The game was over, and it was time to reap the rewards.

Not long ago, Lu Ke received an integrated training package, which was specifically for offseason training to comprehensively improve his skills. Now, through this week's special task, Lu Ke had the opportunity to upgrade the integrated training package. He, of course, clicked "confirm" without hesitation to upgrade the training package.

After the upgrade, the entire training framework underwent a huge change. At first, the integrated training package was more like a daily training plan, completing offseason training with detailed logs. Now, the integrated training package had a clear, more systematic, and more professional framework. The training framework included passing drills, strength training, footwork drills, tactical training, defensive reading drills, film study, and more. By combining different exercises, he could create a three-month training plan to achieve his training goals clearly and accurately, which was almost like having a senior professional personal trainer.

Unlike the mandatory daily training tasks, this was more like a training treasure. Based on Lu Ke's requests and choices, a detailed framework would be created. Then, he would carry it out according to his personal will, laying a solid foundation for the heavy offseason training. The training results would naturally vary from person to person. This made Lu Ke excited. He was looking forward to this year's offseason.

Of course, there was also Logan Newman. Lu Ke would never forget that there was still a training gift package waiting for Logan. They could enjoy three months of high-intensity training, fully equipped and upgraded. Now, Lu Ke was most curious if the integrated training package could continue to be upgraded if the 49ers could continue to win the next two games.

In the locker room, Logan was having a lightsaber duel with Colin Jones and Aldon Smith, using empty shampoo bottles filled with hot water. When they squeezed the bottles, a jet of water would shoot out like a lightsaber. The three of them were dueling with each other like high school students, having a great time.

Logan was gaining the upper hand when he suddenly started sneezing, one after another. Caught off guard, Logan kept retreating. Colin and Aldon continued to attack aggressively, making Logan flustered. But he didn't understand what was going on. Did he catch a cold?

There was no time to think about it. He raised his lightsaber and began to counterattack. "Take this!"

After opening the upgraded points lottery ticket and the integrated training package upgrade, Lu Ke's eyes fell on the other reward: a random single item with an additional fifteen base points.

Since this reward came from a special task, and this week's special task was to face Drew Brees head-on, Lu Ke naturally guessed that the random item might be a quarterback-related skill. After all, it was a task about quarterbacks. But after a quick scan, he didn't notice any special changes.

Lu Ke frowned slightly and immediately realized that he was too careless and took things for granted. So, he took a deep breath, calmed down, and started from the beginning, carefully looking at each item, one by one. This time, he successfully found the item that had received the bonus base points:

Stiff-arm ability, 70.

This score was too unbelievable and stood out like a sore thumb. Without a second thought, Lu Ke knew that the stiff-arm ability was where the reward was added.

As a traditional pocket quarterback, Lu Ke's various mobile skills were not impressive at all: ball-carrying run at 71, evasiveness at 63, stiff-arm at 55, juke at 55, and fake-out at 55. The shortcomings were very obvious. Overall, his footwork was fine in the pocket with offensive line protection. But once he left the pocket, he would have problems everywhere when facing opposing players. His ability to withstand and move was not good, which limited his ability to run.

The rushing touchdown in today's game was the most direct proof. Even with the special "bullet time" ability, he was still very cautious when avoiding defenders and choosing his running lane. There were indeed many problems.

Lu Ke had a clear understanding of his weaknesses, but he had never paid enough attention to them. The reason was simple. On the one hand, in the course of the game, ball-carrying mobility was not used frequently, and in crucial moments, his special abilities were enough to handle all kinds of crises. Furthermore, in Lu Ke's tactical plan, running was not the main part.

On the other hand, the main skills of a quarterback still had a lot of room for improvement. Since he had not yet grown to a high enough level as a pocket quarterback, based on the principle of priority, Lu Ke temporarily ignored the improvement of his running-related skills and focused on his passing skills.

Today, the random bonus points were added to his stiff-arm ability, which was completely unexpected. It went from 55 to 70, a true transformation. After his guess was confirmed, Lu Ke couldn't help but cover his face. His first thought was that it was a "waste," because even if his stiff-arm ability was improved to 70, Lu Ke would still rarely run out of the pocket. And his juke, fake-out, and evasiveness skills wouldn't be improved accordingly, so his overall mobility would still not be a big threat.

But after he calmed down and thought about it, Lu Ke's mindset gradually became peaceful. He told himself that this was a random addition of points, so anything was possible. At least the points weren't added to wide receiver-related skills like route running, spectacular catches, or crowd catches. That was a blessing. What's more, he had just joked in the reporter's interview that he would have to prioritize footwork training this offseason, and now the system had already laid the groundwork for it.

So... this was a good thing? A good thing that came true?

After confirming all the other options, it was finally time for the highlight: the gold points, the gold points that could break the perfect score barrier.

In today's game, Lu Ke truly felt the effect of a perfect tactical awareness for the first time: all tactical systems and changes became exceptionally "clear," and all tactical compositions and layouts became exceptionally "simple." Of course, the so-called "clear" and "simple" were only for Lu Ke. For his opponents, everything became complicated and difficult.

But did this mean he was perfect and omnipotent? Of course not.

First, the premise for perfect tactical awareness was a good preparation, a detailed understanding of his own playbook, and a comprehensive understanding of the opposing team's defensive tactics through film study. Otherwise, even with a perfect tactical awareness, he wouldn't be able to function without any fuel.

Second, the important impact of his game performance. Being nervous or completely focused in crucial moments could affect his performance. This was the case for the last two offensive drives in today's game. A small deviation could lead to a completely different result. It's like being sick. When you have a fever, even a genius can make a mistake.

Third, an accurate understanding of his teammates' performance. Tactical plans are just theory, but in the actual game, it's crucial how to use your weapons accurately and maximize their effectiveness. So besides tactics, it was also very important for a quarterback to control his teammates' performance and the flow of the game. In today's game, Crabtree's performance was relatively average, while Vernon was much better.

Once again, Lu Ke deeply felt the complexity and unpredictability of football. Diego Maradona could be a god on the soccer field, but no one could be a god on the football field. To win a game, every part of the team had to work perfectly together to truly unleash the power of the team. Of course, as a quarterback and the brain of the team, continuously improving himself was Lu Ke's most important task.

The perfect score and the non-perfect score showed a difference in all aspects, including height, depth, and breadth. Now, Lu Ke had two gold points again, which meant that two more items could break the perfect score barrier.

Long pass accuracy: 99

Injury resistance index: 99

Anticipation: 99

These were the three single items with a score of 99 right now.

Lu Ke seriously thought about whether he should first consider other skills, add points to them until they reached 99, and then use the gold points to break the barrier and reach a perfect score. But he quickly gave up this idea. Because long pass accuracy, injury resistance index, and anticipation were the first to reach this level because they were prioritized. Their importance to the game and his career was irreplaceable. It was only natural that they would be the first to cross the finish line.

So, without any hesitation, Lu Ke began to add the gold points. The first one he chose to upgrade was long pass accuracy. Without any surprise, 99 became 100.

Vaguely, Lu Ke could feel a tingling sensation coming from his fingertips. It wasn't very obvious, but it was a light feeling, like his fingertips were slowly rubbing against velvet. That delicate sense of control was indescribable but incredibly comfortable. He couldn't help but rub his fingertips and immerse himself in it.

Then, that tingling sensation climbed up his fingers, palm, and wrist, little by little, like a feather was lightly brushing against him. Goosebumps appeared on his skin, with a faint, tingling feeling, like an internal massage. That feeling was indescribable and unforgettable.

Interestingly, not only could his right hand, which he used to pass, feel it, but his left hand, which he used for support, could feel a similar sensation. But all the feelings were fleeting. Before he could savor them, all the comfort receded like a tide and disappeared without a trace.

Lu Ke knew that his long pass accuracy had been completely transformed.
