Next Time, For Sure

Before we knew it, it was next Wednesday.

Lin Zichen celebrated the day his novel went on sale, and on that very day, he used up all his saved drafts, updating 50,000 words.

The readers were thrilled and kept praising him as a tentacle monster.

After that, I maintained a daily update of 10,000 words to continue entertaining readers.

Readers voted and tipped in support.

With the combined benefits of Use-Disuse Evolution and Heavenly Human Wisdom Root, after a month of writing practice, he can now easily write 10,000 words per hour.

Spending only one hour a day writing won't affect my daily exercise time, so it's acceptable.

"Xiao Chen, your book is doing really well. If you can consistently update 10,000 words a day and the plot doesn't fall apart, you can probably earn around 50,000 yuan in royalties in the first month. Once you have more words, earning 100,000 yuan a month won't be a problem."

Lin Yansheng analyzed with a smile on his face.

Zhang Wanxin said excitedly, "My Xiao Chen truly is an all-around genius. He's still in high school, and his earning power is already almost on par with his parents."

Lin Yansheng said with self-deprecation, "Thinking back to my first book, although I had a contract, I only had a handful of subscribers. I worked myself to the bone every month and only earned a few hundred yuan in royalties."

At this moment, the couple couldn't help but feel emotional.

All-around geniuses are truly remarkable; they can achieve far greater Achievement than ordinary people in any field.

Moreover, the effort required to achieve this Achievement is probably less than one-tenth of what others put in.

"Xiao Chen, although you're making a lot of money writing novels now, you still need to focus on your studies. You absolutely can't let it affect your studies, understand?"

"You must listen to your father. In this world, no matter how rich an ordinary person is, they can't compare to Gene Fusionist has broken through the limitations of humanity."

The couple spoke with deep concern.

Lin Zichen nodded. "Mom and Dad, don't worry, I can prioritize."

After saying that, I was thinking to myself, 50,000 a month, or even 100,000?

With this income, I won't have to worry about the funds to unlock the Exotic Beast Atlas anymore.

I'll update more frequently since it's just been released, hoping that the royalties from the first two months will be enough to start the Violent Roc Atlas.

With this in mind, for the next two weeks, besides his daily training and helping Shen Qinghan with special training, Lin Zichen focused most on the performance of his novel.

The better the novel's performance, the more royalties you'll receive, and the sooner you can unlock the Violent Roc Atlas.

In order to earn more money from writing, I sometimes type on my phone even during class.

I'm thinking of starting the Violent Roc Atlas first, and then resuming my original study schedule.

Days passed by like this.

That day, during martial arts class...

Han Yuanfeng organized a class discussion to check on the students' learning progress.

Lin Zichen, as always, dominated the entire field, leaving everyone helpless.

While earning 888 yuan, I also gained dozens of experience points to Achievement "Natural Selection" achievement.

In contrast to him, Shen Qinghan still couldn't beat anyone and, as always, came in last place in the class.

But unlike before, she now has a certain ability to fight back when facing her opponents.

In the last sparring match, when facing Wen Yuntong, who ranked second to last in the class, she was kicked off the Martial Platform and the battle ended in less than three seconds.

This time, she managed to hold on to Wen Yuntong for almost three minutes.

It's not about holding out like a tortoise for three minutes.

Instead, he engaged in a direct confrontation with Wen Yuntong.

He punched and kicked Wen Yuntong several times.

Han Yuanfeng praised her for her great progress and encouraged her to keep it up.

Time passed second by second.

As class was about to end, Han Yuanfeng said to the students:

"In a month, we will challenge the strongest top class of the second year of high school. Our goal is to defeat everyone except the top three students in that class. Does everyone have confidence?"

"Have!"

The students responded loudly.

Upon hearing this answer, Han Yuanfeng smiled with satisfaction.

Afterwards, I called over the four strongest students in the class and patiently analyzed the top-tier combat power of the strongest class in the second year of high school.

Not long after, the bell rang to signal the end of get out of class.

Lin Zichen didn't leave the school; instead, he returned to the classroom with Shen Qinghan, Li Chuxin, and He Yu.

Today it's their group's turn to clean the classroom.

[You and your team members cleaned the blackboard together, adding 1 to your total number of completed tasks.]

[You and your team members cleaned the floor together, increasing your total task completion count by 1]

[You and your team members mop the floor clean; this completes 1 task.]

[...]

[You and your team members neatly arrange the table; cumulative task completion count +1]

"Wow, finally finished cleaning!"

After setting up the last desk in the classroom, He Yu let out a sigh of relief.

Then, he couldn't help but complain, "Zichen, you're too responsible! Other groups just sweep the floor and call it a day, but you have to mop and set the tables, making us do it with you every time."

Li Chuxin rolled her eyes at him. "If you're so unwilling, then don't do it. Nobody's forcing you."

He Yu, with his legs crossed, looked at the group like a big shot and said, "That won't do. The four of us are in a group. It's either all of us do it, or none of us do it. I don't want to be a lone wolf."

Lin Zichen: "This is my fault. I made everyone work extra because of personal reasons. As an apology, I'll treat everyone to milk tea later."

Upon hearing this, He Yu immediately stopped complaining and said with a smile, "Zichen, no, godfather, how could I accept this?"

Lin Zichen smiled but remained silent.

Then, on a whim, he looked into the Void to check the progress of the Gregarious Animal Achievement.

[Achievement: Complete 1000 tasks in a cooperative manner]

[Reward: Gain the Biological Attribute - Gregarious Animal]

[Total number of tasks completed: 608/1000]

392 more attempts needed.

If I work hard, I can finish it in another month.

"I wonder what the effect of Biological Attribute Gregarious Animal is..."

Lin Zichen stared at the text message and thought to himself.

Just then...

Li Chuxin, who had been perfectly fine just moments before, suddenly found herself burying her face in her hands and crying, sobbing softly.

Seeing this, Shen Qinghan asked with concern, "Chu Xin, why are you crying?"

Li Chuxin looked up, wiping away her tears, and said, "My mom just told me on WeChat that my cat, the one who could do backflips, accidentally fell off the balcony and died, waaaaah..."

"It's just a cat, is it really that big of a deal?" He Yu asked, looking puzzled.

Li Chuxin glared at him upon hearing this. "A heartless person like you will never understand the bond between a cat and its owner!"

"Oh right, I don't understand." He Yu said, taking out a tissue and handing it to her. "Don't cry, wipe your tears."

Li Chuxin took the tissue, her eyes red from crying, and said with some surprise, "I didn't expect that a guy like you, who's always so loud and boisterous, would actually use tissues to wipe a girl's tears. You're quite the gentleman."

After saying that, she picked up a tissue to wipe her tears, but as she wiped, she felt something was off. She immediately looked at He Yu, puzzled, and asked, "Why does your tissue smell like that?"

"This is what I had left over from using the toilet this morning," He Yu answered honestly.

"???"

"Vomit--"

Li Chuxin's initial sadness turned into disgust.

At the time of parting.

With a handprint on his face, He Yu smiled and said to the three of them:

"By the way, my family's first martial arts school in Shanhai City will officially open in a few days. You three must come and support us. I'll give you VIP membership cards for free."

"I'll definitely do it next time." x3
