Chapter 22 Physical Strengthening
"Ding!"

"Mission completed! 10 motivation points have been issued. At the same time, physical strengthening will be carried out while the host is asleep."

With one day left before the school selection, the physical training task has finally come to an end.

Xu Ling has been looking forward to these 10 motivation points for a long time, because he had saved 100 diligence points before. With these 10 motivation points, he can participate in a bonus lottery.

What if you draw some incredible treasure, wouldn’t it be a sure thing for you to be selected in school?
With a thought, a floating turntable appeared in front of Xu Ling.

After inputting 10 motivation points as a bonus, Xu Ling decisively pressed the lottery button.

"Ding ding ding ding ding..."

After two draws, Xu Ling no longer felt as nervous as before and called a halt casually.

"Ding-ding-"

The pointer slowed down and finally stopped on a glowing square.

"Congratulations to the host for winning the blind box of Intermediate Academic Master items! Do you want to open it?"

Intermediate academic master props!

Xu Ling's expectations were instantly raised: "Open it!"

The golden light dissipated, and a small sachet-like thing floated in the air.

[Focus Sachet: Wearing it will slightly improve your concentration while studying and help calm your mind during rest. Valid for seven days.]

I rely on!

What a treasure!

Xu Ling was full of excitement. Although Xu Ling's concentration when studying had been greatly improved, what was wrong with being more focused?

Besides, if you want to turn on the focus mode, you have to study hard.

Not to mention its calming and soothing effect.

Too bad it has a limited usage period.

After getting such a useful thing, Xu Ling no longer cared about the other reward of the task, which was to strengthen the body.

The only good thing for him was that the body strengthening was done during sleep, which was very humane, just like the system updates of some mobile phones, which could be set to update at night.

When he left the playground, it was already evening. Xu Ling walked slowly towards the cafeteria.

On the way, Xu Ling occasionally met a few students walking side by side on the road, discussing something.

When Xu Ling listened carefully, he found out that they were discussing a physics academic competition.

"Hey, have you all signed up for the school selection?" asked a person walking in the middle.

Several people traveling with him immediately started talking at once.

"I signed up. I have nothing to do on Friday afternoon anyway, so it's not a disadvantage."

"I didn't sign up. It's not interesting. I'll just go sit there for two hours and get only ten points on the whole test. Isn't that just going to jail?"

"What if I get a few more questions right? What if I get selected by the school?"

"Come on! You don't even know your own weight. Is the competition that easy?"

"Let's take a step back and say, even if you pass the school assessment, the provincial and national competitions won't just be about solving problems; they'll be about teamwork! By then, it won't matter whether you choose a mule or a horse, or a chestnut!"

"Hey, don't make it sound so difficult. Since he has signed up, let him try." The person who spoke first ended the topic.

Then a few people started talking about basketball, games and the like.

In the conversation between these people, Xu Ling grasped a key point.

Team competition!
I'm not sure what the format is. How many teams can a school send? What's the maximum number of people on a team?

Xu Ling was full of anticipation, but he still didn't look up any information. He wanted to leave some suspense for himself.

Obviously, Xu Ling has never considered the possibility of failing the school selection. He has enough confidence in himself now.

"Auntie, I want a bowl of spicy chicken and rice."

While thinking, Xu Ling had already arrived at the window where he often ate.

While waiting, another thing came to his mind, about the sachet he had just drawn.

This sachet, according to the system, will only be effective after wearing it.

So what does it mean to wear it?

Do I really need to wear it around my neck? Wouldn't that be embarrassing? Would it be effective if I put it in my pocket?

Unfortunately, the system does not provide any additional explanation for "wearing".

"Classmate! Your meal is ready!"

The cafeteria aunt's shout brought Xu Ling back to his senses. Who cares! Just wear it around your neck. It's only for seven days, so why bother?

While eating rice, Xu Ling finally stopped worrying.

……

"Crack!"

Xu Ling had just opened the dormitory door and hadn't walked in when he saw three people in the dormitory jump up from their seats and rush towards him.

"Tell me! What did you do the whole afternoon? Did you go to the library again?" Yang Chaojie asked gritting his teeth.

"That's right! Speak quickly. Leniency will be given to those who confess, and severity will be given to those who resist!" Qin Kai and Wang Rui also echoed.

"Well... do you believe me when I say I didn't go to the library?" Xu Ling held his forehead with his hand, his face full of black lines.

"Well... I don't quite believe it." Wang Rui shook his head.

"Then tell me what you were doing!" Yang Chaojie asked again.

"I went to the playground to exercise." Xu Ling told the truth.

However, when I told my roommates the truth directly, they didn't believe me.

"How is that possible?" Qin Kai reacted the most.

Wang Rui let out a long "Oh" and said with sudden realization, "I know! Xu Ling was knocked down last time, and he's been working hard to avenge his previous humiliation!"

Damn! Don’t expose other people’s shortcomings!

Xu Ling instantly felt embarrassed and pretended to be vicious, saying coldly, "You know too much!"

"Hahahaha!" Several people suddenly burst into laughter and pushed each other into the door.

For the rest of the evening, Xu Ling's roommates surprisingly did not play games.

You know, since their relationship started to improve, having a sweet three-person group chat every night has become their inevitable activity.

Are you afraid of losing?

Or do you really want to study wholeheartedly?

Xu Ling kept speculating in his mind.

……

At half past eleven, the lights in the dormitory were turned off.

As usual, Xu Ling went to bed and fell asleep early.

In a daze, Xu Ling found that he was not sleeping in bed, but standing barefoot in a huge white space.

The white plane under your feet extends infinitely in all directions, with no end in sight.

"Where is this? Am I dreaming?"

Xu Ling was full of doubts.

He pinched his thigh and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

Because he actually had feelings!
I rely on!

Xu Ling instantly lost his composure.

The scene of being abducted by aliens kept flashing through Xu Ling's mind.

"Ding!"

"Host, please don't panic!"

Just when Xu Ling was terrified, the system's voice suddenly sounded, giving Xu Ling a great sense of security.

"call--"

Xu Ling breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that this should be a physical enhancement, but it is really difficult to accept it for a while because it is not explained in advance.

"Host, please relax and lie down on the platform."

As soon as the mechanical voice fell, something like a cold operating table appeared next to Xu Ling.

Ok?
Physical transformation?

Xu Ling became nervous again.

Can't other people's systems be strengthened just like that?
What does this operating table mean?
However, before Xu Ling could continue to speculate, a pair of large mechanical hands appeared out of thin air and lifted Xu Ling up directly.

Immediately afterwards, a needle pierced Xu Ling's neck. He fainted without even making a sound of struggle.
