"Skill Upgrade Card?"

Lin Xian was momentarily stunned, then a bit disappointed because he currently only had one skill.

And it was a rather unreliable skill—driving a Ferrari with one hand...

"Wait a minute!"

After carefully reading the item description again, he realized that he might have misunderstood.

Initially, he thought the skill described in the item was referring to the skills shown on the system interface.

But after noticing the details in the description, he suddenly realized.

It could also upgrade skills that he had not yet mastered!

The meaning was clear: aside from system skills, any skill, whether mastered or not, could be upgraded.

Now that was impressive.

For example, take the piano.

Lin Xian had never touched a piano, but after using the upgrade card, he would be able to play piano skills. Of course, it would only be at the beginner level.

Or take his guitar skills—right now they were at the beginner level, but after using the upgrade card, they would instantly become expert-level, saving him years of practice time.

Lin Xian couldn't help but gasp in amazement at the thought of it.

What a great item!

The [Silver Skill Upgrade Card] could save Lin Xian a tremendous amount of time.

What is the most expensive thing in the world?

Undoubtedly, time is the most expensive!

A moment of time can't be bought with gold.

To put it into perspective, it's easy to reach the beginner level in a skill. For instance, in guitar, someone with average talent could learn the basics in just three to five months. But to progress further, reaching an expert level would require three to five years of continuous practice.

As for professional or master levels, that would require even more time.

Many people spend their entire lives trying to reach the master level, but it's not guaranteed—at that stage, apart from time, talent becomes the key.

Such a powerful item, costing only 300,000—this was an absolute bargain!

Buy, buy, buy!

Without hesitation, Lin Xian immediately clicked to purchase the [Silver Skill Upgrade Card].

Host: Lin Xian

Level: LV3

LV3 Privilege Reward: Earn 0.4 yuan per blink

Upgrade Experience: 841239/1000000 (Experience can only be obtained through consumption; borrowed or earned money cannot grant experience!)

System Mall: 23:59:54 left until next refresh

Items: [Silver Skill Upgrade Card] *1

Skills: [One-Handed Ferrari Driving]

Amount: 39,808.7 yuan

...

After purchasing the item, he had less than 40,000 yuan left.

However, his upgrade experience increased significantly, and he was now only 160,000 experience points away from reaching LV4.

Lin Xian didn't pay much attention to his balance, since his daily income of 7,680 yuan would quickly make up for it.

What he was focused on was how to use the [Silver Skill Upgrade Card].

Or rather, which skill to use it on.

First, skills that he hadn't mastered were ruled out, since using the upgrade card on those would offer poor value for money.

After thinking it over, Lin Xian decided to use the card on his guitar skills.

His guitar skills were already at the beginner level, and upgrading them would make him an expert, directly saving him three to five years of practice.

"Use [Silver Skill Upgrade Card], specify skill: guitar technique!"

"Ding~"

"Detected that the host's guitar technique is at the beginner level. Would you like to use the item?"

"Confirm!"

In an instant, Lin Xian felt a slight chill in his brain before everything returned to normal.

Looking himself over, he realized he hadn't changed physically.

But his proficiency in various guitar techniques had improved. Some areas that he had once struggled with suddenly became second nature, and everything clicked into place effortlessly.

The sensation was quite amazing, and Lin Xian couldn't resist the urge to play the guitar.

"My system is amazing!"

After praising the system, Lin Xian thought that he should cultivate more hobbies and learn additional skills.

It didn't need to be anything spectacular; just reaching the beginner level would be enough.

Since the system mall refreshes every 24 hours, and he was bound to get more skill upgrade cards in the future, it made sense to learn more skills in advance. It could improve his temperament and personal cultivation, so why not?

"I'll start when I get back tomorrow!"

After sending a good night message to Yan Xiaoman, Lin Xian turned off the lights and went to sleep.

...

The next day.

6:30 AM.

Lin Xian got up as usual, washed up, and changed the metal strap of his watch to a rubber one.

Once he finished, he headed straight to the top-floor gym.

The young woman from yesterday, who wore the same watch as him, was already there, running on the treadmill.

"Good morning!"

Lin Xian greeted her with a smile and put on his headphones, starting his own jog.

Half an hour later, Lin Xian got off the treadmill, and the young woman handed him a bottle of water again.

"Thank you!"

After taking a sip of water, Lin Xian suddenly said, "I'm leaving today."

"I'm staying for a few more days. Maybe we'll meet again by chance!" The young woman smiled.

"Until next time!"

After returning to his room for a quick shower, Lin Xian packed up his backpack and went downstairs to have breakfast.

While eating, Yan Xiaoman sent him a message on WeChat: "Lin Xian, I won't be able to see you off today."

Lin Xian replied: "It's okay, are you going out later?"

Yan Xiaoman quickly responded: "No, my aunt seems to suspect that I'm in a relationship and is trying to pry it out of me."

"Ha!" Lin Xian nearly choked on his milk, coughing a few times before typing: "Then just admit it, do I really look that embarrassing?"

Yan Xiaoman replied: "Not really, it's just that if my aunt finds out, she'll tell my parents. I'll deal with it later."

As they chatted, Lin Xian finished his breakfast.

He slung his shoulder bag on, checked out at the front desk, and then set off on his journey back home.

...

By the time Lin Xian returned to Jiangzhen City, it was already the afternoon.

Instead of going home, he took a taxi straight to the family restaurant.

Since it was past mealtime, the restaurant was unusually quiet.

When he walked in, Wang Hongmei was pleasantly surprised and said, "When did you get back? You didn't even call ahead."

"Just got here!"

Wang Hongmei asked with concern, "Have you eaten?"

"Nope!"

The fast food on the high-speed train was terrible, so Lin Xian had only eaten a few chips to fill his stomach.

Seeing that he hadn't had lunch yet, Wang Hongmei shouted to the kitchen, "Lin Guodong, cook two dishes for your son!"

"Yo, Lin Xian's back?"

Hearing his voice, Lin Guodong walked out of the kitchen with a cigarette in his mouth.

Lin Xian put down his backpack, took out the jade bracelet and the lighter, and said with a smile, "Mom, Dad, I bought you some gifts while I was in Modu City."

Hearing that their son had brought them gifts, the couple felt extremely pleased and hurried to take the presents.
