Chapter 311 Crushing Defeat
The physics competition consisted of a writing test in the morning and a physics experiment in the afternoon. The writing test was fifty marks, and the experiment was also fifty marks. Thus, the total would be one hundred marks.
After entering the exam hall, Mavis took one look at the questions. A grin flitted across her lips. This time, I must make Sophie leave Bailey.
As she had gotten the questions in advance, she wasn’t in a hurry. Slowly, she wrote down the answers she has solved earlier one by one. She didn’t forget to glance at Sophie in her free time.
So what if Sophie is capable? It’s useless. After getting the questions, I had to read a lot to find all the formulas needed to solve them. The questions are way too hard.
Sophie knew Mavis was looking at her, but that didn’t stop her from answering the questions.
Indeed, the questions were extremely challenging. Sophie never had to use any scratch paper before this exam, but she was forced to use scratch paper this time.
The questions were answered one by one. She wasn’t worried as she loved challenges.
The duration of the test was two hours. Some students gave up halfway. They couldn’t even solve the first multiple-choice question. There was no need for them to waste time sitting there.
It was the same for Ysabelle, for she couldn’t even solve any of the multiple-choice questions.
Why am I even here? To take a blow? Wait, isn’t it humiliating if I end up getting zero marks?
Sophie worked hard to solve the questions until the test ended. Mavis, on the other hand, had already completed the test long ago.
After walking out of the exam hall, Mavis stayed and waited for Bailey.
When Bailey came out, she called his name. “Bailey, what do you think of the test? Did you manage to solve all the questions?” she asked in concern.
“That is none of your business.” Ignoring her, Bailey waited for Sophie outside the hall patiently.
When Sophie and Ysabelle came out, Bailey joined them, and went out together.
Bailey asked, “Sophie, how was the test?”
“It was all right,” Sophie answered.
“The questions were pretty hard. I don’t want you to suffer because of me—”
“Bailey, it had nothing to do with you. Don’t get nervous,” Sophie interrupted. Why does he think I’m doing this because of him? Tristan will fly into a rage if he were to hear Bailey’s words!
“Mm. Got it.” Bailey seemed disappointed as Sophie kept distancing herself from him.
One student called out, “Mavis, what is the answer to the last question? I couldn’t figure it out no matter how hard I tried.”
The last question was a complicated formula. Mavis spent a long time memorizing it.
“You won’t understand. Anyway, I’ll get first place this time. Don’t harbor any expectations,” Mavis announced haughtily.
After Mavis left, the student came to a stop.
“D*mn, is there a need to act that arrogantly? By the way, Sophie, didn’t you make a bet with Mavis? Did you solve the last question?” the student asked eagerly.
Sophie pulled out a piece of paper and wrote the solution down before handing it to him.
The student broke down when he realized that it was a complicated answer.
It would take him a long time to memorize the formula, let alone solve the question.
“Sophie, what happened to him?” Ysabelle got curious seeing how dejected the student got.
