The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Clearly, he is also a representative of deepening cooperation between the political and military circles. However, his position is not as sensitive as that of the principal or Yan Bai. He is stationed at the Imperial Military Academy as a general instructor, teaching college students some political elective courses and knowledge or conveying some front-line government orders and information.

This Mr. Du is different from Mr. Yan Bai and Mr. Duckworth. He is brooding, taciturn and dignified. He rarely appears on campus except when he is arranging course selection for professors, and he basically does not interfere in school affairs, so he seems to have little presence.

Even the secretly competitive soldiers at the Capital Military Academy assumed he was a mild-mannered gentleman, treating him kindly and never causing him trouble. Unexpectedly, on this particular day, he actually spoke up.

The person who spoke to him was a young colonel from the next department. He seemed to be quite familiar with Mr. Du. However, the slightly personal remarks did not annoy him at all. Instead, he replied seriously, "Yes, I also think the coincidence is too much."

The collapse rate of the unified entrance examination system is roughly 10-15%, and even with an error margin, it's only around 0.05%. The possibility of interfaces overlapping is even smaller. Given the sheer number of candidates in the unified entrance examination, let alone knowing someone familiar, even candidates from the same planet or star cluster would have to put in considerable effort to bump into each other. Yet these individuals managed to reach the end and meet at this particular time; it's hard to say whether it's true fate or just too much coincidence.

Coincidence is just coincidence. There are countless coincidences in the world, so what's so strange about it?

As long as one possesses genuine talent, everything else becomes less important. It's a pity that such talented individuals didn't enter their capital's military academy, but instead, through such a "coincidence," all chose the Imperial United Military Academy. To many at the capital's military academy, this was the biggest surprise of this unified recruitment.

Before this man could say anything more, Mr. Du, understanding his intentions, glanced at him and immediately stopped him. Du Yuan roughly knew what his colleague wanted to say—it was likely a conspiracy theory, a suspicion that some force was setting a trap for the capital's military academy. This was probably a similar thought among many present; they were all military personnel, and their stance and opinions were naturally simpler and more direct.

However, as someone who has weathered many storms in the political arena and knows some common inside stories, Du Yuan believes that this is not a conspiracy. After all, what force could possibly invite such prominent and privileged individuals to stage such a performance? It's likely that even with meticulous planning, things would completely go awry in the end due to disagreements. This situation is most common in factional struggles, and Du Yuan, as a politician, is well aware of it.

Therefore, it is more likely that things developed this way naturally, and it is also a matter of fate for these few people.

But it wouldn't make sense to say it was the work of forces behind them. It was completely useless and of no benefit. What would they do by setting up such a scheme? To lower the reputation of the Capital Military Academy?
This statement might fool some extreme radicals, but it's fundamentally a completely different logic.

Does the Capital Military Academy's failure to attract a few top talents mean it will fall behind other directly affiliated universities? Impossible!

The reason why the Capital Military Academy ranks first is not only because of its resources and heritage, but also because of many more complex factors and origins.

Even a figure as powerful as Marshal Zhou couldn't easily influence the Capital Military Academy to become the top military academy directly under the central government. Otherwise, he might have already promoted it to the top position long ago, instead of waiting until now. Therefore, to say that this was a conspiracy by the Zhou family army to bring down the Capital Military Academy in order to make the top military academy the top one is simply absurd. As he said before, what is a single unified entrance examination? It's just a testing ground for a few students who haven't fully matured. Even if they have extraordinary backgrounds and talents, it will take several decades for them to complete their studies, enlist, and officially influence the battlefield. This period of time isn't entirely static; new talents enter the academy every year, and it doesn't have any real impact.

Furthermore, Zhou Yuanjing would never do such a thing. Regardless of what his political enemies, rivals, and successors think of him, no one has ever questioned his qualifications and existence as the Light of the Empire. His past achievements and character truly deserve this title. If the other side really wanted to support the First Military Academy to rise to power, they would certainly not do it in this way; they would probably do it more directly and forcefully.

However, simply strengthening one's power and resources is far from enough for the top military academy in the direct military system to change its position; a complete reshuffling of power is perhaps necessary. This would involve more than just a military academy ranking; it could trigger deeper internal strife and civil war—an outcome that no political, military, or even ordinary citizen wants to see.

It's even less likely that this was done by other forces. Who would dare to attack his only surviving heir and his friends, bypassing Marshal Zhou? Wouldn't that be suicidal?

All things considered, the truth is obvious: it was all just a coincidence. Perhaps these young, promising talents simply agreed to apply to the same school. It's that simple.

While the Imperial United Military Academy may not be as prestigious as the Capital Military Academy, it boasts a long and distinguished history and enjoys a renowned reputation both within and outside the interstellar space. It's not entirely outrageous that the son of a marshal or a nobleman would apply to this school, though it is somewhat outside the established norms.

As for how the children managed to meet smoothly in such a complex and varied environment, it can generally be attributed to tacit understanding, fate, and hard skills—the inevitability of standing out among millions of candidates. Despite the large number of participants in the unified entrance examination, almost encompassing the entire interstellar year's candidates, over sixty interstellar hours have passed, and how many will actually make a name for themselves in this unified examination? Meeting each other can only be described as a testament to true ability.

The only thing that intrigued Mr. Du was, "You're saying this Clarence family... if little Clarence were to face off against the other side, who would win?"

This is a question that many people present were curious about.

When the two sides clash, will the unconventional trio of Jiang Hui and his companions emerge victorious, or will Clarence, who has been fighting in the Central Region for a long time and is invincible?
A pretty female officer next to them chuckled, "Don't get too carried away with our guessing. What if it doesn't actually turn into a fight?" Everyone knew she was referring to the fight between Jiang Hui and Huan Xian earlier, the development and direction of which had truly surprised everyone.

According to the information, this young Clarence and that dark horse are actually from the same school and class. Isn't that more reasonable than Huan Xian, a seemingly unrelated student in the Department of Conduct, and Jiang Hui knowing each other?
Meanwhile, in different conference rooms, other universities were watching the situation closely and secretly wondering who would win if G and L went to war.
