After cursing his father for a full ten minutes, Master Chen accepted his fate.
Whether it’s a blessing or a curse, it can’t be avoided.
He couldn’t just go confess to the child’s mother that taking the true college entrance exam was making things hard for him and forcing her to lower the already announced standards.
Not to mention the loss of face he would face and the additional competitors it would bring, not to mention how he couldn’t explain why a high school diploma was sufficient in the past, but now it’s not enough at all.
Harrison Clark comforted himself that reading more books wouldn’t hurt, and he would have to learn sooner or later anyway.
He decided to pick himself up, slowly open the detailed explanation of the science knowledge learning plan, and take a look at his personal record to see how his predecessor managed to graduate from high school.
Five minutes later.
He rubbed his eyes, which stung a bit.
Who’s cutting onions?
In the previous timeline, it took an average of forty years for ordinary people to read up to a bachelor’s degree and twenty years to graduate from high school.
This time, the average time it takes to graduate with a bachelor’s degree is fifty-five years, and the average time it takes to graduate high school is thirty years.
His predecessor had lived up to his 36% potential for high awakening. As a teenager, he was barely considered a child prodigy.
He graduated from elementary school at the age of eight and from junior high school at the age of fourteen.
At the age of twenty-three, which was last year, he successfully passed the college entrance exam, obtained a high school diploma, and chose to join the military between attending college and enlisting.
His predecessor took a total of twenty-two years to graduate from high school, which was eight years shorter than the average time, and his high school stage took only seven years, showing excellent intelligence.
Harrison Clark felt he shouldn’t be any worse.
He decided to test the waters by doing a test set and completing a selfassessment of his knowledge.
After six hours, the assessment was completed.
Harrison Clark looked at the line of text in the projection and fell into deep thought.
“Sergeant Harrison Clark, your personal knowledge level assessment has been completed. It is tentatively determined that your current cultural level is equivalent to the first semester of the first year of junior high school. Special reminder: Your cultural level has declined significantly in the past year. Even if a Galaxy Warrior is not a command-type position, you should possess basic common sense. We recommend that you strengthen your learning a little bit more. It’s really embarrassing.”
Harrison Clark: “I admit defeat.”
The situation was painfully difficult.
Although Master Chen’s current situation wasn’t bad enough to slide back into kindergarten, he was, in fact, only as good as a student who had just entered junior high school.
He had only thirty-four days left until the real college entrance exam.
That meant he would have to learn the fifteen years’ worth of knowledge in just thirty-four days.
Harrison Clark began to feel a throbbing in his temples.
I…
Do you want me to die!
What can he possibly do?
He could handle battles, no doubt about that.
He wouldn’t have much of a problem in the command aspect either.
As long as he knew the performance of various warship equipment, he would be fine.
After all, he had once been a civilized leader, had played chess with the child’s mother for a long time, and was once a distinguished personal safety officer who was always by her side.
He had personally led a special forces squad of more than two million people in suicide missions. He wasn’t exactly a rookie, and his command abilities should be good enough to pass.
His intelligence quotient potential was also fine. After all, his awakening rate was there, and his performance of his predecessor wasn’t bad either.
But the cultural level was really an eternal problem.
For a moment, Harrison Clark wanted to lay down and give up on his life.
It was impossible to learn fifteen years’ worth of knowledge in thirty-four days, even if you tried.
It was just too far-fetched.
But he couldn’t let his plan to have a child collapse at the college entrance exam’s gate!
Harrison Clark decided to go all out.
Whether he could or couldn’t, he would go through with it.
Harrison Clark checked the time. It was the familiar 1:30 in the morning.
He silently opened the junior high school textbooks- “Detailed Explanation of Mass-Energy Conversion Factor Equations under Low Energy Compensation State”.
Three minutes later, Harrison Clark silently closed the textbook.
Theoretical physics were a bit hard to deal with right off the bat. It’s better to look at some more practical biology knowledge.
“Nature of Photoelectric Effect in Photosynthesis and Analysis of Absolute and Relative Relationship between Unified Forces.”
Two minutes later, Harrison Clark closed the textbook again in his retinal display.
Salute to the great Earth.
A billion years ago, it had already produced something as advanced as chlorophyll.
Amazing!
Today’s human technology level has advanced beyond his imagination.
Even if it didn’t progress any further, as long as humans had time and their current technology, they could travel the Milky Way without much trouble.
Given infinite time, humans could even reach the heights of being spread throughout their own star system group.
So, according to the currently not-so-perfect Kardashev scale, which evaluates the energy utilization of a civilization, it’s not impossible for human civilization to surpass Tier 3.
A glorious Tier 3 civilization is still dealing with chlorophyll from a billion years ago.
The power of nature is truly terrifying.
Moving on to something closer to humans: the mitochondria inside cells.
As it stands today, mitochondria still represent the highest energy conversion efficiency “biological battery” known to man, even more powerful than the biological batteries driving battleships that come from Dyson membranes.
If the battleship’s energy supply system could achieve the same efficiency as the mitochondria, then it would basically reach the level of curvature motion, at least solving the energy supply problem.
This is both terrifying and comforting.
It turns out that long before the birth of mankind, the universe had already turned Earth into a treasure trove.
The essence of biology is actually the study of the universe, just like cosmophysics.
It’s just that one research subject is right in front of our eyes, and the other is far away on the horizon, but the depth of their content is not much different.
It seems that human civilization still has a long way to go.
So many years have passed, and we thought we had seen through the universe, but we still haven’t fully studied everything around us.
Humans…
Emmm…
Harrison Clark shook his head abruptly, “What am I thinking about!”
The junior high school textbooks are too terrifying!
I just glanced at them and started to let my imagination soar into the universe.
After an hour, he finally gave up on finding an easy target and picked up a random book to start browsing quickly.
At least now he has photographic memory.
With limited time and heavy tasks, he planned to first memorize all this information with his super memory, then slowly absorb it and gradually integrate it into a systematic knowledge system, learning as much as possible.
Nowadays, as more and more people become Galactic Humans with the continuous increase in awakening, the average memory is much stronger than it was a thousand years ago.
To learn knowledge, simply remembering is not enough, it must be applied and comprehended.
In this era, students spend very little time memorizing textbooks, as they can basically memorize the knowledge points early on, leaving most of their study time for digestion and absorption.
The process of students absorbing knowledge is like a cow digesting grass through its four stomachs.
First, use the rumen to store everything, and then slowly chew and re-digest it when there’s time.
After another sleepless night, Harrison Clark forcibly memorized all the learning materials for the first semester of junior high school.
In the past, Star said that his focus on learning was not high enough, and he couldn’t reach 100% without using drugs.
Now Harrison Clark disagrees.
In the past, I wasn’t serious because my motivation wasn’t strong enough.
People always have to push themselves, otherwise, they don’t know how awesome they can be.
As he got up to take a shower and eat, his head was still buzzing.
It wasn’t that he was stupefied by all the learning, but because there were quite a few instructional videos in the study materials.
To improve learning efficiency, he played a deadly trick by opening ten videos of ten different courses at the same time, speeding up the playback to eight times, and planning to “slow play” them in his head after they were loaded in. There were so many things to remember that he couldn’t help but recall them, and so it was like having ten people talking in his head at the same time, extremely stimulating and very schizophrenic.
At 7:30 in the morning, Harrison Clark still appeared on the training field on time.
Even Galactic Humans will have dark circles under their eyes after two consecutive days without sleep.
Daniel Thompson was startled by his appearance, “What did you do last night?”
Harrison Clark looked at him with lifeless eyes, “Soaring in the sky of knowledge and wandering in the ocean of culture.”
“Get lost!”
Daniel Thompson just couldn’t believe it.
Thinking about it, he seemed to have an epiphany, “Look, I’ve been through this. Listen to my advice, brother. Although the military regulations don’t explicitly limit this, you’re going to participate in the combination pairing selection. Take it easy and save up more of your energy. What if you get chosen? Since the General invited you, he must be very optimistic about you. You’re from the Black Bear Training Base, maybe he hopes to keep you here.”
Harrison Clark silently looked at him.
This guy, Lion.
It’s hard to say he’s stupid, but not really.
It’s hard to say he’s clever because he seems really stupid.
It’s hard to say he’s a fool, but he’s very serious about everything.
Maybe being reckless is also a talent. I just hope his wife isn’t eavesdropping on this.
Seeing how tired Harrison Clark was, Daniel Thompson didn’t force him to do routine training with the others. Instead, he had someone bring over a chair for him to sit on the side and help guide the technical movements.
Yesterday, this expert made over a million Rhine Currency through live training, and his fame spread throughout the base. At least in the aspect of physical training, he was already unbeatable.
Daniel Thompson didn’t try to figure out how this man did it.
Without asking, he could guess Harrison Clark’s answer, “Maybe, this is talent.”
Less than half an hour after the formal training began, loud snoring could be heard from the side.
Harrison Clark had fallen asleep.
Daniel Thompson wanted to scold him, but he held back and let Marthus carry him back to the dormitory to sleep.
Late that morning, an unexpected visitor appeared at the Black Bear Training Base next to the training ground.
This man, dressed in a general’s uniform, stretched his neck to look around while repeatedly opening the general’s control system, trying to use artificial intelligence to help find someone’s whereabouts.
Some people noticed this unexpected guest and were shocked.
General Brown!
Why is he here?
Isn’t it his time to sweep the Lost City today?
What is he doing here?
The news spread quickly, and Daniel Thompson was also startled.
Daniel Thompson’s reaction was deeper than others’.
Everyone in the Human Defense Force knows that General Brown is a battle maniac, keen on hunting.
Harrison Clark’s dazzling performance in the past two days, from the 99 points in simulator proficiency assessment to the too points in physical training assessment, caught General Brown’s attention.
