Forget it. Maybe a dim-witted system would let him squeeze a few more benefits out of it or something.
But when Chiba Yun Chuan heard what the system said, he wondered if it had been nerfed. And it was limited to tennis, too?
Couldn't it be all-purpose? Then he could make waves in politics and business. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
But clearly, he was getting ahead of himself.
"Host, please stop daydreaming in broad daylight. Keeping your feet on the ground is what matters!
Just like this system: be a virtuous system with high moral standards!"
This system really had no shame!
Still, Chiba Yun Chuan was happy enough just to have a system. Why worry about its limitations?
He was only complaining a little.
Besides, this was the world of tennis he loved most!
Chiba Yun Chuan was practically bursting with happiness. He had all three of life's great joys: transmigration, a good family background, and a cheat ability. What more could he ask for?
On top of that, he had been an orphan in his previous life, and other people had paid for his university education. His only regret was never getting the chance to repay the kind person who had funded his studies!
But he quickly got over it. He couldn't go back anyway, so he might as well make the best of things!
Just thinking about teaching those arrogant nobodies a lesson, and facing off against cheat-level players like Echizen Ryoma, the Child of God Yukimura, the U-17 high schoolers, and the talented players from around the world, made Chiba Yun Chuan's blood surge with excitement!
"I'll teach every last one of them a lesson, and I'll show Echizen Ryoma what a real cheat is!" Chiba Yun Chuan roared inwardly.
Echizen Ryoma, with his protagonist's aura in The Prince of Tennis, only got stronger when he faced a stronger opponent. Who knew what would happen when he met someone like Chiba Yun Chuan, who had transmigrated with a system?
But Chiba Yun Chuan was sure he would be the one to win.
After calming himself down, Chiba Yun Chuan silently called up the Strongest Show-off System. A translucent blue panel appeared, floating in midair before him.
Strongest Show-off System (The Prince of Tennis World) Host: Chiba Yun Chuan Strength: Worse than a beginner! Show-off Value: 0 (Show-off Value can be obtained by showing off!) Power: 2 Speed: 2 Stamina: 2 Technique: 2 Mental Strength: 5 Total Attributes: 13 (Regional Level) Mission: Join a school's tennis club and become its captain! (Completion Reward: Asura Path!) Talent: None Skills: None System Inventory: None (Host is advised to start showing off immediately. At present, you have nothing except your mission!)
At a glance, Chiba Yun Chuan felt half his heart sink. Was the system serious?
He was worse than a beginner?
Chiba Yun Chuan silently took back the thought he'd just had!
With a setup like this, he couldn't beat anyone.
Most importantly, was that last line of the system meant to rub salt in the wound? What did it mean, he had nothing?
Who did it think it was looking down on?
So he asked,
"Great System, big brother System, you've left me with nothing. How am I supposed to show off? What am I supposed to use to show off? I'm afraid someone will knock me out before I even get started!
And what do you mean, worse than a beginner? Are you serious?
Shouldn't I get all kinds of god-tier skills as soon as I activate the system?
What, did the system get an update?
Could you at least show some basic system etiquette?
At this rate, when I go to the tennis court, I won't be able to beat those freakishly strong middle schoolers, let alone the nobodies, right?
And you still call yourself the strongest? You're nothing!"
Perhaps Chiba Yun Chuan's rant had worked.
He immediately heard the system's notification.
"Beep! Since the host is currently far too weak, the system is giving the host a Tennis Beginner's Gift Pack. Host, simply think 'Use' to open it!"
Hearing the system say this, Chiba Yun Chuan immediately thought, Use!
A series of notifications followed, leaving Chiba Yun Chuan's head spinning.
"Beep! Congratulations, Host, on receiving the Tennis Beginner's Gift Pack!
Congratulations, Host, on opening the Tennis Beginner's Gift Pack!
Congratulations, Host, on mastering basic tennis knowledge!
Congratulations, Host, on obtaining the Eye of God! (Eye of God: Can see through all tennis techniques. Its power depends on the host's physique!)
Congratulations, Host, on obtaining Tough Body! (Tough Body: Greatly enhances the recipient's physique in every aspect, especially stamina! However, it has no effect on mental strength.)
Congratulations, Host, on obtaining a complete set of tennis equipment!
Congratulations, Host, on obtaining the tennis skill Light Bullet!"
Hearing the system's barrage of notifications, Chiba Yun Chuan was dumbfounded. Was the system really this generous? It seemed he had landed a wealthy system!
As the gift pack opened, Chiba Yun Chuan also felt his body changing!
First, his mind began to absorb a wealth of knowledge about tennis. In an instant, Chiba Yun Chuan felt like a player who had been playing for years. It wasn't like the half-baked tennis knowledge he'd picked up before. This was far more professional!
This was great! Chiba Yun Chuan had gone straight from someone familiar with tennis to a master of tennis knowledge.
Then there were his eyes. Chiba Yun Chuan suddenly felt his eyesight grow much sharper. Just how sharp? He could see even slightly larger specks of dust, as long as he concentrated!
He wondered if he could use this to look at other things! Of course, it would be even better if he could see through things!
Finally, there was his body. Chiba Yun Chuan felt his headache disappear! He also felt full of boundless energy, with an urge to let it all out!
When he moved slightly, Chiba Yun Chuan felt as if he couldn't control his body. It was probably because he hadn't adjusted to the change in strength yet. He would have to train gradually to get used to it.
But for now, after adjusting a little, walking and the like shouldn't be a problem.
After moving around for a few minutes, Chiba Yun Chuan gradually got the hang of the changes in his body.
So this was what it felt like to be strong? It felt incredible!
After basking in the feeling for a few minutes, Chiba Yun Chuan summoned the system again to take a look.
He mainly wanted to see how his strength had changed after receiving all those rewards.
Strongest Show-off System (The Prince of Tennis World) Host: Chiba Yun Chuan Strength: Regional Level (Although the host's five stats have reached the national level, he lacks practical experience!) Show-off Value: 0 Power: 4 Speed: 4 Stamina: 6 Technique: 3 Mental Strength: 7 Total Attributes: 24 (National Level) Mission: Join a school's tennis club and become its captain! (Completion Reward: Asura Path!) Talent: Tough Body, Eye of God Skills: Light Bullet System Inventory: Tennis Rackets X2, Tennis Shoes X2 (The path of showing off is about to begin. Host, are you ready?)
Seeing the various stats in the system and the skill he'd just received, Chiba Yun Chuan felt as if he were dreaming!
He didn't know whether The Prince of Tennis measured strength by attribute points, but the system said his stats had already reached the national level!
