You Just Got Lucky

The group didn't wait long.

They were only about ten minutes later than everyone else.

Chen Ye and Tang Zichen's figures reappeared out of thin air, returning to the sports field.

They returned to the exact same spot they had left from, with no changes whatsoever.

Their appearance finally allowed the school leaders to heave a huge sigh of relief.

Then.

Came immense surprise!

All the leaders wore genuine smiles, happier than if their wives had left them with nothing.

Tang Zichen had returned safely!

This meant their jobs and positions were secure.

Not only that.

Tang Zichen had also received an additional reward, a great achievement worthy of national praise.

As leaders, they too would receive honor and benefits.

This situation was truly... exhilarating!

The vice-principal immediately strode out, laughing heartily, and announced loudly, "Students, you've worked hard. The school welcomes your return. A sumptuous feast has been prepared for you in the cafeteria. Make sure you eat your fill, then take a shower, and get a good night's sleep!" "Rest well today. We'll discuss your experiences in the Secret Realm tomorrow!"

Hearing this, the students finally showed smiles on their faces.

Three hours later.

In the afternoon.

Chen Ye was the first to return to the dormitory, then he lay down on his bunk and let out a sigh of relief.

Although he hadn't endured much hardship in the Secret Realm, he still found his own humble abode to be the most comfortable.

Tang Zichen, being the focus of attention, had already been summoned to the school's conference room, likely enjoying the enthusiastic attention of the school leaders and teachers.

Even though Chen Ye was also among those who received an additional reward.

But!

In everyone's eyes, he was merely lucky, just a tag-along to the class monitor, Tang.

Without a good hero talent, even if he had "luckily" gained considerable potential points this time, his future achievements would still be very limited, unworthy of the leaders' enthusiastic attention...

Chen Ye didn't mind; he was even pleased.

He didn't like dealing with those officials full of bureaucratic jargon.

At this moment, Chen Ye lay on his bed, not feeling sleepy at all.

Bored, he willed his mind and opened the attribute panel in his left eye:

Name: Chen Ye. Constitution: 312. Spirit: 11. Strength: 314. Agility: 314. Talent: Saitama Physique. Distributable Potential: 150.

These were his current attributes.

Two months had passed since Chen Ye obtained the Bald Physique, and today was the 61st day.

Calculating based on 15 attribute points per day, it meant that Chen Ye had maintained his training every single day for these 61 days without a single break, which was how he achieved these attributes.

A new column, "Distributable Potential," had appeared on the attribute panel.

It was given to him by the Secret Realm just now.

This meant Chen Ye now had 150 potential points that he could freely allocate to the four basic attributes.

He didn't think twice.

He directly added all of them to his Spirit attribute.

It wasn't that the other three attributes were unimportant.

It was just that Chen Ye could increase these three attributes indefinitely through the Saitama Training Method. Adding potential to them would simply be a waste.

Only the mental attribute could not be obtained through exercise, so it was necessary to use potential to strengthen it.

He had already experienced the benefits of a stronger mental attribute in the Secret Realm through Tang Zichen.

That girl's mental attribute was only 19, yet her hearing and smell were far superior to his, allowing her to detect enemies in advance.

The moment Chen Ye added 150 points of potential to his mental attribute.

He felt a current surge through his body.

Then.

The entire world changed from Chen Ye's perspective.

The most obvious change was his eyesight.

It was afternoon, and sunlight streamed through the window.

In the sunlight, Chen Ye found that he could clearly see the tiny cracks on the wall, the rusty patterns along the edge of the bed, and even the dust and bacteria in the air could not escape his sight!

Not only that.

Chen Ye felt his memory had also increased many times over.

He had casually glanced at the wall just now, and the details of every tiny crack, and their appearance, were deeply etched into his mind...

Another significant change.

It was his hearing.

For instance, at this very moment, Chen Ye could clearly hear two rats under the opposite bed making unspeakable noises, likely engaging in procreation!

And his sense of smell.

The sweat odor from his roommates' clothes could not escape Chen Ye's nose.

It was no exaggeration to say.

It was like a new world had opened up before Chen Ye's eyes.

"This... is actually quite amazing!"

"Someone once said that Ms. Qin, due to her incredibly powerful spirit, had reached a state of 'perceiving danger without seeing or hearing it.' I initially thought it was just bragging, but now it seems entirely possible."

Chen Ye marveled.

"It's a shame I don't have superpowers. Increasing my mental strength only allows me to perceive the world more clearly; it doesn't enhance my combat power."

"That's not entirely true either. Enhanced hearing and eyesight allow me to anticipate enemy movements, which does have a significant impact on my combat effectiveness."

In conclusion.

Chen Ye was very satisfied with the effects of increasing his mental attribute by 150 points.

At this moment.

The dormitory door was pushed open.

Zhao Zheng and Lu Yong walked in one after the other.

Seeing Chen Ye, both of them were stunned.

"What? Did a trip to the Secret Realm make you not recognize me?" Chen Ye greeted them with a smile.

Both of them stared deeply at Chen Ye, their expressions complex.

Lu Yong, in particular, had envy and jealousy practically written all over his face.

"Old Chen, tell us honestly, how many Jumping Corpses did you and the class monitor kill in the Secret Realm, and how many potential points did you get?" Lu Yong asked impatiently.

Zhao Zheng also looked on attentively.

Chen Ye thought for a moment and replied, "I don't remember how many Jumping Corpses we killed, and the potential points weren't that many. Including the bonus rewards, it was a little over a hundred points in total."

He wasn't being evasive or lying.

During the last nine days in the Secret Realm, he had beaten up an evolved zombie every day, making it attract a large number of small zombies for him to kill. Chen Ye genuinely didn't remember how many small zombies he had killed.

"Holy crap! Over a hundred points?"

Hearing that number, Lu Yong's eyes turned purple with envy.

Even Zhao Zheng showed a look of surprise.

Zhao Zheng and Tao Hu, as a team, had only killed 9 zombies and obtained 52 potential points. He still had to split it with Tao Hu, leaving him with only 26 potential points.

And that was after they had worked themselves to death and risked their lives multiple times to painstakingly obtain it.

Yet this guy in front of him, relying on his handsome face and being favored by the class monitor, had effortlessly reaped rewards that were unattainable for them.

It was truly... unfair!

"Oh, right!" Chen Ye suddenly asked, "Where's Qian Fugui?"
