The inter-college competition had attracted much attention. All the students were putting great emphasis on it, as if their failure in the contest would bring shame to their beloved school.
Even the non-participants shared the same sentiments. They would celebrate with great pleasure if their school team won, and feel sad if it lost.
Some people even expected their school to retain the championship title throughout their college years, so that they could proudly introduce themselves as alumni of the "champion college" when they went to work at the Heavenly Network in the future...
In addition, every team had specially appointed people in charge of updating the respective schools about the information of other teams as well as the current situation at the contest, so that their fellow schoolmates could remain up to date even from thousands of miles away.
Every school had their own uniform. For instance, Feng Yeming's was of bright red. In this color, the entire team was easily recognizable and seemed to be in high morale, as if they were shouting out proudly which school they were from.
Furthermore, there were dramatic slogans printed on the front of their uniform that spelled out "Passion" and "Glory"...
When the six teams gathered at Luo Shen Cultivation College, all of the participants were inspected under the spotlight as if they were some celebrities. Their personal information was exposed by their schoolmates, including who was a top Class C, who had awakened to the power of air controlling, and who could create blasts of air remotely to collaborate with flying dagger users.
Then, their age, height, weight, hobbies, birthday, number of ex-girlfriends and the reasons for the breakups were also attached below...
All of a sudden, the atmosphere heated up. Furthermore, on the cultivation college forums, over 70, 000 students were voting for their favorite players in the contest.
Among all, Wu Haosu from Luzhou Cultivation College and Bai Nuo from Northwest Cultivation College were the most popular, and they had received a similar number of votes.
Wu Haosu was a boy and Bai Nuo a girl, but both of them were of Class A aptitude. Besides, they had awakened to extraordinary powers too.
Moreover, they had one more thing in common: their beautiful, idol-like looks.
In fact, they were not the strongest in terms of abilities, but this world was a superficial one that solely focused on looks...
In the meantime, students at Luo Shen Cultivation College were casual spectators. Neither did they have teams to support, nor did they feel any need to get involved.
In their words, Lord Lu had to take the blame because their school had been exempted from the contest due to him.
For the students there, the greatest joy of the day was Lord Lu's Actual Combat lessons as part of their elective program. Not only could they gain combat experience through his lectures, they would also be able to hear about interesting gossip of many organizations from Lord Lu's storytelling sessions.
As for the Koh Chang remains, Lu Shu had mainly talked about the Collection of Gods, as well as the Pledge. He had also mentioned how secret practitioners tried to survive in this cruel world. Certainly, though, he had used them as negative examples and warned his students not to follow them.
Today, he would start on the stories in the Lop Nur remains and things that happened outside the remains. His lessons were engaging and informative at the same time.
Most people chose to attend his class out of sheer curiosity, but many of them stayed due to interest because Lu Shu unfolded before them a world they had little knowledge of.
Sometimes Lu Shu would invite "special guests" as well, including Cheng Qiuqiao, Chen Zuan and Cao Qingci, to share about their mission experience that was available for public disclosure.
That had piqued the interest of most students. For teenagers, their greatest motivation to explore the world was an insatiable sense of curiosity. When Lu Shu was narrating about the Koh Chang stories, one student interrupted him and asked, "Mr Lu, you talked about how the Pledge enslaved secret practitioners to extract broken magical weapons for them, but you did not explain how you dealt with the matter in the end. So, did you liberate all of them? Or did you simply look on?"
By logical deduction, Mr Lu should probably uphold justice, as that had always been advocated for in the Heavenly Network. Passion and justice, this should be their values at all times...
However, it would be understandable if Lu Shu did not take any action. After all, he was outnumbered, and Lord Lu was only a Class C back then.
In the next second, Chen Zuan almost laughed out loud."Mr Lu did not save them, nor did he look on. Instead, he chased the Pledge away and continued enslaving the secret practitioners... I heard that those practitioners are still going to the Golden Foundation to complain about our Mr Lu even till today."
All the students in the lecture hall were shocked... What the hell?
This was not going according to the script they had expected! How desperate those secret practitioners must have been at that time?!
Lu Shu turned to Cheng Qiuqiao, his face expressionless."Punch him."
Chen Zuan was dumbstruck.
With a loud bang, Chen Zuan was thrown backward by more than four meters before he could even react. Cheng Qiuqiao had finally taken his revenge and was able to vent his grudges against Chen Zuan. His punch was so fierce that it almost made Chen Zuan vomit the undigested magical liquid in his stomach...
"From Chen Zuan's distress, +666!"
Over the past few days, Cheng Qiuqiao had become increasingly angry as he thought about his power awakening experience. All the students listed on the college board belonged to either fire, air, earth or thunder type. But what was he? The incantations type! The Little Conch Shell! And to make matters worse, a messed up version of it!
In the past, Cheng Qiuqiao had been a very good boy who would not even utter a curse word. But now, the incantations he was supposed to chant were full of vulgarities!
Yet, it would be a powerful skill if he could command the sky. But the thing was, how could he show this on the stage? Moreover, none of his opponents had reached Class A, meaning none of them could fly, so what was the point even if he could control all flying objects?
But after that, all of them had a new understanding about Lord Lu. Now, it seemed totally understandable why Lord Lu had been banned from the contest!
The students could not help but start wondering how many more secrets Lord Lu had hidden in the other stories of his... It was said that Lord Lu had once used a gold bar as a ruler during one of his drawing lessons. Thus, the story about how he got the gold bar must be a very gory one!
Quietly, Coral sat among the class and listened to Lu Shu's stories. She knew she had been in some of his experiences as she had paid full attention to all the details.
It did not matter because one day she would remember everything, and Lu Shu had never forgotten any of it.
It was in this environment that all the other cultivation colleges were busy preparing for this inter-college contest, while Luo Shen students had the luxury of listening to stories and leading a carefree school life as if nothing special had even happened.
