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.
