Chapter 32: 032 Vacation Ends

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

31st August.

Quancheng City, Ailang Training Center. In Room No. 037, a particularly fierce battle was under way.

The two sides in the battle were respectively Lu Wu’s Skeleton, who had undergone rigorous training for a month, and Pang Tutu’s piglet, who loved to slack.

Well, obviously, it’s time for “domestic violence” that we all loved to watch.

This was the 66th time this month that Lu Wu and Skeleton had challenged Tutu and her piglet.

But the anxious atmosphere of this battle was 99% provided by Lu Wu!

The whole training room was filled with Lu Wu’s tense and anxious voice.

“Skeleton, use Charge, close the gap with Piglet!”

“Dodge quick!”

“Use Block!”

“Stand up!”

　　…

In the room, Skeleton followed Lu Wu’s instructions and tried particularly hard.

But from Pang Tutu’s persepective.

Well, when the ‘camera’ turned to Pang Tutu, the view was particularly narrow, and it could hardly fit Pang Tutu in.

Obviously, Tutu became chubby again after a month.

Although she had not reached 100 kg as before, she was still around 80 to 90 kg now. The main reason why Lu Wu so intensely wanted Skeleton to beat up Piglet was because of Tutu’s current body shape.

When Tutu lost weight previously, Lu Wu fell in love with her beauty.

He was even thinking that he did not have to repay Tutu by helping her improve, he was willing to directly repay her with his body!

But while he was still hesitating, Tutu became Pang Tutu again.

This alone was enough to make Lu Wu depressed, but what made Lu Wu even more dispirited was the progress of Tutu and her piglet in the past month.

Within one month, Lu Wu enhanced his Skeleton’s strength to 1 star, and trained the three basic skills of [Charge], [Dodge] and [Block] to “Proficient”. The most commonly used [Charge] was almost reaching the level of “Mastery”.

Since Skeleton’s combat style had taken shape, the improvement could be said to be huge!

But Skeleton’s improvement was still far from that of Tutu’s piglet.

The discrepancy could be seen even without looking at the attributes page. It was already obvious seeing their battle.

Lu Wu was very nervous and agitated as he shouted and directed, while Skeleton used all its efforts in the fight. On the other hand was Tutu, who had never been particularly courageous, and her gentle character meant that she was unable to shout like Lu Wu.

In addition, she had gained weight again during this month, which seemed to make Lu Wu unhappy. Therefore, she had been trying hard these few days to make herself invisible, so she dared not speak out and left Piglet to play around however it wished.

On the pig’s side, the pig’s character was particularly similar to Tutu in some ways.

Lazy, and loved to eat!

They had no passion in fighting. While Lu Wu and Skeleton spared no effort in the fight, Piglet spared no effort in putting them off.

It seemed to be leisurely putting earth spikes and moving a few steps away from Skeleton. But even so, Lu Wu and Skeleton couldn’t do anything about it.

The battle seemed to be under Piglet’s control from the start, but Lu Wu and Skeleton finally seized an opportunity to successfully break Piglet’s defence.

“Now, Skeleton, use [Charge]!”

Under Lu Wu’s order, Skeleton charged towards the piglet sparing no effort. It waved the baseball bat in its hand and was about to send Piglet flying. But this pig yawned, and its giant nose nudged the bat, and the battle had ended again.

“We’ve lost again!”

Well, the word ‘again’ expressed all their misery.

Lu Wu and Skeleton had worked hard for an entire month, but they had never won a single game.

But Lu Wu himself was aware that this would happen.

Pang Tutu’s pig was indeed very powerful!

　　…

Name: Piglet

Strength: 1 star

Quality: Iron (Enhance) (One option)

Class: Earth

Status: Healthy (It’s hungry, it wants to eat roasted yam.)

Comradeship skill: Bonded growth (A special comradeship skill that is awakened through growth in intimacy, able to improve the quality and strength of the summoned beast through its bond with its summoner.)

Normal skills: Enlarge (Proficient) (Able to enlarge its body.)

Earth Spike (Proficient) (Basic skill of the Earth Class)

Charge (Novice)

Weakness: No obvious weaknesses

Comment: How is it? As the one with a golden finger, have you experienced the despair of being beaten by the lucky one?!

　　…

This was the attributes of Piglet after a months’ training.

And even this was based on the fact that the comradeship skills between Tutu and Piglet had not been triggered. If it was triggered again, its strength would surely soar for the second time.

Compared to Tutu’s piglet, Lu Wu really had a very strong urge to throw away his Skeleton.

In the past month, Lu Wu had understood quite deeply why everyone despised Skeleton so much.

Because of its poor quality, its growth was slow, and the cost-performance ratio of training was extremely low.

Both had one star, both had mastered three combat skills, and both had trained for a month. However, Skeleton worked much harder. Both were [Iron], though Skeleton had (pseudo). So the difference between them should not be too great.

But when the two summoned beasts were put together, Skeleton was completely overwhelmed by the pig.

This was a big blow to Lu Wu!

He really couldn’t understand, shouldn’t he be the one with a golden finger? Why was it him who got defeated so easily?

This did not follow the script he thought he received!

Didn’t he make up his mind to let Tutu fly on his coattails? Now, why did Lu Wu have a particularly strong premonition that he’d ride on Tutu’s coattails instead?

Lu Wu, as the person who had the golden finger, had good moral values, and he swore he’d never be a kept man. And he could not stand such unfairness.

“It seems that I’ll have to speed up my research on that stuff!

I can’t sleep tonight, I’ll have to stay up all night to get that thing done, so I can put it into training tomorrow morning!

If I get that done, Skeleton’s battle efficiency will definitely soar!”

Lu Wu, who had been defeated countless times, was still full of enthusiasm. He had already made up his mind to pull an all-nighter tonight.

Fortunately, Tutu on his side kindly reminded him in a low voice.

“Um… Lu Wu, school reopens tomorrow!”

“School reopens?”

Lu Wu was caught off guard.

To be honest, Lu Wu had had a very fulfilling summer vacation. If it weren’t for Tutu’s reminder, Lu Wu had almost forgotten about it.

But what Lu Wu was thinking about now was not just the beginning of school, but also the class division that came with school reopening.

Lu Wu had paid much attention to this matter. For the class division, Lu Wu had prepared a whole summer vacation. At this time, thinking of the class division, Lu Wu’s mindset towards this was naturally different.

“Since school is starting tomorrow, I should go to bed early tonight, I should not stay up too late.

Otherwise, if I do not perform well in the placement assessment due to staying up late and cannot be assigned to the special class, then it’s just…”

Speaking of this, Lu Wu paused. He suddenly realised something was not quite right. After carefully considering, Lu Wu discovered the problem. “Even if I can’t be assigned into the special class, the consequence doesn’t seem to be that serious!”
