Chapter 35: The First Day of School
Chapter 35: The First Day of School
On the first day of school, Lu Wu, accompanied by Duddu, headed to class with a pair of eyes that resembled the national treasure's.
Speaking of these national treasure eyes, he had stayed awake all night, frantically researching online after waking up the previous night.
He searched for topics like 'Summoned Beast Murder Incident' and 'My Summoned Beast is Acting Strange' and 'Will Summoned Beasts Always Remain Loyal to Their Masters?'
The initial search results were quite normal, but the last one led to a bizarre association with 'How to Make Your Summoned Beast Do Embarrassing Things' and 'Things I Must Confess About My Human-shaped Summoned Beast.'
These irrelevant results significantly hindered Lu Wu's efficiency, wasting his time. The reason for his national treasure-like eyes was the excessive time spent on these useless searches.
However, not everything he found was useless. Lu Wu did come across some reassuring information.
He learned that summoned beasts would generally not harm their masters.
While there were incidents of summoned beasts injuring people online, there were almost no cases of them bullying their masters. Instead, there were numerous instances of despicable summoners mistreating their summoned beasts.
With this knowledge, Lu Wu's heart finally found some peace.
Moreover, Mini Skeleton's actions from the night before, combined with its frantic gestures, gave Lu Wu a clearer understanding of what it had wanted to do with the rope in the middle of the night.
After being thoroughly confused by Mini Skeleton, Lu Wu scolded it and strictly ordered it not to move around at night.
However, to soothe and encourage the little guy, Lu Wu patted its head in approval.
After all, while this incident had startled Lu Wu, a closer examination revealed it as a positive development.
It indicated that Mini Skeleton had become smarter and their bond had strengthened.
Therefore, this was an achievement worth encouraging.
It must be said that Lu Wu's attitude towards Mini Skeleton seemed even more caring than his attitude towards Duddu.
Indeed, Duddu had every right to speak up about this, but she dared not.
...
Upon arriving at school with Duddu, Lu Wu realized that the national treasure-like eyes were not unique to him. Especially when he entered the classroom, he noticed many others with similar eyes.
This was because many students had not slept well the previous night.
The difference was that Lu Wu's sleeplessness was due to Mini Skeleton, while theirs was caused by nerves.
For freshmen and sophomores, the first day of school was relatively uneventful.
However, for seniors like Lu Wu, the first day was arguably the most crucial day of the semester.
After all, the class allocation test for seniors was happening on this very day.
Whether they could make it into the elite class and whether they could get into the Summoner University would be decided today. For students aspiring to attend Summoner University, feeling nervous and experiencing insomnia were understandable.
Li Chun, having witnessed this many times, was no longer surprised. As he entered the classroom, his gaze lingered on Lu Wu for a moment.
Li Chun had been paying close attention to Lu Wu and was aware of his summer activities.
Lu Wu had been introduced to Li Kai by Li Chun, and Li Kai often shared updates about Lu Wu's progress, although Li Kai didn't mention hugging Lu Wu. Still, Li Chun was informed about some of Lu Wu's situations.
Li Chun knew that his uncle seemed to value Lu Wu highly and was nurturing him. Under his uncle's guidance, Lu Wu's Mini Skeleton had improved in quality, and its strength had progressed.
This should have been good news, and Li Chun should have been happy, but upon hearing the news and seeing Lu Wu's pair of Treasure Eyes, Li Chun couldn't help but feel a little unsettled.
"It's not easy to be noticed and nurtured by Uncle. I hope he gets picked by that teacher and enters the Advanced Class!"
After silently wishing Lu Wu well, Li Chun spoke up.
"Students, quiet down. I have an announcement regarding the class allocation test for the Advanced Class!"
"This year's class allocation test for the Advanced Class is a little different from previous years. There will be no cultural class assessment, and only the Summon Beast's strength will be evaluated."
"Students who are interested in the Advanced Class and have Summon Beasts of Black Iron Grade or those who have mastered three skills can now head to Field 3 for the Summon Beast strength assessment."
Li Chun's announcement shocked the entire class.
No one had expected such a significant change in the Advanced Class assessment. Not only was the cultural class assessment canceled, but the standard for Summon Beast strength evaluation was also set incredibly high.
The 619 Book Bar had an error-free version of this news!
Black Iron Grade or mastery of three skills? This standard immediately eliminated some students who barely met last year's criteria, and this group of students had the most challenging time accepting the change.
Lu Wu, however, was not among those eliminated. He was just a bit surprised by the significant changes in this year's class allocation test.
But despite the surprise, he still had to go for the assessment.
Lu Wu had already made up his mind. He planned to hang around the Advanced Class for a while, and if he enjoyed it, he would stay, but if not, he would leave. After all, he had his cheating skills and didn't need to endure any hardship.
So, Lu Wu, accompanied by Duddu, headed to Field 3 after seeking permission from Li Chun, who gave him a complex look as he left.
When Lu Wu and Duddu arrived at Field 3, there were already several dozen students there.
Seeing so many students, or rather, so many Summon Beasts of Black Iron Grade or those with three skills, Lu Wu's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but control his hands that were itching to touch.
Then, Lu Wu left Duddu behind and started doing what he did best.
This time, he didn't just grope the girls' Summon Beasts. As he made his way through the crowd, he chatted with every student he met and touched every Summon Beast he encountered.
In this process, Lu Wu collected data from dozens of Summon Beasts and also learned about the reasons behind the changes in this year's class allocation test.
Apparently, the school had hired a teacher who graduated from the Elite Summoner University to teach the Advanced Class, and this test was her idea!
Furthermore, it was rumored that this teacher was an exceptionally young and beautiful girl.
When Lu Wu heard this news, he felt a sense of deja vu, a strong feeling of familiarity, and a bit of restlessness.
He thought that perhaps this teacher might be attracted to his talent and then become immersed in his ordinary looks.
How to put it, but people with plain looks are just annoying.
As Lu Wu felt restless, a cold and arrogant voice accompanied by the sound of high heels echoed, "The one groping the bird, the student with the Mini Skeleton, you can leave!"
