Chapter 814: An Important Professor

Huo Yao flipped through the academic journal. The dissertations published in the journal were highly feasible. As for Prof Rong’s paper, it was very well written. From the looks of it, he genuinely became a department fellow through real talent.

Huo Yao was exposed to a lot of books, but she had had little contact with research apparatus, so she was very interested in the papers published in the academic journal.

After Wu Yue was done putting away the documents, he turned around and raised his head to see Huo Yao reading PRL. He paused for half a minute standing where he was before he went over to the water dispenser to pour himself a cup of water. He walked over and sat down on the couch.

Wu Yue did not interrupt Huo Yao and simply sat quietly with a glass of water.

Before long, Huo Yao closed the academic journal.

Wu Yue finally raised his head in surprise and looked at Huo Yao. “Are you done already?”

Huo Yao nodded. She put the academic journal where it belonged and said, “It was good.”

Wu Yue rubbed his glass with a complicated expression on his face.

He must have worked for barely 30 minutes.

The academic journal contained eight Physics papers and it was entirely in English, so even a teacher like him had trouble reading it. He was not confident of understanding its contents completely even if he spent an entire day reading it, let alone after browsing through it for just 30 minutes.

Wu Yue knew that Huo Yao was the top Arts scholar, but the academic journal was written entirely in English and contained a lot of professional Physics terminology. Was she really able to understand everything?

Wu Yue contemplated for two seconds before he asked subtly. “What do you think about Prof Rong’s paper?”

Huo Yao pondered before she answered. “Condensed Matter Physics is a very broad subject. Prof Rong is very experienced in Mesoscopic Physics and Cluster Physics. Since he has successfully combined Chemistry, Physics, and Biology, he has made a great contribution to their development as interdisciplinary subjects.”

Wu Yue was blown away by what he just heard. He seemed to understand why Prof Rong made an exception to accept someone from the Arts division. This student was probably as good at Physics as a Science student.

Papers only got published in the academic journal after these theories were repeatedly tested. Since she was able to have such insight about them, she had undoubtedly grasped the essence of these papers.

Wu Yue felt really excited. He put down the glass in his hand and stood up. He picked up the journal, flipped through it until he reached two other papers written by foreigners, and asked her for her opinion.

Huo Yao told him what she felt about those papers.

After Wu Yue was done listening to what she said, he was absolutely astonished. He lowered his head and looked at the academic journal in his hand. Even though she was not well-versed with the Physics terminology, she was able to grasp the core of each paper.

She had extraordinary learning ability!

With the right grooming, the sky was the limit for her.

Wu Yue felt excited. It was the first time he had ever encountered someone as talented as Huo Yao in his entire career. He asked curiously. “Why were you in the Arts division?”

Huo Yao did not expect this question from him. She contemplated before she answered humbly. “Arts is a profound field and I like challenges.”

Wu Yue was dumbfounded when he heard this.

What kind of daft logic was this?

Were History, Geography, and Politics more profound than Biology and Physics?
