Chapter 146
Chapter 146: Blooming Business (9) But even if he didn’t say, it didn’t mean that the student wasn’t curious. His words were too vague, what a lack of sincerity! I’ve already told you about Cao Qingci, what are you still babbling about?!
Only after further questioning did the student realize that the Lu Shu classmate he was talking about was a far superior being than Cao Qingci, “That’s too amazing. Are you sure? So while you guys were hiding, he defeated those nine skeletons by himself?”
This student was still protecting his image and never mentioned how he did not plan to fight and was being protected the whole time. That would be embarrassing.
He didn’t think of the shame which would come now, what did he do earlier?
But this student wasn’t satisfied with the praises his friend had given Lu Shu as he just had a conflict with him. As he said, “He’s actually just a Tier F aptitude student who was lucky enough to awaken twice. Unlike Cao Qingci, he doesn’t have any room for improvement. His schoolmates have already confirmed that his training progress before entering the remains was extremely slow and even during the training period outside the remains, he didn’t make good use of the opportunity. He sacrificed his opportunity by executing a self-destructing move on another talented student to disrupt his training. What a snob.”
Everyone who knew what Lu Shu did to Liu Li felt that it was overboard but Lu Shu thought otherwise.
Liu Li was first to pick a bone with him by saying that he was poor and that by hanging out with himself would earn Lu Shu some small cash.
And after Liu Li had accomplished his training, he immediately arm-wrestled Lu Shu which Lu Shu took the opportunity to ‘awaken’.
Reaching the camp, Liu Li continued mocking Lu Shu by saying that his quality of food had improved.
Lu Shu didn’t feel like he did anything wrong.
Based on what do you think I should tolerate your mockery? Based on what do you reckon that I should suck up to you just because I’m poor? None of these make sense.
But Lu Shu didn’t feel the need to explain to anyone. What was done was done and there’s no need to ask for anyone’s understanding.
The glorious stories regarding Lu Shu had spread- Beside Cao Qingci, there’s another daoyuan student who could stand up to the skeleton cavalry!
In fact, the majority of daoyuan students were taken under the protection of the heavenly network and all of them were terrified. Only a few exceptions were brave as a tiger.
Since everyone was terrified, the news of an appearance of a brave student would spread wildly- another brave one had appeared within the daoyuan students!
This was like the tv show ‘touching china’. The participants were chosen because they were able to achieve what others couldn’t.
Lu Shu’s name had suddenly become a synonym for a great expert. Although his future was looking dim compared to Cao Qingci and his aptitude wasn’t as high as Cao Qingci’s Tier A, he was still a brave person without question.”
A group of people was curious, “where’s the expert, let us meet him.”
The person who was traveling with Lu Shu had no other choice and started looking for signs of Lu Shu. But when they found him, the timing couldn’t be worse!
Lu Shu was humming a tune and looking over a stall where he had displayed his two bundles of weapons. After setting up his stall, Lu Shu was casually sitting there, “Weapons for sale! Weapons for sale! High quality and cheap!”
They were instantly disappointed…
Everyone looked at one another in disbelief. This ragged, wearing two watches on one hand and one on the other, with two gold chains around his neck person, is that legendary expert?!
A few of them turned to look at the person who traveled with Lu Shu while those who recognized Lu Shu nodded expressionlessly. Yup, that’s him!
Wow, everyone took a deep breath. This was different what they had imagined.
“From…” Lu Shu received a wave of distress points.
Someone at the side asked curiously, “He didn’t share any weapons with you after he defeated the cavalry?”
The person who was questioned once again nodded expressionlessly. Yup, not a single one…
“From…” Lu Shu received another wave of distress points.
Someone went over to Lu Shu’s side and felt a strange vibe from the watches, gold chains and other items on Lu Shu’s body. He investigated, “How much are the weapons?”
“Exchange them for goods. Watches or gold chains would do, as long as they are worth something,” Lu Shu replied gleefully.
The people who saw Lu Shu’s gold chains and watches finally realized where that stuff came from…
Lu Shu received another wave of distress points. He was practically celebrating inside, are there still any more of such remains? Give me a dozen more!
“How does the exchange work?” someone asked.
“Items that are worth 10 thousand can be exchanged for a weapon. It’s a fair trade,” Lu Shu was planning to finish selling his weapons and to leave five spears for himself to be used for killing.
At this moment, Lu Shu was hopeful- it seemed like there was some mystery inside the hole. If what they were facing inside the hole were ghosts, wouldn’t that mean that… he had an overwhelming advantage?!
Upon hearing his prices, most of the students took a step back disappointingly. Even though they were relatively rich, which family would give their high school children something that expensive? And these weapons being sold, who knew if they could be kept after getting out?
But soon after, Lu Shu casually said, “Everyone is now stuck at the mysterious chapter right? What about the credit you’re given for contributing a weapon…? I’ve no idea when we would be imparted the chapter after the mysterious senses. Do you guys know?”
The students who were about to leave were halted in their steps. There weren’t stupid and what Lu Shu said had caught their attention!
Everyone knew that the subsequent chapters for future training weren’t easy to come by as they did not have a Tier A aptitude like Cao Qingci!
Before entering the remains, they had discussed the possible methods to be rewarded training methods for their contributions but did not come up with anything. And yet, Lu Shu’s words had just opened the door to the answer they were looking for!
The student who traveled alongside Lu Shu suddenly understood why so many people from the heavenly network would buy Lu Shu’s weapons. So this was their reason…
As compared to just for protection, obtaining the next chapter of training was far more alluring.
Lu Shu did not directly state that the weapons could be exchanged for training methods. What if they couldn’t? Wouldn’t Lu Shu be held solely accountable?
Someone suddenly took off his pendant, “Made of nephrite jade, worth 6000. Will this do?”
“Barely acceptable, anyone else would like to exchange?”
Lu Shu saw the people around him getting excited. His business was finally blooming!
