n“Does Master wish to activate ‘Rapid Growth’ now?” Just as Lin Xiu was looking at the defensive equipment curiously, another notification popped up.

n

n

nLin Xiu was still suspicious, but he decided to go ahead with it.

n

n

n“Master, please equip the training gear.”

n

n

n‘Training gear? These things?’ Under his curious impulse, Lin Xiu donned on the bracers, sleeveless garment, and leg guards.

n

n

n“Equipped, ‘Rapid Growth’ system Activated.”

n

n

n“Progress 0

/10000 (Note: 25 Potential Points to be gained upon completion)”

n

n

n“25 Potential Points?!” Lin Xiu was startled but became ecstatic. That was 25 Potential Points, almost equivalent to him gaining 12 levels.

n

n

nBut Lin Xiu was curious, how could he increase the progress?

n

n

nWhile thinking about it, “Bang”, his entire body fell to the ground.

n

n

n“Damn it!” Lin Xiu exploded with curse words because he discovered that the original light equipment had suddenly become extremely heavy.

n

n

n“The bracers are almost 20kg…”

n

n

n“The sleeveless garment is about 40kg, while the leg guards are around 20kg each, this is killing me.”

n

n

nAfter his training, Lin Xiu was almost out of energy, this made him so angry that he wanted to take out the equipment.

n

n

n“Warning, prohibited from unequipping before completion.”

n

n

nRight at this time, a cold notification appeared in the system.

n

n

nFollowing the notification, a burst of electricity shot out from the equipment and jolted him.

n

n

n‘Damn the system, it wants to kill me!’

n

n

nHe knew that it would not be that easy to gain 25 Potential Points just like that.

n

n

nRight, there were other things inside the Gift Pack.

n

n

nLin Xiu struggled to search the Gift Pack and took out a card as well as an eccentric herbal medicine.

n

n

n“Rapid Growth Enlightenment Card?”

n

n

nLin Xiu looked at the introduction at the back: Utilising it will increase enlightenment ability, effective duration: 1 day.

n

n

nWhat did that mean?

n

n

nThe other medicine was used to treat wounds.

n

n

nLin Xiu was stunned but placed both things into his bag.

n

n

nAs he had exhausted himself with training prior, taking a step now was extremely difficult for him. Without a choice, Lin Xiu crawled and rolled before being able to drag him and the spear back to the dorm.

n

n

nWhat Lin Xiu was unaware of was that after that night, an inconceivable rumor had spread throughout the dorm: A crawling zombie had appeared at midnight.

n

n

nInside Xin Yao Academy’s north campus training ground.

n

n

nThe majority of students were sprinting at high speed while others stood in the center to train themselves or spar.

n

n

nThe entire field was extremely rowdy.

n

n

n“Round 19…” Lin Xiu felt giddy but persevered.

n

n

nThere was a total weight of approximately 140kg on him. Under such a weight, the burden on his physical body was too huge and Lin Xiu clenched his teeth to run.

n

n

nFor every round, he saw the progress increase by roughly 10 points with the occasional 20 points. It was uncertain.

n

n

nThe current progress was 321

/10000, he was still far from success.

n

n

n“Big brother Lin Xiu!” Right at this time, a voice came out from behind as Lin Xiu felt a smack on his shoulder.

n

n

n“Bang!” Lin Xiu immediately fell to the ground.

n

n

n“What are you doing!” Lin Xiu turned and glared behind him, under the heavy stress, the sudden smack on the shoulder had forced him down to the ground.

n

n

nHe turned and saw a beautiful girl who had red eyes seemingly from being shouted at. It looked as though she was about to cry.

n

n

n“Shuang’er, it’s you?” Lin Xiu was startled when he saw her.

n

n

n“Sorry, Big Brother Lin Xiu’s mood isn’t that good.” Lin Xiu immediately crawled up and consoled her.

n

n

nYe Shuang’er, the daughter of a weapons craftsman that stayed beside Lin Xiu. Due to their proximity, they were familiar with one another.

n

n

nThe young girl in his memory had grown into a slender and elegant woman.

n

n

n“Hmph!” Ye Shuang’er glared at him before breaking out into a smile.

n

n

n“Why are you here?” Lin Xiu asked.

n

n

nHe recalled that she was a sophomore.

n

n

n“It’s almost midterms and our teacher wants to bring us to a few academies to see which one we like.” Ye Shuang’er replied.

n

n

n“Aren’t you in 2nd year now?” Lin Xiu asked.

n

n

n“Heheh, I skipped grades!” Ye Shuang’er raised her head and replied proudly.

n

n

n“So powerful.”

n

n

n“But of course.”

n

n

n“What about it, are you prepared to come to Xin Yao academy to play with me?” Lin Xiu smiled and revealed his white teeth.

n

n

n“So narcissistic, who wants to find you!” Ye Shuang’er punctured his dreams and glared at him as her cheeks turned slightly red.

n

n

nEver since Lin Xiu entered senior high, they had not met for a long time.

n

n

nHe had inherited Lin Xiu’s memories and treated Ye Shuang’er as the little sister of his neighbor. They sat side by side on the grass and chatted.

n

n

n“Are there so many evolved beasts in A20 District?” Hearing Lin Xiu’s account of A20 District, Ye Shuang’er’s eyes revealed excitement and fear.

n

n

n“I want to go for actual combat training as well…”

n

n

n“Are you a beginner warrior now?” Lin Xiu laughed and asked.

n

n

n“Eh, isn’t that Lin Xiu, the one who stayed beside you?” Before Ye Shuang’er could reply, an untimely voice came out.

n

n

nTang Ping looked at Lin Xiu with an ugly expression and said; he was Ye Shuang’er’s peer that had come over to take a look at the academy.

n

n

nYe Shuang’er was pretty and adorable and naturally had many suitors after her. Tang Ping had previously heard of Ye Shuang’er having a very good older brother. After seeing how Lin Xiu and her were seated so intimately, he became extremely unhappy.

n

n

n“I heard that Xin Yao Academy’s strongest last place is a person called Lin Xiu…” Another person by Tang Ping’s side spoke up as well.

n

n

n“Tang Ping, what is the meaning of this!” Before Lin Xiu could speak, Ye Shuang’er fumed with anger as she turned and screamed at Tang Ping and his clique.

n

n

n“Nothing much, we juniors saw our senior Lin Xiu and felt like having a sparring session.” Tang Ping waved his hand and chuckled.

n

n

nHe had long heard that Lin Xiu was not even comparable to a beginner warrior and was considered trash. Despite being two years ahead, Tang Ping believed he could defeat him easily.
