    Perfectly matching your preference for a "campus-themed + no superpowers" genre, I recommend "Who Would Study Civil Engineering After Rebirth?" 1. Complete Campus Timeline: The story begins in the senior year of high school, fully covering the college entrance exam and university studies. Two protagonist growth storylines run parallel, with no jumps in plot. 2. Zero Fantasy Setting: There are no superpowers like special abilities, systems, or spatial abilities. There are no outrageous plot points like instant score boosts or sudden wealth. All changes stem from the protagonist's own perseverance and past life experiences. 3. Dual-Line Realistic Growth: The male protagonist relentlessly studied in high school to achieve a breakthrough and change his major, then ventured into the real economy and finance in university. The female protagonist persevered under family pressure to practice piano in high school, then focused on classical music in university, later starting her own music platform. The details of their campus dreams are meticulously portrayed. 4. Professional Realism as a Bonus: The author has a bachelor's and master's degree in finance from Shanghai Jiao Tong University. The content regarding college entrance exams, major choices, and university entrepreneurship is realistic, and the character growth is gradual and avoids unrealistic tropes.
