Brush Up Your Proficiency

#221 - Advanced reading skills

When the morning sun shone through the window and onto his face, Wang Hao slowly opened his eyes.

He stretched languidly, feeling an unprecedented sense of comfort.

It was as if every cell in his body was filled with vitality, and the mental energy in his mind had become incomparably abundant.

The feeling of exhaustion and depletion of mental energy from yesterday had vanished without a trace, replaced by an unspeakable ease and joy. Moreover, Wang Hao felt that his mental energy was now much stronger than before.

This discovery made Wang Hao nod with satisfaction. He thought, "I didn't expect that last night's reading not only restored my mental energy to its peak but also raised the upper limit a bit. This sleep was really worth it."

After experiencing his current state, Wang Hao remembered that last night was his final push before his Reading skill leveled up, and he couldn't wait to confirm his guess.

Immediately, he quickly summoned his cheat and began to carefully examine the prompt information from last night.

Sure enough, as he expected, the cheat showed that after reading "Lao Tzu and Zhuang Tzu" last night, he had gained insight bonuses as usual and successfully completed that final push!

"Congratulations, you have gained insight bonuses from reading ancient books, Intermediate Reading proficiency +25, current proficiency: Intermediate Reading 1000/1000."

Seeing this prompt, Wang Hao couldn't help but feel delighted. His Reading skill had successfully reached the full progress of 1000/1000, something he couldn't have imagined before, when reading for an hour only yielded a few proficiency points.

However, the next prompt he checked made him fall into deep thought.

"Congratulations, your Intermediate Reading skill proficiency has reached its maximum value. Do you want to upgrade?"

Faced with this question, Wang Hao did not make a decision immediately.

Although he knew that he would have to make an upgrade decision sooner or later, after all, he had been working day and night for this goal during this period,

he couldn't help but stop. If he made a decision so rashly, he felt like something was missing.

"I should do some preparatory work before confirming the upgrade!" Wang Hao couldn't help but think.

Immediately, he seemed to be amused by his own idea and couldn't help but think: "It must be because I've been with Cheng Yufei and the others for too long that I've started thinking about having some sense of ritual! If this were in the past, a rough guy like me wouldn't be so particular! I would have just confirmed it directly!"

Wang Hao shook his head slightly, somewhat amused that he would have such thoughts.

However, since he had already made this decision, Wang Hao naturally wouldn't deliberately change it. After all, people always change, especially himself. The changes during this period have been too great, and this little change doesn't matter.

So, he decided to get up first and wash up properly to welcome this important moment in the most sober state.

"Old brother, you seem to have gotten up a bit late today." As soon as he came out, Wang Hao heard his sister's voice.

At this time, Wang Lan was slightly raising her eyebrows, signaling Wang Hao to look in the direction of the dining table. At this time, breakfast for the two of them had already been set on the dining table.

After getting up early, Wang Lan saw that her brother hadn't gotten up yet. Thinking that he must have been too tired last night, she didn't disturb him.

Instead, she went to the kitchen to make some breakfast for the two of them. She had just finished and was about to knock on Wang Hao's door when she saw her brother's door suddenly open, and then he began to wink and ask for credit.

As soon as Wang Hao came out, he saw his sister standing at his door holding an egg, indicating that she had already prepared breakfast, looking very mischievous.

"Rare, our Xiao Lan also knows how to care for people. Not bad, there's progress!" Wang Hao said with a smile on his face, looking at his playful sister.

Before Wang Lan could reply, he continued, "You eat first. I have something to do later. I'll eat later." Then, he hurried to the bathroom.

Wang Lan looked at her brother who was in such a hurry as soon as he got up, feeling puzzled in her heart. "Is he in such a hurry to go to the toilet? And why does he feel so mysterious?"

Then, she returned to the dining table and started eating quickly, today is the last day of the three-subject exam, and she can't be late.

Wang Hao walked into the bathroom, enjoying the comfort of the hot water washing over his body while thinking about the possible benefits of upgrading the Reading skill.

After all, when he upgraded before, there were always some minor situations, such as the intrusion of a large amount of information and a large amount of insights, which caused Wang Hao to experience some dizziness.

And the difficulty of improving the Reading skill is more difficult than the previous two skills, and the reaction after upgrading may be relatively large.

The reason why the Reading skill has been able to improve to this level in such a short period of time is largely due to his luck.

If he hadn't accidentally obtained the ancient book "Lao Tzu and Zhuang Tzu", it would be impossible to improve the Reading skill to its current level unless he did nothing and read 24 hours a day to achieve the current results.

He can't belittle the difficulty and importance of the Reading skill because of luck. After all, being able to make someone who doesn't like to read unable to sleep without reading every day is a capability that countless people dream of!

After taking a shower, Wang Hao changed into neat clothes, greeted his sister who was eating, and returned to the room, took a deep breath, cheered himself up, and gently moved his body to warm it up.

Then, he walked to the window and solemnly bowed three times to the sky outside the window.

He didn't know which gods or Buddhas he should worship for this metaphysics, so he could only follow the principle of proximity and worship the God of Heaven that everyone talks about.

While bowing, Wang Hao muttered something like last time, although he himself didn't know what he was saying, but the thoughts in his heart were mainly about praying.

He hoped to give himself a powerful skill, such as a clone technique, that would be even better!

After completing this set of metaphysical processes, Wang Hao looked up at the sky, his eyes revealing a trace of expectation and longing. He couldn't help but recall the scene when he obtained the Reading skill last time.

At that time, he was full of curiosity and doubt about this Reading skill, and he had no idea what its purpose was. If it wasn't because upgrading it to a high level could unlock new skills, Wang Hao would have stopped grinding this skill proficiency long ago.

Although it may be a bit difficult to figure out at first, the final effect will definitely give him a surprise.

Now that his mental state, physical state, and psychological state have all been adjusted, Wang Hao took a deep breath, and then looked at the cheat prompt that said "Do you want to upgrade?"

He silently said "Upgrade" in his heart!

As these two words appeared, the cheat's prompt also appeared as expected:

"Congratulations, your Intermediate Reading skill has been upgraded to Advanced Reading skill!"
