When system cheat becomes rampant!

"I really can get other people's quest rewards, how bizarre!"

Xiang Beifei weighed the Soul Condensing Pill in his hand, his gaze flickering slightly for a moment, finding it quite strange.

This wasn't the first time he had taken someone else's quest reward.

In the morning, the auntie selling steamed buns had a task from the Little Food God System, "Gather five thousand wealth values to exchange for five thousand dollars and upgrade her shop."

Xiang Beifei bought two buns, which just helped her complete the task, but she found that after exchanging, the money was gone.

The money mysteriously appeared in Xiang Beifei's pocket.

Because Xiang Beifei bought two buns, he just happened to help the auntie complete her task.

However, Xiang Beifei still chose to discreetly drop the money on the ground and reminded the auntie that there was something on the ground, returning the money to her.

Ever since he could see other people's systems, he found things were very off.

When others were completing tasks issued by their systems, if the tasks involved Xiang Beifei, or if Xiang Beifei helped them complete the tasks, then the rewards issued by the systems ended up in Xiang Beifei's hands.

Just like Professor Yang's Master Dao System, when he criticized Xiang Beifei, he gained prestige value for teachers, and when the task was completed, the rewards ended up with Xiang Beifei.

He didn't understand why this was happening, just felt like he had become an anomaly in this system world.

Xiang Beifei looked at the Soul Condensing Pill in his hand; such a pill could enhance his spiritual power, undoubtedly a great medicine, very rare for those cultivating spiritual power techniques.

"Then I might as well reluctantly accept it."

Xiang Beifei examined the Soul Condensing Pill and placed the pill into his pocket.

The homeroom teacher always thought about scolding him to complete his own system tasks, and along the way, he always became the target of the homeroom teacher's tasks, grabbing some rewards...

Shouldn't be anything wrong with that, right?

He felt the real Master Dao System should be about educating people, not nitpicking and unfairly criticizing students.

Although he had this peculiar ability, he still chose to use it selectively. There were some people's system rewards he would take, and others he would not.

Xiang Beifei could refuse the money from the bun-selling auntie, but this kind of reward, he felt completely justified in taking.

—

Yang Hua's face was livid; he was almost driven mad by his own system. He let the students self-study for an entire class period while he kept questioning his own system, protesting about where his quest rewards had gone.

But the system always coldly replied, "Reward has been issued, please select the next task."

Yang Hua was nearly at his breaking point.

He understood he couldn't contend with the system because it was very rigid, wouldn't negotiate anything, and there was no chance of reconfiguring it, so he gave up and continued to choose the next task.

The class period passed quickly.

Yang Hua slammed his hand down on the desk and said, "Everyone, gather on the sports field, get ready for today's Awakening System ceremony!"

All the classmates got excited and rushed out of the classroom.

The "Awakening System Ceremony" was a turning point in the life of every student taking the college entrance examination and was crucial in determining their future; everyone hoped they would awaken a high-level system.

"Finally, the system awakening, Xiang Beifei, what kind of system do you think you'll awaken?" Kong Xiuwen closed his book and turned to ask.

Xiang Beifei rested his chin on his hand, what kind of system would he awaken?

He had never really considered this question.

Actually, he thought that what system he awoke didn't matter.

What systems others awoke was what's most important.

Before Xiang Beifei could answer, Kong Xiuwen started talking to himself, "I'm not asking for much, just to awaken an S-rank system would be enough, then I wouldn't have to be scolded by the homeroom teacher every day. Haven't you noticed he always likes to pick faults with us two? If I awaken an S-rank system, let's see if he dares to scold me in the future!"

"S-rank systems are quite rare, aren't they?" Xiang Beifei asked.

Kong Xiuwen nodded and said, "Yes, they say it's a five percent chance, usually not more than three per class every year."

"What about people who have awakened an SR system?" Xiang Beifei asked again.

"SR systems are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, a one in fifty thousand chance! The last time someone in our school awakened such a rare system was five years ago! That person was directly admitted to an elite university!"

Kong Xiuwen spoke enviously of the system; if he could awaken such a powerful system, his future achievements would be limitless!

"Come on, come on, everyone has gone to the sports field, it's just us left."

Kong Xiuwen stood up and hurriedly urged Xiang Beifei. Xiang Beifei didn't linger any longer and followed Kong Xiuwen to the sports field.

The sports field was already packed with people, not only students from the first and second year of high school but also parents who had come especially to see their children's system potential.

The Awakening System, comparable to filling out college entrance preferences, was a life-changing event!

Every parent constantly paid attention to it!

They all hoped their children would awaken an R-level or higher system, which not only gave extra points in their college entrance exams but also brightened their future prospects!

Beifei Xiang and Kong Xiuwen squeezed into their class lineup, where the class monitor Zhuo Jing was maintaining order.

The homeroom teacher, Yang Hua, stood in front of the line, lips pursed, face ashen; seeing Beifei and Xiuwen arriving last filled him with anger once more.

Normally, he would have scolded them by now to boost his own prestige value as a teacher.

But with so many people around, along with the presence of many parents, he restrained his anger.

Beifei glanced around; most students had not yet awakened any system, yet the teachers and parents had.

He briefly looked around, noticing the various systems in play.

For instance, Beifei's PE teacher had awakened the "Modesty System"; he seemed to have just completed a task this morning:

[Yield PE class to the math teacher, Modesty Points +2].

No wonder what all the main subject teachers repeatedly said was, "Your PE teacher is busy, I'll take this class."

The PE teacher always had something on every time his class was about to start. So approachable and empathetic—apparently, it was because he had the Modesty System and often willingly gave up his classes.

Case solved!

Then there was Beifei's physics teacher, who had astonishingly awakened the "Hypnosis System," and had also successfully completed a task in the last class:

[Successfully put 9 students to sleep, Hypnosis Value +9]

The physics teacher's lectures were dry as dust, akin to chanting scriptures, and he liked to schedule his class right after lunch.

His students struggled to stay awake during physics, believing they lacked a talent for the subject.

Thinking about it now, the physics teacher was really crafty!

"Hand over your phone!"

Just as Beifei was pondering, the head disciplinarian suddenly barked at a senior student in front.

The student reluctantly pulled out his phone.

"I'm doing this for your own good! School time is for studying—how can you casually bring a phone to school? It can easily distract you from studying, and at your age, it's easy to be dazzled by all the flashy things online."

The disciplinarian lectured the student earnestly.

However, Beifei saw the disciplinarian's system interface:

[Host: Zhao Gang]

[N-level, Confiscation System]

[Realm: Late Qi-Controlling Stage]

...

[You confiscated a student's phone, Confiscation Value +1]

Apparently, the disciplinarian liked confiscating students' phones purely for his Confiscation System!

This type of system, if not used as a city urban management officer, then serving as a school disciplinarian wasn't bad either.

Of course, not all teachers had systems related to their professions, some teachers' systems weren't connected to their jobs at all, like the Chinese teacher from the class next door, who had awakened the "Suffering System."

Every loss he took made his spiritual power grow stronger.

And the Chinese teacher turned out to be a late-stage spiritual power practitioner of the Qi-Controlling Realm.

Everyone's awakened system ultimately aimed at increasing strength, and while some systems enhanced physical agility, speed, or strength, naturally there were also systems that boosted one's spiritual power, soul strength, and more.

The more Beifei saw, the more fascinated he became—every person in this parallel world had their own system, which determined their personalities and modes of action.

Oftentimes, when people performed an action, they were doing it to complete a system task rather than acting on their own volition.

Sometimes when you saw the opposite party furious enough to erupt, you thought you had gained an advantage, but actually, it was just because their system made them let you benefit.

Of course, this was except for Beifei.

Others wouldn't know about someone else's system, so they could only speculate about a person.

But Beifei could see everyone's system tasks crystal clear.
