For the next few days, Li Shi spent less time playing video games and took some time to revise two academic papers.
The old lady laid out a list of submission format requirements that day. After reading through it, Li Shi finished formatting both papers in less than half an hour. The rest of the time, he focused on enhancing the content.
When he was writing, ideas flowed freely, enabling him to finish rapidly and joyfully.
However, academic writing differs from artistic creation. For artistic creation, Li Shi would never revise his work after a burst of inspiration, but academic writing required careful consideration even after the burst of inspiration had passed. He had to carefully consider the logic and academic depth of his work.
But he wasn't in a hurry. Fishing often meant playing fewer video games, and sitting by the river with his printed thesis papers handy, slowly revising them. Time seemed to slip away unnoticed.
