Chapter 5: The System's Ruthless Power

In the middle of the night, he even started practicing boxing.

Sure enough, after just five punches at the wall, Zhao An had learned modern fighting styles: Muay Thai, judo, wrestling, and military combatives.

"Fitness Expert: Work out five times, gain all fitness knowledge, and physical ability reaches level eight. Future achievements add Combat Expert and Physical Expert."

"Combat Expert: Box five times, gain all boxing knowledge and skills, gain all combat experience, learn unknown fighting techniques faster, and add the achievement King of Combat."

"King of Combat: Defeat five people, and from now on you will never lose a fight. You can even dodge bullets and artillery shells!"

"Physical Expert: Train continuously for five hours, physical ability rises to the maximum, sleep time is greatly reduced, and only two hours of sleep are needed to recover full energy. Future power and meditation routes can be unlocked, energy recovery speed is doubled, common illnesses are immune, and future physical enhancement can be unlocked (medical technology route required)."

After seeing these options, Zhao An was stunned beyond belief.

These rewards had already gone far beyond common sense. Was this an encyclopedia? No, it was basically a cheat sheet for everything!

"Is surviving a disaster really this powerful?" Zhao An clenched his fists, a surging force rippling through his muscles. Every cell in his body seemed to contain explosive power.

In just one night, Zhao An had turned into a muscular man. His appearance had not changed all that much, but his muscles were denser now, and he had biceps and a defined eight-pack, with a perfectly sculpted physique. If he went into an idol boy group, he would still be top-tier.

Even his temperament had changed a little. He had become more confident, with a sly edge to him.

Just one day of experience had already been far more exciting than all the years he had spent working odd jobs in his previous life. Not only had he fucked the mature beauty he had longed for, completing her sexual debut with his own body, but he had also gained a stronger physique.

Thinking back on it, Zhao An felt as if he were dreaming. He glanced at the clock; there were still two hours before class started. He closed his eyes and naturally drifted off to sleep.

When he woke up, Zhao An took out his phone and started selling off his stocks.

The five thousand shares he bought yesterday had surged to two hundred thousand by the opening bell. Zhao An immediately sold them, because in another two hours this stock would drop again. There was no need to keep timing the market down to the minute; buying and selling stocks always came with a window of opportunity.

Looking at the two hundred thousand in his account, Zhao An's heart suddenly thudded hard several times. In his previous life, he had worked for so long and never once seen two hundred thousand. Hell, not even one hundred thousand. That alone proved how much of a failure his life had been!

This two hundred thousand would be the capital he used to rise!

After getting himself together, Zhao An headed off to school. Campus life was far from boring, especially at this early stage. It could help him settle his mindset and carefully plan for the future. He could also observe some targets. He still remembered all the people at school who had bullied him before, and now he planned to pay each of them back, one by one!

He rode his bicycle to the school gate and happened to see his friend Zhang Chang. The one driving him was Aunt Xia, Xia Yaxuan, who had helped him with his first time last night.

Her pretty face was rosy and radiant, with exquisite light makeup and the rich charm of a mature woman flooding from her in waves. Having worked as a host for years gave Xia Yaxuan a distinctive air of elegance, and when she wore a tailored women's suit, she also carried herself with a refined dignity.

Just thinking about what happened last night made Zhao An even more determined to get Aunt Xia into his bed. So what if she was his friend's mother? He would not limit himself by morality. If he wanted something, he would get it. Otherwise, what was the point of being reborn?

"Hey, why are you showing up so late today? You used to be here early," Zhang Chang said with a laugh, greeting him as usual.

"Pretty normal, good morning, Aunt Xia." Zhao An smiled and nodded. He always had trouble forgetting this beautiful, mature friend's mother.

Xia Yaxuan also smiled and nodded. "Good morning, Xiao An. Thanks for last night."

That made Zhao An's heart skip. Could she have noticed something? "It was nothing, just a small favor. Auntie, you look even prettier than usual today."

Xia Yaxuan narrowed her beautiful eyes into a crescent smile. "Thank you. You're very sweet. I'm going to work now. Bye!"

Zhao An waved and watched Xia Yaxuan leave.

"Come on, let's go. What's so interesting?" Zhang Chang did not seem strange at all.

"Looking at beautiful women is only natural," Zhao An said with a shake of his head and a smile. The next second, he heard Zhang Chang's inner thoughts: "Is this guy fantasizing about my mom? My mom really is such a temptress."

Hearing that, Zhao An added with a smile, "Don't you think Aunt Xia is beautiful?"

"Tch, do you have ideas about my mom?" Zhang Chang said with a teasing smile. In his heart, though, he was thinking, "Does this guy really like my mom? My mom got fucked by a man in my own grade? That's kind of interesting."

"Haha, everybody likes beautiful women. If I were looking for a girlfriend, I'd definitely want one as pretty and sexy as Aunt Xia," Zhao An said with a laugh. It would take some time before he could fully lure his friend into cuckold fantasies.

Zhang Chang seemed to be thinking it over. His cuckold fetish was already starting to take shape. Whenever he saw his stunning mother, he would think about her being humiliated by a man. Growing up in a wealthy environment gave rise to all kinds of bizarre behavior and fetishes.

When Zhao An got to class, his grades were good, but he was not among the absolute top students. He was solidly above average, but not elite.

As soon as he entered the classroom, he saw the class beauty he had once had a crush on. She was pretty and had a sweet voice, with fair skin and soft short hair that made her look fresh and neat. Her delicate oval face was flawless and pure. This was exactly what a wonderful school romance should feel like!

Before his rebirth, Zhao An had barely spoken a few words to this class beauty, who also served as class monitor. It was all because he felt he was not worthy of her and that they simply were not the same kind of people. This class monitor was a rich and beautiful girl, and her family was said to be quite wealthy, with assets of several million.

How could a loser like him have had the courage to strike up a conversation with her? He still needed to make money first.
