On the wedding day, in a historic university library in faraway England, a confident and radiant Chinese female student, upon hearing the news of Li Mu's marriage, had red eyes and cried for a long time.

More than a year has passed. Having experienced the hardships of life and learned the benefits of learning, she has worked particularly hard, and her abilities in all aspects have been rapidly improving. Compared with before going abroad, she has undergone a complete transformation.

But that man was already married.

After crying for a long time, she wiped away her tears, and all her emotions finally turned into a sigh.

She needs to work harder and become even more outstanding.

……

The following days passed peacefully, but as the two-year mark drew closer, Li Mu's heart gradually became restless.

Yang Tao had just gotten married a few months ago and was already showing signs of pregnancy. Was she really going to have to separate?

Although there will be opportunities to meet again in the future, I don't know when.

He had consulted the system, and according to the system's explanation, his appearance had changed the trajectory of the film and television world, and the world he was in now had developed into a new timeline.

Just as time seemed to stand still in the real world after he left it, it passed extremely slowly compared to the world of film and television.

The same applies to this world; after he leaves, time in this world will almost stand still relative to the real world.

Perhaps several years have passed in the real world, but only a few seconds have passed here.

If he has the opportunity to return to this world in the future, he can continue this timeline and live there, and Peach won't even be able to sense his departure.

However, the opportunity to return to the world of film and television is not something he, as a novice, can obtain now. According to the system's explanation, only by experiencing more worlds and reaching certain evaluation standards in the future can one gain this qualification.

Fortunately, it is somewhat comforting that even though he has lived for ten years in the real world, due to the huge difference in the flow of time, it may only be the time it takes Yang Tao in the film and television world to take a nap.

They don't feel it at all, nor do they have to bear the pain of parting.

Even so, Li Mu still sighed slightly, suddenly feeling a little sad, thinking that he should stop talking about love in the future.

His current condition is not suitable!

The deeper the feelings, the deeper the hurt when they break up. And no one else can feel it; he has to swallow all the bitterness alone.

That evening, Li Mu acted very gently.

Finally, after Taozi fell into a deep sleep, looking exhausted, Li Mu touched her snow-white skin and kissed her rosy cheeks again.

He took one last look, then quietly went to the study and sighed softly, "Let's go back!"

A flash of light appeared before my eyes, and my whole body instantly became ethereal, as if I had merged into the void and disappeared without a trace. In the blink of an eye, I was in a completely new world.

Chapter 97 Small Popularity Gathering Device

Around midnight, the entire city fell silent. The sky was filled with stars, like countless fireflies dancing in the air, so beautiful and dreamlike.

Li Mu opened his eyes and returned to reality. After spending two years in the movie world, he felt a little out of place.

He turned on the light, got out of bed, and thought of his thoroughly mastered Xingyi Kung Fu. With a thought, he was about to unleash a set of Dragon Form Fist.

Unfortunately, he didn't have any martial arts background in reality. He had never practiced horse stance or standing meditation since childhood, let alone the basic skills that needed to be learned before adulthood, such as stretching and bone setting.

Although he was mentally a master of Xingyi Quan, his body couldn't keep up, making his set of boxing techniques extremely awkward and full of mistakes.

It's not that I'm unaware of these mistakes, or that I don't know how to train; it's just that my body can't keep up with my brain, and I haven't developed muscle memory or conditioned reflexes.

In addition, their physical condition and basic skills are not up to par.

For example, in the world of movies and TV shows, he can easily do the splits, somersaults, and perform all sorts of difficult moves.

In the real world, if you've never stretched your legs or done any muscle training, trying to do a split will be so painful you won't be able to get out of bed for three days.

The same applies to somersaults. If your body hasn't undergone professional training, your waist is too stiff, and you lack flexibility, you might not be able to do a somersault and instead twist your waist.

Similarly, to master Xingyi Quan, one needs a good physical foundation, which requires practicing horse stance, squatting, stretching, and bone setting from a young age to lay a solid foundation for developing excellent skills in the future.

Li Mu's current problem is that his body in the real world has never practiced these basic skills since childhood. Actions that are very simple for him in the movie world are now very difficult for him to perform.

He had a lot of brainpower, but he couldn't put it to good use, so he became a pure theorist.

Li Mu was somewhat confused. Did he have to start from the basics and begin training again if he wanted to regain his skills?

How many years will that take!

……

Fortunately, there are system rewards; hopefully, I'll be lucky.

While thinking about it, I opened the system.

System: [Congratulations on completing the mission. Return to the main world.]

[Task Performance: Excellent]

[Task rewards are being calculated.]

[System: Select two items from the following options as mission rewards.]

【I. Basic Skills of Xingyi Quan】(This will not significantly improve physical fitness, but it can improve the body's foundation and basic skills, laying a good foundation for Xingyi Quan practice.)

II. Li Mu's Driving Skills

[III. 10 small crowd-gathering devices]

(This device can attract customers and bring quiet shops back to normal customer traffic levels. The number of small customer attraction devices needed to restore normal customer traffic depends on the size and type of shop.)

[IV. Physical Fitness Rewards] (The results of two years of training in the film and television world, partially projected into the real world...)

[V. Monetary Rewards] (Wealth from the film and television world, a very small portion of which can be converted into real-world currency.)

After reading the system message, Li Mu immediately selected the first option and claimed the first reward: "Basic Skills of Xingyi Quan".

The next moment, I felt a tingling sensation in my body, and then I felt nothing else.

He tried it out, and found that his strength had not increased, his reaction time had not become faster, his physique had not improved, and even his lung capacity had not changed significantly compared to before.

After consulting the system and learning more about the reward, I finally understood.

This reward will help the system improve his physical foundation, laying a good foundation for practicing Xingyi Quan, making his bones straight, his body upright, and his tendons flexible.

Improving previously developed bad habits, such as slouching, hunching, and bowlegs, can correct the body to its perfect state.

Some movements that were previously impossible can now be performed, and postures riddled with flaws can be corrected.

However, these are all internal adjustments made by the body.

It will not increase his strength, speed, or reaction time, nor will it improve his physical condition.

I used to be able to run several kilometers and do a certain number of push-ups, and I still can now.

Even so, Li Mu was satisfied. Being able to adjust his body to an excellent state and lay a good foundation for martial arts training made this reward absolutely worthwhile.

However, according to the reward description, the change will take time and won't be completed instantly. It will likely take about a week to complete the transformation.

During this period, he also needs to provide a lot of nutrients and energy through his diet for his body to consume.

It's a bit different from those systems that drastically change your body just by adding a few points. It actually requires you to obtain the energy and nutrients needed to transform your body through food. But I like this down-to-earth method.

After reviewing the system instructions, I learned that the real world, being the dominant world, has much stricter rules. Energy and matter absorbed in the film and television world are unlikely to enter or affect the real world. Only knowledge, skills, and memory can truly allow for unimpeded movement.

Therefore, to translate the training effects from the movie world into the real world, one needs to absorb a large amount of real-world substances and energy, which is diet.

Conversely, the real world, as the dominant world, can bring matter and energy into the film and television world without being restricted by its rules.

……

For his second reward, Li Mu didn't hesitate either, choosing the fourth reward: physical fitness (the results of two years of training in the film and television world, partially projected into the real world).

During the past two years, although he did many things inside, he devoted most of his energy and time to practicing martial arts and exercising.

The purpose is to obtain physical fitness rewards and project the effects of exercise into reality.

Now, my wish has finally come true.

Like the previous reward, translating the training results into the real world is not something that can be achieved instantly; it also takes about a week.

During this period, he needs to consume a large amount of food to provide the energy and nutrients required for the body's transformation.

Furthermore, the system also provides a small tip: the first reward, "Xingyiquan Basic Skills," and the fourth reward, "Physical Fitness Reward," can be combined to produce an effect greater than the sum of their parts.

After the transformation is completed in seven days, not only will Li Mu's physical foundation be stronger, but the improvement in his physical fitness will also be better than before.

Li Mu chose one and four, which was just right.

……

After selecting the two regular rewards, Li Mu remembered that he still had a special reward left over from the previous world, so he turned his attention to the third reward given by the system: "Small Popularity Gathering Device".

Function: This device can attract customers and bring low-traffic shops back to normal levels. The number of small customer attraction devices needed to restore normal foot traffic depends on the size and type of shop.

This reminded Li Mu of his coffee shop, which was doing very poorly. He wondered if using a small crowd-gathering device could boost the business to a normal level.

Could this be a benefit the system is giving me because it knows my coffee shop is losing money? Such a thought popped into Li Mu's mind!

After studying it for a while, I couldn't figure it out.

Its only function is to boost the popularity of stores with low foot traffic, bringing them back to a normal level. It has no effect on stores with normal or high foot traffic.

After studying it for a while, it seems that it really only works for shops with low foot traffic.

However, even with the usage restrictions, Li Mu was still very tempted by the reward's miraculous effects.
