Now that this situation had emerged, things had changed.
Just as had been said before, life always found its own way out.
If people's average lifespans grew longer, then their prime years would naturally grow longer as well. For example, the average lifespan in the country had previously been around seventy-six, while the retirement age was sixty-five.
If the average lifespan reached one hundred and twenty, that meant retirement could be postponed to one hundred, or even later.
That meant the length of people's prime years would naturally increase.
There would naturally be no issue with the knowledge currently being taught. Moreover, extending human lifespans was not as simple as merely extending lifespans.
Put another way, the human body was a complex and precise system. Strengthening a single component alone could not extend the service life of the entire machine. To extend the machine's overall service life, every part of the machine had to be improved.
And improving the entire machine meant humanity as a whole would improve, including the brain. In other words, children would become increasingly intelligent. If, one or two hundred years from now, everyone possessed intelligence like Jiang Yan Hai's, that would mean humanity's learning ability itself had improved as well.
With learning efficiency like Jiang Yan Hai's, he could complete thirty years' worth of someone else's learning in twenty years. That in itself was a form of evolution.
Never underestimate that. It was inevitable.
Perhaps it was not that the human brain had evolved, but merely that the explosion of knowledge had increased humanity's utilization rate of the brain, unlocking more of it. After all, the human brain was far too mysterious.
Under such circumstances, this could be said to be a necessary result that an intelligent species had to go through in order to
