Spare Me, Great Lord!

The students at Luo Shen Cultivation College had gradually become used to Lu Shu’s unexpected plot twists. Actually, to them, the inter-college contest did not seem that impressive after they had seen the greater world outside through Lu Shu’s stories.

This was because in reality, your opponents would never care about your life, unlike in school.

During this period of time, they felt as if they had experienced all the dangers and miracles that had happened to Lu Shu.

Thus, they felt even more uninterested in the upcoming contest…

In the meantime, students from the other cultivation colleges were busy voting for their favorite candidate. In fact, there were not many of them in total, and most people would definitely vote for their own schoolmates first.

However, they soon realized that there was not a single candidate from Luo Shen Cultivation College on the list!

What was going on?

They had heard that Luo Shen Cultivation College had planned to send five people from the Species Research Specialization, but afterwards Lord Lu was banned from the contest. Thus, they were unclear about the current situation. Would they send another team? Anyway, they could not possibly send a 4-people Species Research team!

In any case, without Lord Lu, Luo Shen probably had no chance of getting the championship this year.

However, the other schools soon realized that Luo Shen students were not interested in voting for candidates from other colleges either. Every vote counted, as that could widen the gap of the number of votes between close rivals!

Some people tried to lobby Luo Shen students into voting for their members. “Wu Haosu from our Northwest College is not only a handsome guy, but a powerful man as well. He killed three Class C’s of another organization during his mission last year!”

They talked for so long just to emphasize how impressive their team member was.

Then, the Luo Shen students would log into the forums and sent posts along the lines of “Wu Haosu is so cool.”

Then, how about the voting? They did not vote for a single person at all.

Having seen this, Luzhou College thought that their Bai Nuo had a better chance. But Luo Shen students’ response to them was the same.

That made the other schools rather upset. Since you were not sending any candidates for us to vote for, what was wrong with you voting for ours? Although we understand that Luo Shen was not participating in the contest this year, could you at least do something instead of slacking off?

A student complained impatiently after wasting so much saliva in lobbying, “What’s wrong with your Luo Shen College? You haven’t even finalized your list of participants and all of the students here seem totally uninterested in the contest. Do you not have any sense of honor?”

“We have Class B(‘s) 1 ,” replied Luo Shen students.

“Ha, so you are really sending in your Species Research team. But even with Cao Qingci on the team, why do you think a four-people group can defeat ours?”

“We have two Class B’s,” explained Luo Shen students.

“Wait, what? Who’s the other one?” other students asked in shock. In the past, they only knew that they had two Class B’s, Cao Qingci and Lord Lu. So who was the third one? Were they kidding?!

After a while, they finally coaxed the information out of Luo Shen students – Lu Xiaoyu had ascended to Class B as well!

In fact, Lu Xiaoyu was famous across all three states for beating up everybody during the military camp. Yet, she was only a Class C then and now she was a Class B!

The students from the other colleges started to calculate. In fact, all the other candidates were Class C’s. Casting Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao aside, who could be defeated by one Class C each, they might still win if the remaining members focused on Cao Qingci and Lu Xiaoyu!

Even if they had two Class B’s, nine Class C’s could still win against one Class B due to the drastic difference in number!

In the meantime, however, Lu Shu was playing Chinese chess with Lu Xiaoyu, Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao. They bet five bucks for each round. Cao Qingci was reading quietly beside them. The book in her hands had changed to Einstein’s Relativity from A Brief History of Time. None of them paid any attention to the noise outside.

The chess game was a rather intense one. Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao felt as if they had been tricked as Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu could coordinate with each other too well.

Not only so, Cheng Qiuqiao was targeting Chen Zuan too…

Chen Zuan did not have good game ethics. He always wanted to recall his step after realizing that he had unwittingly helped his opponents. At this moment, Cheng Qiuqiao would stare at him coldly. “No retraction of a chess move. Do you not know that?”

But Chen Zuan was very cheeky. Cheng Qiuqiao’s words had no effect on him at all.

At first, Lu Shu was not bothered to interfere either. But when Chen Zuan lifted up his chess piece after realizing that he had helped Lu Shu, Lu Shu looked at him expressionlessly and said, “No moving of a chess piece after retraction.”

Lu Xiaoyu rolled her eyes at Lu Shu at once, while Cheng Qiuqiao stared at him in astonishment. As always, Brother Shu had better ways!

“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +666!”

The little fatty obeyed reluctantly.

At this moment, the expression on Chen Zuan’s face suddenly turned strange. He sat uneasily in his seat and his face had turned red. After a short pause, Lu Shu warned, “You are dead if you dare to shit in the lab.”

Immediately Chen Zuan dashed to an unoccupied room in the lab and shouted, “I’m going to break through!”

Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu looked at each other in surprise. Indeed, it was about time. Unexpectedly, though, his breakthrough had happened so casually.

Meanwhile, Luo Shen students were still arguing with the other colleges that victory would be theirs with just two Class B’s in the contest.

In any case, it was an honor by itself that they had two Class B batch mates in their school.

At this moment, however, they heard wild, loud laughter from somewhere in the school building. “HAHAHAHA, I, Chen Zuan, have become a Class B too!”

That was totally unexpected. A Northwest College student had just posted that “We can exhaust you with long battles even if you have two Class B’s…”

After a moment of silence, a Luo Shen student replied, “Now we have three…”
