System: Master Your Life

Chapter 80: Mission Rewards End of Military Training


On the other side, Xu Lin returned to the dormitory.

Xie Zhengrong and Hu Donghai were there, but Liu Longsheng hadn't come back yet. Tonight, Liu Longsheng was overwhelmed by Xu Lin's brilliance and was too stressed out to perform well, so he went out drinking to console himself.

Xu Lin didn't care about this matter.

After he came out of the shower, he received a message from Rong Xiyi.

Rong Xiyi: "Is your girlfriend around?"

Xu Lin: "I'm in the dormitory."

Rong Xiyi: "Then get online quickly!"

How annoying!

Rong Xiyi is really annoying!

She even wanted to add Ning Yuhuan on WeChat to question why she was trying to steal her man.

But Rong Xiyi didn't do that.

Would an old lady like me do something like that?

But still!

Rong Xiyi really felt annoyed!

Xu Lin: "Let's talk tomorrow night, I have something to do tonight."

"Xu Lin, what do you have to do?"

"I'm just busy, that's all."

"Ha!"

Rong Xiyi sent a voice message cursing: "Forgot about good friends after getting a girlfriend, huh? Can't even play games with me?"

Xu Lin: "To be honest, I really have something to do."

Rong Xiyi: "Xu Lin, my black stockings are arriving tomorrow!"

Xu Lin: "Details!"

Rong Xiyi: "Scram!"

Xu Lin: "No black stockings, I'm logging off then."

Xu Lin put his phone aside.

After singing "Little Love Song" tonight, Xu Lin received a notification from the system that the military training task was completed.

Fixed skill reward: Flute Mastery.

Xu Lin wasn't too concerned about it; he wasn't developing music, so this skill was just for occasional fun.

But, better than nothing.

As they say, having more skills never hurts, it might come in handy someday.

Random special item reward: Extraordinary Memory buff.

This is an entirely new buff, as the name suggests, under its influence Xu Lin would have exceptionally strong memory.

"I wonder how this Extraordinary Memory works?"

Xu Lin opened the "Zhuangzi's Discourse" he borrowed from Shang Wanjun and started reading.

He randomly opened a page, glanced at it, closed his eyes, and recalled, finding that he basically remembered the contents of that page.

Then he opened his eyes and glanced again, this time more seriously.

Closed his eyes, recalled.

"Except for a few spots where the memory was a bit blurry, most of it, even the punctuation marks, were memorized."

Xu Lin was a bit surprised.

He further experimented, this time reading a new page at a normal pace instead of a quick glance.

Closed his eyes, recalled.

He remembered it all, didn't even skip the punctuation marks!

"So as long as I'm slightly serious, this Extraordinary Memory buff is akin to photographic memory. A casual glance doesn't cement it, some parts remain fuzzy."

Xu Lin had an epiphany.

He didn't yet know what practical applications Extraordinary Memory would have, but having a good memory is never a problem, maybe it would be useful later on.

Again, as the saying goes: having more skills never hurts!

...

The remaining week of military training quickly passed.

On the morning of the fourteenth day, the school organized a rehearsal, and university military training officially ended.

Today happened to be Friday, and the next two days were the weekend, with no classes, it was a delightfully relaxing weekend for the freshmen.

After all, the end of military training marked the official start of the wonderful university life the freshmen had been dreaming of.

After more than ten days of military training, many couldn't avoid getting a bit tanned. Girls fared better because they were cautious about sun protection, but boys rarely use sunscreen, so many turned into charcoal, and a few extreme cases looked like miners fresh off a mining field.

In short, really tanned.

Xu Lin didn't get tanned at all.

After the rehearsal ended in the morning, Xu Lin returned to the dorm to take a shower.

"Xu Lin, wanna come out later? We're thinking about getting haircuts too!" Xie Zhengrong asked.

Turns out, he and Hu Donghai were planning to go out.

As for Liu Longsheng, ten minutes ago he had left in his e300, off to who knows where.

Xu Lin: "Next time, I'm planning to go out with my girlfriend, and I won't be coming back tonight."

"Oh! I see!"

Xie Zhengrong understood instantly and shared a knowing glance with Hu Donghai towards Xu Lin.

The freshmen who have partners, regardless of gender, probably wouldn't be coming back tonight, leaving just a group of single folks lounging in the dorms.

A few minutes later, dressed and ready, Xie Zhengrong and Hu Donghai left as well.

This left Xu Lin alone in the dorm\.

Xu Lin played games for a while before directly going to bed for a nap.

Ning Yuhuan still had a lecture in the afternoon, which ended at three forty-five, only then could they go out.

Otherwise, Xu Lin wouldn't have still been in the dorm.

When Xu Lin woke up from his nap, it was already two in the afternoon.

He got up to wash his face and brush his teeth.

His outfit was a short-sleeve, work pants, and a pair of casual shoes.

At two nineteen, Xu Lin met with Ning Yuhuan, and then followed her to her class.

It was a lecture hall, where two sophomore economics classes were held together.

Xu Lin, with a bit of a yellow-hair characteristic, attracted the stares of Ning Yuhuan's many classmates as he entered the classroom.

And Xu Lin, with his arm around Ning Yuhuan's shoulders, entered not so flamboyantly, but quite naturally.

Those guys immediately found him disagreeable.

Screw it!

Ning Yuhuan was the unattainable flower of their dreams, the goddess to many.

A few days ago, a freshman won her over, no one had objections, since it wasn't their place to interfere in Ning Yuhuan's romantic choices.

Out of sight, out of mind, as they say.

Watching her sitting in the classroom, she remained a sight to behold.

But now that this freshman decided to show up, brazenly entering their student classroom with an arm around Ning Yuhuan's shoulders.

Damn!
