After transmigrating to America, Lin Xiao is an Asian reserve on a bottom-ranked NCAA football team.
He's the most forgettable player on the team. His teammates look down on him, his coach can't remember his name, and nobody on campus thinks he deserves to wear the jersey. He never gets a chance to play, always stuck on the sidelines warming the bench.
Just as everyone assumes he'll rot on the bench forever...
[Ding! The Hard Work Pays Off System has been activated!]
“No shortcuts, no stat boosts. You'll get back exactly as much as you put in.”
And so American sports witnessed something terrifying.
The Asian kid who couldn't even guard the water cooler trained himself to the limit, then sent an opponent flying three meters with a single tackle.
The benchwarmer nobody noticed pushed himself until his legs nearly gave out, moving so fast that even slow-motion footage couldn't capture him.
The yellow-skinned kid the whole team treated like he was invisible trained until his lungs felt ready to burst, then played the entire game without even breaking a sweat!
His teammates were stunned. “When did he get so good?!”
His coach fell to his knees. “What the hell, is he cheating?”
Someone asked him how he managed to keep going.
He smiled and asked in return:
“Have you ever seen Los Angeles at four in the morning?”
Lin Xiao wiped away his sweat and smiled.
“Sorry, I've sat on the bench long enough. It's my turn to play.”
From the NCAA to the NFL, from water-cooler duty to legendary superstardom.
Hard work pays off. With his sweat, Lin Xiao made all of America remember his name!
Pure AI, I don't even know how to call it 🤮
The male protagonist's tone gave me the feeling of a gangster
