Hearing Yan Zhongjing’s words, Luo Ke was directly stunned.

His jaw almost dropped in surprise, but fortunately, he quickly came back to his senses and closed his mouth.

Turning his head to the principal, "Principal Jason, is this true?"

Principal Jason nodded to Luo Ke, "Absolutely true."

The first batch of people admitted to the First Institute was a total of four, one of whom was Gu Zhiqi.

Principal Jason still remembered that when Gu Zhiqi was admitted to the First Institute, she was just over ten years old. Due to Gu Zhiqi’s and Nine Stars Academy’s requirements, when the admission list was released, only her score and nationality were disclosed, not her name.

However, although Jason had long known that Gu Zhiqi was a student of Nine Stars Academy from an early age, there had never been a situation before where someone who was already a student of Nine Stars Academy took the exam again. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

So, seeing that Gu Zhiqi was not on the admission list, Jason was a bit bewildered and immediately inquired with Nine Stars Academy.

After all, she was Nine Stars Academy’s treasure, so there was no room for carelessness.

Usually, it would take two or three days to get a reply, but this time, as soon as he sent the message, he got an instant reply.

The original intention over there was that since she was already a student of Nine Stars Academy, there was no need to admit her again. If she really wanted to retake, she could directly re-enroll at Nine Stars Academy without taking up a spot.

However, upon learning that Gu Zhiqi had amnesia and didn’t remember attending Nine Stars Academy, they immediately spoke decisively.

They said to first ask Gu Zhiqi’s preference, allowing her to go directly to Nine Stars Academy to enroll, or they would draft a new acceptance list—essentially, whatever Gu Zhiqi wanted.

Hearing Jason’s affirmative answer, Luo Ke fell silent, and after a long time, he asked, "When did she get into the First Institute?"

Principal Jason: "The first batch."

Luo Ke: "6!"

Wait... the first batch?!

If he remembered correctly, Gu Zhiqi was only in senior high school, right?

Senior high school students are usually around eighteen years old, and the first batch of admissions was about eight years ago...

Eight years ago, Gu Zhiqi was only about ten years old, right?

Took the exam for the First Institute at around ten years old...

That’s insane!

Finally, Luo Ke left in a daze.

Yan Zhongjing and Jason watched Luo Ke’s bewildered departure, as if seeing their former selves.

They shook their heads in unison and sighed.

Back then, when they learned that the ten-year-old Gu Zhiqi got into the First Institute, their reaction was exactly the same as Luo Ke’s now.

After shaking their heads, the two retracted their gaze, exchanged a glance, and continued towards the integrated building office.

**

The time difference between Central Continent City and Xia Country is 12 hours.

When Luo Ke replied to Mo Zeming’s message, it was already 7 p.m. in Central Continent City, while it was 7 a.m. the next day at Mo Zeming’s side.

Morning study started at seven thirty, and since Mo Zeming lived in a school district apartment, it only took ten minutes to get to school, so he usually left at around seven fifteen.

Therefore, when Luo Ke sent him the message, Mo Zeming had not left the house yet.

Immediately upon receiving Luo Ke’s message, Mo Zeming looked at it right away. After reading it, he froze on the spot.

Gu Zhiqi was already a student of the First Institute!

And in the first batch at that?!

How old was she at that time?!

Holding the phone, Mo Zeming sat there dazed for a long time without moving.

Just when Mo Zeming was zoning out, he received another message from Luo Ke.

[Luo Ke: Your student is a Central Continent Academy student; how do you, as a teacher, not know?]

Mo Zeming: "..."

It’s not just me; I bet even her parents don’t know.
