The Olympic Games are just over three months away.
In other words, countries have already been busy preparing for the Olympics for at least six months in advance.
Because in times of peace, global sports competitions are the most effective way to boost national morale.
This is a worldwide event that also holds great symbolic significance in terms of a country's economy and politics.
To say that preparations started six months ago would be conservative; in fact, they began several years ago.
Three months may seem like a short period of time for Olympic delegations and athletes from various countries.
But for Zhao Yan, it feels like a long time.
That's because he doesn't need to train.
And to be honest, the sense of urgency brought about by the upcoming competition hasn't surpassed what Chen Yurou has given him yet.
So Zhao Yan once again drove to Changning.
He informed the company, the business association, Chen Yurou, and Ling Keko in advance.
The reason given was a mountain area inspection where the signal is poor.
Under no circumstances should they contact him!
Afterward, he blocked all of them.
Then he parked his car in a hotel parking lot and went straight to the club, ready to earn some game points.
I wonder if it's because it's the weekend that there are so many people and activities in the club's lobby today.
Are the Heavenly Realms on a weekend break too?
"Here you are again," Susu walked up to him.
Zhao Yan nodded, "I missed you."
Today, Susu was wearing a white cheongsam, accentuating her curves, and she was shaking a little fan in her hand.
"Heh, typical man," Susu snorted.
Zhao Yan emphasized, "I'm different from other men. Please don't lump us all together."
"What's different? Your face? Aren't you all just lusting after my body?" Susu shrugged and couldn't deny it.
Zhao Yan confidently stated, "They may lust after your body, but I'm different. I crave your control over the club. Don't consider yourself too important, my dear. If it weren't for you holding a bowl of rice, I wouldn't even spare you a second glance!"
While others might settle for a free meal, he hadn't even had the chance to taste it, and yet he was already stubborn enough.
"Get lost!" Susu had never been so speechless before.
Zhao Yan left gracefully, "Alright then."
Afterward, he started searching the lobby for a man he liked, or it didn't have to be a man necessarily, and it didn't even have to be a human. His taste had become quite particular now.
Suddenly, he noticed someone.
Name: Li Fei.
Age: 18.
Identity: New recruit in the military.
Brother in the military, to be honest, Zhao Yan really wanted to experience military life, but due to various coincidences, he didn't join the military back then.
After all, there's an old saying that goes, "You might regret being a soldier for up to two years, but you'll regret not being a soldier for a lifetime."
While earning points, it wouldn't be a bad choice to make up for his youthful regrets.
Moreover, considering his physical fitness.
Just casually becoming a king of soldiers, and when he's discharged, he can even serve as a personal bodyguard to the female CEO and the campus belle.
You might ask why the campus belle and female CEO would need a king of soldiers as a bodyguard? Maybe they want to claim the Diaoyu Islands.
"Hey, buddy, are you new here?" Zhao Yan approached and looked at Li Fei, who was filled with curiosity and excitement.
Li Fei quickly responded, "Yes, I just arrived today. Please take care of me and sorry for the trouble."
"Damn, you're wearing a military uniform, but as soon as you speak, you sound like a Japanese invader," Zhao Yan teased, then asked, "What kind of problem do you need to solve?"
"Well..." Li Fei hesitated to say.
Zhao Yan familiarly embraced him and said, "What's there to be embarrassed about? You came here because you want to solve a problem, so don't hide it."
"I... I just enlisted and haven't even joined the new recruits yet. I don't know what to do. But they actually want to make a documentary about military life, and they want to livestream it while filming. My physical fitness is already poor, and I'm afraid of embarrassing myself," Li Fei said, blushing.
Before joining the army, he had mentally prepared himself to be embarrassed during the training period. But he never expected to embarrass himself in front of a national audience. He instantly became timid.
Zhao Yan blinked his eyes and said, "Are you from the Blue Star?"
Because he suddenly remembered the livestream trailer that Chen Yu Rou showed him a few days ago, which mentioned that this year's entire new recruits' journey would be documented and livestreamed.
At that time, he thought it was false advertising because the military had many things that needed to be kept confidential. Livestreaming would require a lot of hassle.
Making it into a recorded documentary would have been more plausible.
Now, he didn't expect it to actually be a livestream.
Indeed, the authorities wouldn't engage in false advertising.
Only those unscrupulous merchants would do so.
Like his cousin's company, Changhong Trading ❛‿˂̵✧.
"Are there really extraterrestrials here?" Li Fei blinked his eyes in confusion, looking at Zhao Yan.
Zhao Yan patted his shoulder and said, "For the sake of being fellow villagers, I'll help you with this favor."
Not for anything else, but for the sake of showing off on livestream.
His show-off syndrome had acted up again. He had never shown off in front of so many people before, and just thinking about it made him excited.
Moreover, he had an immature idea, which was to connect all the members on the Blue Star.
He had gotten addicted to being the leader.
He already had Chen Han as his elder brother-in-law, and if Li Fei joined in, they would be a group of three.
When there are more people, it makes a big difference.
They could even unite and rule the world.
"So, there are really extraterrestrial beings!" Li Fei said in disbelief when he heard Zhao Yan's response.
Zhao Yan hooked his arm around him and headed towards the exchange room, saying, "You'll find out later. I don't have any problems for you to solve because you can't solve my problems. So, just enjoy spending my money to your heart's content."
"Is that... is that okay?" Li Fei was tempted.
Zhao Yan declared enthusiastically, "Money is just paper. Spend it as you like. After all, I like making friends."
"But what about your physical fitness? If you're also unskilled, won't that embarrass me too?" Li Fei asked, feeling somewhat concerned.
Without any hesitation, Zhao Yan said, "I was born with superhuman strength. Do you see this table? Watch carefully."
Then he tried to lift the table in the exchange room with one hand.
However, the table was fixed and didn't budge...
Li Fei blinked his eyes, looking at him.
Zhao Yan silently retracted his hand and said, without changing his expression, "Did you see that? This table is very large."
Li Fei: "............"
Do you really need to tell me that? I can obviously see that the table is big.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
The staff members had to suppress their laughter on their faces.
"Damn it!" Zhao Yan directly lifted Li Fei with one hand to demonstrate his physical fitness.
Li Fei quickly expressed his willingness to exchange with him.
It was clear that he was impressed by Zhao Yan's physical prowess.
Then the two signed an agreement in the exchange room.
Zhao Yan's agreement template had already been fixed, with a series of restrictions such as not being allowed to go to the coastal area, and so on...
The exchange period was set for three months.
Because the three months coincided with the end of the basic training period for new recruits.
At the same time, the Olympic Games were about to begin.
...............
Opening his eyes, clank clank, Zhao Yan found himself sitting in a train carriage full of new recruits.
This was a transport vehicle for new recruits.
Everyone in the carriage seemed inexperienced.
But Zhao Yan was different from them.
Because he was very motivated.
He clenched his fist, feeling a slight excitement.
His elite soldier career was about to begin.

and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!

Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled.

Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day!

In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”

The Transmigrator Consort: "You worthless Emperor, why should I kneel to you? All men are equal—I advise you to be kind!" The Great General: "The enemy general is my childhood sweetheart.
