Chapter 7

Leo finished the Spanish Youth League with his academy team. He played well in all the matches, using his gifts from the system to enhance his skills and abilities. He scored many goals and assisted many goals with his skills. He became one of the best players in the league, as well as one of the most popular and famous.

He also learned a lot from playing against other teams and players. He learned about their strengths and weaknesses, their styles and strategies, their values and goals. He learned to respect and appreciate them, as well as to challenge and compete with them.

He enjoyed playing in the league, but he also faced some problems and difficulties. He faced some injuries and fatigue, which affected his performance and health. He faced some conflicts and misunderstandings with his teammates and coaches, which affected his relationship and harmony. He faced some criticism and jealousy from his opponents and fans, which affected his reputation and confidence.

He was glad that he had the system to help him and guide him. The system was his best friend and mentor. It gave him useful information and tips about football, the league, and the other teams. It also gave him encouragement and motivation when he felt down or discouraged. It also gave him gifts and challenges to improve his skills and abilities.

One of the gifts that the system gave him was a surprise visit from Cristiano Ronaldo, who was Leo's idol and inspiration. Ronaldo was one of the best players in the world, if not the best. He played for Real Madrid, Leo's favorite team and dream destination. He was also the source of Leo's first gift from the system: the dribbling skills of prime Cristiano Ronaldo.

Leo was shocked and delighted to meet Ronaldo in person. He was even more shocked and delighted when Ronaldo praised his skills and invited him to train with him.

He accepted Ronaldo's invitation and trained with him. He activated his gift and dribbled like Ronaldo. He felt exhilarated and ecstatic as he dribbled like Ronaldo with Ronaldo by his side.

He heard the system's voice in his head.

"Well done, Leo. You have successfully used your gift from the system: prime Cristiano Ronaldo dribbling. You have experienced a glimpse of what it is like to be a football legend. How do you feel?"

Leo replied to the system.

"I feel amazing. That was incredible. Thank you for this gift."

The system said.

"You're welcome, Leo. I'm glad you enjoyed it. But remember, this is only the beginning. You have a long way to go before you can become a football star. You will face many challenges

and difficulties along the way.

You will need to work hard,

train hard,

learn hard,

and play hard.

You will need to overcome your weaknesses,

improve your strengths,

develop your talents,

and hone your skills.

You will need to find your own style

and identity as a player,

not just copy someone else's.

You will need to balance your passion

and ambition

with your humility

and respect.

You will need to make friends

and allies,

as well as enemies

and rivals.

You will need to deal with fame

and fortune,

as well as pressure

and criticism.

You will need to cope with success

and failure,

as well as joy

and sorrow.

You will need to live up to your potential

and fulfill your destiny."

Leo listened attentively

to the system's words

and felt a surge of determination

and motivation.

He said

to the system.

"I understand,

system.

I'm ready

for anything.

I'm ready

to continue

my journey

as a footballer."

The system said.

"Very well,

Leo.

I'm proud

of you.

Let's continue

our journey

together."

The system gave him

a smiley face emoji.

Leo smiled back.

He felt happy

and hopeful.

He felt that this was

the continuation

of something great.

To be continued...
