After walking out of the staffroom, Lu Shu stealthily approached the classroom. Seeing the students in the classroom engaging in their own activities during their required courses, Lu Shu stood outside and peered through the window. He secretly looked inside, wanting to see where Lu Xiaoyu sat.
Before he had even found Lu Xiaoyu, she had appeared behind him. She did not care whether Lu Shu was trying to be low-key. She shouted, “Lu Shu, you’re finally here for lessons!”
“...”
The students in the classroom, many who did not know the details of the incident, were immediately shocked. Lu Shu? Which Lu Shu?
Everyone’s eyes fell on Lu Shu’s face. Lu Shu awkwardly but politely laughed. “Long time no see, everyone.”
“From Li Yuqing’s distress, +666!”
“From Ye Lingling’s distress, +666!”
“From...”
Lu Shu sighed with emotion. His classmates were still so nice. They were so polite when they greeted him.
Lu Shu had not even thought of what to say before Lu Xiaoyu turned her head to face the entire class. She coldly said, “How could I just ignore what happened before! From now on, whoever badmouths Lu Shu behind his back...”
Lu Xiaoyu even lowered her head and took out a small card from her pocket, which reminded her of what to say. “Right. I, Lu Xiaoyu, will not let it pass!”
“From Li Yuqing’s distress, +666!”
“From Ye Lingling’s distress, +666!”
“From...”
Lu Xiaoyu had waited all day for this. After letting it out of her chest, she felt that she had a commanding presence. She had fulfilled her long-cherished wish! As expected, there was some use to studying!
Lu Shu was dumbfounded. Lu Xiaoyu, did you awaken some amazing attribute? What have you been doing all this time in class since you skipped grades!
He looked around at the students surrounding him. He realized that the expression on their faces was somewhat odd. However, the distress points that the Collection of Gods had provided him earlier were too closely compacted. Thus, he did not realize whether there were distress points coming from his classmates.
Lu Xiaoyu pulled Lu Shu to sit beside her. A fat boy simply carried his bag and went to the back row. This feeling was as if he had been covered by the school tyrant. For some reason, Lu Shu suddenly did not want to go to school even more than before...
But he suddenly thought of something. Didn’t Xiaoyu have to go for the training next week too? Although he hated to see Lu Xiaoyu suffer, but he suddenly rejoiced slightly.
At least his school life would be a bit more normal!
However, at this moment, Lu Shu suddenly felt as if he was looking at his own background. There was an additional page in the original content page. The name on the additional page was “Lu Xiaoyu”. Inside was a record of distress points he had obtained through Lu Xiaoyu. There was even a total number at the bottom of the page. 4021 distress points.
Lu Shu was somewhat uncertain. Why were there two record pages? It felt as if he had only used the distress points Lu Xiaoyu had earned. The points seemed to be calculated twice and both pages saw an increase at the same time.
Lu Shu sensed that something was not right. He opened up the market to take a look. There was another product after the Celestial Fruit, “Abyss Fruit”.
Both the Celestial Fruit and the Abyss Fruit cost 1000 points each. Lu Shu bought one fruit and realized that his distress points did not decrease. Instead, the distress points from the additional page had decreased by 1000!
Hiss! Lu Shu gasped in astonishment. This meant that it could only be bought by the distress points generated by Lu Xiaoyu. Then... the Abyss fruit was also for Lu Xiaoyu?
Earlier, Lu Shu had wanted to give the Celestial Fruit to Lu Xiaoyu for her to eat, but he could not do so. Instead, the distress points she had generated made him seem as if he had been expelled from the Party and discharged from public office. The distress points increased steadily.
Now, he was able to collect the distress points produced by Lu Xiaoyu. At the same time, she could exchange them for fruits that could increase her strength. This gave Lu Xiaoyu the independence to regenerate ways to increase her strength...
Whether it was as he had predicted would have to wait until they went back and tried it out at night.
Lu Shu suddenly saw Liu Li enter the class. He thought about how last night, he had increased the Spirit Qi in Liu Li’s training residence. He seemed to resolutely and mysteriously hint to Liu Li. “What’s up? Have good things happened to you recently?”
Liu Li immediately felt uncomfortable all over. Was Lu Shu here to gloat over his misfortune? How did he know what had happened? His expression darkened. He asked, “Was it you who did it?”
When Lu Shu heard Liu Li’s question, he certainly could not admit the truth with his spirit of serving the people wholeheartedly and not leaving his name behind after a good deed. “Ha ha ha, how could it be me? It wasn’t me, it wasn’t me.”
Lu Shu returned to his seat after he had finished speaking. Liu Li stood at the classroom door, holding back his words. He was certain that his villa had been destroyed by Lu Shu, although he did not know how Lu Shu did it!
“From Liu Li’s distress, +999!”
Seeing the flow of distress points, Lu Shu thought. Was it so difficult to be a nice person nowadays? Did you think it was easy to take care of a hero’s family members? He also did not know when he could change Liu Li’s impression of him.
“Hm? Where’s Jiang Shuyi?” Lu Shu patted the classmate in front of him and asked.
The classmate in front of him gingerly turned around. “Ever since the Practitioners admission test, Jiang Shuyi has not come to school...”
“Oh.” Jiang Shuyi had received a military medal for going to Qinghai. So Jiang Shuyi not coming to school did not come as a surprise to Lu Shu. Counting back in time, Jiang Shuyi had probably advanced to Class C.
Besides, Cao Qingci’s speed of training was probably much faster. When they had went for training, they were already Class C’s. Now, they had probably embarked on the path to consolidate their Class C status.
Xi Fei’s speed of training seemed slow in comparison. But thinking about it, out of the entire population of over one billion people, there were only 82 of such Class A aptitude geniuses like Cao Qingci. It was normal for their speed of training to be much faster than that of others.
But after advancing to Class C, it was not easy to ascend to Class B. According to the old priest Chen Baili, one’s aptitude and meridian 1 determined the speed of training, while class determined the degree. This was the reason why the old priest had regarded Lu Xiaoyu as important. Since her awakening was early and her class was high, the level she would be able to reach in the future was also high.
Take for example people like Cao Qingci, Cheng Qiuqiao etc. who had Class A aptitude. If they only had aptitude but not class, they would most likely stay at Class B for the rest of their lives.
According to the old priest, some Class A aptitude geniuses would rise in class after suffering heavy defeats. Their greatest advantage was simply their ability to reach the peak earlier than others. Of course, Class A aptitude geniuses typically had high class, with only a few exceptions.
But there would be a few students with poor aptitude and very good class. They welcomed their own light after enduring tough training. Perhaps the peak that others found hard to break through was a piece of cake to them.
