By the mountains, by the sea, there was… This had become Hai Gongzi’s biggest headache. If it were an ordinary person from normal times, they would start singing along. But Hai Gongzi had never heard of it before…
Lu Shu was rather terrible as well. Although he could bring Hai Gongzi out on his own initiative, for some reason he did not allow Hai Gongzi to go back into the sword. This was very awkward. Hai Gongzi probably knew this as well. Thus, everyday when Lu Shu practiced his sword, he would humiliate Lu Shu and make Lu Shu feel very uncomfortable.
Hai Gongzi could not find an answer. He felt that he could not let it end just like this. Tomorrow, he would harshly criticize Lu Shu. This way, he would be able to remove the hate he harbored.
The next day before dawn, Hai Gongzi arrived as planned. While Lu Shu was practicing, he heard Hai Gongzi lightly say,
Your progress is very fast, but you have probably only reached 10% of my strength. Your aptitude may be very good for a human, but the human race as a whole is a sorry bunch.
Lu Shu did not know whether to laugh or to cry.
I’ve heard.
Afterwards, he continued practicing. In the end, he did not receive any distress points from Hai Gongzi even after waiting for a long time…
Hm?
Lu Shu was dumbfounded.
Hai Gongzi, did your OCD get cured overnight?
Hai Gongzi did not care about him. He continued speaking,
Did you realize that your actions are too stiff! You are too clumsy, too clumsy!
Um…
Lu Shu felt that something was not right. It didn’t make sense. How did his OCD get cured overnight? That was not scientifically possible!
It couldn’t be that Hai Gongzi was faking his OCD yesterday. His distress points were not fake either!
As Lu Shu was pondering, Hai Gongzi laughed loudly and returned to the Cheng Ying sword with a pleased expression on his face.
Lu Shu was suddenly dumbfounded. Did Hai Gongzi listen in on his plans? But that made no sense! Lu Shu was lost in thought. Hai Gongzi could humiliate him, but he could not humiliate Hai Gongzi. Lu Shu could not take this!
That night, Lu Xiaoyu sent a message to Lu Shu informing him of her safety. Lu Shu was somewhat curious. He did not know why Lu Xiaoyu had been earning much fewer distress points than before.
Beating around the bush did not give him any clues. On the other hand, Lu Xiaoyu was trying to figure out why Lu Shu had always asked what she was doing soon after anything happened…
Of course, Lu Shu could not say anything. He could not let Lu Xiaoyu know that he was earning distress points through her.
In reality, Lu Xiaoyu was doing well in the training. From the start when she was at odds with her classmates, to now when she had established trust, Lu Xiaoyu had been accepted to this organization.
During actual combat, the commanding officers often used the boys to make the girls train harder. But now, the tables had turned. They now used Lu Xiaoyu to teach the boys how to fight.
The boys in training were even somewhat annoyed. This batch of girls were just too full of vigor!
No one had thought that this group of girls would completely change from their former weak selves. Not only were they very strong, they also particularly liked using unusual tactics during actual combat…
Lu Xiaoyu had always rejected strangers. This was because she had naturally developed a sense of self protection growing up. But after she had sensed others’ good intentions, she would slowly lower her defenses and not be as hostile as before.
When she first met Li Xianyi, she had verbally attacked him and made him feel very uncomfortable. But as time passed, she was no longer as rude to Li Xianyi.
This was somewhat similar to her current situation. Although the relationship between Lu Xiaoyu and her classmates was unlike that of her relationship with Li Xianyi, Lu Xiaoyu was certainly less offensive to others.
The girls had fewer complaints about Lu Xiaoyu. Recently, the actual combats had been stopped and were replaced by training on military strategies. This was why the distress points that she had earned, even from the boys, had dropped by a significant amount.
Unknowingly, Lu Xiaoyu had indeed convinced the public…
She felt that the next time she saw Li Yixiao, she would get Li Yixiao to ask Nie Ting whether she could apply for the position of Heavenly King…
Lu Shu felt that this time, Lu Xiaoyu had enjoyed herself to the fullest. Lu Shu put down his phone and continued singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.
He sat cross-legged in his room. The tens of thousands of stars in the Milky Way appeared in the Luo City sky.
If one could see it, it was much more beautiful than the aurora lights.
Before dawn, Lu Shu once again drew the Cheng Ying sword from the Seal of Lands and headed to the backyard. Training was like a tall mountain. One had to put in their all before they could reach the peak and enjoy the scenery.
Ordinary people felt that Lu Shu was simply a lucky person who was able to undergo awakenings. But in reality, Lu Shu had never doubted that one day, he would eventually succeed, because his 17 years of living made him understand one thing. You had to work much harder than others if you wanted to live a luxurious lifestyle.
Li Xianyi had commented that when he was Lu Shu’s age, he would still slack off. Li Yixiao had also been chased out by his master because he was too fond of playing around. But from the beginning, Li Yixiao should have given up seeking a life of pleasure.
Lu Shu slowly practiced swing by swing. He was at full concentration.
Hai Gongzi emerged from the Cheng Ying sword and silently looked at Lu Shu. He was somewhat touched. Out of all those who had owned the Cheng Ying sword, Lu Shu was probably the most diligent and bold of them all.
But as he silently praised Lu Shu, Hai Gongzi closed off his thoughts and said coldly,
Indeed, you should practice your sword this early every day. Your diligence can make up for your clumsiness.
Hai Gongzi was silently criticizing that Lu Shu was far too clumsy. Lu Shu could not hear anything anyway. He did not have to be afraid of how Lu Shu would react.
Suddenly, Lu Shu retrieved a handful of green beans from the Seal of Lands and threw it on the ground. The green beans were randomly scattered across the ground in close proximity.
Ah ah ah!
Hai Gongzi was going crazy.
Why do you have to do such a thing?!
From Ao Hai’s distress, +999!
As Hai Gongzi was speaking, he squatted on the ground and picked up the green beans. Hai Gongzi did not think that Lu Shu would prepare green beans in advance! He did not want to see these green beans, but he could not take it any more!
The atmosphere in the backyard became strange. Lu Shu was slowly practicing his sword while bearing Hai Gongzi’s long-winded taunts, while Hai Gongzi was squatting and picking up green beans as he continually attacked Lu Shu with his words…
Lu Shu silently laughed. Come, let’s harm each other!
How much longer could Lu Shu bear being taunted by Hai Gongzi? If he did not defeat Hai Gongzi, he would have to bear his taunts everyday!
A day or two was fine, but if there was someone belittling him while he was practicing all 365 days of the year, Lu Shu felt that there had to be some rational solution to this problem!
Between him and Hai Gongzi, one of them had to surrender!
