Cao Baiming took a deep breath. Although others were still in the locker room, everyone was immersed in the cheers and joy of victory and didn't seem to want to disturb him.
His teammates were already accustomed to Cao Baiming's demeanor.
He himself couldn't even spare a thought for others at this moment. Even though he could clearly see people coming and going around him, and familiar teammates walking past, it was as if they didn't exist, and he paid no attention.
The system was truly generous this time!!
No one could understand the excitement in Cao Baiming's heart. He had never encountered such a lavish reward even in his usual experiences, let alone this time, when it was a system skill upgrade he had long known about, and a comprehensive upgrade at that!
Compared to the blue gift pack from before, the magnitude of this reward was starkly evident.
If other things weren't so intuitive, a simple data comparison would make it clearer. For instance, a normal blue gift pack awarded 100,000 points, while a colorful one directly granted 15 million points!
Cao Baiming wasn't even sure if the total points he currently possessed added up to that amount.
And this wasn't even the most important part!
The system's voice had already faded.
The most crucial aspect was the additional rewards specifically for the colorful tier. He had to choose wisely from these three options!
At first glance, these three options didn't seem particularly impressive. But with just a second thought... Damn! Was this for real?!
Attribute points directly doubled??? This was a doubling, not just a simple increase!
Even a free attribute point gift pack now wouldn't exceed twenty points. With his attributes all exceeding a hundred, even one point exchanged with points would be astronomically expensive!
What did direct doubling mean? For example, his shooting attribute, currently at 136, would become 272. He could probably score with his eyes closed!
This wasn't even the most outrageous part. Doubling his current body attribute of 150 would bring it to a full 300 points. Anyone who bumped into him would likely be sent flying several meters away!
The power of the other two options was even more profound, hidden beneath the surface meaning, surpassing the attribute point doubling.
The discount on system skill upgrades seemed incredibly valuable, as what he anticipated most was a significant upgrade to his system skills.
He remembered that the first upgrade directly granted him "Time Perception," which multiplied his wealth by hundreds or even thousands of times, and that was only one aspect.
Other aspects went without saying.
The "Time Bubble" function from the second upgrade further broadened his horizons. If such a powerful system skill could reach such a level in its third stage, what could it achieve? Nothing could be more exciting.
However, the demand for 500 million points and a career total of one thousand goals had completely extinguished his excitement, leaving him with virtually no hope.
A thousand goals would take at least several years. Even if he could easily score a hundred goals a year, that would still be a decade!
Now, he could finally get a discount on this requirement, a whopping thirty percent, reducing the 500 million points to 350 million. More importantly, the career goal requirement was reduced to seven hundred!
Although it was still a lot, at least there was a glimmer of hope!
If he could continue to get discounts like this, perhaps it wouldn't take too long before he could witness its true form. This was truly exhilarating.
Cao Baiming's eyes sparkled as he began to ponder.
In terms of necessity, the discount on system skill upgrades was clearly greater than the attribute point doubling. One could say necessity is practicality, making this option more worthwhile.
However, on the surface, the attribute point doubling seemed more appealing. He imagined if it were applied to his speed attribute, he would be flying... If used for interceptions, who could possibly get past him?
Making a decision meant sacrificing one of them. This was too difficult!
And there was one more thing... immediately obtaining three high-reward tasks, with no direct rewards?
This meant directly giving up the other two rewards.
After a moment of thought, Cao Baiming's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked up.
"System, I choose... the first option!"
"I want three tasks, effective immediately!!"
"Received! Generating a limited-time task for the host. High rewards upon completion."
Cao Baiming paused, reflecting on his decision.
There was no single "best" choice. Life was about taking risks. Since it only mentioned high rewards, who knew what they would be?
Perhaps they would be even more substantial than the other two combined?
Whether this decision was right or wrong, he didn't know. Cao Baiming was certain of one thing at this moment: this was a more interesting choice.
Just now, he had given up the chance to double his attribute points and the opportunity to reduce the system skill upgrade requirements by thirty percent.
Cao Baiming's expression was calm as he awaited the system's response.
Soon, the anticipated voice appeared, the system's voice echoing in his mind.
"Ding! New Limited-Time Task: Obtain a Manchester City player's jersey within ten minutes. Task Reward: Guaranteed Goal Skill x20, 10 million points!"
The next task could only be applied for after this one was completed.
The rewards were quite generous, but was this task for real?!
Cao Baiming felt a bit speechless, as if he were being toyed with by a football system. This feeling... After a moment of thought, Cao Baiming finally made up his mind: he would accept the task!
Only ten minutes! Fortunately, he was still in the locker room, and the match had ended less than five minutes ago. It might still be possible to find a Manchester City player to exchange jerseys with.
It was possible, but he needed a reason!!
