Chapter 431 Jiang Xu, You Really Deserve to Die 1


    Trantor: 549690339 |?? —


    Wang Shiya wore a pure white dress today, like a flower blooming in spring fresh and delicate.


    Her skirt swayed gently with her light steps, as if it were a flowing painting. She moved with a graceful and elegant poise.


    Her demeanor was extraordinary, as elegant as an orchid, emitting a faint fragrance.


    Her bright eyes seemed to hold a sea of stars, twinkling with the light of wisdom.


    Every move she made was filled with feminine softness and strength, yet it carried a hint of frost, making people swoon while keeping them at bay. A girl like this, no matter where she was, always stood out the most.


    Her every action attracted countless attentive gazes.


    Seeing Wang Shiya heading towards Jiang Xu, some of the male students couldn’t hold back.


    “Damn it, what’s going on, has the school beauty of Zhi Jiang University taken a fancy to Jiang Xu too?”


    “Jiang Xu, you scoundrel, isn’t having An Nuonuo enough for you?”


    “Damn, you really should die!”


    “System, where are you? Let me take over his body, please!”


    Wang Shiya ignored everyone’s discussions and odd looks, walking up to Jiang


    She handed over a business card with a cool voice, saying, “We might have the chance to coborate on developing software in the future.”


    “Boom!”


    This scene immediately set off an uproar among those from Zhi Jiang University.


    Wang Shiya was notoriously stand-offish at school.


    It wasn’t just about handing out business cards proactively; even adding her contact information was incredibly difficult for others.


    The crowd could not help but turn their gazes towards Chen Xiaolong.


    Your unrequited love, the goddess, seems to be falling in love.


    Chen Xiaolong, however, appeared veryposed.


    Because after returningst night, he had gone to talk to Wang Shiya. He highly praised Jiang Xu and felt that he was someone worth reaching out to. If he seemed reliable after some time, they could consider coborating. Although Chen Xiaolong was lovesick, he could still prioritize.


    A good coborator could bring immense rewards for himself and his family. Jiang Xu was startled.


    He quickly took the business card and then handed his own to Wang Shiya with both hands.


    Wang Shiya nodded slightly and returned to her seat.


    “Your charm is really something,” Lu Chao said sourly from the side. “Even goddesses of this caliber are so proactive with you, ugh, scumbag.” Jiang Xu:


    He clearly hadn’t done anything at all.


    After this brief interlude, thepetition officially began.


    Before it started, all electronic devices on the contestants had to be handed over.


    The spectators were isted and forbidden from speaking.


    The individualpetition was up first.


    There were five judges, teachers from several other universities.


    One of the judges announced the rules of thepetition.


    “For the individualpetition, there is a piece of software on yourputers. Within half an hour, fix the bugs in it-there are a hundred in total.


    Fixing one bug earns one point, with a time limit of half an hour.


    Those scoring below ny points will be eliminated. Start now.”


    Jiang Xu opened the software the judge had mentioned and immediately began to work.


    The only sounds in the venue were those of keyboards being typed on intermittently.


    The higher-ups from Magic University were all incredibly tense.


    The oue of thispetition was critical for the future of their school.


    Their eyes were primarily on Jiang Xu.


    This time, their sess depended on him.


    On the contrary, the higher-ups from Zhi Jiang University were rxed and at ease.


    Past achievements led them to disregard Magic Universitypletely.


    The only high-level representative they sent to thispetition was one individual.


    In their minds, Magic University was no longer a rival.


    It took less than two minutes for Jiang Xu to find three bugs.


    He nced over at An Nuonuo and Lu Chao.


    Their expressions were calm, suggesting they were not having too much trouble either.


    However, as time went on, the difficulty of finding bugs increased.


    Fifteen minutes had passed, and Jiang Xu had found sixty-eight bugs.


    The expressions of the others had also be more serious.


    When twenty-five minutes had psed, Jiang Xu had found ny-nine bugs.


    But no matter what, he couldn’t find thest one.


    Jiang Xu’s thoughts wandered, “Is thest bug really well hidden, or did the teacher throw in a red herring and there aren’t actually a hundred?”


    Jiang Xu was more inclined to believe thetter.


    So, he went through the software again, more carefully this time.


    With three minutes remaining, Jiang Xu was startled to find that he had discovered another five bugs.


    He was stunned.


    This didn’t add up.


    Was it an ‘Easter egg’ deliberately set up in the problem, or was there some other reason?


    The countdown had already begun at this point.


    Many people started to panic.


    Jiang Xu took a deep breath, trying to stay as calm as possible.


    He checked the entire software onest time.


    “Time’s up, everyone hands off the keyboards and step back!”


    The judge’s voice rang out.


    All the contestants stood up and stepped away from theirputers.


    Specific teachers began to check each contestant’s findings.


    The scene was very quiet; no one spoke.


    Five minutester, after some discussion among the judges, the scores were announced.


    “First ce goes to… Jiang Xu, 102 points.


    Tied for second ce are An Nuonuo, Chen Xiaolong, and Wang Shiya, with 101 points.


    Second ce, Lu Chao, with one hundred points, third ce…”


    Jiang Xu had guessed correctly.


    Among the extra ‘Easter eggs,’ some of the bugs were fake.


    If changed, the whole program would copse, possibly resulting in zero points.


    The teacher who set this question was definitely a trickster.


    Without top-notch skills, coupled with a certain amount of guts, one wouldn’t dare make a move like Jiang Xu did.


    “Apuse!”


    The students of Magic University began pping excitedly.


    Though it was not a crushing victory, they had at least won the individualpetition this time!


    The faces of the people from Zhi Jiang University darkened, feeling a sense of humiliation.


    To think, they had lost to Jiang Xu!


    A student who couldn’t ept the result shouted, “Teacher, why does Jiang Xu


    get 102 points? Please exin it carefully!”


    The judge smiled and said, “It’s quite simple, because there were extra points in the problem.


    Finding them and resolving them shows that Jiang Xu’s skills have reached a very high level.”


    The apuse grew even more enthusiastic.


    Even the higher-ups of Magic University couldn’t help but join in the pping.


    It had to be Jiang Xu indeed!


    Once again, he made them proud and salvaged their reputation.


    With Jiang Xu around, there were no surprises.


    “Damn, is this guy’s IT strength also so terrifying?” Chen Xiaolong murmured


    to himself, finding it hard to keep hisposure.


    For the first time, he felt the oppressive presence of a ‘Son of Destiny’ like in the novels.


    Then, ncing at Wang Shiya’s expression, Chen Xiaolong’s heart skipped a beat.


    He saw Wang Shiya’s eyes zing with a fierce fire, looking at Jiang Xu.


    She had already considered Jiang Xu her number one rival!
