Chapter 37: Long Aotian, the Abandoned Son of a Wealthy Family
Lu Ming happily watched his credits being credited to his account, and lamented that he had snatched a good job.
Freshmen are so easy to fool. If he didn't have some connections, he wouldn't even be the new students' whetstone. The school has a rule that students with too high a cultivation level are not allowed to apply. I heard that many sophomores who achieved a breakthrough early were lamenting and secretly hating themselves for forgetting to suppress their cultivation level. This wasn't a freshman trial competition, it was clearly a competition for seniors. Credits, credits, here I come!
After dragging another unlucky freshman into the woods and hiding him there, and then stuffing the token with half the points missing into his hands, Lu Ming patted his pants and went to wait for the next fat sheep.
My lovely juniors, let me, the senior, teach you the first lesson of college life, hehe.
"Look! There's a Qingling grass over there!"
A young man in white clothes excitedly said to his companions.
Oh, another little fool has taken the bait.
Lu Ming curled the corners of his mouth, and quietly hid in the bushes beside him. He used the spell of holding his breath and waited attentively for the two men to come forward. As soon as the two men let down their guard, he could take them down.
The second after the white-clothed youth's fingertips touched the Qingling Grass, Lu Ming no longer concealed his presence, soared into the air, and attacked boldly!
He is actually in the late stage of foundation building!
The young man in white and his companion exchanged several glances in a short time. It was bad, they couldn't win, so they didn't resist much and chose to surrender. Lu Ming was confused and tied them up without any hesitation. He tied them together and took out the token, but his pupils trembled.
"You, you guys, why are your points all 0?" Doesn't this mean he worked for nothing?
Lu Ming saw that both of them were smiling bitterly. The young man in white said bitterly, "Brother, all our points were taken away by a freshman." He deliberately put a little emphasis on "a".
Another person joined in: "Almost all the freshmen around here have been robbed by that person. Now I'm afraid... everyone's points are zero." He shook his head with a dejected look.
Being such an arrogant freshman basically makes you the public enemy among the freshmen.
Lu Ming shook his head secretly in his heart. This was just a small freshman trial competition. Why was it so extreme? Once he really entered the college, that kid would be in trouble.
After making some comments like a seasoned veteran, Lu Ming was somewhat tempted. How many points should this freshman have? If he robbed the freshman, wouldn't he have the Barrier Breaking Pill that he had always wanted to exchange for?
During the few minutes that Lu Ming was hesitating, the two people who were tied up beside him exchanged glances several times.
Young man in white: Has he taken the bait? How about we add some more information?
Another person: Don’t be impatient, don’t be impatient, wait a little longer, we need to be patient.
In the end, Lu Ming still couldn't suppress the desire in his heart. He hesitated and said, "What is the level of cultivation of that person?" If his level is too high, he will give up.
The young man in white was stunned for a moment, and he said slowly: "I remember... it seems to be the middle stage of foundation building, don't you think so?" He asked his companion for confirmation, and his companion also looked as if he was trying hard to recall, and finally nodded affirmatively.
He didn't notice that the two people in front of him were acting too hard. Desire blinded Lu Ming's eyes. Lu Ming was happy. He was only in the middle stage of foundation building. But the last trace of caution in his heart made him ask: "Does he have any companions to help him?"
The young man in white said firmly, "Definitely not!" Realizing he had replied too quickly, he quickly added, "The two of us battled that man for a long time, and no one else showed up to help him."
"Struggle!" Lu Ming felt something was wrong. "You two are both in the early stages of foundation building, how could he have snatched your token away like that?"
Damn it! I didn't expect this. The young man in white had alarm bells ringing in his head. He frantically thought about ways to remedy the situation. What should he do? What should he do?
"Because that man is so insidious, cunning, shameless and despicable!" His companion suddenly shouted, attracting Lu Ming's attention. At this moment, he burst into a superb acting performance that he had never seen in his life. He gnashed his teeth in hatred, and even a tear flowed from the corner of his eye.
"He first deliberately led the two of us to a treasure land, saying that a rare treasure had been born there, but his cultivation was not enough to defeat the guardian spirit beast alone and seize the treasure. When we got there, he took advantage of our unpreparedness and attacked us. His fighting style was extremely vulgar and shameless. The two of us, really..." When he talked about the sad part, he almost choked with sobs.
Men don't shed tears easily, only because they haven't reached the point of sadness.
Lu Ming was instantly filled with respect, a look of sympathy on his face. It was a pity that these two had such unkind intentions. But, as Old Six was concerned, he wasn't a bad guy either! His heart was racing. He thought, if he could just give it a try, his bicycle would become a motorcycle! He quickly asked, his face righteous and awe-inspiring, "Show me where that unsportsmanlike kid is. I'll let you, as their senior, teach him the lesson of friendship and mutual assistance among classmates."
I didn’t expect it to be my senior!
"I remember it's over there!" The young man in white pointed far to the east. Lu Ming's face lit up with joy. He didn't care about the two people who landed on the ground and flew directly in that direction.
Only after Lu Ming's back was completely out of sight did the two young men in white dare to relax. He relaxed his spirit and said disdainfully, "Tsk, you're still a senior, but you can't even see through this trick."
His companion rolled his eyes and jokingly said, "Don't be so arrogant. You've been fooled once before. Didn't you rush over to the Qingling Grass just now?"
After being attacked by his companion, the young man in white looked embarrassed and decided to change the subject: "Since he has fallen for it, we should move on to the next step."
He moved his fingers, and a trace of spiritual energy seeped into the ultra-mini butterfly that had been quietly lying on his sleeve. The butterfly flapped its wings lightly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
In less than a quarter of an hour, another person appeared in the bushes and released the restrictions for the two of them. Then the three of them disappeared into the forest together.
On the other side, after Lu Ming estimated that the distance was about right, he descended from the air, expanded his spiritual sense, and silently explored the surroundings. He was immediately overjoyed.
All the spiritual plants and creatures along the way had vanished completely, and judging by the degree of renovation of the land, it had only been less than an hour. Suddenly, Lu Ming's eyes moved. Over there, there were traces of a new battle!
Could it be that he was so lucky that he ran into the real boss as soon as he arrived?
Lu Ming carefully followed the traces of the battle and the sounds in his ears became clearer and clearer. Soon, his eyes lit up and he was overjoyed.
What was in front of him was a scene of two people, one in black and one in blue, fighting fiercely. The man in black was in the middle stage of foundation building, while the man in blue was only in the early stage of foundation building. Soon, the man in blue was defeated by the attack of the man in black and gradually fell into a disadvantage.
"Junior, senior is here to help you!"
Lu Ming shouted, grabbed his weapon, and joined the battle. He blocked the attack of the man in black and repelled him with a single blow. He smiled handsomely at the blue-clad junior, "Junior, let's deal with this shameless man who openly stole our classmate's token!"
But what greeted him was not the grateful look from his junior. Instead, he saw the junior smile strangely and said slowly, "Thank you, senior, for coming to help me pay off my debts and escape from suffering. You are truly a kind-hearted person."
What
The moment he finished speaking, the junior student sprinkled a handful of poison powder from his pocket and flew it straight towards Lu Ming's mouth and nose. Lu Ming was caught off guard and inhaled several times. Before he could think about the meaning of the junior student's words, he felt dizzy and fell to the ground. The last thing he saw was the angular chin of the young man in black.
Hmm...
"Hey, Lu Ming, you finally woke up."
Lu Ming opened his eyes, and what he saw was a familiar face from the same period. He flipped over and stood up: "You, you, you, why are you here?"
He subconsciously wanted to use his spiritual power, but found that his spiritual power was imprisoned together. What on earth was going on?
"Hello, senior." Wu Lingnan took a bite of a spiritual fruit and waved to Lu Ming with a smile.
Lu Ming finally had time to look around. The one waving his token over there was the man in black.
Seeing Lu Ming looking at him, Pei Yichen raised his eyes lazily and gave him a look. What? What are you looking at?
What the hell? Lu Ming rubbed his eyes in disbelief, but the scene was still the same. He looked around again and saw two familiar faces. He stretched out his finger tremblingly and pointed at the two young men in white:
“You, you guys…”
The young man in white took a step back, waved his hands quickly, and began to shift the blame: "Senior, I tell you, don't blame me, I was forced to do it myself." When Wu Lingnan glanced at him, he shuddered and immediately changed his words, "No, no, anyway, senior, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being so gullible!" You stepped into the trap yourself, what does it have to do with me? Thinking of this, he became justified again.
I'm so gullible!
You are clearly too shameless!
Lu Ming almost vomited blood. His reputation as a class was ruined in an instant. What happened to this class of freshmen? Back then, he was so pure and innocent as a little lamb as a freshman.
Wu Lingnan finished eating the fruit, tossed the spirit core aside, and with a kind smile on her face, she slowly walked over to Lu Ming and patted his face with her flute. The other four people approached her and surrounded him. Wu Lingnan slowly said, "I planted this tree and built this road. If you want to pass through here, leave me some money to buy your life."
Facing the five people's kind gazes, Lu Ming's heart trembled, and he said in a low voice: "What does this mean?"
Wu Lingnan smiled wickedly, "It's very simple. I have your token. If you want to get it back and regain your freedom, then you can help us. Rob or cheat a few more people to boost your sales. Once you've earned enough points, you'll be free."
What an unfair clause!
Lu Ming was unwilling to be tricked by his junior classmates. He said stubbornly, "What if I don't?"
"Oh," Wu Lingnan narrowed his eyes, "Let me introduce myself. I come from the Miaojiang Five Immortals Sect. I'm not very talented, but I'm quite good at controlling Gu."
Xiang Gucheng followed closely behind, smiling slightly: "I am from Xiangxi, and I have a few little ghosts. Senior, do you want to play with them?"
Bai Wanyan was not willing to be outdone, and her eyes were full of charm: "I am a disciple of the Tushan Patriarch of Qingqiu. I wonder if you would like to have a good talk with me."
Lu Ming: ...
In an instant, the horrific rumors about these three veins flashed wildly in his mind. He swallowed and looked at his brother of the same period. He saw his brother smile miserably, and Lu Ming instantly imagined everything.
His eyes went dark, and he hated himself for being bewildered and believing the nonsense of the young man in white. No, he shouldn't have signed up for this damn freshman trial competition. Now he had met three bad guys.
