The Most Random System

"We've arrived, everyone wake up, gather your things, and prepare to get off the bus." The bus slowed to a stop, and Xue Jian stood up, clapping his hands and speaking loudly.

Lin Li didn't sleep this time; Chen Yu Ying's light blue off-the-shoulder belted short dress kept him awake along the way.

Light blue, belted, off-the-shoulder, short dress, much shorter than the white dress from the first day, barely reaching her knees!

Incredible.

Paired with Chen Yu Ying's figure, even Xiaojing couldn't help but stare.

Lin Li leaned his head against the window throughout the journey, allowing his gaze to fall upon Chen Yu Ying's legs diagonally below him.

Smooth and fair, slender and straight.

The only thing marring this perfection was the owner of the legs looking a bit tense, sitting with her legs together and angled towards Ding Sihan.

Lin Li asked Chen Yu Ying why she was so nervous.

Chen Yu Ying said she felt there was a pervert on the bus peeking at her.

Lin Li was shocked to hear this, never expecting there to be such a disgusting person in the class. Luckily, after scanning the area, he didn't notice any so-called pervert, even Wang Yuezhi was behaving.

It seemed that the alleged pervert was the class president's imagination, a bit of paranoia, huh, turns out she's also a little fairy.

Chen Yu Ying hadn't fallen asleep either during the trip.

With such an arrogant pervert staring, how could she possibly sleep?

When she saw Lin Li pretending to hold back laughter while looking around for a pervert, she almost slapped Lin Li in the face, but hesitated and refrained.

It's not that she couldn't bear to, but Chen Yu Ying feared Lin Li would enjoy it more.

...

"Alright, everyone follow me, let's take the cable car from this side up the mountain." After everyone got off the bus, Xue Jian led the way.

The plan for today's autumn outing was to take the cable car up to Yunliu Mountain in Pingjiang in the morning, visit the geological museum on Yunliu Mountain in the morning, have a barbecue picnic at the outdoor base on the mountain for lunch, and start heading down around two or three in the afternoon. After coming down, they would pick up their luggage from the base and directly embark on the journey back to Xiling.

This way, they'd be back at school by around seven or eight, whether taking public transport home or being picked up by family, both options were viable through convenient scheduling.

"You get what you pay for, don't you think the gate this morning was rather weak?" Lin Li remarked casually, walking behind Bai Bufan and Zhou Baowei.

The two of them shot him a cold glance.

Lin Li's routine of getting up early to recite English deeply hurt them.

If he hadn't switched to just playing on his phone after twenty minutes, and brought breakfast, the three of them might have had a falling out.

"Standard cable car cabins can seat ten people each, while the transparent bottom cabins can only seat six people, but they aren't included in your package; it requires an additional payment of 20 yuan per person.

The whole trip takes about thirty minutes and will pause periodically, which is normal as long as it's under a minute. No reason to panic, it's actually a great opportunity for photos..." After liaising with Xue Jian, the cable car staff began to explain to everyone.

"So what if it falls?" Zhou Baowei asked, rubbing his chin as he watched the cables lifting the cable car upwards.

"A grand ceremony, budget a hundred—we're willing to chip in fifty each," Lin Li immediately replied.

"Don't presume to represent others. Last night, I said fifty on the premise I'd win two million. Now that I didn't, I'll only spare five bucks," Bai Bufan was immediately displeased.

"If you're putting in five, then I'm only giving five too," Lin Li wasn't willing to be shortchanged.

"Then I'm in for four."

"Three."

"..."

The two started haggling.

And it once again devolved into discussing ways to use their bodies, laying ground from yesterday.

Zhou Baowei: "..."

He could finally see that Lin and Bai weren't their real surnames; one should be Qiu and the other Gao, thoroughly pissed off.

[The path to the summit, protected by predecessors' arrays, brings no growth. Atop Yunliu's peak, only a journey on solid ground can truly test. Should one aspire high, shortcuts are unnecessary.

If intending to reach the highest peak, why fear hardship? Today, why not tread the path yourself!]

[Task Triggered!]

[Task Two: Rely on yourself to reach the top of Yunliu.]

[Reward: Physical Improvement: Spiritual Qi absorption rate increased by 100%; Spirit Beast Affinity increased by 50%; System Currency*50.]

Just as Lin Li followed the group to the cable car queue, the system popped up a new task.

As expected from you, little system, never making things easy.

The task was clear enough, just climb the mountain yourself.

Lin Li immediately took out his phone to look up some information, then let out a sigh of relief.

──Yunliu Mountain is very low. For those who love mountain climbing, Yunliu doesn't even count as a mountain; compared to the Five Great Mountains, it's like their skin flake.

The ascent predominantly has gentle slopes, and most sections can even be driven upon, far from rugged.

Easy to climb.

Acceptable.

Once that was confirmed, the next urgent issue was.

Lin Li hooked his left arm around Bai Bufan's neck and his right around Zhou Baowei's, pulling their heads in front of him, then earnestly said:

"Baowei, Bufan, are you interested in skipping the cable car and walking up?"

Bai Bufan: "?"

Zhou Baowei: "Are you an idiot?"

Lin Li: "..."

The scolding was fast and crisp, clearly done without any thought, instinctively treating such a suggestion as idiotic.

"Are you an idiot?" Zhou Baowei asked again, this time after giving it some thought.

Second trial upholds the original verdict.

Baowei made a good point, but this was his task, Lin Li had no choice but to comply, so he persuaded:
