Starting with playing defensive midfield for Evergrande

Chapter 43: The Purple Treasure Chest is Opened!
"Ding dong!"

"Main quest: Professional league debut completed."

"Mission Completion Level: S!"

Quest Reward: Purple Treasure Chest

"Activate or not?"

As soon as he got home, Su Hao hurriedly went straight into his bedroom.

However, to Su Hao's disappointment, the reward for this mission was only a purple treasure chest.

With an S-level completion, he was originally hoping to at least get an orange-level legendary reward.

"Turn on!"

Although he was a little disappointed, Su Hao still chose to activate it immediately, adhering to the principle that even a small amount is still something.

"Ding dong!"

A golden light flashed as usual.

"Congratulations, host, you have obtained Attribute Unlock Card *1!"

[Attribute Unlock Card]

[Item Level: Premium Purple (Consumable)]

[PS: The host can use this card to randomly unlock the initial data and upgrade path in their panel]

Ok?
Disappointed?

After hearing the system's explanation of this thing, Su Hao's previous disappointment vanished instantly.

Do not!
To be precise, Su Hao was instantly overjoyed.

There was nothing he could do; it was a terrible situation for someone whose control panel was completely locked.

This thing is top-notch!
Absolutely top-notch!

Without much hesitation, Su Hao chose to use it.

"Ding dong!"

"Attribute unlock card in use!"

"10%!"

"."

"100%"

"Random panel attribute: Ball control unlocked!"

Initial ball control value: 80!

"Upgrade cap: 89!"

Upgrade method: Training + Competition

After a long period of anxious waiting, Su Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, it wasn't something like goalkeeping skills that were unlocked.

Control the ball!

This is definitely the attribute that Su Hao needs most right now.

Moreover, after unlocking the ball possession stat, Su Hao finally understood why he was able to dominate in the Chinese Super League.

A ball possession rating of 80 is not high in Europe's top five leagues, but it's also quite high compared to the Chinese Super League, where the average is around 60-70.
80 is a completely overwhelming force.

Of course, the most important thing is that this ball control value of 80 also has an exaggerated talent ceiling of 89.

At this moment, Su Hao was already fantasizing about how terrifying he would be a year from now, with 89 ball control and 95 passing.

At least he can be a key player for a second-tier European powerhouse!
The next day!

Su Hao's Chinese Super League debut was stunning!

"A New Hope for Chinese Football: A 16-Year-Old from Evergrande Football School Makes His Chinese Super League Debut!"

"A product of Evergrande is guaranteed to be top-notch! The records for youngest player to appear, score, and assist in the Chinese Super League have been broken!" "The most impressive debut in the Chinese Super League! Su Hao has become the strongest newcomer in Chinese professional football!"

A spectacular opening match has come to an end.

Su Hao, who broke three records, naturally became the focus of the nation once again.

Even CCTV1's morning news featured a report on Su Hao's debut performance.

I'm angry!

Compared to his minor success after the AFC Champions League, Su Hao has truly become a sensation this time!

He's become so popular that reporters have even interviewed Su Haoheng, the head teacher of the Evergrande Football School, and his students.

However, what no one knows is that the super rookie who has been attracting the attention of fans all over China is currently struggling with a series of complicated exam papers.

Yes!

Su Hao's mother really wasn't just saying it.

The morning after Su Hao returned home, his mother placed the test papers she had prepared for several days into his hands.

"Xiao Hao, these are the monthly exam papers from your homeroom teacher. There are six subjects in total. Let's say you have two hours to answer each subject. You can't overwork yourself. How about this, since your club has two days off anyway, you can do three subjects a day, and two days will be just right!"

"No! I have to go to the club. The coach there has set up a separate training plan for me, and I can't just disobey the coach!"

Faced with the thick stack of exam papers, Su Hao could only start making things up.

However, to Su Hao's dismay, even though his mother believed he needed to go for training, she still put the test paper in his bag.

Got it!
Left with no other choice, Su Hao could only leave home carrying a stack of test papers.

That night.

Because he had spent all his time training during the day, Su Hao could only carry the test papers to Elkeson's house.

Su Hao had initially thought that Elkeson had only called Conca and Muriqui, but when he arrived, he realized that almost the entire team was there!
This time it was embarrassing.

Qin Sheng is here. If I take out my test paper after dinner, who knows how this guy will laugh at me.

But
But I don't have much time. If I don't finish writing tonight, I won't be able to train tomorrow.

After much deliberation
For the newly acquired ball control bonus!
Su Hao finally gritted his teeth and pulled out the exam paper. While the others started showing off their beer, he lay down on the table and started working on it.

"Hahaha!!! Hahahaha!!!"

"Hahahahahahaha!!!"

Sure enough, as soon as he pulled out the test paper, Qin Sheng, that shameless guy, immediately burst into laughter as if he was about to have a seizure.

Not only Qin Sheng, but even Zheng Zhi, who usually protected him, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

However, despite the laughter, Su Hao did gain something.

At least under the eldest brother's orders, the whole team started helping Su Hao.

As the saying goes, many hands make light work!

With the help of the entire Evergrande team, Su Hao's answering speed naturally improved by several levels!

Zhang Linpeng: "I know this Chinese question. It's a poem by Su Shi: 'The monkeys' cries on both banks cannot be stopped.' The next line should be 'A line of white egrets soars into the blue sky!' Absolutely perfect!"

Zhao Xuri — "You're talking nonsense! The next line of 'The monkeys' cries on both banks cannot be stopped' is clearly 'It seems as if the Milky Way is falling from the ninth heaven!'"

Qin Sheng: "Haha, you two idiots, can you stop spouting nonsense to Xiao Hao? This...this is a poem by Li Bai, my son memorized it for me!"

Zheng Zhi – “This quadratic equation x²/25x + 6 = 0 is very simple. Solve it using factorization, and I'll explain how.”

Everyone else was just causing trouble, but Zheng Zhi's factorization method immediately caught Su Hao's eye.

I must say, Zheng Zhi is really good at it. As far as I remember, Zheng Zhi had already graduated from South China Normal University at this time, and with a formal bachelor's degree.
A group of people surrounded Su Hao, who was doing his homework, laughing and joking.

Huang Bowen secretly took a photo and posted it on his Weibo account.

Huang Bowen originally just wanted to share with fans the harmonious daily life of the team.

However, Huang Bowen did not expect that once the photo was posted, it would cause a stir.

It quickly rose to the top of Weibo's trending topics list!
And trending words even more so.
Do professional athletes also have to do homework?
