He is still a student, yet he is this incredible? Taylor continued, "You saw Mia earlier—her family has been top-tier lawyers in Evergrand City for generations. You could say her family practically watches over the entire Governance University. On top of that, she has an exceptional talent for law. She even gets to participate in research projects with Hugo!" Arthur was beyond shocked. Each one of them was ridiculously impressive! Suddenly, he asked, "Now that I think about it, doesn’t that make me completely useless?" Arthur had originally been quite confident. After all, he understood that having Hugo personally accept him as a student was an incredible honor. But compared to his senior classmates, he really did seem like he had nothing to offer! Taylor immediately disagreed. "Who said that? You built Cloudia Corporation from the ground up at such a young age and turned it into a huge success! That’s your greatest achievement! And the fact that Mr. Hugo personally chose you as his student proves that you have qualities worth noticing. He wouldn’t have taken you in otherwise!" "But... this is Governance University. I founded Cloudia Corporation, but that’s just business," Arthur muttered. "Oh, come on. I already told you—Mr. Hugo is a jack-of-all-trades! Politics, law, and economics are all interconnected. Your business success will definitely help with your studies too." Arthur fell silent. Well... that was somewhat reassuring. It looked like he had to work even harder moving forward! Arthur then asked his final question. "Since Mr. Hugo teaches us all subjects, does that mean we still have to attend regular classes?" At that, Taylor's grin widened. "Nope! We don’t have to sit through those boring and useless lectures. Mr. Hugo doesn’t have much time to spend at the university, so whenever he comes, he just gives us a lecture, assigns us tasks or homework, and leaves." Then, Taylor leaned in close again, lowering his voice mysteriously. "And another reason we have private dorms, aside from avoiding disturbances, is..." Arthur listened intently. Having an entire house for a dorm was an extreme luxury—there had to be another major reason behind it.Taylor smirked mischievously. "The most important reason is that we get to sleep in!" Arthur blinked, stunned, "Sleep in?" Weren’t geniuses supposed to work harder than anyone else, staying up late and waking up early? Why is he talking about sleeping in? Taylor saw right through Arthur’s thoughts. "Pfft, you thought we were all grinding away with no rest?" Arthur nodded honestly. Taylor wagged his finger. "Do you know what makes a genius? They don’t need to exhaust themselves. They can be top students without breaking a sweat! Sage and Mia sleep in every day. They usually don’t wake up until noon. The only time they wake up early is when Mr. Hugo is around." Arthur was once again floored. Is this what it means to be a true genius? Suddenly, he felt a heavy pressure settle on his shoulders. Every single one of them was ridiculously talented. Compared to them, he was nothing! Taylor continued, "But I wake up early." Arthur’s eyes lit up! Finally, someone he could relate to! Finally, someone who had to work hard to reach their level! But before Arthur could fully embrace that thought, Taylor’s next words shattered him all over again. Taylor licked his lips and said, "Because the cafeteria’s breakfast is amazing! As a dedicated foodie, how could I ever give up delicious food just to sleep in?" Arthur went quiet. Alright, he had definitely expected too much. Every single one of them was a menace. Just as they were talking, a sudden voice cut through Arthur’s thoughts. "Well, well, if it isn’t useless Taylor?" The tone was infuriatingly smug, and Arthur immediately felt an itch in his fists. The moment Taylor heard the voice, his smile vanished. "Ugh, bad luck," he muttered, clicking his tongue as he grabbed Arthur’s arm, ready to leave. But the newcomers blocked their way.Four guys stood in front of Arthur. Each of them wore smug, unfriendly grins. The leader looked at Arthur and sneered, "Oh? So this is your new little junior, Arthur?" Taylor instantly stepped in front of Arthur, shielding him. "Kent, picking on a freshman? What kind of low move is that? If you want to pick a fight, take it up with me!" "Hah?" The guy named Kent let out a mocking laugh, as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the world. "Take it up with you? A loser like you? You think you’re even worth our time?"
