[Name: Lin Zichen]

[Age: 16]

[Biological Level: Ordinary (Fifth Tier)]

[Biological Attributes: Use It or Lose It, Innate Wisdom, Survival of the Fittest, Blessing of Water Fusion, Natural Selection and Eye of the Sky]

Unknowingly, he had already acquired six biological attributes.

His biological level had evolved to the fifth tier of the ordinary rank.

And he was only sixteen years old.

Looking at his personal status panel, Lin Zichen felt a surge of excitement and hope for the future.

At this growth rate, he was destined to become a saint of the flesh, a beacon of humanity blessed with powerful biological attributes.

When that day came, both the Kyoto child prodigy and the mechanical genius girl would pale in comparison before him.

After thinking about this for a while, Lin Zichen gathered his focus and walked toward the rooftop of the mall building to test the effects of Eye of the Sky.

Moments later, he stood at the highest point, overlooking the city.

Everything in his field of vision appeared crystal clear.

He could see a mosquito flying several dozen meters above.

He could see every passerby walking along the roadside below.

He could even see a couple several hundred meters away wrestling in a room through their window.

The pair suddenly felt a chill run down their spines, as if some terrifying predator had locked onto them.

The man, thinking someone was spying on them with binoculars, cursed, got out of bed, gave the window a middle finger and quickly pulled the curtains shut.

‘Both the range and dynamic clarity of my vision have far surpassed human limits. The Raptors' eyesight truly is remarkable.’

Lin Zichen sighed, recalling the high-definition scenes he had just witnessed.

Leaving the rooftop, he returned to the lower floors where Aberrant Beast meat was sold.

He wandered around for a bit before stopping at a freezer labeled “Stealth Dragon.”

Having completed the Violent Eagle Compendium, he now needed to open a new one.

The Stealth Dragon’s biological attributes intrigued him.

Despite its name, the Stealth Dragon wasn’t a true dragon but rather a lizard renowned for its camouflage abilities.

It could suppress its life energy and presence to an extreme degree, allowing it to hide from predators and ambush prey.

Its skill in concealment made it difficult to capture.

As a result, its meat was extremely expensive—8,888 yuan per jin.

At that price, 100 jin would cost nearly 900,000 yuan.

With his writing income averaging 100,000 yuan per month, it would take nearly a year of saving to unlock the Stealth Dragon Compendium.

It was expensive, but worth every cent.

Lin Zichen decided that his next Compendium would be the Stealth Dragon’s, determined to save up and buy the meat once he had enough.

Time passed quickly and soon it was the end of December.

That Friday night, Shanhai High School hosted its annual Campus Top Ten Singers Competition.

In the monotonous routine of high school life, this entertainment-focused event drew a massive crowd.

Many students stayed after school, grabbing dinner at the cafeteria or nearby food stalls before gathering at the sports field to watch the show.

Besides students and teachers, many parents were present as well.

Most were local residents dropping by for fun after dinner, while some were the families of contestants there to cheer on their children.

Among them were Shen Qinghan’s parents, Shen Jianye and Xu Meng, seated below the stage waiting to cheer for their daughter.

Lin Zichen’s parents, Lin Yansheng and Zhang Wanxin, were also there. Having long treated Shen Qinghan like their own daughter, they came to support her as well.

Meanwhile, backstage, both Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan were busy preparing.

As a contestant, Shen Qinghan sat before a mirror getting her makeup done.

The person doing her makeup was none other than Lin Zichen.

Seeing this, Li Chuxin, who was standing nearby, couldn’t help but exclaim in disbelief, “Zichen, you’re a guy and you know how to do makeup? That’s amazing! You’re totally an all-rounder!”

“I used to play around as a kid,” Lin Zichen explained, “I’d steal my mom’s cosmetics and mess around on Hanhan’s face. After a while, I got the hang of it.”

In front of him, Shen Qinghan silently muttered to herself, “Liar.”

‘Xiao Chen, you weren’t just messing around! Even the first time you tried, you did it beautifully—Aunt Wanxin and Mom both praised you as a genius.’

“Geniuses really are different,” Li Chuxin sighed, “I started learning makeup from my mom in sixth grade and even now my technique’s not one-tenth as good as yours.”

Lin Zichen’s talent was overwhelming.

In just half a semester of high school, whether in typically male or female fields, he excelled in all of them with such brilliance that others couldn’t even feel motivated to compete.

There was only deep admiration and an unshakable sense of inadequacy.

“Zichen, after you finish Hanhan’s makeup, could you help me too? The look you gave her is just so beautiful. I want one like that!” Li Chuxin pleaded, eyes full of hope.

Lin Zichen was about to politely refuse, but before he could speak, Shen Qinghan said, “Of course he can. We’re all in the same close-knit group.”

Seeing Shen Qinghan say so, Lin Zichen nodded with a smile. “Alright, I’ll do your makeup later.”

“Thank you, Zichen! Thank you, Hanhan!” Li Chuxin beamed, grateful to both.

After all, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan were inseparable—a well-known fact around school.

About ten minutes later, Lin Zichen finished Shen Qinghan’s makeup.

Her eyebrows were slender, her eyes bright and moist, her lips soft and pink, with a light blush on her cheeks that made her look dazzling.

Even Lin Zichen, who had applied it himself, couldn’t help but be captivated.

“Why are you staring at me like that...”

Feeling flustered under his gaze, Shen Qinghan blushed deeply, turning her face away as her fingers fidgeted with her hair.

Lin Zichen smiled warmly and said honestly, “Because you’re beautiful.”

His words struck directly at her heart, filling her with both joy and shyness.
