Chapter 108: Your flaws are being too poor! (Part 1)

The main takeaway from Li Yixiao’s words was that… Daoyuan students would probably be allocated missions, perhaps like Xi Fei and company’s responsibilities to facilitate future Daoyuan cla.s.ses or to maintain peace.
In other words, everyone would have a job…
The shock brought by the Cla.s.s B expert was huge and comparing the two parties would be like heaven and earth.
And Li Yixiao was quite straightforward to directly remind everyone that they would be dealing with such metahumans in the future and if their training progress was slow, they might lose their lives unknowingly.
And even reminded the rich to quickly purchase magical lands…
Previously, although the teachers had mentioned the importance of magical lands and everyone could tell from Jiang Shuyi the benefits of them, the purchase of magical lands was still done in discreet but now, it was an open affair.
If a Cla.s.s B expert emphasized the importance of magical lands, then they must be important.
Lu Shu glanced over at Jiang Shuyi’s expression and he was obviously aware of this new princ.i.p.al long before.
Xi Fei was very rather dedicated to still teach while injured. This time, he finished teaching the Yogacarabhumi Sastra and started on the Outer Dharma-sutra which seemed irrelevant to training and was just a process of understanding.
But at the end, Xi Fei told everyone, “There was a suspicious character who seemed to be Cla.s.s C and this person’s strength was able to crush a Cla.s.s D strength-type. His cla.s.s might be even higher than that”
“Why I say that is because that Cla.s.s D fugitive was in the middle of awakening a second time which makes it harder to judge the true cla.s.s of that person.”
Xi Fei continued, “This person uses a sword and his sword was made of black jade. His powers could even be materialized outside of his body to form an energy cloak that protects him. Do take note, if you happen to see this person anywhere, the first thing to do would be to call me. Also, do not engage him as you will definitely die and having the numbers would not lessen the power gap.”
Everyone only just found out about this incident and where did this expert come from? And why were Xi Fei and company paying so much attention to this person?
“Sword… This person is a sword expert”
“Furthermore, how cool is it for a pract.i.tioner to fight against a pure strength-type?”
“Who exactly is this expert?”
Lu Shu was feeling troubled as he realized the attention the Heavenly Network had on him.
At night as cla.s.ses ended, Jiang Shuyi asked, “Are you selling your future magical stones? I suggest not to and better to use them for training.”
Lu Shu was glad. Nowadays, the demand for magical stones was skyrocketing but Jiang Shuyi actually rejected them which was also what Lu Shu wanted, “Mhm, I’m gonna use them for my training.”
I can’t sell them anymore or else it would raise suspicions. I can only wait for a better opportunity to do so.
Reaching home, Lu Xiaoyu, who was watching television, said to Lu Shu, “the 40k is placed under your bed.”
The two of them went separate ways in the afternoon, one went home while one went to school and so the money was left in Lu Xiaoyu’s care.
Although the amount wasn’t much, it would still come in handy in emergencies.
The thing to do now would be to use these banknotes with consecutive serial numbers for daily expenditure. If not, using them to pay school fees would allow for the source to be tracked.
But Lu Shu felt that even if someone found out, he could just say him and Lu Xiaoyu picked it up outside and the location would be that place. The situation was so chaotic that no one could confirm if that was the truth and those 3 fugitives did drop some during their escape.
And who could ever imagine the kind of interaction an orphan in Daoyuan cla.s.s would have with those fugitives? Who would know that Lu Xiaoyu looked through the memories of the fugitive?
That would be too far-fetched.
“Okay,” Lu Shu changed into his slippers as he suddenly realized that he did not receive any distress points from Li Xianyi, “You didn’t anger the old man today? That’s good. The old man is kind towards us so try not to agitate him.”
But this kind of thing wasn’t fully preventable as Lu Xiaoyu was just a child. Even Lu Shu was frequently angered so angering Li Xianyi would be normal…
Lu Shu did not earn much distress points today and did not even went to sell the stinky tofu he drew from the lottery. He had gone digging for money in the morning and in the afternoon, the situation with Li Yixiao happened.
There was no progress that day! How could Lu Shu tolerate such a thing?!
Using a new ID, he found an opportunity on the Golden Foundation forum and posted quite a few comments which were instantly buried under new ones…
F*ck. Lu Shu had always valued people as precious resources but too many people wasn’t a good thing! There were too many people commenting and each post had a few ten thousands comments. The number of people who saw his comments was too small and he only received 400 distress points…
Laughing sarcastically, Lu Shu closed the Golden Foundation forum page. You guys have no idea the valuable life lesson you just missed!
He thought for a moment and opened his cla.s.s group chats- Luo Cheng cla.s.s group chat and F9 cla.s.s group chat.
But looking through, there was nothing he had to talk about. Everyone was discussing magical lands.
“My dad said there are quite a few obvious magical lands in Luo Cheng and their prices are way inflated. Those landlords are not dumb.”
“But there’s no choice. Look at Jiang Shuyi and Liu Li’s training speed, their apt.i.tudes were already high and with an additional magical land, the gap between them and us would only grow.”
“They are rich….”
“I heard that there are two villas in the new area where because the plants grew to be very unusual, the prices have already risen to 12 million.”
“Have you heard about cla.s.s F7’s Zhang Shuang? He has a Tier C apt.i.tude but after buying a magical land, his training speed rose to the same as a Tier B apt.i.tude!”
“Magical lands are really beneficial, but just too expensive.”
Most of the Daoyuan students had a decent financial background but there a small group that belonged to the extremely wealthy. One example was this Zhang Shuang. After his family bought a magical land, his training speed was on par with those of Tier B apt.i.tudes.
Basically, magical lands would improve your training.
But the prices of magical lands had exceeded the acceptable amount and how many people in Luo Cheng could actually afford 10-20 million on a house? If the price in Luo Cheng was as such, what about the city?
Lu Shu grinned, “Why is being expensive the flaw of magical lands, isn’t that your flaw…?”
You guys are too poor!!
