I will eventually become a god through sheer hard work.

Summary:

From "running" to "divine speed" that defies physics.

From "aiming" to "sure hit" that transcends cause and effect.

From "health preservation" to "longevity" that allows one to remain in the world for a long time.

From "fitness" to the "transformation into a dragon" of flesh and blood.

Having been reborn, Xue Jing has a small goal after obtaining a panel that allows him to infinitely farm skills.

In this dangerous world filled with martial artists, gifted individuals, and cyborgs, he, with only his mortal body, became a god above all others—a true god among men.

Chapter 1 Running and Charm

On the spacious playground, eight high school boys in sportswear were running on the synthetic track.

This is a physical fitness test for men's 1000-meter run.

For some reason, even though it was just a physical fitness test for one class, there were quite a few students around the track on the playground.

Especially girls.

They were wearing short skirts that made it difficult to move around, clearly not there for a physical education class; their eyes were fixed on the male student who was far ahead on the track.

As the male student crossed the finish line, the physical education teacher precisely pressed the stopwatch in his hand.

"Xue Jing, 2 minutes 36.79 seconds."

The PE teacher announced the scores with some disbelief, and the student in charge of recording them was also stunned for a moment before picking up a pen and writing down the scores in his notebook.

Xue Jing slowly stopped, slightly out of breath.

He ignored the faint commotion of girls nearby and instead looked at the semi-transparent panel in front of him that only he could see.

[Complete the 1000-meter physical fitness test, running experience +20]

[Running Lv3 (258/800)]

'It rose by 20 points, which is more than usual...'

Then he looked at another skill on the panel.

【Charm LV2 (89/500)】

[Someone has developed feelings for you; Charm skill experience +1]

[Someone has developed feelings for you; Charm skill experience +1]

[Someone has developed feelings for you; Charm skill experience +1]

Someone is towards you...

Amidst a barrage of notifications, "Charm" increased by 1 at a visible rate, quickly reaching (151/500). Although the speed slowed down, it still increased by 1 every now and then.

'This useless, arrogant skill is improving at a rapid pace,' Xue Jing said with a hint of helplessness.

He looked at all the skills on his panel.

[Fitness Lv2 (158/500)]

【Health Preservation Lv1 (199/300)】

【Cooking Skill Lv2 (257/500)】

[Running Lv3 (258/800)]

【Charm Technique Lv2 (153/500)】

'This is what I've accomplished this month.' A faint sense of satisfaction welled up in Xue Jing's heart.

He is a time traveler.

A month ago, he inexplicably arrived in this world that was similar to but not quite the same as his previous life on Earth, becoming a high school senior named Xue Jing and inheriting the memories of his predecessor.

And what came with the journey was this semi-transparent panel in front of him.

Xue Jing called it the skill panel.

Once you've mastered something to a certain extent, the corresponding skill will be activated on the panel.

Subsequently, as long as you continue to practice this skill, you will gain experience and your mastery and understanding of the skill will improve accordingly.

As long as you practice, your skills will improve; your efforts will be rewarded and won't be in vain.

For example, with the "Running" skill, after activating it half a month ago, he only needed half a month to upgrade it to Lv3, and his time improved from 3 minutes and 42 seconds to 2 minutes and 36 seconds for 1000 meters.

It's impossible to make such progress without much effort or professional guidance.

But thanks to the extraordinary nature of his skill panel, he accomplished it with ease.

Furthermore, the improvement in his "Running" level not only enhanced his understanding and speed of running, but also significantly improved his physical fitness.

'Is this the joy of cheating?'

Xue Jing sighed.

At that moment, another male student crossed the finish line.

"Li Ge, 3 minutes 22.17 seconds."

The PE teacher pressed the stopwatch.

This is a very good result for a high school student, but with Xue Jing's outstanding performance as a precedent, the physical education teacher remained calm and unperturbed.

Li Ge, panting, slowed his pace and walked slowly to Xue Jing's side. He placed one hand on his knee and the other on Xue Jing's shoulder, speaking haltingly:

"I demand you take a urine test immediately... You're on drugs, aren't you? How could you run so fast..."

Xue Jing smiled and was about to reply when he saw several female students in school uniforms arguing loudly by the track.

Then, a pretty girl with delicate features and a slender figure walked towards Xue Jing with a slightly flushed face.

She held a stack of clean white towels in her hands, and her two slender, white legs under her short skirt were so white in the midday sun that they almost reflected light.

Li Ge noticed this scene at this moment, said nothing, silently withdrew his hand from Xue Jing's shoulder, and walked a distance to the side.

As he walked, he shook his head and muttered, "Useless effort."

The stars in our elite class are so high that even the girls in our own class can't reach them, let alone you girls.

The female student holding the towel obviously couldn't hear his mutterings. She walked shyly to Xue Jing, looked up at his face, and mustered her courage to speak:

"Senior, wipe your sweat."

Xue Jing glanced around, hesitated for a moment, then took the towel and said, "Thank you."

Seemingly not expecting Xue Jing to actually accept it, the girl paused for a moment, a blush rising to her face: "No...you're welcome."

After saying that, she immediately turned around and jogged back to her friend, her steps light and cheerful.

As soon as she got back, her friends started teasing her loudly. Apparently, one of them said something embarrassing, and the girl couldn't help but chase after her and hit her a few times. During the process, she also secretly glanced at Xue Jing a few times, thinking she was being discreet.

Xue Jing's classmates, who were in PE class at the time, all saw this scene and shook their heads and smiled. Some of the female classmates even clicked their tongues, seemingly with some disdain.

Xue Jing wiped the little sweat from his forehead with a towel. He wondered if it was just his imagination or because the towel had been held in the junior's arms for too long, and it seemed to have a fragrance on it.

[Someone has developed a strong liking for you; Charm skill experience +45]

Li Ge stepped forward, stroking his chin curiously, and said, "Strange, you didn't refuse. Could it be that you've finally come to your senses?"

"Hey, I'm not saying this to be mean, but we shouldn't let good things go to outsiders. If you really want it, our class..."

Xue Jing shook his head and interrupted, "I don't want to."

"Then why?" Li Ge asked.

Xue Jing twirled the towel in his hand like a basketball with one finger and casually said, "It takes a lot of courage to come and give a towel in front of so many people. If I refuse, people with slightly thin skin will probably be traumatized."

After a pause, Xue Jing continued, "If she really has that intention later, I'll just refuse her when she comes to see me alone."

Li Ge shook his head and sighed, "You even considered this. You're as mature as a corporate slave... It's because of you that these female students keep coming over even though they know there's no hope."

"You should just pick someone in the class to date once and for all, and that will make everyone else give up on the idea."

"We boys at Qingcheng Affiliated High School have suffered under your wrath for so long, Xue Laozei! The female students are widowed because of you, and the male students are starving too. Aren't you afraid that we'll all unite and launch a dark duel against you?"

Xue Jing glanced at the charm technique on the panel.

【Lv2 (209/500)】

He closed the panel, reached out and patted Li Ge on the shoulder: "I'll be counting on you to protect me then, my good brother."

Li Ge quickly waved his hand: "There's no need for that."

Chapter 2 The Death of God

Qingcheng Affiliated High School.

Its full name is Qingcheng University Affiliated High School.

As the affiliated high school of a top university in the outer ring, Qingfu High School is also a top-ranked key high school in the outer ring. The students who can study here are basically all excellent.

"...After that, the administrative regions of our Zhuxia were reorganized..."

The geography teacher on the podium spoke while writing on the teaching board.

Unlike Xue Jing's previous life, this planet called Earth, although the national powers can be roughly matched, many things are completely different.

The biggest difference is that at the end of the nineteenth century, an event occurred that affected the entire world and is now known as the 'Death of God'.

Because of that event, the Gregorian calendar, which uses the birth of Jesus as the starting year, officially ended, and the 'New Age', which uses the year following God's death as the starting year, became the new calendar. The history before God's death was called the 'Old Age' or 'Old Era'.

Now, it is the 267th year of the new era.
