Chapter 48 of "The Most Random System" reveals: The progress bar suddenly shot up, now even more than several times the previous accumulated... Keep reading!

The progress bar suddenly shot up, now even more than several times the previous accumulated progress. "Lin Li, what’s wrong with you?" Lin Li’s change in expression was too obvious for Chen Yu Ying not to notice. "Earth is great! So this planet is called Earth! This knowledge is so important to me! Teacher Chen, please continue, I’m listening carefully." Lin Li slapped his thigh and looked expectantly at Chen Yu Ying, "Next, can you tell us the names and numbers of the seven continents and four oceans?" Chen Yu Ying: "..." It’s hard to empathize with someone who says things like ’how many are the seven continents and four oceans’. But with Lin Li, it’s somehow normal. Chen Yu Ying was puzzled about how she hadn’t noticed these traits of Lin Li in the last semester. With a laugh, she sighed and continued playing the role, responding to Lin Li’s ’queries’: "Earth has a total of seven continents and four oceans, namely Asia..." ... [Task Five Completed.] Upon seeing this message, Lin Li let out a long sigh of relief. It only took a dozen minutes. "Class president, that’s enough." Lin Li reached out to pause Chen Yu Ying’s narrative and then complimented, "Class president, if you become a kindergarten teacher, you’ll definitely have students all around the world." Chen Yu Ying blinked, feeling the phrase ’students all around the world’ seemed both fitting and not quite right for a kindergarten teacher. "Really no need to continue?" Chen Yu Ying had actually gotten into the groove. Role-playing felt awkward, but Chen Yu Ying realized as long as she reminded herself she was entertaining a fool, everything became amusing. Especially when the fool gave positive feedback, it was even more fun. Chen Yu Ying was already enjoying herself. It’s known fooling fools would weigh heavy on one’s conscience. But fooling Lin Li wouldn’t. And the other party would even thank her. "No need, it’s enough. These knowledge points are solid enough as a foundation for my memory palace, I can build the rest on my own." Lin Li nodded, continuing his nonsense. "Alright..." Chen Yu Ying nodded, a bit reluctantly, then inspected Lin Li suspiciously: "Lin Li, you’re not tricking me, right? Are you really using this so-called magical memory palace technique? Can it really improve your memory?" "Class president, how could I trick you; I could swear. My memory has already doubled compared to before." Lin Li, whose physique had been improved by the system, spoke with confidence. "Really?" Chen Yu Ying still wasn’t convinced. She had heard of many peculiar and effective memory techniques globally, but they weren’t widely spread due to being either high-bar or difficult to master, lacking universal appeal. Theoretically, a memory palace requires very high spatial imagination ability. Is Lin Li really capable? "Really, class president, if you don’t believe it, test the knowledge you just taught me to see if I remembered it," Lin Li confidently patted his chest. "Alright, what is the name of the planet we live on?" "Earth." "What species are we?" "Humans, broadly, mammals." "What do we inhale and exhale?" "Oxygen, carbon dioxide." ... All questions posed by Chen Yu Ying were instantly answered correctly by Lin Li. "You really remembered everything." Chen Yu Ying nodded. "See." Lin Li was somewhat proud. "This memory technique is quite impress—no wait!" Just as she was about to continue nodding, Chen Yu Ying paused, suddenly realizing. "What’s wrong? My answers are all correct." Lin Li was a bit confused. "You already knew these basic facts! You’re not really dumb... or a real traveler from another realm!" Chen Yu Ying, having been too deep into role-play, had really taken Lin Li for a fool, now finally came to senses. Lin Li surely isn’t a fool... shouldn’t be. The ’knowledge’ I just taught, even a random wild Bai Bufan on the street could answer. If Lin Li couldn’t answer these questions, that would be crazy; this can’t prove any memory improvement! Almost got caught in the loop. "What you said makes sense." Lin Li realized, thinking and then pointing to the geography textbook, he said, "But my memory really improved, why don’t we memorize a completely unfamiliar Chapter together, let’s see who memorizes more in one minute?" "Okay." "Class president, taste the feeling of failure!" Lin Li was very confident. Even when considering nothing as everything. ... Failed. Couldn’t memorize more than Chen Yu Ying. Lin Li belatedly realized, scoring 100% and doubling still couldn’t exceed 300%, one Lin Li Tyson punch could kill only, two Lin Lis max two punches. It takes Vice Generals to rival Zhuge Liang—not just three stinky cobblers. Some games you cheat to no avail against an expert. No wonder the class president has such a freakish memory at a young age, ranking high academically; the freakishness isn’t just brains, but brains—the latter refers to the entity itself. "Class president, you’re making me a bit embarrassed..." Lin Li flopped onto the desk, eyes unfocused. "I believe now, I believe, this memory technique of yours must be pretty impressive." Lin Li’s demeanor drew laughter from Chen Yu Ying. "Class president, if you want to praise yourself, you can say it directly, no need to compliment me to indirectly praise yourself." Lin Li’s gaze refocused on Chen Yu Ying, looking rather resentful, then he smiled as well. Their mutual laughter caught others’ eyes. Wang Yuezhi’s teeth were grinding fiercely, Ding Sihan shared a tantalyzing aunt-like smile from the sidelines, Wang Ze... Wang Ze kept his gaze fixed on Wang Yuezhi. If this doesn’t count as love, what does? "Since your palace is ready, shall we return to the textbook and solve those questions all over again?" Chen Yu Ying inquired. "Okay." Lin Li nodded, preparing to open the book but then remembered: "Class president, don’t you have tricky questions wanting to ask me? Why don’t you ask them first?" "Sure." Ultimately, Chen Yu Ying could never speak as brazenly about perversion as Lin Li did, her volume lowered, but then she asked: "Lin Li, what does ’light hum’ mean when you guys say it? I’ve noticed you’ve been using this word frequently lately, but when I ask people around me, none of them know its meaning." Lin Li blinked. Prepared by the perverted baseline set, Lin Li wasn’t embarrassed or speechless by this question. Even thought it quite reasonable for the class president to ask. But how to elegantly describe this when Anti-bar’s Four Silver Demons coined the term? Lin Li always has ways. He’s a genius. "Class president, do you know what jade ant, heavenly blessing, jade liquid, poetic bait, yellow mash mean?" "Alcohol?" "Exactly, all these are elegant references, just like how white jade platter, Heng’e, laurel tree are elegant references for the moon, ’light hum’ is an elegant reference too." "So an elegant reference for what?" Chen Yu Ying was more curious. "For us boys, it’s Tao Zhe’s elegant reference." Lin Li answered. "Tao Zhe? Ah? Isn’t Tao Zhe a singer? Is ’light hum’ a fan nickname? And why is it gender divided?" Chen Yu Ying was even more perplexed, completely failing to understand. "No, I mean the literal split meaning of Tao Zhe." Lin Li shook his head. Chen Yu Ying watched Lin Li, hoping he would further explain. "Class president, split ’Zhe’ and read Tao Zhe’s name literally, and you’ll get it." Lin Li gently explained. Tao Gee... Chen Yu Ying: "?"
