Chapter 57: The Envied Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University

The foreign reporter ahead spoke loudly, visibly excited, his face full of contempt.

Looking at that reporter's demeanor, if the scene didn't forbid it, he would really step forward and give the Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University students a beating!

The current audience—namely the students from various top universities—also looked very angry.

"Damn it! What the hell is Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University doing! If you don't want to compete or lack confidence, you shouldn't have signed up in the first place! Is this your school's competition? This is the competition of all Huaxia!"

"I feel sick! The students of Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University disgust me! I really have to suspect that these Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University students have taken money from others!"

"I used to think Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University was a decent school; I almost applied there myself. Now… pah! Good thing my choice back then was wise."

The classmates all became agitated, almost spitting toward the position of Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University.

The atmosphere on site became… very worrying.

This is indeed a competition between students, but… it's actually a competition between students of different countries!

A sense of collective honor is absolutely one of the most important things for the Huaxia people.

They can tolerate Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University's technology being inferior to others, but they absolutely cannot tolerate Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University losing without a fight.

One misstep, and starting today Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University will face its biggest crisis since its founding!

This is no joke; absolutely do not underestimate the students' power!

Now, even someone has taken out a camera to start recording the scene's changes.

Afterwards… these photos will spread across the entire internet!

…

Lao Li is under great pressure now; as the veteran principal of Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University, he has weathered many storms and has a keen intuition.

He has already realized the gravity of the situation and couldn't help but look toward Lu Yu.

Lu Yu is the leader of this competition; one could even say that without Lu Yu's persuasion, Lao Li might not have allowed Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University to participate.

Now… the situation has exceeded his expectations.

"Xiao Yu… what… what's going on now?" Lao Li asked, looking at Lu Yu.

Lu Yu's expression remained calm the whole time, as if he hadn't heard the surrounding students' chatter nor noticed anything abnormal among the Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University students on the field.

"Just wait. Believe me, believe in our Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University students." Lu Yu didn't even look at Lao Li, merely saying it lightly.

Lu Yu's eyes kept fixed on the Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University students' side, as well as… and ahead, a huge countdown.

Lao Li's brows were tightly knit, his expression grave; he opened his mouth, then opened it again, but ultimately didn't know what to say.

Now it's no longer a matter of whether to believe or not!

The severity of the consequences—let alone Lu Yu, a mere child, even Lao Li as principal might not be able to bear it!

But… now, Lao Li really doesn't know what he should do!

…

Several students of Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University, at this moment… were actually nervous as well.

They sat together in front of the computer, eyes fixed on the time displayed and the opponent's progress.

According to their estimate, the opponent would likely break through in about fifteen minutes, while our side had completely no defensive firewall!

That is to say, in fifteen minutes they would lose.

They are currently doing nothing at all.

Have they already given up?

Of course not!

They are waiting, waiting for time to pass.

Why?

Because before the competition, Lu Yu and they had analyzed the strength of the British Student Representatives!

"Their strength is actually considerably weaker than yours."

"For the first ten minutes after the competition starts, you must not take any action."

"After ten minutes, it will be your battle."

"If you can't even do that, then don't talk about the finals."

"Just say goodbye to the International Cybersecurity Competition right here."

These were Lu Yu's exact words to them.

They felt… it made perfect sense.

One could say that the British Student Representatives are the weakest group; if they cannot "let the opponent win within ten minutes," then they truly have no right to win the competition.

Giving the opponent ten minutes puts tremendous pressure on them.

Remember, this is a competition!

A competition that requires seizing every second.

In fact, this competition can be regarded as a game match.

Have you ever seen a match where one side gives the opponent ten minutes of development time?

…

Time slipped away minute by minute, second by second.

The competition time has arrived, 01:50 up!

This is the countdown; the total competition time is two hours, and ten minutes have officially passed.

The British Student side has already breached the two firewalls of Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University, and is now launching a fierce assault on their final firewall!

In gaming terms, it's as if the opponent has already destroyed three high-ground towers and is now attacking the crystal!

Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University is in dire straits!

At that very moment, the five students of Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University finally moved!

Clack-clack, the sound of the keyboard being slapped rang out.

They rose and fell alternately.

Five classmates immediately entered a state of full concentration.

They were about to launch their own battle!

……

"They moved, the athletes from Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University finally moved; even after ten minutes had passed, they still started moving."

"What prompted them to act? Was it the last shred of shame in their hearts? But… is that useful?"

"Ten whole minutes have passed! What does Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University have to win against the opponent?"

"Here, I just want to say one thing: if you're unwilling from the start, why not give it a try?"

"Waiting until the last moment to act—are you trying to create a tragic image?"

"No way, no way; these Huaxia students wouldn't be thinking of gaining sympathy, would they?"

"That's rather ridiculous!"

"You don't put in effort or struggle, yet you want to gain sympathy this way?"

"Huaxia… is getting worse and worse."

The foreign reporter spoke up, his tone full of mockery, his face even showing undisguised contempt.

The camera also gave Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University a close-up at this moment.

This… really is a scene full of irony.

Right, this reporter's voice isn't small!

Many spectators in the venue also heard the reporter's voice.

Then…

The atmosphere on site grew increasingly heavy; the spectators' gazes toward Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University even carried killing intent!

Yes!

They are no longer looking down on them; they now harbor hatred!

A fire burns in their hearts, about to engulf them themselves!
