The bell rang, and the students rushed back to their classes. After just one lesson, word spread like wildfire across campus that Li Wei would participate in the “Fist of Hope” competition.

They were shocked when they learned that the reputedly weak pupil would compete. Everyone treated it with disdain and ridicule.

Some even claimed that Li Wei’s actions would harm the reputation of their school. In short, this quickly became a joke. It became widespread across the school.

When Li Wei learned of the news, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He didn’t think that he, who had always been “invisible” at school, would become the center of attention.

After class, the form teacher who had heard the news came to talk to him. “Li Wei, what were you thinking? Why did you sign up?

Training your vitality is the most important thing you can do right now. How can you do two things at once? No matter how bad it is, you must make a breakthrough and raise your vitality to 1 point. At the very least, you’ll be able to enroll in a technical school.

You’ll still be able to put food on the table after graduating that way. If you’re having trouble in life, you can tell me about it.”

The homeroom teacher knew that Li Wei was having financial difficulties, so he thought Li Wei was taking such a risk for money.

Even though he knew that his form teacher was concerned about him, “technical school” was a bit excessive, right? The students had to compete for a job with ordinary people after graduation. Essentially, they were just like the rest of the common workers.

It wasn’t that he didn’t value ordinary workers, but in this world, only the powerful were revered. Why should he have to suffer when he could improve? Of course, Li Wei was unable to voice his dissatisfaction right away.

“I know, teacher. I’ll work hard,” he said. This was not a lie because the hard work he was referring to was on the farm.

Li Wei saw the form teacher sighing as he walked away and thought, “You think I’m inferior? In two months, I’ll make sure that your jaw drops.”

…

Although he faced such doubts, they did not disrupt Li Wei’s plans. He was not in a hurry to prove himself, so he did not reveal the system’s secret.

Over the next two months, he continued strengthening his physical fitness and cultural knowledge during the day and worked on his system farm at night. While in his “Dreamland,” he insisted on tending to the farm’s upkeep and the maturing carrot crop every night.

Everything was going according to plan and developing in an orderly manner. Li Wei even went to the city library to learn more about farming to manage the farm better.

He had also arrived at four of the most optimal times for fertilizing the land, based on weather and humidity.

When Li Wei returned to the farm on the 77th day, he noticed dense green leaves had covered the formerly red and black fields! He was thrilled to see that even the leaves at the heart of the carrots were green!

This was a sign that it had fully matured!

He restrained his ecstasy and went to the farmland to observe. He noticed that some of the heart leaves had started to turn yellow when he examined them more closely.

Li Wei tore off a leaf and put it in his mouth. The fragrance of a plant instantly occupied his mouth. Sweet!

However, to be safe, he touched the ‘body’ of the carrots. The skin felt thicker to the touch than it had in the past. All signs indicated that his two months of hard work had finally come to fruition!

“That’s great! A total of 77 days! It’s three days earlier than expected!” At this moment, he experienced the joy of a farmer’s harvest.

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully planting 121 carrots!”

“Experience points increased by 121 points!”

“Congratulations on leveling up!”

‘121?’ Li Wei’s eyes shone. He had initially estimated that there would be 120 of them, but he did not expect that there would be one more!

However, the pleasant surprises were not over yet. Soon after, a sky blue panel sprang up. The data on the farm had been updated.

“God-level martial arts farm!”

[Level]: Level 2

[Experience points]: 115/300

[Area]: 1 mu

[Crop seeds]: none

[Livestock]: 0

[Farm ability 1]: all the crops produced within the soil can enhance one’s martial arts ability.

[Farm ability 2]: you can use money to buy items from the farm store.

“Unlocked function: one chicken farm!”

“…”

Today’s news was overwhelmingly positive. After the long wait for the carrots to ripen, his farm had also successfully advanced to Level 2! The 115 experience points all accumulated bit by bit through hard work over the last two months.

With this accumulation, it would not be challenging to rise to Level 3! The new function, the chicken farm, also appeared!

This meant that he had the opportunity to rear livestock. Through meat, the increase in his vitality would be higher! It was very satisfying to see one’s hard work pay off!

Li Wei was elated and hurried to the warehouse, where he retrieved a large basket and shovel. He was going to start pulling up the carrots! This was the most relaxing and delightful part of the process compared to the prior diligent planting and weeding.

Li Wei used both hands on the field to pull up the red carrots. As for those deeply rooted, he had to use both hands together. With a yank, the carrot came out, and he fell backward to the ground.

Li Wei didn’t care about being covered in mud but laughed happily. This was natural. These things looked like carrots that weren’t worth much. However, it was a tremendous source of vitality.

In terms of money, it was astronomical!

More than 100 carrots took up only a few dozen square meters. After more than 20 minutes of hard labor, he had piled up a tiny red mountain in the basket. Li Wei took them to the stream to wash them.

Soon, a clean carrot soaked in the stream water began to shine under the sun. Next was the most crucial moment.

‘It will increase the vitality value…’ At this moment, Li Wei’s heart was racing, and he whispered to himself about the dream he hadn’t been able to reach for three years.

As soon as Li Wei took a bite, the carrot’s distinctive crunch and sweet flavor flooded his palate. ‘It’s very sweet…’

Li Wei chewed carefully, savoring the joy of his harvest. Soon, he felt a warm current flowing through his body. This feeling was both strange and familiar. This was a sign that his vitality had grown!
