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

2009, Shengzhou University.

"The day's class is finally over. Shall we go to the 21st century together in the evening?"

21st Century is an Internet cafe near Shengzhou University. It is very popular in Shengzhou University because of its cheap fees and good equipment.

"Okay, okay, let's go to the cafeteria quickly to buy food. After packing, we will go directly to the 21st Century."

"It's better to go directly and play for a while before eating, otherwise there may not be seats connected together."

Ning Chen listened to the conversation of the other three people in the dormitory and said calmly:

"I won't go. I have to go to the library after dinner."

"Damn it, Ning Chen, you want to go to the library now? It's only been less than a month since school started, why do you need to work so hard?"

As freshmen who have just escaped from the hard life of senior year in high school, everyone enjoys the freedom of college life.

Ning Chen stopped explaining to his three roommates. As a reborn person, Ning Chen had no interest in playing games online.

Arriving at the library, Ning Chen found a seat and sat down.

Ning Chen did not rush to take out the book, but silently recited something in his mind.

Immediately afterwards, a virtual interface appeared in front of Ning Chen.

[Host name: Ning Chen]

[Brain power index: 78 (the higher the brain power index, the stronger the brain's understanding ability, calculation speed, and memory. The average human brain power index is 60 points)]

[Mathematics: Lv0 (30/100)]

[Physics: Lv0 (18/100)]

[Chemistry: Lv0 (16/100)]

[Creature: Lv0 (16/100)]

[Information: Lv0 (24/100)]

…

After reviewing his personal interface, Ning Chen continued to look down at the system task interface.

[Task: Enter the flow state for a total of 100 hours (current progress: 0.2/100)]

[Task introduction: The first step to becoming a top student is to develop good study habits. Be free from interference from the external environment and quickly enter a highly concentrated learning state]

[Task reward: 10 points of energy, 20 points of subject experience (energy can be used to improve the mental index, and subject experience can be added to any subject)]

Seeing that the current progress of the task was only 0.2/100, Ning Chen shook his head helplessly.

“It’s really not easy to get into a flow state!”

Just three days ago, when Ning Chen woke up, he went back to the 18-year-old version of himself fourteen years ago, when he was just a freshman in college.

Along with his rebirth, Ning Chen's brain was also bound to a wonderful system.

This system is a learning-oriented system that can display various data related to Ning Chen's learning and also has the function of publishing tasks.

However, this first task stumped Ning Chen.

"In three whole days, I only entered the flow state for 0.2 hours... If this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to complete this task in a year."

The so-called flow state is a magical state in which one is fully devoted to an activity and will not be disturbed by the external environment.

If you can get yourself into a flow state, it will undoubtedly greatly improve your learning efficiency.

Ning Chen had accidentally entered this magical state before, but this situation was rare.

Especially when Ning Chen deliberately tried to get himself into a flow state, it would have the opposite effect and make him unable to concentrate.

"Forget it, don't think so much now."

Ning Chen understood the principle of "flowers planted with intention will never bloom", so he simply stopped worrying about this matter.

In the last life, Ning Chen had many regrets, one of which was that he did not make good use of his four years in college, but spent the four years in a muddle-headed manner.

Ning Chen's grades in high school were pretty good. In the college entrance examination, he passed the materials major of Shengzhou University with a score of 588.

Although Shengzhou University is not among the top universities in the country, it is also one of the 39 key universities.

After reviving his life, even without a system, Ning Chen would definitely spend more time and energy on studying.

Thinking of this, Ning Chen turned his cell phone to silent, rummaged through his school bag, and took out "Advanced Mathematics (Part 1)".

Mathematics has always been Ning Chen's favorite subject. In his previous life, Ning Chen worked as a high school mathematics teacher in an education and training institution for several years.

It's just that Ning Chen's mathematics knowledge has always been at the high school level, and the little advanced mathematics knowledge he learned in his previous life has long been forgotten.

Clearing away the distracting thoughts in his mind, Ning Chen prepared to learn advanced mathematics from scratch.

"The first chapter, functions and limits, is very closely related to high school mathematics."

Soon, Ning Chen found the feeling and began to study the knowledge in the book efficiently.

Ning Chen has always regretted that he did not study this knowledge properly in college, and now is the time for Ning Chen to make up for these regrets.

Unconsciously, Ning Chen felt as if he had lost the concept of time and devoted all his attention to this book of advanced mathematics.

Along with the blurring of the concept of time, Ning Chen also felt a sense of relaxation and comfort, which was very difficult to feel in normal study.

What Ning Chen didn't know was that he had quietly entered a state of flow.

On Ning Chen's system interface, the task progress also began to scroll forward.

At 9:50 pm, the librarian began to remind students to leave the library.

"The library will close in ten minutes. Please pack your belongings and prepare to leave. All items on the desk in the study room will be cleared. Please do not leave your belongings behind."

In 2009, the study room in the Shengzhou University library had not yet implemented a 24-hour system. Those who wanted to study all night could only go to the study rooms in other teaching buildings.

In order to prevent someone from always occupying a certain seat, the library will clean the books in the study room every day to ensure that each seat can be used effectively.

After hearing the librarian's words, Ning Chen noticed that it was already so late.

"It's almost ten o'clock? I didn't expect time to fly by so fast."

While sighing at the passage of time, Ning Chen checked the task progress on the system interface.

What surprised Ning Chen was that the progress of the system task had actually reached 3.5/100.

"I was in a flow state for more than 3 hours just now? No wonder I have such a high learning efficiency."

Ning Chen clearly felt that his learning efficiency just now was much higher than usual. Not only did he complete self-study of a large chapter, but he also completed most of the exercises in this chapter.

Not only that, Ning Chen didn't feel too tired. Instead, it was due to the flow state just now that it brought him a sense of joy and accomplishment.

"Perhaps, this is the meaning of learning."

At this time, Ning Chen somewhat understood the purpose of the system.

Even if a person has a very strong learning ability, if he cannot develop good study habits, his talent will be wasted.

After returning to the dormitory and washing up, Ning Chen felt that his excitement was gradually fading, and his tiredness began to rise.
