Chapter 24: 024 The Professional Trainer’s Assessment

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Just within a month.

The person that Lu Wu initially wanted to annoy started annoying him instead.

Which was why Lu Wu started thinking that a life with cheats was just dry and boring. He even became a little arrogant.

Luckily, his boring, arrogant days soon come to an end.

As his deal with Li Kai started and when Lu Wu started getting to know more about the summoned beast trainers, the boredom slowly disappeared.

Well, it had to be mentioned that Lu Wu was actually extremely disappointed with Li Kai.

When Lu Wu first met Li Kai, he really thought that Li Kai was a boss and Lu Wu even imagined Li Kai to be one of the best summoner beast trainers in the world.

This was what Lu Wu would have expected because wasn’t this how it was written in those teleportation novels?!

However, after some time, Lu Wu felt that Li Kai was indeed a summoned beast trainer, but his expertise was not as high as what Lu Wu expected.

It was just minutes ago that Li Kai told Lu Wu the painful truth — Li Kai was just a beginner who hadn’t even passed the professional summoned beast trainer assessment.

Lu Wu thought that Li Kai would be the key that could open his opportunity in becoming professional summoned beast trainer, but in the end, Li Kai wasn’t even one himself!

Lu Wu was devastated!

The feeling of accomplishment that Lu Wu felt after impressing Li Kai collapsed in an instant.

But not everything was as bad as Lu Wu thought it was.

Lu Wu at least did get some new information from Li Kai about being a professional summoned beast trainer.

One of the most important things that Lu Wu found out was that there was an assessment that he had to pass in order to be one.

He also found out that if a high schooler like him managed to pass the assessment, there was a very high chance for him to be accepted into the summoner’s universities.

Lu Wu’s eyes lit up with excitement when he heard about this.

To him, this was like a shortcut, or instead, it gave him a sense of assurance.

Although Lu Wu did have the cheats and Lu Wu was quite confident that he would be accepted, what if something bad happened and he lost the chance of getting into any of the summoner’s universities?!

Also, in the past one month, Lu Wu finally had more detailed information about the summoner’s universities.

He already knew that the students that got accepted into the summoner’s universities were divided according to their skills.

For Senior Snowman who only made it to the top 27 in the National’s League, she obviously went to the weakest division amongst all the summoner’s universities.

As for Lu Wu, who had all the ultimate cheats, his target was obviously to get to the top division of the summoner’s universities.

Therefore, when Lu Wu found out about the assessment, he decided that he would do both the assessment and the National’s League!

When he made this decision, there were flames burning faintly in his eyes. Li Kai who was next to him saw the passion burning in Lu Wu’s eyes and immediately asked if he could help.

He ,Li Kai, had been doing the assessment for the past five years and although he has never passed the assessment, he was still very experienced. Therefore, what he was trying to say actually was — I, Li Kai, requesting to be carried!

As for this, Lu Wu wasn’t very happy about it.

Well, he couldn’t agree just because Li Kai asked him to! Given that Li Kai did not even bat an eye at Lu Wu when he first came to the store.

But as soon as Li Kai threw out all the books that he had along with the question papers that he had prepared over the past five years and even offered to increase Lu Wu’s salary to 50,000 yuan a month, Lu Wu decided that he was up for the job since Li Kai even mentioned that Lu Wu could take any ingredient he wanted from the store.

Then, this was how the deal between Li Kai and Lu Wu suddenly became twisted.

Initially, Lu Wu was the one who wanted to use Li Kai as a stepping stone for him to become a professional summoned beast trainer, but in the end, Lu Wu became the stepping stone for Li Kai instead.

Lu Wu was speechless at how the roles changed, but it did make him arrogant as well. It felt like his dreams were about to come true very soon.

Hmm.. speaking of which, he just remembered that he hadn’t done anything for Skeleton yet.

If he couldn’t even enhance his own summoned beast, how would he become a professional summoned beast trainer?

As Lu Wu got to work, he borrowed Li Kai’s studio and asked for some ingredients. Then, he started working on Skeleton.

Lu Wu didn’t plan on enhancing Skeleton at the store. The reason why he borrowed Li Kai’s studio was because he wanted to prepare the ingredients for it.

[Skeleton’s training manual 3.0] needed more ingredients compared to 2.0.

Other than cow’s bone and blood, he added ingredients like Bone Grass and Withered Roots. All these ingredients had to be processed beforehand and since Lu Wu didn’t have the tool back at home, he had to do it at Li Kai’s studio.

After spending some time in the studio, the ingredients were finally ready. Then, Lu Wu called Pang Tutu over to the store so that she could help him bring back the ingredients.

As soon as he called, Pang Tutu arrived at the store with a pink scooter within minutes. 

When Lu Wu saw the scooter, he turned around and looked at Skeleton who was acting like a dummy. Then, he looked at the things that he was holding onto and couldn’t help but feel sad for himself.

“Are you sure that this thing can carry all of us?”

Pang Tutu looked around and then lowered her head.

In the end, Li Kai was the one who offered to send them home. He sent Lu Wu home in his car along with Skeleton and the rest of the ingredients that Lu Wu had processed in the studio earlier that day.

As they reached Lu Wu’s house, Li Kai was still expecting Lu Wu to offer for him to stay.

He knew that the ingredients that Lu Wu took were for enhancing Skeleton.

Li Kai couldn’t resist the temptation and really wanted to watch the entire process. However, Lu Wu did not offer for him to stay but instead told Pang Tutu to stay for dinner.

It wasn’t necessarily because Lu Wu wanted to hide things from Li Kai. It was just because his room was too small and it definitely wouldn’t fit so many people.

After bidding goodbye to Li Kai, Lu Wu started working in his room.

The entire process was the same as 2.0. He would have to first cook all the ingredients in a large pot, pour it over into a huge bucket and then put Skeleton into it before adding the cow’s blood.

Then, the only thing left to do was wait.

But Pang Tutu’s piglet was a little more troublesome.

As soon as it smelt the broth that Lu Wu was making, there was water coming out of its mouth. That pig kept wanting to take a plunge into the pot and Lu Wu had no other choice but to bring Pang Tutu out of the room.

As soon as both of them walked into the living room, Lu Haikong who was talking to his daughter started talking to Pang Tutu instead.

“Come here, take a seat. This spoilt brat here must have been bothering you all day! Look at how skinny you’ve become. I’ll get Auntie Lee to make your favourite sweet and sour pork for dinner later!”

When Lu Haikong was talking to Pang Tutu, he had a gentle smile on his face, but as soon as he turned to Lu Wu, his face turned into a fierce bull and said, “You! Why are you still sitting so comfortably? Go get Pang Tutu a cup of water!”
