The sunset was blood-orange in color.
Lu Li returned home.
Mother Lu had already prepared dinner. Father Lu and Lu Ling had also returned home long ago; they were waiting for Lu Li to come back for dinner.
Lu Li looked at the table full of delicious food. It was abnormally sumptuous, but he had a difficult expression on his face.
He had eaten Shumai with Ru just now, Lu Li had even deliberately left some space in his stomach for dinner. However, on the way back, his stomach naturally felt full.
Now even though the table was full of food, he didn’t have much of an appetite.
However, he still insisted on finishing dinner with whatever space was left in his stomach.
While eating, mother Lu began to ask Lu Li and Lu Ling about the results of today’s physical examination.
“96 points, three points more than last month.”
Lu Ling was the first to take out her physical examination form, she said, “I told you it was still early. There’s no need to go every month. It’s two to three points per month. Today, our class teacher also said that we can give it to her once a semester.”
Mother Lu took it and looked at it, then passed it to Father Lu.
“You should still go for the physical examination. Isn’t a three-point increase a lot? Back then, your brother’s increase was two points by two points. It was only in 12th grade that it started to increase a little more.”
“I’m different from him.”
Lu Ling muttered.
Whether it was her cultural study or her cultivation results, they were much better than Lu Li’s.
Lu Li had been testing the edge of the passing line in every exam. On the other hand, she’s steadily scoring around 80 points in every subject.
She was also a little proud of herself.
When Lu Li heard this, he could not help but laugh. He reached out and pinched her face, which still had some baby fat, and said, “What do you mean? What do you mean by ‘different from me’?”
“AH, it hurts! Let go!”
Lu Ling slapped Lu Li’s hand away in pain. “Why are you pinching me? It’s the truth!”
“Li, don’t bully your sister.”
Mother Lu couldn’t help but crossly told him off when she saw this.
Seeing that the two of them had stopped, she asked Lu Li, “Then Li, what about your results?”
Hearing this, father Lu and Lu Ling couldn’t help but look at Lu Li.
Lu Li also reached into his pocket and took out his physical examination results. He said, “I’ve increased quite a lot this month. It’s about forty points.”
“Around forty points?”
Lu Li’s words were so shocking that everyone in the family was stunned.
Father and mother Lu looked at each other, but Lu Ling had a look of disbelief. “How could you lie about such a thing! Let me see.”
Lu Ling swiped the report from her brother’s hands.
After taking a look, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes immediately widened. “How is that possible?!”
“How’s what?”
Father and mother Lu also didn’t quite believe Lu Li’s words.
They all knew what it meant to increase one’s Spiritual Power Index by more than 40 points in a month.
The last student in Rao Shui Town who increased his Spiritual Power Index by 40 points in a month had already been admitted to one of the top ten schools in Huaxia, the Divine Wind Martial University, last year!
What was the concept of entering Divine Wind Martial University?
The students that were nurtured there could all become spirit cultivators, and they were all pillars representing the country. Later on, they all lived a life of money and fame.
Lu Li had only increased by around five points in the past month. How could it suddenly increase by more than forty points?
However, when mother Lu took the test results from her daughter, she couldn’t help but be shocked when she saw it.
“Old Lu, look.”
Father Lu also saw it. The stern expression on his face turned into a pleasantly surprised one. He said, “198 points. Last month, I remember it was 158 points, right?”
“That’s right.”
Mother Lu couldn’t help but look at Lu Li and ask, “Li, how did you do it?”
“Is there something wrong with the testing equipment?”
Lu Ling couldn’t help but question.
When Lu Li heard this, he looked at his sister with a wicked smile and asked in return, “Do you think it’s possible?”
“It’s possible. A machine could always break.”
Seeing that Lu Ling was a little unconvinced and stubborn about it, Lu Li smiled even more happily. He said, “Then let’s bet that if it isn’t the machine’s problem, you’re not allowed to eat snacks for a month.”
Lu Li knew that Lu Ling had a snack addiction.
Whenever there was a snack at home, Lu Ling could always finish it in a few days unless it was something she didn’t like.
The problem was that Lu Li didn’t like to eat snacks that she didn’t like either.
So when the two were young, they often fought with each other because they didn’t share the snacks equally.
When Lu Ling heard this, she was also a little stumped. She naturally didn’t want to believe that Lu Li had such a high Spiritual Power Index, but what if?
She didn’t want to be deprived of snacks for a month!
“It’s true.”
At this moment, father Lu spoke first.
Father Lu looked at Lu Li’s physical examination list and said, “The Spiritual Power Index may be wrong, but the other physical examination numbers can’t be. From the numbers, Li’s Spiritual Power Index is indeed around 198.”
With an increase in the Spiritual Power Index, the physical fitness of the body would also increase. This was something that Lu Li had also noticed.
Father Lu was experienced and knowledgeable regarding this matter. Lu Ling could not refute his words.
No matter what, she was happy for Lu Li that her brother had become stronger.
However, when she saw Lu Li’s smug smile, her happiness was swept away. She was so annoyed that the baby fat on her face became even wider from her pouting.
“That’s great!”
Mother Lu’s face was full of joy as she said, “Our Feng City’s Han Jiang Martial University only needed 200 points of Spiritual Power Index last year. Doesn’t that mean that our Li can take the Han Jiang Martial University Exam?”
Hearing that, Papa Lu smiled unnaturally and said, “Yes, as long as he reaches 200 points in the next three months, he can get in.”
“Cheh, Han Jiang Martial University is the worst Spirit Martial University in Feng City. And it was very expensive! The tuition fee for a year is 100,000 dollars!”
Lu Ling couldn’t help but try to damper the mood.
Of course, she was targeting Lu Li. She just couldn’t stand Lu Li’s smug smile.
“100,000 is fine. As long as Li can get into a Spirit Martial University, it’s worth it no matter how much it costs. Right, Old Lu?”
Lu Li’s mother couldn’t stop smiling as she asked Father Lu beside her.
“Yes, yes, haha.”
Father Lu’s smile was a little forced.
However, mother Lu was immersed in joy and didn’t notice the change in her husband’s expression.
Lu Li noticed the change in his father’s expression.
He couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong, Dad?”
“Uh, nothing. I’m happy for you.”
“Of course he’s happy. Our Lu family finally produced a Martial University student. If your grandfather and the others find out about this, they’ll be extremely happy! No, I’ll call your grandparents now and tell them to thank the temple for granting our wishes.”
Mother Lu stood up with a smile and went to get her phone.
Father Lu also stood up and said, “I’m stuffed. You guys eat. I’m going out for a walk.”
After saying that, he also went out. Lu Li could see that as his father went out, he took out a cigarette from his pocket.
Lu Li remembered that his father usually only smoked when he went to work and when his relatives came over.
He usually didn’t smoke when he was at home.
Was he troubled?
Lu Li couldn’t help but think of an incident that happened in his previous life. Something happened that required a lot of money, causing Lu Li to borrow money from his relatives to pay for his college tuition.
Could it be that he’s worried because of that incident?
