As for Su Yuan teaching himself all the Artifact Refining knowledge from the basics through sophomore level within a month?
Sorry, that was completely outside their range of consideration.
Because it was a feat no human could accomplish. Perhaps only the most talented among them, Wei Yuxiu, had any chance of pulling it off.
Taking a step back, even if Su Yuan really did master all the Artifact Refining knowledge up to the end of sophomore year, so what?
By then, a month would have already passed, the project would be over, and what waves could Su Yuan possibly make?
Thus, everyone in the laboratory merely paid Su Yuan a little attention before completely ignoring him.
That was why they failed to notice his strangely rapid learning speed.
Textbook after textbook was opened before Su Yuan. Under his ravenous study, he flipped through them at breakneck speed until reaching the final page.
Once he finished one batch of textbooks, he immediately switched to another.
Introductory Artifact Refining, Artifact Refining Fundamentals, Practical Artifact Refining, the Evil Slaying Department's freshman Artifact Refining textbooks, the sophomore textbooks, and a mountain of works by authoritative figures in the Artifact Refining world were all absorbed and mastered by Su Yuan without anyone else noticing.
Of course, mastering these textbooks did not mean Su Yuan could catch up to the Prodigies of the Ten Great Artifact Refining Departments.
It was just like the mathematics, physics, and chemistry textbooks from his previous life. The theories taught in them were the most basic of the basics.
To truly master that knowledge and achieve good results in the college entrance examination, one had to grind through problem after problem day and night.
However, relying on his many Artifact Refining talents, Su Yuan could drastically shorten the time needed for
