door the steward had come out of with a smirk, lazily, “No need to be so polite.”
The steward, however, finished his salute before standing up, cold sweat running down his face, “Is Lord Commander looking for Lord Magician for something? I can go and report it now.”
“It’s just a walk.” Fu Yun Shen was faint, “Let’s go.”
He had gone to see the Sage Pope today.
I said I met, but I didn’t actually see the Pope himself, I just heard the voice.
After the man left, the steward’s legs went weak and he fell to his knees again with a thud.
This time it was fear.
The steward wiped the sweat from his head, his heart palpitating.
How could this man put more pressure on him than the Magi?
He had seen the Sage Magician so many times, but he had never been so scared.
And the magician had always had a temper that was temperamental and would let the steward test the medicine.
How could a newly appointed Knight Commander of the Sword make him feel this way?
The steward glanced again in the direction the man had left.
The black back gave way to a palpitating feeling.
It was as if a demon was about to break through the dusty abyss and descend upon the earth.
Outside.
Fu Yunshen did not take the pa*sage either, and leapt straight down from the edge.
The majestic internal energy belonging to an ancient martial artist was enough to support him to land safely.
The clouds were vast, and the wind was blowing past his ears.
Fu Yunshen flicked the ash off his lapel and took out his car keys.
The phone rang at that moment.
[Cute Girlfriend]: Sir, I’ve seen Doll Face.
He is now the young master of the Hacker Alliance.
Fu Yunshen looked puzzled, his eyes deepening.
He confirmed that Qin Lingyan’s disappearance definitely had something to do with World City.
How did this guy become the young master of the Hacker Alliance in one fell swoop?
The Hacker Alliance, which Fu Yunshen also knew, was definitely one of the top forces in the World City.
The head of the alliance is already in his seventies and is looking for a successor.
[Wait for me.]
**
The Institute’s side.
The Institute of Engineering and the Hacker Alliance finalized their cooperation plan.
Dean Norman left in a hurry after leaving this matter to Mo Feng.
He still had to prepare for the apprenticeship, and had no time to waste here.
Bea turned her head: “Teacher, what happened to Dean?”
“No surprise it’s some inspiration.” Mo Feng said, “Come on, let’s go to the headquarters of the Hacker Union.”
Bi’er nodded her head.
There were whispers around them.
“I really envy Miss Bi’er, being able to go to the Hacker Union headquarters.”
“Actually, that young master is quite a good match for Miss Bi’er in terms of looks and status.”
“No, no, no, Miss Bi’er is definitely going to marry into the House of Magi in the future, maybe even marry one of them.”
Bi’er just ignored it.
She paused slightly in her steps as she pa*sed by Ying Zigui and Bing Lan.
She then gently swept a glance at the girl, without any extra emotion on her face, as if it was not enough to enter her eyes.
Bi’er didn’t know what Ying Zidian’s score was, but it would definitely not exceed hers.
She would notice Ying Zidian, admittedly because of his high face value.
But more than that, there was a sense of familiarity, a familiarity that she resisted.
Mo Feng turned his head: “Bi’er?”
Bi’er collected the doubts in her heart and faded: “Nothing much, teacher, let’s go.”
She was going to meet the alliance leader and young master of the Hacker Union, there was no need to pay so much attention to a civilian who had only just entered the Engineering Academy.
Bing Lan followed Ying Zidian and together they went outside to the dining room, she froze, “Eh, Ying, why did you choose a table for four?”
“There are two more people.” Ying Zidian checked the menu, “Let’s order first.”
She knew exactly what Fu Yunshen ate, but Qin Lingyan ate a simple meal.
He could be happy with a bag of noodles for a long time.
Bing Lan was puzzled, “Who else? ”
Ten minutes later, the door of the restaurant opened once again.
Qin Lingyan with a hat and mask, wrapped himself into a dumpling.
