She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew) novel Chapter 189

Chapter 189
The entire auditorium was in an uproar. Even Joy looked at Athena in surprise at her answer.
After a few seconds, the host asked in disbelief, “Did you… compose it alone?”
Athena was not offended by this seemingly less polite question. She smiled and answered, “Yes.”
There was a short silence. The host eventually gave Athena a thumbs up. “That’s very impressive.”
No matter what, the audience was students from a famous university. Even if they had never learned the piano, they still had basic aesthetic standards. They could tell how good “Song from Eleavens” was.
Someone remarked, “Oh my god. She wrote such an imposing, imaginative, and philosophical piece? How talented, professional, and imaginative must she be?”
Another said, “This original composition is better than the works of countless professional music composers. It’s amazing! Why would such a talent go to aerospace instead of learning music?”
A girl commented. Tm seriously amazed. It’s been many years since I’ve heard such a great original piano piece.”
A professor from the music major also looked impressed. “Joy’s skills are better, but Athena played an original work. It’s even
rarer.”
All the judges nodded in agreement with his evaluation. Then, they whispered to each other and discussed how to evaluate Joy and Athena.
The host was also very smart. Realizing it was very difficult for the judges to make a decision immediately, she asked, “Joy, Athena, why did you choose your respective majors when you came to Kitmore University? What are your dreams?”
Joy said. “Although I grew up overseas, my mother was born in Osceiton. I was influenced by her and love and yearn for the history and culture of my country.
“Kitmore University’s history department is the best major in the country. I especially admire the archaeologist, Mr. Franco Xander. I hope to work hard so I can become his student and fallow him everywhere to learn more about Osceiton’s most mysterious and ancient culture with my own eyes”
“Well said!” There was enthusiastic applause from below the stage as everyone praised, “Although she was born and raised overseas, as well as studied there, she did not forget her homeland. It’s remarkable she still acknowledges herself as someone from Oscriton.”
When the applause ended, someone asked, “Who is Mr. Xander? Is he very famous? Why haven’t we heard of him?”
Immediately, a history student replied, “Mr. Xander is the leading figure in archaeology. His identity is unknown, but he’s very likely the only human on this planet who can decipher prehistoric civilization and prehistoric codes.
Another explained, “He’s also the most mysterious archaeologist who ever existed. He rarely shows up. He would appear occasionally on the Internet but would cover himself up so tightly that even his face couldn’t be seen. I don’t know if I’ll be able to see him in person before I graduate.”
Someone else added, “He’s an honorary professor in our faculty, and also bur idol. However, he rarely comes to school. If you want to see him, it’s like playing a lottery. It depends on your luck.”
When the others heard this, they clicked their tongues. “Looks like there are hidden experts in your faculty.”
The history major students were very proud. “Of course. Otherwise, why would the goddess take a fancy to our department?
Chapter 189
On stage, the host was already asking Athena, “Athena, what about you?”
Everyone lowered their voices and pricked their ears, afraid to miss a word.
Athena smiled and said seriously. “I want to build a spaceship that can fly out of the solar system, pass through wormholes, and undergo interstellar travel”
Everyone was shocked. The entire auditorium fell silent. They stared at Athena, dumbfounded, wondering if she was joking.
But Athena was serious. Although her smile was faint, her eyes shone with enthusiasm and yearning for her goal as well as confidence.
For a moment, almost everyone wondered if Athena was a genius or a lunatic.
Joy looked at Athena in surprise again, her gaze scrutinizing.
On the right side of the third row on the first floor of the auditorium. Louis adjusted his glasses and said with mixed feelings. “What great
ambition. I don’t even dare to comment on it.”
Matthew had been staring at Athena. His eyes were also filled with amazement. Hearing Louis’ words, he lowered his eyes slightly and smiled. “That’s right. Even I can never imagine that. He paused before continuing. “If it were anyone else, I would think they were dreaming. But when it comes from Miss Donovan, it feels like nothing is impossible.”
Lous turned his head and looked at his boss in horror. He thought, ‘Mr. Graham is more or less crazy, but isn’t this going 100 far?
Similarly. Louis did not dare to comment on Matthew’s statement.
On the stage, the host was stunned for several seconds before he reacted and revealed an unnatural smile. “That is indeed a very amazing dream. No wonder you chose the Aerospace major
“It’s not a dream,” Athena explained seriously, “It’s a goal.”
The host, as well as all the teachers and students, fell into stunned silence. Only the students from the Aerospace major were cheering and clapping
Jan also applauded. He looked at Athena with respect. “As expected of a goddess. She wants to fly into the sky.”
The host soon ended this scary interview. She looked below the stage and announced loudly, “Ladies and gentlemen, the judges’ results are out. I’ll announce the winners now.”
The venue regained its clamor and focused on the results.
As expected, both Joy and Athena won first prize. This was the first time two first prizes were awarded.
Joy and Athena did not seem dissatisfied with each other’s award. They took the award certificates and prize money together and smiled at the camera like ordinary and peaceful classmates
Louis suddenly discovered something. His lenses flashed as his eyes flickered. “Mr. Graham, take a closer look. Does that Joy look similar to Miss Donovan? He paused for a moment and observed carefully. “They are almost identical in height and size. Their facial features are also quite similar.
Joy was wearing a monocle and exquisite makeup. She also had bangs and shoulder-length curly hair, so her facial features.

were not completely revealed. If one did not look carefully, it would be difficult to notice that her facial features were somewhat similar to Athena’s
Matthew’s gaze swept past Joy indifferently. “A little, but she’s not as beautiful as Miss Donovan.”
Louis secretly rolled his eyes.
On stage. Joy and Athena reacted very calmly to the awards they received. They thanked the judges and left the stage. One walked to the left while the other headed to the right.
Athena received a large bouquet of roses as soon as she arrived backstage.
Although there were many flowers backstage, a small portion was decorations. Most were gifts from others, and a huge proportion were roses. Athena received a bouquet of very rare, extremely beautiful, and elegant light green roses. It instantly attracted everyone’s envy and exclamation.
The girl in charge of delivering the flowers said nervously, “M-Miss Donovan, right? These are from Mr. Graham. He said your performance was wonderful and he will never forget it.”
