    Lu Zhou did not stay at the library all night today. He went to eat noodles at the cafeteria before he went back to his dorm.


    He had not even entered the dorm when he heard a loud discussion about the exam questions.


    However, the second he entered the door, all of the discussion stopped.


    There was no choice, a discussion had to be evenly matched. When Lu Zhou walked in, they went silent.


    “Oh, you guys can continue, I’m not participating. Just pretend like I’m not here,” said Lu Zhou awkwardly.


    Shi Shang coughed and said, “Uh, let’s change the topic. Zhou, how did you do in the exam yesterday?”


    Lu Zhou thought for a second before saying, “I did okay.”


    When the three animals heard him, they stopped talking about the exam questions. Instead, they all returned to their seats and went on theirptops.


    Huang Guangming, “Full marks, full marks.”


    Shi Shang sighed, “Full marks, no doubt.”


    Liu Rui, “Let’s y league. I want to y attack damage carry, I heard ability power carries are also strong.”


    Shi Shang, “F*ck off!”


    Huang Guangming, “No one’s going to support you!”


    Liu Rui: “...”


    Lu Zhou, “...?”


    The music of Summoner’s Rift came on, and the dorm became lively again.


    Lu Zhou took off his clothes before he went to take a shower. Once he was done, he climbed back into bed andid down.


    Shi Shang was in a team fight, and when he saw that Lu Zhou was already in bed, he asked, “Zhou, why are you sleeping so early?”


    “I’m a bit tired, I’m justying down.”


    Shi Shang, “Oh, I told you to sleep at a normal time, but you didn’t listen. See, now you’re facing the consequences.”


    “F*ck off, go y your video game and shut up.”


    Lu Zhouid in bed and used his pillow to block the noises. He then closed his eyes and thought, “system”.


    When he opened his eyes, he saw a pure white world.


    [Congrattions, user, forpleting the mission!


    [Missionpletion details: Complete the research project of carbon nanotube modified cement-basedposite materials. Final evaluation of the task: A


    [Mission reward: 10,000 mathematics experience points, 3000 physics experience points, 3000 materials science experience points. 500 general points. 24 inspiration hours (use at any time)]


    When Lu Zhou saw this award, he was shocked.


    <i>Total of 16,000 experience points!</i>


    He had only got 10,000 mathematics experience points when he solved Zhou’s conjecture.


    Once he thought about it, it all made sense. After all, ording to the description of the mission, the experience points were determined not by the academic value of the thesis, but by the value of the research project and the user’s contribution to the project.


    Using that line of logic, this reward made sense. After all, this project had more than 2 billion yuan behind it. Even 10% was 200 million yuan.


    Also, proving Zhou’s conjecture probably had some kind of mission reward debuff, since Lu Zhou got the solution as a blueprint. The system’s rules were very confusing. It only gave the lucky draw probabilities. Lu Zhou had to figure everything else himself.


    This time there was not even a lucky draw ticket. Instead, it was a “24 inspiration hours” reward.


    Did it promote thinking ability?


    Even though he was very curious as to what kind of experience “inspiration time” was, he could not use it in the dorm.


    24 hours was not a lot. He nned to use it when he got stuck on a problem.


    After Lu Zhou received the mission rewards, he opened up his characteristic panel.


    [


    Core science:


    A. Mathematics: Level 2 (12000/50000)


    B. Physics: Level 1 (5100/10000)


    C. Biochemistry: Level 1 (0/10000)


    D. Engineering: Level 1 (0/10000)


    E. Materials science: Level 1 (3000/10000)


    F. Energy science: Level 1 (0/10000)


    G. Information science: Level 1 (2800/1000)


    General points: 1975

    Lu Zhou was close to leveling up physics, so he felt pretty good. In the past, he thought that physics was useless, and he could upgrade itter. However, now, he decided to level up mathematics and physics at the same time.


    Lu Zhou silently prayed before he opened his refreshed mission panel.

    Mission 1: m Dunk


    Description: Even though learning is important, health is more important. Exercise can strengthen the body and inspire you, so why not?


    Requirements: Complete 3000 three-pointer shots. At least 10 seconds apart from each shot. Must be a standard basketball hoop.


    Reward: 3000 experience points toward any subjects. One lucky draw ticket (90% garbage, 5% sample, 5% drawing)

    Mission 2: Two at once


    Description: A real genius is never afraid of challenges!


    Requirements: Register for two national-level or abovepetitions, evaluate andpare yourpetition results.


    Reward: Reward is based on the amount of value in thepetition and results. One lucky draw ticket (85% garbage, 10% sample, 5% drawings)


    ]


    [


    Mission 3:


    Description: The prosperity of knowledge lies inmunication and in the collision of ideas. Academic exchanges are an opportunity tomunicate with geniuses.


    Requirements: Participate in one academic conference andplete the following actions: Make a presentation on stage, present an academic poster, listen to the lecture,municate with geniuses, etc...


    Reward: Type of subject experience points is determined by the type of academic conference. Reward amount depends on the degree of participation. One lucky draw ticket (80% garbage, 10% sample, 8% drawings, 2% unlock technology branch)

    The first mission was difficult, three thousand three-pointers. Lu Zhou had not shot that many three-pointers in his life.


    As for dunking...


    He could do it standing on a chair?


    He calcted that it would take him more than a month toplete this. 3000 experience points was a bit too low.


    He ignored the first mission and focused on the other two. Finally, he chose the most cost-effective Mission Three.


    Entering in twopetitions and doing well in them was not difficult for Lu Zhou, but the selection and evaluation period was too long. He had a Princeton mathematics academic conferenceing up in early February, and it would be easy toplete the mission there.


    Lu Zhou selected Mission 3 and left the system space.


    He had lots to prepare for the academic conference.


    Obviously, he had to do the powerpoint, and he had to make the academic poster. The most crucial part was his English.


    Even though his English was pretty good and he had published a lot of theses which increased his vocabry, he stillcked in speaking experience.


    He still had two months, and he decided to grind his English within this time.


    He would alsoplete TOEFL in the meantime.


    A genius can never have too many certificates.
