[Blind box opened successfully, congratulations to the host for obtaining Master-level Musical Instrument Proficiency]
Musical Instrument Proficiency?
Qin Tian was stunned and quickly opened the system skill panel page. Sure enough, Master-level Musical Instrument Proficiency had been added.
Even without special skill descriptions, it was easy to understand from the name.
Immediately, a vast amount of music theory and instrument knowledge flooded his mind, causing a slight throbbing pain in his head.
About a minute later, the feeling of enlightenment faded. Qin Tian could clearly feel that he had gone from a musical level where he could only play "Two Tigers" on a harmonica to a master-level performer proficient in all instruments.
He should be able to handle any instrument he picked up with ease.
These ten thousand points…
Should be considered a good investment?
Qin Tian wasn't sure if the long wait, the chosen "auspicious day" for opening the box, and the metaphysical approach had actually had any effect.
Logically speaking, it should have been a great profit.
However, he had no intention of becoming a musician, and mastering all instruments seemed to have no immediate use.
"The broadband is all set up. I paid for a year and even got a router. It cost 720 yuan in total!"
Chen Zhuang suddenly spoke, interrupting Qin Tian's thoughts.
"That's quite cheap. So it's 180 yuan per person. Should I transfer it to you or something?"
Qin Tian asked with a smile.
Chen Zhuang tilted his head back and gulped down the remaining cola. He replied, "No rush, let's wait until everyone else arrives tomorrow!"
"Alright!"
Qin Tian nodded.
"We probably won't have internet today."
Chen Zhuang stretched, stood up, and asked, "Do you play basketball?"
"Occasionally!"
"Want to go check out the basketball court together?"
Qin Tian figured he had already packed his things and had nothing else to do in the dorm, so he agreed.
The two of them went to the campus basketball court and joined a game with some seniors.
After the game, Qin Tian gained everyone's approval and goodwill.
In the system's skill panel, his basketball skill was only level 2, not particularly refined. However, his perfect physical fitness was too formidable.
And in basketball, physical fitness played a decisive role.
Qin Tian deliberately held back, otherwise, this game might have turned into his solo performance.
His relationship with Chen Zhuang also improved significantly because of this game.
After playing, Chen Zhuang had his arm around Qin Tian's shoulders, and they walked back to the dorm laughing and chatting.
Back in the dorm, Qin Tian took a shower, then brought in the bedsheets and quilt that Xia Nuannuan had washed for him. He climbed onto the bed, spread the sheets, put on the pillowcase, and then comfortably lay down.
He picked up his phone and checked it. Xia Nuannuan had sent him a message five minutes ago, reminding him to collect the sheets and pillowcases he had hung out to dry.
"Received. I was just showering, and now I've already made the bed and am lying down."
Qin Tian typed a quick reply.
"That's good!"
"What about you? Have you finished packing your luggage?"
"Yeah, it's all done. I'll rest for a bit and then go shower and sleep!"
"Haha"
Qin Tian sent two emoji stickers.
After a few seconds, the other side immediately replied with a cartoon image of a little girl punching a dog flying.
"Heh heh… By the way, there's nothing much going on tomorrow morning. Want to go shopping for a computer with me?"
Qin Tian changed the subject.
"Sure, how about after breakfast?"
"Deal!"
After they chatted via messages for a while, Xia Nuannuan went to take a shower.
Of course, there would be no immediate rewards. Qin Tian could only lie on the bed fantasizing about inappropriate scenes, pulling the air-conditioned quilt over his lower body.
Having too good physical fitness was sometimes also a problem!
"Are you still cold? Is the air conditioning set too low?"
Chen Zhuang came out of the shower and asked in surprise, seeing him covered with a blanket while playing on his phone.
Jiangcheng in September was undoubtedly one of the four major "furnace cities" in the country.
The weather was quite hot today, and they had just finished playing basketball. If there were a large refrigerator, Chen Zhuang would have wanted to crawl inside to cool down.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Qin Tian's face. He didn't look at Chen Zhuang and said directly, "You're from the Northeast, so you're naturally more sensitive to heat. I just finished showering, can't I cover myself a bit when the air conditioning is on?"
Chen Zhuang was stunned, then seemed to understand something instantly, and said with envy and jealousy, "Young man, you need to learn self-control. Youth knows not…"
"Shut up!"
Qin Tian interrupted him with a dark expression.
"Sigh!"
Chen Zhuang shook his head and sighed, then looked at Zhuang Zhe and said, "Ah Zhe, see? Getting a girlfriend too early isn't always a good thing."
Pure as Zhuang Zhe was, he was a bit confused for a moment and looked at Chen Zhuang blankly.
"You're not doing well. Let me find some teacher videos another day, and we can study together."
Chen Zhuang said earnestly.
Zhuang Zhe became even more bewildered and nodded dumbly.
"Chen Da Zhuang, if you say one more word, this two-dorm get-together tomorrow will be off."
Qin Tian threatened coldly.
"My mistake, I'll shut up!"
Chen Zhuang immediately surrendered and nimbly walked towards his own bed.
Qin Tian rolled over with a dark expression.
This elder brother from the Northeast was undoubtedly someone who looked burly and rough but was actually very reserved and inwardly mischievous.
The phone's ringtone suddenly sounded. A call was coming in, displaying "Mom".
Qin Tian sat up, propped himself up with a pillow against the headboard, and brought the phone to his ear to answer.
"Hello, Mom!"
"Xiao Tian, what are you doing?"
"Just finished showering, getting ready to sleep in bed. Are you done with your work there?"
Qin Tian asked with a smile.
"Yes, I'm on my way back!"
Tang Xiuxia's voice sounded very happy. She asked again, "Have your roommates arrived? How are you getting along?"
"Two have arrived, and we're getting along well. Don't worry!"
Qin Tian replied with a smile, looking at Chen Zhuang.
Chen Zhuang happened to be looking at him too, giving him a playful wink with a silly grin.
"That's good. What about Nuannuan?"
"She's doing well too. One of her roommates even treated us to dinner this afternoon. That roommate is also very nice."
"They treated you to dinner right away? You're a grown man, and Nuannuan's boyfriend at that. We shouldn't be accepting meals from others!"
"Tomorrow, once everyone has arrived, I'll treat both dorms to dinner!"
"Yes, that's how it should be!"
After chatting with his mother for a while until she walked home, the call ended.
"Is there anything else? Turn off the lights!"
Chen Zhuang called out.
"Turn them off!"
Qin Tian responded.
Chen Zhuang was in the bed on the right, close to the dorm door, and could reach the switch by stretching his arm.
With a click, the dorm lights went out, and the room fell into a quiet atmosphere.
"By the way, what year are you guys born? I'm '92, November."
Chen Zhuang found a topic.
"Ninety-three, December."
Qin Tian casually replied while browsing news on his phone.
"I'm also '93, July!"
Zhuang Zhe's voice followed.
"So far, I'm the oldest. Lao Qin, you're the youngest, huh? Tsk, you don't look like it at all!"
"Why don't I look like it? You don't look like you're from the nineties either. By the way, you're not from the eighties, are you?"
"Bullshit, I just look more mature!"
