The game was extremely tense.

With the birth of the top three, all the players' pressure increased instantly.

The live broadcast continues:

"The fourth place, No. 1 player, Du Juan, took 2 minutes and 10 seconds, from Harvard University!"

"No. 5, No. 2 player, Miaomiao, took 2 minutes and 15 seconds, from Chenhua University!"

...

The heads of the players were "buzzing". Their psychological pressure at this time was completely different from before the game. Before the game, they might just have their heartbeats accelerated inexplicably, with a sense of tension of eagerness to try. At this time, there was an additional mentality of being inferior to others. Many players would suddenly become confused and have a vague interest in doubting themselves and questioning their lives. Of course, at the moment of this game, the nervous and impatient mentality occupies the main position.

Just imagine, I just came to the challenge area from the big screen. Li Fan had already completed the challenge. I just tore open the props and pushed a few sliders, but the second place suddenly appeared!

OK, I'm not as good as the first place; OK, I'm not as good as the second place; OK, I'm not as good as the third place... Damn, I can't even enter the top 20!!

The hundreds of people present were all promiscuous children. Some were from the Chinese high-IQ club, and many were the top scorers in the college entrance examinations in various provinces and cities. Many people grew up drinking "sweet words" since childhood and were always in a state of admiration, so everyone was naturally full of confidence.

As a result, at this moment, the Chinese geniuses gathered together, and they were instantly defeated by the previous players. This huge psychological gap is quite testable, and many players performed poorly.

The most annoying thing is that in addition to the staff constantly reporting the rankings and dozens of referees in black wandering around, host Jia Yun kept waving.

Jia Yun: "Li Fan, are you satisfied with your results just now?"

"It's OK."

"How difficult do you think this question is?"

"It's OK."

"Then which of these six abilities do you think will become your biggest weakness?"

"Capital power, uh, and observational power!"

...

A contestant glanced at the middle of the stage and was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Your grandma's leg, can you stop talking? We are distracted!!

Guest seat:

Doctor Chen: "This is a stressful environment specially created by the program team. From stage lighting to live music, from black-clad sunglasses referees to hosts, they will subconsciously affect the mentality of the contestants."

Wang Mu curled his lips: "You are so cruel. We are intellectual challenges and mental competition, there is no need!"

Taotaochen: "No, it is necessary. The ultimate goal of this session is to choose a comprehensive super genius, to stand on the world stage, without strong and stable psychological qualities, then the strength of the contestants will be greatly reduced."

While talking, Haha girl stood up excitedly, pointed to the competition area and shouted: "Look! Look! Zhou Qi, Zhou Qi is done!"

Several people glanced over, but saw Zhou Qi step by step with the help of his parents.

Zhou Qi's name was immediately displayed on the big screen, and the on-site staff began to broadcast:

"No. 25, No. 53, Zhou Qi, took 2 minutes and 26 seconds!"

There was a "wow" sound at the scene. Zhou Qi, a cerebral palsy patient, has advanced to the top 80. How can you be a normal person? How can you be a young man who is still burying his head to challenge the highest IQ in China?

The contestants couldn't help but wipe their foreheads, and they had never had any cerebral palsy! (This sentence does not need to be exaggerated or derogatory. It has no discrimination. It's just that people are amazed by normal psychology. They have no flaws and never do anything to others. How can they feel?)

"Bang!" Some contestant accidentally touched the slider in a hurry.

Some contestants' eyes were red and they were so anxious that they were about to cry.

Some contestants were sweating profusely and their hands were trembling uncontrollably.

...

"No. 35, No. 50..."

...

"No. 41, No. 80..."

...

After halfway through the competition, Li Fan's eyes swept away from the contestants one by one. He mainly observed the performance of several alumni, especially Lin Xiaofeng from his elite class.

After a while, when Lin Xiaofeng quickly pressed the timing device, the referee confirmed and raised the sign: It works!

Lin Xiaofeng shook her head, not satisfied with her results, but fortunately, she passed the test and passed the test with 52, which was a big improvement from the 85th in the preliminary round. In fact, this ranking is meaningless at all. Maybe this event will meet what you are good at and can rank in the top 10. The next event is your weakness, and then you will be eliminated without any fuss.

More than a minute later, the 80th place finally came out.

"No. 80th, No. 71 player Lei Jia took 4 minutes and 53 seconds! All the remaining 20 players will be eliminated!"

The stage lights suddenly became dark, and the sad music started to sound. The 20 eliminated contestants hung their heads and left the stage with great destruction.

Jia Yun: "Thank you, thank you for participating in the recording of "The Strongest Brain". The sword is sharpened, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. I hope that this small hardship will become a stepping stone on your life. Step over and smell the fragrance of plum blossoms again! Thank you, goodbye!"

The 20 backs left lonely. Before that, they silently looked up at the results on the big screen to see the gap between them and the advanced players.

On the big screen:

0 to 1 minute: 1 person, Li Fan. (Owned by the leader, dominates the first level.)

1 minute to 2 minutes: 2 people, Zhang Ye, awesome brother.

2 minutes to 3 minutes: 31 people...

3 minutes to 4 minutes: 40 people...

4 minutes to 5 minutes: 6 people...

The 80 genius players have extremely high standards, but there is a gap between ordinary people and geniuses, and there is still a huge gap between geniuses and peerless geniuses.

The audience was so happy to watch this, they liked to abuse the top students! They liked to watch them kill each other!

When all the tables on the stage were removed, Jia Yun said, "If you don't climb a high mountain, you don't know how high the sky is; if you don't face the deep stream, you don't know how thick the earth is. There are people outside of people and there are sky outside of heaven. I believe that after the competition just now, everyone has a deep feeling? At present, there are 80 people left, and we will conduct the second round of competition.

In the second round of competition, we designed a total of 6 challenge projects, which focused on spatial force, reasoning force, computing force, creativity, observation force and memory.

According to the results of the last round, 80 contestants stepped forward to choose the challenge projects according to their preferences. There are only 13 to 14 people participating in each event. The two contestants ranked last in each event were eliminated, and the one with the best score would get a direct quota and directly advance to the top 30!

Li Fan No. 88 ranked No. 1, last round, please go forward and choose!"

Everyone thought, there is no doubt that Li Fan will advance without any suspense. Memory is, Li Fan directly chose the memory challenge. If he fails, who can pass the competitions here?

But the next moment everyone opened their mouths wide and was shocked.

Li Fan didn’t choose to challenge memory at all!

He stood up from the contestant's seat, his intelligent eyes hesitated between the [Computation Challenge] and the [Observation Challenge], and then, beyond everyone's expectations, he strided to the back of the [Observation Challenge] sign.

Guest seat:

Brother Lei frowned: "He didn't actually choose [Memory Challenge]?"

Haha Sister: "Wow, he really came to challenge himself. He just said that his observation ability is his weakness, but he will challenge his weakness next?"

Wang Mu felt excited: Awesome, my handsome Li!

Jia Yun was so amused and crying for a moment. She turned her eyes to Zhang Ye, "No. 45, Zhang Ye, ranked 3rd in the qualifiers, ranked 2nd in the previous round, please choose!"

...

The 80 contestants quickly chose their own challenge projects. In this round, everyone chose what they are really good at. Who can choose what they are not good at? Everyone is not Li Fan!

Li Fan's realm is now higher. He is not afraid of failure. If he is afraid of failure, he will not come to participate in this show. When he comes here, on the one hand, he opens his eyes on the spot, and on the other hand, he simply thinks the challenge is interesting, and just tests his brain power limits.

He is obviously different from other players. With his current status, a failure in a challenge project will not have any substantial impact on him. Perhaps many people will think that the failed Li Fan is not perfect, but for Li Fan personally, Li Fan is still Li Fan, and his social status and personal achievements remain unchanged.

Li Fan’s idea is also very simple. He came here not to guarantee the guarantee, but to challenge his own limits. Even though he knew that he could pass the project with his eyes closed, why did he still choose?

Of course, only people with current mental states will have such extraordinary ideas. After all, challenge is their only pursuit for people like them.

But most players still need to be guaranteed and find a way to advance!

The recording of the program was temporarily stopped, everyone took a break, while the staff began to set the first challenge project.

The staff lifted more than 100 boards with a height of 2.5 meters. The multi-faceted boards were opposite each other, and spliced ​​together according to the number to form a "mouth" shape (top view from top to bottom) and enclosed the space. They then used boards to surround the city with a large "mouth" shape, so that they "circle" on the stage to form a "return" structure ("back": top to bottom view)

The contestants just showed various worships to Li Fan, but at this time, facing this unknown challenge, everyone became suspicious.

Lin Xiaofeng: "I think this must be another project to cheat my mother."

Brother Awesome glanced at Li Fan: "The guys in the last project didn't even know who the thirty-six Tiangang Stars meant. They lost here. The guys didn't choose this challenge project in this game, otherwise they would definitely give you a first place and let you see it!"

Zhang Ye glanced at him and thought to himself, why are you so bragging? Where did you put me?

After a moment of rest, the recording continues.

Jia Yun took the stage to introduce the details of the game.

The first challenge event to be carried out is [Observation Challenge], and 13 contestants who chose this event will be the first to challenge the event.

Project name: "Looking for Spring in the Desert".

"What is "Search for the Spring in the Desert"? Please watch the big screen!"

On the large screen, a rectangular pattern made of colorful fragments is displayed, with adjacent patterns of different shapes and colors.

"In this rectangular colored fragment wall, there are some colored fragments that can form 4 animals. If anyone finds it, you can raise your hand to indicate it."

The audience squinted their eyes and looked carefully, and only then did some people discover the four animals one after another.
To be continued...
