Chapter 181: The “Battleground” that Disappeared!
Qing Ming City.
Just as Lu Ming hung up the phone, Xiaobai’s curious eyes were sweeping across him and the atmosphere in the shop beca very intriguing.
“What’s on your mind?”
Knocking the little girl’s head, Lu Ming said unhappily, “She’s not pregnant! It’s also not what you’re thinking. I injured the lady unintentionally last ti and have to clarify this with her brother!”
“Oh.”
Xiaobai seed to have understood a little.
Lu Ming rolled his eyes.
Young girls nowadays...
They were at a cloudy age where they loved to make wild guesses even when they did not understand...
What was there to guess?
“Put away your curiosity.”
Lu Ming rubbed Xiaobai’s little head, ssing up the hair that she had just combed neatly. “Let’s go and have dinner. Don’t think of these nonexistent things...”
“Okay,”
Xiaobai agreed obediently.
The two of them then headed to the barbecued fish shop.
After dinner.
Xiao Bai went to learn.
Lu Ming was fiddling with the blood in his hands curiously.
Tsk tsk.
This was Miss Xiaoqing’s blood...
He gingerly opened the bottle, leaned forward and sniffed it. True enough, besides the sll of blood, there was an unusual and familiar scent...
Oh, Miss Xiaoqing’s body fragrance.
This was the thing that could attract the nearby beasts?
Lu Ming was filled with curiosity.
However...
He did not know.
As he studied it obsessively, Xiaobai, who was beside him, was looking at her master with interest. She even carefully moved her table to his side...
This was because her master looked so... so satyric now.
Oh.
Could he have been led astray again?
What could be the reason...
Coming to think of it, he had participated in the competition with Zhang Xiaopang during this period!
Snort!
It must be that damn fatty again!
Xiaobai had made her decision. When she had a chance in the future, she would give this fatty a beating.
Blood.
This was an amazing thing.
Especially in this world. Due to the presence of energy, cultivation and bloodline legacy, there were various kinds of blood!
Xiaoqing’s blood had undergone a transformation. Therefore, it might also have so special effects!
Animal...
Herb fragrance...
Lu Ming paused for a mont but did not dare to experint.
It was true.
He was very cowardly nowadays.
If he did not guess it wrong, the island of the Lunar Shadow legacy was eventually destroyed by the sea cows lured by Miss Xiaoqing’s blood...
If this happened here...
Hehe.
Lu Ming hurried to put away the bottle of blood.
Forget it.
He would study this in places that were more tightly guarded, such as The First Academy, when he had a chance to...
Right now...
He should focus on creating cards.
At the thought of this, Lu Ming carefully put away the bottle of blood.
This thing...
He would take it as a secret weapon for the ti being!
At this mont...
The competition had ended. He could now cultivate at ease and wait for the results. When Old Jiang was back, he could then bring him to the place to break through to four-star!
Of course.
Before this, he had to attain ten thousand energy points.
However, just as Lu Ming began to cultivate, he received Teacher An’s call to request him to make a trip to the school.
Lu Ming arrived at the school, feeling confused.
“Well...
The principal is not back yet, right?”
An Mufeng stared at Lu Ming.
“No.”
Lu Ming sighed. “Are the teachers having a hard ti?”
Look, Teacher An Mufeng had beco so thin. Was it because the yogurt did not taste good?
“Not to that extent.”
An Mufeng scratched his head. “It’s just that... We should repair the school field soon. Soone has fallen into the fissures of the field just now...”
Lu Ming was taken aback.
Field, cracks. Soone could actually fall inside?!
Are you kidding?
“Uh, that... that’s a little strange.”
An Mufeng felt very helpless too.
Who the hell knew that the cracks in the field would turn out like that.
“Co, let’s take a look.”
Lu Ming followed An Mufeng to the field.
Cracks had really appeared in the ground. The field did not look that miserable. These cracks were ultimately small and would not have much of an impact.
“It’s inside,” An Mufeng said.
Hence...
The two of them walked further in. As they moved further into the field, the cracks got increasingly bigger and gradually, they had a width of three to four centiters. They looked quite terrifying. When they reached the forest at the end of the field, the fissures were similar to a deep pit.
An enormous crack... Thirty centiters wide... Two to three ters deep...
It was very terrifying!
Lu Ming felt a little speechless.
Really, why do you guys need a field? You can cause the field to beco like this?!
Lu Ming looked at the location. Although the biggest fissure was here, it was the end of the forest and people would normally not co here...
“A man and a woman fell into this?”
Lu Ming sighed.
“Yes,” An Mufeng replied.
“Were they hurt?”
Lu Ming knew that this would be the case.
“It’s not too bad. They seed to have hurt their waists and nothing else,” An Mufeng said in a low voice.
Hehe.
Lu Ming pursed his lips.
Waists...
Hehe.
How did they slide into this and hurt their waists?
A new body position challenge?!
In addition, there were only ordinary cracks in the entire field. Why did the ground crack open here and even have a fissure that was two to three ters deep!
Although a cultivator’s physique is strong and powerful, you guys don’t need to be that vigorous?!
They could not even let the field off the hook?
“Put a sign to forbid people from entering.”
Lu Ming felt very helpless.
He had no choice as Jiang Feng had not returned.
Massive funds were needed to refurbish the field. Normally, the higher-ups needed to approve it. He could not resolve this well even if they were to go through normal procedures. Therefore, he could only prohibit access to the field.
“That field...” An Mufeng asked weakly.
“Can’t we apply to the Ministry of Education or sothing?”
Lu Ming pondered for a mont. “Let’s apply first and see what happens.”
“The higher-ups won’t agree,” An Mufeng said sullenly.
If it was really that easy, they would have long applied for it.
“That was in the past.
Didn’t we get into the top hundred? With this fa, perhaps the higher-ups would have so consideration for our college,” Lu Ming said calmly.
That was right.
An Mufeng’s eyes lit up.
They were one of the top hundred schools now. In theory, they were the strongest school in Qing Ming City and the only one that had entered the top hundred in the entire city!
How could things be the sa as before?
“I’ll prepare the docunts now!”
An Mufeng was in high spirits.
However...
Before they even began, they saw two dark shadows walking out sneakily and removing their clothes anxiously. With a roll...
Thud!
They fell into the pit and they could hear a miserable cry.
Lu Ming and An Mufeng fell silent.
Damn!
Were they that impatient? Could they not endure it?
Could they not look at the terrain?
The entire field has already been torn apart by you guys and you’re still that ‘deprived’?
“They are still young after all...”
An Mufeng heaved continuous sighs.
He seed to be recalling how he was like during his younger days...
It was wonderful.
If he had not grabbed the opportunity during his schooling days to get to know his wife, most probably he would have ended up in the sa state as these people. After getting into society, there were very few won for them to et and they would likely lead a lonely life forever.
“Do a lot of people co here every day?”
Lu Ming was expressionless.
Why...
Why did he feel that he had wasted his ti in university?
This damn science and engineering course.
“Everyday.”
An Mufeng felt very helpless too. Prohibiting access would not deter this kind of student because this was a sacred place in their hearts.
Lu Ming was speechless.
He really did not expect this.
That, one day, he would be managing the deprived couples of the school.
Furthermore...
They could not continue in this way.
“How long does the refurbishnt take?” Lu Ming asked.
“They will need about a month.”
An Mufeng pondered for a mont. “There are many procedures to go through.”
“That won’t do.”
Lu Ming glanced at the enormous fissure before his eyes.
These fissures seed to be getting larger and larger. At this rate, there would be more and more students getting injured. After all, not everyone cultivated their physique...
What if a weak girl were to fall into it?
Or perhaps...
Soone fell down at the most critical mont and then snap! Sothing broke.
What to do?
It would be a huge scandal!
Would the school be affected because of this?!
The higher-ups were in the midst of reviewing whether to cease the school’s operations at the mont. At such critical tis, Lu Ming did not want such ssy things to happen.
“Well... Let think.”
Lu Ming’s eyes swirled and glanced around the field. Suddenly, he saw that office building nearest to it. In his mory, no one had ever entered this building.
“This building...”
Lu Ming focused his gaze.
“Oh, you’re talking about that.”
An Mufeng glanced at it. “This was the work of the previous school leadership. They said that they wanted to expand the school and increase the quality of the teachers... I heard that the head of the construction departnt was the nephew of the school leader... Afterward, the school beca like this.”
This school has such a history?
Lu Ming was surprised.
“Otherwise, why would the school beco like this?”
An Mufeng sighed. “Actually, Principal Jing has been working very hard since he joined. However, there isn’t a good solution to these kinds of issues. He can only apply to the higher-ups for approval... Although that building is an office building that looks normal, there are many things inside which have not been fully constructed yet.”
“What if we sell this building?”
Lu Ming’s eyes lit up.
Although it had not been fully constructed, it looked like eighty percent of the work had been done!
Soone would be willing to take it!
Unfinished building...
They could find soone to reinforce the building. After so work, stability would not be an issue.
“The principal had the sa thoughts,” An Mufeng said earnestly, “The principal said to let the quality inspection departnt check it out. If there is no problem, we can sell it to other construction companies and retrieve so funds for the school...”
“What’s the outco of the inspection?”
Lu Ming’s heart jumped a beat.
Was this building lousy to the extent that it could not be reinforced?
“Er...”
An Mufeng paused for a mont before saying honestly, “We don’t have funds to get people to do the inspection.”
Lu Ming was speechless.
Damn, he wanted to hire people when they did not have money!
Alright.
The school’s financial situation was much more miserable than he had imagined...
However...
They could not continue in this way!
“Leave it to ,”
Lu Ming pondered deeply for a mont. “We will get them to leave today. A few teachers can handle this. The field is under refurbishnt and entry is prohibited!
This applies to both teaches and students.
I’ll get soone to check whether we can fix these fissures.”
Lu Ming’s voice was low.
“Sure.”
An Mufeng was elated.
As long as soone was managing it, things were easier.
Although Lu Ming was only a student... He had no choice. Who told Lu Ming to have such a good relationship with the principal? Now, the principal’s signet was in his hands. Who else could he listen to but him?!
Hence... that night.
An Mufeng and the group fulfilled their duties diligently and chased the people away.
The sky was dark and the wind strong.
A lone figure appeared in the field.
“I don’t think there’s anyone now.”
Lu Ming swept his gaze across the field.
His sense of perception scanned the place and he did not discover anyone else.
Well...
It seed that An Mufeng had already settled this well.
The next step would be to fix the school field.
He focused his gaze for a mont and picked the best spot. One by one, he threw out the cards in his hands. Every card was a Demolition Card and herds of bulls appeared...
Bang!
Bang!
The herds of bulls trampled with booming noises.
The field, which was already on the verge of collapse, was completely ruined. The field which originally had fissures directly collapsed. Dust and smoke rose in the sky and one could hear deafening sounds.
Bang!
Bang!
Lu Ming looked on coldly.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
He kept throwing out the cards in his hands.
Dense herds of bulls appeared and they charged from one end to another, to and fro, and repeatedly. Once, twice, thrice...
After a long ti...
When the dust had settled and the smoke and dust that filled the sky disappeared, the field beca extrely flat and neat.
H-however...
It was a few ters shorter than before!
However, after thinking, it did not seem to matter that the field was shorter by a few ters?
Well...
Not bad.
Lu Ming glanced at it and was very satisfied.
This was considered an amazing use of the Demolition Card. It could demolish spoiled items and then let the bulls trample them flat...
Look at how beautiful the brand new field was.
More solid.
Flatter.
More durable.
“I’ll have to seek reimbursent from Old Jiang when he’s back.”
Lu Ming heaved a sigh of relief. Afterward, he turned around confidently, only to discover that office building closest to the field was swaying. It then collapsed suddenly...
Bang!
There was a deafening sound.
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
To hell with it!
It collapsed just like that?
This was not expected!
He was very clear of the power of the Demolition Card. In the past, it was amazing in the old town area because the houses were old and they were built more than ten years ago...
A part of the newly built houses was not affected!
Much less a school building!
The specifications for school building had the highest safety standards among all the construction buildings. They had to pass through a strict inspection and had a certain resistance to earthquakes. Why would it collapse with the use of a few Demolition Cards?
This building...
Lu Ming pondered for a while before calling Teacher An directly.
“Teacher An. I got soone to refurbish the field today. I got them to inspect that building at the sa ti,” Lu Ming said sullenly. “We then discovered that this building did not et the specifications. There is a risk of it collapsing, highly endangering the safety of our students. We have to resolve it as soon as possible!”
“Huh?”
An Mufeng was shocked and frightened. “What should we do then?”
Forget that the field had a problem. Even the office building did not et the specifications?
What should he do?
They could not possibly sell it then!
It was serious to the point of having to remove it. No companies would be willing to accept it anymore. However, it would cost a lot more to reinforce the structure than to reconstruct a new one!
Sigh.
“What can we do?
We have to let the kids go to school!
Since they were around, I spent more money to settle it.”
Lu Ming took a deep breath. “My sister left so money for . For the sake of the kids’ safety. Soone has to do this...”
“Lu Ming.”
Tears were welling up in An Mufeng’s eyes.
Look.
This was a responsible student!
“However, note this down in the accounts.”
Lu Ming said, “I will seek reimbursent from the principal when he is back.”
“Sure.”
An Mufeng had a grave expression. “It has been tough on you!”
“For the sake of the children!”
Lu Ming’s expression was grave.
He hung up the phone and looked at the collapsed school building. After pondering, he caused a herd of bulls to head there and trample the area flat...
Well...
It looked more pleasing to the eyes now.
Hence...
There was now an additional piece of flat land in the school field.
The next day.
When the students woke up.
Looking at the flat and barren field, and then looking at the small forest which had disappeared, there were sounds of wailing.
Although it was necessary to refurbish the field, did the small forest provoke you? So what if there were fissures in the forest? It would not affect its function!
Their grandchildren... Ah spat! Their youth... was gone.
Everything was gone!
The students were in utter despair.
However, so of them who were not romantically enlightened were very satisfied that the field had been repaired. It was more solid now and they could cultivate there. However, when they stepped into the field and looked around, they felt a little odd.
It was strange...
Why did they feel as if sothing was missing?
Well...
Forget it.
He would definitely be beaten to death.
