Ji Qingyi remained silent, quietly gazing for a moment before nodding: "Mmm, go practice."
"Yes!"
Su Cheng responded and stood up, beginning his practice.
……………………
Thursday.
In the blink of an eye, the day before the exam results were to be announced had arrived, and the archery competition was set to begin next Saturday.
During this period, Su Cheng had never stopped practicing. Every day was filled with practice, and even after the Archery Club ended, he would sneak back at night to train alone.
Fortunately, hard work paid off, and Su Cheng finally broke through his bottleneck, entering a new realm where his skills were refined.
Archery Club.
"Snap～"
Su Cheng opened his eyes, a hint of joy flashing in his gaze.
This time, he could hit the target even with his eyes closed.
"Not bad."
Ji Qingyi, who had just come out from the small pavilion nearby, nodded slightly after seeing Su Cheng's performance.
"Have you grasped the core idea?"
Hearing Ji Qingyi's question, Su Cheng immediately suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth and asked seriously.
"Try shooting one more arrow."
Ji Qingyi instructed calmly.
"Yes!"
Su Cheng nodded in agreement, then closed his eyes and aimed again.
"Swish～"
However, this time there was no sound of the arrow hitting the target.
Su Cheng was a bit startled, but he didn't stop. He shot again, this time even with his eyes open.
"Swish～"
Still, the arrow missed the target.
"What's going on?"
Su Cheng furrowed his brows, his expression incredulous.
"Now that I'm beside you, your mindset has already changed, so you can't focus and experience the profound joy of the spiritual world."
Ji Qingyi stepped forward and spoke softly.
Hearing this, Su Cheng fell into deep thought.
"Ask yourself, during the competition, with countless eyes on you, can you adjust your mindset to be calm and balanced?"
Su Cheng didn't speak, but his expression said it all.
Earlier, it was very quiet and he was alone, so he hit the target. However, when Ji Qingyi arrived, his mindset had subtly changed, filled with a bit of showing off and pride.
Realizing this, he felt a bit defeated.
Ji Qingyi slowly walked beside him and continued softly: "There's still time, it's not too late."
These words made Su Cheng look up in disbelief, his eyes wide as he stared at Ji Qingyi.
He never expected his icy club president to encourage him so unexpectedly.
"I understand."
…………………………
Ji Family Mansion
Study.
"Now, go invite a royal physician to examine Su Cheng."
Ji Qingyi, looking at the book in her hand, had a faint trace of worry on her brow as she spoke.
Over the past few days, she had noticed that Su Cheng's body seemed a bit unusual.
Although she had warned Su Cheng, he continued to do as he pleased.
So, today, she decided to invite a physician to check on him.
"Yes, Young Mistress!"
The maid behind her respectfully agreed.
She was not Liu Qingyue but another attendant.
Liu Qingyue had been sent to the main family several days ago, and her duties had been transferred there as well.
"Oh, and have Ji Yuewu return."
"Yes."
…………………………
Night
Su Cheng was at home having dinner and washing dishes.
These days, he hadn't confessed to anyone, mainly because the Disciplinary Committee Members at school were acting like crazy, making it impossible for him to make a move.
And he couldn't confess to Cornelia either, and the reason?
Because her intelligence had reached 4.7.
He felt like she wasn't as easy to trick anymore.
Moreover, he had a strange feeling that if he confessed again, Cornelia would accept whatever he said.
In fact, these past few days, Cornelia had been appearing subtly at the entrance of his apartment at night, and in the mornings, she always seemed to bump into him just in time.
It's worth mentioning that since the last time he had chest pain and applied the medicine, the chest pain had never recurred.
No surprises there; the medicine must have worked.
Suddenly, he took out his phone to check it and found a group message.
The message was sent five minutes ago.
He clicked to see it was an @all message.
The group name was "Some Fresh Supermarket."
Last time, joining the group gave a discount, so he had joined.
Group Owner: "@all. Today there's a big sale on eggs and milk. Each person is limited to one set. Each set is 10 yuan."
Group Owner: "@all. Hurry up, everyone! There are only 100 sets available."
"Is there such a good deal?"
Seeing this message, Su Cheng's eyes lit up. He quickly turned off his phone and put on his jacket, rushing downstairs.
His speed was so fast that when he bumped into Cornelia head-on at the door, he didn't even notice. All he could think about was the discounted eggs and milk.
Cornelia was slightly startled upon seeing him, then reacted, thinking since they had bumped into each other, she might as well greet him: "I didn't expect it to be so…"
However, before she could finish, Su Cheng brushed past her, so fast it felt like a sonic boom, as if his speed had reached the speed of sound, creating a kind of 'air wall' sound.
Cornelia: "???"
She was completely dumbfounded, her mind blank.
Then, she activated her 4.7 IQ to meticulously analyze why Su Cheng was in such a hurry.
In that moment, her mind flashed through various functions, Jurassic periods, human origins, interstellar eras, and finally, she even considered the universe, black holes, wormholes, light-years, planets, satellites, stars, and spaceships.
Yes, she had comprehended the universe.
But ultimately, she couldn't find the reason.
"No, that's not it!"
Cornelia shook her head, dismissing her analysis, and delved deeper.
Suddenly, her thinking speed had surpassed the speed of sound, naturally forming a barrier.
Scientifically known as: Retarded (intellectual disability)
Thus, her thoughts collided with this barrier, causing her head to smoke.
"Ah, why is he in such a hurry! Is he rushing to be reincarnated?!"
After half a day of William's masterful efforts, he still couldn't figure it out. In the end, he stomped his foot and chased after Su Cheng's retreating figure.
He was afraid something might happen to Su Cheng!
....................................
Meanwhile
Arriving at the fresh supermarket, Su Cheng found it packed with people, with over a dozen already in line.
He quickly got in line, waiting to buy his items.
Soon, it was his turn.
"Hello, welcome."
The clerk greeted warmly.
"Huh?"
Su Cheng was surprised to find that the cashier was an elderly man with white hair, looking to be in his sixties.
He was holding a barcode scanner.
"One set of eggs and milk."
Su Cheng said.
"Alright, please wait a moment."
A young clerk standing beside him brought out a tray of eggs and a liter of milk.
"Thank you."
Su Cheng took out his phone, opened the payment code, and prepared to let the old man scan it.
This old man held the scanner and tried to scan Su Cheng's phone screen several times, but it wouldn't beep.
"Young man, don't shake your hand."
Saying this, the old man reached out and grabbed Su Cheng's wrist, placing his thumb on the outside and his index, middle, and ring fingers on the inside, even moving them slightly left and right, feeling something.
Su Cheng was startled and quickly pulled his hand away.
"Old man, if the scanner is broken, why are you taking my pulse? If you want to take a pulse, at least take the scanner's pulse!"
Upon hearing this, the others in the store burst out laughing, all looking at the old man.
The old man first frowned at Su Cheng, then awkwardly smiled, aiming the scanner at Su Cheng's phone again.
Su Cheng had to open the payment code again.
"Beep."
The sound came out, and he smiled, "I used to be a doctor for many years, so I got into the habit. Please don't take it amiss. Otherwise, my new job might be in trouble."
Hearing this, the others couldn't help but laugh.
Su Cheng didn't stay any longer, as there were others in line. He took the eggs and milk and prepared to go home.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."

e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe. "Would you like to dance as well?"
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
