74: Chapter 66: The Calm Madness (Please Subscribe, Request Monthly Ticket) 74: Chapter 66: The Calm Madness (Please Subscribe, Request Monthly Ticket) Qiao Yu slept soundly this time, and when he woke up, he found a blanket draped over him.

The sky outside the window was just starting to brighten.

He got up and checked his phone, seeing it was only 5:40 in the morning.

It was still early, but he seemed to have fallen asleep on the bed around eight last night, so he ended up sleeping for almost nine hours.

Thinking of this, Qiao Yu felt invigorated, and the remaining drowsiness disappeared without a trace.

He tiptoed out of his room, used the bathroom, washed up briefly, and then returned to his room, sitting down in front of the computer.

His memories began replaying in his mind while he was washing up just now.

Yesterday, after proudly directing views on that small forum, he originally planned to just rest on the bed for a while.

Once people in the forum realized what had happened, and someone dared to argue, he would continue the battle.

Who knew he would fall asleep directly…

He could only say that he really sacrificed a lot to solve that problem.

If he didn’t blow his own horn on the forum, Qiao Yu would feel genuinely unworthy after all these days of burning the midnight oil.

And yet, at the moment of enjoying the fruits of victory, he fell asleep!

This directly led to a somewhat inexplicable sadness when he turned on the computer.

It felt very much like expecting to earn ten thousand yuan, but because he overslept, only earning three thousand.

After all, there’s a kind of satisfaction that peaks at the end, and he perfectly missed it.

However, when the computer screen lit up, Qiao Yu was surprised to find his post had been pinned.

The private message icon in the upper right corner showed the number 37.

Qiao Yu wasn’t in a hurry to look at the private messages.

He first opened his post.

Over a hundred screens of messages, he read through them one by one and quickly noticed something was off.

Judging by the tone of the commenters, they didn’t seem like ordinary math enthusiasts as he had initially thought.

With a suspicious mindset, he clicked on the private messages, and his previous doubts were instantly confirmed.

Most of the private messages were directly asking for his contact information.

Qiao Yu wasn’t too worried that these people were quarrelsome online and wanted to confront him offline, because apart from a few IDs calling him “Boss,” most people straightforwardly introduced their affiliations.

From Yanbei, from Huaqing, from Shuangdan, from Yujiang, from Ke University, from Jiang University, from Kainan…

Oh?

Even the University of Cambridge using its English name sneaked in.

Honestly, at that moment, Qiao Yu was a bit unsettled.

Had he poked a hornet’s nest made up of famous Huaxia universities and some University of Cambridge last night?

What exactly was the tier of this so-called Algebra and Number Theory Treehouse math forum?

Qiao Yu very seriously reread the content of his post, then without changing his expression, directly moved the mouse and clicked X in the upper right corner of the webpage.

It wasn’t that he was afraid of these people.

But after learning that those who were idling away on the forum and teasing newcomers might all be professors from well-known Huaxia universities, Qiao Yu decided he couldn’t reveal his identity for now.

The reason was simple.

After Lan Jie reminded him, he specifically browsed through the list of members of the Little Alibaba International Mathematics Competition Organizing Committee and the jury experts.

Indeed, there were many professors from famous Huaxia universities.

The most crucial thing was that just now, he really saw some names in the private messages that matched those of the competition jury experts.

Even if those professors who weren’t jury experts probably knew people in there.

He had referred to himself as “Young Master” in the post and even advised these old guys not to get angry too soon…

In case his identity was exposed before the competition, what if these guys weren’t fair when scoring his competition results?

He couldn’t risk betting twenty thousand yuan in prize money on the character of these top university professors, right?

According to Qiao Yu’s experiences over the years, people are inherently emotional creatures.

If when evaluating his answers, they thought of his provocation in the post and decided to give him a little dose of the math world’s lessons, deductions that could have been avoided weren’t.

Originally he could have gotten a gold medal, but if he only got the silver medal, the prize money would halve instantly, and his losses would be significant.

This truly called for despair; he originally thought he had casually found a math forum, just a place for ordinary math enthusiasts to exchange ideas—it turned out to be a gathering spot for professors from well-known domestic universities.

Had he known, he definitely would’ve behaved more compliant, buttering them up massively.

Then he would have revealed his identity in private messages to these bigwigs, so even if his answers had minor errors, maybe the jury experts would overlook them for his understanding nature.

Originally, he might have gotten only a silver medal; who knows, it might turn into a gold medal.

Strategic error!

Luckily, Qiao Yu had a good mindset; he turned it around and set this matter aside, standing up to start packing what he needed for the trip.

Little Alibaba arranged for him and the good guy to have a high-speed train ticket for ten forty this morning, arriving in Xiao Zhou at around four twenty in the afternoon.

Lan Jie had also arranged early, meeting at the neighborhood entrance at nine twenty this morning.

Actually, the organizing committee intended for him to go over yesterday, saying that according to the original plan, going two days earlier would allow him to visit Little Alibaba headquarters and Xiao Lake University with other finalists, but he politely declined using the excuse that his guardian wasn’t available.

He wasn’t too interested in sightseeing.

Arriving a day later, he could study one more day at home, which was the most important.

There’s no way; Qiao Yu felt his base was weaker than those who received formal training, so even a few extra hours of study was valuable.

Often, the winning odds accumulate from these small details bit by bit.
