Chapter 244 None of Them Are Simple (Part 2)
Unlike Gu Wei, who was a mysterious time traveler.

Although he also comes from a lower-level civilization like Earth and his knowledge system is even more limited than Mold's, Gu Wei is only twenty-four years old, and his knowledge framework has not yet been fully integrated with his experience.

This kind of framework, built entirely on theory, is not very difficult to replace.

So, with Jin's help, the system's 'update' went relatively smoothly during this period.

But old Berry was different.

He not only mastered the complete knowledge system, but also put it into practice through Mold's various projects over several decades, so it can be said that it has become ingrained in his very being.

This type of person wants to adapt to the knowledge of the new version.
It is at least several times more difficult than Gu Wei's.

"in addition."

Without pausing, Jin continued, "Besides the difficulty in updating his knowledge system, Old Berry also has another problem: his subject imbalance is quite serious—well, much more serious than what Old Joe described."

She emphasized the word "very" with particular emphasis.

Milo was taken aback by this and asked, puzzled, "What's going on?"

Jin glanced at Qiao Kewen, who was isolated outside the mimicry membrane with a 'simple and honest' face, and her expression was somewhat subtle: "Back then, Old Berry's Xinghai unified exam score was 3425. Among them, the six written exams added up to 322, but he scored nearly full marks in applied physics with 991."

"In addition, the last big math problem was completely wrong because the decimal point was written wrong by one place in the middle step. However, the solution was correct. It's a pity. It would have taken me at least half a minute to solve this problem when I was his age."

Milo's eyes widened instantly.

Good guy.
The six written exams in the Xinghai Unified Examination only totaled 322 points?
But there are 991 in applied physics?

The captain of the Fluttering Fluttering remained in a daze for a good half minute before finally slapping his forehead hard:
"Holy crap, this old Berry is a real talent!"

Yes, he's quite talented.

To know.

The Xinghai Unified Examination consists of twelve subjects, each with a maximum score of one thousand, for a total score of twelve thousand.

These twelve subjects are evenly divided into arts and sciences, and the final total score is recorded for admission based on tiered rankings—this is different from the arts and sciences division on Earth.

After all, the education system in Xinghai is far superior to that on Earth in terms of level and the overall education cycle is also longer. Although there are no majors in arts and sciences, talents can still be selected accurately.

In other words.

Old Berry scored near-perfect marks in applied physics, and 322 in the six humanities subjects out of a total of 6000.
No wonder Joe Cowen said that if Berry hadn't been so weak in academic subjects, he might have been the first Molde native to escape the Maze—Joe Cowen himself only scored a little over 6700 points back then.

Old Berry scored over 3,400 on the college entrance exam. If he hadn't been weak in any of the six humanities subjects, getting half of that score would have been about the same as Joe Cowen's.

As for what Jin said, it's a pity.
This refers to the mistake made by Berry on the last big math problem.

This is even more serious than being unbalanced in academic subjects!

If there were no calculation errors in this big question, Berry's math score, or rather his total score in the six science subjects, should have exceeded 4,000. With that score, some engineering colleges might be willing to disregard his humanities scores and admit him directly.

The specific admission requirements may be quite stringent, such as requiring a certain number of years of service to the college after graduation, signing a loan agreement, or undergoing annual assessments during the studies.
However, the colleges that are qualified to admit students with specialized skills are generally not low-level, and may even be on par with Qiao Kewen's alma mater, ranking among the top 300,000 in the entire Star Ocean. But alas, life doesn't offer "what ifs."

“Alright, I understand Old Beric’s situation,” Milo then put the topic of Old Beric aside and continued to ask Jin, “What about Ophelia?”

"Let me take a look"

Upon hearing this, Jin quickly flipped to the next section of the document, glanced at it a few times, and her expression became increasingly subtle: "Huh?"

Milo quickly asked, "What's wrong? Is there a mismatch in the information?"

He and Jin had known each other for quite some time, and it was rare for this pervert to make such an expression.

In a very short time, Milo had a lot of guesses in his mind, some good and some bad.

“Well, it’s not what you think,” Jinfei quickly waved her hand, handed the documents to Milo, and gestured with her chin: “Take a look for yourself.”

Milo immediately picked up the report and started reading.

Then Jin glanced at Li Zi and Gu Wei, who were staring at each other with meme-worthy expressions, and said to them, "Old Qiao's niece is quite something. I'm starting to believe what she said—do you know what she did at the academy?"

Gu Wei and Li Zi quickly shook their heads.

“This girl formed a small group in the academy, whose members are all crown princes from other third- or fourth-tier civilizations,” Jin said with a wry smile, while also sending the information to Gu Wei and Li Zi. “Then she tricked these small groups into pooling their money to start a brokerage club, introducing projects to lower-level civilizations and even academy professors and taking a cut. And probably because of her fondness for Adele, she is still referred to as ‘Mom’ in the club.”

“Ophelia’s secret stash has made quite a bit of money. According to Meimei’s analysis, it should be close to the wealth of a newly established second-tier civilization.”

Gu Wei: ".????"

Oh my god.
Mother?

Is there something to do with Wa's junior brother in this?

Ophelia's academy belongs to a mid-tier fourth-order ordinary civilization called the Duchy of Fude, which is also a member of the Tallinn Grand Alliance. In other words, she is one of Bhikkhu's spies.

However, due to Lyndont's influence, Ophelia did not fully come into the sights of the Kingdom of Bichuli. As for Lyndont himself, he was not very concerned about this unplanned variable—his only request of Ophelia before this was not to return to Boska.

Therefore, Lynn didn't notice.
Ophelia actually managed to create such a small group within the Principality of Falk.

Of course.

Given Lynn Dort's level of expertise, even if he knew about this small group, he probably wouldn't care too much.

But for Ophelia herself, it was truly remarkable to have managed the club to that level.

Putting everything else aside, just becoming the leader among that group of second-generation rich kids is incredibly difficult—Boska is essentially a remote, impoverished area, much like how a girl from an ordinary family in a small southwestern town before Gu Wei's transmigration managed to gather a bunch of local followers in a rather xenophobic place.
That obviously requires some skill.

And there's her little savings.

This is equivalent to a fraction of Earth's wealth—considering only the accumulated civilization, not the planet's actual value.

It seems
Ophelia seems to actually have the potential to be a leader?
