What happened:
When I booted the computer, chkdsk started and said "To skip disk checking press any key within 8 second(s)" and continued to count down. After I press a key, it just restarts to 8 seconds and continues to count down. I need to spam that key for a while in order to go to the Windows Version Selector screen to boot to Windows. If I don't press anything, it finishes its 8-second countdown and starts checking. But this check is weird. It just performs a very fast check within less than 0.5 seconds and continues to show "To skip disk checking ..." and behaves like what I provided before. Just a loop of disk checking. I tried many methods at the following section.

I just turn off the computer and left it in 1 hour.
I don't know why and how does the problem disappear.
I tried restarted many times to test if the problem still appears.
I checked the event log, THERE is no NTFS errors left.
Anyway thanks for your help, because your answer helps the problem on my computer disappears.

When available post Sea Tools for Windows Long Generic test result images or share links into this thread using one drive, drop box, or google drive.
I don't have a USB so I downloaded Sea tool and installed it on my computer.
I performed Short Generic Test, Passed.
I performed the following code in local WinRE (NOT in MCT) that you provided.
bcdedit
bcdedit | find "osdevice"
chkdsk /b /v C:
finished.
The problem still appears.
Find a flash drive that you can format (> or = 8 GB).
Find a working Windows computer.
On the working Windows computer create a bootable Sea Tools flash drive.
https://www.seagate.com/support/downloads/seatools/
Move the flash drive to the problematic computer and boot to the flash drive.
Boot to the Sea Tools flash drive > run both the short and long generic tests > post images or share links into this thread using one drive, drop box, or google drive.
If the short or long generic test displays fail then backup files and replace the disk drive.
If the short or long generic tests displays pass then repurpose the flash drive.
On the working Windows computer create a bootable Windows 10 Media Creation Tool (MCT) (Windows 10 iso).
Download Windows 10 ISO File | Tutorials (tenforums.com)
Download Windows 10 (microsoft.com)
Move the flash drive to the problematic computer and boot to the flash drive.
Boot to the MCT > Windows Recovery Environment (RE) > Troubleshoot > command prompt > Type:

chkdsk /b /v W:
(Replace the drive letter W: with the partition drive letter seen in the prior command result.)
C:\WINDOWS\system32>chkdsk /b /v
The type of the file system is NTFS.
Cannot lock current drive.
Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be
checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)
Type: Y
(Reboot as needed.)
