Chapter 32: A Huge Sum

“From Ye Lingling’s distress, +110.”

“From…”

Having achieved 10k distress points previously, this sudden flood of income easily broke that record, increasing his total balance to over 13k.

Note that the whole class only had about 60 people!

Lu Shu felt that the harvest of distress points today was really rewarding. The value of distress points to Lu Shu was way higher than what Daoyuan class or anything else for that matter.

Could the Daoyuan class directly increase his powers? No.

But if not for the Daoyuan class, he would not have had the opportunity to earn so much distress points.

He had to be grateful to the students. They were too generous!

Lu Shu predicted that even after school, these students would be reminded of the incident today and continued to generate distress points…

Even at this moment, the records were constantly being updated with +10 +19 distress points and if this went on, he would achieve 15k distress points by tonight.

But the other students were getting used to it. Lu Shu already had a very sharp tongue in the past but recently, it had gotten worse. Did something happen?

Could it be that he had already awakened? That explains why he had become more arrogant!

That must be it, Lu Shu must have awakened!

But speculations would remain speculations and it was a fact that everyone was envious of Lu Shu. Being able to enter the Daoyuan class had everyone look at him in a different light, just like looking up to the Tsinghua University of Beijing. After the appearance of the golden foundation’s website, everyone’s opinions of others were now based on a different set of factors.

If parents were asked for their opinions, they would definitely value studies more and new trends like awakening may not be as important.

Unless metahumans could really make it big in the society or if they witnessed the prowess of metahumans with their own eyes, then would everyone finally understand how much influence awakening actually had.

As of now, there were only a few strange videos circulating around. No one could see for themselves how much more powerful these metahumans were.

In the adult world, only one thing was of importance – benefits.

But teenagers were more willing to accept new ideas and thus adapted very quickly.

But seeing that the government was making a big deal out of this, could it be that they were planning to publicize it?

Lu Shu looked through the forums and noticed that the Daoyuan class was not only set up in Luo Cheng but in some other places as well. There were even new schools being built and named the Daoyuan school which housed all these ‘unique students’ in one place.

Some places adopted the same changes as Luo Cheng, having all the ‘unique students’ gathered in an existing school.

Some places even had extreme changes where the existing students were transferred out to start a Daoyuan class.

Some students who were not chosen for the Daoyuan class were b*tching and whining online but it must be exaggerated. In real life, it could not have been as bad as they described.

Some college students even received a notice to return to school earlier, probably for the physical examination.

But these college students were not complaining about it. In fact, they were excited.

Lu Shu was thinking that the officials must have gotten hold of some kind of technique to awaken metahumans right? If not, what was the point in gathering all these people together and what were they planning to teach in the Daoyuan class.

The golden foundation website had stated clearly that there were two kinds of metahumans- natural and trained metahumans.

The former would awaken out of the blue and they would be clueless about what was going on and use their powers impulsively.

The latter would go through a series of objective plannings and training to become metahumans.

Which of the two would be stronger was hard to say. Whether strength type metahumans would amount to anything, who could predict that at this point in time?

Speaking of which, what exactly was the golden foundation website? Lu Shu had initially thought that it was created by the government but looking at the forums, it was an international forum available to many countries in the world. The forum here was in Chinese but it was available in English, Russian and other languages too. No matter how one looked at it, it did not look like a government-owned website.

If this was a government-created website, the officials would definitely have taken it down. Could it be the United Nations?

But it was unheard of for the UN to be in control of such a website. This website was out of control.

The overall picture was something Lu Shu, just a high school student, could not figure out by himself. But he knew what he had to do. The secrets about his body were something he had to keep hidden from everyone else besides Lu Xiaoyu.

Lu Shu’s favorite hobby now was to stare at his records, seeing the constant updates of more distress points being contributed by his classmates.

His deskie Ye Lingling had tried to talk to him many times but stopped midway as Lu Shu was act indifferent about it while sitting there, watching his balance skyrocket.

Looking back at the times he used to annoy people on ‘message in a bottle’, the profits from that was so much less.

Lu Shu felt that just by being irritating in this class was already earning him so much distress points.

And lighting up subsequent stars were going to need much more celestial fruits.

His plan was to secure this income from these students, then find another way to earn more points.

His normal classes were still going to be in this class and only at night was he required to attend the Daoyuan class.

Lu Shu suddenly looked at Ye Lingling cheerfully. Ye Lingling had always thought that Lu Shu always had an evil intent behind his smile as if he was going to do something bad!

Teenagers at this age were still quite sensitive and not very forgiving.

So the three other students who were selected for the Daoyuan class were surrounded by the rest while Lu Shu was left alone. He was already planning to head home and thinking about how to best use the 15k distress points he had earned.

“Next time you guys will become metahumans, please share anything interesting from the Daoyuan class with us,” someone jokingly said, “if they teach you methods to awaken, please teach us too! Maybe some of us will be able to awaken and our class’s dominance in the Daoyuan class will increase.”

“Sure,” the class representative Liu Li replied.

He did not consider the chance that the contents in Daoyuan class were exclusive. Although the officials had started to openly meddle with such affairs, it was still unknown what kind of light the media was going to shine on such matters.

If the Daoyuan class was really going to impart techniques to awaken, that should be top secret and to date, no one had even guessed or found out what such a technique could be.

As such, Lu Shu felt that Liu Li’s promise here was a rash one.

But this did not concern him as he looked at the notes on his table- Maths, Mother tongue, English, History, Geography, Politics…..

All these were going to become history soon. The students around were no longer discussing how to do well on each topic but were more focused on awakening.

The world had started to change.
