Just as Ye Changfeng was wondering when the main quest would appear, the system’s notification sounded again.
Ding!
[Main Quest Unlocked: Join the Seigaku Tennis Club]
[Quest Rank: White Quest]
(A/N note: Quests are divided into White, Green, Blue, Purple, Orange, Legendary, and Epic.

[Failure Penalty: Let us hope you don’t fail such a simple quest…]
[Success Reward: 10,000 Exchange Points, Combat Power +5,000]
[Quest Evaluation: The first step of the Long March.
This is the true starting point of the user’s journey to surpass the gods.
The road ahead is long and full of challenges.
Joining the Seigaku Tennis Club is only your first step.
Keep moving forward, young man!]
Ding!
Main Quest activated.
User receives +1 lottery draw chance!
The system rang out twice in quick succession.
“Finally, the main quest is here.” Ye Changfeng analyzed calmly.
“Join the Seigaku Tennis Club?
That doesn’t sound too difficult.
It doesn’t even require me to become a regular.
Since it’s only a White Quest, this is probably just a tutorial.
The 10,000 point reward is pretty generous though.”
“Huh?
System, what’s this lottery draw chance?” Ye Changfeng asked curiously.
“Reporting to Master, the lottery is a mini-game in the Super God System.
You can randomly obtain any skill or item that is available for exchange with points,” the system explained.
“Even the three doors of Muga no Kyōchi?” Ye Changfeng asked excitedly.
“Yes.
Everything is completely random.”
“Then what are we waiting for?
System, I want to draw!” Ye Changfeng said eagerly.
Ding!
Lottery draw commencing!
A massive wheel appeared in mid-air.
There were sixteen segments in total.
Focusing on any icon would display what it represented.
Eight of the segments were tennis skills from Prince of Tennis:
– Pinnacle of Hard Work – Intermediate
– Pinnacle of Great Wisdom – Beginner
– Zero-Shiki Drop Shot – Advanced
– Special Shot Technique – Grandmaster
– Scud Serve – Advanced
– Cyclone Snake – Master
– Wave Ball – Grandmaster
– Blazing Ball – God Level
Just seeing them made Ye Changfeng drool.
If he could get all of these, he would be ridiculously overpowered!
The other eight segments were various special skills: Light Novel Writing – Grandmaster, Cooking – God Level, Karate – Advanced, Driving – Master, Painting – Master, Calligraphy – Grandmaster, Tea Ceremony – Advanced… and the final segment had a big “Fortune” character.
“Hahaha!
System, are all these for me?
Thank you so much!
Super God System, I love you!
You’re number one in the universe!” Ye Changfeng laughed wildly.
“Master, please do not overindulge in delusions.
It’s bad for your health,” the system said dryly.
“See the cursor on the wheel?
Once you say ‘start,’ it will spin.
Whatever segment it lands on will be yours.”
“Tch, I knew it wasn’t that generous… Still, this is pretty much like the slot machines from the arcade,” Ye Changfeng sighed.
“By the way, what does the ‘Fortune’ segment mean?”
“Landing on Fortune triggers the jackpot.
Three cursors will appear, allowing you to win three different segments,” the system explained.
“Wow, really?!
Awesome!
I want the jackpot!
Gimme the jackpot!” Ye Changfeng shouted excitedly.
Aside from the jackpot, his most desired prizes were Pinnacle of Hard Work – Intermediate and Pinnacle of Great Wisdom – Beginner.
Even at the beginner/intermediate stage, those two doors of Muga no Kyōchi were ultimate techniques.
Getting even one would skyrocket his combat power — possibly straight into the Tennis King realm.
Zero-Shiki Drop Shot – Advanced, Special Shot Technique – Grandmaster, and Soul Shot – Grandmaster were also very attractive.
The others like Blazing Ball – God Level had potential, but he really didn’t want the random life skills like Tea Ceremony, Driving, or Calligraphy.
Of course, the absolute best outcome was hitting the Fortune segment and getting three prizes.
“Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits!” Ye Changfeng chanted dramatically, trying to gather cosmic luck like a total chuunibyou.
“No Tea Ceremony, no Driving, no Calligraphy, no Karate!
I want the jackpot!
I want Fortune!” he muttered nonstop until he finally made up his mind.
“Go!”
The cursor began spinning rapidly.
Ye Changfeng’s heart rose along with it.
The cursor gradually slowed down.
Light Novel Writing – Grandmaster… passed!
Special Shot Technique – Grandmaster… passed!
Pinnacle of Hard Work – Intermediate… damn, passed!
Zero-Shiki Drop Shot – Advanced… also passed!
Only three or four segments remained: Cooking – God Level, Wave Ball – Grandmaster, and Pinnacle of Great Wisdom – Beginner.
“It has to be Pinnacle of Great Wisdom – Beginner!” Ye Changfeng held his breath.
One… two…
“Come on!
Just a little more!” he roared.
The cursor crawled like a snail and landed on Pinnacle of Great Wisdom – Beginner… only to slowly drift past it.
“Fuck!” Ye Changfeng collapsed in disappointment.
The next one was Driving – Master — completely useless.
Ding!
Congratulations, Master!
You have won the jackpot!
The system played the classic jackpot sound effect.
Ye Changfeng was stunned.
Somehow, the cursor had continued moving at a snail’s pace and stopped right on the “Fortune” segment.
“Yes!” Ye Changfeng thrust his fist into the air.
Ding!
Jackpot draw commencing!
Three cursors appeared and began jumping randomly across the wheel.
Ye Changfeng simply closed his eyes and waited.
Ding!
Congratulations, Master!
You have obtained:
Zero-Shiki Drop Shot – Advanced
Scud Serve – Advanced
Cooking – God Level
Not bad, not amazing.
At least he didn’t get any completely useless skills.
He was still a little disappointed he didn’t pull either of the two Muga doors, but overall this lottery round was already a huge win.
“System, open my status!” Ye Changfeng said.
Ding!

“Nice!

Ye Changfeng looked at his new stats with satisfaction.
No wonder he hit the jackpot today — his Luck Value was 8.
If it had been 10, maybe he would have gotten both Muga doors!
Next stop: Seigaku.
Just thinking about finally meeting the legendary Kunimitsu Tezuka, Shuichiro Oishi, Shusuke Fuji, and Ryoma Echizen made Ye Changfeng a little excited…
