In the days that followed, Ji You and his classmates continued their routine training. After confirming the 10 students representing the 131st cohort in the inter-school competition, Teacher Mu Jianling seemed to have completely forgotten about it. He neither mentioned it in class nor conducted special training for the 10 participants, adopting an attitude of "let fate take its course."
After emphasizing the importance of the competition results to the 10 participants, Teacher Mu Jianling didn't provide any additional training, but rather maintained a laid-back attitude. This wasn't just puzzling to outsiders; even the students of the 131st cohort couldn't hold back. After class that day, Zhang Ye couldn't restrain himself any longer, stood up, and loudly asked, "Teacher… with less than 5 days left until the inter-school competition, shouldn't you be giving Ji You and his peers some special guidance?"
Mu Jianling asked, "What kind of guidance?"
