C3 Ding! Reward: 100 Constitution Points

"Hey! Stop right there!"

Lee Yun had barely walked out of the school gate when someone stopped him. The person looked annoyed and eager to teach him a lesson.

"Zhang Dong, what do you want?"

Lee Yun's face turned pale. Zhang Dong was a delinquent and a class bully. He threatened his classmates for protection money. Lee Yun was penniless and had failed to cough up the fee several times. Hence, he had been at the receiving end of a dozen punches in the past.

"What do I want? Hmph!"

Zhang Dong rolled up his sleeves and walked up to Lee Yun. The bully looked formidable and intimidating, facing him.

"In the classroom, I asked you to show me the answers, but you did the contrary and concealed it? It would seem like you snubbed me!"

Zhang Dong shoved him violently and Lee Yun staggered and nearly fell over.

"You had all the answers but chose to be a hard-ass about it, right?"

Zhang Dong spat on the ground with contempt. "If I don't thrash you today, you may carry the illusion that you are a big shot! To me, you are a piece of shit!"

"This does not look good," Lee Yun thought. Zhang Dong was a hardened fighter. To make matters worse, he was tall with sturdy legs. Running away was not an option. Lee Yun had to stand his ground!

It was futile to beg a guy like Zhang Dong for mercy.

"Wait! I still have an unopened beginner's gift bag!" he remembered.

Without further ado, Lee Yun opened the second bag.

"Ding! Congratulations! You have received Beginner Boxing Technique!"

Holy Mother of God!

Lee Yun was euphoric. The system really worked. It responded to his real-life situations and furnished him with whatever he needed!

Zhang Dong sneered, "You are pathetic. I am about to beat you up, and yet you look glad. Don't tell me you were born this wretched."

"Now that you have provoked me, let's see who ends up being pitiful!"

A blur of light flashed across Lee Yun's eyes. Before Zhang Dong could attack, he threw a punch.

"You have a death wish!"

Rattled by Lee Yun's nerve to attack him, Zhang Dong became blind with rage. Instead of dodging, he fired a punch at Lee Yun's fist.

Lee Yun didn't want to risk fighting Zhang Dong head-on. The two boys were not evenly matched. If Zhang Dong managed to land an attack on him, Lee Yun would hit the ground like a sack of potatoes.

Zhang Dong could tell that his opponent's tactics were to evade his attacks. A triumphant smile spread over his face. The bully had tempered his body by training with an expert. He could take on three to five adults without breaking a sweat.

"Drop dead! Haha!"

With Zhang Dong's savage laughter in the backdrop, the system notification lit up in front of Lee Yun's eyes.

"Ding! Choice event triggered. Please select."

Choice 1: Fight Zhang Dong head-on. Reward: 100 constitution points.

Choice 2: Avoid the fight. The host will get a random gift.

Choice 3: Kneel and beg for mercy. Bonus Skill: Slave Laughter.

Lee Yun weighed his options.

Choosing the third option was out of the question. Did the system want him to laugh like a slave? That would be weird. Hard pass!

The second choice was a gamble. Lee Yun's priority was to get stronger. It was not wise to rest his fate on a random reward.

"I will go for Choice 1: Fight Zhang Dong head-on." Lee Yun uttered with conviction.

"Ding! Host has made a choice. Reward: 100 constitution points!"

Boom!

A surge of vitality permeated throughout Lee Yun's body, making his skinny constitution robust. However, he did not grow massive muscles. Instead, he felt like a powerhouse of masculine energy. His muscles became well-defined, crafted to perfection.

"Gaaah!"

Lee Yun cried out and exerted all his strength into the attack. His fist smashed into Zhang Dong's.

Zhang Dong's smug face faltered as his fist came into contact with Lee Yun's. He felt as if he had punched a block of metal. A surge of energy followed through, jostling him and breaking his spirit.

"Aaargh!"

A blood-curdling scream escaped Zhang Dong's lips. He was thrown a few feet away. The defeated bully squatted on the ground, holding onto his damaged arm, his face twisted in agony.
