Chapter 91: Goblin Warrior
Chapter 91: Goblin Warrior
After dropping Doudou off at home, Lu Wu made a quick stop at the neighborhood supermarket to buy some wine for his father and picked up a notebook for himself to write in later.
As he exited the supermarket, Lu Wu came face to face with Lin Jianying.
"Good evening!" Lu Wu greeted, his eyes instantly drawn to the unusual goblin behind Lin Jianying, who seemed startled to see him and offered an awkward greeting in return.
"Good... evening!" Lin Jianying managed a forced smile.
The goblin behind him furrowed its brows. It remembered this human; he was the strange one who always touched it.
The goblin didn't like him and wanted to hit him, but its master had forbidden it from attacking or intimidating humans. So, it could only hide behind Lin Jianying, hoping Lu Wu wouldn't notice it.
But that was clearly impossible.
The moment Lu Wu spotted the goblin, his eyes lit up. "Has your goblin evolved?"
"Huh?"
"Can I touch it?"
No way, keep your hands off me!
The goblin was displeased, but unfortunately, its master thought otherwise.
And so, the goblin was pulled in front of Lu Wu, who began to examine it closely.
To make matters worse for the goblin, not only did Lu Wu touch it, but his little skeleton also joined in.

...
As Lu Wu read through the goblin's attributes, he couldn't help but squint his eyes.
It's worth mentioning that every time Lu Wu encountered this goblin, its attributes were different.
This time, the changes were particularly significant.
With a 3-star strength, it was almost at the Elite Level.
The goblin had undergone its first evolution, and although the quality had dropped to the Common Level due to the evolution, this didn't hinder its combat power.
After all, quality itself doesn't significantly impact combat strength.
It primarily affects a summon beast's potential, such as the upper limit of strength growth and morphological evolution. If the quality doesn't reach the Black Iron Level, both the first morphological evolution and the breakthrough from the Common Level to the Elite Level are extremely challenging.
Often, strength breakthroughs and morphological evolutions are interconnected.
Now that the goblin has evolved into a Goblin Warrior, achieving the Pig-Bird Strategy, it should have no trouble reaching the Elite Level.
Furthermore, if this goblin can improve its quality through further cultivation, it might even undergo a second evolution and achieve another strength breakthrough.
However, Lu Wu is more concerned about how the goblin evolved so quickly.
It's worth noting that Lu Wu had touched the goblin at the beginning of the school year when it was only a 1-star strength. In less than two months, it has grown to this extent. Could Ye Qingsnow's training be that effective? Lu Wu couldn't help but recall the tall-legged girl he encountered earlier.
At that moment, he didn't notice the summoning beast by the girl's side. You see, a summoning beast of the 【Normal】 level would not be able to stray too far from its master.
Usually, they would stay close to their owner, and this girl was the class leader of the elite class. With her summoning beast not by her side, there was only one possibility—the girl's summoning beast might have already surpassed the 【Normal】 level.
"Is your class leader's summoning beast already at the Elite level?" Lu Wu asked directly, his curiosity piqued.
"Yep!" Lin Jianying nodded, causing Lu Wu to gasp in surprise.
"Damn, it's true! No wonder this girl is so arrogant, even claiming to secure the provincial competition slot for Quancheng. But wait, isn't it said that you can only have a summoning beast at the age of eighteen? She hasn't had it for long, has she? How did it reach the Elite level so quickly? And how did you manage to get your goblin to the Lord Rank 3 in just two months?"
Lu Wu's questions touched on information that was strictly prohibited from being shared outside the elite class.
Technically, Lin Jianying shouldn't have revealed this information.
But in the one six one nine book bar one look Wu one correct version, he did.
"Our class leader's summoning beast, according to rumors, had already reached the Bronze level or higher at the start. With Teacher Ye's assistance and their family's willingness to invest resources, it's not surprising that it reached the Elite level in just a few months."
"As for my goblin achieving Lord Rank 3, it's because we've been cultivating in the mystic realm for more than a month. Additionally, Teacher Ye helped me create a goblin breeding plan, and I've been strictly following her plan for the past two months."
"As for strength, my goblin is currently ranked around tenth in our class."
After hearing this, Lu Wu was stunned.
He had previously assumed that the average strength of the elite class would be similar to Zhang Yun Kai's.
He never expected their abilities to be so formidable, which explained the tall-legged girl's bold claim about securing the provincial competition slot for Quancheng.
It seemed that the elite class, or rather, Ye Qingsnow, truly had something special.
This also clarified why the principal of Sanzong Middle School appeared so humble before Ye Qingsnow.
However, Lu Wu soon found himself puzzled again.
Ye Qingsnow, with her exceptional abilities, was clearly no ordinary person and should be considered a big shot. Why would such a person come to teach in a small place like Quancheng?
Why go through so much effort to cultivate the elite class? His intuition told him there was definitely something more to this.
But upon further thought, he realized that whatever it was, it had nothing to do with him.
The reason for Ye Qingsnow's presence in Quancheng held no significance to him. What mattered was that there was now a formidable obstacle in his path to the provincial competition.
Did he really need to change cities for the college entrance exam? This thought flashed through Lu Wu's mind, but he quickly dismissed it.
He was a broad-minded person.
Whether or not someone lost face was irrelevant; what mattered was that he wanted to take the exam in Quancheng.
Afterward, Lu Wu chatted with Lin Jianying for a bit, obtained the goblin breeding plan that Teacher Ye had given him, and then left with Mini Skeleton to go home and write in his diary.
Lin Jianying watched Lu Wu's departing figure, carrying the items he had taken, and then glanced at the drink Lu Wu had stuffed into his arms as a gift. His heart couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.
At the same time, Lu Wu's home welcomed another visitor...
