The night before the college entrance exam results were released, I redeemed my Peking University ad

"Holy crap!!! It's working perfectly???"

"From 312 to 716??? Is this something a human could possibly do???"

"Both parents died...three years ago...living alone...that's such a tragic background..."

"I was cursing him yesterday, but seeing this today suddenly makes me want to cry... Why is that..."

"So it's true?? The worst high school in the province, the worst mock exam results, and they still managed to get sixth place in the province in the actual college entrance exam?? What kind of novel protagonist script is this?!"

……

Once the official announcement was released, public opinion shifted again.

Those accounts that were frantically spamming "fake," "cheating," and "strict investigation" yesterday have now either quietly deleted their comments, forced themselves to apologize, or begun to sympathize with Ji Bai.

After all, both his parents are dead, and his grandparents are gone too. What kind of background could such a person have?

"Where are the people who accused him of fabricating evidence? Come out and apologize!"

"Oh my god, three years ago our whole family had a tragedy, and I carried it all by myself, even secretly getting the top score in the college entrance exam... I'm so heartbroken!"

"This is a true example of a child from a poor family achieving greatness! Without resources or connections, he carved out a path for himself in the worst high school!"

"An orphaned holy son of a fallen sect, enduring three years of hardship to achieve godhood in a single day! Even authors wouldn't dare write something like this!"

"What happened to those who called him a prince? Does a prince live in a run-down old apartment and ride a beat-up bicycle?"

"I told you there couldn't be any fakeness! The fairness of the college entrance examination cannot be questioned!"

……

Countless netizens sympathized with Ji Bai's background and completely sided with him.

Even though the official evidence confirmed the authenticity of the results, a group of highly educated individuals still jumped out.

A blogger whose profile identifies them as a "Master of Mathematics from a 985 University" posted a long article:

"I have a master's degree in mathematics from Aurora University. Although I can't compare to Tsinghua or Peking University, I consider myself a top student. Let me give my objective opinion on this matter."

"Learning follows objective laws. Going from a score of 47 to a perfect score in math requires a complete reconstruction of the entire knowledge system. This is not something that can be done in three months or half a year, much less something that an orphan without guidance can accomplish on his own."

"I'm not saying he definitely cheated, I'm just saying that it doesn't conform to the laws of education or the logic of human learning."

Immediately afterwards, several accounts verified as university professors and PhDs echoed this sentiment:

"I am an associate professor in the Department of Physics at National Chiao Tung University. I have been teaching for fifteen years and have taught countless students. I will only say one thing: in physics, it is impossible to get a high score without long-term accumulation."

"The last major question in the college entrance examination physics test the comprehensive application of electromagnetic induction. It was the most difficult question on the entire paper, and no more than fifty people in the entire province could get full marks."

"Tell me how a student who has never passed physics could answer this question correctly on the college entrance exam? This can't be explained by hard work alone."

……

"I work in the admissions office of Zhejiang University. Having seen countless student performance data, I can confidently say that the positive correlation between college entrance examination scores and mock exam scores is above 0.85."

"Such large deviations are extremely rare, and a deviation of 312 to 716 is something I have never seen in my career, nor have I ever read about in any academic literature."

"If this case is true, it's enough to publish a paper in a top-tier education journal."

……

"I am a PhD student in the Computer Science Department of Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Let me say a few words from the perspective of data analysis."

"In my 30 years of teaching, I have never seen a student who scored 300 points in a mock exam and then 700 points in the college entrance exam. This goes against all common sense in teaching."

"No matter how talented you are, you still need to accumulate experience; you can't just suddenly become gifted."

……

One by one.

These highly educated intellectuals seemed to have made a pact to speak out at the same time.

They don't engage in verbal battles or escalate issues; they simply present data, logic, and experience, offering their opinions with a superior, professional attitude.

But to their surprise, these words not only failed to stir up controversy, but instead made them the target of public criticism.

Netizens bombarded their comment section with criticism:

"Here it comes, here it comes, the academic clique mentality! They just can't stand to see ordinary people rise up!"

"Hilarious! A bunch of vested interests banding together for warmth, and when they see a wild one showing its face, their first reaction is to kill it."

"Why is it considered against the grain that an ordinary person becomes the top scorer? Is it just good luck?"

"Is it only students from prestigious universities like yours who can get into Tsinghua and Peking University? Is it considered cheating for kids from ordinary families to do even slightly well on tests?"

"You think monopolizing education resources is enough? Now you want to monopolize intelligence too?"

You want to monopolize the discourse, huh? You're all going to be upset that a top scholar from a poor family is coming up with a problem?

"I hate these elite cliques! They all come out with their prestigious university credentials, pretending to be rational and objective, but in the end, aren't they just trying to maintain their sense of superiority that 'only we deserve to be top students'?"

"The moment someone shatters this sense of superiority, their first reaction is that it's fake!"

"The higher their education level, the more petty they are! They can't stand seeing ordinary people succeed, can they!"

……

These highly educated individuals were completely stunned by this counterattack.

"You can't discuss ice with a summer insect!"

"It's true that the lower the education level, the lower the cognitive level!"

Since everyone thinks he's truly talented, Ji Bai, do you dare come out and let us verify it?

"Don't worry, we won't make things difficult for you. We'll just explain the solution to the last three major questions in your college entrance exam in math, physics, and chemistry to us in person."

"I don't believe someone who only scored 47 in math a month ago can explain the last, most difficult math problem!"

"We won't let you talk for nothing. Regardless of whether you can explain it clearly or not, we'll each give you 10,000 yuan, for a total of 300,000 yuan."

"Aren't you an orphan struggling financially? You really need this 30 yuan, right?"

……

The Kochi Alliance's challenge has once again caused a stir across the internet!

To be honest, the Kochi Alliance's move was quite ruthless.

They don't give you any difficult problems beyond the syllabus; they just ask you to explain your problem-solving process based on your own college entrance exam papers and questions you've already done.

Logically speaking, this requirement is flawless.

Moreover, they also paid 300,000 yuan.

Regardless of whether it's true or not, 300,000 is indeed a considerable sum for an orphan who has lost both parents.

Once this stance was adopted, even some of Ji Bai's original supporters began to waver.

"Why don't you come out and say something? You'll still get 300,000 even if you don't say anything, so it's not a loss."

Immediately, many netizens called on Ji Bai to come out and fight.

In an instant, netizens' emotions were completely ignited.

"Ji Bai!!! Come out!!! Prepare for battle!!!"

"Three hundred thousand! You can earn three hundred thousand just by explaining a few problems! I wouldn't even dare to dream of doing that!"

"Ji Bai, if you're really something, come out and show us your skills, and shut these academic tyrants up!"

"I can't take it anymore! A holy son from a fallen sect in the lower realm is going up against an elder from a high-ranking sect in the upper realm! This is fucking awesome!"

"Ji Bai, fight them!!!"

……

At this moment, Ji Bai had just gotten up.
