Lu Shu felt that something was not right with the Cultivation College admission test. He had taken all the tests he needed to take. He calculated the time. There seemed to be nothing wrong with the timing Zhong Yutang had informed him of earlier.

He had indeed missed the test because he was out on a mission...

“When exactly was the test?” Lu Shu pulled Zhong Yutang and asked.

Zhong Yutang replied without any hesitation, “January 6.”

Lu Shu gasped in shock. Wasn’t that only a few days after Nie Ting had given him the choice to retreat? If he had retreated then, he would have made it in time for the test!

But no one told me about this! Lu Shu was immediately speechless. He did not know when exactly the test was. He completely forgot about it while he was in Japan!

Zhong Yutang knew that Lu Shu’s deeds this time around were very impressive, thus his tone was very polite. Of course, it was mainly because he could not defeat Lu Shu now. Besides, he knew that Lu Shu typically did not care whether you were his comrade or not. It would be another story if he had died.

“Xiao Shu, you too know that the Heavenly Network wants to stand up against the pressure of the influential officials. From the principle point of view, there are no flaws. If they allow you to take the test later than prescribed, others will use your case as a breach of policy,” Zhong Yutang said sincerely and earnestly.

Lu Shu muttered to himself. “I was doing it for our country...”

“From Zhong Yutang’s distress, +666!”

“Hold on!” Zhong Yutang was getting a headache from this. “I have other things to do, so I’ll take my leave!”

Without even waiting for Lu Shu to react, Zhong Yutang took off his jacket and left immediately.

Lu Shu picked up Zhong Yutang’s uniform jacket. He was speechless. “Don’t you want your jacket?”

Liu Li looked at Lu Shu from the side, dumbfounded. Lu Shu had thought that he was on good terms with Liu Li. Since Liu Li’s revered elder cousin had saved him, he should treat Liu Li a bit better too, right?

Lu Shu walked towards Liu Li. “I have something on now, so I’ll take my leave. But everything that I have said still holds. If you encounter any problems, come find me. I am good friends with your elder cousin. Although he is no longer around, but from now on, I am your elder cousin!”

“From Liu Li’s distress, +999!”

Liu Li’s expression darkened. Talk was talk, but here he was taking advantage of others? Just now, Liu Li had still thought that Lu Shu had changed. But now it seemed like this was not the case. Lu Shu was still the old Lu Shu!

For some reason, Liu Li was also slightly comforted. During his high school days, there was a lot of hostility between students. Looking back after graduation, the conflict they had in school was laughable. After entering the workforce, the people who had obviously fought in high school ended up being the best of friends. This was not uncommon, on the contrary, it was quite normal.

When everyone had thought that Lu Shu was dead, even Li Yuqing and Ye Lingling mourned over Lu Shu’s death. There were times when the relationship between people was not as complicated as one might think... if Lu Shu was normal, that is.

But Liu Li did not even think about understanding what exactly had happened to Lu Shu. According to the notice from the Heavenly Network, wasn’t Lu Shu dead? However, he realized that at the Heavenly Network, many people kept their calm in the face of the unexpected occurring at the Capital.

Liu Li suddenly realized that when they were fighting among themselves in their student days, Lu Shu had already stepped out of the “student” circle towards an even bigger stage.

Take Zhong Yutang for example. The Chief Manager of Yuzhou was like a Heavenly King in the eyes of the students. But Zhong Yutang was very polite towards Lu Shu. And Lu Shu could still strip his jacket off...

In Liu Li’s eyes, the Lu Shu now had become somewhat mysterious. It was as it there were too many things that had happened that he did not know about.

Lu Shu used his right hand and pounded his chest before pointing at Liu Li. “I, Lu Shu, will not go back on my word. Remember, from now on I am your elder cousin.”

“From Liu Li’s distress, +999!”

Go away! Do you have to take advantage of people all the time?

Lu Shu immediately left after he finished speaking. He wanted to find Nie Ting or Shi Xuejin to discuss this matter. In the end, he realized that both Nie Ting and Shi Xuejin had disappeared! Where did they go?!

Over the next two days, Lu Shu looked everywhere for Nie Ting and Shi Xuejin. But it was as if they had completely disappeared! Lu Shu could not find them at all. He felt that if they were not intentionally hiding from him, then they must be ghosts.

Lu Shu was worried. He suddenly thought of a question that made him very uncomfortable. “Xiaoyu, have you taken the admission test?”

“Yes, and I scored quite well,” Lu Xiaoyu said lightly. “I still thought that we would be classmates. I never thought that I would eventually become your senior.”

“...”

She should have been four school years younger than him. Now she had become his senior?! What was happening?

“No worries,” Lu Xiaoyu comforted him. “There’s still next year. Our Lu Shu is so smart. As long as you work hard, you can definitely pass next year.”

“Lu Xiaoyu, I’m giving you one more chance to reorganize your language,” Lu Shu said with a black face.

“Just wait for your turn next year.” Lu Xiaoyu, pleased with herself, held her phone to watch Naruto.

Was it important to her whether or not she attended school? No! It was just that Lu Shu had insisted on her going to school.

Thus, Lu Xiaoyu took pleasure in Lu Shu not taking the admission test. She had no emotional burden. Thinking about how she had suddenly become Lu Shu’s senior, she could not help but feel excited...

At the same time, Nie Ting and Shi Xuejin were far away, sitting by a river shore and angling. Shi Xuejin was enjoying his thread-bound book. The phone in his bag rang and he fished it out. He took a look and smiled. “Lu Shu has left the capital. Putting him in the security formation is an inhibition of his outstanding service.”

“He should have displayed his talents on a bigger stage.” The fishing rod in Nie Ting’s hands shook. As he reeled the rod, he said, “Wait until he spends some time in the security formation without any profit. Then he will know the benefits of going overseas.”

“Are you not scared that he will rebel?” Shi Xuejin laughed.

“Lu Shu has a baseline. He is much better than those who proclaim that they love their country, yet engage in unprofitable business behind the scenes. He has to be willing to become the Ninth Heavenly King and be in charge of overseas relations. There is no use for me offering him a humble apology,” said Nie Ting.

“Earlier I was wondering why you thought so highly of him, a young man of Class C.” Shi Xuejin’s fishing rod shook and he fished out his catch. “If we let the whole world know that a 17 year old boy had killed Takashima, who was on the boundary of Class A, I’m not sure what the arrogant Hades from the Phoenix Society will think. Of course, Lu Shu probably has a lot of luck on his side.”

“Luck is also a component of strength,” Nie Ting said calmly.
