Ding ding ding..."
As the loud bell signaling the end of class rang throughout the campus, the noise of countless students erupted.
"Wei Wen, wake up! Don't sleep; school is over," Luo Feng said, patting his deskmate next to him.
"School is over already?" Wei Wen opened his sleepy eyes and couldn't help but smile. "Let's go then."
Having traveled to the Swallowing Starry Sky, he had become Luo Feng's best friend, Wei Wen.
In truth, it wasn't that Wei Wen didn't want to work hard, but after striving for more than ten years, he realized his talent had its limits, leaving him with no choice but to take it easy.
Fortunately, he had Luo Feng to rely on. Wei Wen believed that as long as he maintained a good relationship with Luo Feng, he could live a carefree life.
[Congratulations to the host who has been lazy for six years and has successfully awakened the Lazy System!]
"Six years?" Wei Wen clenched his fists and took a deep breath.
---
Three years and three years... If he had known that the awakening system had this condition, he would have chosen to lie down a long time ago. Why had he worked hard for more than ten years only to prove how useless he was?
Unfortunately, his talent for cultivation was lacking, and Wei Wen had already accepted his fate; otherwise, he wouldn't have ended up alone.
Now that he had awakened the Lazy System, Wei Wen couldn't help but feel his eyes light up. How could he not take advantage of lying down?
[Lazy System]
[Currently available friends: 1.]
[Reward rules: After binding a friend, each time the bound friend's strength increases, you can receive various rewards even while lying flat.]
Cool!
Very cool!
This approach was simple and straightforward. Compared to his previous posture of lying flat on his back while clinging to Luo Feng's thigh and waiting for death, it felt like he had adopted a more relaxed and carefree attitude.
[You have chosen to bind your friend Luo Feng, and your strength will be fed back soon...]
"Luo Feng, my future success will depend on you!" Wei Wen said, looking at Luo Feng with anticipation.
Practice?
In this life, practicing cultivation was impossible for him!
After all, he had proven his lack of talent through twelve years of hard work. Now, with the opportunity to improve his strength through Luo Feng's progress, he felt like he was finally on the verge of taking off.
In the days that followed, Wei Wen received various feedback notifications every day.
[Your friend Luo Feng is studying hard, and your knowledge is continuing to improve.]
[Your friend Luo Feng earned 100 yuan through tutoring, and you received 200 yuan.]
(Note: Repeated actions do not yield additional rewards.)
[Your friend Luo Feng is practicing Shenfa, and your awareness of Shenfa is continuing to improve.]
[Your friend Luo Feng is practicing swordsmanship, and your knowledge of swordsmanship is continuing to improve.]
[Your friend Luo Feng is refining his strength, and your physical strength is continuing to improve.]
Looking at the continuous stream of feedback, Wei Wen felt a deep sense of satisfaction, even though it was drizzling outside.
After all, the rewards obtained through hard work felt entirely different from those earned by lying flat.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and before he knew it, Wei Wen's strength gradually improved, along with his understanding of body techniques and sword skills.
June 6th marked the first day of the college entrance examination.
According to the exam schedule, Wei Wen and Luo Feng, students of the Third High School, would take the entrance exam at First High School.
As for Wei Wen attending the exam this time, he was eager to see how much Luo Feng's strength would improve through the system feedback after awakening.
"Luo Feng, during the exam..." Wei Wen glanced at Luo Feng with a strange expression.
Although he sensed that Luo Feng might have some issues, he believed those problems could ultimately benefit him, so he refrained from saying anything outright.
"You should worry about yourself. I haven't seen you study hard these past few years," Luo Feng sighed.
"Let's work hard!" Wei Wen was silent for a moment, not wanting to say much more.
He truly hadn't put in the effort during these years. Even with the feedback he received from Luo Feng's studies, he would probably only manage a second grade.
"Kaka~~~"
While Wei Wen and Luo Feng were talking, the door of No. 1 High School slowly swung open.
"Dear candidates, please note that you may now enter the venue and prepare," a loud voice announced.
"Yeah." Wei Wen looked at Luo Feng, who was standing beside him. "Luo Feng, let's go in and take the exam."
Wei Wen and Luo Feng followed the crowd and, after being inspected by the invigilator, finally entered their respective examination rooms.
When the exam time arrived, the test papers were distributed.
Looking at the paper in front of him, Wei Wen quickly scanned it and felt a headache coming on. He couldn't solve many of the questions.
However, he wasn't too worried; after all, the purpose of his exam this time wasn't to achieve any particular results.
Since he had bound himself to Luo Feng, even if he completely slacked off in the future, as long as Luo Feng's strength increased, he would still receive various feedback rewards.
I have to say, the Lazy System is really cool!
The exam time flew by quickly, and two days passed in the blink of an eye. It was now the last exam, which Wei Wen was most looking forward to.
In this exam, Luo Feng would awaken as a spiritual master, and he would also receive rewards.
This math test was quite difficult. Every candidate frowned, including Luo Feng, whose mentality shifted quietly.
"It might be troublesome," Luo Feng said, feeling the challenge of the questions. He couldn't help but frown. "But on the bright side... the harder it is for me, the better!"
For true academic masters, the simpler the questions, the harder it becomes for them to distance themselves from the poorer students, which can slightly benefit those less capable.
Conversely, the more difficult the questions, the easier it is to widen the gap, which is obviously more advantageous to the top students.
Time passed quickly, and Luo Feng began to think and answer questions rapidly.
After about an hour, he finally tackled the multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank questions, demonstrating just how challenging this exam was.
"Hmm?"
Due to the difficulty of the questions, Luo Feng ran into trouble with the first major question. He began calculating, thinking, and solving problems on scratch paper.
The challenge of the exam stimulated his brain activity, causing it to soar.
Moreover, as a spiritual master, Luo Feng was supposed to awaken every six years or so.
Now, counting the time, it was indeed time for his third awakening.
The awakening of a spiritual master was a painful process, and the pulse data on the watch worn on Luo Feng's left hand began to soar.
120... 140... 160... 180... 200... 220... 240...
As his pulse and blood pressure climbed, Luo Feng's sea of consciousness was also greatly affected. Wisps of spiritual power overflowed from the dark golden ball in his mind.
Generally speaking, spiritual masters gather their power in the sea of consciousness because their bodies are too weak to withstand all the spiritual energy.
With the initial signs of awakening, Luo Feng suddenly felt his heart racing, and a wave of pain surged through his entire body.
As the pain intensified, even though Luo Feng was determined, he still fell into a coma on the spot.
However, this coma was actually beneficial for him. Firstly, his strength increased to the level of a warrior, and secondly, he began to awaken as a spiritual master.
If there was any further stimulation, it was highly likely that he would fully awaken as a spiritual master.
[Your bound friend Luo Feng has initially awakened as a spiritual master. You have obtained a planet-level first-order dark golden ball and successfully awakened the spiritual master.]
