They promised to win the swimming championship, but what's with this "Grand Slam" thi

Chapter 30: A Huge Reward Explosion!
Ding!
[Congratulations, host! You have won first place in the men's 50m freestyle preliminary round at the Chinese Swimming Championships. Reward: 100 experience points!]

Ding!
【恭喜宿主打破了1993年4月9日由陈铁涛在中国游泳竞技大赛创造的23秒53男子50米自由泳国家少年纪录，奖励经验200点！】

Ding!
[Congratulations, host, you have officially reached the national level 3, 2, and 1 athlete standards, and are now a national-level master athlete. You have been awarded a total of 1800 experience points!]

Ding!
[Congratulations, host, for unlocking the 'Advancement Mission'!]

[Advancement Task]: Breaking various records and obtaining rankings, awards, and rewards in various competitions will all earn you corresponding experience points.

[Note: If a record is broken multiple times in the same project, the experience gained will be reduced accordingly!]

……

"What the hell!"

Even though Wu Jin knew that the system had been giving out a lot of rewards, she never expected that the rewards would be this many this time!
A total of 2100 experience points.

"Sent!"

"This competition is definitely the best way to gain experience!"

He trained for almost a month and only gained 1000 experience points. But in this one match, he gained 2100.

And it's only the group stage.

"It seems I can participate in more competitions and break some records to upgrade my skills!"

Breaking the record?

Listen to what people are saying.

"2100...how do I add that?"

Too many experience rewards can also be a nuisance.

Wu Jin sat in the athletes' rest area, waiting for Cai Li, who was undergoing a test, so they could go out for dinner together.

Wang Haibo sat next to him, while Xu Guoyi went to the rest area of ​​other provinces and cities to show off to a group of coaches.

It's a good opportunity for Wu Jin to come and check on what she gained from this competition.

"We definitely need to add more sprinting!"

The 0.1-second boost from level 1 is gone in a flash. In the 50-meter freestyle preliminaries, if he had been just one meter ahead, he would have been eliminated by Zhou Jiawei. So, 0.1 seconds is still not enough.

If you can sprint to the finish line, why be afraid of being defeated in the final moments?
"Should we level it up to 10 right away?"

Wu Jin was still worried, so she quickly leveled up by 1 level.

[Sprint]: Beginner level 2 (100/200), grants a 0.2-second swimming sprint boost.

Sure enough, looking at the updated skills, the sprint bonus is much weaker than the speed boost.

Acceleration level 1 adds 1 second, while sprint level 1 only adds 0.1 seconds!
That's the difference.

"Forget it, let's just go straight to level 10 first!"

Wu Jin is wealthy and powerful. Anyway, the semi-finals will be held in the afternoon, and the rewards for second place and first place in the semi-finals will definitely be different.

If you can be first, why be second?

Furthermore, there was an element of luck involved in winning first place in the preliminary round.

At the very least, Chen Zuo hadn't swum at full strength yet, but Zhou Jiawei knew he should give it his all.

But you never know.

Therefore, we still need to add some skills in the semifinals to break even.

"Laman!"

Wu Jin spent 800 points to directly upgrade the Sprint skill to level 10.

[Sprint]: Beginner level 10 (900/2000), grants a 1-second swimming sprint boost.

"Ok?"

Looking at the level 10 sprint and level 10 acceleration, Wu Jin suddenly discovered a key point.

"What the hell?"

"900/2000?"

"You need 1100 experience points to level up to the next level?"

Wu Jin glanced at the sprint and acceleration indicators, and it was indeed true.

Level 10-11 requires 1100 experience points.

This caused Wu Jin, who had just gained 2100 points, to instantly plummet from the feeling of becoming rich overnight.

"I knew it! Holy crap!"

What a waste of your happiness.

Looking at the 1200 experience points remaining in the upper right corner of the system, Wu Jin suddenly felt a pang of regret.

This is only enough to level up once! "Accelerate, or sprint?"

After thinking it over, Wu Jin decided not to hold back, in order to prepare for the semi-finals and finals in the afternoon.

Maximize your strength to maximize your ranking!

"add!"

Wu Jin added 1100 experience points to the [Basic Acceleration] skill. He felt that the difference between adding 11 or 1.2 seconds to a level 1.1 sprint and 1 second was not significant.

It can accelerate, and a full second or more is quite powerful for a 50-meter pool.

An improvement of about 0.3 seconds!
This is based on Wu Jin's analysis of the performance improvement from level 1 to level 10 during this period.

Swish!
The next second, Wu Jin saw the virtual panel in front of her burst out with a dazzling... green light.

"Why the hell are you green?"

Wu Jin was speechless, and then she discovered—

The skills have changed!
Oh no, the skill icon color has changed.

It changed from white to green!
"Haha, this was a blank slate, has it turned into a high-level skill or something?"

Wu Jin smiled and saw that the [Acceleration] skill had actually become intermediate.

【加速】：中级lv1（0/1000），可获得12秒的游泳速度加持，额外水系亲和增加10%！

[Note: Aquatic affinity reduces the impact of the swimming pool on the host; the higher the proportion, the smaller the impact!]

"12 seconds!"

"Water affinity?"

As expected of the green color, it even randomly gave away an attribute.

"Awesome!"

That adds 2 seconds, so wouldn't that make it 0.6 seconds faster?
Anyway, the previous 1 second at the beginner level 1 could add about 0.3 seconds!
This intermediate level 1 can't possibly get weaker and weaker, right?
Wu Jin grinned, feeling that she could finally challenge her national record.

He even wanted to rush into the pool right now to test it.

With intermediate acceleration and level 10 basic acceleration, what kind of result can I achieve when I go full throttle?

Fortunately, he suppressed the urge!

"calm!"

"Let's talk about it this afternoon!"

As Wu Jin was thinking this, she saw Cai Li walk over from the corridor.

As a veteran player, he would instinctively look at the rankings, and his expression changed immediately upon seeing that Wu Jin was ranked first.

He ranked fifth in the preliminaries!
The result was actually quite good, 23.18 seconds, which is similar to his usual performance, but it did not reach his personal best.

The swimming pool still has some impact on him.

Wu Jin's performance was a burst of talent, and it was also her first manifestation of a sprint.

"Brother Cai!"

Wu Jin called out, and Wang Haibo, who was next to her, also stood up: "Not bad, all three of us advanced!"

"Wu Jin is amazing! She can swim in 23.09 seconds!"

As a veteran player, Wang Haibo naturally has excellent insight and high emotional intelligence.

"Great!"

Cai Li smiled at Wu Jin, while Wang Haibo, who was standing to the side, thought that Cai Li had been surpassed by Wu Jin and felt embarrassed.

In hindsight, I was overthinking it.

"Let's have another semi-final match!"

Cai Li spoke to Wu Jin, who, of course, wouldn't back down and smiled brightly: "Okay, Brother Cai!"

"Okay, let's go eat?"

The two couldn't decipher Cai Li's expression. Before this, he had always been a man of few words and very concerned about his grades.

Wu Jin felt...relief?
It's like a string that's been taut for a long time suddenly being released.

His own 23.09 seconds seems to have had some impact on him!

"go!"

"Let's eat first, then take a nap. The competition starts at 3 o'clock anyway!"

As Wang Haibo was talking, the three of them didn't wait for Xu Guoyi and headed towards the canteen of the swimming center in Jinshi.
