Yi Lianfan’s lips twitched but he maintained his nonchalant attitude. As his eyes landed on the piece of paper, his indifferent appearance altered swiftly.
The question that he had given her was from last year’s International Physics Olympiad. The question was incredibly difficult and only one student was able to solve it.
Shockingly, the steps written on Huo Yao’s paper were much simpler than that of the student who answered it last year and was deemed a genius. Also, the way she solved it was a completely different method.
Even though Yi Lianfan had tried various ways, he could not believe that the question could be solved in this manner. If this solution got posted online, countless elite students would feel sorry for themselves.
Some of the students came over when they spotted the previous top student looking for the newly crowned top student. Everyone wanted to see what was written on the paper.
The entire class was startled to see that it was an incomprehensible physics equation. Everyone in the class was dumbfounded and a bit disappointed.
It certainly was not a love letter. It was completely beyond them how the minds of both these geniuses worked.
Yi Lianfan looked at Huo Yao with a complicated expression on his face. However, she did not bother giving him a glance. Instead, she took out an English textbook indifferently and started to read it.
Yi Lianfan’s lips parted but it took him a while to ask her the question which was on his mind. “Why are you in an arts class when you are so good in science subjects?”
Huo Yao replied airily without even looking up. “It doesn’t matter what class I’m in.”
Yi Lianfan was nonplussed. “…”
He was the only person who used to speak so arrogantly in the past. Now that he heard it from someone else, he felt like whacking Huo Yao.
He left the Experimental Class shortly after.
“Did the God of Study, Yi Lianfan, mean that Huo Yao’s level of knowledge is superlative? Did I get it right?”
“There’s no argument. It’s a fact.”
“Wow. I have a whole new level of respect for Huo Yao today.”
…
Yi Lianfan was on his way back to the Rocket Class when he suddenly halted. After a moment, he changed his path and headed to the physics teacher’s office.
The physics teacher was preparing for class and was surprised to see Yi Lianfan.
Yi Lianfan placed the piece of paper with the solution on the teacher’s table. “Sir, take a look at this.”
The physics teacher picked up the paper. The moment he saw the question, he subconsciously said, “Isn’t this the hardest question from last year’s Physics Olympiad that almost all students failed to crack?”
“Yes, it is.”
The physics teacher studied the solution carefully. Soon, a look of shock emerged on his face. He raised his head after reading it and said excitedly, “Did you come up with this solution?”
Yi Lianfan shook his head. “It wasn’t me.”
After an imperceptible pause, he said, “It was solved by Huo Yao from the Experimental Class.”
The physics teacher’s hands trembled. “Is Huo Yao the one who stood first in the entire level during the monthly exams?”
“Yes, she’s the one.” A look of admiration surfaced on Yi Lianfan’s face subconsciously.
“I couldn’t solve it after working on it for a week. All she spent was one night.”
The physics teacher’s eyes suddenly opened wide in disbelief. “One night?”
This question was so hard that even a physics teacher like him, who had spent years researching the subject, would need a day or two to solve it. But Huo Yao did it in a single night…
The physics teacher’s mind went into an overdrive. He did not know what to say.
