Chapter 272 Cursed by the God of Sports
There are 58 high schools in the main urban area of Nancheng City, and 100 high schools in the suburban areas.
If each high school has to send three girls to participate in the competition, the preliminaries will take a lot of time.
Therefore, all participating students must meet the competition standards to participate in today's competition.
In addition to the competition standards, they must also achieve the full score of 800 meters for female high school students in Huaxia Country.
If the number of people who achieve full marks is not enough, then the number of people who achieve full marks will be counted.
Those who do not meet the standards are not even qualified to participate in today's competition.
Each school must submit everyone's competition video, generally speaking, it cannot be faked.
Of course, some people want to fake in order to allow students to participate.
But when they think that if they cheat and come in, the difference between their scores and others will be too big, and they will definitely be exposed, no one wants to cheat.
There are a total of 80 students participating in the competition today, from 60 high schools.
Some schools can have three people participate, and some schools cannot have anyone participate.
This year, Nancheng No. 1 Middle School has a total of three people participating, including Qiao Ningxun.
The first is the preliminaries, and the order is determined by drawing lots.
The top 30 will be selected from the preliminary round to participate in the semifinals, and eight will be selected from the semifinals to participate in the finals, so the competition is fierce.
Qiao Ningxun, Shen Yujia and Lian Zixuan were divided into three groups respectively.
Shen Yujia was in the first group, Lian Zixuan was in the third group, and Qiao Ningxun was in the sixth group.
At this time, all three were in the waiting area, waiting for the competition.
After a long time, as expected, the three students from Nancheng No. 1 Middle School all entered the semifinals.
Seeing this, Principal Yao of Nancheng No. 1 Middle School still had a big stone in his heart.
Every time the school participated in a sports competition, he was the most nervous.
There was no way. Although the students in his school were very good at studying, they had been ranked last in sports several times.
You should know that his No. 1 Middle School has the word "first" in its name, and its cultural performance ranks among the best in the city, but it always ranks last in sports, which makes him feel ashamed after every sports competition.
The preliminary results of the three students were not very good.
Although it is normal to suppress scores in the preliminary rounds, in order to prevent people from seeing their true strength, it is normal for students in No. 1 Middle School to suppress scores in academic performance, but can scores in sports competitions be suppressed?
He would never believe it.
Principal Yao was full of worries. When would their school produce someone who is all-round in both sports and culture, so that No. 1 Middle School can be proud of him!
Seeing that Teacher Wei next to him looked relaxed, Principal Yao felt a little unbalanced.
He, a principal, was so nervous here. Why was he, the person who selected the contestants, so relaxed?
"Ahem." Principal Yao suddenly coughed lightly, "Teacher Wei, the preliminary results are over. Do you think the three female students you selected this time have a chance to enter the top three with their scores? No, top ten?"
Before Teacher Wei came today, he did not tell the principal that there was a good seedling like Qiao Ningxun.
He firmly believed that things could not be said rashly before they were successful, otherwise they would definitely fail.
Although Qiao Ningxun entered the semi-finals at this time, he still did not intend to say that Qiao Ningxun's best ranking in the school was enough to take first place.
"Principal Yao, relax. I feel that this time, three students have entered the semi-finals. It should be a good start. Maybe all the students can get a place."
"You said it as if you didn't say it." Principal Yao was very helpless and continued to wait for the semi-finals to start.
Although the competition time was very tight, everyone was equally tired, so there was no fairness or unfairness.
Qiao Ningxun, Shen Yujia, and Lian Zixuan were also divided into three groups this time.
Principal Yao continued to watch nervously.
I just didn't expect that the students of No. 1 Middle School performed very well this time and all entered the finals successfully.
Principal Yao looked at Teacher Wei in disbelief, "This year, all the female students in our school entered the finals?"
Teacher Wei smiled and said, "Yes."
Principal Yao frowned and said, "I heard that the students participating in the competition are all in the second or third year of high school. Except for Qiao Ningxun, I know she is a transfer student. Why didn't the other two participate in the competition last year?"
If they had participated, he might have been proud last year.
He clearly remembered that only two people in the school met the standards for participating in the competition last year.
But even so, those two people didn't even make it to the semi-finals.
And her results in the preliminaries were also the last.
Teacher Wei: "Shen Yujia had a family death last year, and she was not in a good mood for the whole semester, so her results did not meet the standard. This year, she adjusted her mentality, so her speed increased and reached the competition standard."
"Lian Zixuan was not feeling well at this time last year, and she did not meet the competition standard, so I asked others to participate in the competition."
Principal Yao sighed and said, "So that's how it is."
After waiting for a while, the finals began.
The teachers of all schools became nervous again.
Especially Principal Yao, seeing that three students from his school entered the finals, the chances of getting the top three were greatly increased, and he was more nervous than ever.
After a while, it was their turn to go on stage.
As the starting gun sounded, the three people and people from other schools rushed out at the same time.
Qiao Shulan did not go to Qiao's Fresh Food today, and came with her parents to cheer for her daughter.
Seeing that her daughter was temporarily ranked third, Qiao Shulan was very nervous.
After Qiao Ningxun ran half a lap, Qiao Kangsheng asked nervously: "Is Ningxun okay? Didn't she say before that she likes to always be ranked first? Why is she ranked third today?"
Qiao Shulan knew that if she was anxious, her parents would definitely be more anxious, so she pretended to be calm and said: "I don't know, I just heard from Yuan Huai that running requires skills. She tried her best at the beginning, but she had no strength in the last lap. I guess her physical education teacher taught her the skills."
Ye Caixiang said: "I have heard that you can't run too hard at the beginning of running. Let's wait and see."
At this time, Teacher Wei saw that Qiao Ningxun was always in the top three, and finally had the confidence to explain: "Principal Yao, you see that Qiao Ningxun's performance is still very stable. This time our school We will definitely get a ranking. Our school will no longer be the No. 1 Middle School that is considered by other schools to be smart but simple-minded. "
Principal Yao also saw Qiao Ningxun's ranking at this time, and said with a face full of resentment: "Teacher Wei, when did you not say this? But in the end? Didn't we rank last? I don't know if our school is cursed by the God of Sports."
"One year, someone from our school had already entered the top five, but he suddenly had a stomachache and ran from fifth to last."
"Another year, someone from our school had been ranked first, but suddenly fell in the last half of the lap. Although he was not the last, he was the third from the bottom, which was not much better than the last. "
