Chapter 2: One Yuan Flash Sale System
"Am I hallucinating?"
Chen Pingan thought, his face full of suspicion.
Of course, he knew what the System was.
But Chen Pingan also knew that the System was fictionalized in novels.
Systems shouldn't appear in reality.
That's why Chen Pingan suspected he was hallucinating.
But then again, he had undergone Rebirth himself.
If something impossible like Rebirth happened, having a System attached to him seemed quite normal too.
It was perfectly normal for someone who underwent Rebirth to have a System.
"System, are you there?" Despite his suspicion, Chen Pingan still called out silently in his heart.
A System Interface instantly flashed into existence before Chen Pingan.
This was a semi-transparent virtual interface, appearing before Chen Pingan like a transparent screen.
The System Interface was also very simple.
Because the System Interface only had one function.
At the top of the System Interface was the System Name.
The System Name: One Yuan Flash Sale System.
System Function: Capable of conducting One Yuan Flash Sales.
The System Interface would refresh four items daily, but only one item could be flash-sold per day.
And the price for the flash sale was only one Yuan.
This was the One Yuan Flash Sale System.
The currency used for the System's flash sales was one Yuan in cash.
Today's four flash sale items had already been refreshed.
"Ten Gold Bricks, total weight thirty kilograms."
"One vial of Captain America's Super Soldier Serum."
"The Great Tang World, Max-Level Longevity Art."
"The Future World, one vial of Intelligence Enhancement Potion. Intelligence doubles after use."
The four items appeared on the System Interface, and Chen Pingan was nearly shocked out of his mind.
Awesome! This System was truly incredible.
The refreshed items were too good.
Among the four items, the worst one was actually thirty kilograms of gold.
As for the remaining three items, every one of them was excellent.
Gold was the first to be eliminated. Although gold was valuable, its worth was the lowest.
Therefore, gold was excluded first.
What remained was a choice of three.
Chen Pingan only thought for a moment before eliminating the Intelligence Potion.
His mind was sufficient for the time being, and the Intelligence Potion was not immediately useful.
Now, only the Max-Level Longevity Art and Captain America's Super Soldier Serum remained.
Both items could enhance fighting capability, but they strengthened different aspects.
Chen Pingan's gaze darkened. A long-sealed memory, one that felt like Hell, surfaced in his mind.
In that memory, it was right here, on this very day, that he endured extreme suffering and humiliation.
Several Classmates, led by Zhang Lei, beat Chen Pingan up, and even urinated on Chen Pingan's head, forcing him to drink the urine.
School bullying existed regardless of the era.
Twenty years later, due to the developed internet, school bullying incidents were easily spread online.
But today, in '98, there was no internet to speak of, so naturally, no one knew about the school bullying incident.
That was a Hellish memory Chen Pingan dared not recall.
It could also be called the nightmare of his life.
Because of this incident, Chen Pingan's academic performance plummeted, he failed the college entrance exam, and only got into a diploma mill, directly affecting his entire life.
Thinking of the scene in his memory, Chen Pingan's body trembled.
It was a shiver woven from fear and rage.
In his memory, Zhang Lei and his group should be arriving soon.
Zhang Lei was a senior student from the next class, and he was also pursuing Li Mengyun.
Zhang Lei was extremely jealous that Chen Pingan could be close to Li Mengyun.
He had wanted to teach Chen Pingan a lesson for a long time.
This time, when Zhang Lei saw Li Mengyun and Chen Pingan go up to the rooftop, he brought a group of subordinates and followed them.
The scene from the nightmare was about to happen again soon.
But this time, everything was different.
Chen Pingan slowly took out the only one-Yuan bill from his pocket, opened the System Interface, and selected 'Recharge'.
The one-Yuan bill in his hand instantly turned into a streak of light and disappeared from his fingertips.
Inside the System Interface, there was a *ding* sound, and one Yuan was added to the 'Amount' column.
"One Yuan Flash Sale: Max-Level Longevity Art."
Chen Pingan called out in his heart.
This was Chen Pingan's choice.
He chose the Max-Level Longevity Art.
Captain America's Super Soldier Serum was good, but the Max-Level Longevity Art was better.
The Longevity Art originated from the top-tier martial arts in the novel The Legend of the Great Tang Twin Dragons.
Learning the Longevity Art not only grants a longer lifespan but also grants top-tier fighting capability, making it more valuable than the Super Soldier Serum.
Who wouldn't covet the ability to live longer and possess top-tier fighting capability?
Moreover, this was the Max-Level Longevity Art directly.
There was no need to Cultivate it oneself at all.
If he had to Cultivate it himself, Chen Pingan would definitely choose the Soldier Serum, but the Max-Level Longevity Art was not to be missed.
A golden light shone on Chen Pingan's body, and a powerful force poured into his physique.
A large volume of Longevity Art Cultivation memories also poured into Chen Pingan's mind.
Max-Level Longevity Art: Loading complete.
A flash of golden light crossed Chen Pingan's eyes. He had now become a master of top-tier Internal Skill.
His Dantian was filled with powerful Innate True Qi.
The Innate True Qi flowed out from the Dantian, circulated straight through all the Meridians in his body, continuously strengthening his physique.
The Max-Level Longevity Art was mastered.
This was the might of the System.
Chen Pingan circulated his True Qi, casually waved his hand, and a burst of force erupted, directly carving a long Sword Mark on a wall ten meters away.
Casually unleashing Sword Qi—this was the fighting capability of a top-tier Internal Force master.
Feeling the surging True Qi within his body, a cold smile curled Chen Pingan's lips.
With a bang, the iron door to the rooftop was kicked open.
A group of senior students walked in.
The student leading the way was Zhang Lei.
Chen Pingan was too familiar with Zhang Lei; he was the nightmare and shadow of Chen Pingan's entire previous life.
In his previous life, it was right here that Zhang Lei brought his lackeys, beat Chen Pingan severely, and then the group directly urinated on Chen Pingan.
The humiliation of a lifetime was born here.
Not only did Zhang Lei do that, but he also spread the incident throughout the school, making it impossible for Chen Pingan to hold his head high.
After Chen Pingan's parents found out, they came to the school to cause a fuss, but it was useless.
Zhang Lei's father was a construction foreman, wealthy and influential. He had handled everything, and the school also favored Zhang Lei.
Zhang Lei only received a minor disciplinary action.
Then Zhang Lei's family compensated Chen Pingan two hundred Yuan.
The matter passed without any real consequence.
Chen Pingan's parents were just ordinary people; they were furious but helpless.
Chen Pingan was completely defeated, his spirit and vitality utterly gone.
For the last two months, he dropped out of school, only able to study at home. He failed the college entrance exam and ended up only getting into a diploma mill, losing all contact with Li Mengyun.
Chen Pingan's destiny was changed right here.
How many times in the dead of night did Chen Pingan wonder: if he hadn't been bullied by Zhang Lei back then, would his destiny have been different?
There was no answer, because the past could not be changed.
But this time, he had the chance to change it.
Chen Pingan had undergone Rebirth twenty years into the past, returning to the exact moment Zhang Lei was about to bully him.
Moreover, Chen Pingan was now a peak master.
"Chen Pingan, you've got guts! What did I tell you before?"
"I told you, don't pester Li Mengyun anymore. Did my words just go in one ear and out the other?"
"Damn it, if I don't teach you a lesson today, I'll write my name backward."
Zhang Lei swaggered onto the rooftop, cursing and swearing obscenities.
Zhang Lei didn't put Chen Pingan in his eyes at all; he planned to give Chen Pingan an unforgettable lesson.
Chen Pingan calmly looked at Zhang Lei before him, his gaze devoid of fear and anger.
Only coldness remained.
In Chen Pingan's eyes, Zhang Lei was already a dead man.
He had already chosen the path of death.
The grudge from the previous life would be settled in this one.
"You guys are a bit slow. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Chen Pingan said leisurely, a wicked smile playing on his lips.
His smile appeared both wicked and cold.
Zhang Lei, however, was enraged.
"Shit, Chen Pingan, you're courting death! Guys, get him! If you kill him, I'll take responsibility," Zhang Lei said, waving his hand arrogantly.
Students at his age were easily hot-headed and impulsive.
Besides, he was accustomed to arrogance, and this wasn't the first time he had done something like this.
Since they were still on the school rooftop with no one else around, they became even more unrestrained.
At this moment, Zhang Lei was also extremely furious and genuinely harbored thoughts of murder.
Following behind Zhang Lei were three of his hangers-on.
In his previous life, it was these three people, together with Zhang Lei, who had beaten Chen Pingan severely.
Chen Pingan in his previous life was just a bookworm who couldn't fight; how could he have been a match for them?
But Chen Pingan in this life was no longer a bookworm.
Chen Pingan flashed a smile, his figure blurring as he instantly darted past the group.
