Lu Mingfei, why are you slaying dragons if you're not involved!

Chapter 64 Chinese Language Arts Level 1!

The afternoon sun was already slanting, casting patches of light through the window and between the desks.

Everything was quiet. Most of the students who were too lazy to go home and chose to stay in the classroom were asleep. Senior year of high school is a time of pure sleepiness. They often wake up suddenly after falling asleep and only then realize what they've done. They can lie down for most of the time during short breaks, not to mention lunch break.

But one man and one woman were not asleep.

Logically speaking, if they're not asleep at this time, they can only be doing something shameless... It's normal for them to be just beginning to experience romantic feelings, but their behavior of showing off their affection is a bit inappropriate.

But what these two did went far beyond just being wicked—they were studying!

One was hunched over his desk, engrossed in writing, while the other sat upright, reading a book.

It was Lu Mingfei and Ling.

Lu Mingfei was unaware of the egregious nature of his actions; when he was focused on studying, he wouldn't notice anything else.

Apart from--

[Through diligent study, your [Chinese] level has improved, gaining 2 proficiency points.]

If they weren't in the classroom, Lu Mingfei probably would have jumped up and wiggled his butt.

at last!

A large number of semi-transparent characters appeared out of thin air before his eyes.

Congratulations! Through your hard work, your [Chinese Language] level has been raised to LV1.

You have obtained the entry "Words Become Law - Level 1"!

[Entry: Words Become Law - Level 1]

Effect: You can choose and comprehend the true meaning of specific words. After successfully comprehending them, you can temporarily gain the ability to influence things related to those words by uttering their true meaning.

This action will consume a great deal of mental and physical energy, depending on the scope and intensity of its impact; please use it with extreme caution.

The currently available text option is "fire".

[Unless scheduled for sleep, one cannot engage in contemplation/insight]

Lu Mingfei is already out of service.

"They're not even going to act anymore..."

he thought.

At first, the schedule was somewhat deceptive, with things like "physical recovery" and "super-speed calculation" still within the range of normal humans. There are always people with special physical constitutions or outrageous talents who can achieve it.

But with the [Explosive Sprint] and the current [Words Become Law]... he can hardly say whether he can still be considered human.

I wasn't prepared at all, so how did I get expelled from the community?
"But this is good, at least we won't have any problem blending in with the hybrids!"

Lu Mingfei was deep in thought.

"As for the true meaning of these words..."

He shivered.

Not right.

Something is definitely not right!

Having been electrocuted for five days, Lu Mingfei believed he had gained some understanding of the schedule.

Five words—utterly insidious!
Some people might ask, isn't this four characters?

Hey, you said "four," right? Great, you agree!

In Lu Mingfei's understanding, a schedule was about this insidious.

In short, Lu Mingfei believes that the way to understand the true meaning of these words, which can only be grasped during non-sleep time, must be particularly outrageous.

It's even possible that, just like when the Tai Chi rewards were distributed last time, a "Senior Brother Chu" was directly assigned to provide practical training!

"But it looks really strong..."

Lu Mingfei sighed, feeling a sense of melancholy, like someone who "knows there are tigers in the mountains" but still insists on going into those "mountains he knows are dangerous."

Even ignoring the long list of explanatory text and restrictions, just looking at the entry name, it is terrifyingly powerful!
The power to make one's words come true—isn't that an ability only gods and immortals should possess?

Lu Mingfei thought of the Word Spirit: Monarch Flame that his senior brother Chu had released. It seemed that such a supernatural ability also required "incantation" before it could be used. Thinking about it this way, it was quite similar to his own ability to make words come true.

I just don't know... which one is stronger?
Soothing music played over the loudspeaker, signaling the end of lunch break.

The first class of the afternoon, which is also the last class of the day, has begun.

"That's all for today's class. Remember to finish the worksheets we handed out; we'll go over them tomorrow..."

When the bell rang, the students began to pack up their things one after another.

Lu Mingfei had already quietly given the key to Ling. He wouldn't be home until at least 10 p.m., and Ling couldn't accompany him to those events, so of course he gave it to her first so she could move her things in.

I can just ask Ling to open the door when I get home. Uncle Chen gave me a spare key, and he even prepared three sets. I can just take one more key later.

He dared not give this out openly; otherwise, if others found out, the Shilan Middle School forum would probably be full of gossip posts.
He quickly packed his things and noticed that Liu Miaomiao was looking back at him, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

"See you tonight."

Lu Mingfei realized what was happening, grinned, and leaned closer, whispering something.

"Ah."

Liu Miaomiao's previously uneasy heart was now completely at ease, and she was even a little happy.

Her eyes glanced at Ling subtly out of the corner of her eye. Ling remained seated expressionless, packing her things, but showed no intention of leaving with Lu Mingfei.

Throughout the day, Liu Miaomiao didn't hear Lu Mingfei and Ling speak to each other, so it seems there's nothing between them? Someone on the campus forum did post a picture of Lu Mingfei and Ling sitting and eating together, but it's said they only exchanged a few words.

No problem, the advantage is in my hands!
Should I take you there?

Liu Miaomiao knew that Lu Mingfei was going to the Qingning Basketball Gymnasium.

"No need, I'm so confused from studying all day, I'll just go for a run to loosen up my brain."

Lu Mingfei shook his head and casually threw out another piece of trash.

After finishing his studies, he became less attentive to his learning and reverted to his "laissez-faire" personality. Chemistry was still a long way from advancing, and he knew he couldn't do it today, so naturally he wasn't in a hurry.

He slung his backpack over his shoulder, waved lightly, and said, "Let's go!"

Liu Miaomiao sighed. She changed her mind and decided not to send Aunt Shanshan away later, but to talk to Aunt Shanshan directly instead.

It's always better to have a knowledgeable and experienced helper make decisions together than to make decisions alone. Aunt Shan is so beautiful and has seen so much of the world, she must know how to handle this situation!

……

The winter sun shone on Lu Mingfei, warm and cozy, while the still lush and green leaves swayed gently.

This is winter in the South. If it weren't for the chilly temperature and everyone wearing winter clothes, you would almost think it was still the height of summer.

Lu Mingfei continued running, and without having to focus on memorizing formulas, running had become relatively easy for him. Although the system still assigned him a "cardiovascular limit" speed based on his physical condition, he was no longer as breathless as he had been at the beginning.

Compared to sitting and studying for most of the day, this is definitely relaxing!

He quickly arrived at the Qingning Basketball Hall, went inside, changed his clothes as if he knew the way well, picked up a basketball along the way, and went to the indoor basketball court where the "bang bang" sounds of basketballs hitting each other could be heard.

"The sound of basketballs is much more frequent today than when Senior Brother Chu is alone... Are people from Kassel College playing basketball with Senior Brother?"

Lu Mingfei pushed open the door.

There were only two people on the basketball court: Chu Zihang and a handsome man with sharp eyebrows, not much older than them. They were shooting when Lu Mingfei pushed open the door.

Two basketballs were released one after the other, their trajectory overlapping as they traced different arcs in the air. In the interplay of light and shadow, the basketballs, which should have both gone straight into the hoop, collided, their paths altered, and one of them flew straight towards Lu Mingfei's face!

Lu Mingfei didn't have time to think much.

Since obtaining the entry, he had unconsciously used the combinations and usage methods he had mentally constructed countless times in his spare time.

[Force Analysis], [High-Speed ​​Calculation], [Precise Hit], activate!

The vectors appeared, and since the vectors of just two basketballs were not many, Lu Mingfei completed the calculation in the blink of an eye with the help of super-speed computing.

What happens next is simple.

Within ten meters, he hits the bullseye every time!

Lu Mingfei threw the basketball with tremendous force, almost smashing it!

The basketball flew out and struck the "face-attacker" precisely. With a loud bang, the "face-attacker" was thrown high into the air, its direction reversed, and it flew towards the basket.

If that were all, it could be considered a coincidence, but after Lu Mingfei's basketball changed trajectory, it went straight towards another basketball.

After the two collided at an extremely clever angle, Lu Mingfei's basketball bounced back to him, while the other one precisely found Chu Zihang's position!

In that instant, all three basketballs seemed to come alive.

But Lu Mingfei knew it wasn't basketball that had worked its magic.

It's all just physics, math, and a tiny bit of "precision"!
