Chapter

Dragon Country, Beijiang City.

Beijiang First Middle School's sports field.

Thousands of students are gathered here, looking up at a short, rotund boy, with a face full of acne, on the stage. He holds up his right hand, his face flushed with excitement, his neck thickened with tension.

"...I will definitely get into the Holy Martial Warrior Academy!"

"I will definitely get into the Holy Martial Warrior Academy!"

"I will definitely get into the Holy Martial Warrior Academy!"

"..."

From below the stage, Lu Sheng watches everything quietly, sighing softly in his heart.

He'd never imagined that this globally digitalized, gamified world would have the equivalent of a "Hundred Days Vow Rally," just like back in his original world of Blue Star.

He is a crosser - a being from another world.

Three years ago, he crossed into this world, remarkably similar to his original Blue Star.

But in contrast to Blue Star, this world was ushering in a new era, where games descended upon the populace, everyone was digitalized, and everyone underwent a job change.

Here, not only were ferocious beasts, copies, and secret territories continuously popping up in the wild, but everyone also had a set of attribute panels. They even underwent a job change once they turned eighteen to decide their future professions.

School still exists in this world.

However, the subjects they studied in school changed from language arts, math, and foreign languages to classes like "Beast Compendium" and "Professional Skills Explanation."

Upon the conclusion of senior year, everyone has to participate in the college entrance examination, which will determine whether they will advance into higher education institutes, become an ordinary individual due to failure, or roam as a wilderness hunter.

The college entrance examination in this world is just as vital.

Hence, when there are merely a hundred days left till the college entrance examination, the school organized this "hundred-day pledge meeting". Each class representative went on stage to announce their goal universities.

While this approach undeniably excites all students, to Lu Shen, who has lived two lives, it's so awkward that he nearly cringes.

Just then, a prompt sounded in his mind:

"Ding - You have a new task to accept. Please check."

Another cheat code triggered?

Lu Shen raised his eyebrows and opened the task panel in his attribute menu. A row of text that could only be visible to him was gradually surfacing.

"Current available tasks—

1. Interrupt the speech of the student on stage, and shout out loud: You can't pass!

After completion, you can receive the reward: Steel Broom.

Steel Broom

Common Item

: A broom made of steel. Though it cannot be used as a weapon, frequent use may help you develop a Qilin Arm—or perhaps shoulder periarthritis?

2. Stay silent and applaud this student.

After completion, you can receive the reward: Charm +1"

Another insignificant reward, huh...

Lu Sheng was feeling quite amused.

This was his cheat point - the task system he'd acquired ever since he crossed over into this new world. The task panel could randomly give him two or three tasks for him to choose from at any time.

Upon completion, he'd be rewarded.

These tasks were not too difficult, and the rewards varied greatly.

From attribute points, to charm points, cash, equipment, and even useless items like a broom made of steel - he could get anything!

Thanks to the task system, he had gained nearly fifty charm points, gradually making him the school's heartthrob in Beijiang City.

Besides, the occasional cash rewards from tasks also ensured that he lived a comfortable life in this world, despite being an orphan.

The rewards for the current task were nothing special, so without a second thought, Lu Sheng chose to take the second task.

Well, honestly, it's not that I want to be more handsome; I just don't want to discourage the enthusiasm of the student speaking on the stage.

After the male student on the stage finished his oath, Lu Sheng, along with the other students, applauded, completing the task "Charm +1" was bestowed upon him as a reward.

The male student, panting heavily, took a bow to the audience below the stage and stepped down, giving way to the representative of the next class to make their speech.

Standing beside Lu Sheng was a tall, bear-like boy.

He was one of the closest buddies to Lu Sheng in the class, named Gou Sheng. He was a Level13 Shield Warrior.

Upon seeing the representative from the next class about to make her speech, he excitedly tugged on Lu Sheng's clothes, "Old Lu, look! The next one to go on stage is my goddess—Qiu He!"

"Although my goddess was born in an average family and is not exactly a rich beauty, she is acknowledged as a goddess of the public in our high school!"

"Normally, she wears a smile whenever she talks, her eyes, squinting as if she could talk with them. A single glance at her just melts my heart... Huh?"

Gou Sheng looked at Lu Sheng, and his eyes suddenly froze. With a look of suspicion, he asked, "Old Lu, why do I feel like you've become even handsomer?"

Lu Sheng, with a nonchalant expression, not blushing at all,apathetically replied, "I'm getting handsomer each day, this is quite normal, isn't it?"

"Indeed..." Gou Sheng nodded, seemingly convinced, and retorted, "You're asking for a beating."

After all, this was how Lu Sheng was. Starting from the first year of high school he was just a seven-points handsome guy, yet in a short period of two years, his looks, figure, and charm have significantly developed. No girl who saw him was not conquered by his denim jeans.

This was something that everyone envied but could not emulate.

How could Gou Sheng understand that this was the result of Lu Sheng's ever-increasing charm?

At this moment, a pretty schoolgirl in a neat school uniform stepped onto the stage.

The girl was bare-faced, with a high ponytail. She was not elegantly pretty but her face was full of collagen and her pure aura absolutely conformed to eighty percent of the teenage boys' fantasy of first love in school.

"Quickly look, Old Lu, this is my goddess Qiu He!"

Upon seeing Qiu He, Gou Sheng immediately became like Tom at the sight of a little white mouse, his eyes could not be moved away.

Lu Sheng glanced at the girl on the stage and did not have much emotional fluctuation. The love letters he received every day could overflow from his desk drawer, and among the girls who wrote love letters to him, there were no shortage of those prettier than Qiu He.

So, he didn’t have any interest in Gou Sheng's goddess. He just wanted to quickly finish this Hundred-Day Pledge Conference, so he could have time to level up and prepare for the university entrance exam.

Qiu He was the dream goddess of not a small number of people in the school.

When she stepped onto the stage, the "Cringers" below couldn't wait to slap their hands until they were bruised, all to give Qiu He a round of applause.

Qiu He seemed to be lost in thoughts and didn't pay much attention to the clapping around her.

She scanned the audience after taking the stage until her eyes fell on Lu Sheng, who seemed to radiate in the crowd, and then a smile blossomed on her face.

"Hello everyone," she began, her eyes never leaving Lu Sheng's as she lifted the mic, "I am the representative of Class 18, Qiu He."

"I am fortunate to have been chosen to stand here on this rooftop to deliver my pledge for our hundred-day pledge assembly."

"What I want to say is…"

She paused, her cheeks growing redder.

Her appearance sent the hearts of the besotted boys fluttering, their minds filled with echoes of ‘kawaii’.

Qiu He stayed silent for a full three seconds, before clenching her fist, gathering her courage, and shouting, "Lu Sheng, I like you!"

"I want to ask you — will you let me be your girlfriend?"
