This day, Bai Ge did nothing else but frantically absorb knowledge.
He hadn't been a top student back then, and he'd wasted several years. If he took the college entrance exam now, it would be difficult even to pass the undergraduate line.
But with his brain hole, that wasn't a problem.
Any information in reality became top-tier information in the brain hole world.
Just like Tai Chi, which became an supreme divine skill in the brain hole.
But he was the absolute Sovereign of the brain hole. For Bai Ge, learning a trash martial art or an immortal's ultimate technique in his own brain hole made no difference in difficulty. No matter how 'supreme' it was, he could learn it instantly.
Mathematics and physics were the same.
He not only finished Zhuang Ze's textbooks but also scoured the internet for materials to download.
Bai Ge, with money in hand, headed straight for the Xinhua Bookstore.
He now had the brain hole to contain knowledge, and his learning speed was astonishing.
Previously, the mere thought of studying made his head spin, but now he was excited.
After all, seeking knowledge is human nature. If learning were easy, everyone would surely enjoy it.
So, at the bookstore, he began to purchase madly. He bought not only books on math and physics but also a large stack of related books on philosophy, logic, psychology, economics, history, and more.
He browsed from the first floor to the third, filling a large shopping cart with books.
The sight made onlookers' scalps tingle, and the sales assistants were overjoyed.
He moved books, one by one, set by set, into the cart.
It was as if he wasn't buying books but clearing out the shelves...
As he continued, many onlookers sneered, thinking, "What a lunatic! Why buy so many books? To show off in his study?"
Bai Ge completely ignored these strange glances.
He didn't buy just anything; he specifically picked authoritative, textbook-style books that were obscure, complex, and professional.
He completely avoided 'popular science' or 'entertainment' type books.
Learning from those would only be theoretical.
When he finally went to check out, the total came to 160,000 yuan.
Even with this, he had only managed to acquire a tip of the iceberg of humanity's ocean of knowledge. Much more professional and in-depth knowledge wasn't published and couldn't be bought at the bookstore.
"This will do for now. I'll think about it in a few days. After learning all this, I'll at least be an expert professor."
After spending so much money, the bookstore arranged to have the books packed and delivered to his home.
At home, opening the packages and smelling the ink, Bai Ge smiled.
"Let's begin!"
He directly grabbed a set of history books and smashed them against his forehead.
Bai Ge's head was like a new dimension, silently making an entire set of books disappear.
He repeated this process, and hundreds of authoritative classics were thus sent into his brain hole.
"Information sharing."
Once the information recorded in the books was understood by Bell, it was immediately adapted and recorded by the brain hole world.
In an instant, with a mere thought from Bai Ge, countless fields of knowledge he had never understood before surged through his mind.
The world understood, and Bai Ge understood.
Learning knowledge was this simple.
He also specifically trained himself in mathematics, physics, and languages, at least mastering English completely.
Bai Ge was like an expert who had studied those subjects for decades. Without practical experience, purely from a cognitive standpoint, he could already be called a professor.
Perhaps his actual research was insufficient, but for taking exams, he was more than ready.
With his admission ticket, he bought a set of college entrance exam gear along the way and went alone to take the test.
After the tedious entry process, he finally received the exam papers.
Without any delay, he picked up his pen and began answering.
The Chinese language exam was arguably the simplest. Ancient texts, poetic sentiments – all had standard answers.
Bai Ge's writing flowed as if divinely aided.
The essay was a bit troublesome, as he had to write it himself.
But he wasn't someone who hadn't studied; combining his current knowledge, the essay he wrote wouldn't be bad.
He had already experienced the college entrance exam once, filled with nervousness and random scribbling...
Now, facing it again, his mindset was completely different.
It could be said that he was the most relaxed person in the entire examination hall.
Instead, the invigilator even stole glances at Bai Ge's exam paper with admiration, finding it quite interesting.
The next day, during the science comprehensive exam, an old man kept watching Bai Ge answer the questions.
He noticed that Bai Ge's approach to answering was very unconventional.
It wasn't the typical thought process of a high school student, and many questions weren't solved using the methods taught in school.
"He's using the simplest methods, not bad... and he reads the questions incredibly fast... his mind is so agile..."
The old invigilator watched with great interest. As soon as Bai Ge finished one question, he immediately started the next.
The time in between was barely enough to silently read through the question.
Bai Ge would often start writing immediately, without needing to think.
Several difficult problems were completed this way, leading the old invigilator to believe that this child, Zhuang Ze, was quick-witted and must be a top student who had completed countless practice problems.
In his experience, only those who had practiced with a vast number of mock exams could develop such clear and efficient problem-solving skills.
"This kid must have filled out thousands of practice sheets..." the old invigilator mused, preparing to walk away.
Suddenly, he seemed to see something and quickly turned back.
"Huh?"
"Why is this kid considering the gravitational constant of the Earth?"
"Eh? He's even taking into account the speed of sound in the atmosphere, which differs by ten meters per second between zero degrees Celsius and room temperature... The college entrance exam doesn't require you to consider this, does it... child..."
When the old invigilator saw a certain hypothetical application problem, he was completely stunned.
The question mentioned the speed of sound, which implicitly referred to the speed of sound at room temperature, without specifying the actual environment.
It was just an application problem, but Bai Ge, in his answer, considered the variations in the speed of sound across different regions and climates.
For instance, in atmospheric temperatures of zero degrees or lower, the speed of sound would decrease significantly.
Furthermore, the speed of sound also varied slightly under different atmospheric pressures.
As a result, Bai Ge provided multiple answers for this question, considering the different speeds of sound, which would lead to different answers.
Admittedly, this was extremely rigorous, perhaps even overly so, as the college entrance exam did not require high school students to consider so many factors.
"Although his answers include the standard one, he's definitely not agile due to practicing too many mock exams, as I initially thought."
A student who had done a large number of practice problems wouldn't have such peculiar problem-solving approaches and rigor. After all, which top student who had completed countless exams would consider objective conditions outside the scope of the test? This seemed a bit too conscientious.
It was as if Bai Ge wasn't taking an exam, but genuinely contemplating a real-world physics problem.
The old invigilator realized this, immediately discarded his previous assumption, and felt that Bai Ge was like a child who had never attended a modern high school.
"This kid seems to have... too much knowledge? He's answering based on his own knowledge, rather than the common exam-taking strategies."
Upon realizing this, the old invigilator could no longer move away.
He stood completely beside Bai Ge, continuously watching him answer the questions.
Bai Ge's answers were filled with the aesthetics of logical thinking, always providing astonishing solutions.
His comprehensive consideration of problems was appalling. The old man felt he wasn't watching a high school student answer an exam, but a seasoned professor using his vast knowledge and countless perspectives to crack a simple college entrance exam question.
Comparing them, the old invigilator suddenly felt the questions were childish and lacked rigor.
"How could I have such a thought? This is just a high school application problem; it's not meant to consider so much."
The old invigilator gave a wry smile. He had invigilated many times and had never encountered such an astonishing student.
His vision, knowledge base, perspective, and logical approach were all unique.
Was this truly a high school student?
Compared to high school students who had countless practice problems and were exam paper maniacs, the person before him undoubtedly stood on a higher plane, possessing a unique perspective and showing no signs of being constrained by the questions or the standard answers.
He even suspected that this child had never seen similar question types, or perhaps rarely completed related practice papers.
This was a Forced Breakthrough based purely on knowledge!
"He has too many answers. Although the standard answer is among them, if the grading teacher isn't sufficiently rigorous, they might mark him wrong."
"No, I must report this to my superiors. This student has transcended exam-taking mentality and must be encouraged."
