The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 148 Competition
Call Lao Ye!
Jiang Hui was so angry she almost blurted out in her dialect. What kind of person was this? Couldn't she just avoid them? Instead of doing her own thing, she had to mess things up for others. Did she owe this person money or something...?

Since being reborn into this world, Jiang Hui's self-focused nature has become even stronger.

As time went by, the outline of this world became clearer in her consciousness, and she gradually integrated into this world. Unconsciously, Jiang Hui's personality underwent some changes that she herself might not have noticed.

She is becoming increasingly assertive and often cannot tolerate others interrupting or interfering with her in completing her original plans.

She had noticed the strange look the man had given her since earlier, but she hadn't paid it much attention, or rather, she simply didn't want to. No amount of stares or discussion could compare to the shooting practice she was currently engaged in.

She wasn't a good-tempered person, but in order to save more time and energy to focus on her own things, she always tried her best to suppress her temper. As a result, there were still people who would relentlessly attack her, and no matter how hot-blooded the other person's youthful spirit was, Jiang Hui couldn't swallow her anger.

Since you like to fight so much, let's have a fight and let her see what kind of skills this person has that makes him so arrogant.

Hopefully, I won't disappoint her too much.

As Nie Erqi gave the next command, Jiang Hui fired a shot as usual, expressionless. In this round, the roles were completely reversed; the prey became the hunter in the shadows, while the hunter unknowingly became the prey.

This is the first time she's done this, so it might not work, but it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

Just as she was about to pull the trigger, the gun barrel moved slightly, but that slight movement adjusted the entire design path—this time she was actually aiming at another marker.

If Jiang Hui's calculations are correct, she'll definitely hit the target this time. If all goes well, she might even be able to exchange pleasantries with someone.

As Jiang Hui watched the tiny pigment bullet land precisely on the target marker at the expected angle and direction, she couldn't contain her excitement.

On the other side, Nie Erqi was somewhat surprised that such a move could be made. He had misjudged the person; he had previously thought that this kid in his class was stubborn and unyielding, but he didn't expect his counterattack to be so quick and decisive.

However, completing such a series of changes in an instant requires extremely subtle and precise operations. After all, Jiang Hui's prerequisite was to hit the marker, and secondly, to shoot down He Si's pigment bullet... and all of these had to be completed at the moment the trigger was pulled, which was undeniably demanding.

The fact that Jiang Hui could complete such a quick, impromptu maneuver demonstrates his talent. Even a seasoned marksman like Nie Erqi couldn't help but be somewhat impressed. This is getting more and more interesting.

This series of actions was somewhat impulsive, and Jiang Hui's focus on practicing was quickly distracted. She even glanced at the initial instigator... wanting to see what kind of expression that person had on their face.

What kind of expression did He Si have? He wasn't angry or annoyed at Jiang Hui's deliberate action of shooting down his plastic bullet; on the contrary, he seemed somewhat...excited?
Jiang Hui: ...

What's wrong with her? She vaguely regretted "responding" to the other person. It wasn't that she was afraid, but she felt like she had gotten herself into a very troublesome situation.

It turned out that the other party was determined to go against her.

Turning away from his opponent's gaze, Jiang Hui returned to the next round of shooting with a blank expression.

This time, however, the two of them entered into an extremely subtle "guess what I'm guessing" mode. Seeing that Jiang Hui had discovered his trick, the guy became even more blatant in blocking her shooting path. While Jiang Hui wanted to hit her designated marker in every round, he intended to make every single one of her pigment bullets miss.

This guy is pretty arrogant.

Jiang Hui was able to patiently play along with him for the first two shots, subtly concealing her actions. But she lost patience and turned just before firing.

Thus, a strange phenomenon occurred on site. Two guys with "somewhat different styles" appeared in the line of fire where everyone was originally crouching and shooting neatly.

They weren't really that outrageous, but they would always make a few more "exaggerated little moves" than others when Nie Erqi gave the order. For example, they would suddenly turn their guns and shoot at the farthest marker, which was more than ten meters away from them, or they would suddenly aim in the opposite direction that was not convenient for them, and they would always hit a marker accurately.

The two seemed to have anticipated each other's moves, their actions almost diametrically opposed. Over time, it became clear to everyone that they were clearly working against each other, subtly competing with one another.

Their tense atmosphere did disturb the students on the same line, attracting the attention of many and causing some to watch openly or covertly.

Later on, some people even forgot about their own shooting gear, focusing only on watching the two men's silent battle.

Of course, not only them, but even the two instructors in charge of teaching were somewhat mesmerized. It wasn't for any other reason than that these two were simply too skilled; they had considered stopping them, but the two guys were getting more and more into it, making it difficult for them to abruptly interrupt.

Nie Erqi was actually also curious to see the results, so he turned a blind eye to the group of freshmen who were just trying to get by.

Fine, we can always do more practice later. Of course, these two culprits can't escape punishment; they need to be properly "disciplined" and given a taste of what it means to obey orders.

The shooting has now reached the eighth round, and the results are surprisingly evenly split. Apart from the first and second rounds, He Si successfully intercepted two more rounds. That is to say, he intercepted Jiang Hui's pigment bullets four times. Jiang Hui dodged them all four times and successfully hit the marker each time.

Although the result seemed to be a draw, Nie Erqi knew that Jiang Hui had subtly gained the upper hand. After all, the first two rounds were completely devoid of sportsmanship and were conducted without Jiang Hui's knowledge. She had suffered a hidden loss in two consecutive rounds.

Jiang Hui was the one who was completely unaware and inexplicably interfered with.

But the more this happened, the more unwilling He Si became, and a surge of anger welled up inside him. It was precisely because Jiang Hui didn't care about this matter or He Si himself that this "duel" had barely taken place, and yet this was the only result.

He could only do so much in the area he had always prided himself on, and suddenly realized that he really was nothing special.

At this moment, no amount of regret or shame would be of any use. Let He Si be a true villain, his obsession had reached this point, he just wanted to use these eyes to confirm... to confirm a conclusion that even he himself might not be able to explain.

There's another update coming later. It's still not fixed; it's stuck. I spent all night fixing it, but it still feels weird.
