The enhanced mental strength brought with it heightened senses, significantly boosting Feng Qi's learning efficiency.
He completed the second lecture on Cultivation Technique Research theory in about two-thirds of the time it usually took him.
Though he still needed to review the material repeatedly, the improvement was undeniable.
If learning a subject were a journey, he had now acquired a vehicle, allowing him to traverse the same distance to the destination more efficiently and shorten the overall travel time.
That's a good analogy, but you're still riding a bicycle. Photographic Memory is the real spaceship—it gets you to the finish line in a flash. Not only can you absorb all knowledge in a single pass, but you don't even need to memorize it carefully. A glance at the screen is like taking a screenshot; you can immediately flip to the next page.
Feng Qi: ...
Ignoring the Narrator's mental assault, he focused on his studies.
The joy of learning lies in the accumulation of knowledge, much like leveling up a character and acquiring better equipment in a game.
Mastering knowledge in an unfamiliar domain is akin to conquering a game dungeon.
That's why he always maintained a positive and optimistic attitude toward learning.
After watching two episodes of the "Fundamentals of Cultivation Technique Research" course, Feng Qi began searching the database for information related to biological sciences.
He had already decided on his next timeline: infiltrating the Scarlet Research Institute.
Knowledge of biological sciences would be crucial for securing promotions and salary increases, allowing him to penetrate the Scarlet Core Domain.
During his search, he stumbled upon an intriguing piece of technical documentation in the field of biological sciences.
The document primarily detailed a method for treating hair loss.
Modern hair transplant techniques, while effective, don't truly cure baldness. Even successful transplants only offer temporary solutions.
This technology, however, promised to fundamentally resolve the problem of hair loss.
It was a challenge that remained unsolved in the Reality Line. As children, we were taught that knowledge changes destiny... but more often, it changes hairstyles.
When the once-thick, black hair of youth recedes like a tide, leaving only an ever-retreating hairline... the myth of "going bald makes you stronger" is just that—a myth. In reality, balding invariably makes you uglier.
This can erode confidence and even jeopardize one's chances of finding a mate and reproducing.
Feng Qi was particularly interested in this technology because it wasn't overly complex and could serve as one of his research achievements after infiltrating the Scarlet Research Institute.
From a certain perspective, it could be considered a benefit to society.
When memorizing the information, he encountered the same problem as before:
Many technical terms were incomprehensible, disrupting the flow of reading and hindering his memorization efficiency.
Memorizing material he didn't understand required rote memorization, leaving no room for shortcuts.
Fortunately, with his enhanced mental strength, rote memorization had become somewhat easier than before.
Time flew by as he studied. After finishing the relevant materials, he selected another topic in biological sciences and began learning.
During this visit to the Dream Realm, he hadn't obtained any crucial intelligence, so he focused on studying to prepare for the next timeline.
While studying, he suddenly remembered something. He closed the document and typed "Destiny Association" into the search bar.
Immediately, a flood of headlines appeared on the screen:
A 15-Year-Old Cancer: How Three Bratty Kids Became the Biggest Obstacle to Human Progress
Decoding the Destiny Association's History: The Cognitive Errors Born from Ignorance
Perhaps even the three bratty kids couldn't have imagined the immense impact their accidental creation, the Destiny Association, would have in the future. By the time they regretted it, it would be too late.
Seeing these headlines, Feng Qi knew his previous attempt to dissuade them had failed.
The three mischievous kids had secretly established the Destiny Association after all.
The fluttering moth's gaping maw is poised to unleash a new historical storm, preparing to pinpoint its target.
Feng Qi: ...
The Narrator's words perfectly aligned with his next course of action. He immediately began searching the database for the location where the three kids had formed the Destiny Association.
After entering the keywords into the search bar, the relevant information appeared on the screen.
This time, the trio had changed their venue, opting for a teahouse in the suburbs of Star City, with the meeting scheduled for just over ten days later.
Having pinpointed the coordinates, Feng Qi hardened his resolve.
He vowed that his next intervention would deliver an even harsher lesson to the three troublemakers.
If they still refused to repent, he would continue until they finally learned their lesson.
After closing the relevant data pages, he dedicated the remaining time to his studies.
After completing a learning session, he would take a brief break to review historical records for about ten minutes, allowing himself to relax.
Maintaining a constantly tense state of study would hinder his learning efficiency, causing the knowledge to become tangled and interfere with each other in his mind.
Reviewing history didn't require rote memorization, yet it allowed him to absorb historical information while enjoying a moment of relaxation.
In history, those who have passed are like books.
Some become historical classics, others forbidden texts, some collections of jokes, while others serve as beacons illuminating the paths of those who follow.
