Chapter 247: Since They Were Already There...
Zi Yang Combat College.
The vice-principal’s expression stiffened.
Seriously...
He had detected Lu Ming’s aura on the card with the pig...
It was obviously...
How could he be wrong?
To this...
Lu Ming only smiled faintly.
Other than the Original Card, he could pull out a pile of daggers, Sword Embryos, livers... Some of those objects had turned pink while some still retained their original color.
“Maybe I was wrong.”
The vice-principal was silent for a long time. “Since this is the case, this exchange will come to a close.”
“Oh?”
There was a shadow of a smile on Lu Ming’s face.
“Humph!”
The vice-principal sneered. “Wu Geng adhered to the rules. You have no right to stir up trouble.”
“I know.”
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
“However... I represented the college from the crossroads in this exchange but what are the results? A young lady defeated the entire college...
“But I have yet to participate!
“I can’t waste my trip.
“After all... I am already here...”
Lu Ming sighed. “In fact, I was going to challenge the students from your college. But I didn’t expect that they would be so weak. It’s so disappointing...
“Since this is the case... I will challenge the school leaders. For example...”
Lu Ming swept his gaze over the vice-principal. “You!”
Wow—
There was a loud gasp from the crowd.
Challenge the vice-principal?!
That was looking down on their school!
Whoosh!
The students from Zi Yang College felt their blood boil. The onlookers were excited as they madly sent messages to their friends notifying them of the big news.
Crap!
A student wanted to challenge the vice-principal. It was the first time ever!
But...
The vice-principal ignored them.
“I refuse,” the vice-principal said coldly.
Although he did not care for Lu Ming, there was no need to fight against a student. A principal challenging a student? It would be embarrassing even if he won!
They had been through lots of humiliation today!
Everything should come to an end.
Hence...
He turned to leave.
He must be crazy to have a one-to-one fight with Lu Ming!
However...
At this time, Lu Ming suddenly spoke up. “I wonder whether the vice-principal has read the article about the death of the cultivator with humble origins?”
Shush.
The vice-principal halted in his tracks.
The death of the cultivator with humble origins...
He knew about the article!
And he knew about Lu Ming!
However, now that Lu Ming’s card had been completely deciphered and the so-called shifting of vocation cores had also been targeted, what did Lu Ming mean by bringing this up now?
Threatening him?
It was ridiculous!
He was not an Energy Warrior!
As a Summoner, he was the least afraid of such things!
“I have read it, so?”
The vice-principal sounded indifferent.
“That’s good.”
Lu Ming smiled and said. “The article was written by the president of the Card Creators Association. It was an excellent article. You are free to leave, later I will tell him to write an article titled, ‘The Death of Zi Yang College’...”
The vice-principal’s expression suddenly stiffened.
The death of Zi Yang College...
His heart sank at the thought of the explosive nature of the previous article. If the damn president were to write the article, Zi Yang College would be doomed!
God knew how popular the article about the death of the cultivator with humble origins was!
Hence...
He stopped in his tracks and he came back.
“If you challenge me, you will suffer a crushing defeat.”
The vice-principal’s expression was cold.
“It’s okay.”
Lu Ming smiled faintly. “I still have to try.”
“Very good.”
The vice-principal gave him a deep stare. “Then let’s do it.”
Bang!
The vice-principal stood still, a terrifying aura exploded.
Five-star!
A standard five-star!
Furthermore...
The aura seemed to have reached five-star intermediate!
Wow—
Everyone was suddenly excited.
“They are serious about fighting!”
“Haha, this is the first time that I see a student challenging a vice-principal! Lu Ming is indeed daring...”
“Exactly.”
“I wonder whether Lu Ming has any chance.”
“Let’s not care if he has a chance or not. Let’s watch the fun.”
Everyone was talking about it.
Every student from the Zi Yang College looked ghastly pale. Their vice-principal had made his move and he was forced by Lu Ming to do that...
That was too much!
It was nothing to boast of if they won this match.
Did they not find it shameful enough!?
“What if we lose?” a student asked feebly.
Shush!
All the students and teachers looked at him coldly.
Lose?
How could that be possible?
This was their vice-principal!
This was not a match to see who had the looks. Why would they lose?!
...
“No!
It doesn’t work like this!”
One teacher thought about it and walked up to Lu Ming. “You are not qualified to challenge our vice-principal. If you want to challenge him, you have to defeat me first...”
Crash!
A black shadow flashed.
The teacher was sent flying.
...
Shush!
There was total silence at the entrance.
The students’ faces turned red. It was so humiliating! Why did he join in the fun?! Lu Ming was Xiaobai’s master!
Xiaobai was already capable of defeating a four-star!
During the competition, Lu Ming had even beaten a five-star!
He was a four-star peak teacher, why did he join the fight?
Hence...
The teachers turned silent.
...
“It’s fine. I can do it.”
The vice-principal swept his gaze over them.
He thought about it.
How could he make the battle look better for the college?
Instant defeat!
Killing his opponent instantly was the only way!
The perfect situation would be if Lu Ming tried to challenge him and was instantly killed by his thunderbolt attack. If so, when people brought up this battle, all that they would be reminded of would be Lu Ming’s arrogance!
Well...
That would do.
Since Lu Ming dared to challenge a five-star, he must possess combat skills beyond that level...
It was a pity. He was not simply an ordinary five-star!
He was an intermediate five-star!
He was also the vice-principal!
Given his position, he had access to a lot of resources. Therefore, his combat effectiveness was far stronger than general five-star cultivators!
Since that was the case...
He should let Lu Ming have a taste of what a real five-star was!!!
Bang!
The aura around the vice-principal surged.
...
“It’s coming!”
Lu Ming squinted.
After going through numerous temperings, his Original Card had reached four-star peak. His fitness level and mental strength were at a similar level. Therefore, his real combat effectiveness... should be comparable to a five-star!
And the vice-principal was a five-star intermediate. It was just as nice!
Seriously...
Perhaps...
He could hone his abilities!
Shush!
Lu Ming stood up.
A faint three-star peak aura dissipated.
Well...
There was a huge gap between their energy levels. One could not really detect Lu Ming’s aura as the vice-principal’s aura was too powerful. But even so, Lu Ming’s aura never disappeared.
It seemed as if it was swaying in the rain, faintly discernible.
...
Bang!
As the vice-principal’s aura condensed, it became more and more terrifying.
Just when Lu Ming thought that he was going to use his killing move, the vice-principal roared and a stream of light shot to the sky, thereafter...
The sky tore open.
A strange and mysterious crack appeared in the sky.
Clang!
Clang!
Loud sounds could be heard.
A terrifying living creature seemed to be hitting the crack.
Buzz—
There was a turbulence created by his aura.
A five-star peak!
This...
This was a five-star peak beast!?
It was true.
A five-star peak!
Lu Ming had combat skills beyond his level but this was also true for the vice-principal! Even if he could only make a small increase from intermediate five-star to five-star peak!
“The beast summoned by the vice-principal is so powerful!”
Everyone gasped.
A Summoner at four-stars and above could condense a summoned space and nurture a summoned beast that belonged to him alone. But he could only nurture one beast!
Therefore...
Four-star was the starting point for many Summoners!
Instead of summoning through the use of powers, they would begin with a search for the young of a powerful summoned beast and nurture it to become their exclusive summoned beast!
Right now...
This was the summoned beast nurtured by the vice-principal!
But...
Since the summoned space was condensed by the Summoner, the Summoner would use his energy to lead the summoned beast out of the summoned space...
Therefore, if the summoned beast was too powerful, it might be difficult to lead them out!
They would need some time...
For example, the five-star peak beast was too powerful!
Therefore... it was impossible for the vice-principal to summon it by leading it out of the portal. He could only give it some guidance and the summoned beast had to tear the barrier apart to come out!
Clang!
Clang!
The summoned beast tore apart the portal.
There were cracks in both the summoned space and reality. The terrifying summoned beast was about to appear.
...
Right then...
Everyone held their breaths.
They looked at the sky, waiting for the summoned beast to appear!
Lu Ming was doomed to lose.
Everyone knew what the outcome would be.
After all...
This was a five-star beast!
The beast was very powerful and it was much stronger than ordinary people. A five-star peak had basically canceled out Lu Ming’s ability to combat beyond his level. There was no way he could win!
Right now, they would see how Lu Ming would be defeated.
Clang!
Clang!
The void shook.
The aura of the beast was increasing. It was frightening.
...
At this very moment...
Lu Ming looked on from a distance quietly.
Oh.
A five-star peak.
Oh.
A Summoner.
He merely sensed the vice-principal’s aura, but he had never imagined that he would be a five-star Summoner! However, the summoning method was...
Well...
He looked at the crack in the portal.
He threw a spear toward it instinctively.
Well... it was pink!
This was the vocation core that he had snatched from a five-star Spearman. He threw it toward the summoned crack.
Buzz—
The pink spear vibrated.
Once it left Lu Ming’s control, it would be on the brink of self-destruction and as time passed, the situation worsened and it would self-destruct anytime!
Hence...
There was a shocking scene in the sky.
The beast had yet to appear in the crack. However, a pink spear that could vibrate by itself poked through the crack that had yet to open up...
Poof!
There was a faint sound.
Half of the spear had pierced through the crack!
“Oh no!”
The vice-principal sensed that something was amiss.
Hence...
He gritted his teeth to seal the summoned space by force!
Shush!
Lights and shadows circled the crack.
“Space, solidify!” The vice-principal roared.
He solidified the crack such that it was as hard as glass. This was the auxiliary ability of a Summoner, to further solidify the void that was already very hard. However, it would become very brittle.
In that case...
The beast inside could come out easily... while the damn pink spear was caught in the crack.
But... at this moment.
Faint energy dissipated around the pink spear. It began to vibrate and while it shook it flew into the crack, squeezing itself into it by force...
Everyone freaked out. How was that possible?!
The vice-principal was dazed as well.
Seriously...
This was not the first time that people interrupted the summoning process. All of them were far stronger than him. What they did was in fact try to destroy the summoned space by force...
But the Summoner could adjust anytime and hence it was not easily destroyed!
After all... one mistake and one would end up helping the other party to summon the beast!
However, he had never seen people like Lu Ming who stuffed something inside by force...
What was the world of the summoned beast like?
What was inside it?
Many people had no idea.
However, without a doubt, after such a thing was stuffed into it...
Bang!
There was a deafening sound.
It seemed that something terrible had exploded.
There was a loud wail, then, total silence. The crack in the void suddenly disappeared.
Pfft!
The vice-principal spat a mouthful of blood.
...
Shush!
There was total silence.
Everyone widened their eyes, feeling incredulous.
That was it?
What the hell was this?
They never knew that a Summoner could be interrupted in this manner.
It was too incredible!
Also...
That crack...
It should have been difficult to crack open. After all, the beast was a five-star peak and it needed time to come out. However, Lu Ming’s pink spear just poked straight in...
It was very powerful!
Everyone was astounded.
...
“What was that?”
Xiaoyan and Li Haoran were confused.
The pink spear...
They had no idea that the Sword Card Master had such abilities.
“Senior sister?” Xiaoyan asked cautiously.
Well...
Xiaobai’s face was flushed. “This is a new ability that your master and I developed...”
Well...
In fact, she had not seen it before.
However, she had to act like a senior sister now!
She must not embarrass herself!
“O-oh. Oh.”
Xiaoyan and Li Haoran understood what was going on.
It was no wonder it was so powerful!
It seemed that this was a new ability that master and senior sister had developed together...
Well...
It was very powerful!
...
At this very moment...
The vice-principal wiped the blood by the side of his mouth.
The summoned beast...
He tried to sense it but panicked when he felt no response!
Damn it!
What is going on inside?
He could feel that the summoned space had become fragmented. It seemed to be heavily damaged, but that was still okay. It was not scattered and smashed. If not, it would be troublesome...
Buzz—
Buzz—
He kept summoning it, but there was no response.
After a long time...
There was finally a faint response.
The summoned beast was very furious!
It was true!
While it was attacking the barrier and had created an opening in the barrier, about to go out, a pink spear landed in its mouth...
Afterward...
It exploded!!!!!
It exploded!
Although its aura did not seem powerful, it could not stop it from exploding in its mouth!
No one could stop it!
Therefore, it no longer had the ability to go out now...
It had to recuperate...
“Rest well,” the vice-principal thought.
The vice-principal was full of rage.
He was such a bully!
He had never seen anyone who fought in such a manner!
He had never felt so sullen before. The summoned beast had yet to come out and was so angered that it gave up on coming out... What the hell was this combat?!
And...
What the hell was that pink spear?!
He had been cultivating for more than ten years but he had never seen a pink spear that could vibrate...
What was it?!
Oh.
Right.
His wife was a Ph.D. in theoretical science. She should know what was going on.
Hence...
He sent a message asking his wife.
Very soon...
She replied to his message immediately. “You devil, don’t rummage through other people’s things (〃’▽’〃)”
The vice-principal was dumbstruck.
W-what was the meaning of this?!
...
