Before long, all the contestants had checked in.

A PE teacher hosting the event began organizing each class for the opening ceremony.

During this time, the contestants were all warming up in the middle of the field.

“Xiao Chen, I bought you a sports drink. They say drinking this can boost performance. Do you want some?”

Shen Qinghan walked over to Lin Zichen, who was stretching and handed him a can of drink with a bull logo on it.

Lin Zichen felt it wouldn’t do much and he didn’t need outside help anyway, but since Shen Qinghan bought it, he took a sip without hesitation.

“How does it feel, Xiao Chen?”

“Seems to work a little, I feel more energetic.”

Lin Zichen told a harmless lie.

Hearing this, Shen Qinghan smiled and gave him a cheering gesture, “Xiao Chen, I’m waiting for you to bring back three gold medals so we can take photos together.”

“I will,” Lin Zichen said with confidence.

The martial arts team boy nearby laughed at his confidence.

About half an hour later.

The opening ceremony finally ended.

The competition officially began!

The first of Lin Zichen’s three events was shot put, followed by the high jump and finally the 100m sprint as the finale.

“Junior Zichen, good luck, I’m sure you’ll win first place!”

While he queued for the shot put, a girl waved at him from the crowd.

Lin Zichen smiled politely in response, nothing more.

The martial arts team boy ahead of him grew restless. That girl was his crush.

Soon it was the boy’s turn.

He picked up the shot put, spun his body and hurled it forward.

“15.67 meters!” shouted the referee.

The crowd gasped in awe at the result.

Lin Zichen raised his eyebrows. For a middle schooler, that was impressive—enough to qualify as a top-level athlete in his previous life.

But this world was different. Humans here were far stronger physically.

As the boy walked away from the line, he glanced back at Lin Zichen with a smug look.

Lin Zichen found it strange, not knowing why the boy looked so proud.

“Xiao Chen, go win the gold medal!”

Not far away, Shen Qinghan clenched her tiny fists and cheered for him.

Smiling, Lin Zichen returned the gesture, then casually picked up the shot put and gave it a push.

Like it was fired from a cannon, it flew an incredible distance.

The PE teacher recording results was stunned, then rushed with the tape measure.

“20.12 meters!”

The announcement drew shocked exclamations from the crowd.

Faces were filled with disbelief.

Especially the martial arts team boy, whose jaw dropped wide enough to swallow the shot put.

‘Impossible! How could a first-year throw over 20 meters?!’

He slapped his own face to make sure he wasn’t dreaming. The pain proved it was real.

The people nearby looked at him in confusion, not understanding why he hit himself.

“Xiao Chen, you’re amazing!”

Shen Qinghan ran over excitedly with her phone, having just taken pictures.

Lin Zichen patted her head and smiled, “That’s one gold medal down. Just two more to go. Save the photos for after the meet.”

He then competed in the high jump and 100m sprint.

As expected, he easily took first place in both, securing three gold medals.

Meanwhile, the martial arts team boy, who had bragged about defeating him, ended up with three silvers, utterly defeated.

“Junior Zichen, you’re incredible! All gold medals, I admire you so much!”

“Junior Zichen, I bought you some water!”

“Junior Zichen! Take mine! It’s an energy drink, it’ll help you recover faster!”

After receiving his three gold medals on stage, Lin Zichen was surrounded by enthusiastic senior girls, blocking his way.

Outside the circle, Shen Qinghan held a sports drink but couldn’t get through.

Seeing this, Lin Zichen squeezed his way out and walked over to her, taking the drink gratefully and drinking deeply.

“Xiao Chen, you’re so popular. Even third-year girls are your fangirls,” Shen Qinghan said enviously.

Lin Zichen capped the bottle with a smile, “I don’t need that many fangirls. Having you as mine is enough.”

“I’m not your fangirl, I’m your childhood friend!” Shen Qinghan pouted.

Lin Zichen only chuckled without replying.

The surrounding girls looked on in envy.

They couldn’t help but envy Shen Qinghan. An ordinary girl, yet her childhood friend was handsome, smart and an amazing athlete—it was like a fairy tale with Cinderella and the prince.

Feeling the envious stares, Shen Qinghan’s heart swelled with joy. Having Lin Zichen as her childhood friend made her feel like she owned the whole world.

After finishing the drink, they took lots of photos together.

Satisfied, they returned to class, packed up and biked home together.

Because the school was far, Zhang Wanxin had bought Lin Zichen a bicycle so he could give Shen Qinghan rides.

On the way back, Lin Zichen suddenly remembered something. He shifted his consciousness into the void.

And finally, he saw the long-awaited message.
