1907 Such Heaven-Defying Results Were Actually Overshadowed



She thought that Ji Hongfeng's first place was almost certain this time.

Unexpectedly, upon a closer look, she saw that the first ranking in the first row was written—1st place, Qiao Nian!

The results column behind the first place name was still blank. It had not been announced at all.

Ji Ziyin suppressed her shock and forced herself to look down. Second place was Ji Hongfeng. The results column behind his name was not empty. Instead, it filled in the experiment level and completion rate like before.

"The second place did a Level 5 experiment with a 78% completion rate? Damn, what experiment level did the first place do? What was the completion rate?"

"Second place did a Level 5 experiment? Are the candidates so good this year?"

"Why is the first place's results column blank?"

"Has this happened before?"

Someone answered him, "I've never heard of it. In the past, the results were always announced at once. I've never heard of anyone suppressing the results and not making them public."

"Why did the research institute make an exception this time? What's going on?"

The lounge was filled with noisy discussion. These discussions were basically focused on Qiao Nian and Ji Hongfeng.

There was no doubt about Ji Hongfeng's results. A 78% completion rate for a Level 5 experiment was already very heaven-defying.

However, such a heaven-defying result was suppressed by someone.

Everyone was more curious about how heaven-defying the result of the first place was. It could make the First Research Institute choose not to make it public.

"Qiao Nian got first place?" Ji Xiao couldn't believe his eyes. His face was filled with shock as he looked at the rolling screen. "What's wrong with her? Was there a mistake?"

He Lin did not expect Qiao Nian's name to be firmly at the top. He had never dreamed of it.

He Lin also turned to speak to Ji Ziyin. "Miss Ji, why haven't the results of the first place been announced? Do you know what's going on?"

Ji Ziyin opened her mouth, but nothing came out.

Ji Hongfeng had yet to come out. How could she know what was going on inside?!

Ji Ziyin took a deep breath and said with a solemn expression, "I'll call and ask."

He Lin and Ji Xiao had no objections. They also wanted to know Qiao Nian's final results.

Ji Ziyin took her cell phone and walked away to make a call.

She was also from the First Research Institute. These people outside did not have the means to inquire about internal information, but she had her own connections and ways.

After a while, Ji Ziyin found out about the results of the first place in the second round this year.

"What?!"

The lounge was filled with people. Everyone was still discussing the results this time.

Ji Ziyin's sudden shout caused everyone's eyes to focus on her.

Ji Ziyin was quite famous on the Independent Continent. Someone recognized her and whispered to his companion who she was.

He Lin frowned and walked over. Seeing Ji Ziyin's pale face, he couldn't help but ask her, "Miss Ji, what's wrong?"

Ji Ziyin hurriedly hung up the phone and met his curious gaze. She stood rooted to the ground, her eyes blank. She couldn't recover for a long time. "I asked about the first place's results."

"What experiment level did she do?" He Lin's eyes lit up. He immediately grabbed her shoulder, clearly concerned.

Ji Ziyin's expression was very complicated. She looked at him and hesitated, then pursed her lips and finally said with difficulty, "Level 8."

Many people were paying attention to her. When she said that she had found out the first place's results, they anxiously waited to hear what she would say next.
