Chapter 75: Lu Miao, Goddess of War!

Lu Miao pursed her lips slightly. Doesn’t seem to be a serious injury?
The wound was so deep that even the hemostatic medicine could not stop it. If she had not helped him stop the bleeding just now, he might have lost his life by the time he arrived at the hospital.
“Principal, I remember that there should be surveillance cameras in this project, right?”
Only then did the surrounding students see her. They took a step back and made way for her.
Principal Xu sighed. ” The surveillance cameras are broken.”
The surveillance cameras were fine during the morning competition between the first and third years. However, when the third year competition started in the afternoon, the surveillance cameras suddenly broke down.
Before the technicians could identify any issues, an urgent call rang from the center of the competition area.
It was originally set up as an abort device for all participating students. If anyone wanted to quit the competition midway, they could press the emergency call button, and a teacher would come to escort them out.
Little did they expect that it would be used for a life-saving situation.
“What a coincidence?” Lu Miao’s eyelids twitched slightly as she looked at the remaining participants.
“This student, your school is responsible for the entire surveillance footage,” the principal of Fengcheng No.l High School reminded.
Principal Xu’s face darkened. This was what made him the angriest and most aggrieved.
The venue was theirs, and the surveillance cameras were their responsibility. He had no reason to suspect that someone else had tampered with it.
He couldn’t call the police.
With such an incident occurring during their first joint competition, the news had spread far and wide, making people hesitant to participate in the future. The reputation of all three schools had been significantly affected.
If there was evidence, it would be easier to handle. But without it, they would have to bear this hidden loss themselves.
The principal of the Jiangcheng Experiment School tried to smooth things over. “We are also deeply regretful that such an outstanding student got injured during the competition. We will provide appropriate compensation.”
“Since we can’t find any evidence now, why don’t we wait for that student to wake up and ask him what’s going on?”
The principal of Fengcheng No.l High School nodded. “I have no objections, but what about the competition?”
“You all know that the students in their final year are approaching the college entrance examination, and every day is crucial for them. We can’t afford to waste any more time here,” the principal of Jiangcheng Experimental School agreed.
The principal of the Jiangcheng Experimental School nodded in agreement. ” That’s right. The students of Zhenhai High School can still go back to their classrooms for lessons, but what about the students of our school?
They couldn’t just wait here and do nothing.
How about this: since the injured student cannot continue the competition, and considering that Zhenhai High School has only one student from the final round, we can select another participant from the previously eliminated contestants to continue competing with the remaining participants. Principal Xu, what do you think?” suggested the principal of Jiangcheng Experimental School.
Principal Xu remained silent with a composed expression. The fact that their student had stood out among so many contestants meant they were the most exceptional and had the highest chance of winning the championship. Allowing eliminated contestants to participate seemed fair and considerate on the surface, but it was, in fact, pitting their most outstanding participant against Zhenhai High School’s relatively weaker eliminated contestant.
This way, they would be able to ensure that they could win the second round and enter the next round.
This was clearly the greatest injustice to the students of Zhenhai High School!
The other students who were watching on the field naturally thought of it as well, and they were all indignant.
“This isn’t fair.”
“Isn’t it just competing with a disadvantage?”
“That’s right. Isn’t this clearly bullying our school?”
Despite their internal rivalries within different classes at school, they remained united when facing external challenges.
The principal of Fencheng No. 1 High School didn’t seem to mind and responded generously, “If you have more outstanding students who can participate, it’s also acceptable to us.”
His words made it sound as if they were being unreasonable. It was clear that they had bullied them first, causing harm to their student, and now they were playing the victim.
Principal Xu had never felt so frustrated before.
The onlooking students on the sports field also felt deeply frustrated.
It was not just an insult to their school anymore; it was an insult to every student at Zhenhai High School!
Mocking their large school for not being able to find a participant who could compete with them on an equal footing.
Wait, more outstanding participants?
Wasn’t the most outstanding student in their school?
Everyone’s eyes instantly turned to Lu Miao with sparkling eyes, looking at her expectantly.
Lu Miao was a super genius recognized by international academic experts!
Although the other students were also outstanding, in front of a true genius like her, they were simply not enough.
If Lu Miao was willing to participate, she would definitely be able to slaughter them all!
Principal Xu naturally thought of Lu Miao immediately.
However, he knew better than anyone else that Lu Miao did not care about Qingbei University’s recommendation at all.
If she wanted to go, there was no need for her to come to their school before school started.
This was also the reason why he did not force Lu Miao to participate in the competition when she refused to.
Moreover, Lu Miao did not like such high-profile events.
Previously, she had already given him face by agreeing to give a speech at the freshmen meeting. This time, he could not force her again.
He sighed helplessly and was about to resign himself to fate and take this loss. He would randomly find an eliminated contestant.
Lu Miao said slowly.
“Principal Xu, can I be a substitute?”
Principal Xu did not expect Lu Miao to step forward.
The grievance in his heart seemed to have found an exit in an instant. He hurriedly nodded. ” Of course!” “Ah, that’s great! Lu Miao, you can do it!” ‘ Lu Miao is the best. Go, Lu Miao. ‘ ‘ Lu Miao is the best. Go, Lu Miao. ‘
All the students on the field instantly cheered.
The cheers almost broke through the clouds!
At this moment, everyone’s blood boiled.
It was as if Lu Miao had become their goddess of war, bringing all their hopes to slash through thorns and thorns, killing the other party until there was nothing left!
Helpless, Lu Miao raised her hand and pressed down lightly. All the students on the field instantly shut up and fell silent.
“I have a request.”
“Tell me.” Principal Xu nodded.
“If I participate and win the championship, earning the opportunity for direct admission to Qingbei University, I request that this admission be given to the injured student.” Lu Miao said.
“Heh, you’re too arrogant, aren’t you? Someone who doesn’t even dare to participate in a competition, yet talks about giving away an admission opportunity. It’s truly laughable,” mocked a male student from Fencheng No. 1 High School.
“Yeah, I’ve heard that you only entered Zhenhai High School because your family donated a building to the school. Those awards of yours were all bought,” added a disdainful girl next to him.
Zhenhai High School’s online forum was not restricted, so these rumors couldn’t escape their attention.
“Young lady, you shouldn’t build your reputation like this. Pretending to be someone you’re not will only invite disaster,” jeered another male student..
