Asher looked at Lily in shock, wondering if he had done something. He knew she often looked his way, but he had always assumed it was because they were rivals, competing for the top rank in every exam.
"What can I do? Even if I think all day, there's no way I will know," he mused. Turning away from her, he directed his gaze towards his teacher and focused on the lesson being taught.
Just as he turned away from Lily, she gazed after him, wondering, "Why did he look at me that way? Did he notice something?". She is confident that he won't discover it, as she considers him to be an ordinary human.
As the class neared its end, Professor Miller suddenly announced the results of their last test, which caused chaos in the classroom. Some students were happy, others were sad, but none of the cultivators showed any emotion, except for Lily.
"Alright class, I have your latest test results. I was pleasantly surprised to see that many of you have scored well, which makes me happy as it shows your hard work. However, those who did not pass must meet with the dean." She speak with a beautiful smile in his face.
The students began to worry, understanding that behind the beautiful smiles, there was a harsh reality: failure would have consequences. This concern stemmed from the previous test, where several students were notably absent following the announcement of their results. Upon investigating, they discovered that these students had been suspended.
Gaining admission to this college was a significant challenge for them, although it may not be the best in the world, standing at second place.
As for the top-ranked college, they had only heard of its name and were unaware of its location, a place where only the most exceptional students have the opportunity to study.
The suspended students were required to bring their parents to make a request, yet only a few were approved. Even those with parents in high positions faced rejection, with exceptions being made for some. Approval was generally granted to those with a strong academic record.
Asher looked at Jake and sighed; he was an exceptional student, which made him quite arrogant, a trait he inherited from his parents. His mother owned a large international cosmetics company, and his father, who owned several companies, was also a well-connected mayor.
Asher heard that he had force many females, use them and throw away but the victim cannot do anything they are helpless, there is even a rumor that he pregnant a man wife, but the husband cannot do anything as for the woman she commit suicide.
Now that he knows the cultivator is real, his concern for Professor Miller keeps growing, even though he knows she is strong, there's an expectation that something might happen. He watches her, busy announcing the results.
"Asher has achieved full marks on this test. Congratulations, Asher," announced Professor Miller to the class, offering him a smile.
He felt a bit shy receiving full attention from his class. Although he was a good student, always coming in second, today he achieved first rank. He was somewhat pleased, but not as much as he would have been in the past. His life goals had shifted since he acquired the system; now, he aspired to become strong.

Asher left the college feeling satisfied with his morning class. Despite his recent wealth, he chose to work his part-time job for one last day. He wanted to bid a proper farewell to his colleagues, especially Olivia.
Olivia, a 26-year-old beautiful woman with black hair and brown eyes, is an orphan and thinks him as her younger brother. She always lends him a helping hand whenever he needs it. She completed her business class college education three years ago.
After he arrived at the coffee shop, he first went to his boss office and inform that he will quit his job the following day.
"Is there a problem, kid?" John inquired, knowing Asher is poor.
"There's nothing wrong, Mr. John. I just got lucky and found a new job," Asher lied, as he couldn't reveal that he had acquired a system and had become wealthy.
"Good luck, kid," John said as he tossed an envelope to him.
He examined the envelope and noticed it contained $5000. "Boss, what is this?" he couldn't help but ask.
"Just take it, kid," John replied with a smile.
After he emerged from the room with an envelope, his colleague began to ask him questions.
"Hey, little brother, any problems?"
He's the youngest employee at the coffee shop, so they sometimes help him and often call him 'little brother.'
"Nothing! It's just that I'm going to quit, I found a new job" he replies with a smile.
'I am going to miss them,' he thinks to himself, looking at his colleagues and feeling fortunate to have worked with them, especially since he often heard that many employees make things difficult for their junior at other shop.
"Oh... we will miss you. Good luck, little brother, and don't forget us ok!"
They started working as numerous customers began entering the shop, leaving no time for idle chatter, except for one woman who eyed him narrowly.
"Is something the matter, big sister?" he inquires, gazing at the elegant woman clad in a 'manager' tagged shirt and a maxi skirt.
"Little brother, you didn't inform your big sister about your new job. It seems like you don't love your sister anymore," she says with fake sorrowful expression, as tears threaten to spill.
"It's not that I don't want to tell you, I didn't find any new job, and please don't ask why; I can't disclose that." He didn't wish to lie to her, so he answered truthfully, yet he couldn't reveal anything about the system.
"Alright, little brother, you should tell your big sister someday," she says, aware that many people have secrets. She isn't saddened by this, but she holds onto the belief that he will confide in her one day.
"I will, big sister," he replies with a smile and goes to work.
Future has already change for her when she meets him, to remain as his big sister or other.
He is aware that disclosing information about the system could lead to trouble. He has read many novels where the main character faces punishment for such revelations, and in the world of cultivation, it is a significant taboo since some individuals possess the ability to read others' memories.
[Ding]
[You did good by not revealing about system as it might bring problem not only to you it might also bring problem in her fate]
[Having a system is considered taboo because it alters the fate of the host. Once fused together, the host can never reincarnate; their destiny is forever altered. The host is no longer bound to the universe but has become an anomaly. Therefore, be cautious, host.]
Upon hearing that, he abruptly stops walking, feeling a surge of fear at the realization that he has become an anomaly. He understands the implications all too well, having read numerous novels where the main character constantly faces problems for being an outsider in the universe.
"Will I always get problems system?" he asked, hoping to alleviate his concerns since the novel might sometimes be incorrect.
[Host, it is true that anomalies often cause problems, but rest assured, you will not encounter such issues as the system has already taken care]
"Oh... thank you, system," he thinks, feeling fortunate to have the system.
If he realizes that it's not permanent, he may encounter dangers in the future far beyond what he can comprehend for obstructing the universal path. Facing it now might present only minor issues, but the system has already mapped out his future, and she has kept it from him.
We will know in future whether the system will become his friend or foe.
