Start as a top student and move towards the stars and the sea

According to Ning Chen's impression of the system, the system's capabilities are far beyond this era, and solving the Riemann Hypothesis should not be difficult.

Thinking of this, Ning Chen tried asking the system for a few simpler mathematical conjectures, but still didn't get any answers.

It wasn't until Ning Chen found a simple after-school question from a high-mathematics book that the system responded.

[Answering this question requires 1 point of energy. Are you sure you want to redeem it? 】

After seeing the system's reply, Ning Chen quickly canceled his application.

"Such a simple question costs 1 point of energy. Isn't this robbery?"

Ning Chen tried a few more times and found that now he could only get responses from the system by asking some less complex questions.

Moreover, the asking price of the system is also very high. Even the simplest problem requires at least 1 point of energy, and the price/performance ratio is very low.

In contrast, it is obviously a more appropriate choice to use energy points to improve the mental index.

After carefully interpreting the system prompts, Ning Chen also understood the reason why the system did not respond before.

"It seems that my subject level is too low now, and I don't have the authority to ask more complex questions. And even if the subject level is not considered, the energy points are definitely not enough."

Ning Chen estimated that tens of thousands of energy points would be needed to redeem the answer to a mathematical conjecture.

What Ning Chen didn't notice was that when he was immersed in the system interface, the time had already passed ten o'clock.

It wasn't until the librarian returned to Ning Chen's study room again to lock the door that he noticed that there was still one person who had not left.

"Classmate, why haven't you left yet?"

Hearing the librarian's voice, Ning Chen turned his attention away from the system interface.

The librarian is a female, and she seems to be a student at Shengzhou University. Indeed, many of the staff in this position are part-time students.

"Sorry, I lost track of time because I was so involved. I'm leaving now."

Ning Chen didn't want to be locked in the library, so he quickly packed his things and prepared to leave.

"You should be a student preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination. If you want to start your self-study later, you can go to the study room in Yifu Building, where you can study all night."

This was the first time for the administrator to see someone who was studying to the point of losing track of time, and subconsciously judged Ning Chen as a student taking the postgraduate entrance examination.

It's not even half way through the semester. If it weren't for the postgraduate entrance examination, it would be almost impossible to be in such a dedicated study state.

"I'm not a student taking the postgraduate entrance examination. I'm only a freshman now." Ning Chen explained.

Hearing Ning Chen's words, the girl couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

"You're so serious when you're just a freshman? You're not already preparing for graduate school, are you?"

Although Shengzhou University is not the top university in the country, it is one of the top universities in Ning Province, but even so, there are only a handful of students who work so hard in their freshman year.

Naturally, Ning Chen's goal was not just to secure a graduate degree, but in front of a girl he met for the first time, Ning Chen couldn't say much.

"Well, it would be best if you can protect your research."

Ning Chen hurriedly packed his things and left the library quickly without saying too much to the girl.

Seeing Ning Chen return to the dormitory, Chen Tianpeng said:

"Brother Chen, did you see what was posted in the group?"

Ning Chen kept his phone on silent mode. While studying, Ning Chen would definitely not pay attention to what was going on in the QQ group.

"No, what's wrong?"

"The results of the high-level math quiz two days ago came out. Brother Chen got perfect marks. Our three material classes combined together only got three perfect marks."

Ning Chen opened the QQ group, took a look at the content in the group, and confirmed Chen Tianpeng's words.

Speaking of which, Ning Chen was a little surprised that such a simple question only had three perfect scores.

However, recalling the situation in the last life, Ning Chen missed the first quiz and didn't even get 1 point. From this point of view, it is not surprising that everyone got such a score.

"It's probably because many people haven't started studying seriously yet. In fact, as long as you study a little bit, it's not difficult to get a perfect score."

"Okay, it's not too difficult for you, right? I think a few of them are quite serious in class. Didn't they get full marks on the test?"

"Yes, what's more, Brother Chen, you are the first to hand in the paper. No matter how much you compare to others, you can't compare to you." Yang Yan also said.

Having said that, Yang Yan didn't really think that Ning Chen was much smarter than him. It was just that Ning Chen had been studying too hard recently, which was why he achieved such results.

"By the way, Ning Chen, we also want to go to the library with you in the future. Is it convenient for you?"

Naturally, Ning Chen prefers to go to the library alone, so that he can save a lot of unnecessary trouble.

However, Ning Chen couldn't refuse directly, so he said politely:

"I woke up too early on the weekend, can you really get up?"

"It must be possible. Brother Chen, you don't have to worry. Just follow your own pace. We just regard you as a role model and motivation, and it will definitely not affect you."

"Yes, we don't want to fall into this situation anymore. We all threw away our 21st Century membership cards just now. We will definitely not go to the Internet cafe again this semester."

Seeing them say this, Ning Chen also felt that this was an insignificant matter.

His three roommates are all good-natured people. If he can promote the learning atmosphere in dormitory 208 in this way, Ning Chen thinks this is also a good thing.

"Okay, that's settled."

After washing, Ning Chen lay on the bed and thought about his next study plan.

These days, Ning Chen has basically mastered "Advanced Mathematics (Part 1)" and has done several sets of simulation papers with perfect scores. There is no need to spend more time on this book.

"I'll go to the library tomorrow and borrow "Advanced Mathematics (Part 2)" first. I just don't know what textbooks I need to study if I want to continue to improve my level of mathematics."

Ning Chen knew that according to the system's evaluation criteria for subject level, even if Ning Chen thoroughly understood "Advanced Mathematics (Part 2)", he might not be able to upgrade mathematics to Lv1.

After all, studying the entire "Advanced Mathematics (Part 1)" only allowed Ning Chen to gain 6 points of subject experience.

"Perhaps according to the system's evaluation standards, only after completing all undergraduate major courses in the Department of Mathematics can one be considered to have reached level one in mathematics. This system's evaluation of subject level is really strict."

Thinking of this, Ning Chen decided to wait until the next advanced mathematics class to ask He Sheng about the professional courses in the mathematics department, so that he could have a more in-depth study of mathematics in a targeted manner.

…

"You should have seen the results of the last small test. To be honest, the results are relatively poor overall. As students of Shengzhou University, you should not only take such scores. This test is not final. Purpose, I hope everyone will still pay attention to studying at the university level."
