After the darkness!

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Yijue slowly opened his eyes in a hazy state of consciousness.

He subconsciously wrinkled his nose; the air was filled with a sour, sweaty smell.

He was lying on the bed half-naked, with his socks still on.

The sky outside the window was already slightly bright, and cars drove by from time to time. If you listened carefully, you could also hear the beeping sound of the soy milk making machine in the neighbor's house.

"It's the second day again..."

Lin Yijue took a deep breath, supported himself on the bed with his right hand, straightened up, and then stretched.

Since discovering that the strange pain in his body would refresh the next day, he has been inexplicably in a good mood every time he wakes up.

More importantly...

He looked ahead, and his vision blurred as pale green saplings appeared.

Compared to before, the talent tree seems to have grown taller, and its branches and leaves have become even greener.

[Yun Sheng Boxing Technique: Minor Achievement (2%)]

"Talent Tree: Novice Boxer (Young Tree Stage)"

"Energy collection rate 26.4%, number of evolution attempts: 1, evolutionary path: insufficient information, unknown."

[Tree - Talented Boxer (White): A boxing prodigy. Possesses superhuman sense of distance and rhythm; his fighting instincts allow him to predict his opponent's movements within 0.3 seconds.]

[Leaf - Double Strike (White): After 5 consecutive normal attacks, the 6th attack will automatically trigger an additional strike, increasing its power by 30%.]

[Leaf - Superior Endurance (White): Increases base endurance by 50% and delays muscle fatigue threshold.]

Compared to the previous version, the information above includes an additional column:

Power: 7.2

Agility: 6.1

Physical condition: 5.5

Willpower: 6.8

"This is?"

Looking at the information above, Lin Yijue was extremely familiar with this section of information compared to the talent tree that had just appeared.

Isn't this just the properties panel?

"So last night's energy crystal: Strength (Small) directly boosted my strength and also materialized my personal attributes?"

His breathing was a little rapid.

Although there is no point allocation mode in the attribute bar, there is no doubt that this is definitely a good thing.

In fact, everyone has procrastination issues, and the main reason for procrastination is the inability to see short-term benefits.

Just like in high school, why do so many students give up after their second year? It's because no matter how hard they try, their grades are still terrible, they see no hope, and once they lose their motivation, it's hard to pick it up again.

If doing one more test paper, answering one more question, or memorizing one more classical Chinese text can translate into a few extra points on the college entrance exam, even if the extra points are small, it will definitely motivate people.

"I just don't know how this data will actually perform in reality."

Lin Yijue lowered his head and muttered to himself.

For example, his current strength is 7.2. If we convert that to a boxing strength test, how many kilograms would the impact of a punch reach?

We'll have to test this in the field to find out.

However, since he hadn't graduated from high school, he wasn't qualified to use the punching power testing machine and had to postpone it.

Regardless, looking at the skills, attributes, and a series of talents on the panel, he felt increasingly confident.

They're not even taking the upcoming college entrance exam seriously.

After all, even if he went to a vocational high school, he was confident that he could pass the martial arts exam and truly reach the next level.

This proves that so-called good vocational high schools are no worse than junior colleges!

Soon, in a good mood, Lin Yijue threw the sheets and duvet cover into the washing machine, then quickly took a shower, ate, and went to school.

As the college entrance examination approaches, physical education classes are decreasing while academic exams are increasing.

On that day, the school held a mock exam all day long.

Lin Yijue did it very seriously.

After more than a week of review, with the systematic learning methods from his previous life, he had basically absorbed most of the original owner's learning memories, and even made considerable progress.

It can be said that he has become very brave and is no longer the Lin Yijue of yesteryear.

Throughout the day of exams, he adhered to the principle of mastering the basics, doing his best on the advanced questions, and not even glancing at the difficult ones. Even for the most difficult electronics theory, he managed to spend half an hour checking his work at the end.

Lin Yijue calculated that although he only did 100 points of questions, if he was lucky, he could get at least 85 points, which was much higher than his usual score of 50 or 60.

This is still the worst course.

"I might be able to get into a junior college just by relying on my academic subjects."

He was full of confidence after finishing his last history exam.

Back home, Lin Yijue didn't use all his energy to practice the "Yunsheng Boxing Technique," but instead practiced the "Eighteen Forms" four times as usual.

After all, the former is not only related to physical fitness tests, but also a key part of martial arts assessments, as it can comprehensively train muscles and increase four-dimensional attributes.

Perhaps due to his minor mastery of Yun Sheng's boxing skills, his "Eighteen Forms" have also made considerable progress.

Originally, he could only practice up to the twelfth move - the Monkey Breathing Technique - in one go.

However, at this moment, he actually launched into the thirteenth move, White Crane Spreads Wings, in one go.

"Practice until your body resembles a crane, and you can read two volumes of scriptures beneath a thousand pine trees."

As the Guiwu style came to an end, Lin Yijue felt the warm sensation between his ribs becoming increasingly clear in the room. He couldn't help but clench his fist and sighed excitedly in his heart.

The basics of the eighteen styles are just five steps away.

Compared to the original owner's initial six-style achievement, in just over a week, she rapidly advanced to seven styles.

This level of skill (18 techniques) is enough for him to score 150 points in the college entrance examination, and he could get 110 points.

He was already in the top ten in the class.

After a short rest, I started practicing Yun Sheng Boxing.

Lin Yijue didn't train too hard today. He only practiced to the point of developing his own strange illness and just entered the stage of being bitten by insects. He then washed up and went to bed to rest.

After getting into bed, he roughly organized his plans for tomorrow, stopped thinking about it, turned off the light, closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and went to sleep.

Just as he lay down, Lin Yijue inexplicably thought of the couple he had encountered at the bubble tea shop yesterday.

The content of the other person's conversation appeared in his mind with almost perfect clarity.

"I was so tired from practicing yesterday, and I had a whole day of exams today, I almost forgot about this place."

Lin Yijue remembered that he had just bought some pork in the refrigerator at home, and he was no longer sleepy. He turned over, put on his clothes, and went to the kitchen.

A dozen minutes later...

"I can actually feel it... just not as strongly..."

Lin Yijue looked at the white pork on the table, his gaze falling on the white, greasy fat and pink marbling, his throat bobbing slightly.

Although I'm very reluctant to admit it, I have to.

Without exercise, the strange disease did not occur.

But the feeling of hunger in the body appeared immediately.

His stomach was churning, and an extremely strong appetite was emanating from every cell and muscle in his body.

He stared blankly at the scene before him, a nameless chill rising in his heart.

How could this happen?

My good mood for the whole day vanished instantly.
