My starting summon is a small skeleton-Chapter 205 - 202 Frustrating Lu Wu
Chapter 205: 202 Frustrating Lu Wu
Lu Wu here.
At first, when he heard about Kong Yi's situation, he was quite panicked and even thought about getting beat up.
After all, only by getting beaten could he get stronger and provide Lu Wu with a sense of security.
But panic is just panic, and Lu Wu couldn't live in constant fear.
Besides, he still had Dudu, didn't he?
Spending every day with Dudu, he wasn't too afraid of Kong Yi.
After all, Kong Yi couldn't do much to Dudu in Inheritance Land, and besides, he had Li Kai at home.
Uncle Li at his house wasn't a pushover either. His house's Big Bear was almost at the Lord level, and just a step away from Master Level. With him around, Lu Wu felt somewhat secure.
Thus, shortly after Jiang Yuexing left, Lu Wu adjusted his mindset.
He decided to just do what he had to do.
And having just come out from the instance, Lu Wu felt the most important thing to do now was to check what he had gained from the instance.
Yes, he thought so, and so he did.
First was the improvement in power.
"Over here, Little Skeleton and little goldfish both hit Boss 2 Star, and I've also turned professional.
The rest of my followers have also become Bosses.
Over at Dudu's, she turned professional, and Tuantuan hit Boss 1 Star, Green Cub almost did but hit Elite 3 Stars.
Old Lin is pretty much similar to Dudu, only his Gouzi lagged a bit at just Elite 1 Star.
The system also upgraded, now I can see the attributes of summoned beasts within twenty meters, and I can also see the attributes of professional summoners."
Then there was the item aspect.
Not much there, just that Lu Wu had obtained a "Transmission Order."
"Right, the item I originally spent nearly ten thousand merits intending to sacrifice was saved and not used, and also, Little Skeleton's phone still has several detailed photos of altars, which I can use to study the altars in the future."
Having tallied everything, especially realizing he saved nearly ten thousand points, Lu Wu instantly felt much better.
After finishing counting his gains, it was time for Lu Wu to consider what he needed to do next.
Lu Wu thought for a moment and listed what he needed to do.
"One is to research the evolution issue of Little Skeleton and his minions.
One is the task given to me by the rich woman.
Oh right, there's also Jiang Beifeng who owes me 50,000 points and the issue of the White Bone Wild Boar training program hasn't been solved yet."
"Among these, the latter two are minor matters; the important ones are the first two."
Although the rich woman's task was imposed on Lu Wu by the rich woman herself,
after spending some time together, Lu Wu felt that the rich woman was pretty good to him.
So, he took her task to heart.
After listing these tasks, Lu Wu started to get busy, focusing mainly on the rich woman's task and secondarily on the evolution of Little Skeleton and the others, as he began planning his life for the coming period.
"The task given to me by the rich woman is to become the team leader of Jiangnan University's team and participate in next year's university competition.
This definitely needs to be approached in two steps; first is the team leader issue.
I need to know how to become a team leader. Should I just resolve it by force, or do I need another method?"
About this, Lu Wu naturally won't bother cracking his brain himself.
After all, he had people that could be used.
Lu Wu directly contacted Zhao Kai Ming to consult about this matter.
The information he got made Lu Wu quite shocked; he hadn't expected this matter to be unexpectedly simple.
Lu Wu had thought he would have to go through numerous trials and tribulations to defeat the current team leader and become the team leader himself, but,
surprisingly, as soon as he expressed this intention, Zhao Kai Ming immediately made a gesture.
"This matter? This is a small issue, just leave it to your Uncle Zhao!
Let me tell you, your Uncle Zhao still carries some weight at Jiangnan University, this kind of small matter should indeed be left to your Uncle, I can settle it clearly in minutes!"
Lu Wu heard Zhao Kai Ming vow solemnly.
He instantly believed his boast, feeling that this matter was definitely settled.
Then, Lu Wu no longer worried about how to become the team leader, and started preparing for the tasks that would follow his appointment.
He also casually asked Zhao Kai Ming to take on the task of collecting past data on the university competitions and Jiangnan University's squad.
Zhao Kai Ming patted his chest and went to work.
"Hmm, now I just wait for news from Uncle Zhao. Once he sorts out the team leader issue and delivers the competition and team data, I will plan the next phase according to the situation."
With that, Lu Wu suddenly found himself with some free time.
And since Lu Wu wasn't the type to stay idle, he knew he had to make use of this time.
Just right, there were two minor issues yet to be dealt with.
Lu Wu planned to just handle these two issues while he was at it.
He made another call to Zhang Wentao, asked the Fucheng Cultivation Center to prepare, and then Lu Wu booted up his computer and re-uploaded the initial version of the White Bone Wild Boar cultivation plan.
System prompt: the plan is under review.
This was just a procedure, Lu Wu remembered it was quite fast, so he didn't mind it.
While waiting for the plan to be reviewed, Lu Wu picked up his phone and made a call to Jiang Beifeng.
After the competition, Lu Wu had been busy with matters concerning the Inheritance Land, and those 50,000 points had been outstanding for half a month now, Lu Wu felt it was time to urge him.
The call connected, and the other side picked up quickly.
Lu Wu took the initiative: "Hello, Teacher Jiang, you told me last time that I would get 50,000 points within a week at most, but now half a month has passed, and there's still no news. You're not planning on reneging, are you?
I'm telling you, we signed an internal network agreement, you can't renege on this account. If you don't pay up, I might just have to sue you!"
His tone was particularly strong!
However, once the person on the other line began speaking, Lu Wu was flabbergasted.
"Are you Lu Wu?"
It was a middle-aged man's voice, very polite and courteous, but it was not Jiang Beifeng's voice.
Lu Wu had a feeling that something was amiss.
"What? Isn't this Jiang Beifeng's phone? Where is he?"
"Oh, the thing is, this number belongs to Jiangbei University's Admissions Office, and Mr. Jiang Beifeng has resigned, so the university has taken back this number.
Also, let me introduce myself, I am the new person in charge of the Admissions Office at Jiangbei University..."
Lu Wu didn't wait for him to finish and cut him off.
"I'm not interested in who you are or what's happened to Jiang Beifeng. What I want to know now is, Jiang Beifeng made a bet with me on behalf of Jiangbei University, owing me 50,000 points. When do you plan to pay me back?"
"I was actually about to discuss that matter with you."
The middle-aged man on the phone remained polite, but his words made Lu Wu furrow his brows.
"Here's the situation. Our Jiangbei is a legitimate university, and we strictly prohibit gambling among teachers and students.
Therefore, from any angle, Mr. Jiang Beifeng had no authority nor could he represent our Jiangbei University in betting with you.
He was also dismissed from Jiangbei University because of the gambling issue!"
"So what you're saying is, Jiangbei University plans to deny this debt?"
Lu Wu was clearly not pleased.
But the person on the other line still smiled, "I'm sorry, but Jiangbei University does not endorse gambling nor will we respond to any gambling matters.
If you have any disputes with Mr. Jiang Beifeng in this regard, please resolve them privately.
Furthermore, as an educator, I would like to remind you, cherish life and stay away from gambling. You are..."
"Click!"
Lu Wu, his face stern, hung up the phone directly.
"Not bad, I didn't expect Jiangbei University could stoop this low and outright deny the debt.
Seeing how confident they are, I bet I can't even get in touch with Jiang Beifeng now."
Lu Wu was grinding his teeth in anger.
After all, 50,000 points was not a small sum of money!
Don't think that Lu Wu made money quickly and fiercely before, but that was thanks to the platform of the high school league.
And also because the teams from Jiangnan had been suppressed for several years by outside teams. Lu Wu winning the championship had brought relief and pride to the people of Jiangnan.
The most uptodat𝓮 n𝒐vels are published on freёnovelkiss.com.
It can be said that Lu Wu made that money then due to a perfect alignment of talent, location, and people's support.
Even then, Lu Wu had only made a bit over 20,000.
Now, the easy 50,000 about to slip through his fingers, could Lu Wu swallow this insult?
"This money must be recovered!"
Lu Wu definitely would not let this slide.
However, just as Lu Wu was pondering how to reclaim the money, the results of the assessment for the "White Bone Wild Boar" cultivation scheme came out on the internal network.
Lu Wu picked up the phone, about to inform Zhang Wentao when he suddenly noticed something wrong with the assessment.
"What's going on? Not approved?"
After checking the content of the assessment, Lu Wu's eyes narrowed.
He opened the email right away, and his face grew even darker.
The email was short. If you chopped off the beginning and the end, it basically contained only one line of information.
[Your "White Bone Wild Boar Soup" scheme was not approved because it highly overlaps with an existing scheme!]
"How is that possible? I've reviewed all the White Bone Wild Boar cultivation schemes and none were the same as mine. How could there be an overlap?"
Lu Wu darkened his face and opened the "White Bone Wild Boar" cultivation scheme section.
As soon as he did, he was stunned.
Because he discovered that there was an additional cultivation scheme, and the scheme's name was "White Bone Wild Boar Soup".
Lu Wu had a hunch what had happened.
"This couldn't be the doing of someone from Jiangbei Cultivation Center, could it? They wouldn't stoop to such despicable measures, would they?"
Yet indeed they had!
Lu Wu bought a copy of the "White Bone Wild Boar Soup" scheme and read it thoroughly.
After reading it, Lu Wu felt like his worldview had been turned upside down.
This was clearly plagiarism of his scheme.
Or rather, it couldn't even be called plagiarism; it was outright copying.
At most, they had translated it back and forth after copying and made a few modifications they thought were clever.
"So blatant, so brainless?"
Lu Wu felt this did not seem like something Jiangbei University or Jiangbei Cultivation Center would do.
There were many ways to suppress him; they didn't need to resort to such disgusting methods.
But the truth was, they did exactly that!
This really upset Lu Wu.
And that wasn't the end of it.
Today seemed to be a particularly unlucky day for Lu Wu, with one frustrating matter following another.
Lu Wu had not yet recovered from the shock of Jiangbei denying the debt and the plagiarism of his cultivation scheme, when Zhao Kai Ming who had just confidently told Lu Wu he'd handle the team leader issue called.
Lu Wu had hoped for some good news finally, but Zhao Kai Ming started with, "Xiao Lu, maybe we should just forget about the team leader position this year?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Wu was on the verge of exploding!
