Divine Card Creator

Chapter 156 - You Are Too Formidable!

Panda Novel

Qing Ming City.

At the shop.

Lu Ming and Xiaobai looked at each other in consternation.

Cough, cough.

Lu Ming coughed. “Then why did you say that you have lots of blood?”

He was really innocent.

It was true.

After all, which young lady would say that she had lots of blood for no reason. However… if that was not the case, why would Xiaobai say that?

He was curious.

“Humph!”

Xiaobai turned her small face away, refusing to say anything else.

Her master was so annoying!

She had wanted to tell him her secret, but right now she did not feel like saying anything!

Snort!

“Xiaobai?”

Lu Ming leaned over.

Xiaobai puffed up her face in anger.

Lu Ming pinched her face.

It was bouncy.

Xiaobai glared at Lu Ming.

“Be good.”

Lu Ming smiled. “I am sorry. This Swordsman ability is too dirty. I will teach you a better Swordsman card. Sister Lu Yan has just learned it as well.”

“Really?”

Xiaobai’s eyes lit up.

“Yes.”

Lu Ming smiled. “How much energy do you have now?”

“Two thousand points,” Xiaobai replied.

“Two thousand points…”

Lu Ming curled the corner of his lips.

It was indeed good to have an Original Card that could cultivate by itself!

However, if it was two thousand points…

Previously he thought given that his Full Moon needed two thousand five hundred points of energy, Xiaobai might not have sufficient energy. But he had forgotten that the basic Full Moon only required eight hundred points of energy!

It was sufficient!

Perhaps…

He could teach it to Xiaobai.

Lu Ming’s heart stirred slightly.

The reason why he did not consider it these few days was because the knowledge that he gained from Lunar Shadow legacy was slightly confusing. He had no idea how he should teach her. Besides, he was worried that it would invite trouble! He did not want others to notice them for now, or to have to be hunted down by Assassins or to risk being abducted.

However…

The basic Full Moon was not one of the hidden abilities in the legacy. He could impart this to Xiaobai.

It was feasible!

Lu Ming had made up his mind.

“Come.”

He created a normal Full Moon Card.

Buzz—

Moon-like Sword Aura!

It looked beautiful and surreal!

“Wow.”

Xiaobai’s eyes lit up.

“Are you satisfied with this?”

Lu Ming smiled faintly.

“Yes!”

Xiaobai nodded her head vigorously.

“Hehe.”

Lu Ming patted her head, teaching her the basic lines for the Full Moon. “You can practice the lines now. In the future, you will be considered as half a Swordsman.”

“Okay.”

Xiaobai was very happy.

In the future, she was a Swordsman as well!

Well…

This Swordsman ability looked much better than the previous ability that spewed blood!

It was as handsome as her master!

“This girl…”

Lu Ming laughed involuntarily.

Alright.

It was just as well that Xiaobai took a special path, training to be a Card Creator who specialized in Swordsman abilities! It was a pity that Xiaobai’s Original Card was unable to undergo tempering!

Otherwise, he could impart the Lightning Slash to Xiaobai.

Think about it.

Wasn’t it suaver to use the Original Card as a Sword Embryo?

This was what Lu Ming had in mind.

Suddenly…

He felt that something was amiss.

This feeling…

Shush!

He looked toward where Xiaobai was.

Xiaobai was working hard on learning how to create the card. There was nothing wrong with her. However, Lu Ming’s gaze shifted to the right and his expression turned strange.

This…

In the corner of the shop…

Xiaobai’s Original Card floated in the air, lights surging around it.

Well…

It was cultivating by itself.

Lu Ming was accustomed to the fact that it could cultivate by itself.

However…

It was fine that the Original Card was floating, however, there was a heavy brick on top of it. As the lights surged, the Original Card kept moving up and down in the air.

Lu Ming was dumbstruck.

Crap!

Weight training? You are too formidable!

“Ahhh…”

Xiaobai noticed that her master was looking in her direction. She seemed embarrassed. “This is what others do for tempering therefore, I want to give it a try as well…”

Lu Ming was speechless.

In his eyes…

The Original Card had turned into a person, he was working hard to carry the brick doing weight training. He seemed to be able to hear the faint sounds of “one, two, three, four, and again” in the background.

This…

This would do as well?

“Am I doing it the wrong way?”

Xiaobai sounded a little embarrassed.

“No.”

Lu Ming took a while to come to his senses, as he said calmly, “A qualified card spirit must be able to withstand hardship. Only in this way can our Original Cards become stronger!”

“Okay.”

Xiaobai clenched her fists. “I will work hard!”

The Original Card shivered.

…

Lu Ming’s life went back to normal.

He would sell Leviathan Cards to earn money and worked hard on studying cards, while he slowly worked on understanding the knowledge in the Lunar Shadow legacy, and to improve his energy level.

However…

Lu Ming had a sense of urgency.

It was true.

He had intended to lead an idle life.

Now that he had the legacy and there were no strong enemies keeping a watch on him, he could take his time to increase his energy…

However, now that Xiaobai’s cultivation speed was getting quicker and quicker, and her Original Card was even doing weight training, he felt a sense of urgency.

Xiaobai was well-behaved and adorable, but he was still the master!

Think about it.

If he led an idle life…

There might be a day where Xiaobai told him that she had surpassed him!

Lu Ming felt like jumping off the cliff.

This would not do!

No way!

He had to become stronger!

He had to do it faster!

He had sufficient energy right now, the important point was his cultivation rate.

Ever since his energy underwent transformation—perhaps due to the high quality of his energy—after he drew the cards, the energy would increase at a very slow speed. It did not catch up with his cultivation!

His energy quality was too high. He needed higher quality card lines to bring about a cultivation effect!

Perhaps…

He should find a new Cultivation Card.

Hence…

Lu Ming’s gaze focused on his Original Card again.

Back then, he had already conquered several high difficulty level cards, like the Demolition Card and the Burial Mound Card, as well as a four-star Swordsman Card. He had to work on new cards.

In his study of new cards, the little energy soldiers belonged to the lowest energy level and were the weakest among the integrated cards!

Similarly, the consumption was very low.

“It is you then!”

Lu Ming began to integrate the Burial Mound Warrior.

Very soon…

Seven cards were integrated.

A new card emerged!

Buzz—

The card was transforming!

Four-star!

Lu Ming looked toward the front side of the card automatically. There was a full moon in the dark sky. It looked pretty artistic.

Eh?

Lu Ming was somewhat surprised.

He was used to seeing all kinds of strange and mysterious card surfaces. He did not expect to see beautiful moonlight scenery this time. What had this to do with the Burial Mound Warrior?

Oh.

Moonlight, summons, could it be the Sailor Moon?

Wait a minute.

This was odd. This was the card that belonged to the energy summoning series. A three-star card would summon Burial Mound Warrior, why would a four-star card summon a Sailor Moon?

Could it be…

Lu Ming was silent. Perhaps the Burial Mound Warrior would be dressed in female clothes?

Forget it.

He would create it first.

Shush!

Lu Ming turned to look at the back of the card.

There were rows and rows of lines. Lu Ming could vaguely see the ring island design that he learned previously, as well as some design plans that he could not understand or had yet to learn.

And…

Lamination!

He scanned through the lines. He understood 40% of the lines, he had to deduce the remaining lines.

“I need to read up on the related knowledge.

I have to do thorough research on this Cultivation Card as soon as possible.

Well… Regarding the textbooks…”

Lu Ming paused and turned back. “Xiaobai, how’s your progress with the two-star textbooks?”

“I have finished reading them.”

Xiaobai thought for a while. “I have yet to start on the three-star materials.”

“It’s okay.”

Lu Ming smiled. “I will buy the four-star textbooks for you first. After reading the three-star materials, we will go directly to the following materials. Remember to ask your father for reimbursement.”

“Okay.”

Xiaobai nodded obediently.

“Good.”

Lu Ming was satisfied.

The four-star textbooks were very expensive. It was better to get reimbursements for them…

As a principal, Old Jiang would not take issue with him.

That afternoon.

The four-star textbooks had arrived.

Lu Ming began to read through them.

Four-star was a new stage. Since it was at a different energy level, Lu Ming even read up on the techniques of switching between three-star and four-star cards. It was alright to use a four-star card as a three-star card. At the very least, Lu Ming had handled four-star cards before. There was no problem in using them.

But if three-star cards were to switch to four-star…

Well…

It would be troublesome.

Theoretically, there was no perfect transformation.

If he forcibly converted the energy that he was using right now to four-star, other than the issue of compressing the energy, there was the problem of the conversion rate.

Lu Ming was not worried about that.

He had high-quality energy now. He should read up on related knowledge before moving on.

However…

He was surprised to receive a call from Zhang Wei when the day was almost over. Lu Ming felt guilty. Perhaps what he did previously had been exposed?

“Do you go to the vocational technical college at the crossroads?” Zhang Wei asked.

“Yes.”

Lu Ming nodded.

“True enough…”

Zhang Wei gave a deep sigh.

“What’s the matter?”

Lu Ming’s heart jumped a beat.

“You should know that something serious happened a few days ago.”

Zhang Wei whispered. “Many four-star cultivators’ auras are exposed and one of them was more special. I have investigated and discovered that there was a group of cultivators from the Ministry of Education! The reason why they made the secret trip here was to evaluate the situation of your school secretly.”

“Huh?”

Lu Ming was surprised.

“I don’t know the details. It is just something messy and complicated… It seemed that someone in your school lodged complaints and reported the school, therefore, the higher-up sent people to investigate.

The results are apparently out. All they need to do is to hold a meeting and it will be settled. Your school might be closed down!”

Zhang Wei whispered.

Lu Ming was dumbstruck.

He could not believe that such things would happen to him.

“What about the students?”

Lu Ming thought of this question.

“I’m not quite sure.”

Zhang Wei scratched his head. “According to the news that I saw in the past, there will be a new round of examination to see which schools are willing to accept the students.”

He did not know the details.

However, the vocational technical college at the crossroads did not have any scores. Basically, one paid money and was accepted. There was no hope of anyone becoming successful.

“Assessment?”

Lu Ming raised his eyebrow.

Given his abilities right now, it did not matter if he went to school or not. Being a student was merely an identity that he used while hiding. If he needed to go through assessment, he would choose not to go to school.

However…

This matter…

“Do others know about it?” Lu Ming asked.

“Nobody knows about it.”

Although the people from the investigation team said to keep it confidential, these people were not related to him. Who cared about what they said? To Zhang Wei, it was far better to inform Lu Ming so that he would owe him a favor.

“However…”

Zhang Wei paused. “You must not spread it to others, especially your fatty friend.”

If the fatty knew about it, the entire school would learn about it. By then, the school would be in an upheaval even before the ministry had decided on anything!

“Understood.”

Lu Ming expressed his thanks before hanging up the phone.

What was going on?

Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.

He did not need to worry about Zhang Xiaopang. He would be able to lead a good and idle life no matter where he was. Instead, he was worried about the principal. He needed to be prepared.

Perhaps…

He already knew about it?

Lu Ming thought about it and made a phone call to the principal.

Beep!

There were only endless beeping sounds.

This stingy fellow…

Lu Ming pursed his lips. It must be due to the textbook fees.

“Xiaobai, come over here.”

Lu Ming told Xiaobai to call.

“Okay.”

Xiaobai made a phone call to Jiang Feng.

However…

To his surprise, there were endless beeping sounds on the other end of the phone as well.

Beep!

…

Lu Ming frowned slightly.

If he was not mistaken, Jiang Feng used a wristband as his cell phone as well. He only needed to wave his hands to answer the call. He could tell from the panting sounds that he heard the previous times…

He was able to answer the call even when he was in combat!

It would not interfere with his activities.

Right now…

He should wait for a while.

At night.

He and Xiaobai made phone calls to Jiang Feng but there were still beeping sounds.

This situation…

The next day.

Early morning.

The first thing that Lu Ming and Xiaobai did when they woke up was to give Jiang Feng a call.

Beep!

There were still the familiar beeping sounds.
