Chapter 115 The Changing Data Panel (3K)

Jiang Xun had a good reputation at Peking University and even had a group of fans.

Some bored people created a "Freshman Popularity Ranking" on the first day of school, and he was prominently ranked at the top.

There's even a rumor that he was the most handsome guy at Peking University, or the number one genius at Peking University.

His photos were posted on the forum, and videos of him singing during the December 9th Movement activities at school were also dug up, including photos of him taking off his shirt.

As for his novels, they are almost universally known, since Qidian (a popular online literature platform) uses his name for promotion.
The effect was indeed very obvious, helping him to push the average subscription of "The Great Qin Night Watchman" to nearly 6+, far exceeding the average subscription record when "Battle Through the Heavens" was serialized.

Handsome, good physique, good at playing sports, can write songs, a platinum author on Qidian.com, and the top scorer in the national college entrance examination...

All these titles made him an undisputed star at Peking University, with unparalleled prestige.

However, as the old saying goes, "A tree that stands out in the forest will be felled by the wind; a mound that rises above the bank will be eroded by the current; and a person who excels above others will be criticized by the masses."

The immense prestige and popularity naturally attract some unavoidable criticism.

Especially after photos of him shopping with two girls last night were posted, the entire forum exploded.

The most common explanation is that Jiang Xun's college entrance examination scores were outstanding, and he also possessed considerable talent.

But now that he's made money writing novels, his mind is no longer on his studies. All he cares about is chasing girls, and he's even chasing two at a time. He's completely neglecting his studies.

Some people even compared the top students from the School of Mathematical Sciences, the School of Physics, and the School of Life Sciences to them, saying that they had already started preparing papers and were working hard on academic research.

In comparison, it seems that Jiang Xun, the top scorer in the national college entrance examination, is actually a bit of a slacker.

Even a second-year male student majoring in Chinese literature wrote a long article denouncing Jiang Xun for distorting the values ​​of contemporary young people, corrupting the school's atmosphere, and seriously damaging the school's academic environment.

Although the entire piece revolves around the same few points, this guy's writing is quite eloquent, and he easily gained the approval of many people.

Of course, most of them were boys.

Students at Kyoto University are inherently proud, and before entering society, they don't have much of a concept of money.

They don't think being rich is anything special; ten million is nothing. What's truly impressive is academic achievement and contributing to the country.

Of course, they will naturally understand the difficulties once they enter society, but that doesn't stop them from collectively criticizing Jiang Xun now.

This massive "anti-god movement" ignited the Peking University forum in just a few hours.

Although there were some comments defending Jiang Xun, they didn't make a ripple amidst the overwhelming condemnation.

Jiang Xun, the person involved, simply glanced at it and then ignored it. To him, this childish little fuss was as boring as playing house.

However, he did not expect that students nowadays would be so diligent; freshmen from other colleges were already preparing to publish papers.

Although I also have plans in this regard, I am not as anxious as they are. After all, this is not something that is better done as quickly as possible.

However, this incident also caused him to cancel his plans to visit Hangzhou in the near future.

After all, if I try to avoid military training at this point, it might really cause some negative consequences.

After noon, Jiang Xun declined Chen Dapeng's invitation to play basketball and went straight to the library of Yuanpei College in Building 35.

In fact, even at top universities like Peking University, not many freshmen can quickly get into their studies after just one or two days of school.

Many are taking the opportunity to relax, after all, they've already studied hard enough in high school.

It's just that everyone's expectations of others and themselves are definitely different, especially for someone like Jiang Xun who has some fame.

Whatever the reason, I just can't stand him going out to flirt with girls from the Beijing Dance Academy just because he has some money. He should stay in the library and not go anywhere else.

Alright, now that Jiang Xun has met these people's demands, he's decided to focus on improving his knowledge.

Arriving at the third floor of the library, there weren't many people there. After all, there weren't many people in the entire Yuanpei College. Everyone was quietly reading and studying.

Jiang Xun began searching for the books she wanted in the reader search area.

During his high school years, he had already collected some university textbooks and basic knowledge, such as Fang Qiqin's "Mathematical Analysis".

This book covers core topics such as limits and calculus, and is highly rigorous.

For example, Rudin's "Principles of Mathematical Analysis" is a book with highly condensed theory that cultivates abstract thinking;

For example, Pei Liwen's "Typical Problems and Methods in Mathematical Analysis" is a book that mainly focuses on strengthening problem-solving skills.

In addition, he also included almost all the other books such as "Computer Principles", "Advanced Physics", "Biology", and "Chemistry and Applied Chemistry".

By incorporating this knowledge, Jiang Xun also elevated computer science, physics, chemistry, and biology to an advanced level.

Since reaching the advanced level, an experience bar has appeared. Every time Jiang Xun collects a related work, the experience bar will increase.

His data panel now looks like this—

[Host: Jiang Xun]

【Age: 19】

Height: 183cm, Weight: 79kg

[Charm: 83, Constitution: 83, Spirit: 81] [Skill: Literary Creation, Advanced (82%)]

English, Advanced (60%)

Computer Science: Advanced (12%)

[Mathematics, Advanced (11%)]

Physics, Advanced (8%)

[Biology, Advanced (6%)]

Chemistry, Advanced (5%)

……

Now Jiang Xun is focusing on improving specific skill levels and experience based on needs, such as computer skills.

This is his top priority to improve, even more so than mathematics.

He first mastered essential knowledge, including machine language, assembly language, and high-level languages, by reading basic books such as "Computer Languages".

Subsequently, by reading the book "Computer Systems: A Programmer's Perspective" on the underlying principles of computer systems, I directly mastered core skills such as assembly language optimization, memory management, and caching mechanisms.

In addition, he spent a lot of time compiling books such as "Thinking in Programming", "Introduction to Algorithms", "Algorithms", "Operating Systems: The Essence and Design Principles", and "Compiler Principles".

He may not be a computer genius now, but he is definitely an expert. However, that's not enough. He needs to master higher-level computer skills as soon as possible.

Some books that he couldn't find online before were easily found in the Kyoto University library.

"High Performance MySQL" is an essential classic in the field of databases.

"Design of Data-Intensive Application Systems" - Distributed systems are a core technology in the era of cloud computing.

"Understanding the Java Virtual Machine" emphasizes that the underlying mechanisms of the language determine the upper limit of development.

"C++ Primer" discusses how C++ is often used as the core language for system-level development.

Of course, there are many other related books, but Jiang Xun has only found these few so far. He plans to collect them first and then move on to the next ones.

[Currently adding "High-Performance MySQL", completion rate 1%... Computer skills and experience progress 0.2%...]

After reading about two or three pages, the system's notification panel appeared, reigniting Jiang Xun's passion for learning.

Since reaching an advanced level in computer skills, he has tried reading many related books, but his progress has either stalled or been extremely slow.

But after reading only two or three pages, my progress has already increased by 0.2%. It seems that you really need to read high-quality material to improve your progress.

He scanned the book in his hands carefully and attentively. Although he didn't turn the page after just one glance, his eyes scanned line by line, and it didn't actually take much time.

So his reading speed was indeed a bit exaggerated. In order not to disturb others, he simply found the most secluded corner and squatted there to read.

Time often flies when you're focused on something, so fast that Jiang Xun didn't even realize it was already dark, and his stomach was growling loudly.

When he finally finished collecting those books, the data panel showed that his computer had reached advanced level 94%, and his mental attribute had finally increased by 1 point.

In a pleasant mood, he was about to get up and leave the library to get something to eat when a pleasant voice suddenly rang out beside him.

"You finally finished reading it." There was a hint of helplessness and a touch of sigh in his voice.

Jiang Xun looked in the direction of the sound and found Song Ziyan sitting at the bottom of the bookshelf next to him.

Because he was standing while Song Ziyan was sitting, he looked down at her and accidentally saw a large patch of her snowy chest.

She was dressed casually today, wearing a black off-the-shoulder knit top and a black A-line skirt.

She revealed half of her snow-white shoulder and delicate collarbone.

Her long hair was tied up in a cute bun, with a few strands falling to either side of her pretty face. Her delicate features were accompanied by a helpless smile, making her look like a gentle senior student.

"Senior, when did you arrive?" Jiang Xun was somewhat surprised. He hadn't even noticed that Song Ziyan was sitting so close to him.

It seems I should read some books to improve my perception, though I don't know if there are any.

"I've been here for almost three hours." Song Ziyan gave him a gentle glare; this guy was just too engrossed in his book.

However, she also admired Jiang Xun quite a bit. Although she didn't know exactly how long he had been there, he had been sitting there almost without moving since she arrived.

Moreover, he was reading very quickly the whole time, and at that speed, Song Ziyan initially suspected that he was faking it.

But after looking at it carefully for a while, she realized that he was really looking at it, and he almost never skipped a single word, even reading the annotations line by line.

Considering his status as the top scorer in the national college entrance examination, it seems reasonable that he reads faster.

When Jiang Xun heard Song Ziyan say that she had been there for more than three hours and seemed to have been waiting for him, he felt a little embarrassed and smiled:

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, senior. I'll treat you to a meal."

Song Ziyan was clearly a little hungry too. She picked up her small bag and slung it over her shoulder, saying as she walked:
"This time it's on me. Even though you're a big spender, you can't always be treated like a tycoon."
