Chapter 44 Muscular hunk, do you want to be famous?
The changes in the academic system's attributes can be seen in about two or three days, but it takes a week or even two weeks for them to fully stabilize.
This time, Lu Ming gained three attribute points.
While gaining a small bonus to appearance attributes, the "Wealth and Honor Cannot Be Moved" title was upgraded, and a small amount of constitution and memory were added.
This raised his physical condition to nine points, his appearance to ten points, and his intelligence and memory to eleven points.
The changes are significant.
The improvement in appearance is particularly noticeable and is visible to the naked eye.
The advancement to level 10 in the Academic Elite System represents a significant change in caliber, while advancements to level 8 and 9 are less substantial.
Lu Ming flew to the capital and found a convenient hotel near a well-known beauty hospital.
After all, he was just pretending to have cosmetic surgery. Every day, apart from exercising and sleeping, he spent the rest of his time studying and doing practice questions. He completed all the monthly exam papers for the second and third years of high school at Huarui Middle School.
I did alright on the exam.
If we only consider the six subjects of Chinese, Mathematics, English, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, he would rank in the thirties in the second year of high school and in the fifties in the third year.
The difference in scores compared to the top ten is not significant.
Compared to the top three, the gap is much larger.
He was more than forty points behind the top science student in his senior year, who scored over 710 points, while he only scored over 680.
My goodness, over 710 points!
This is the level of the top science student in the province!
On the night after the exam, Lu Ming analyzed his own and others' papers and felt that he still had a lot of room for improvement.
He solved the most challenging math, physics, and chemistry problems, but his knowledge of the material was not comprehensive enough.
We haven't fully adapted to the various new question types that have emerged in recent years.
Therefore, you must systematically review all the knowledge points from the three years of high school and do a lot of practice problems.
Vice Principal Miao Yuyan, who had access to the AI education platform's internal information, suddenly said in the mothers' group, "Daming, you've finished both your second and third year monthly exams! Good scores!"
"How many points did you get?"
Mei Yanping does not have a backend account on the education platform and therefore cannot see the grading results of Lu Ming's test papers for each subject.
"With a score of 680-something, barring any unforeseen circumstances, I should be able to get into Jiangsu University of Science and Technology next year!" Miao Yuyan replied in the group chat.
The group is full of beautiful, middle-aged divorced mothers with children, who are very familiar with the college entrance examination situation in the province.
Jiangsu University of Science and Technology is a top-tier 985 university that the province is doing everything it can to protect. It ranks fifth or sixth in the country and has a large number of admission slots within the province. Its admission scores are relatively lower than those of other top 985 universities.
A score of 670 is almost guaranteed to get you in; for popular majors and the Elite Foundation Program, you'll need to score ten or more points higher.
"Da Ming, you're amazing! You managed to get into a 985 university at this age!" Even Xue Meiting, a female CEO who graduated from the architecture department of Jiangnan University, couldn't help but praise her in the group chat.
"It's alright!"
Lu Ming is not happy at all right now.
Getting into a 985 university through hard work is no longer a problem, but completing the main quest (fourth part) of the academic superstar system, as well as subsequent main quests, will be much more difficult.
The system may later require him to rank among the top students in his grade, or even be the top student in his grade or the top scorer in the province or city.
That makes it even more difficult!
Unless the system adds points to continue improving his intelligence and memory attributes, the problem is that there are no side quests for these two attributes, so he can only rely on the main quests to improve them.
Several beautiful mature women were chatting more and more enthusiastically in the group.
Pan Li suddenly asked, "Da Ming, where are you traveling now, and when will you be back?"
"Daming, we've completely rearranged your staff dormitory. It'll definitely be much more comfortable now. We're just waiting for you to come back!"
Mei Yanping also hopes that Lu Ming will come back soon.
"I had a few minor cosmetic surgeries done in the capital, and it will take another week for the swelling to completely subside."
Lu Ming immediately shared his "surgery" details.
"Da Ming, you're so handsome, why would you need cosmetic surgery?"
Xue Meiting was a little incredulous, but upon closer reflection, Lu Ming did indeed value his appearance quite a bit, having previously spent hundreds of thousands on membership cards and treatments at Pan Li's beauty salon.
"I'm thinking of starting a new account, the theme of which is men who start working hard to get into university at forty, let's see if that can attract some traffic!"
Lu Ming recently came up with an even more suitable reason to explain his motivation for undergoing "cosmetic surgery".
perfect!
"No wonder you insisted on retaking the college entrance exam!" Xue Meiting seemed to have finally understood.
They want to drive traffic and sell products!
"Da Ming, a man with your height and looks is absolutely top-notch. The rest depends on whether you have greater and stronger capabilities!"
Miao Yuyan, the beautiful vice principal, suddenly offered a suggestion in the group chat.
"Um!"
Lu Ming didn't think much of it.
"Strength is important, but time, technique, and frequency are also very important!" Xue Meiting added.
"Damn it!"
Lu Ming then realized that several mature women were flirting with him!
Compared to young girls, these beautiful mature women around forty years old are truly shameless, daring to utter the most outrageous and suggestive words.
Especially after everyone got to know each other better.
Teasing this muscular hunk is as casual and skillful as drinking water for them, and they even enjoy it!
next day!
Considering the significant changes in his appearance over this period, Lu Ming moved to a star-rated hotel with a gym.
When you upgrade your appearance attribute to level 7, 8, or 9, it's all about optimizing the existing attributes, so the overall changes aren't that significant.
The difference after reaching level 10 is striking; even the shape of the face changes, and the facial features become almost perfect, with excellent skin tone, lip color, and eyes.
When Lu Ming's appearance attribute is nine points, he is already considered very handsome among ordinary people. After it reaches ten points, he is further enhanced to the level of a male celebrity.
He looks very young, only about twenty-three or twenty-four years old.
Even cosmetic surgery is the kind that costs a lot of money and requires top experts to achieve the desired look.
At the same time, once the physical fitness level reaches nine points, the effect is also quite good.
Lu Ming switched to a star-rated hotel with a gym and worked out hard for another seven or eight days. He didn't gain much muscle, but his strength improved rapidly.
Muscle explosiveness, ligament resilience, cardiopulmonary function, and so on, have all shown significant improvement.
It wasn't until mid-to-late October that he finally took a plane back to the provincial capital, without informing Mei Yanping and the others beforehand.
Because the provincial capital is surrounded by mountains to the north and west, and Jiangzhou International Airport is far from the city center, it was already past 11 p.m. when I took the special car back to the school dormitory.
After he turned on the overhead light in the dormitory, he immediately noticed that the entire room was completely different from before.
The furniture, appliances, and bed have all been replaced.
The bed is slightly narrower, and there are two more full-size sofa chairs, as well as a complete set of desk and bookcase.
The bathroom has also undergone significant changes, with the electric water heater and front-loading washing machine now being the latest models. However, the round, bulging panda hook remains unchanged, still attached next to the water heater's regulating valve.
After this renovation, the entire staff dormitory looks warm and cozy, and the various green plants and decorations are more interesting and full of life.
Lu Ming was very satisfied. After taking a few photos and sharing them on his WeChat Moments, he also shared a few selfies in the mothers' group as a way of thanking the mature women for their efforts and care.
"Da Ming, you're so handsome now! Your good looks are making me want to lick the screen!"
Miao Yuyan, the beautiful vice principal, reacted with lightning speed.
"Da Ming, you really know how to spend money. You're now a top-tier muscular hunk. Now that you're back in the province, are you going to start becoming an internet celebrity?"
Based on her experience in beauty salons, Pan Li judged that Lu Ming's face had cost at least a million yuan.
She's absolutely stunning.
"Daming, do you want to attract traffic? Do you need to arrange a professional MCN team to cooperate?" As the female chairman of the Jiangtai Group, Mei Yanping couldn't wait to make a move.
Of course, you have to pay a price if you want to become famous!
"Let's wait until after the college entrance exam to start attracting traffic. No need to rush, let's stabilize first!"
Lu Ming had no intention of becoming an internet celebrity; he was just trying to find the perfect excuse for getting plastic surgery and taking the college entrance examination.
"Alright, let's form a small team and work it out slowly." Mei Yanping could only suppress her excitement.
With such a great figure and such a handsome face, which middle-aged woman could resist, and which female CEO could resist?
"Da Ming, you must be tired today. It's so late, go take a shower and go to bed early. We'll all get together tomorrow at noon!"
Xue Meiting made a suggestion in the group chat.
"Yes, take a shower and go to bed early. You need to pay more attention to skincare in the future!" Mei Yanping immediately agreed.
"Daming, taking a hot bath helps with blood circulation and detoxification. Taking a shower for ten minutes every morning and evening can keep your skin in better condition."
As the owner of the beauty salon, Pan Li quickly offered her professional advice.
