Synthesis!
[Ding! Check-in successful!] [Obtained one-star trait "White Tiger Dagger" - it's white! It's a tiger! It's a dagger! It's the White Tiger Dagger!] [No active activation required. Once equipped, you can directly transform into a White Tiger Dagger.]
Wait.
Chu Ge didn't quite understand that last sentence from the system.
What did it mean, no active activation required, and once equipped, he could directly transform into a White Tiger Dagger?
This White Tiger Dagger... was it what it sounded like?
Gradually, he seemed to realize something.
But he hoped it wasn't what he thought.
"System."
[I'm here.]
"Explain what that last sentence means."
[Host, it means exactly what it says.]
"Stop talking in riddles."
"Just tell me, is this White Tiger Dagger a weapon or a physique?"
[A physique.]
Chu Ge fell silent for a long time.
What a fine physique.
This was just great.
This was definitely the worst trait he had drawn in his three check-ins.
He couldn't even figure out why this thing had been put in the trait pool.
Wasn't it a little too obscene?
He used to think "Blue Silver Grass" was bad enough, and later thought there couldn't be anything worse than "Sky-Rumbling Earth-Blazing Luo Sanpao." Now he realized he had still been too young.
There was actually another master.
Just as he was feeling depressed, a notification sounded from the system:
["White Tiger Dagger" has been stored in the system inventory. Replace your current talent, "Blue Silver Grass"?]
"Replace your grandpa!"
Chu Ge nearly spat blood in anger.
The system had definitely chosen this moment to pop up that notification on purpose.
It just wanted to watch him make a fool of himself.
[But I do want to watch.]
Chu Ge fell silent.
What a terrible line.
"I **********!"
(One googol words omitted here.)
Even Chu Ge didn't know what he had cursed.
In short, it was filthy.
Luckily, that silly roe deer had gone back to sleep at her own home tonight, or she would definitely have been disturbed.
Of course, given how soundly the silly roe deer slept, she probably wouldn't have woken up anyway.
After calming down a little over this fucking reward, Chu Ge said to the system:
"Synthesize these three traits."
[All right, beginning synthesis for host.] [Synthesizing...]
Chu Ge's heart rose into his throat.
The synthesis success rate was only fifty percent. If it failed this time, he would have only one one-star trait left, and he would have to check in for another two days before he could synthesize again.
If it failed, getting "Blue Silver Grass" back from the system would be fine, but if he got one of the other two back, he would be emo for a long time.
The next second, a pleasing notification sounded.
[Synthesis complete!] [Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the two-star trait "Iron Cavalry" - upon activation, locks onto the current target. While within your attack range, the target cannot evade.] [Note: This trait is a "limited-use skill." Host can activate it at most ten times per day.]
Hearing that the synthesis had succeeded and had even produced a divine skill like Iron Cavalry, Chu Ge's heart settled.
Within my attack range, the other party can't evade?
What more was there to say?
They might as well just declare him the winner.
As for the limited number of activations, Chu Ge could understand that too.
If Iron Cavalry could be activated without limit, it definitely wouldn't be a two-star trait. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to rank it four stars or even five.
Besides, he didn't think he would be so bad that he would keep failing to hit people.
[No trait detected in the current Qi and Blood Realm trait slot. Equip "Iron Cavalry"?]
"Equip it."
This time, Chu Ge answered without hesitation.
With Iron Cavalry equipped, Chu Ge's fighting spirit shot straight to the maximum.
He really wanted to find someone to fight right now.
Unfortunately, who could he find to spar with in the middle of the night?
The silly roe deer?
She certainly would agree.
He also had the fingerprint access and passcode to her house.
If he wanted, he could drag Xiao Yan out of bed and give her a beating anytime.
Of course.
Chu Ge wasn't enough of a beast to drag someone out of bed in the middle of the night to practice with him.
"...Better wait until tomorrow."
The school had already notified everyone today that there would be a class placement exam after they arrived tomorrow.
Then he could openly fight someone.
Although those students his own age were all weaklings before him.
But sometimes stomping weaklings was pretty fun too.
It would be even better if he ran into Lin Luyin.
His "Iron Cavalry" against her "Evasion," two stars against four stars. Just thinking about it was interesting.
Meanwhile.
The Lin family estate was brightly lit.
A beautiful girl in teddy bear pajamas was lying on her bed, reading a comic on her tablet.
At that moment, Lin Luyin had a lecherous look on her face.
Her two little feet, clad in white socks, were crossed and bobbed up and down with her emotions.
This comic was so addictive.
Her drool was almost dripping onto the blanket.
The comic was called "Cousin, Don't Look Back, I'm Really Not Your Older Cousin."
Just from the title, it didn't sound like anything wholesome.
And it really wasn't.
It was a doujin.
If you didn't know what "doujin" meant, you could understand it as an adult comic.
To put it more bluntly.
Porn.
That's right, the outwardly dazzling and glamorous beautiful girl of the Lin family was, in private, a little girl who loved reading doujin.
Every time she turned a page, her body squirmed.
She looked just like a maggot in a toilet.
Every so often, she also let out a "Hehehe."
But her excitement didn't last long.
Because she soon reached the latest chapter.
"Aaaaah!"
In the quiet room, Lin Luyin suddenly opened with a war cry.
She rolled around on the bed, clutching her tablet.
"No, no, no!"
"Just when I got to the good part, how can there be no more?!"
"Waaah-!"
After making a fuss on the bed for a few minutes, she was probably tired and finally stopped rolling.
But her hands and mouth didn't stop.
"Hurry up and update!"
Her fingertip kept tapping "next chapter" in the lower right corner.
No matter how many times she repeated it, the page never showed any sign of loading.
"There's no more..."
"There really isn't any more..."
Lin Luyin felt like she was going to break down.
She had finally found a pseudo-incest story where the characters weren't blood-related.
And the older female cousin and younger male cousin pairing was so shippable.
Perfect food for the soul.
And now there was no more.
Waaah.
Oof!
Thinking of this, she hurriedly opened the tipping page and tipped the author, "Chu Xiao," like crazy.
[Update reminder talisman ×99999...] [Razor blade ×99999...]
Then she left a comment:
"Lazy author, get up and update already! You only release one chapter a week-even the production team's donkey wouldn't dare rest as much as you!"
"Get up and draw for me twenty-four hours a day without stopping! (Whip) (Whip) (Whip)!"
After doing all that.
She tossed the tablet aside.
And started thinking about tomorrow's entrance exam.
Thinking about how she would astonish everyone tomorrow.
Then she thought of that somewhat slender young man.
"Chu Ge! You're going to compete tomorrow too, right?"
Lin Luyin remembered how Chu Ge had come to the Lin family last month to break off the engagement, and had even kicked her butt five times.
Pain!
It hurt so much!
Revenge!
She had to get revenge!
"Chu Ge! At tomorrow's class placement exam, I, this young lady, will definitely kick you in the butt five times too!"
"No! Double it! At least ten kicks!"
As she spoke, the corners of Lin Luyin's mouth curled up in an ever-so-slightly smug arc.
With the four-star trait "Evasion," how could the mere Chu Ge last a single exchange against her?
The image of Chu Ge getting his butt kicked by her in public tomorrow had already appeared in the girl's mind.
"Time to sleep."
Good night, Makka Pakka.
