Standing next to the river, the Harbinger of Doom came face to face with EZ who turned out to be Ezreal. Chen Mu prompted Doom to dance as though saying, “Come fight me! Come fight me!”

Ezreal cast Q on the spot while Chen Mu hurriedly moved out of the way. After about two seconds, Ezreal cast another Q. However, this time, Ezreal predicted Chen Mu’s movements before casting his Q, and the skillshot hit Chen Mu right in the face.

“Whoa, hell, why is his CD so low?” Chen Mu bustled about clumsily as he moved all over the place to prevent his enemy from predicting his movements. Yet, he only managed to dodge a small portion of Ezreal’s Qs.

Three minutes later, the System prompted.

“Among the hundred Qs that were cast, the Host managed to dodge only fifty-six of them. Objective not met. Please continue.”

Chen Mu started to focus more. What made it more difficult was that this Ezreal was not lacking in movement skills either. Ezreal could cast Mystic Shot, his Q ability, while he twisted left and right. This made it harder for Chen Mu to dodge his skillshots.

The perfect method to dodge straight-line abilities like such was to move at a right angle toward the opposite direction.

Imagine the ability as a straight line and the target, a dot you controlled. How would you move the dot away from the straight line in the shortest amount of time possible?

Yes, by moving at a ninety-degree angle away from the straight line. Chen Mu had figured out the method. However, the real difficulty lied in determining the angle at a fast speed because Ezreal was constantly moving around as well.

Testing out his method for the first time, another torturous half an hour passed with Chen Mu in his training session. Chen Mu managed to dodge seventy-five of Ezreal’s one hundred Q casts.

It was a real challenge for Chen Mu as he had to think calmly but respond instantaneously as well. Even though he knew how to dodge, it was not as easy for him to move accordingly.

[Mission accomplished. Received one hundred points. Current accumulative points: one thousand points. The Host may draw one time for your reward. Do you want to claim it now?]

“Yes!” Chen Mu confirmed.

[Ding! The Host has obtained a Height Increase card. The Host has grown taller by one centimeter in height!]

“Hmm? What sort of joke is this? There are things unrelated to League of Legends like height in the lot?” asked Chen Mu.

“Affirmative. Other than game skills, the things you can obtain from the System’s lot is beyond one’s imagination.”

Chen Mu hurriedly compared his height to the wall behind his door. Before this, he had measured his height on the wall and drawn a line to indicate his height. After comparing his current height to the mark on the wall, he found that he really had grown taller by a bit.

Chen Mu’s height was considered average at a hundred and seventy centimeters. If what the System said was true, Chen Mu was now a hundred and seventy-one centimeters. That was good news for Chen Mu.

A tall man was more likely to attract female counterparts. The logic behind it was in the genetics embedded deep in people’s bones. From primitive times, the taller the primitive human male was, the more likely they were able to protect his family and clan. Therefore, in the eyes of girls, one point added to a man’s height meant one point added to the man’s attractiveness!

It was a good draw. With that floating around in this mind, Chen Mu fell asleep happily. Thus, he steadily dealt with his exams and memorized champion stats. In the twenty-four hours that passed that day, Chen Mu’s ability to learn could be considered more powerful than the peak of his studiousness in Year 3 Junior.

After all, Chen Mu was a man of his own back then. He had forced himself to memorize all sorts of things by staying up every single day. Now that the System had arranged a tutor for him, the rate at which he learned about League of Legends each day was considerably high.

The second he woke up the next morning, Chen Mu received another mission from the System.

“Ding! The thirty times experience card should not be wasted. The Host is required to increase to Level 30 within three days to challenge stronger opponents. Success will grant you a hundred points and the same amount will be deducted for failure.” The System indicated.

Therefore, Chen Mu had no choice but to switch on the computer the moment he climbed out of bed before he started grinding unwillingly.
