Spare Me, Great Lord! Chapter 256

At night, after the brief hustle and bustle at the campsite, the respective cla.s.s form teachers quickly allocated the tents to everyone. Thereafter, the campsite momentarily quietened down.

Everyone wouldn’t forget that their original purpose for coming was to practice. The non-Yuzhou Dao Yuan Cla.s.s Students were already aware of the treatment of students from Yuzhou; Upon practicing outside the remains, they had to achieve a realm which was more significant than students from other areas.

This prompted several people to think that it would be a blessing if the remains appeared in their own provinces.

Of course, such thoughts have left them conflicted since the remains represented danger.

Gao Shenyin and Jiang Shuyi had started practicing long ago. Both of them had attained the mysterious Dao Chapter Cla.s.s D craft and still had a long way walking down the Cla.s.s D journey. If they could practice till mid-tier Cla.s.s D in this attempt outside of the remains, it would save them a lot of time in the future.

It was different from Chen Zuan. He had been stuck in the great consummation of Cla.s.s E. This attempt was also a military order established with his clan to move up the military rank and acquire the next step of the craft.

The clan itself existed as a hierarchical pyramidal structure. The highest level managed the economy and power of the clan. The rest then survived under them.

In the end, the younger generation would have to rely on their own efforts and a.s.sistance from the elders to smoothly complete the exchange of powers. This would then be counted as the true continuation of a clan.

In this world, in every ten years or so, there would be clans that flourished and those that crumbled.

Once the power was lost in whichever generation, that would be when it would start to crumble.

Chen Zuan and the rest of the younger generation pract.i.tioners knew clearly that the future was uncertain, and they had to strive hard to maintain their clans’ prosperity.

However, since the great summation of Cla.s.s E was attained, there was no need to think about practice every now and then.

Chen Zuan simply did not understand and asked Lu Shu, “Superior brother? Do you truly not have to practice a while. The remains have such good conditions? Isn’t your level of practice just Cla.s.s F? Straight flush.”

Upon finis.h.i.+ng his statement, Chen Zuan pulled out the poker cards from his hand to rid them.

Lu Shu muttered as he looked at the cards in his hand, “Crus.h.i.+ng death…it’s okay. There is no need to train. Just be more awake next time and it’ll be fine.”

Lu Xiaoyu glanced at the cards on her hand, “Don’t want.”

Once again, Chen Zuan drew a set of AKQJ10 straight flush from his deck and rid it. He felt a little uneasy after hearing Lu Shu’s words, “since when did being awakened become so easy?”

“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +99!”

“Joker bomb!” The joker bomb Lu Xiaoyu pulled out busted Chen Zuan’s straight flush.

Puff! Chen Zuan spat out a mouthful of blood, “Xiaoyu, can this still be played. Both of us are peasants. Lu Shu is the landlord. Why did you bust me!?”

“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +199!”

Lu Xiaoyu darted a look at him, “So what if I busted you?”

So what if… I busted you…

So what if…

This was busting a teammate. What do you think! Was there still sportsmans.h.i.+p!

“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +666!”

“I’m not playing anymore, not playing anymore. I don’t dare to provoke, don’t dare to provoke,” Chen Zuan threw his cards aside and conceded defeat. He then stood at his position to rotate ten rounds. This was their forfeit for losing the card game.

It was originally discussed that they wanted to have a small stake in Dou Dizhu, a dollar each round. In the end, Lu Shu said minimum gambling entertained, excessive gambling harmed. One dollar per round was too much, he would not play.

At that point, Chen Zuan almost choked on the retrograde magical energy.

After Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu seamlessly defeated Chen Zuan utterly, Lu Shu suddenly felt that having a stake in the game was not a big deal… Lu Xiaoyu would attack Chen Zuan no matter as a peasant or a landlord…

Chen Zuan put down his cards and became curious suddenly, “Brother Lu Shu, are you not planning to walk down the journey of practice? Awakening is actually a difficult matter.”

“Not difficult, not difficult,” Lu Shu said gladly.

According to typical circ.u.mstance, pursuing awakening itself if there was no practice would be very difficult. After all, it required mental stimulation to work. For now, the Heavenly Network had not found out a better method.

According to what Chen Zuan knew, the Heavenly Network had tried many methods like electric shocking, bungee jumping, parachute jumping, and directly pus.h.i.+ng someone off the cliff which had been equipped with protective measures. However, the end results were unsuccessful.

Again, not all failed but the rate of success was very low. There was no feasible method which could be promoted.

However, it was good that the awakening cla.s.s could be leveled up along with moral cultivation.

What about pract.i.tioners. For instance, it didn’t mean that Chen Zuan can stop practicing after he became a contender of the great summation of Cla.s.s E. He still had to spend some time every day to practice a big cycle to stabilize his own realm.

Practicing required consistent effort. To all, practicing every day was a mandatory homework.

This was Chen Zuan’s past belief until he met Lu Shu…

Yet, what plans did Lu Shu have? He could not possibly stay in the tent and sing “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star”. Frankly speaking, Lu Shu was even hoping that a commonly-hated contender would suddenly appear in the tent. This would allow him to play the old trick and launch a suicide attack. His distress would at least be increasing…

It was a pity that it was unreal.

Chen Zuan did earn some distress from playing pokers, but the game had already stopped.

He suddenly asked curiously, “Zuan, you’re aware of a lot of matters. Have you heard of the matter pertaining to the Heavenly King who is leading the troop?” Lu Shu questioned in this way to understand the characteristics of this Heavenly King. Lu Shu didn’t have a visualized impression as Li Xianyi gave an ambiguous explanation.

Chen Zuan pondered a while, “Actually, I do not know much. I only know that the temper of this Heavenly King isn’t very good. Please do not trigger him… Most importantly, do not speak foreign languages in front of him!”

“Don’t speak foreign languages in front of him?” Lu She looked stunned, “Is there an explanation for this?”

“Err… There’s no way to know. Just avoid using, else the consequences may be dire… especially mixing both Mandarin and Englis.h.!.+” Chen Zuan commented as he looked stern.

Mixing both… Were you attempting to sell Hulatang bean curd?

Why was everyone simply saying the Heavenly King didn’t have a good temper…

“Let’s drop the conversation. I shall practice a few big cycles a while to stabilize the realm before sleeping. I’ll not be able to sleep again upon receiving the craft from the mysterious Dao chapter…” Chen Zuan whispered before climbing up to his bed.

Lu Shu took a glance at Lu Xiaoyu, “Let’s go and wander outside.”

“Sure. It just so happens that the searchlight is lighting up the surface of the lake. Help me take some photos on the Chaka salt lake! I want those that look good!” Lu Xiaoyu said.

“Which past photoshoots of you did not look good?” Lu Shu wasn’t happy.

“Hehe.”

Just at this moment, Lu Shu suddenly received Xi Fei’s notification on the Dao Yuan Cla.s.s group chat: From today onwards, the internal department of Heavenly Network will replace the “ABCDEF” grading system for the apt.i.tude of abilities with “I II III IV V VI”. I will replace A, and so on.
