Oh my gosh!
Zhang Hao kept blinking his eyes, it actually worked!
Just when Zhang Hao’s brain was on the fritz, the subtitles changed once more with new prompts.
At this mont, Zhang Hao wanted to look at that prompt again, and to his surprise, the subtitles spontaneously reverted to the previous prompt.
Looking at the "Find System Glitch Reward" prompt, Zhang Hao finally realized he had found a bug in this cheat, a way to complete the conditions theoretically even though it wasn’t explicitly listed.
Maybe he should pay more attention in the future, there might be other bugs to exploit!
Oh yes! The new prompt!
As Zhang Hao thought of this, the subtitles switched to the latest prompt he hadn’t viewed yet.
"Task 1 successfully completed. Congratulations, the host gains 15 days of life extension.
Player detection function is now active.
Remaining lifespan: 380 days. Usable lifespan: 379 days."
Indeed! Completing the task increased the remaining lifespan!
"Player detection function? Wait, wasn’t there also a Growth Card for finding the bug as a special reward—Top-level Mid-range Jump Shot Training Card?"
As Zhang Hao thought about this, the subtitles changed imdiately.
"Player Detection Function: During matches, allows the observation of players’ abilities in various aspects such as physical fitness, shooting ability, and technical level in order to assess comprehensive capabilities. Based on opponents’ technical characteristics, it predicts playing strategies for tactical planning.
The system categorizes player technical skills into: Ordinary, Good, Outstanding, Quasi Top-level, Top-level.
In FIBA and NBA professional basketball, different judgnts are made based on rules, style of play, etc.
The system uses a 100-point scale to classify levels:
60-69 is Ordinary level.
70-79 is Good level.
80-84 is Outstanding level.
85-89 is Quasi Top-level.
90-94 is Top-level.
(Note: This is rely a player skill rating and does not evaluate a player’s stature within the team, which is influenced by tenure, contributions, leadership, focus areas, etc.)"
"Growth Card: Mid-range Shooting Expert:
The host uses the Mid-range Shooting Training Card (Top-Level) on the signed player. The player’s muscle mory gains substantial bonuses during mid-range shooting practice, and their training comprehension improves greatly, rapidly enhancing mid-range shooting ability with the best talent until reaching Top-Level (90), at which point the training bonus ends."
Growth Card! This is a treasure!
But it’s a special reward, it might not be easy to obtain.
Though the Player Detection Function is incredibly useful, as he is a devoted basketball fan knowledgeable about NBA from the 90s until before 2015. Later, the NBA was ruined by a guy looking like an androgynous misfit, and he stopped following it.
Still, there must be many overlooked talents, like future Van Jordan or Brogdon, one undrafted, one a second-round pick. The forr was lucky to be called back from the Developnt League by the Raptors due to a lack of backup point guards, while the latter got his break as Bucks’ Jennings failed as point guard.
As a coach, this function is excellent.
Moreover, being able to detect a player’s physical attributes, shooting abilities, technical skills could be hugely advantageous as a player too!
Zhang Hao hasn’t given up the potential of becoming a player because he’s actually quite talented. Among California’s high schoolers, he’s considered very impressive.
Suddenly, Zhang Hao felt sothing was off when he glanced at the subtitles again.
"FIBA? NBA professional basketball? Wait, wasn’t I supposed to go to university? How co it’s straight to NBA and FIBA?"
By now, the subtitle contents had already switched, displaying signed players, tasks, rewards... along with a special signed player.
There was a (1) next to tasks and rewards, but in signed players, it was (0), whereas for special signed players, it was (1).
Thinking about the special signed player, the subtitles changed again.

"Bench player? I admit being technically monotone, but slim build?"
Zhang Hao was puzzled by the evaluation; his physique in California was quite formidable, except for those few athletic freaks.
Apart from Pierce, Keith Van Horn, Bobby Jackson, and other excellent players in recent years who perford better in local high school leagues, even so predicted as first-round picks in ’97 or ’98 drafts after a few college years weren’t as impressive as him.
