Chapter 83: Tang Feng’s Moment of Glory! (Part 2/2)

“Why haven’t you gone home yet?” Lu Tao changed the subject.

“It’s already this late, what’s the point of going back? I’ll just make do here for the night,” Zhang Wei answered.

“Then you should rest early! I need to get some sleep as well; I have to get up early tomorrow!” After saying this, Lu Tao left.

Quickly, a night passed.

By six in the morning, quite a few people had already arrived in the conference room, waiting.

Academician Gao and Academician Lin were among them.

“Academician Gao, you are advanced in years; you should sleep a bit more,” one professor suggested with concern.

“My sleep is always short. I slept for about five hours last night and feel quite refreshed,” Academician Gao responded.

“Academician Gao, after I went back last night, I reviewed Tang Feng’s derivation process again. There are three places where I feel my understanding is still not thorough enough. How about we discuss it before he arrives?” Academician Lin proposed.

“Sure! I also have some places I don’t understand!” Academician Gao agreed very readily.

The other attendees also hurriedly gathered around.

After all, if two heavyweight experts hadn’t completely figured it out, they didn’t even need to consider.

They took this opportunity to learn as well.

When Tang Feng and Su Xiaoli came out from the guest center, Lu Tao was already waiting at the door.

“Professor Lu!” Tang Feng greeted him as soon as he saw him.

“How did you sleep last night? Are you adapting well?” Lu Tao asked with a smile.

“Pretty good! Maybe because I was so busy yesterday, I fell asleep as soon as I lay down,” Tang Feng answered.

“That’s good! Academician Gao and the others are already waiting in the conference room, let’s hurry over,” Lu Tao called out.

Tang Feng looked surprised and asked, “It’s not even 6:30 yet, how come they went so early?”

“Probably excited. After all, the five formulas that had been troubling us were suddenly solved by you for two! Everyone is looking forward to you deriving the remaining three,” Lu Tao responded.

“It’s all my fault. If I had written down the derivation process of these formulas at that time, it wouldn’t have made everyone so anxious,” Tang Feng felt very embarrassed.

“It’s not your fault. Perhaps in your eyes, these formulas are not complicated,” Lu Tao said, shaking his head.

He spoke sincerely.

Because the level of mathematics displayed by Tang Feng truly far exceeded his expectations.

These formulas, which were incredibly difficult for them, seemed trivial in Tang Feng’s eyes!

He used them with great proficiency!

“We still have three formulas left; let’s aim to finish explaining them this morning. That way, we can go home in the afternoon,” Tang Feng said.

“Tang Feng, is there really a need to rush? I haven’t even taken you around the campus yet,” Lu Tao was very surprised.

“Next time. The admission notice from Jingcheng University already arrived in our hands yesterday. I want to go back to my hometown,” Tang Feng answered.

“Going back to your hometown? Are you planning to share the good news with your family and friends?” Lu Tao guessed.

“Well, the relatives and friends back home already know I was admitted to Jingcheng University. This time, I mainly want to visit my grandfather’s grave. I want to tell him about my admission to Jingcheng University,” Tang Feng explained.

“I see! In that case, I won’t keep you any longer! After lunch, I’ll take you back,” Lu Tao agreed.

He didn’t force the issue.

After all, what Tang Feng was doing was very important.

Before long, they arrived at the conference room.

Academician Gao and the others were still debating fiercely, but when they saw Tang Feng and others enter, they consciously stopped.

“Mr. Tang Feng, you’ve come at the right time! We have two questions that we couldn’t clarify here. Could you help us answer them first?” Academician Gao took the initiative to ask.

“Sure!” Tang Feng agreed very readily.

He looked at the two questions.

Then quickly explained them to everyone.

Everyone was initially confused, but after his explanation, it was as if clouds had parted to reveal the sun, instantly enlightening them.

“Mr. Tang Feng, you are truly amazing! Just a few words from you, and it was as if I had an epiphany!” Academician Gao couldn’t help but give a thumbs up.

He rarely praised people.

Even his doctoral students seldom received his commendation.

But facing Tang Feng, he was genuinely admiring!

“Academician Gao, you flatter me,” Tang Feng replied with a slight smile.

Lu Tao checked the attendance in the conference room.

“Mr. Tang Feng, all attendees are here. It’s all up to you now,” Lu Tao said.

“Okay,” Tang Feng nodded and walked to the podium.

Then, he began to explain the third formula.

Time ticked away.

Quickly, four hours passed.

Tang Feng finally finished explaining the remaining three formulas.

Academician Gao and the others used almost two notebooks just to record these processes.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I have told you the derivation process of all five formulas. After you go back, you can study them slowly. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can discuss it with each other. If you still can’t understand, when I report to Jingcheng University next time, you can come to me, and I will explain it to you. Thank you for spending so much time listening to my lecture,” Tang Feng said, then stepped forward, faced everyone, and bowed deeply.

Seeing this, Academician Gao and the others stood up.

The entire conference room erupted into warm applause.

“Mr. Tang Feng, do you have time at noon? I would like to invite you to lunch,” Academician Gao took the initiative to say.

“Academician Gao, when I picked him up this morning, I already told him that I would treat him to lunch,” Lu Tao said before Tang Feng could respond.

“Is that so? In that case, I won’t compete with you. But I have a request, can I join too?” Academician Gao negotiated.

“Ah! Academician Gao, what are you talking about! If you want to join, I would be more than happy,” Lu Tao quickly agreed.

“Me too!” Academician Lin also chimed in.

Gradually, a few more prominent figures expressed their desire to dine with Tang Feng.

The remaining professors, although they also wanted to join, naturally did not dare to speak up seeing so many people.

They could only wait for another opportunity.

Lu Tao originally intended to find a smaller private room at the school’s guest center to entertain Tang Feng and Su Xiaoli.

Seeing so many people participating, he hurriedly called to book a larger private room.

Then, the group made their way to the guest center in a grand procession.

It was just the end of the morning classes, so many teachers and students witnessed this scene.

“My goodness! What’s going on? Where did all these big shots come from?”

“Isn’t that Academician Gao Mingzhou? The textbook for the course I’m currently taking was edited by him!”

“And Academician Lin Zhiyuan! Many of the textbooks I’ve studied were also edited by him!”

“And Professor Lu Tao! He is the youngest professor in our Mathematics Department!”

“But wait! Why are there two students with them?”

“Could they be doctoral students they are supervising?”

“They don’t seem like it! The two students look even younger than us!”

“That boy is so handsome! He’s exactly my type!”

“And the girl is so pretty! She’s definitely campus belle material!”

“Could they be from our school?” someone guessed.

“Impossible! If they were from our school, how come we’ve never seen them before?”

“Let’s hurry to the forum and check! Maybe someone knows them!”

As everyone was discussing, Tang Feng and his group arrived at the guest center’s private room.

Everyone took their seats in order.

Tang Feng and Su Xiaoli initially wanted to just find seats and sit down.

But under the insistence of Gao Mingzhou and others, they ended up sitting in the most honored guest seats.

Lu Tao made some opening remarks.

Then everyone began to eat and chat.

Tang Feng, facing so many prominent figures, was obviously a bit restrained.

But it wasn’t his fault.

After all, even though he had received the system, there were many aspects where the system couldn’t help.

Whether it was experience or mindset, he needed to adjust and adapt on his own.

Fortunately, he had some experience from his previous life, though it hadn’t been very successful, so he wasn’t too overwhelmed.

Compared to him, Su Xiaoli was obviously more nervous.

However, Lu Tao had specially invited the female professor who sat with her in the conference room to come.

This way, Su Xiaoli also had someone to talk to.

The female professor chatted with Su Xiaoli about a lot.

She felt a bit regretful that Su Xiaoli had applied for the finance program.

If Su Xiaoli had applied for the mathematics department, she would have been very willing to have her as a graduate student.

That way, she could not only gain a promising student but also establish a closer connection with Tang Feng.

Nevertheless, she proactively gave Su Xiaoli her contact information, telling her to call if she needed anything.

Su Xiaoli was somewhat flattered by this.

During the lunch, Gao Mingzhou and others exchanged contact information with Tang Feng.

Soon, Tang Feng’s phone book grew by more than a dozen numbers.

After the meal, Lu Tao went to the front desk to pay the bill, and then everyone left the guest center.

Tang Feng said goodbye to Gao Mingzhou and the other big shots.

Lu Tao drove the car over.

Zhang Wei proactively came forward to open the door.

Tang Feng and Su Xiaoli thanked him, then got into the car.

Zhang Wei closed the door and sat in the passenger seat.

Tang Feng rolled down the window and waved goodbye to Gao Mingzhou and the others.

The car slowly drove away.

Until the car was out of sight, Gao Mingzhou and Lin Zhiyuan and the others also left the place.
