Chapter 7

"Hmm..."

"No..."

"The feeling of combining playmaking..."

"The combination of playmaking attributes + Playmaking Master badge, the badge plays a bigger role."

"Attributes are just the foundation..."

"How to make the attributes effective depends on how individuals use them, or... rely directly on the badge. Clearly, badges like 'Playmaking Master' can fully exert the power of basic attributes."

At first, Yukimiya thought 'Playmaking Master badge' was bound to playmaking ability values, that is, obtaining the badge would obtain corresponding ability values.

However, looking at the stingy increase of training once, it is clearly not the case.

Otherwise, if you get a badge in the future, your ability will be full, and the significance of the meditation training getting 0.x training value each time will not exist.

The 'Playmaking Master' rewarded by the starter badge is more like a novice welfare reward. In order to apply this badge at the start, the system forcibly raised the two attributes.

It looks like giving some sweetness first, and then tricking you into paying.

"So, the subsequent route is very clear."

"Try hard to raise the attributes first, so as not to fall into the embarrassing situation of getting a badge but not having enough attribute values to wear it."

Yukimiya Kazuma: "..."

Wait...

How to get the badge, there is no hint yet.

On the other side.

Masaki Taketou saw that Yukimiya Kazuma seemed to be resting in place, so he waited a few minutes before coming over.

"Is this the training method you mentioned?"

"Playing basketball against the air..."

"Is it really useful?"

Masaki Taketou still couldn't help but ask.

"This is called meditation training." Yukimiya Kazuma said seriously, "And the effect, didn't you see it today? It's surprisingly good."

Masaki Taketou shook his head and admired: "You are really a genius."

Clearly, being able to think of such a strange training mode that improves so fast, Yukimiya Kazuma is undoubtedly a genius.

"What about you?"

"Why haven't you left yet?"

"Waiting to lock the door, seeing you practice so hotly, I didn't disturb you." Masaki Taketou rolled his eyes at Yukimiya, and then suddenly smiled: "However, seeing you play against the air by meditation, I can even really feel the opponent's movements, it's really interesting."

Seeing Masaki Taketou ready to lock the door, Yukimiya Kazuma immediately said: "Wait a minute, lock it later... just give me the key, I'll lock the door last."

Masaki Taketou heard the subtext of Yukimiya and was surprised: "Still want to continue practicing?"

Yukimiya Kazuma nodded and said: "Hmm, want to practice again, this training mode needs an empty arena, it's just right now, you leave the key there, I will lock the arena."

After speaking.

Yukimiya Kazuma prepared to return to the court and challenge the meditation training again.

But just at this moment.

He heard Masaki Taketou behind him say: "Then... I'll stay too."

"Hmm?"

"There is still more than a month before the All-Middle School Tournament qualifiers, I want to work harder, I can't let you, who just recovered from injury, practice extra, while I, the captain, slack off."

Masaki Taketou looked at Yukimiya Kazuma seriously, then took off his coat and pushed the cart full of basketballs to the other half of the court.

Yukimiya Kazuma watched for a while and found that Masaki Taketou mainly practiced shooting.

Suddenly, he thought of a question.

"Want to come and play a few balls to see?"

"Huh?" Hearing this, Masaki Taketou was stunned for a moment, "Okay."

Masaki Taketou came back to his senses and soon came to the half-court where Yukimiya was. Looking at Yukimiya Kazuma in front of him, Masaki Taketou suddenly found that the expression on this guy's face was very relaxed.

Clearly, when Yukimiya was doing that meditation training, his expression was gradually solemn, and in the end, it was even more like eating people. Now it looks quite relaxed.

While thinking, Masaki Taketou passed the ball to Yukimiya Kazuma and followed up with defensive actions.

The two were about the same height, one 184, one 189, and their athletic ability was about the same. In the past, the two performed their own duties, one was good at defense, one was good at offense.

However...

Judging from Yukimiya Kazuma's performance today.

Masaki Taketou knew that in terms of offense, Kazuma was already incomparable.

The next second.

*Slap~!*

*Slap~!*

*Slap~!*

In the quiet arena, the swift dribbling sound slapped!

By the time Masaki Taketou came back to his senses, he had been shaken and completely lost his defensive position!

When he was really standing in front of Yukimiya Kazuma, Masaki Taketou realized what level Yukimiya Kazuma's ball handling was now.

"So strong..."

Yukimiya Kazuma twisted his shoulders and neck, feeling satisfied with the attack he had just unleashed against Takefuji Masaki.

However, it seems impossible to gain training points outside of the "Meditation Training" scenario.

It looks like all future training will have to be concentrated within the "Meditation Training System."

In the original owner's memories, there is only a little over a month left until the regional preliminaries of the National Tournament. Thinking about the strength of the Generation of Miracles, time is truly tight and the task is heavy.

10 minutes later.

Yukimiya Kazuma, covered in a cold sweat, shuddered all over.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully completing one meditation training session……]

[Reward obtained: Three-pointer · Training Value +0.1]

"Damn it!"

……

One hour later.

Yukimiya Kazuma and Takefuji Masaki were lined up in the empty gymnasium; the difference was that Takefuji Masaki was standing, while Yukimiya Kazuma was already lying flat.

Exhausted!

Heaven knows what he had gone through in this past hour.

The training scenarios generated by this ghost system were truly random.

There were weak ones……

Like Miyaji Kiyoshi or Wakamatsu Kosuke.

But the strong ones were ridiculously strong!

In just one hour, the Generation of Miracles had taken turns tormenting him. 1v1 was one thing, but in 3v3, the distribution of strength between the two sides was highly problematic; he had never once been on the same side as the Generation of Miracles!

Every time he encountered the Generation of Miracles, the training points awarded were a pathetic 0.1 or 0.2.

Shouldn't playing against stronger opponents yield more?

Why is this system working in reverse……

After training for over an hour, although Yukimiya Kazuma still felt he had more to give, he had already played the fourth quarter of a practice match today and had undergone a physical conditioning session arranged by the coach.

His remaining energy was truly insufficient to support such intense training, especially with the high-intensity training scenarios appearing frequently in the meditation system.

Takefuji Masaki glanced at Yukimiya Kazuma, thinking that if he could reach this level of intensity by training with "air," then this training mode was certainly no joke.

It was a pity……

Others couldn't imitate it.

At least, after studying him from the sidelines for a long time, he had studied nothing but emptiness.

……

After saying goodbye to Takefuji Masaki and leaving the gymnasium.

Yukimiya Kazuma walked home along the route in his memory, and when passing a convenience store, he bought some instant bento boxes; his stomach was indeed starving.

In this world, this child's parents were both deceased, leaving behind only enough savings and property. This was actually a good thing; otherwise, if a pair of parents had suddenly appeared, Yukimiya Kazuma really wouldn't have known how to get along with them.

After returning home.

Eating, showering, and browsing the two-story house, it was already nearly eight o'clock.

Lying on the bed, Yukimiya Kazuma, who was accustomed to the 996 work schedule, suddenly arrived in such a leisurely student era and felt a sense of emptiness for a moment.

Bored, Yukimiya looked at the desk nearby, walked over, and flipped through the textbooks. In his memory, Yukimiya Kazuma's grades were very average, but after finishing the middle school knowledge in the books, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

It was delightful; the third year of middle school was about the same level as the first year of middle school back home. With a little review, he should be able to pick up the forgotten knowledge.

Flipped through the books for a while.

After 9 o'clock, Yukimiya Kazuma went to bed on time.

He had planned a heavy training schedule for tomorrow. Although the recovery speed at this age was good, considering the body was in a growth stage, regular and sufficient sleep was quite important in self-management.

……

The next morning.

6:30.

Yukimiya Kazuma responded to the alarm clock on time. The moment he got up, after feeling his physical state, his expression immediately froze.

"Is this the body of a young person?"

"Or is it the effect of the system?"

Yukimiya Kazuma felt that the fatigue in his body had completely recovered after a night's sleep; his state was fully charged, and his energy was quite abundant.

He had originally thought that after transmigrating, with all the matches and the frantic training out of novelty, his body might show signs of discomfort. However, after one night, there were no abnormal conditions at all.

It was just that the hunger was very intense.

"Since that's the case……"

"The planned training schedule might be able to be modified again."

Originally, Yukimiya Kazuma had planned to get up early, spend some time warming up, and practice technical aspects that didn't consume too much physical strength, so that his attributes could be better utilized.

But if the recovery effect was this good, perhaps he could train even more fiercely.

For example……

Before going to school, find an empty place and do an hour of "meditation training."

Anyway, middle schools here in Japan don't start the first period until nearly 9 o'clock in the morning; with so much free time, wouldn't it be a waste not to train? ===== CHAPTER 20 =====
