Divine Card Creator Chapter 326 - The Upcoming Graduation Season

Chapter 326: The Upcoming Graduation Season

Tian Du City.

Sword Card Master a.s.sociation.

Swoos.h.!.+

Swoos.h.!.+

Lights flashed.

The Original Card controlled by Zhao Yunshan kept dancing, releasing beams of terrifying lights, leaving clear traces in the testing area.

Basic swordplay, conversion rate 100%!

Advanced swordplay, conversion rate 95%!

…

Zhao Yunshan converted all the swordplays that he had mastered to abilities that the Original Card could use and he kept improving and upgrading them!

With the improvement of the Original Card, the conversion rate of the individual abilities was as high as 120%!

This was his daily goal.

He knew that this was his foundation as a Sword Card Master!

Ever since he joined the Sword Card Master a.s.sociation, it had been very long since Zhao Yunshan went out in search of legacies. This was because it was unnecessary!

He could search for information regarding the nurturing of the card spirit under senior sister’s panel.

He could search for the information regarding the improvement of the Original Card under the third senior brother’s panel.

He could search for the information regarding advanced swordplay under the master’s panel.

It had everything that he could wish for!

There was no need for any legacy!

In the past.

Due to his mediocrity, his route to swordsmans.h.i.+p ended at the five-star level. He could no longer walk this path. He had no choice but to give up, and right now… although he was only a four-star…

He had never been disappointed!

“Should I test it out?”

Zhao Yunshan looked at the testing area in the distance.

Bang!

The energy within him exploded.

Bang!

Bang!

He tried to unleash his most powerful combat abilities!

After a long while…

The testing was completed and there was a row of astonis.h.i.+ng data.

Actual Realm—Four-star Peak!

Most Powerful Prowess—Five-star Peak!

Surmounting Index—100%! That was a standard level!

These were Zhao Yunshan’s powers!

Although he was one realm lower than he had previously been, his combat abilities were very powerful! In fact, he was even more powerful due to an improvement in various areas!

Once he reached five-star…

Zhao Yunshan was looking forward to it. He knew that he would soon surpa.s.s his original realm!

However…

He was not arrogant.

This was because the surmounting index was considered common among the other Sword Card Masters.

Salted Crispy Chicken, the second senior brother’s surmounting index was 120%. He had just reached beginner four-star, but he already had intermediate five-star combat abilities. He was very talented!

Li Haoran, the third senior brother’s surmounting index was 110%. Although he was occupied with managing the a.s.sociation, his combat abilities were just as powerful.

As for the senior sister…

Well…

It was better not to elaborate further.

The senior sister who had just reached a four-star was said to bury many five-stars and six-stars in the legacy site at Qing Ming City…

Afterward…

Was his master.

Lu Ming was the most powerful Sword Card Master in the Sword Card Master a.s.sociation. He had the highest surmounting index! It was close to 200%. No one could surpa.s.s him!

He could have a one-to-one fight against a six-star and kill him instantly. Lu Ming was the only one capable of doing that!

“200%…”

Zhao Yunshan was looking forward to becoming stronger.

Suddenly…

The wristband vibrated and he received a message.

“Old Zhao, will you be partic.i.p.ating in this year’s graduation season?”

Zhao Yunshan was silent.

The graduation season…

Heh.

He had partic.i.p.ated twice and they ended in failures!

The resources that he had thought were powerful and the trump cards that he had exchanged for money were useless in the graduation a.s.sessment. All of them turned out to be ineffective. Was there really hope this time?

“No, in a few years…”

He was used to saying no. But he suddenly paused.

“Yunshan! Remember! This year’s graduation season is very special… This year is the Millennium celebration of The First Academy…

How is it different?!”

…

School celebration…

Graduation season…

Zhao Yunshan was silent.

He knew that if given a chance, he would be able to pa.s.s in the future!

Now that he had cultivated to be a Sword Card Master, he believed that he would be able to make it. However, he would definitely miss this special graduation season!

He would miss the Millennium school celebration!

Before, he would not have dared to think about it. But now, with the Tai Chi Eight Parts, perhaps…

It was worth a try?

Hence…

Zhao Yunshan took out Xiao-Xiaohou from below his crotch to practice.

As for the senior sister and Master…

He would not embarra.s.s them!

…

At this very moment…

Lu Ming was studying Tai Chi Eight Parts.

Although it would be difficult in real combat, at the very least he should be aware of his limit in simulation training or when fighting with one-star enemies!

It was a pity…

Lu Ming kept failing in the second part.

Regardless of whether it was sealing or materialization during combat, it was the card spirit who controlled the core! The card spirit functioned like a CPU, helping him handle everything!

While Xiao-Xiaojian…

Sigh.

Lu Ming sighed.

All of them were card spirits. Why was there such a big difference?!

“I really can’t master it.”

Xiao-Xiaojian was honest about it.

Everything regarding geometry… It was not good at it!

Xiao-Xiaobai only needed to read through once and it could understand and memorize the contents in the book. It could even apply the concepts and make deductions. However, Xiao-Xiaojian would fall asleep after reading it for five minutes…

Mathematics was simply like a hypnotic spell!

It was a sword spirit. It could withstand the charm and mental attacks of countless enemies, yet it could not resist the hypnotic effects of mathematics-related knowledge…

It would fall asleep within five minutes!

“A—alright.”

Lu Ming sighed.

It had already put it like that, what else could he do?!

He could not possibly force it!

Back then, when he was in school, he was not a hardworking student. Instead, he was very interested in gaming and programming. He eventually ended up on a no-return route of going bald…

One’s interest was very important.

“Xiao-Xiaojian.”

“Yes.”

“What are you interested in?”

Lu Ming asked gently.

Xiao-Xiaojian pondered for a moment. “Female spirit bodies?”

Bam!

Lu Ming slapped it tightly.

To h.e.l.l with that!

He was angry at its indecent behavior.

“I don’t feel pain anymore.”

Xiao-Xiaojian was proud about it.

Pain?

No way!

Right now, it had recovered some of its strength. Lu Ming could no longer inflict pain on it. Hahaha. Before, it was trapped in the Original Card, but now it had gotten stronger!

It was useless to force it!

No way!

Xiao-Xiaojian was very proud of itself.

“Xiao-Xiaojian…”

Lu Ming sighed.

“Yes.”

Xiao-Xiaojian puffed its chest proudly.

“I really don’t understand spirit bodies.”

Lu Ming pondered for a moment. “According to the theory, spirit bodies have no gender. In that case, Brother Cat can be considered a spirit body as well. If the two of you are together…”

A strange and mysterious s.e.xual scene flashed in Xiao-Xiaojian’s mind. It trembled in shock. “Brother Cat, I am wrong. It has nothing to do with me! Prosperity, democracy[1.Core socialist values]…”

Bang!

A black shadow flashed.

Xiao-Xiaojian was blasted to the ground, leaving a deep pit on the ground.

After a long while…

Psss~

Water burst forth from the pit.

“Oh, this is water from underground…”

Lu Ming heaved continuous sighs.

Hehe.

How dared it try to misbehave around him!

Lu Ming ignored Xiao-Xiaojian after teaching it a lesson.

Forget it.

It was a card spirit…

He would not ask too much of it as long as its cultivation speed was up to standard.

He should not pin too much hops on it.

Lu Ming was in no hurry. Anyway, he had the Z-shaped Lightning Slash, it was useless to seal this. He was not in a hurry. The priority right now was to increase his energy level.

Hence…

Lu Ming began another round of crazy cultivation.

Right now, due to the upcoming graduation season as well as his status as a fresh graduate, Lu Ming was given the best treatment at the Card Creators a.s.sociation and the Swordsman a.s.sociation!

It was awesome!

He could work on increasing his energy!

He could work on increasing his energy!

He could work on increasing his energy!

It was cool to have two a.s.sociations help him with his cultivation.

At this cultivation rate, Lu Ming reckoned he would reach advanced four-star in a month!

The time was reduced from one hundred days to one month!

The speed was amazing!

It was just that this situation did not last long. A few days later, people asked around regarding the ‘graduate of The First Academy’.

…

The First Academy.

Many teachers asked around for information regarding this graduate.

“We heard that there is a student who graduated recently.”

“Really?”

“Of course it is true.”

“Pss—The graduation season is coming. What does it mean to approve graduation beforehand?”

“I don’t know.”

“Will it have something to do with the graduation season?”

“That is possible!”

Some teachers could not help but make speculations.

The timing…

Oo…

It was interesting.

It seemed that the dean had made plans. As the teachers from The First Academy, they knew very well how terrifying the dean was!

There must be a reason behind this.

…

The First Academy.

Plum Blossoms Garden.

Retained students would congregate in this area of The First Academy. The reason it was called Plum Blossoms Garden was because the bitter cold added a keen fragrance to the plum blossoms, It suggested that the retained students… had to go through difficulties.

Shus.h.!.+

Shus.h.!.+

Cold lights flashed.

The retained students were working hard to cultivate.

“Brother w.a.n.g, are you feeling confident this year?”

“I don’t know.”

Brother w.a.n.g looked solemn.

This was the third time!

If he could not graduate this year…

“I heard that someone graduated two days ago,” someone suddenly said.

“What?”

Everyone’s heart trembled.

Graduated?!

Two days ago?

This must be kidding! The graduation season had yet to start. How would someone graduate now…

“Graduating in advance?!”

Everyone was shocked.

One would need to submit a special application to graduate in advance. It was much harder than the a.s.sessment!

It was true.

To every student, graduating in advance was much harder than a normal graduation! There was a price to pay if they took a different path!

Notwithstanding that the a.s.sessment of The First Academy was already very difficult!

However…

Someone had completed it!

“I don’t know. I told people to ask around but they didn’t come back with anything… All we know is that the graduate has been to the Card Creators a.s.sociation and the Swordsman a.s.sociation.”

“You should ask around. If he really has an early graduation… we must get in touch with this senior!”

Everyone’s heart was stirred.

The a.s.sessment for the graduation season was coming. If they could know in advance from the senior what would be a.s.sessed…

Hence…

The students from the Plum Blossoms Garden were tempted.

They tried their best to contact their friends and relatives, and to mobilize all possible forces in search of the senior who had graduated early!

…

At this very moment…

At the office.

The dean was looking at the latest data report.

Suddenly…

The a.s.sistant spoke up. “Dean, do we still need to take note of what Lu Ming is up to?”

Shus.h.!.+

There was a flash of brilliance in the dean’s eyes.

He looked toward the a.s.sistant next to him and there was a shadow of a smile on his face. He stared at him for a long while until there were beads of perspiration on his forehead, before he asked softly, “Who made you ask that?”

The a.s.sistant swallowed a mouthful of saliva. “A relative.”

Yesterday.

A distant relative who had been doing well promised him a lot of things and told him to ask around. Since it was nothing serious, he had agreed to it. But he never imagined that…

“Dean, is it very serious?”

The a.s.sistant wiped his perspiration.

He did not want to lose his job because of this.

“Not really.”

The dean put down the materials. “I am just surprised… since they have asked us, I reckon there is news of it outside?”

“Yes.”

The a.s.sistant reported the recent situation.

Now.

The students, teachers and many people were asking around for the information regarding this graduate. Until now, no one suspected that it was Lu Ming!

After all…

Nominally, Lu Ming was not their student!

However, since the dean made this arrangement at this special time of the year,especially with the upcoming activities, everyone was somewhat fl.u.s.tered and wanted to investigate further.

“These people are really…”

The dean could not help but laugh after listening to the report made by the a.s.sistant.

Graduation season?

The Millennium anniversary?

What was happening?

Actually…

He truly wanted to send Lu Ming away so that he would not cause any more trouble…

Cough.

He was not against Lu Ming. It was just that he was unsuitable to study here! His talents were simply too weird!

Some students might score an average of eighty points for all subjects…

However, Lu Ming was those students who scored sixty points for one subject, and one hundred and twenty points for another subject… The most bizarre thing was that full marks was one hundred points. Heaven knew why he had one hundred and twenty points! And so, everyone was curious and would have the wrong moral values… The dean was familiar with what would happen next!

This child was like his elder sister. They were like devils!

However…

Lu Yan was a true all-rounded genius!

As for Lu Ming…

He only excelled in certain subjects.

Initially, he would idle around and others would have the impression that they belonged to the same level. Just when one had believed so, he would exceed the level and one would have a mental breakdown!

Must be freaking kidding me!

Whenever he went for lessons, something would happen!

Furthermore…

The dean checked Lu Ming’s past experiences. He belonged to the typical type that would turn the tables!

As long as it was related to the a.s.sessment, regardless of whether they were activities, legacy sites, or legacies, Lu Ming would turn the tables in incredible ways.

It was like that for the Lunar Shadow legacy.

It was like that for the Spiritualist legacy.

Therefore, why should he arrange for Lu Ming to graduate?

It was very simple.

It was so that he would not harm the graduation season…

The graduation season coincided with the Millennium anniversary. it was what the real talents were really after. Every student who was selected played a part in the overall stability and safety of this world!

It was very important!

Under such circ.u.mstances, there must not be any mishaps!

Therefore…

This was the only way.

After listening to the explanation, the a.s.sistant was dumbstruck.

Obviously…

He did not know the implications behind Lu Ming’s graduation. He thought that it was merely to prevent Lu Ming from destroying the graduation season and the school anniversary!

“Seriously?”

The a.s.sistant was stunned.

He knew very well of the situation for this year’s graduation season!

Six-stars were deemed salted fish[3.Salted fish: Chinese Internet Slang for a boring and idle person with no ambitions] as well!

Due to the Millennium school anniversary, this upcoming graduation season would have very high requirements. Notwithstanding Lu Ming who was only a four-star, even six-stars would not have an easy time!

Unless…

The dean would like to help Lu Ming!

That was right.

This was the day before graduation season!

One year had pa.s.sed. All the various a.s.sociations had prepared their resources. Right now, Lu Ming was the only graduate, and he would be given all the necessary resources that he wanted!

Lu Ming would be able to make a significant improvement in his cultivation during this period of time.

This treatment…

Tsk tsk.

Ordinary graduates might not be given this kind of special treatment!

“Lu Ming should thank you.”

The a.s.sistant felt emotional.

Hehe.

The dean merely smiled.

Thank him?

He was the one who should thank Lu Ming.

He was really worried that Lu Ming would destroy the school anniversary… as for the so-called graduate status, he was not helping him, but more like compensation…

After all…

He had personally gone to the Starry Sky Pavilion!
