Divine Card Creator

Tian Du City.

Sword Card Master Association.

Lu Ming shut off the communication device silently.

There were some things that could not be communicated clearly through the communication device. Therefore Qiu Shuyi decided to visit him. Lu Ming had the feeling that something seemed to be odd… This was Senior Qiu!

His elder sister’s master!

Well…

Should he counsel her himself?

There seemed to be a catch… Uh, it was impossible for the master of his elder sister to be so adorable!

Ss——

Lu Ming gasped as he slurped his Liangpi[1]

He lowered his head and saw Xiaobai’s puffed up cheeks and glaring eyes…

Cough.

“What wonderful things is Master thinking about right now?”

Xiaobai snorted.

“N-nothing.”

Lu Ming lowered his head feeling guilty.

Cough.

After breakfast.

Lu Ming first went to look for the wild child who had joined them yesterday. After coming to the association, he told Li Haoran to do a talent assessment for the child.

When Lu Ming reached him, he happened to overhear their conversation.

Li Haoran: “Do you want to become stronger?”

The teenager in white: “Yes!”

Li Haoran: “Louder, I can’t hear you!”

The teenager in white: “Yes!”

Li Haoran: “All powerful cultivators have a belief. Do you have one?!”

The teenager in white: “Yes!”

Li Haoran: “What is your belief?”

The teenager in white: “To become like the president!”

Li Haoran: “Not bad! henceforth, you are a member of the Sword Card Master Association! You will become powerful like the president. You will be able to combat beyond your level and have a bright future!”

The teenager in white: “Yes!”

Hence…

He looked at his badge with excitement, there was an inexplicable sense of pride from the bottom of his heart.

Lu Ming was speechless.

Damn!

He had been brainwashed!

He checked the time. It had only been less than 14 hours since they duped the teenager in white to the association… What had happened during the night?!

“Master.”

Li Haoran noticed that Lu Ming was here.

“What is happening?”

Lu Ming was surprised.

Cough, cough.

Li Haoran whispered. “Children at this age are more naive. They are very passionate about what we tell them. It is as if they are injected with chicken blood.”

Lu Ming was expressionless. “This is the child of a Card Creator Grandmaster.”

“Huh?”

Li Haoran was shocked.

Card Creator Grandmaster…

He did not know that the teenager had such a promising future!

“Therefore, don’t try to fool him.”

Lu Ming sighed.

He had just joined and they fooled him into believing them. They might be beaten to death by the grandmaster!

“Fool him about what?”

Li Haoran was puzzled.

He did not fool him…

He was telling the truth.

Lu Ming was silent.

Oh.

Crap!

It seemed that Li Haoran never felt that there was a problem.

A—alright.

Lu Ming sighed.

It seemed that he had to solve it himself.

Hence…

He had a private chat with the teenager in white. “You should go back.”

“Are you looking down on me?”

The teenager in white became teary-eyed.

“I’m not…”

Lu Ming sighed. “You have seen for yourself that this is only a small association. Since your father is a Card Creator Grandmaster, it is better to learn from him.”

“Are you looking down on me?”

The teenager in white was about to cry.

“I didn’t…”

Lu Ming’s head ached.

He was being serious about it,

“You are after all the child of a Card Creator Grandmaster…”

Lu Ming said slowly. What he left unsaid was that they did not want to dupe him.

“Are you looking down on my father?”

The teenager in white had tears in his eyes.

Ss——

Lu Ming gasped a breath of energy. This was an attempt to poison the well. Damn! Did he learn this on Baidu Tieba[2] or Weibo[3]?

“No!

“Certainly not!”

Lu Ming waved his hands continuously.

He must be kidding. Please be careful of what I said!

“If so, why can’t I join the association?”

The teenager in white asked him with tears in his eyes.

Lu Ming was silent.

Damn it. Look at the extent to which he believed our lies. There is no way to talk some sense into him!

Forget it.

Lu Ming could not be bothered to waste any more time on him. The root of this problem was with his father. It just so happened that Qiu Shuyi had told him about it and gave him a phone number…

However, it was another thing if the call could be connected or not.

Hence…

Lu Ming took the initiative to contact the Card Creator Grandmaster.

“Elder?”

“Lu Ming, hello.”

“You know me?”

Lu Ming was very shocked.

“Of course.”

The Card Creator Grandmaster spoke in a mild tone. “Our circle is larger than you imagine. The seniors know about your achievements. You are very good. Continue to work hard.”

Lu Ming was speechless.

These words made him panic.

Continue to work hard?

What should he work hard on?

Cough.

“This is what happened…”

Lu Ming took the initiative to explain. “Your son is at my association and he wants to join the Sword Card Master Association and to change vocations. I don’t think it’s a good idea. Therefore, I want to seek your advice.”

“Oh?”

The Card Creator Grandmaster was stunned.

Change vocation…

Why would an Elementalist change vocation?

“Get him to talk to me,” the Card Creator Grandmaster said in a low voice.

“Okay.”

Lu Ming put the teenager in white on the phone.

“Dad,” the teenager in white said weakly.

“What do you want?”

The Card Creator Grandmaster said coldly.

“I want to become a Sword Card Master!”

The teenager in white said through clenched teeth.

“I dare you to say it one more time!”

The Card Creator Grandmaster said coldly.

“I want to become a Sword Card Master! I want to become someone like President Lu Ming!”

The teenager in white said loudly.

“Sure!”

The grandmaster had a gratified smile on his face. “You have finally… grown up.”

Lu Ming was speechless.

Damn it! What kind of magic fantasy plot was this?!

However…

He did not know that the Card Creator Grandmaster was almost in tears.

The foolish child had a dream from a young age and it was to become an Ice Elementalist!

Ever since he saw a Sailor Moon Ice Elementalist transform, he always felt that Ice Elementalists were pretty and beautiful. From then on, he embarked on a path of no return…

No matter how he persuaded him, he would not change his mind!

He would not listen to a Card Creator Grandmaster’s advice, in the end…

That was how he had turned out!

Now that he was willing to change to a Sword Card Master, he was all the more happy!

Although a Sword Card Master was not a Card Creator, the vocation core was the same. The card contents were the same as well. It was almost like a replica of a Card Creator. There was someone who could inherit his legacy!

True enough.

It was a right decision for him to learn from Lu Ming!

“My child, have you made up your mind?”

The Card Creator Grandmaster asked.

“Yes!”

The teenager in white said loudly.

“Okay.”

The Card Creator Grandmaster was very pleased. “Then work hard on your cultivation.”

“Yes!”

The teenager in white was thrilled.

“Elder?”

Lu Ming was dumbstruck.

Are you kidding?

I was asking you to persuade your son, not to egg him on… Although it might not be a problem now, one day your son will be fooled silly!

By then, I will not be able to afford to bear the responsibility!

“I will have to trouble you to take care of him,” the Card Creator Grandmaster said gently.

“No, Elder, this place is not suitable for him…” Lu Ming explained.

“Are you looking down on my son?”

The Card Creator Grandmaster said lightly.

“No!”

Lu Ming smiled dryly twice. “Well, you are a person of great reknown, it is not appropriate for us…”

“Then are you looking down on me?”

The Card Creator Grandmaster sounded calm.

Ss——

Lu Ming gasped a breath of air.

Damn!

They were indeed father and son!

“No! How is that possible?!”

Lu Ming hurried to deny. He must be kidding. He did not dare to continue with the topic of discussion.

Hence…

The case was settled.

The teenager in white remained in the Sword Card Master Association.

…

Right then…

Somewhere.

That Card Creator Grandmaster smiled faintly.

“You are bent on bullying people.”

His wife found it amusing.

“In fact, the child’s background is not simple. Look, Qiu Shuyi, Lu Yan, the dean as well as the Chief of Operations and so on are his acquaintances. Although I don’t know his parents, they are certainly reputable as well. He might be fearful of me, but he was still very honest to tell me that he is worried that he will lead the child astray. What does this mean?This child has a worthy sense of responsibility! He has talents, looks, a pure heart and a sense of responsibility. To tell you the truth, I am a little jealous of his parents…”

The Card Creator Grandmaster sighed. “One should have a child like Lu Ming.”

“Are you saying that I did not give birth to a good child?”

His wife narrowed her eyes.

“No!”

The Card Creator Grandmaster’s heart ached. “My dear wife, I will never find fault with you.”

“Then are you saying that I did not teach him well?!”

There was a cold glitter in his wife’s eyes.

Ss——

The Card Creator Grandmaster gasped a breath of cold air.

This was bad.

Today, he might have to kneel on a CPU[4]…

…

At this very moment…

Sword Card Master Association.

Lu Ming had a headache. Yesterday, he noticed that the young man was talented and hence decided to dupe him into joining the association. He never expected that he would be a young master!

It was not a big problem, duping him.

The issue was what if anything happened and his father came to make trouble for him…

The Card Creator Grandmaster might be friendly and nice now, saying that he would leave the child with him, and he could go ahead to teach him or beat him if he was disobedient, however if anything went wrong, he would be in trouble!

Therefore…

Lu Ming thought about it and felt that it was better that he put the young man on the Card Creator assessment list.

Anyway…

The others were unaware.

Cough.

This was decided!

In that case, there was room for changes in the future.

“Haoran. Don’t add him to the association yet,” Lu Ming reminded him.

“Understood.”

Li Haoran nodded slightly.

He knew that his master placed a lot of importance on the system of the assessment as well as whether a disciple was allowed to join them. This showed that his master was assessing every disciple in secret!

He was being very responsible.

“I must learn from Master,” Li Haoran said secretly.

“Oh, by the way, how talented is he?”

Lu Ming was suddenly reminded of that.

“I’m not sure.”

Li Haoran shook his head. “Like what you said, there is a big problem with our talent assessment system. He scored full marks straight away.”

“Did he score full marks for all areas?”

Lu Ming’s body suddenly stiffened.

Full score?!

Damn!

He scored full marks like Xiaobai?!

“Indeed.”

Li Haoran nodded. “According to my testing, he has the same score as Senior Sister Xiaobai… Of course, there must be a difference in their limits, but we are unable to detect it.”

This was crazy!

Lu Ming turned silent.

He was indeed the child of a Card Creator Grandmaster!

The genes…

The talent…

He was almost as good as Xiaobai!

“I guess we have to hurry to develop a talent assessment system!”

Lu Ming looked grim.

The ancient talent assessment system had an increasing difference with theirs. It would not do that every assessment churned out full marks! Therefore, they had to have a new talent assessment system!

Of course.

What was more terrible was that…

The few of them did not even have a full score when it was a ten-point system in the past…

It was hard to explain in a few words.

Fortunately, the Restart Array was activated in Qing Ming City. If it was in Tian Du City, the talents would drive up the score in one go!

“Soon.”

Li Haoran was certain. “Everything is ready. We can start once admissions have ended.”

“Very good.”

Lu Ming nodded slightly.

In that case…

They would worry about the teenager later.

They would wait until they knew his exact talents before they welcomed him into the association. It would be troublesome if the association was dragged down again!

Hence…

Lu Ming led him to prepare the things needed for joining the association.

Well…

The birth of a card spirit and choosing a card spirit.

At the entrance.

They encountered a familiar figure. A teenager in black was cultivating. He looked at the teenager in white.

Idiot!

This was the first thought the teenager in black had. Why would someone be dressed in white? How could they perform tasks at night?! That was too bright! One look and he could tell the teenager was out of his mind!

Idiot!

This was the first thought the teenager in white had. Why would someone be dressed in black? How could they perform tasks in the daytime?! That was too bright! One look and he could tell the teenager was out of his mind!

Shush!

They fixed their burning gazes on each other before looking away.

Lu Ming cast a doubtful glance at them. Why were they staring at each other affectionately in broad daylight?!

The spirit body department.

Lu Ming left after leaving the teenager at the department.

The spirit department would teach him everything he had to know about a card spirit.

Of course.

Before leaving, Lu Ming gave his instructions. “Please accompany him when he goes to the spirit body department to choose a spirit body. He is still young, If he messes around, it might affect his development.”

“I am already grown up! I have gone through puberty! All my hair is grown!”

The teenager in white was furious.

Could he not bring up puberty?!

He was already grown up!

“Okay.”

Everyone understood.

He was indeed the president. He was very considerate.

…

Right then…

Lu Ming had no time to waste on them.

This was because the real boss was on the way there.

At the entrance of the association.

Lu Ming had just arrived and it shook too much that he could not open his eyes.

Ss——

The senior had a very good figure… Oh, her clothes were very white.

“Greetings, Senior Qiu,” Lu Ming said respectfully.

He maintained his gaze at eye level. Through scientific method, he made sure that his gaze remained on Qiu Shuyi’s face to show respect for her.

“Long time no see.”

Qiu Shuyi gave him a big hug.

O huo~

o(╯□╰)o Lu Ming had an embarrassed look on his face. All his efforts had gone down the drain!

“Senior.”

Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.

“What?”

Qiu Shuyi was unhappy. “Are you looking down on me as well?”

Ss——

Lu Ming gasped a breath of fresh air.

Goodness!

How many times has it been today?

The teenager in white, the Card Creator Grandmaster, and now Qiu Shuyi. All of them kept saying the same thing to him! Did the big shots derive pleasure from behaving in this manner?!

“Of course not.”

Lu Ming smiled bitterly.

“Let’s go.

“Let’s talk inside.”

Qiu Shuyi pulled Lu Ming along with him.

In fact, she was feeling very happy. It had been very long since she had a good chat with someone. Lu Ming was Lu Yan’s brother. She felt very reassured.

Hence…

They went into Lu Ming’s room.

…

At the association.

All the disciples fixed their eyes on the two of them.

→_→

Wow!

They did not know that their master had such a close relationship with a female.

Instinctively….

They looked toward Senior Sister Xiaobai.

“What’s the matter?”

Xiaobai smiled sweetly. “Today, all of you will sit for an additional exam on spirit body classification.”

The disciples wailed and whined.

True enough.

They knew that this would happen!

“Hum.”

Xiaobai ignored them.

She looked at Qiu Shuyi’s figure and looked at hers, feeling discouraged. Distress was evident on her face. When would she grow up…

She had been drinking papaya milk for a very long time.

It seemed to be useless.

A bunch of lies!

Well…

It was so annoying!

Xiaobai looked sorrowful.

There were more and more beautiful ladies around her master and the number kept increasing. In the past, the ladies were only slightly more beautiful and had longer legs, right now, it was worse…

Oo…

What should she do?

Suddenly…

Xiaobai swept her doubtful gaze over the card that was suspended next to her. “Were you secretly smiling just now?”

→_→

Xiao-Xiaobai was innocent.

“Humph!

“You must have been secretly smiling. Go to the corner to reflect on your mistakes.”

Xiaobai waved her hands.

Shush!

Xiao-Xiaobai could only squat in the corner helplessly.

At this time there was a flash of light and a figure appeared. Xiaobai swept her gaze over it and noticed that it was her master’s card. It was the stupid Xiao-Xiaojian.

“Xiaobai.”

Cough, cough.

“We should not take anger out on the innocent…

“Xiao-Xiaobai doesn’t understand all of this.”

Cough, cough.

“I know what you’re worried about. I am not being boastful, but I know Lu Ming very well. It is very easy to win his affection! Look…

“I have brought a book for you.”

Xiao-Xiaojian was proud of itself.

He had gone all out to help Xiao-Xiaobai!

These days, he searched the Internet and finally found this long-lost book. It must be suitable for Xiaobai. She might be able to win Lu Ming’s affection with that!

Well…

Shush!

He handed the book to her.

“Huh?”

Xiaobai had a puzzled look as she stared at the book in front of her.

The name of the book was…

“A Lolita’s Guide To Winning Men’s Affection”.

Xiaobai was silent.
