The young man was finally discharged from the hospital, but his mind was still haunted by the memories of what was yet to come.
"Two weeks from now, the entrance exam for Heavenly Valley Academy will begin. By this time, I should have fought with Dad and Sister about going and eventually given my opportunity to Senior Brother. But not this time. Things will definitely deviate from their initial occurrence now that I'm fully aware of their scheme."
He sighed. "Peng Xi, shouldn't you show me my stats or something?"
Jun Xuan Jie's mouth twitched. He muttered, "The great and amazing Peng Xi…"
[What does our family fluff ball need?]
[The great and amazing Peng Xi is here. What can I do for you?]
"I requested my stats."

Quest:
"What is the meaning of this? Why is my intelligence so low?"
[This system agrees with you. I would have put 'null' for intelligence, but it seems you can read and write. I'm quite astonished.]
"…"
"Let's move on. What is this quest thing about?"
[Maybe the host should check it out.]
"How do I do that?"
[By removing every ounce of shame from you. To be an overlord, sacrifices must be made. Are you willing?]
At this question, Jun Xuan Jie realized that this was his only path to survival and success. "I am," he thought. "There's no going back now."
"I shall not do this! What kind of heinous mind do you have to think of this?"
[Host is being irrational and overreacting.]
"You're the one being irrational! Your whole family is overreacting."
[Host has 5 minutes until the time elapses, then the system will have no other option but to delegate punishment.]
"I can take any punishment. Nothing is worth more than my pride."
[Host accepted the punishment.]

"What even is the punishment? It's not something serious, right?"
[Host is correct. The punishment is not anything serious.]
[Host's life is at stake.]
"What the…"
"You didn't specify that it was my life! And what do you mean by 'not anything serious'?
[0:45]
"Okay, I will do it."
[Proceed.]
If you walk out of the hospital, you will be met with a delicate young lad behaving like a worm.
[What is the host doing?]
"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm twerking."
[System finds this embarrassing.]
"You asked me to do this."
As he finished his statement, he screamed out loud, "Open Quest!"
[Pfttt, hahaha, that was satisfying. And that's why you have such a low intelligence stat.]
Jun Xuan Jie looked confused, then realization dawned on him. He was being messed with.
Sigh
[Okay, host needs to imagine tapping on the quest and it will appear.]
Quest

Run 5km before the end of the day
Carry an object of 7kg for an hour
Jump 300 times in public
(If tasks aren't completed by the end of the day, host will die.)
"Is it just me, or does my life mean nothing to you?"
[It means nothing to me.]
"Oh, that's nice to know."
"Ummm, Xuan Jie, are you okay?"
He was brought out of his daze by his elder sister's voice. He hoped she hadn't witnessed his embarrassing act.
"Senior Sister, when did you get here?"
"Not long ago. I was looking for you in the waiting room but was told you left."
"Ah, I was just getting some fresh air."
As they continued talking, a black Porsche came into view. In a world of mana, Dou Qi, and cultivation and other races, cars were a luxury some still enjoyed.
It was time to head back home.
