[Please ensure that the host maintains a happy body and mind, acts leisurely, and lives a joyful life! Do not be impatient, and don\'t let yourself be too busy or too tired, as working yourself to exhaustion is not good for you. Remember! Engaging in more leisurely activities will make you stronger!]
…
The string of optional leisure tasks left Xiang Beifei dumbfounded.
Elective tasks meant these tasks could be done or not, depending on his mood!
He had seen various bizarre systems before—the Eating Dirt System, Hair Loss System, Bootlicker System, Backup Snatch System… but these systems were just a speck of dust in front of this old man\'s Leisure System!
Just by cracking sunflower seeds and counting students walking by, he could complete all his tasks, and even becoming stronger by watching a TV show or taking a walk!
The scariest part was that this old man raised his cultivation to the late stage of Meridian Opening just by lazing around!
"It shows how important it is to awaken a good system."
Xiang Beifei couldn\'t help but sigh.
While others were tirelessly working on their system tasks, this old man just lay in a lounge chair, squinted his eyes, napped like a salted fish.
Then you look back, and he\'s even stronger than you!
Comparing yourself with others can be maddening!
Honestly, Xiang Beifei really wanted this Leisure System for himself—who doesn\'t like to relax?
He finally understood why this old man, despite his high cultivation, was content with just guarding the school gate. Why strive for more when you have such a system?
Didn\'t you see what the system said? Engaging in more leisurely activities will make you stronger!
"Seventy-five."
Elder Luo casually spit out a sunflower seed husk and counted Xiang Beifei as he approached.
"Hello," Xiang Beifei greeted politely.
"Freshman?"
Elder Luo cracked another sunflower seed as the system showed he had now eaten 95 seeds.
"Is it that obvious?" Xiang Beifei asked.
"No upperclassman would greet me so politely."
Elder Luo stretched his back, and Xiang Beifei noticed that Elder Luo had chosen the [Chat for an Hour] daily task, intending to casually include chatting with Xiang Beifei as part of this task.
Xiang Beifei nodded, "Yes, I wanted to ask how to get to the Dashang Building?"
Elder Luo scrutinized Xiang Beifei and, stroking his chin, said, "I seem to have an impression of you."
"Really?" Xiang Beifei was puzzled.
"Oh right, you are the top scorer of the initial assessment!"
Elder Luo sat up from the lounge chair, his lean face lighting up with excitement!
"How could you tell?"
"Your photograph is in the Liangzhou University gossip forum; it\'s there in your college entrance data!"
Elder Luo seemed invigorated, wiped his greasy hands on the lounge chair, then took out an old model large-screen cell phone, made a few swipes, and pulled up the photograph of Xiang Beifei applying for universities, not just that, but also various photographs from Luhe High School activities.
Graduation photos, athletic meets, student clubs, and other group photos—some didn\'t even have Xiang Beifei as the main subject, he was just incidentally in the background; yet those backgrounds were meticulously cropped out.
It was probably some of his classmates who posted it on social media. In this era, there\'s no such thing as online privacy. If you want to find something, it\'s easy to get your hands on it.
"Now the whole school knows you. You\'re a celebrity!" Elder Luo said happily, like an old man who loves gossiping about others.
Wrong, he was here to gossip about the top scorer exactly. Xiang Beifei saw that he had chosen the "Gather Gossip" daily task.
"Fine then."
Xiang Beifei was mentally prepared for this, and he could accept that everyone knew him.
"Let\'s go, I\'ll take you to the assessment site!"
Elder Luo stood up, having chosen the "Stroll Quest." He enthusiastically led Xiang Beifei to their destination, managing to do the "Casual Chat Quest," the "Gather Gossip Quest," and the "Stroll Quest" all at once—a real bargain!
Xiang Beifei didn\'t refuse. Although the man was doing it for the tasks, he was also helping him find his way. As long as he could see the other\'s system tasks, Xiang Beifei could roughly determine if the other had any malice.
"By the way, I need to stop by Dashang Building first. I have a friend waiting for me there," Xiang Beifei added.
"Sure thing, sure thing."
Elder Luo, while munching on sunflower seeds, looked at Xiang Beifei and offered him some seeds, asking, "Want some?"
"No thanks."
"Do you realize the situation you\'re in now? Many students at Liangzhou University have a bone to pick with you—no, they\'re openly hostile! You better be careful; everyone here is a genius, and no one yields to anyone. They will cause trouble for you!" Elder Luo chuckled.
"Is that so?" Xiang Beifei nodded.
"You don\'t seem to care much?" Elder Luo watched Xiang Beifei with enthusiasm.
"What else? Do you have any good suggestions?" Xiang Beifei asked.
"Beat them up! What kind of question is that! If they don\'t comply, just beat them into submission, haha!"
Elder Luo burst into laughter and said, "The Martial Arts College and the Liberal Arts College at a prestigious university are different. People in the Liberal Arts College reason things out, valuing both EQ and IQ, and don\'t have much aggression. But with the geniuses from the Martial Arts College, the best method isn\'t to reason with them but to talk with your fists!"
In the Liberal Arts College, students usually don\'t get involved in fights. Their awakened systems are used to enhance their IQ and EQ, along with various professional skills.
People with high EQ and IQ, understanding the ways of the world, even if they dislike someone, won\'t blatantly say it.
However, students of the Martial Arts College focus on cultivation and combat, their awakened systems are for enhancing their fighting ability! Power is everything in their eyes! Academic performance isn\'t that important to them; at admission, they have lower score requirements than the Liberal Arts College—500 points for an S grade is enough.
In short, they are brutes; bruteness solves everything.
Xiang Beifei asked doubtfully, "Aren\'t you a security guard? Why are you encouraging students to fight?"
"I enjoy a good brawl, watching geniuses fight is the most interesting. As long as they don\'t kill anyone, small fights are allowed in the Martial Arts College."
Elder Luo said cheerfully, tossing his sunflower seed shells into a trash can as they passed by, then asked, "But I\'m curious, are you confident you can take them? Those guys are at the Qi-Controlling Stage. Have you reached the Qi-Controlling Stage yet?"
Xiang Beifei just smiled and didn\'t say much.
But Elder Luo kept on imparting his insights non-stop, "Even if you\'ve been admitted to Liangzhou University, you won\'t be left in peace. People will keep troubling you. The best way to shut them up is to show them how hard your fists are!"
He rambled all the way from the school gate to Dashang Building. Xiang Beifei let him ramble on without interrupting, and although the old man was verbose, much of what he said made sense.
Xiang Beifei made a phone call to Lu Zhiwei, who replied, "Be right there!"
The elevator doors opened, but it wasn\'t Lu Zhiwei. Instead, two guys appeared, seemingly talking about something.
"Hurry up, we need to go to Training Area One and show that freshman what we\'re made of."
"It\'s all the instructor\'s fault for making us do experiments early in the morning; we should still make it, right?"
"It\'s only eight now, if we\'re lucky—"
The speaking guy casually looked up and glanced at Xiang Beifei.
He initially looked away, but after walking a few steps, something occurred to him. He picked up his phone to check something, then stopped, turned around, and stared at Xiang Beifei.
"Wait a minute, you\'re that Xiang Beifei!"
The guy suddenly furrowed his brows.
