Chapter 130
And strictly speaking, it is unnecessary information for students in the backward star regions.
The actual scope of self-selected topics is much wider, but when Jiang Yunu saw the part outside the syllabus sent by Teacher Mudisa, he suddenly discovered that there was not a single item on it that was accessible to students in the back star area.
For example, "wartime maintenance of advanced special equipment", "simulated decomposition of intermediate and above crystal cores", "advanced element battlefield observation and comprehension", "intermediate element battlefield wartime command simulation", "intermediate and advanced battlefield geographical overview", etc. ... A series of prefixes such as "intermediate", "advanced", "intermediate and advanced" almost brainwash people. Even after the terminal screen has been moved for a long time, various level symbols are still floating in front of the eyes.
"These things..." Jiang Yunu rubbed his eyes. "Have any of them been taught to students in the courses we opened at Enge?"
Shesh replied, “No.”
Joyson asked blankly, "If someone wants to choose these, how should they take the test?"
Shesh looked at the red-haired boy with almost pity. "These things were not originally chosen for students from our back-of-the-sector area. What are you thinking?"
His voice was still light, but that mocking smile returned to his words.
Jiang Yunu closed his eyes for a moment to ease the dizziness, then opened the stack of exam syllabus contents with dense prefixes.
She pointed to a few items that seemed to require little practice, only theory, and asked, "Like this—Intermediate and Advanced Battlefield Geography Overview, and Battlefield Observation Reflections. Can't these things be learned through holographic images and shared databases?"
"No," Xie Shi replied bluntly and coldly. "The database is also divided into different levels. Do you think the schools in the more distant star regions haven't tried to gain access? But the key is in the hands of the schools in the more advanced star regions. Their response was—[Sorry, we believe your school is not currently eligible to join the sharing program]."
Databases are closed, and schools in the more distant star regions cannot access advanced databases. School libraries cannot provide advanced materials, and students are intellectually barred from these "advanced courses." Therefore, when large-scale exams like the entrance exams arrive, students in the more distant star regions can only choose their own questions within a limited range of "independence," engaging in intense competition within this limited range of question types.
"What if..." After listening for a long time, Joyce raised a weak objection.
Jiang Yunu and Xie Shi turned back to look at him. He whispered, "If some of these 'advanced questions' are the source of the 'differential scores' that senior schools value so much, then..."
Young Master Xie immediately understood what Joyson was trying to say. While the red-haired boy hesitated, unsure how to proceed, he took over and said, "—That means this high school, from the very beginning, never considered recruiting students from the more remote star regions."
First, we close the door to "independent topic selection" and then add another hurdle in the enrollment process of high-level schools.
In the end, only a handful of students can make it onto the admission list of top star-level universities.
To use a phrase from Jiang Yunu's past world - [Thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge].
But when you run to the single-plank bridge, you find that there is a wide and broad road not far away, but the entrance to the road facing you is locked with a sign that reads - [We are very sorry, you are not invited to enter this road].
Jiang Yunu completely understood why Teacher Mudisa gave the abridged version of the exam syllabus at the beginning.
Some problems and some gaps are kept unknown to most people at this critical juncture when the entrance examination is approaching. This is a conservative and helpless compromise choice.
If you don't know the inside story, you might still keep running forward. However, seeing the huge gap in advance will make some people discouraged and think that it is better to be reborn in a better place than to work hard.
but……
Jiang Yunu turned to look at Xie Shi and said, "Why don't you seem worried? What if I get discouraged after hearing all this?"
Not only did Teacher Mudisa carefully keep this news secret from the graduating class, but other teachers—such as Leis Daniel, who frequently met with Jiang Yunuo, and Lu Xixi, who occasionally visited her to comfort her—also kept it a secret. Teacher Lei, at most, simply warned Jiang Yunuo that differentiated screening would be more difficult, but he never mentioned the discrepancy between the question bank and the database.
Young Master Xie dumped everything out to her like a flood.
Qiao Yisen's face suddenly came to light, and Xie Shi's expression became alert. "You are not here to undermine Xiao Jiang's confidence in the exam, are you?"
Xie Shi: “…”
Master Xie had a cold expression, but still revealed a hint of disbelief as he asked, "Do I look like that kind of person?"
Joyson seemed to want to say "It's hard to say", but after his eyes moved between Jiang Yunu and Xie Shi, he chose to keep silent for the time being.
Anyway, Xie Shi only looked at Jiang Yunu.
Jiang Yunu met Master Xie's gaze and sighed, "Well, you don't seem like that kind of person. You probably just think it's okay to reveal this kind of news to me."
Xie Shi: “…”
Xie Shi really thought so, but people like him would feel uncomfortable when Jiang Yunu told them his true inner thoughts word for word, as if he would be unwilling to admit his true thoughts once they were verbally revealed by others.
The white-haired girl also said, "Master, in your mind, I must be an alloy woman who can remain unaffected even when news of an asteroid about to explode spreads."
Shesh said, "...I don't think so. Don't add drama to yourself."
As if to hide his embarrassment and discomfort at being exposed, Young Master Xie glanced critically at Jiang Yunu.
He added, "It's really strange to see you calling yourself a 'woman'. You're the kind of person who could wear androgynous clothes and a hat and walk into the men's room without anyone suspecting anything."
The young master secretly mocked Jiang Yunu as a little girl whose gender characteristics were completely unrecognizable.
Jiang Yunu said frankly: "I was born female, so I can naturally call myself a woman."
She touched her chin and suddenly laughed.
"If you keep saying that my sexual characteristics aren't strong, I'll actually follow you into the men's restroom next time." Jiang Yunu threatened Xie Shi, "Shall we go and verify your words?"
Xie Shi felt that he had underestimated Jiang Yunu. Jiang Yunu was always upgrading his "divine gold" and "thick skin". He was angry at first, and then inexplicably felt a little embarrassed. He was filled with shame and anger, and was threatened by Jiang Yunu and ran away.
Joyson was full of admiration.
The news revealed by Shesh may have had a greater impact on Joyson than on Jiang Yunuo. The red-haired boy spent the next week worried about Jiang Yunuo's academic advancement, and even couldn't help but say "It's so unfair" when he called Qiao Daisi to say hello.
Aunt Daisy didn't know what her son was saying at first, but she was very good at prying words out of Joyson's mouth, and soon learned about Jiang Yunu's "dilemma".
However, this dilemma made Joe Daisy sigh uncontrollably - some things that adults have long taken for granted always seem a bit cruel when they are first passed on to children who are still innocent and have many beautiful fantasies about the world.
Therefore, not long after that, Jiang Yunu received another caring call from Aunt Daisy.
But Jiang Yunu was much more accepting than Joyson.
"Don't worry about me," the white-haired girl said confidently. "Before we knew this news, the teachers all believed I could get into a prestigious school in District 3. There's no reason to think I wouldn't be able to get into a school in District 3 after this hidden information was revealed."
There is only one reason why Jiang Yunu could give up her sprint target - that is, she no longer sets the other party as a target.
"I will not be shaken by this information," said Jiang Yunu.
On the contrary, when she knew that what she was going to do was difficult, perhaps even several times more difficult than she had originally thought, Jiang Yunu was even more stimulated by her desire for challenge and exploration. She felt that her adrenaline was secreted more vigorously than usual, and her adventurous heart was beating.
"If I can accomplish something that's more difficult than I originally expected," Jiang Yunu said cheerfully, "it would definitely be a great sense of accomplishment."
Jodie didn't want to discourage the child, but she was accustomed to making a bad assumption and was afraid that the child who imagined everything in a good way would be hurt.
"What if it doesn't work out?" asked Aunt Daisy.
Jiang Yunu said: "Then it was not achieved, I gained experience."
Although he didn't get any results, he gained experience, which is not a bad thing in Jiang Yunu's life guide.
After receiving concern from all her relatives and friends and realizing the true difficulty of what she wanted to achieve, she was able to concentrate more on her studies.
A week before the entrance examination, teacher Mudisa tapped Jiang Yunu on the head after class and reminded her to remember to free up half a day that Friday.
"Has your talent level been checked yet?" Mudisa asked. "Before the exam, your talent level should be assessed. The level report will be counted towards 'differentiated screening' and will be a key assessment factor for admission to advanced schools."
It's amazing to say that Jiang Yunu's talent level has never been measured, but based on her daily performance and her actual combat results in the inter-school competition, everyone seems to have tacitly agreed that her talent level should be undoubtedly high.
What Mudisa hadn't told Jiang Yunu was that she had previously held a "small meeting" with Reiss Daniel and Lucy. The teachers all agreed that, given that students from more remote star regions didn't have an advantage in "self-selected topics," Jiang Yunu's exceptional talent might be the key to gaining admission to a prestigious school.
Jiang Yunu took half a day off on Friday. Instead of taking the test at school, she went through a transfer station and was taken to a new area she had never set foot in before.
The seventh district branch of the Linglu Psychic Association.
