I'm a senior in high school, and the Emperor Development System has arrived!

Chapter 41 Now it feels like I'm going to Peking University, and I'm already a senior.

Chen Zhou was naturally unaware of Yu Xinyan's thoughts; he was focused on his first exam after the upgrade.

The last multiple-choice question was very difficult; after eliminating two obviously wrong options, it was hard to arrive at the correct answer.

This question is clearly not something a player of his level could answer.

However, not being able to solve the problem doesn't mean you won't get the points. Chen Zhou has a unique set of tricks for solving math multiple-choice questions.

Some exams often mimic the distribution of multiple-choice questions in the National College Entrance Examination (NCEE), with the four options divided in a 3:2:2:1 ratio.

Of course, this pattern doesn't occur every year, but it may exist in three or four out of the five sets of college entrance examination papers.

Since he couldn't write anything down, Chen Zhou thought he might as well guess and glanced at the options for the first seven questions.

3C2B1A1D?

Based on the pattern, the answer to question eight should be somewhere between A and D.

However, option A has been eliminated.

Chen Zhou naturally chose option D.

After passing the single-choice section, we move on to the multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank sections.

Once you get here, most of the questions are basic, so they're easy to answer without any problems.

This also relieved Chen Zhou.

A test paper shouldn't be difficult from beginning to end; it seems this test paper is the type that's difficult at the beginning and end but relatively easy in the middle.

In the last multiple-choice question, there was one option I wasn't sure about, so I left it blank and kept at least 4 points.

No problem with the three fill-in-the-blank questions, I'll take them straight!

After finishing the optional questions, Chen Zhou glanced at the time; there was still a full hour left.

Keep working hard!

As Lu Xun aptly put it, China has always had people who bury themselves in hard work and people who work desperately hard.

Chen Zhou felt that this sentence described him perfectly.

He's a typical tough guy!

Just as he was preparing to tackle the more difficult questions, many candidates in the exam hall found the exam too difficult and gave up, falling asleep on their desks.

Yu Xinyan, who was standing to the side, did not give up, but she was not much better off. She could only write down the questions she knew how to write, and then stared blankly at the remaining questions.

There are five major questions. Except for the first one, which is a standard trigonometric function question, the other questions are not easy.

The question types and their positions were fairly standard: the second question was solid geometry, the third was analytic geometry, the fourth was derivatives, and the last question was statistics and probability.

The question format was standard, but the questions were difficult.

This exam paper is completely unchangeable.

It was only then that she noticed Chen Zhou beside her was still writing furiously.

Judging from his expression, he wasn't just answering randomly; his problem-solving steps were methodical and orderly.

Although they were several meters apart, Yu Xinyan could still sense Chen Zhou's state of mind while he was working on the problem.

Upon seeing this, she couldn't help but feel surprised.

Does Chen Zhou really have the ability?

You managed to finish this kind of difficult test?

Yu Xinyan recalled that Li Bin had told her the day before yesterday that Chen Zhou's math skills had improved significantly, but she hadn't taken it seriously at the time.

But now it seems that there really is such a thing.

Listening to Chen Zhou writing furiously beside her, Yu Xinyan felt a pang of regret.

If they had treated Chen Zhou better before, he wouldn't be in this situation now, staring blankly at the questions.

Yu Xinyan sighed when she realized she had been spacing out for half an hour without solving a single problem, and then put down her pen.

Every hurdle is difficult, but you overcome them all.
Every problem is difficult to solve.

Chen Zhou answered the questions attentively, but the system soon popped up a message:
[His Majesty's divine might is awe-inspiring; Consort Yu regrets losing His favor. Imperial prestige +100]

[Imperial Might: 210]

Chen Zhou looked at Yu Xinyan with a puzzled expression. Was she having second thoughts again, even though they weren't best friends?
He scratched his head, completely bewildered. What was this woman regretting?
I need help online, it's urgent.

We finally made it to the last question without any major mishaps.

Chen Zhou glanced at the time; there were only ten minutes left.

He wasn't good at probability and statistics to begin with, and Chen Zhou racked his brains before he could barely finish writing the first two questions.

Just as Chen Zhou was thinking about the third question, he heard the exam ending bell ring.

He let out a long sigh, rubbing his aching wrists, and let the students in the last row collect his answer sheets.

Aside from the 2 points for multiple choice questions and the last question which I was sure to lose points on, and the eighth single choice question which I guessed, I had basically no problem with the other questions.

The last question is generally worth 9 points.

In other words, although Chen Zhou doesn't have a chance to score 140 on this test, he's guaranteed at least 130.

However, the current math level is clearly not sufficient to match such a score.

After much thought, Chen Zhou concluded that it was all thanks to luck.

He brought up the math skills interface:
[High School Math Level 1:]

「lv2—lv3，函数（500）、解析几何（300）、数列（300）、立体几何（300）、不等式（300）、导数（300）」

「lv1—lv2，集合（50）、逻辑基础（50）、三角函数（100）、解三角形（50）、平面向量（50）、统计（80）、概率（70）」

Thanks to the correct approach of adding points, all the difficult questions on this test paper were within the level 2 range.

The set theory and logic fundamentals sections will only have basic questions, and there will be 16 questions on trigonometric functions.

Planar vectors are generally quite simple.

This time, the first question was a fill-in-the-blank question, which tested vector multiplication.

As for statistical probability, the last question is too difficult, even with level 2, it is hard to solve.

Therefore, such success is not entirely due to luck, but mainly a result of adding some strategic thinking.

As soon as the exam ended, sighs and groans filled the exam hall, as everyone complained about the difficulty of the test paper:
"Who the hell came up with this question? Are they deliberately trying to make things difficult for us?!"

"Oh no, oh no! Now that my grades are out, I feel like I'm going to get into Peking University, and I'm already a senior, sob sob~"

"You have no idea, I kept calling for my mom during the exam. It wasn't because I felt any affection for the exam paper; I just had no other choice but to start calling for my mom."

"..."

At that moment, Zhou Xinglun walked over from the examination room downstairs, came to Chen Zhou's side, and asked in confusion:
"Is this test really that difficult? Why is everyone crying and screaming?"

Chen Zhou looked at Zhou Xinglun with suspicion. Could it be that he, like himself, was also a hidden math genius?

Out of curiosity, Chen Zhou asked:
"How many questions did you not answer?"

Stephen Chow chuckled, crossed his arms, and said proudly:
"You shouldn't ask me how many questions I didn't answer, you should ask me how many questions I answered."

Chen Zhou suddenly realized that Zhou Xinglun's skill level was not high, but rather too low, which was why he couldn't recognize the difficulty of the test paper.

Seeing Chen Zhou's expression, Zhou Xinglun glanced sideways and asked with a smile:
"And what about you, Elbow? How many points did you get on this test?"

If this test paper is considered difficult, then even though Chen Zhou is very capable, he probably still has a hard time passing it.

Chen Zhou counted the scores on his fingers:

"Single choice deducts 5 points, multiple choice deducts 2 points, the last question deducts 10 points, and some points will be deducted for some parts of the process that are not rigorous, so it will be about 130 points."

Stephen Chow's smile froze instantly, his eyes widened like saucers, and his Adam's apple bobbed for a long time before he finally managed to speak:
"13...130?!"

He staggered back half a step, his back slamming heavily against the desk behind him, drawing the attention of the students around him.

Since the new exam format was introduced, even the top students in the regular classes who excel in one subject only score around 110, and 120 is considered a high score.

Chen Zhou's estimate of 130 almost broke Zhou Xinglun's nerves:
"Pork knuckle, how many gauss did you eat in one meal?"
