Professor Sun of the Archaeology Department stepped forward, looking at Professor Li with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes, "Poaching our talents, are we?"
Professor Li felt somewhat guilty, not expecting to be caught red-handed, even during the students’ winter break.
But upon further thought, Professor Li straightened up with self-righteous indignation, "So what if I am poaching? Bai Chuwei’s weakness is liberal arts, you shouldn’t hold back a science genius!"
The mustache on Professor Sun’s lips quivered, "She’s a prodigy!"
The Math Department’s professor was taken aback, his pupils dilating, and a guess dawned within him—could it be...?
With one hand on his hip, Professor Sun stood there, proudly strutting like a peacock in full display, "That’s right, Bai Chuwei’s average score in the Archaeology major this time is 92, ranking fifth in our department’s grade. As an outstanding student of our department, she will join us for a field internship at the archaeological site in Zhongzhou during this winter break!"
Professor Sun lifted his chin up high, as proud as if the outstanding score had been his own achievement!
"I’ve heard that Bai Chuwei only visited the library once. What does that tell you? It shows that she has been studying diligently in her spare time!"
Bai Chuwei: "..." She hadn’t, and she hadn’t even finished reading the books.
Meeting Bai Chuwei’s somewhat complicated gaze, Professor Sun was bewildered.
What did that look mean?
Bai Chuwei was not pleased; she only ranked fifth? With an average score of just 92? Shouldn’t it have been 100?
Who knew the history of the past five thousand years better than her?
Students around her, pushing their suitcases and preparing to leave the campus, gasped in surprise. Bai Chuwei ranked fifth in the entire Archaeology major?!!
This is Imperial University, the top institution in all of China, where even a less popular major like Archaeology was difficult, and scoring at the top was genuinely tough!
"Bai Chuwei, a prodigy in both arts and sciences? My God, are we even supposed to exist anymore?"
"Holy moly, do you know how many people are waiting online for Bai Chuwei’s Archaeology grade report? And she’s ranked fifth in her year?"
"Damn, damn, damn, I bow down to offer tea to such a boss!"
Professor Sun looked around at the expressions of the students with smug satisfaction, feeling as if their Archaeology major had finally got its moment to shine!
He had later reviewed Bai Chuwei’s test papers, every single one.
Apart from some bizarre general knowledge questions about archaeology, such as where Emperor Duanjing’s mausoleum was buried—the standard answer in the field of archaeology was near Mount Hengshan on the outskirts of the Imperial Capital—Bai Chuwei wrote: Eternal County in Zhongzhou.
Setting aside these bizarre answers, the rest of her responses were perfect!
What did this indicate? It showed that she also had a talent for Archaeology, and such a student absolutely could not be given up to other science majors!
Thinking of poaching? Sorry, but you’re all dreaming!
The counselor for the Archaeology major was decisive, swiftly at-mentioning all the members in the major’s chat group, announcing the list of the top five students eligible to join the professor in the field internship in Zhongzhou, which incited envy among the group members.
To know that in-field internships are usually only available at the end of the junior year, yet they, as freshmen, could now join.
Especially seeing the last name on the list reading "Bai Chuwei," they were even more in awe. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NovєlFіre.net
The Immortal Teacher is impressive indeed, so dominant in any major.
However, it seemed that her level in Archaeology wasn’t quite on par with the Chinese System, Earthquake Sensor, or photolithography machines.
Most of the academic geniuses in the group had high emotional intelligence and immediately congratulated the five outstanding students who had gained the opportunity.
Just then, a discordant voice cut in: "Did the professors give Bai Chuwei a backdoor deal? My average score in the major is exactly the same as Bai Chuwei’s, 92 points, both ranked fifth in the grade. Why does she get to participate and I don’t? I refuse to accept this!"
