### Chapter 207: Body Enhancement
Lin Tian’s expression turned into a blank stare.
[Mandatory Calmness Activated!]
Almost instinctively, Lin Tian activated his powers.
As a peculiar sensation surged through his bl**d and spread throughout his body, his emotions settled in an instant.
His face returned to its normal color, and his heartbeat became regular again.
“Phew!”
That was close!
He almost let several hundred thousand viewers witness his embarrassing shy expression!
Teacher Gan was always like this; she looked so dazed and clueless most of the time.
But when she made a move, it was like zero frames of animation—out of nowhere!
“It’s not cold anymore,” he said.
“Oh.”
After seeing that Lin Tian had no reaction at all, Gan Yan Yu’s face turned red instead.
She released Lin Tian’s hand and turned her face away.
“I’m going to change back into my clothes.”
“Uh, but Teacher Gan, we just started! There are still so many outfits to try on!”
“I’m tired.”
“Eh?”
Gan Yan Yu casually dropped that line and then turned around, heading back to the changing room.
“…”
Lin Tian felt like he might have said something wrong.
He rubbed his forehead, feeling a bit lost.
Wasn’t what he said fine?
What was up with Gan Yan Yu? Perhaps the reward segment was over, and she didn’t want to cooperate with him anymore?
At that moment, watching Gan Yan Yu’s departing figure, Lin Tian even got the feeling similar to when you don’t help your girlfriend get dressed afterward, and she’s mad about it.
Lin Tian redirected his gaze back to the livestream.
Viewers were still buzzing about wanting to see Teacher Cat’s uniform or asking Lin Tian for more talent performances.
But the scheduled time for the session was up; continuing would mean overtime.
“Let’s wrap up today’s press conference here,” Lin Tian said, “The new album will be released this Friday at 12:00 PM sharp, and you can now pre-order it on TaoTao. I hope everyone supports us!”
“Thanks again for your support today! My partner Teacher Cat and I will deliver even more excellent works. Stay tuned!”
After going through a series of official closing remarks and bidding farewell to the viewers, Lin Tian stood up and turned off the livestream.
In the taxi on the way home, Lin Tian turned to look at Gan Yan Yu, who was sitting by the window.
“Teacher Gan.”
“Hmm?”
The young woman raised her eyes, curiously looking at Lin Tian.
“Uh, never mind.”
He turned back around, feeling a bit peculiar.
Since they left the livestream, Gan Yan Yu seemed to have stopped talking.
She wasn’t mad.
If you spoke to her, she’d respond and even smile occasionally.
But if you didn’t talk to her, she’d just stare blankly ahead.
Like an NPC that needed dialogue to trigger any actions.
Something felt off.
Today’s press conference went smoothly, and the system’s reward task was completed perfectly.
However, Lin Tian’s goal of making emotional progress with Gan Yan Yu didn’t happen.
Even the task of making the teacher feel “excited” was completed in a completely unexpected way, without even giving Lin Tian a chance to come up with some excuse to get a little touchy-feely.
“Teacher Gan, you seem to rarely wear the watch I gave you.”
Just then, Lin Tian pointed at Gan Yan Yu’s wrist.
He instinctively reached out his hand to grasp it.
But Gan Yan Yu quickly pulled her hand back.
“Oh, that….”
Gan Yan Yu touched her wrist and said, “I only wear it when I go to school. It feels uncomfortable to have something heavy on my wrist while practicing.”
“Okay, then.”
Lin Tian wasn’t sure if Gan Yan Yu was doing it on purpose or it was a coincidence.
Feeling a bit awkward, Lin Tian withdrew his hand and turned to the window.
Back at home.
The moment he got in, Lin Tian checked his task completion.
[Goal 1: Obtain “Sweet” Emotion Value from [100,000] Live Stream Viewers. (Completed)]
[Goal 2: Satisfy (3/3) Randomly Selected Wishes from Live Stream Viewers. (Completed)]
[Goal 3: Make Partner’s Heart Flutter Once (Completed)]
[Reward Task Completed!]
[Received – Focus Potion1]
[Focus Potion: Consumable. Can be used anytime, granting the user 300% focus, mental strength, endurance, and thinking speed for 30 minutes. After use, the user enters a “dizzy” state.]
Dizzy state?
What’s that like?
The first part was easy to understand.
It was like a super lollipop.
Take a bite and boom, you’re at your best, performing at several times your normal level.
That’s pretty useful for Lin Tian.
300%?
That’s pretty exaggerated.
If used during a performance at a critical moment, it could unleash a flood of overwhelming effects.
If used here and there at crucial times, it might just cause the floodgates to burst.
But it was that side effect that concerned Lin Tian.
Dizziness?
Was that semi-dizzy, or the kind where you’re out cold?
And why are there quotation marks? Does it imply something different from the usual understanding of dizziness?
Lin Tian didn’t want to perform and then pass out, leaving Teacher Gan to carry him back.
The potion could only be used once, so Lin Tian couldn’t test it. Better to just set it aside for now.
[Producer’s Body Enhancement Level +3!]
With a sensation of muscles tearing and bones vibrating, Lin Tian immediately squatted down, letting out a painful groan.
“…”
This pain lasted only three seconds.
Then, he stood back up.
Looking at his palm, he felt a transformational sensation.
Was the enhancement completed?
Lin Tian was curious.
The system’s enhancement list included categories like Toughness, Stamina, Martial Arts, Fighting Skills, and many more.
Should he try Toughness first?
Lin Tian walked into the bathroom and punched the concrete wall.
“Bang!”
A dull thud.
Normally, that force would have scraped his fingers, but today it felt like nothing, and his fist was perfectly fine.
Whoa!
Looks like it was even more powerful than he imagined!
It felt as if he had spent years practicing with iron sand palms; his hands felt so much sturdier now, and hitting it didn’t hurt at all.
And that was just his palm.
Next, Lin Tian kicked the wall, then headbutted it, and elbowed it.
The results were undeniable.
Lin Tian wondered what these skills could actually do for a musician like him.
More endurance?
That can’t be right—nobody wants to lose a contest and then challenge someone to a cage fight.
—Unless the judges don’t understand music; then at least he’d understand a bit of fighting, too.
Not that it was utterly useless.
If his estranged father ever came back to prove himself in a competition, Lin Tian would totally unleash some wild elbow strikes!
Suddenly, Lin Tian recalled there was one area he hadn’t tested yet.
He lowered his head, pondering.
“…”
He threw a series of rapid Wing Chun-style strikes.
And surprisingly, he still stood firm!
The world’s toughest object had emerged!
Who said this body enhancement was useless? It’s incredibly useful!
