This Curse Is Just Awesome

Pushing back Bahuang Yao’s phone, Chen Yu frowned. “Can’t you buy a new phone? How much is this old antique?”

“It’s… It’s passable…”

“This is passable? I want to go to UC to watch the movie. Before I open it, I won’t have any sexual interest. Do you have no money to buy it?”

“…” The girl lowered her head.

“Where’s the prize money for your top scorer?”

“I donated it…”

“You’re really a f*cking genius.” Chen Yu did not mention the Bahuang clan. Instead, he took out his phone and typed on WeChat, transferring 50,000 yuan to Bahuang Yao. “I lent it to you. Return me 60,000 yuan a year later.”

“…” Bahuang Yao clenched her phone and bit her lips.

“You think it’s too much? Can’t I earn a little too?” Chen Yu shrugged. “Anyway, I lent you the money. You can’t not return it when the time comes.”

“Phew.” Taking a deep breath, Bahuang Yao bowed solemnly. “Thank… Thank you.”

“I used you to earn money, and you’re still thanking me.”

“Thank you.”

The girl’s voice was slightly choked.

She was very attentive.

Previously at the dining table, when she took out her phone, she realized that the boy in front of her had been looking at her phone.

Now that he had ditched his teammates and chased after her, he had naturally guessed her current financial situation.

Then, he found a reason to give her face and lent her 50,000 yuan…

“Thank you.” The girl clenched the corner of her shirt and refused to raise her head.

Because she was afraid that the other party would see her red eyes.

“Get someone to sell it and return the money to you.” Chen Yu teased and turned to leave. “Get a new phone tomorrow and send me the lessons.”

“Alright…”

“Also.” Chen Yu stopped in his tracks and turned around. “If you need my help to get rid of your family, even if it’s very flat, I can still bite the bullet.”

“…”

Most of the emotions in Bahuang Yao’s heart instantly dissipated…

…

In the next few days, the three people from Class 2 separated from each other and acted on their own.

Duan Ye was a ‘mage’ and ‘gunman’, so there were indeed a lot of lessons that he needed to learn. Every day was the four points and one line of the dormitory — the Martial Qi Academy, the Weapon Training Building, the library, and the dormitory. His days were cycled just like this.

As for Bahuang Yao, she spent every day in the fighting arena, conducting combat and experimental training.

As for Chen Yu…

He took two days of basic lessons in a row.

These lessons included: ‘The Encyclopedia of the Martial Arts World’, ‘The Characteristics and Offensive Forms of Different Exotic Beasts’, ‘Some Connections Between the Tendons and Meridians in the Body and the Dantian’, and ‘The Changes in the Body Structure of Female Martial Artists After Using Martial Arts’…

Especially the last course, it greatly increased Chen Yu’s interest in martial arts, and it also allowed him to have a precise plan for his future martial arts development.

Dual cultivation of Qi and physical martial arts!

That’s right, it was the path of dual cultivation of Qi and physical martial arts.

And it was a full cultivation of the three systems of battle, law, and beast cultivation!

Before the start of the battle, he directly cast a large-scale ‘curse’ and ‘Ice Fall Technique’, and even he himself would not be spared. Then, he pulled out his long sword and swept through thousands of soldiers…

If he continued with this set of moves, it would simply be too nice…

With a goal in mind, Chen Yu did not delay any longer and immediately began to take action.

On the morning of the third day, he headed straight to the library and swiped his card to enter.

(Name: Chen Yu)

(Affiliation: Grade 1, Class 2)

(Authority: B)

According to the rules of the Beijing University Library, Grade D authority could only read on the first floor.

Grade C — second floor.

Grade B — third floor.

So on and so forth.

As a freshman, the reason why Chen Yu could have such high permission was that during the college entrance examination, Beijing University ‘signed’ the preferential treatment that he was promised.

Similar preferential treatment, in addition to the library permission, he could also go to the logistics department to collect four Qi-boosting pills every month (accumulated if not taken), get a professor lesson every month, free medical treatment, mission priority, and so on.

From the day he entered the school, Chen Yu’s starting line was different from other students.

Teaching because of ‘material’ was nothing more than…

Beep–

The glass door opened, and Chen Yu took back his student card. He entered the library and walked straight to the service staff at the service desk.

“Hello, Miss,” Chen Yu said, “Where are the basic martial arts books?”

“In the northeast corner of the first floor, I can see a sign that says ‘Basic Martial Arts’. It’s inside.”

“Okay.”

Following the direction that the waiter had pointed, Chen Yu walked quickly and entered the basic martial arts area. From the A01 row of books, he looked for the books that he might need.

“Classmate, what books are you looking for?”

Not long after, a woman who was pushing a book cart and tidying up the bookshelves came over and said, “I can help you find them.”

“I want to look for some martial arts books of the enlightenment category to learn more about martial arts.”

“Oh, there are a lot of such books.” The woman nodded and pointed at the D05 bookshelf behind her. “The basic ones are all in the D5 bookshelf. I recommend the thickest one in the middle. I borrow it more frequently.”

“Thank you, thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

Walking to the front of the D5 Bookshelf, Chen Yu immediately saw the book that the staff member was talking about. He quickly reached out with both hands and hugged it.

The reason why he used the word ‘hug’ to describe it was because the book was too thick.

He held the book and opened the last page. The number of words on the page stunned Chen Yu.

2,700+ …

“Um… that…” Chen Yu raised the book and said to the staff member in the distance, “Is it this book?”

“Yes.” The staff member nodded. “Martial Arts Enlightenment From the Beginning to the Grave.”

Chen Yu: “…”

He lowered his head and flipped to the first page. As expected, that was the name…

“That’s great. It’s so fitting. On the day I finish reading it, I’m really going to be buried.”

Holding the book in his arms, Chen Yu stood in place. After a moment of silence, he walked step by step to the front desk.

Bang!

Placing the heavy book on the counter, Chen Yu took out his student card. “Rent this.”

The librarian glanced at Chen Yu and took the student card. “How long will you rent it for?”

“Rent it until I’m buried…”

“…One year, a total of one credit.”

“Are you cursing me to live at most one year?”

“It’s a book that can only be rented for one year at most…”

…

Holding the book, ‘Martial Arts Enlightenment From the Beginning to the Grave,’ Chen Yu walked into a small forest with no one around. He sat on the ground and began to flip through the pages.

After skimming through the introduction, the catalog, and the letter addressed to the readers, Chen Yu was stunned by the complex words mixed with various ‘symbols’ and ‘equations’ as soon as he saw the first paragraph of the text.

He read the whole text for four to five minutes before he roughly understood the meaning behind it.

He tilted his head and looked at the thickness of more than 2,700 pages. He fell into deep self-doubt.

“This thing…”

“Can someone really learn it?”

Putting down the book, Chen Yu took out his phone and typed on WeChat.

[Chen Yu: Son, have you read ‘Martial Arts Enlightenment From the Beginning to the Grave’?]

[Duan Ye: I’ve read it when I was young. Why?]

[Chen Yu: Can you understand it when you were young?]

[Duan Ye: I can’t understand it, but the teachers in the school’s cram school taught me everything. ]

[Chen Yu: In the school? Cram school?]

[Duan Ye: Starting from junior high school, the teachers will take the initiative to ask if they want to transfer to the Mage Department. Once they choose to transfer, they will be able to start learning about Qi martial arts from junior high school. When they go to university, they will be able to directly learn the application of martial arts. Eh? Didn’t your teacher ask you when you were in junior high school? Could it be that you’re a bad student?]

[Chen Yu: …]

[Duan Ye: It’s the same even if you’re a physical martial arts major. Didn’t you learn the basics in high school? You can only use physical martial arts after you reach Level 1 and above in university. Why? Do you want to study Qi martial arts?]

[Chen Yu: Yes, I’m interested.]

[Duan Ye: Stop messing around. Qi martial arts are a waste of time, especially for beginners. Why do you want to learn Qi martial arts? Can’t I satisfy you?]

[Chen Yu: You’re so flirtatious.]

After sending out the last line of words, Chen Yu opened the book again, took a deep breath, and started to gnaw on it.

If he encountered something he didn’t understand, he would search on Baidu.

If he couldn’t find it, he could ask Duan Ye…

But at night, he still couldn’t hold on.

It wasn’t that he was hot-blooded for three minutes, but that learning a complicated new system required too much energy and time.

From morning to night, he had read for nearly eight hours, but he had only read 46 pages…

There were still more than 2,680 pages left.

Although this progress was not slow, Chen Yu also chose to pause.

“No.”

“My time is very valuable.”

“I can’t waste it like this…”

The knowledge system of Qi martial arts and auxiliary was too vast and independent. It was already very difficult to learn physical martial arts alone. If he wanted to master auxiliary, he would have to spend a long time studying and studying.

Moreover, once he encountered a ‘Math problem’, it was not surprising that he would be stuck for a year or so.

“Is there a shortcut…”

Holding the book, Chen Yu stood up. As he walked back to the dormitory, he frowned and thought deeply.

He was not a person who would respond to a tough situation.

Since he had made up his mind to cultivate both Qi and physical martial arts, he would not give up unless it was absolutely necessary.

Then, how to ‘fight in a roundabout way’ was the problem that he was currently thinking about.

After returning to his dormitory and sitting on the sofa under the window, Chen Yu gradually had some ideas in his mind.

“Is there any way to increase my intelligence…”

Qi martial arts required talent.

In addition to talent, martial arts also required a certain amount of thinking, logic, and abstract abilities.

The stronger these abilities were, the smoother it would be for him to learn Qi martial arts.

However, ever since the ‘World Will’ added the [Curse] on him, he had seen all sorts of attributes.

Some of these attributes he knew were useful, and some he did not.

There were some that were not too important, and some that were extremely precious.

However, from the beginning to the end, he had never heard of the appearance of the [IQ] attribute.

“IQ…”

“IQ…”

His index finger tapped on the page. Chen Yu narrowed his eyes, and an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.

He took out his phone and downloaded the slow hand and vibrato apps from the app store.

After waiting for half a minute, the installation was complete.

Chen Yu sank into the sofa like Ge You, and he was the first to click on the slow hand app.

Ear-piercing music and exaggerated laughter immediately reverberated in the room.

He braced himself and waited for the video to finish playing before swiping his finger to play the next segment.

After the next segment was played, he swiped his finger again to play the next segment…

Time passed quickly amidst the monkey’s laughter.

Ten minutes…

Thirty minutes…

Fifty minutes…

Just as Chen Yu saw that his mind was in a daze, he suddenly heard a mechanical electronic synthesizer..

[Thinking Stagnates: Learning Ability +1]
