The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 426 Pre-class
"Jiang, I heard about what happened when you went to Master Carlo's class. You also know about mecha..." The girl leaned closer to Jiang Hui with some curiosity and asked in a low voice.

Actually, she was a little nervous about saying this. Although the other person had always been very friendly and easy to talk to her classmates, she was too independent and rarely spent time with them.

Even with Clarence, her closest classmate, everyone only saw them occasionally bumping into each other in the cafeteria; they rarely interacted in class, each studying their own thing.

Most of the time he spends on campus is studying or rushing to study. Although many people can't understand why this guy, who should be considered the top student in his grade, is working so hard.

Many classmates admired the top student, but they couldn't find a suitable way to get closer to him, so they always felt a sense of distance. However, they got along quite well.

Man was probably one of the more proactive ones; she had a very good impression of Jiang Hui and was quite interested in her. Although she personally always felt that Jiang Hui was a bit distant, she was more proactive in communicating with her than the others.

She had always been the one to borrow notes from Jiang Huixin, making herself known to him.

However, this was probably the first time she had asked such a profound question, and she was a little nervous after she spoke, worried that her question might upset the other person.

She didn't realize that during their conversation, several classmates nearby had been listening intently, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

As she expected, this classmate Jiang was indeed a good-tempered person. Although she often seemed a bit cold and had a maturity beyond her years, she never seemed to be arrogant, and it was really comfortable to be around her.

Man felt it was a pity that such a good girl didn't like making friends, otherwise she would have liked to try it too.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hui nodded and looked at the other person with an inquiring gaze, wanting to know what she would say next.

"N-nothing, I just heard about that day from a friend in the mecha department... You're really amazing." Man said with admiration, seemingly just there for a casual chat.

She was basically just learning haphazardly, without any guidance. If she had to say, she was just using her course selection card to catch up little by little with the main course teacher's courses, so she always felt that she wasn't even a beginner, at best just a half-baked amateur.

Being praised by such a genuine young person, Jiang Hui didn't feel proud at all. Instead, she felt even more embarrassed: "Actually... it's not really research, I just know a little bit about it."

The other party insisted that Jiang Hui was being too modest, and chattered on and on until her friend came to call her, at which point she reluctantly left.

Jiang Hui glanced at the girl, somewhat puzzled. This girl seemed unusually talkative today. She usually seemed quite reserved whenever she came to borrow notes, as if she were afraid Jiang Hui would devour her. But today she seemed completely uninhibited. Jiang Hui found it strange, but didn't dwell on it.

"You're here early." A familiar voice came from the right.

Jiang Hui turned her head and saw Clarence, who had arrived a little later. Clarence pulled out a chair next to her and sat down.

“Everyone is here very early,” Jiang Hui said, raising an eyebrow.

Because what she said wasn't wrong. Everyone was probably very curious and looking forward to today's warm-up class. As early as two hours before the scheduled class, people had already started arriving early to scout the place. Some had secured a small, good spot, while others had gathered in a circle with acquaintances to discuss things quietly, making the large classroom quite lively.

Jiang Hui woke up earlier than usual today, hoping to get here sooner. She thought she was early enough, but when she got to the door... she was shocked by what she saw.

Wow, so many people!

There were students from Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3. The vast majority of them had friendly faces. They didn't seem to care when someone came in; some continued chatting, others studied, all quite at ease.

Since Jiang Hui entered Beska Intermediate Academy, she had always been at the forefront of academic competition. She never expected that someone would be even more academic than her, which was quite novel. So when she arrived at the classroom this time, she didn't immediately start reading a book and studying. Instead, she adopted a "don't bother me" attitude, which led to Manlai striking up a conversation.

Clarence, however, seemed to arrive later than usual. He's usually quite slow, and today he arrived leisurely only after most of the other classes had already shown up.

"Where's Hillman?" Jiang Hui asked, looking around curiously. He didn't see the guy who was always at the forefront of the discussion—he was more excited than anyone else when they were talking about this the other day, and he thought that Hillman would have come over early today.

"I ran into him in the cafeteria just now. He seemed to be holding something up." Clarence shook his head. Although they had met, the other person was in a corner of the cafeteria, talking to the other end of the personal terminal with a resistant expression. He wisely refrained from joining them and went ahead on his own.

Suddenly, a murmur of discussion erupted in the large classroom, rising abruptly only to be deliberately suppressed in an instant, as if someone was mindful of something.

Jiang Hui and Clarence both looked over as if they sensed something, just as the group entered.

Their old acquaintance.

Alec Horley, along with his inseparable companion Abu Shore, and another vaguely identified leader, Mu Kun, entered almost simultaneously. Many people immediately recognized them, sparking considerable discussion.

These three were practically at the top of the food chain in Class One. Well, actually, two of them were, and the third was more like an afterthought. Their qualifications, talents, and even leadership abilities were unmatched by others; they were like the leaders.

Furthermore, Zou Yi's teaching style differs significantly from Stark's. While Stark is strict, he is absolutely fair and impartial, striving to provide guidance and support to every student. Zou Yi, on the other hand, adopts a more open teaching approach, allowing students to develop independently.

This approach may seem irresponsible, but it's actually the most suitable method for a class full of geniuses. Because their pride could backfire under coercive intervention, leading to a situation where no one obeys and conflicts are more likely to arise.

It's better to let them do whatever they want. Whoever has the bigger fist and the more capable can get more "privileges" in the class; this is an unspoken rule that all the students in the class agree on.

So compared to Class 2, which is still harmonious and full of academic atmosphere, Class 1 is more like a condensed society, closer to reality and more cruel, where everyone has their own place and way of life.
