Chapter 471 Talking Gibberis.h.!.+
Tian Du City.
Sword Card Master a.s.sociation.
Lu Ming listened to the students' complaints and could not come to his senses.
d.a.m.n!
Was that true?
He looked at the leaders of the inspection team, they actually nodded smugly. Lu Ming who initially maintained calm felt slightly angry.
d.a.m.n!
This was bullying!
It was not easy for the students to go to school, yet they were up to these tricks!
“Comrade Lu Ming.”
The leader of the inspection team patted his big belly. “Look, we know that it is difficult for you, but we are doing a job as well.
“This is how all the places are checked.
“It is legal and we complied with the regulations.
“If you don't believe this, you can ask the netizens.
“Beating people…
“Is not right,”
the leader said calmly.
“Yes.”
Lu Ming sighed.
“What should we do then?”
The leader calmed down.
“Look.
“Our comrades have been beaten to this state.”
He pointed to the middle-aged man next to him.
He was talking gibberish and his words could not make sense!!!
The middle-aged man's face swelled to the extent that one could not make out what he was saying.
Lu Ming turned sullen.
This matter was tricky.
“Come here, all of you!”
Lu Ming gave the students an angry glare.
“Yes.”
Li Haoran and the students gathered around him.
“Getting into a fight?
“You sure are capable!”
Lu Ming sneered.
“I'm sorry.”
Li Haoran lowered his head. “I didn't keep their emotions in check.
“How can you be aware of this?”
Lu Ming glared. “Are you stupid? Don't you have any brains? How can you beat someone like that? Did you consider the situation of the Sword Card Master a.s.sociation?”
That was right.
The inspection team smiled faintly.
Look, this was a qualified president!
“I'm sorry.”
Li Haoran felt very ashamed.
“What is the use of saying sorry?!”
Lu Ming said unhappily. “In the future, use your brains! If you beat someone, you must not do upfront! Why can't you wait until they leave the place and beat them in a hidden alley?!”
Ah?
Li Haoran looked up bewildered.
Hidden…
Alley?
Right then.
The leader of the inspection team felt that it was not right. “Lu…”
“Shut up!”
Lu Ming glared at him. “I am lecturing my disciples. What has it to do with you?”
Upon finis.h.i.+ng his words…
He looked toward the students again. “All of you are fools. If you have to argue with them upfront, you should put them in a sack, and beat them up. In that case, no one will find out!”
Eh?
The students' eyes lit up.
The leader of the inspection team was mad. d.a.m.n! What kind of person was he?!
“Lu Ming…
“You…”
The leader was furious.
“Don't worry.
“I said I would handle it.”
Lu Ming said impatiently before he looked toward Li Haoran. “Did anyone see them enter when they arrived?”
“Not many.”
Li Haoran said honestly. “When the inspection team was here, it was during mealtime, and there were not many people.”
“Oh…”
Lu Ming said thoughtfully. “Since no one sees them, if we silence them…
“I have an idea!”
He slapped his thighs and turned around in excitement. “Leaders, come over here, let me send you off.”
The leader of the inspection team was mad.
Leave?!
Who the h.e.l.l dared to leave with him?!
“Don't be shy.
“I have a good relations.h.i.+p with the head of the United Front Work Department and the dean of The First Academy. I have just made a donation to fund the reconstruction of the testing area. I am considered a hero of Tian Du City.
“I am such a kind-hearted person… you must believe me!
“You shouldn't doubt me, should you?
“Don't worry.
“I'll send all of you home safely.”
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
The inspection team's legs felt wobbly.
It was at this time that they suddenly remembered that Lu Ming, who was right in front of them might be young, but he was very impressive.
Kind?
Yes.
His reputation seemed to be this!
Therefore…
That was to say, even if Lu Ming killed them, no one would believe it!
Hence…
They gave in right away.
Their original intention was to get some benefits. But at the thought of Lu Ming's [quasi seven-star] t.i.tle, they were frightened.
“I'm sorry.”
The leader of the inspection team pa.s.sed the inspection test of the college at the crossroad without any hesitation, and he left with the middle-aged man who still could not speak properly.
Shus.h.!.+
The leaders left right away.
“Well…”
“It was settled.”
Lu Ming felt pleased.
“Look.
“The comrades at the inspection team were very negotiable.”
Lu Ming was gratified and he turned to glare at Li Haoran. “Why would you beat them for nothing? Look, you have scared them away.”
Li Haoran was speechless.
Master.
They were frightened into leaving by you!
Anyway.
The matter with the inspection team ended happily. The college at the crossroad had pa.s.sed the a.s.sessment and the students could return to lessons as per normal.
Hence…
Lu Ming went back to his cultivation.
At his present state, the daily practice was cultivation!
He had to stabilize his realm!
He had to break through to six-star!
Of course.
There was still one piece of interesting news.
The Swordsman a.s.sociation had been making good progress, and the conservatives had been totally wiped out, they had no means to fight back! The Swordsman a.s.sociation had returned to their high efficiency state of operations.
All the basic courses could be learned through the Internet!
“Good job.”
Lu Ming praised Meng s.h.i.+san.
“Of course.”
Meng s.h.i.+san felt proud of himself.
Right now, the Swordsman was no longer a model of stubbornness, they became anchors who conducted lessons online, putting themselves on the front, interacting with people.
Yes.
In terms of teaching…
They were at the world's forefront!
“Amazing!”
Lu Ming exclaimed. “However… did the a.s.sociation just readily agree? If everyone is an anchor, it would affect cultivation.”
Meng s.h.i.+san was silent for a long while.
After a long time…
He sighed. “Because of a certain someone, everyone had loans to pay… If they don't do live streaming… what else could they do?”
→_→
Lu Ming coughed.
Oh.
He had forgotten about that. Cough.
Hence…
Lu Ming smiled dryly, hurrying to change the topic. “Haha, Old Meng, although the two factions have been unified, you must still stabilize them. I heard that individual conservatives put on masks while smas.h.i.+ng things…”
“This is nothing.”
Meng s.h.i.+san sighed. “Many of them just watched the fun. They are only creating trouble for themselves. They have more impact on pigs than us… The price of pork these days…
“Sigh, Lu Ming.
“Do you know of any scientific methods for the Swordsmen to rear pigs?”
Meng s.h.i.+san sought help from him.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Scientific method of raising pigs?!
d.a.m.n! He had no idea!
The two of them chatted for a long while.
Lu Ming hung up the phone and was between laughter and tears. Was the Swordsman a.s.sociation in such a dire situation… However, there was no other choice. He was the victim as well!
He gave all his money as compensation!
What else could he do?
Right then, Li Haoran walked in.
“Master.”
Li Haoran leaned in secretly.
“What's the matter?”
Lu Ming was puzzled.
Li Haoran came in sneakily, looked around, making sure there was no one before he closed the door and ran to stand next to Lu Ming.
Lu Ming felt ridiculous.
This child…
Did he turn foolish?
“Master.”
Li Haoran whispered. “Miss Tian asked me to seek help from you.”
“Seek help?”
Lu Ming's heart skipped a beat.
Didn't the lady go into her cultivation retreat?!
Did something happen?!
“What has happened?”
Lu Ming stood up.
“Uh—”
Li Haoran paused. “Nothing happened, it is just that Miss Tian is afraid…”
“Make yourself clear,”
Lu Ming said unhappily.
When did he learn to falter in his speech? He was not those ladies in the night clubs, there was no need to speak using such a difficult technique.
“Well…”
Li Haoran sighed, saying in a low voice. “Miss Tian has been brought away by Senior Sister.”
Lu Ming's expression froze.
Xiaobai?!
Wait a minute.
Why would Xiaobai bring her away?!
Xiao-Xiaojian suddenly remembered. “Perhaps it is to study headlamps? Seeing that food and diet are not useful, Miss Xiaobai decides to perform an operation?!”
“Get lost!”
Lu Ming turned sullen, shoving the card into the card bag.
d.a.m.n it.
What was it thinking about?!
Was Xiaobai that kind of person?!
However…
After he thought about it, Xiaobai had been eating coconut and exercising in order to grow and develop… Since it had not been effective, it was reasonable that she took Miss Tian away…
No.
Xiaobai would not do this!
Xiaobai liked him! She should have wanted to become someone that he liked! He was not the kind of superficial man who only focused on outer appearance!
It was not!
Xiao-Xiaojian widened its eyes.
d.a.m.n!
It had been a long time since it saw someone who was so shameless…
Cough, cough.
Lu Ming coughed. “Haoran, do you know the reason?”
“I don't know.”
Li Haoran was helpless.
He would not be worried if he knew that reason.
Miss Tian only told him to look for him right away… However, she did not say anything else. But he had indeed heard some rumors in the a.s.sociation these few days…
“Master.”
Li Haoran said in a low voice. “Someone saw Miss Tian coming out from your place…
“So…
“I am thinking that perhaps Senior Sister Xiaobai heard something…”
Lu Ming turned sullen.
These people were very good at spreading rumors!
However…
If Xiaobai misunderstood…
“Let's go!”
Lu Ming stood up in a hurry. “Where are they?”
“The lab!”
Li Haoran was certain.
Ss——
Xiao-Xiaojian trembled.
d.a.m.n!
That place was traumatic to him!
“We're done for!
“The lady will definitely be torn down into parts.”
Xiao-Xiaojian mourned for her.
She landed on Miss Xiaobai's hands… Humph.
Very soon…
Lu Ming hurried to the lab.
Over there.
Xiaobai was was.h.i.+ng her hands.
Miss Tian was lying on the experimental bed, her body covered with a layer of white cloth…
Ss——
Xiao-Xiaojian gasped a breath of energy.
“We are too late!
“She is done for!
“Perhaps the headlamps can be removed! Xiaobai must have done the transplant!”
Xiao-Xiaojian was frightened.
“Get lost!”
Lu Ming rolled his eyes.
“Xiaobai.”
Lu Ming walked over.
“Master~”
Xiaobai said happily. “Why are all of you here?”
“Uh, over there…”
Lu Ming pointed to the operating table.
Over there.
Miss Tian opened her eyes.
“Ah~President~!
“S-orry.”
Miss Tian got up from the bed, feeling embarra.s.sed. “I-I am fine. I have caused trouble for you.”
“Are you alright?”
Lu Ming was puzzled.
“Okay.”
Miss Tian lowered her head, feeling embarra.s.sed. “Senior Sister Xiaobai said that the research is in a critical stage and she needs my cooperation.”
“Oh. It's great that everything is alright!”
Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief. He had a big shock.
Hence…
He stroked Xiaobai's head. “How's the investigation going?”
“It's very good!”
Xiaobai was very serious. “The related studies on the spirit body have been completed. The body, Original Card, and the spirit body are similar to a certain extent.”
“I feel that…
“The research will be successful very soon.”
Xiaobai showed Lu Ming the recent scientific research data.
There were more than hundreds of experiments!
There would be lots of data every time.
From the cooperation of the love affinity department, to the study of the spirit bodies, as well as the current study of the characteristics of card spirits, Xiaobai had been working very hard on research these days.
“Well…”
Lu Ming scanned through the data.
Well…
He could not understand even a single formula.
→_→
He was after all an undergraduate in his previous life! Now…
Forget it.
He should not compare himself to Xiaobai!
Cough.
He maintained a smile and praised her. “Good, good, you have done a good job.”
“Alright.”
Xiaobai rubbed her feet happily.
“Be good.
“Do not be too obsessed in experiments, you must strike a balance between working and resting.”
Lu Ming told her.
“Okay.”
Xiaobai replied obediently.
Hence…
Lu Ming then left.
Xiaobai's experiment…
She had been doing the experiments for a long time. Basically, it was Xiaobai who achieved major breakthroughs with the spirit body. But for now, the experiments on the spirit body seemed to have reached its extreme.
This was why it had been quite a while since Xiaobai had made any findings.
However…
As long as she was happy, Lu Ming was fine with her working on the experiments.
Xiaobai could play around with the spirit body department. However, he did not expect that Xiaobai only took a day to complete the study!
The next day.
The systemic report of the Sword Card Master a.s.sociation.
The Sword Card Master a.s.sociation's core ability of the [manifestation of spirit body] techniques had been released. From now on, the characteristics of the card spirit could be materialized through the Original Card!
—Jiang Yuebai.
Swoos.h.!.+
The entire Sword Card Master a.s.sociation was shocked!
What was the characteristic of a card spirit?
The body of the spirit body.
Fox spirit, rabbit spirit, balm spirit, toilet bowl spirit…
Wait a minute.
All of them were spirit bodies!
However…
Although the Original Card of the Sword Card Master a.s.sociation made use of the spirit bodies, in essence, when in combat, the spirit bodies only played the role of AI[1]!
Afterward…
There was absolutely nothing!
As for what it really was?
n.o.body cared!
The Original Card was like having another AI. That was all.
Although it could have all sorts of auxiliary functions, in essence, it was only to increase abilities and thoughts… other factors did not matter!
This was why many spirit bodies were born to be useless!
No one would choose to have them!
And now…
Xiaobai did many experiments and studies, deriving large amounts of data from them. She compared countless Original Cards and spirit bodies and finally developed the techniques to really manifest a card spirit!
A card spirit could be manifested through the Original Card!
Not only that.
The Original Card could have part of the spirit body's characteristic!
For example…
A fox spirit could charm and be a bodyguard. Through the technique, the original charm could be displayed in the Original Card!
It could be enhanced in combat!
Charms +10%
Hardness +10%!
It was to the extent that…
They could have more functions!
At this very moment…
With the release of this news, the entire a.s.sociation had a big shock. Everyone felt dazed and could not come to their senses for a long time!
The manifestation of a spirit body!
It did not require any external effort!
One only needed to master the technique to increase one's combat abilities!
This technique…
“Senior Sister Xiaobai is amazing!!!”
Loud shouts could be heard across the skies.
All the Sword Card Masters were thrilled.
The first generation disciples were no exception. They widened their eyes in shock, and purchased the manifestation technique of the spirit body that Xiaobai released right away!
Buzz—
The spirit body instantly materialized.
They could clearly see their spirit bodies that had nothing but a consciousness appearing on the Original Card. It was so realistic!
The materialized Original Card seemed to be more robust than before!
Right then…
Other than the Sword Card Masters… the entire spirit body department were ecstatic as well!
In the past, they could only stay in the Original Cards. But now, they could be materialized through the Original Card, and they could even use their own power!
How could they not be excited?!
Hence…
That day…
Lights surged in the Sword Card Master a.s.sociation.
All the card spirits of the Sword Card Masters materialized through this technique!
Their combat abilities improved greatly!
At this very moment…
While the entire a.s.sociation was celebrating, Lu Ming was just as thrilled. “This…”
Card spirit, Original Card, body…
Xiaobai's spirit body department had already reached this stage of development!
Genius…
She was indeed a genius!
Hence…
He had purchased this technique as well. Xiaobai's marked price was the lowest contribution price for the technical standards. It was considered very cheap.
Well…
Lu Ming quickly mastered it.
“What will your body be?”
Lu Ming looked toward Xiao-Xiaojian.
“What else could it be?”
Xiao-Xiaojian pursed its lips. “Sky Water Sword.”
“You're right.”
Lu Ming came to his senses.
Although the ability was very powerful, to Xiao-Xiaojian who could already materialize, it was not a big deal. They were more concerned about…
Improvement!
If they could improve a small part of Sky Water Sword's abilities…
Their combat abilities would definitely increase greatly!
Hence…
He and Xiao-Xiaojian cast it together, trying to materialize it.
Buzz—
Lights and shadows condensed.
A touch of shadow emerged on top of the Original Card. Lu Ming and Xiao-Xiaojian took a glance and were stunned.
Over there.
The mark of the Sky Water Sword had disappeared.
Over there was a rusty metal rod… Of course if one looked closely, one would discover that there was a rock beneath the rod…
Oh.
Fulcrum.
Lu Ming gained some understanding.
Therefore, in ancient times, Xiao-Xiaojian… its body was a… bar spirit as well?!
