Experiments require time to deliver results.

However, the writing of the “thesis” could begin in advance, with the modular, conceptual, and framework-related content getting put on paper first.

The thesis Link was writing belonged to the category of experimental papers, generally composed of an introduction, main text (experiment principles, experimental materials, equipment and methods, experiment process, experiment results, analysis and discussion), conclusion, and references.

The introductory section needed to be explicit, elaborating on the rationale, purpose, and significance of the experiment.

It would include but wasn’t limited to what experiment was being performed? Why was this experiment necessary? How was the question raised? What were the theoretical and practical basis? What problem was solved, and what were the application scenarios for the experimental results? What work has been done by others or predecessors? Which problems hadn’t been resolved? What was expected to be achieved from this experiment?

The final part should highlight the innovative outcomes achieved from this experiment.

All of this content could be written up beforehand.

A researcher should ponder on these questions and have some results before commencing an experiment.

The main text had rich content. If one waited until the end of the experiment to start writing, it would be chaotic, with a high chance of overlooking important aspects.

Sections like experiment principles, experimental materials, equipment and methods were small projects, which could be penned down beforehand, which in turn, would help in organizing thoughts.

For the experimental process, aside from the experimental data, other aspects, such as experimental plan, technical route, operational steps, could all be written up in advance, or be written while the experiment was ongoing.

Any changes could be made as necessary.

This approach was not only convenient but also ensured minimal errors as much as possible.

The experiment results couldn’t be written in advance. You had to wait for the experimental data to come out to determine how to process it, how to present it, and what results were obtained in the end.

It couldn’t be predetermined as that could induce biases while handling the experimental data.

The part of analysis and discussion was crucial, as its objective was to articulate the significance of the experimental results.

It had to highlight the verifiability, factualness, and originality of the experiment.

This part demanded a high level of theoretical comprehension from the “thesis” author and truly reflected the breadth and depth of the author’s knowledge.

Usually, the conclusion section was written or formed after the experiment was finished, the experimental data had been processed, and a thorough analysis and discussion of the experiment had taken place.

References, on the other hand, could be written entirely beforehand. More could be removed, and less could be added.

Over the next few days, Link was even busier than before.

He had to attend classes, do part-time work, conduct experiments, and write a thesis.

Thankfully, Link was well-versed in time management and had the help of the most potent “Mind Closure Technique” to sort out his mental state and control his emotions. He didn’t experience any signs of irritation, anxiety, or indecisiveness that often occur among researchers.

Otherwise, Link’s hairline would have been in grave danger.

Loss of hair was almost a rite of passage for a qualified researcher, right?

Witnessing Link’s frenetic state, Jasmine felt a sense of foreboding about her future.

As she increasingly concentrated on her studies and acquired more knowledge, Jasmine’s understanding of wizards also deepened, going beyond the surface.

She fully realized why official wizards, who served as lecturers, always seemed in a rush, fearful of wasting even a second of their time.

The Wizard World was highly advanced in civilization, with very clear divisions among different gradations: Wizard Apprentice, Official wizard (First Level Wizard to Third Level Wizard), Sage (Fourth Level Wizard to Eighth Level Wizard), Great Sage (Seventh Level Wizard to Ninth Level Wizard), and Saint (beyond Ninth Level).

Countless wizards were striving on this grand road to success. However, resources were limited. To acquire more resources to boost their promotion, they had to put their shoulder to the wheel.

How would they do it?

Two ways: wage external wars on the Heavenly World or produce research outcomes internally.

These were the only two routes they could take.

However, those below the Sage level couldn’t choose the route of external wars. Because official wizards would face issues such as casting delay, deviation, or even backlash once they broke free from the rules of the Wizard World.

Only after being promoted to Sage and establishing a strong connection with the world mind of the Wizard World, could wizards harness the extension of the Wizard World’s world mind in the Heavenly World and cast spells normally.

Therefore, all official wizards were research fanatics, vying to produce research results.

What?

You say you don’t want to strive, that you want to take it easy?

That’s possible, absolutely possible.

However, once you decided to slack off and take it easy, don’t blame others who are working hard for exploiting you.

When that time came, instead of leading a comfortable life, you’d become others’ stepping stones for their promotions, their consumables.

Jasmine didn’t want to become consumable at all.

Having grown up in luxurious clothing and food, she had witnessed the miserable lives of lower-class people who had lost their freedom and were exploited by nobles in her territory.

She didn’t want to live such a life.

“I must strive!”

Glancing at Link, who was engrossed in editing his “thesis” without knowing anything outside the window, Jasmine gave herself a motivational push.

Even if a Clinging Flower wanted to latch onto an oak tree, it needed to root itself in the ground and grow vigorously.

It seemed like a blink of an eye.

Without realizing how time had flown by, it was already Wednesday of the eighth week.

That evening, after finishing his part-time work at the Third Botanical Garden and returning to the dormitory, Link performed the Tier 3 Misty Rain Technique twice and the Birth Induction Technique once on his group of seeds. Amid the lack of any signs of germination in the seeds of group A, group B, group Ding, and group Wu, the Silver Star flower seeds of group C sprouted energetically out of the soil.

As for group C (normal seeds, one Tier 3 Misty Rain Technique every morning, two Tier 3 Misty Rain Techniques every evening, and one Birth Induction Technique every two days), it had already sprouted on Monday.

Link gathered the data, recording the sprouting time, germination duration, and germination success rate of group C.

He briefly compared the data of group C and group D. Under the same germination strategy devised by Link, group C’s normal seeds sprouted two days earlier than group D’s defective seeds. The germination success rate was also 8% higher. Group C had 79-2%, and group D had 71.1%.

Considering the sample size issue, if the sample size was expanded, the numerical value of germination success rate could be further refined.

However, both numbers had decent validity and reliability.

At this point, Link’s “thesis” took basic shape.

As for the experiments of group A, group B, group Ding, and group Wu, they had been performed by others before, and related “theses” could be found in the Advanced Literature Library.

If he directly quoted the data from these references, Link could make slight modifications to the “thesis” now and get ready to publish it.

However, Link decided to be patient for better results and planned to wait until the experiment was done, all data was in place, and then fill in the real data into the “thesis” and publish it later.

Details decided success or failure.

The truth of the numbers could sometimes be calculated.

Link didn’t want to lose big over small matters, had he picked up sesame seeds and lost watermelons, and gained a “thesis” forgery reputation.

Once a reputation was ruined, like water splashed on the ground, it was nearly impossible to regain it..
