On the other side of The Challenge Wall...

A crowd gathered within the lobby at the appearance of Feng Li. The question he was solving had been the hot topic for several weeks now because no one could answer it – not even the professors at the university.

The person who wrote the challenge was sitting at the table right next the wall. Beautiful white blonde hair that was longer in the front, shorter in the back – eyes so blue that they're violet – tall, well built, and magnetic, Eli Frye sat casually in the lounge chair. Sitting at the same table was his closest 3 friends – all charming and gorgeous. The 4 young men sitting together were like 4 princes instead of students. It had been so intimidating that no one dared to be within 50 feet of their table. Everyone could only admire from afar.

Ben Carter was a 4th year student at Yale, majoring it Law. He had been Eli's link to Yale University and the reason why he was currently there. The four young men had been planning for years to start up their company "AION" and had been recruiting talented people. Ben had told his friends about the infamous math genius Feng Li. Eli Frye had wrote the question in order to attract and test the math genius. While they had expected Feng Li to be the one to solve problem, no one expected the mysterious girl to suddenly appear.

Wavy brown hair with natural streak of gold and silver looked so soft and fluffy as it barely touched her shoulders. Pink pouty lips with those deep set of dimples on her pretty cheeks as she smiles. She looked like she was having fun as she countered the cryptic answer. But what had everyone captivated were her large eyes with such a stunning clear blue-green color. Sharp, deep eyes which held depth – more than what a young 18 years old girl should have. The girl had been more than just beautiful - she was enchanting.

Eli Frye has come across many beautiful women all his life – so it was rare for anyone to capture his attention. It was even rarer for his cold heart to be move. And yet, his eyes had lifted from his cup of coffee and were captivated first by her hand, then her dimple smiles, and finally to her sparkling color eyes. He hadn't even noticed that his heart had stopped moving when her light colored eyes passed his. She had been focusing on her writing to notice that many were watching her. The lobby that had been filled with noises moments ago was in complete silence as everyone watched her writes out "AION" under Feng Li's numeric answer.

"Who was that?" Mason Banks - a 4th year Harvard student with Eli, was the one to broke the silence after seeing the beauty rushed off.

Ben Carter turned to face his friends. For a moment, he had been surprise to see Eli attention off in the distance – the same direction where the girl had disappeared to. Seeing his stoic and cold friend actually taking interest in someone, Ben chuckled.

"That was the campus princess" Ben grinned. "I don't know her name – not many do. All I know is she's a 1st year language arts student majoring in linguistic"

Everyone knew that linguistic was one of the most difficult major to have - therefore, only a rare few ever go for the degree. At Yale, it's even rarer for a female student to be in the small linguistic department. The girl appearances had made her stands out on her first day in campus. Everyone knew her extraordinary black bulletproof Mercedes and the more impressive reserved parking spots where average students could never afford. In fact, many of the professors couldn't afford such luxury. They could tell she was from a wealthy family but no one knows which. Their initial thought was that she had been just another rich spoil girl who got in through connections – only to get herself a Mrs. Degree at an Ivy League school.

But their thoughts quickly change when they learn which department she was in. There are only 20 students in linguistic and 19 were males. What's interesting is that the linguistic major students are all refusing to let anyone outside their department know the mysterious beauty name. Instead, they refer to her as their princess. Clearly, they wanted to monopolizing the intelligent beauty to themselves. It had annoyed other male students to no end. All a while, the girl rarely appears in campus, and when she does, she appears oblivious to her surroundings.

"I guess she isn't just looks after all" Ben chuckled softly.

  The answer was clearly written out for anyone to see.
