The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 66 Intimate
Jiang Hui called the teacher in the academic affairs office before the start of the semester to explain her situation.

Unfortunately, she still couldn't change her major directly because, although the teacher sympathized with her situation, she simply didn't qualify. However, the teacher in the academic affairs office was very kind and told Jiang Hui that she had reported the situation on her behalf and asked what the school's opinion was.

Then a few days ago, Jiang Hui received a computer communication from that teacher in the academic affairs office, saying that the school already knew about her situation, and then arranged a meeting for Jiang Hui with the principal.

This made Jiang Hui feel somewhat flattered. She was just an ordinary student who, having missed the opportunity to change her major, wanted to inquire with the school if they could make an exception and give her a chance to transfer out of the military-related major. After all, she was well aware that she was essentially occupying a rare degree in the combat individual soldier department.

However, the school responded, and she even managed to meet with the principal, which meant there was room for discussion. So, Jiang Hui still held onto a sliver of hope.

When she arrived at the academic affairs office, the teacher led her to the principal's office to see the principal, but the final result was still not what Jiang Hui wanted.

The principal was a young man with a refined appearance and temperament. His surname was Xia, and he had a Chinese-Korean appearance, but it seemed that he had mixed in other bloodlines. However, this integration was so good that it gave him an unusual sense of warmth.

The other party seemed to have been waiting for her. Jiang Hui realized that she had been led to the academy principal on her very first day. Although there was a reason for it, the feeling was still quite subtle.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, this is likely her first and only one-on-one meeting with the principal at this school.

Jiang Hui wasn't quite sure how to properly greet the principal in the interstellar world, but a polite greeting was the right thing to do.

"Jiang, you've arrived... Please sit down, don't be so formal." Fortunately, the principal didn't seem to be a very serious person; his tone and attitude were very easygoing and approachable.

"Teacher Duan has already explained your purpose to me, and I also feel very sorry about what happened to you," Principal Xia said to the girl in front of him.

Jiang Hui remembered that the teacher from the academic affairs office who received her was surnamed Duan.

"The school and we teachers understand your demands, but—"

Upon hearing this transition word, Jiang Huixin felt a chill run down her spine. She no longer needed to listen; the other party's meaning was clearly a rejection.

But she really couldn't understand why the school would still refuse. Didn't they think she was wasting her degree in the Combat Individual Soldier Department? Even if she forced herself to study in this major for a year, she would only be wasting their degree in vain. Jiang Hui was very self-aware.

"Hasn't you considered this path, Jiang?" the older man asked softly, his hands slightly clasped together, though his gestures were rather conservative, perhaps out of consideration for her feelings.

The original owner of this body studied military arts at the elementary academy, but she herself seemed to feel that the major was not suitable for her. She thought that she would wait until after her second awakening to see what major would be more suitable, but she did not expect that the second awakening would cause problems.

Jiang Hui is now thinking of going far away, wanting to live a peaceful life, and choosing to study an ordinary major. But she didn't expect even this to be so difficult.

"As Teacher Duan told you before, the application channel for changing majors is currently closed, and it's generally impossible to force it open without special circumstances. If you can't change your major through the system, you won't be able to participate in any exams or courses, and you won't be able to accumulate credits. So, in this situation, we still suggest that you stay in the Combat Individual Department for a year." "I've already reviewed your file. You've only just awakened for the second time, but your mental strength assessment level is already A-level. Your parents are also excellent soldiers of the Empire. I think you might be able to try a major that requires high mental strength first."

"If you really can't adapt after a year, you can change your major when the transfer channel opens next academic year. We will convert your credits based on your courses in the Combat Individual Department, and you will be able to graduate on time."

The other person's words were gentle, without any hint of excessive instruction; on the contrary, they seemed more like sincere advice. Although her parents were mentioned, she wasn't the original owner of this body, nor was she particularly sensitive, so Jiang Hui could accept this level of inquiry and advice.

But this result didn't really make Jiang Hui happy. It meant that no matter what, she would have to study in the Combat Individual Soldier Department for another year, unless she applied for a leave of absence now and changed her major next year.

So all her previous hopes were just that, nothing changed. But after this trip, Jiang Hui finally gave up completely.

Indeed, rules are rules, and it's normal for things to be like this in interstellar space, which is much more transparent than Earth.

Fine, so be it. It was destined for her to go through this.

Just as Jiang Hui had finished thinking, Principal Xia, seeing her silence, assumed she was hesitating and said, "If Jiang is worried that she may not have a foundation before and therefore may not be able to keep up at first, the school has also considered this. We will tell your teacher about your situation and then reduce your requirements by half until you can adapt."

"However, if you want to continue studying in the combat individual soldier department a year from now, you must meet the department's requirements. You can't halve the requirements like this anymore," the principal told Jiang Hui.

Because this is also a possibility. The school agreed to halve Jiang Hui's requirements because she genuinely lacked the foundation, and the reason she missed the opportunity to change majors was unavoidable. Furthermore, Jiang Hui was not certain that she could enroll in such a major.

However, if she later changes her mind, studying in the combat individual training program is her right, since she came through the military dependents' quota. But continuing to halve the requirements for her would be unfair to the other students.

All of this needs to be explained to Jiang Hui in advance, otherwise, it could cause a huge mess.

Jiang Hui has now accepted the reality that she must temporarily study in the Combat Individual Soldier Department, and naturally understands it. She also feels that the school and the principal's arrangements are very considerate and thorough... excessively thorough. She has no complaints anymore.

There was nothing more to say at the moment. Jiang Hui thought it was time to end, and if she delayed any longer, she wouldn't even be able to choose a dormitory properly. So she took her leave of the principal.

Before she left, the other person called her back and took out a small, square metal box from the cabinet. Jiang Hui had sharp eyes and immediately noticed that her name seemed to be marked on the side of the box.

Principal Xia didn't keep her in suspense and handed the box to Jiang Hui.

Jiang Hui noticed that this thing was incredibly light when she held it, lacking any of the weight characteristic of metal. This is—
