Hearing this voice, Lu Xiao's depressed mood instantly dissipated.
The novels were indeed true!
He had transmigrated to the dangerous Blue Planet and finally awakened the system!
But he had yet to figure out how to use this system.
"Simplification System… What does it mean?"
Lu Xiao immediately asked in his mind.
Ding! This system can simplify everything for the host. Now, you've been given a beginner's bundle of 200 Simplification Points.
Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows and looked at the Tao Te Ching in his hand.
Sun-level mental cultivation method, Tao Te Ching, detected. Requires 90 Simplification Points.
Would you like to simplify it immediately?
"Simplify!"
Things had already come to the worst possible outcome. It couldn't get any worse.
He might as well try his best.
Ding! Simplification successful!
Sun-level mental cultivation technique, Tao Te Ching, Volume 1: Kindness is like water. It has been simplified to the point that drinking water can improve one's Root Bone.
Drinking water could improve one's Root Bone?
Lu Xiao was a little stunned.
There was probably nothing more ridiculous than this in this world. Drinking water could improve one's Root Bone!
However, at this point, Lu Xiao had no other choice.
It was just drinking water. It wouldn't hurt to try!
He went straight to the water cooler.
He took a big gulp of water. If one glass wasn't enough, another followed.
You've drunk 1 kilogram of water, Root Bone +0.1
"F*ck, it really improved my Root Bone!!!"
Lu Xiao was completely shocked. This was a cheat that subverted his worldview.
His weakness was his Root Bone.
Now, he could actually improve it by drinking water. It was like giving him a pillow when he was sleepy.
An increase of 0.1 was not enough.
Lu Xiao began to drink one cup after another!
When the surrounding students saw this scene, they all began to sigh.
"Is Lu Xiao crazy?"
"I heard that some people will do things that ordinary people can't understand under extreme pressure. I think Lu Xiao went crazy from the shock."
"Sigh, Lu Xiao is handsome and usually works hard. Now that he has become like this…"
"That's true. Even a straw can crush a camel, let alone him who's only one point away."
"Oh my god, if he continues drinking, the bucket I just filled will be emptied."
"Hurry up and stop him. Don't let him die from drinking water!"
"He won't be the first student in our school to drink too much water and die, right?"
"Come on, stop making sarcastic remarks. He's already pitiful enough."
Seeing Lu Xiao like this, everyone felt a little upset.
Especially when it was Lu Xiao.
Who could accept that their efforts over the past few years had all gone down the drain?
In the crowd, Lin Yun'er felt even worse when she saw this scene.
It was no secret that she had a crush on Lu Xiao. However, Lu Xiao was obsessed with cultivation and turned a blind eye to her.
Lin Yun'er took a few steps forward and placed her hand on Lu Xiao's shoulder. She began to think about how to comfort him.
Lu Xiao did not notice this at all.
Instead, he was immersed in the joy of improving his Root Bone.
You've drunk 1 kilogram of water, Root Bone +0.1
You've drunk 1 kilogram of water, Root Bone +0.1
You've drunk 1 kilogram of water, Root Bone +0.1
…
The entire bucket of water went into his stomach.
It was impossible for an ordinary person's stomach to contain so much water. However, when a mysterious warm current flowed through Lu Xiao's stomach, it continuously condensed the water and absorbed it.
"Burp ~"
After finishing the last glass of water, Lu Xiao's Root Bone increased by 1 point!
When he turned back, the surrounding students' eyes were filled with pity and sympathy.
How could a good-looking young man go crazy? How pitiful.
The teacher felt even more helpless as he stood on the podium. No matter what, this was still his student. As a teacher, he had to guide him at critical moments.
"Lu Xiao, you…"
"Teacher, I want to test again!"
Before the teacher could finish speaking, Lu Xiao said bluntly.
Everyone who heard this was dumbfounded.
Oh no, oh no.
This guy was really stupid.
There were only two free tests in total. Lu Xiao actually asked for another test after drinking an entire bucket of water. Wasn't this a waste of time?
"Lu Xiao, you should rest first. Don't force yourself."
The teacher was stunned for a moment before immediately persuading him.
The student was stupid. He wasn't.
Was there anything in the world that could make one pass the test by drinking a bucket of water?
It was impossible!
"Don't worry, Teacher. I know what to do."
Lu Xiao said solemnly.
The look on his face was anything but a joke.
"Fine."
When a student requested for a second test, the teacher would at most try to persuade. He did not have the right to directly refuse them.
It was just a pity that this student, who was only one point short, could not accept reality and started to go a little crazy.
"Does Lu Xiao really think that drinking water can increase his combat strength?"
"It seems that this blow is really not small. He's wasting such a precious opportunity of the test."
"Lu Xiao, don't give up. There's still some time before the martial arts exam."
"That's right. Let it go. Not everybody in this world is a Martial Artist."
"Just take a break. Lu Xiao has already been possessed. It's useless no matter how you persuade him."
When the surrounding people saw Lu Xiao insist on standing on the podium, they could only shake their heads and sigh.
"Phew…"
Lu Xiao took a deep breath and placed his hand on the cold instrument again.
He felt the machine shudder slightly.
"Generating combat strength comprehensive score… Measured successfully."
"51 points, qualified. Result: Good!"
The cold mechanical voice spoke.
Instantly, everyone present fell silent.
Everything they had said before became a joke at this moment.
Lu Xiao had really passed!
"Great, great!"
"You really know how to surprise me."
The teacher reacted and hugged Lu Xiao.
He had felt sorry the most for Lu Xiao, who usually cultivated diligently.
He was just one step away from qualification, but the teacher did not expect things to change in an instant.
The students in the classroom looked like they had seen a ghost. It was unbelievable that a miracle had really happened.
"Could our class's water be some kind of elixir?!"
"Could it be that something is wrong with the instrument?"
"How could there be anything wrong with the instrument? This is the most stable instrument that has been introduced after many generations!"
"Why are things so magical today?"
"At first, I pitied Lu Xiao, but now I'm starting to pity myself."
"If Lu Xiao hadn't finished all the water, I would definitely drink some of it."
"There should be water in the neighboring class. Why don't we try it?"
Their initial sympathy had evolved into envy.
None of them knew how to describe what they were feeling.
Lin Yun'er, who was standing at the side, was also silently happy for Lu Xiao's passing.
"How is that possible?!"
The smug expression on Li Mao's face disappeared completely.
His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at the device.
