Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Definitely Didn’t Become a Teacher, But Ended Up as Principal

So, in the days that followed, Lu Wenwu found himself with one more thing to do besides studying.

Training for a new profession.

Every day, he would spend a large amount of time practicing the skills from the inheritance diligently.

This profession perfectly complements the Divine Power: Heaven-Swallowing Earth-Devouring, and Lu Wenwu was very devoted to it.

The entire cooking process of Spiritual Cuisine wasn’t really packed with new surprises.

It wouldn’t suddenly cause a “crack” followed by a bolt of Celestial Thunder like Alchemy or Artifact Refining.

Apart from specific techniques and some utensils with arrays, the whole process was almost no different from regular chefs making medicinal dishes.

Not only that, the Spirit Chef profession didn’t have clear grade distinctions like Alchemy, Talismans, Artifact Refining, or Arrays.

For a finished Spiritual Cuisine, there’s no concept of success or failure.

Only whether it’s tasty or not.

Only how much medicinal property it holds.

Only the extent of Spiritual Charm it can unleash.

Even a beginner Spirit Chef can attempt those high-difficulty dishes.

The worst outcome is just ending up with a pile of charcoal, nothing much to worry about.

The only requirement is one word—practice!

Stir-frying, stewing, stir-frying, boiling, simmering, grilling, steaming, simmering, frying, roasting, and marinating, among others.

Many of these were territories Lu Wenwu hadn’t delved into before.

Not to mention the entirely unfamiliar field of handling medicinal herbs and his barely adequate sword technique.

Starting anew with practice and learning, the failure rate was considerably high.

Mastering the technique of unleashing Spiritual Charm was highly challenging.

It wasn’t until the eve of the joint exams that he barely managed to get the hang of it, barely stepping into the field.

And the “failures” produced during his practice were naturally enjoyed by Mao Mao, Xin Shengzhu, the deceitful objects in Class One, and members of the Azure Dragon Learning Mutual Aid Association.

Even if the Spiritual Cuisine didn’t successfully unleash medicinal properties and Spiritual Charm, it was still extraordinarily delicious as ordinary dishes.

Using these as motivation, the study enthusiasm of the deceitful object students in Class One surged again.

Plus, with the help of the Azure Dragon Learning Mutual Aid Association, during this time, the entire senior year participated in an intense competitive study craze.

The learning results of a crowd of deceitful objects began to rise like a rocket.

Unintentionally, a great era of competition was triggered, something even Lu Wenwu hadn’t anticipated.

…

Three months later.

The joint exams had finally arrived.

The players finally saw the light of completing the instance.

Of the 30 people who entered initially, only 18 remained.

A death rate of 40 percent, this instance definitely counted as high-risk.

But that was only for ordinary players.

As for Lu Wenwu, he lived every day like a local emperor here.

Even the headteacher and the principal had to greet him with smiles and call him “Brother Wu”!

Completely deserving the title of the Uncrowned King.

Such a comfortable life made countless human players envious, nearly turning green with envy.

They even suspected that this school belonged to him.

Of course, Lu Wenwu did lend a helping hand to others.

Anyone willing to reach out and ask with a token Spirit Coin or some little trinket got his help without a hitch.

It was just a matter of a word anyway.

Whoever Brother Wu decided to protect, no deceitful object dared to lay a finger on them!

Aside from those few unlucky ones who died at the start, those who died later all fell victim to their own overconfidence and baseless arrogance…

Under such circumstances, the high school joint exams finally began.

In the exam hall, with a sweep of his Divine Sense, the scenes of his exam hall and several adjacent ones appeared in Lu Wenwu’s mind.

By comparing the answers of numerous top students, he effortlessly filled in every sheet.

Fortunately, deceitful objects didn’t require composition writing, or he wouldn’t have had anything to copy.

As for the physical education scores…

On the day, Lu Wenwu was the first to appear. With full strength, one punch knocked a C+ level humanoid deceitful object examiner out, and it took half an hour before it came to its senses.

Then, amidst the shocked expressions of the examiners, he left the exam hall with the universally acknowledged perfect score.

The feeling was like sending off the plague god.

Perhaps thanks to their unique body structure, the deceitful object teachers graded the papers quickly.

The results were announced the day after the exam.

Lu Wenwu, who had collected the strengths of many, easily entered the top ten of the joint exams, with grades as excellent as could be.

What surprised all the deceitful objects was that the top scorer of this joint exam was none other than Prescription, who usually kept a low profile!

According to Prescription’s roommate, over these three months, Prescription had given it his all.

Sleeping later than Mao Mao, rising earlier than the roosters each day.

Studying like mad, ravenously!

When Prescription ran to Lu Wenwu with a certificate in hand, crying and laughing, saying “I didn’t let Brother Wu and the Azure Dragon Learning Mutual Aid Association down,” Lu Wenwu felt a mix of emotions.

Though Prescription was a deceitful object, he was a truly genuine one.

In three months, he created a miracle.

Lu Wenwu, as promised, spoke with the principal and held an exclusive banquet for Class One in a corner of the cafeteria, inviting all subject teachers and the entire class of deceitful object students to feast for three days.

The entire school’s deceitful objects were immensely envious.

Moreover, Lu Wenwu crafted a special piece of Spiritual Cuisine for Prescription using some of his own blood as a parting gift to his honorary disciple.

A single serving of this Spiritual Cuisine caused Prescription to tearfully break through from C- to C-level instantly.

It was simply like a dream.

That night, Prescription shouted between sobs, “Brother Wu is my mentor for life, my big brother for life!”

Standing nearby, playing with the Cyan Dragon Chairman’s Order, Lu Wenwu smiled but said nothing.

On the ninety-first day.

The principal personally hosted a celebration and rally event.

Celebrating the outstanding scores students achieved in the joint exams, and wishing all the students the best for the upcoming national college entrance exams.

Listening to the principal’s impassioned speech, Lu Wenwu felt a sense of returning to his senior year.

“…I believe everyone in our school, especially all the students in Class One, should thank one person,”

“This person is our Brother Wu!”

“Without his motivation and encouragement, how would you have come this far?”

“It was him who pulled you from that abyss, altering the destiny of your later years!”

“Now, let’s give a round of applause to welcome Brother Wu to come up and receive his well-deserved reward!”

Lu Wenwu was dumbfounded, but he still smiled and went up to receive the award.

“Congratulations, this is what you deserve.”

The old principal affectionately shook Lu Wenwu’s hand, and from the tray Xin Shengzhu was holding, he personally handed Lu Wenwu an exquisitely embossed appointment and a pitch-black medal.

Lu Wenwu glanced at the appointment and trophy base.

[Quixotic Yu Ying Middle School Honorary Principal Appointment]

[Quixotic Yu Ying Middle School Supreme Honor Medal]

This…

What is this?

He just wanted to speak.

But everything before his eyes began to freeze, continuously blurring.

The instance was about to be settled.
