Chapter 95: Mystic Realm Pass

Lu Wu was in a hurry regarding the Mystic Realm. After all, the High School League was scheduled for March or April of the following year, and it was already December. There wasn't much time left until the league's commencement.

At most, Lu Wu had five months left.

Five months seemed like a long time, but the figure he was chasing was moving fast!

Currently, his little skeleton was only at Rank 2, while that tall-legged girl had already reached the Elite level.

If given another five months, who knew how much that tall-legged girl would improve? Lu Wu was anxious, wishing he could dive into the Mystic Realm the very next day.

But when the next day arrived, Lu Wu realized he couldn't even leave.

Ever since early morning, there had been a constant stream of visitors to his home.

From the Quancheng Cup organizers to the school, and even his friendly neighbors, as well as the Professional Cultivator Training Center from Quancheng, they all came in waves.

Lu Wu had no choice. The previous day, Wang Dashan had blatantly exposed Lu Wu's secrets at the competition venue.

At that time, those who were paying attention noticed Lu Wu's discontent.

The Quancheng Cup organizers were already investigating and pondering how to address Lu Wu's dissatisfaction.

Initially, the organizers didn't consider Lu Wu's unhappiness as a significant issue, but they also didn't take it too lightly.

They planned to send some small gifts, and that would be the end of it.

But then they heard that Zhao Kai Ming, a big shot from the Fucheng Professional Center, had rushed to Lu Wu's house the same night.

Upon hearing this, the Quancheng Cup organizers broke out in a cold sweat.

They didn't know the relationship between Zhao Kai Ming and Lu Wu, nor the purpose of Zhao's visit.

What if he came to take charge of Lu Wu's affairs?

Even if he didn't come for that, the fact that he visited Lu Wu the same night indicated a close relationship.

So, the Quancheng Cup organizers held an emergency meeting that night and became the first to visit Lu Wu's house early the next morning.

After conveying their apologies, they left Lu Wu with a card.

At first, Lu Wu thought it was a bank card, but later he realized it was a half-year Mystic Realm Pass from the Quancheng Cup organizers.

This pass allowed Lu Wu to bring two people to freely enter and exit various Mystic Realms near Quancheng for half a year.

Obviously, the Quancheng Cup organizers had put in effort and resources.

The gift they presented was exactly what Lu Wu needed at the moment.

After receiving this generous gift, Lu Wu's impression of the Quancheng Cup organizers improved significantly.

Lu Wu, known for his broad-mindedness, immediately forgave them for the previous incident.

He even exchanged friend codes with the visiting organizers, establishing a harmonious and friendly relationship.

After seeing off the Quancheng Cup organizers, the second wave of visitors arrived.

The second wave, or rather the first wave that caught up, was actually the Hao family.

They happened to meet the Quancheng Cup organizers and let them go first. Once the organizers left, they proceeded to visit Lu Wu.

This visit was meant to apologize, but they clearly underestimated Lu Wu's broad-mindedness.

Lu Wu was renowned for his open-mindedness, and he wouldn't hold such a minor issue against them.

He suggested handling the matter according to the established procedures.

The Hao family was dissatisfied with the transaction, so they refunded the money. As for the damage to his reputation, Lu Wu directly reported it to the Professional Center, leaving the judgment to them.

Coincidentally, the third wave of visitors was from the Quancheng Breeder Professional Center. Lu Wu handed the matter over to them to handle.

The fourth wave of visitors from Sanzong Middle School arrived soon after.

Compared to the previous two groups, the representatives from Quan Cheng Professional Center and Sanzong Middle School had more straightforward intentions.

One group wanted Lu Wu to be affiliated with Quan Cheng Professional Center, while the other group was there to honor Lu Wu.

Lu Wu politely declined the first group's offer, even though they had promised benefits. He genuinely didn't have the time.

As for the second group, Lu Wu readily accepted, and while he was at it, he requested leave for himself and Dudu.

With his upcoming plans to visit the Mystic Realm, it was natural that he couldn't attend school.

When Lu Wu mentioned taking leave, one of the school representatives, Li Chun, had a complicated expression. Her student had been absent for most of the past month, and now, just as he was about to return to school, he was asking for another one or two months off.

If this were any other student, they would have been granted the leave without question. But Lu Wu was no ordinary student.

One Six One Nine Book Bar One Look Wu One Correct Version!

Despite Lu Wu's family skeleton being only Rank 2, and his strength possibly not even matching Lin Jianying's, Lu Wu's status was exceptional! He was a Super Genius Breeder, highly regarded by the upper management of Fu Cheng Professional Center. He had dozens of Professional Breeder disciples under his wing!

This status made Lu Wu a prominent figure in Quan Cheng, and even the Principal of Sanzong Middle School would show him the utmost respect.

As for the students of the Elite Class", there was no need to even mention them; they were on a whole different level.

Just from this fact alone, Ye Qingsnow had essentially been humiliated by Lu Wu.

When Lu Wu requested leave, how could the school possibly refuse? And how dare they refuse? Li Ruyu, however, had some reservations about Lu Wu's one or two months leave, but upon learning that Lu Wu was taking Dudu to the Mystic Realm, she had no objections.

Indeed, Li Ruyu wasn't aware that Lu Wu was going to the Mystic Realm, and she had been busy all day, attending to various visitors.

She was a bit tired, but her mood was elated.

Her son had made her proud. Just yesterday, he had signed a guaranteed admission contract with Jiangnan University, and today, many visitors came to offer gifts and congratulations.

Although she still couldn't fathom how her son had transformed from a primary school dropout to a super scholar in just a few months, it didn't matter. What mattered was that her son had succeeded.

Moreover, Lu Wu secretly told her that he could easily earn hundreds or thousands of dollars by taking on just one student.

In the future, Lu Wu would be able to support the family, and his father wouldn't have to travel for work two hundred days a year.

Hearing this, Li Ruyu was thrilled. After seeing the visitors off, she pulled Lu Hai Kong aside to discuss his resignation and finding a new job.

Lu Hai Kong gave Lu Wu a resentful look, his hands itching to do something.

Meanwhile, Lu Wu, after stabbing Lu Hai Kong with his words, headed straight to Dudu's house.

Dudu secretly informed him that Dudumama was at home, and this was an opportunity for Lu Wu, who wanted to take Dudu to the Mystic Realm. Today was the perfect day for it.

As expected, with Dudumama at home, Dududad's influence was easily suppressed, and Lu Wu effortlessly secured the chance to take Dudu to the Mystic Realm.

The thought of going to the Mystic Realm with Dudu, and the vision of Dudu's radiant beauty despite her weight loss, made Lu Wu's lips curve into an uncontrollable smile.

The next morning, Lu Wu eagerly dragged Dudu towards the Mystic Realm...

...

And so, which path will the little skeleton take?

Choose one:

Mage

Warrior

Archer

Chapter 96: Underground Cavern

In Li Kai's car, Lu Wu, sitting in the passenger seat, sneezed while looking down at his phone.

In the backseat, Mini Skeleton and Doudou, holding Tuan Tuan, sat side by side, both of them gazing at Lu Wu in the passenger seat. Doudou's eyes were filled with excitement and anticipation, while Mini Skeleton's gaze revealed a sense of grievance.

Ever since Lu Wu accidentally mentioned throwing Mini Skeleton away a couple of days ago, the little skeleton had been extra attentive to Lu Wu, barely playing on its phone.

It was afraid that Lu Wu might actually throw it away.

However, Mini Skeleton was still just a few months old; how could it possibly know how to please someone? During the day, its clumsy attempts at serving tea and water to Lu Wu were appreciated.

But at night, it was a different story! The little guy seemed to think that tucking Lu Wu in was an exceptional way to please him, and it repeatedly tucked him in countless times throughout the night.

This was well-intentioned, but now it was December, and the weather had turned cooler. Lu Wu nearly caught a cold due to Mini Skeleton's constant fussing with the blanket.

For the sake of his own health, Lu Wu decided to deprive Mini Skeleton of the right to tuck him in.

This made Mini Skeleton's mood sink considerably.

After all, in its eyes, losing the right to tuck Lu Wu in was equivalent to losing the entire world! Now, as it watched Tuan Tuan being held in Doudou's arms, Mini Skeleton's little emotions surged.

Although Lu Wu didn't buy a phone for Tuan Tuan, he had never hugged Mini Skeleton either! It seemed that Lu Wu truly disliked Mini Skeleton, and even his own family's Lu Wu was turning into a bad Lu Wu.

Perhaps, Mini Skeleton thought, it would soon become a skeleton that Lu Wu didn't want.

Hmm, ever since Mini Skeleton had its bone stuffed with things, its intelligence had been growing day by day, and now it was feeling wronged!

...

Lu Wu was completely unaware of the complex emotions of his little skeleton.

At this moment, he was researching the mystic realm they were about to visit.

Since they were going to a mystic realm, Lu Wu had been studying and investigating them over the past few days.

Through his research, Lu Wu discovered that mystic realms could be categorized.

Broadly, they could be divided into two types: realms controlled by humans and those not controlled by humans.

Currently, the realms accessible to ordinary people, or non-professional summoners, were mostly of the first type.

The human-controlled realms also had subcategories: completely controlled and partially controlled.

There were exploration-type realms, as well as challenge or trial-type realms.

The realm Lu Wu and his team were heading to today was not the [Great Graveyard] he had initially considered, but a human-controlled challenge or trial-type realm.

This realm, known as [Underground Cavern], was located in the mountainous area near Quancheng. It was discovered fifty years ago by a professional summoner who then sold the location to the Professional Summoner Center.

After acquiring this realm, the Professional Summoner Center modified it to some extent, transforming it into an entry-level trial-type realm specifically designed for non-professional training.

The elite class had previously trained in this realm with good results, so Lu Wu planned to spend some time there.

"We'll be staying in this realm for half a month, and during that time, I want Mini Skeleton to reach 2-star strength and Tuan Tuan to reach 1-star!"

This was Lu Wu's short-term goal.

After accomplishing this minor goal, Lu Wu contemplated his next move regarding the Great Graveyard.

Just as he voiced his thoughts, Dudu spoke up, slightly embarrassed, "Um, Tuan Tuan seems to have reached the two-star rank."

Lu Wu was taken aback and quickly inquired about the details, "When did this happen? How did she break through?"

He was genuinely interested in the aspect of his Summon Beast's breakthrough and wanted to compile effective tips for it.

However, Tuan Tuan's breakthrough method didn't seem to offer much help to Lu Wu.

"Tuan Tuan broke through right after waking up from a good morning sleep. I have no idea how it happened!" Dudu felt a bit down as she couldn't be of much help to Lu Wu.

On Lu Wu's side, seeing Dudu's disappointment and then glancing at the well-fed piglet in her arms, he couldn't help but turn and give his Mini Skeleton a stern look.

Seeing others, also beasts, able to break through just by eating and sleeping well, Lu Wu wondered why his couldn't do the same.

Mini Skeleton already felt wronged, and Lu Wu's glare only made it worse.

Additionally, for some unknown reason, it now had the urge to fight the pig.

...

After driving for about an hour, Lu Wu and his group arrived at the Underground Cavern, a Mystic Realm.

They were using the One Six One Nine Book Bar One Look Wu One Correct Version.

This was Lu Wu's first visit to a Mystic Realm, so they were immediately amazed upon arrival.

The main difference was that this Mystic Realm didn't quite match their imagination.

In Lu Wu's mind, a Mystic Realm should have a more mystical and fantastical atmosphere. However, upon reaching their destination, Lu Wu suspected that Li Kai might have taken a wrong turn and brought them to a shopping mall.

It wasn't surprising that Lu Wu had doubts, as the place indeed resembled a mall.

They parked in an underground parking lot.

Above the parking lot was a supermarket, restaurants, and various shops on the first floor.

The second floor had small stores similar to Li Kai's grocery store and some entertainment facilities; Lu Wu even spotted a cinema.

The third floor was different, as it was a residential area, or rather, a place to rent rooms.

After discovering this, Lu Wu secretly observed for a while before turning his attention away.

As Lu Wu's group surveyed the Mystic Realm, or rather, the plaza, Li Kai couldn't help but express his disagreement, "To be honest, I don't agree with calling this place a Mystic Realm. In my opinion, a place like this, completely controlled and commercialized by humans, can no longer be considered a Mystic Realm!

At best, it's just an expensive training ground.

It's almost impossible to gain any fortuitous encounters in such a Mystic Realm! Without danger and opportunities, how can this place be considered a Mystic Realm? We wouldn't even bother with a place like this ordinarily..."

Li Kai suddenly realized what he was saying and quickly changed the topic, "But there are some benefits to this place; it's safe and comfortable, especially suitable for elegant and calm breeders like Little Lu!"

Lu Wu remained indifferent to Li Kai's sudden flattery.

After all, Li Kai had merely stated the truth, and he was indeed an elegant and calm breeder.

However, Li Kai's words might not sound as pleasant to others.

"Hmph!"

A heavy, nasal-sounding cold huff came from the side, and Lu Wu looked up to see a pair of long legs...

(End of Chapter)

Chapter 97: Entering the Mystic Realm

Quancheng, at the square outside the Underground Cavern Mystic Realm.

As Lu Wu turned around, he encountered the Tall-Legged Girl for the second time.

Their eyes met, and the girl, with a cold huff, displayed an unnatural expression on her face. For a moment, she felt an impulse to dodge away from Lu Wu's gaze.

What caused this unusual reaction? Was it love?

Of course not!

The Tall-Legged Girl's unnatural expression was due to Lu Wu's current identity.

Just a few days ago, she had considered Lu Wu an interesting but average Summoner with an ordinary Summon Beast.

But now, with a single turn of her head, he had become a genius Breeder.

This sudden change in identity made the Tall-Legged Girl recall her previous condescending attitude towards Lu Wu, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of shame for the words she had spoken.

That feeling was like a primary school student holding a perfect test score, inexplicably feeling superior, and lecturing a high school student to study harder.

The Tall-Legged Girl not turning and running away was already a sign of her strong will.

Not only did she not run, but when their eyes met, this girl even retorted to Lu Wu, "Hmph, don't think that just because you're a talented Breeder, you're automatically good at being a Summoner. My words won't change. The Provincial Competition slots for Quancheng are secured by our Elite Class!

If you don't want to stop at the City Competition, you should consider taking the exam in another city!"

Without giving Lu Wu a chance to respond, the girl, with her arrogance, left. Her single ponytail swayed with each step.

Lu Wu was a bit perplexed but didn't dwell on it too much. Perhaps her relatives had arrived.

Subsequently, Lu Wu, led by Li Kai, reached the Realm Office of this Mystic Realm.

They were currently at the square outside the Mystic Realm, and to enter it, they needed to go through the office to complete the necessary procedures and pay the corresponding fees. Then, they would be assigned a time to enter the Mystic Realm.

After all, the Underground Cavern was a trial-type Mystic Realm.

With a limited area, it couldn't accommodate many people simultaneously, so arrangements were necessary.

Usually, even the fastest one would have to wait in line for half a day, and if unlucky, it could take several days to get a turn.

Fortunately, Lu Wu had a Mystic Realm Pass.

The Mystic Realm Pass was issued by the Summoner Center and granted priority access to the realms under the Summoner Center's control.

After Lu Wu presented his pass, the office staff not only swiftly completed the necessary procedures but also arranged accommodation for Lu Wu.

When asked how many rooms they needed, Lu Wu hesitated for a while before answering, "Two." (Li Kai wouldn't stay in the Mystic Realm; after dropping Lu Wu off at the office, he would return.)

Once the accommodation was settled, the staff escorted Lu Wu to a VIP room and asked them to wait for half an hour?

During their wait, the staff explained the precautions for entering the Underground Cavern?

"The Underground Cavern is a Mystic Realm modified by the Cultivator Center, ensuring a high level of safety. Before you enter, we will provide you with a Mystic Realm bracelet.

If you encounter danger or wish to exit due to special circumstances, simply press the exit button on the bracelet.

The exit button is fingerprint-locked, requiring a brief moment to unlock, maximizing the prevention of accidental exits.

Additionally, the bracelet has positioning and recording functions."

It will accurately record your performance in the Mystic Realm and provide corresponding scores.

If your score in the Mystic Realm reaches a certain level or breaks a record, you will receive rewards from us, and your name will remain on the Mystic Realm scoring board until someone surpasses you..."

The staff spent almost half an hour explaining the Mystic Realm's details to Lu Wu and the others.

The more Lu Wu listened, the more he felt like he was playing an online game.

Especially with the scoring feature, Lu Wu could tell they had put a lot of effort into this function.

There were numerous ways to earn points, including the time spent in the Mystic Realm, the number and strength of defeated Summon Beasts, and the number of stages cleared within the Mystic Realm.

These were all factors affecting point acquisition!

Additionally, Lu Wu noticed that after entering the Mystic Realm, the Summoners encountered Summon Beasts of the same level as their own.

And the points earned for defeating them were the same.

This meant that the scores obtained by ordinary one-star Summoners would not differ significantly from those of Elite-level Summoners.

This placed everyone entering the Mystic Realm on an equal starting line, which also led to the possibility of ordinary Summoners' scores being far above those of Elite Summoners on the scoring board.

Moreover, the top 100 on the scoring board all received rewards, with higher ranks earning greater rewards!

The first-place Summoner even had the chance to choose a Summoning Stone.

This greatly stimulated players' desire to climb the leaderboard, a typical marketing tactic in online games.

Speaking of the scoring board, after learning about it, Lu Wu specifically went to take a look.

In the One Six One Nine Book Bar One Look Wu Correct Version!

Surprisingly, there were quite a few students from the Elite Class on the board, among whom Lin Jianying ranked 86th, while the tall-legged girl was in 9th place.

Lu Wu could recognize her despite not knowing her name because there were photos on the points leaderboard.

Lu Wu saw the tall-legged girl's photo and, in passing, her name—Ye Ruhuo!

"Such a big mouth, I thought she'd be more impressive. It took her until now to reach 9th place? Well, I'll set a small goal then—I'll just aim to get first place!"

As Lu Wu looked at the scoring board, he couldn't help but exclaim.

But as soon as he finished speaking, a familiar cold hum sounded again. Lu Wu turned but didn't see the tall-legged girl; instead, he saw a swaying single ponytail.

It was obvious someone had caught her in the act.

This was embarrassing; if he didn't get first place, where would he put his face when they met again?

Just then, the Mystic Realm bracelet on Lu Wu's hand rang with a prompt, indicating the start of the Mystic Realm.

"Let's go; I haven't entered this so-called Mystic Realm yet!"

Lu Wu pulled Dudu's hand, and the two of them hurried towards the Mystic Realm entrance.

At the entrance, Lu Wu encountered the tall-legged girl again, apparently one of the people entering in this batch.

Lu Wu didn't pay much attention to this, but the girl seemed unhappy to see Lu Wu pulling Dudu along.

Another cold hum and a ponytail swish—Lu Wu was left with a single ponytail.

Lu Wu couldn't be bothered to deal with this girl and went straight to the staff.

"Please select a mode: Solo, Duo, or Team?"

"Duo Mode!"

"Duo Mode selection successful. Enjoy your cultivation!"

After a simple procedure, Lu Wu and Dudu were led through a door. As they stepped in...

(End of Chapter)

Chapter 98: The Capable Little Skeleton

If you were to ask Lu Wu about his first impression of the Mystic Realm, his answer would simply be: Dark!

This particular Underground Cavern Mystic Realm was exceptionally dark. Although there were torches placed at regular intervals, the lighting was still insufficient, creating a dense and gloomy atmosphere.

Lu Wu was fine, but Dudu was starting to feel a bit uneasy.

She was naturally timid, and even when sleeping at night, she needed to keep a light on. In this environment, if it weren't for Lu Wu holding her hand, she would have burst into tears by now.

As Lu Wu and Dudu entered the Mystic Realm, the program on their Mystic Realm Bracelets activated, and a row of information appeared directly on the bracelets.

"Welcome, contestants, to the trial-type Mystic Realm created by the Summoner Center.

As your Summon Beasts are of Common 2-Star strength, you are currently on the second layer of the Mystic Realm.

You will earn 1 point for each Summon Beast defeated, 5 points for every 100 meters traveled, and 10 points for every 30 minutes spent (up to a maximum of 180 minutes).

Defeating the guardian Boss will grant you 50 points, and entering the third layer will also give you 50 points.

..."

Lu Wu quickly scanned through the information and focused on the last part, which was marked in red: [Prohibited to kill Summon Beasts in the Mystic Realm without reason]. After that, he stopped paying attention and pulled Dudu's hand, saying, "Let's go, Dudu. We're going to fight and level up!

Don't worry, I'm here, and I'll protect you!"

Dudu was easily reassured, and as Lu Wu tugged her hand, she immediately felt braver.

Her mind was alert, and in a daze, she followed Lu Wu out of the safe zone at the entrance of the Mystic Realm.

As soon as they stepped out of the safe zone, before their feet could even steady, a loud whooshing sound filled the air, and a large wave of thorns rushed towards them.

Caught off guard by this situation, Lu Wu's expression changed, but before he could react, Dudu's pig suddenly leaped out of her embrace and transformed, blocking the wave of thorns with its rear end.

While protecting Lu Wu and Dudu, the pig also shot them a disdainful look.

Damn, he was being looked down upon by a pig!

Lu Wu became furious, "Little Skeleton! You..."

"Crack!"

A series of cracking sounds filled the air, and the little skeleton beside Lu Wu disappeared.

Lu Wu looked again and saw his little skeleton holding a baseball bat, viciously striking a hedgehog-like Summon Beast.

Lu Wu's Mystic Realm bracelet was flashing a red alert, and if the little skeleton continued, the hedgehog would be finished, and they would lose points and have to pay a fine.

After all, in this trial-type Mystic Realm, the monsters were someone's private property.

Lu Wu quickly stopped the little skeleton.

But at this moment, the little skeleton wasn't very obedient. Even after being told to stop, it still wanted to take a few more swings.

It was clear that this little guy was genuinely angry.

Although its owner, Lu Wu, was turning into a bad Lu Wu, the good Lu Wu and bad Lu Wu were both its Lu Wu, and it would never allow anyone to hurt its Lu Wu.

Holding the little skeleton's hand and feeling its huffing anger, Lu Wu's anger subsided. He patted the little skeleton's head and explained, "The Summon Beasts here won't harm me. Our Mystic Realm bracelets have a protection function, and even if we're hit, we'll only lose our trial qualifications.

Also, it's not a bad guy. When we encounter other Summon Beasts later, don't hit them so hard, okay?"

The little skeleton didn't fully understand Lu Wu's words, but its little brain was nodding along.

It didn't know what it was agreeing to, but whenever it nodded, Lu Wu would be happy, and he would pat the little skeleton, making it happy too.

As for what would happen next time they encountered such a situation?

The little skull seemed to be going all out, and Li Wu was still petting it. Naturally, the little guy's thoughts were seen by Li Wu.

Li Wu's hand itched a little at that moment, but then he thought again. This Mystic Realm was a special case, a fully controlled and commercialized realm with no danger. The next one they were heading to, the Grand Cemetery, would be a different story.

When the time comes to fight in the Grand Cemetery, it would be a life-or-death situation. In that case, the little skull's mindset was the most correct approach.

With this thought, Li Wu decided not to correct it. At most, he would just need to be a bit more careful when the little skull got into a fight later, ensuring it didn't kill anyone's Summon Beast.

"Let's go, keep going!"

After petting the little skull a couple of times, Li Wu returned to holding Dudu's hand, continuing their trial or, you could say, their Mystic Realm journey.

Having experienced the attack, Li Wu and his team adjusted their formation. The little skull took the lead to scout ahead, while Tuan Tuan transformed back into her cute form and was carried in Dudu's arms.

The two humans and two beasts strolled through the Mystic Realm.

As this was their first challenge, Li Wu didn't have any ambitious goals of achieving a high score right away.

He treated this first attempt as an experience and information-gathering opportunity, as well as a chance to temper the little skull and Tuan Tuan.

In the One Six One Nine Book Bar One Look Wu One Correct Version!

Um, did something get out of order here? Never mind, let's not worry about it!

On the little skull's side, because Li Wu had just been attacked, it was now sent out to scout ahead, and it became extra vigilant.

At the slightest sense of something amiss, regardless of the situation, it would charge forward and strike with its club first.

The problem was that it was too nervous, and while its first few strikes were quite accurate, it ended up hitting a Summon Beast, which surprised even Li Wu.

Li Wu never expected his little skull to be so capable, and he praised it profusely.

If Li Wu hadn't praised it, things might have been fine. But with this praise, things took a turn for the worse.

The little skull had been tense and wronged recently, fearing that Good Li Wu would turn into Bad Li Wu and that Li Wu would no longer want it.

Now that Li Wu was praising it, the little skull suddenly felt the world was a better place.

The somewhat bad Li Wu was about to turn good again.

But then its clever mind turned, how did Bad Li Wu become Good Li Wu? By being capable!

This was because the little skull was capable!

Li Wu had just praised it, praising the little skull for its capability! So, the little skull had to be even more capable for Bad Li Wu to turn good. With this thought, the little guy became extra motivated.

Holding the electric baseball bat, it marched at the front. At the slightest sense of something amiss, the little guy would start swinging wildly.

The facilities in the cave took a beating.

The little skull's swings were precise, and wherever it passed, things were left in ruins.

In less than ten minutes, the little skull had knocked down several Summon Beasts, but it had also exhausted its own lightning energy and the electric bat's power.

But the worst was yet to come. The worst part was that its actions created a huge ruckus.

The noise attracted Summon Beasts from all around, and before Li Wu's group had even spent fifteen minutes in the Mystic Realm, they found themselves surrounded by dozens of Summon Beasts. Li Wu had no choice but to press the button to leave the Realm.

Meanwhile, the Tall-Legged Girl was taking her time to enter the Realm. It had been over twenty minutes, and she still hadn't entered, resulting in an awkward encounter as Li Wu's group was leaving.

The two exchanged glances, and the atmosphere became a bit awkward.

The girl was initially stunned, then she let out a small 'Hmph'.

This 'Hmph' meant one thing:

Is that it? That was fast!

(End of Chapter)

Chapter 99: Half a Month

The Underground Cavern Entrance!

Lu Wu's eyes met the long-legged girl, and she let out a distinct 'Hmm', causing Lu Wu's face to darken.

Who said anything about being fast, short, and soft?

Who are you talking about?

Believe him, and he'll prove it right now!

Unfortunately, Lu Wu only had the chance to turn black, without the opportunity to prove himself.

As the girl let out a particularly cheerful cold hum, she turned around with a proud demeanor and, shaking her ponytail, walked directly into the Mystic Realm.

This made Lu Wu especially unhappy, and he glared at the little skeleton!

But the little skeleton had no idea that Lu Wu was angry; it was still excited.

It wasn't very good at reading people's expressions, and now, when it saw Lu Wu looking at it, it immediately stuck close to him, its eyes flickering with flame.

Is the little skeleton not fierce? Is the little skeleton not impressive?

Is Lu Wu turning good? Is he not going to throw away the little skeleton? Is he going to hug the little skeleton?

The little skeleton saw that Tuan Tuan was also hugged by Lu Wu!

Well, seeing the state of this little guy, Lu Wu's anger dissipated.

He petted the little skull a few times to soothe the little fellow.

After that, Lu Wu went to the office and queued up, but this time, he didn't choose to cut in line; instead, he opted for a normal half-day queue.

After all, his little skeleton had just exhausted most of its energy from all the commotion, and he needed to recharge it. Meanwhile, he could use this half-day to do something else.

For example, he could organize the gains from the initial Mystic Realm experience of the past ten minutes and plan for the second entry into the Mystic Realm.

He could also take the opportunity to train the little skeleton and Du Du.

Yes, Du Du also needed training, but not the irresponsible kind.

Lu Wu brought Du Du into the Mystic Realm to enhance the summon beast's strength, and for the college entrance examination, aside from the summon beast aspect, there was also a cultural assessment.

By bringing Du Du into the Mystic Realm, he naturally had to take responsibility and work on the cultural aspect.

Additionally, Lu Wu also needed to set aside time to research the little skeleton's quality improvement plan and morphological evolution plan.

After that, Lu Wu spent some time creating a schedule for himself for his time in the Mystic Realm.

This not-so-large table was filled with dense writing, covering every moment from 6 AM to 12 PM, almost without any breaks.

It was an extremely efficient and fulfilling schedule.

However, after creating this time plan, Lu Wu suddenly realized that even if he followed this schedule, even if Du Du became thinner, he still wouldn't have time, ah, to accompany her.

This made Lu Wu very perplexed. Why was it that he couldn't make time to accompany a girl, while others could plan their time for multiple partners?

Could it be that he truly lacked the talent to be a playboy?

"It seems I'm just like my dad, a man with a deep-seated sense of loyalty and dedication!"

Yet, when the same schedule was shown to Du Du, her mindset was completely different.

While Lu Wu felt he had no time to accompany her, when Du Du saw the schedule, it was filled with her.

In a day's twenty-four hours, aside from the six hours for sleep, the remaining eighteen hours were spent together.

For Du Du, every moment was filled with happiness.

And so, the issue arose!

Yes, this was an issue! But regardless, as they followed this action plan, Lu Wu's Mystic Realm cultivation officially began.

Every day, aside from the morning and evening Mystic Realm trials.

Lu Wu and Du Du spent most of their time on the first floor of the restaurant.

Their actions were strictly guided by the schedule.

Such days passed, and before they knew it, two weeks had gone by.

These past two weeks have been incredibly fulfilling for Li Wu, both in terms of enhancing his summon beast's strength and improving his own knowledge reserves. He couldn't help but feel grateful that the first Mystic Realm he chose was this one, rather than the Great Graveyard.

While this Mystic Realm is heavily commercialized and barely considered a proper realm by experienced summoners like Li Kai, it is the most suitable for Li Wu at this stage.

Not only is the intensity of the trials appropriate for Li Wu's summon beast, but more importantly, the environment of the trials is equally suitable for him.

The realm is entirely commercialized, providing a comfortable environment. As long as one has money, they can eat and wear whatever they desire, and the accommodation conditions are decent, fully meeting Li Wu's needs in terms of living standards.

With all his living needs met, Li Wu's learning efficiency has naturally increased significantly.

In less than half a month, Li Wu has absorbed all the knowledge about the various breeding plans for the Skelehead Classification.

He even further improved the Skelehead Soup, upgrading it to version 6.0.

Additionally, Li Wu has also developed ideas regarding the evolution of the little skull.

Although there is no evolution plan yet, Li Wu believes that as soon as he starts experimenting, an evolution plan will surely appear.

As for the strength of the summon beast, in the past half month, both the Mini Skeleton and Tuan Tuan have made remarkable progress.

Both of their strengths have reached the brink of three stars. In fact, at this point, Li Wu can already start trying to stimulate the Mini Skeleton to level up by smashing his phone.

But Li Wu hasn't done that yet. He's holding back, and the reason for this is to prepare a grand skill.

This skill is being prepared for the 'Hmmm Monster'. Well, in the past two weeks, the nickname 'Hmmm Monster' has successfully been given to the long-legged girl on Li Wu's side.

The main characteristic of the 'Hmmm Monster' is that she always 'hmmms' whenever they meet.

Except for the first day, she hasn't said a word to Li Wu, and all communication is done through 'hmms'.

'Hmmm' in the restaurant!

'Hmmm' at the ranking board!

In the morning, seeing Li Wu and Doudou in the restaurant, she 'hmms'!

At eleven or twelve at night, seeing Li Wu and Doudou still in the restaurant, she also 'hmms'!

If it weren't for hearing this girl speak before, Li Wu might suspect that she's an emotionless machine that only knows how to 'hmm'.

To be honest, spending two weeks in this Mystic Realm has been interesting.

They meet each other every day, especially in the latter half of this period, when they've been bumping into each other in the restaurant almost daily.

Li Wu's perception of the 'Hmmm Monster' is actually not bad.

Although she's a bit proud and likes to 'hmm' a lot, she doesn't seem like a bad person.

Of course, Li Wu would never admit that his perception changed because his own Doudou hasn't transformed yet, and he finds this girl rather attractive.

Moreover, even if he thinks this girl is okay, it doesn't stop him from preparing a grand skill for her.

According to Li Wu's knowledge, the Elite Class had already withdrawn from this Mystic Realm's cultivation quite some time ago. After all, the cultivation here is quite challenging, and they had already stayed for half a month to push for the top spot on the ranking board.

She aims to be number one on the ranking board.

After half a month, her progress is notable, and she has already climbed from ninth place to the top spot, with the first place not far off.

Barring any unexpected events, she should be able to claim the top spot today.

Li Wu, with his broad-mindedness, is saving his grand skill for today.

Does he lack confidence? Is he too soft? Is he too hasty? Today, Li Wu will prove them all wrong and show what a true man is capable of!
