This person's words quickly shifted everyone's attention back to this mysterious Zero. Chen Mo's code name is a period, a very small symbol that one might not even notice. Somehow, these people mistook the period for Zero.

This Professor Forum is actually established by professors from the computer science departments of famous universities in the country. Those who can join the Professor Forum are not ordinary people; it can be said that the participants in this forum represent the highest level of computer education in the country.

Like the college students, the professors here also engage in open and covert competition. For these professors, being subordinate to others is absolutely a disgrace, so they often bicker with each other on this forum, engaging in open and covert rivalries.

Of course, everyone is a person of high status, so although they often bicker, they maintain restraint and do not curse like college students, at most just joking around.

This forum has been established for several years. After such a long time of open and covert competition, everyone has already formed a judgment of each other's strength. The sudden appearance of Zero has left everyone very puzzled, because this person's speed of answering questions is simply too fast.

For example, the question from Huqing University, many professors were calculating the result, but before they could finish, Zero had already answered correctly. Then, the question from Jingcheng University was also answered by him at an incredible speed. This speed left the well-known professors of the computer science departments of these universities in awe. Many people were thinking: This guy is really amazing, at least in terms of quick calculation and computer programming, he is stronger than me!

Actually, the math problem was not too difficult, many people could solve it. The real challenge was how to write it in computer language, which involves rigorous logical operations and the conversion process from the calculation result to computer language. To achieve Chen Mo's speed, if you are not extremely familiar with programming, you shouldn't even think about it.

At this moment, someone asked who Zero was, but no one came forward to admit it for a long time. After waiting for a while, the person who asked spoke again: "Old Wang, is this Zero you?"

Old Wang is Professor Wang Hongxing from the computer science department of Linhai University. Seeing this message, he typed with a bitter smile: "My level is well-known to everyone. Do you think I can reach the level of Zero?"

Everyone saw Wang Hongxing's response and replied:

"Is this Zero really not you?"

"Impossible! You didn't say anything just now, I thought you went to block those college students. If you are not Zero, then who is controlling the Linhai University Computer Forum now?"

"Exactly, the Linhai University Computer Forum was created by you. If you are not Zero, how could this person create a forum section on your controlled forum?"

The reason Wang Hongxing did not speak just now was that he was investigating the identity of this Zero who had intruded into the forum. From this person's words and actions, he seemed to be from Linhai University; otherwise, who would have the time and energy to fight for the honor of Linhai University against so many people?

However, Wang Hongxing's investigation yielded no clues. At the same time, he was deeply impressed by Zero's technical skills. Zero's intrusion was silent and extremely fast. Wang Hongxing didn't even notice until Zero had successfully intruded and immediately defended against such a terrifying attack!

Wang Hongxing really couldn't think of anyone else at Linhai University who could have such formidable strength. Such strength would likely make him stand out even in the Professor Forum.

Thinking about this, Wang Hongxing replied: "Everyone, when have I ever lied? This Zero is definitely not me, I can guarantee that."

Seeing this, everyone fell into deep thought. They knew Wang Hongxing well; if he said it wasn't him, then it probably wasn't. But if Zero is not him, then who could it be? Could there really be such a hidden expert at Linhai University?

At this moment, the students urged the professors to give out questions, and the professors immediately got busy, no longer thinking about this matter.

After about ten minutes, the professors from several universities handed the questions to their top students, and the competition resumed.

Next, it was Dongfang University's turn to give a question, which was still related to programming. Chen Mo couldn't help but be delighted when he saw the type of question: "Just as I expected, the questions these people give are indeed related to programming. It's really hard for me not to win!"

Without a doubt, Chen Mo answered this question at an incredibly fast speed, and the answer was correct.

As a result, Linhai University added ten more points, bringing the total to thirty points. In contrast, the other universities still had zero points.

The fourth question was given by Fudan University, and it was still a programming question. Chen Mo took the lead again and scored ten more points. His performance was truly extraordinary; he gave the answer in less than twenty seconds after the question was issued. If you exclude the time he spent typing, his actual thinking time was definitely no more than fifteen seconds.

Such speed left the participants in the competition with their jaws dropped. Initially, some people expressed amazement after Chen Mo answered, but after he continued to perform in this manner, no one spoke anymore. Everyone was simply too shocked to know what to say.

Since Linhai University had previously stated that the challenger was only Chen Mo, the people from the computer science department of Linhai University wisely did not join in. The task of giving questions from Linhai University naturally fell to Chen Mo.

As the saying goes, "It is impolite not to reciprocate." Chen Mo's question was still related to programming. He directly posted a segment of code and asked: "This is a system program for Windows 98. Who can simplify it within five minutes without affecting its actual use will get ten points."

This question was a gift, regardless of the result, some university would get these ten points.

As soon as the question was issued, the people from the four universities started working. However, after a long time, no one could rewrite the program or make it more concise.

It should be noted that the Windows 98 system was written by the world's top programming team. Rewriting the program written by these people is not too difficult, but to make it more concise without affecting its actual use is no easy task.
