Chapter 2: The Wonders of Deep Learning State

Translation made by chatGPT-4

"Just hearing the name feels enticing."

Xu You knew that his usual study state could be considered rather poor.

It took him twice the time of others to achieve the same academic results.

This was largely because Xu You often stayed up late, leading to poor rest and a constant state of fatigue.

But if Xu You didn't stay up late, he would have even less time to complete the vast amount of learning tasks for various subjects.

He could only reluctantly fall into this vicious cycle.

[Assessing learning level based on the selected subjects...]

[Mathematics: 64]

[Physics: 62]

[Chemistry: 68]

[Biology: 72]

[Chinese: 76]

[English: 78]

[Note 1: A subject level of 100 represents a perfect score at the high school level, and theoretically, there is no upper limit for the scores in science subjects]

[Note 2: Language subjects are not considered within the scope of truth exploration]

"Accurate yet mediocre," Xu You sighed.

His proficiency in each subject was just slightly above the passing line.

Only in subjects like Chinese and English did he perform somewhat better.

But such language subjects were merely tools for human communication.

They did not belong to the strict realm of truth.

"Let's try what the deep learning state feels like. Activate deep learning state!"

Xu You silently commanded in his mind.

[Deep learning state activated]

[Currently, the host has 6 hours of deep learning state time each day]

[Please use your time wisely and cherish your daily vitality]

Suddenly, Xu You felt his brain enter an entirely different state.

The chirping of birds outside the window.

The whispers among classmates.

And other noises from different classrooms.

At this moment, all were blocked out by Xu You's brain.

His focus was entirely on the physics teacher.

Not only was his attention greatly focused.

But Xu You's energy levels also surged.

The drowsiness from staying up late vanished.

It was as if he had just drunk a large can of energy drink.

The boost in energy also led to an increase in the speed of brain function.

It was like an engine that hadn't been maintained for years.

Although the core hadn't changed.

After changing the oil and lubricating the gears sufficiently.

The performance of the engine significantly improved.

What astonished Xu You even more was that.

In this deep learning state.

The physics teacher's speaking pace seemed to slow down.

Normally, Xu You would struggle to keep up with the physics teacher's pace.

Of course, Xu You understood this issue.

If the teacher spoke too slowly, the progress would be completely off.

If it were tailored to every student's pace.

Then, in three years of high school, they could only cover the knowledge once.

There would be no time for a thorough review.

This approach would be less effective than speaking faster and adding three rounds of review.

Xu You glanced at his watch.

Based on his rough feeling, in the deep learning state, his biological clock's flow of time was about half the normal speed.

In other words, in the deep learning state, Xu You would have twice the time!

With the multiple enhancements in attention, energy, and brain processing speed.

Xu You's learning efficiency would increase exponentially!

Excited, Xu You quickly discarded these distractions and refocused on the physics teacher.

After all, every moment of deep learning time was precious.

At this time, every minute truly was worth its weight in gold!

Following the physics teacher's logic, Xu You found the problems starting to become simpler.

"It turns out it was my lack of a clear sequence in analyzing forces that led to mistakes."

Xu You quickly identified the reasons for his errors in the problems.

As the physics teacher said, these problems were not difficult.

As long as one understood the method of solving them and followed the steps, there would be no issues.

"Ah, I didn't think about the fact that when a car brakes, its speed doesn't increase in the opposite direction."

This common mistake was often mentioned by the physics teacher.

But during exams, students would overlook this critical factor due to lack of time, among other reasons.

This time, Xu You deeply ingrained the lesson, ensuring he wouldn't overlook this critical issue again.

After one class.

The physics teacher went through all the high-error-rate problems in the exam paper.

Due to time constraints, some problems were only briefly explained by the teacher, or even passed over with a single sentence.

But Xu You understood every word the physics teacher said.

"I got it, I understood everything!" Xu You exclaimed excitedly.

Apart from the simplest problems about mass points when he first started high school.

This was the first time Xu You felt so comfortable listening to a physics class.

Of course, the teaching method of the physics teacher hadn't changed.

It was just that Xu You's learning efficiency in the deep learning state was incredibly high.

Before the class was about to end, the physics

 teacher pulled out a stack of test papers.

"These questions are similar to the ones in the recent exam. I'm distributing them now, and we'll collect them at the end of the next class. Those who need to use the restroom during the break can go, and if not, start answering the questions once you receive them."

Although they had not officially entered their senior year.

After the previous senior class had completed their college entrance examination, they were essentially considered pre-senior students.

The schedule was adjusted to have two consecutive classes for one subject to improve review effectiveness.

This arrangement could enhance review efficiency to a certain extent.

But it also made students who disliked the subject feel even more despair.

"Damn, we just had the monthly test, and now a quiz!"

"No way, I didn't even understand the exam questions."

"I'm done, I'm tired."

Amidst the classmates' lamentations.

The physics teacher added insult to injury:

"Since we've just covered these types, scoring below 80 is considered failing. Those who score under 80, go home and copy the entire exam paper, questions and answers, five times."

Copying as punishment, of course, had no real significance.

The physics teacher just wanted to use this method to emphasize the importance of the quiz.

In the midst of widespread groans.

Some "smart" students began to look for suitable "big legs" to cling to.

After all, this was just a quiz, not as strictly proctored as the monthly exams.

As long as they found the right "big leg," scoring a casual 80 was no issue.

Naturally, everyone first thought of Lu Zhiyao.

However, Lu Zhiyao didn't talk much with others.

For things like quizzes, once Lu Zhiyao finished, she would submit her answers immediately.

She wouldn't share her answers with others like some "helpful" classmates.

After receiving the test paper, Lu Zhiyao started answering immediately without looking up.

Unlike most classmates.

Faced with this sudden quiz, Xu You had not a trace of negative emotion.

It was as if he had just leveled up in the newbie village and was about to head out to fight a boss.
