375 That Small Matter~

Tian Du City.

The First Academy.

With the tearing down of the display booths of various associations, the on-campus job fair had come to a close. The job fair ended with the Sword Card Master Association dominating the entire event.

In terms of the number of recruits, certainly, they were not ones with the highest number!

However, in terms of talent…

They were definitely the strongest!

After the performance of the Sword Card Master Association and the departure of the students from the on-campus job fair, the Sword Card Master Association had become an overnight sensation of the entire Tian Du City!

At this moment.

Everyone knew about the existence of the Sword Card Master Association!

“Hey, buddy, have you heard of the Sword Card Master Association?”

“Of course, that association is very amazing in all areas. I heard that they even know how to fly. Lu Ming and Yan Suya from the Elementalist Association fought in the sky!”

“He is that formidable?!”

Some disciples were astonished.

…

Somewhere.

“Hey, buddy, have you heard of the Sword Card Master Association?”

“I have some knowledge of it.”

“I heard that Lu Ming and Yan Suya flew into the sky together. Is that true?”

“Of course.”

However…

The rumors became increasingly odd. Later on…

“Hey, buddy, I heard that Lu Ming and Yan Suya had a threesome? Do you know about it?”

…

At this very moment…

The First Academy.

The dean was reading the on-campus job fair report.

He was very satisfied with the outcome of the event. Look, although Lu Ming tended to stir up trouble normally, he did not mess around at critical times?

First, Lu Ming was very domineering during combat!

To be honest…

Those old associations had secretly accepted some disciples. For example, people like Gao Tianlang did not turn up at the fair. This made the millennium anniversary lacklustre, as if it was not a serious occasion.

Thankfully… Lu Ming had appeared.

Be it a competition or a coincidence, Lu Ming challenged Yan Suya with his four-star identity and this miraculously became a highlight of the job fair!

He had added a brand new shine to the initially dull millennium anniversary celebration…

Well…

Lu Ming was also a graduate of The First Academy!

How could he not feel satisfied?

Second, the Sword Card Master Association would take care of all the lodging and food expenses for the students.

Look at this treatment.

It was so good!

In that case, the accommodation issue of the 20 students would be resolved. This had also saved the school a huge sum of expenses. Well… this was also a good thing.

Third, the school had six months’ worth of food now.

At the thought of this…

He picked up a piece of fried beef tenderloin with his chopsticks again and then took a bite.

It was tender, smooth and very flavorful.

His assistant was silent.

Whatever.

10 peak six-stars were guarding the entrance of the school for the whole day. Of course, nothing could happen! Can Lu Ming be considered sensible and obedient because of this?!

Of course, this is not the point.

The main point is…

Why did you snatch my beef tenderloin?

The assistant looked at the jet black steak on his plate and was instantly teary-eyed.

You’re the one who wanted it to be 120% well done! Why don’t you eat it yourself?!

…

Right then…

In the suburbs.

Somewhere.

Yan Suya drifted to the ground.

Over there, a middle-aged man was waiting for her.

“Are you ready?”

“Yes.”

“This time, you’re not allowed to leave suddenly. I’m afraid I won’t let you leave until you reach seven-star.”

“Alright.”

Yan Suya smiled slightly.

“However…”

The middle-aged man suddenly paused and then said with interest, “I heard that your clothes were torn off by Lu Ming during the fight?”

Yan Suya’s face turned black. “Who told you that?”

“Here.”

The middle-aged man pointed to the screen on the communication device.

Well…

This was a certain discussion forum.

A group of netizens were having a heated discussion about the on-campus job fair. In addition, a group of brainless online media was joining in the fun. There were various kinds of messy headlines —

“Under Everyone’s Gaze, a Quasi Seven-star Actually Did This Kind of Thing!”

“Quasi Seven-star Suffered a Crushing Defeat. Was It Stupidity or Loss of Morals? Let the Editor Bring You an Unknown Story…”

“Is He Her Opponent or Spouse? This All Started When Yan Suqi Said the Word ‘Brother-in-law’— This Article is Sponsored by the Clairaudience Association.”

“The Most Shameful Challenge That You’ve Ever Seen! Quasi Seven-star’s Clothing was Torn Off On the Spot During the Fight! — This News is Sponsored by the Clairvoyant Association.”

Yan Suya’s face turned sullen.

Master, what have you been paying attention to?!

Hence…

She casually scrolled to the last post and saw that so-called editor mentioning the final combat in it, as well as the netizens’ comments below it.

“Didn’t they say that she and Lu Ming had a threesome?”

“That’s bull**!”

“Where’s the third person? Obviously, a duel only consists of two people! Yan Suya’s clothes were ripped off during the fight. That was why she had to activate the Purgatory Realm! Furthermore, because of that, she didn’t dare cast many huge moves and could only maintain her outfit with the Purgatory Realm!”

“How do you know?”

“I’m a disciple of the Clairvoyant Association!”

“You’re joking. Even Seven-stars couldn’t see that. Yet, the Clairvoyant Association could? Didn’t the Purgatory Realm distort everyone’s sense of energy perception?”

“Yes, but we tempered both our eyes before and could see some blurry figures…”

“What did you guys see then?”

“Uh, when Yan Suya was shot by Lu Ming, we saw shadows of Yan Suya’s torn clothes… The flames then appeared.”

“Oh, so you guys merely saw some shadows.”

“Yes.”

“Were you able to tell if the person is wearing any clothes?”

“Man, you have to know. From the side, a shadow also reveals some cleavage…”

Shush!

The entire forum was silent instantly.

All the netizens went crazy. Just as they were all geared up for a discussion, they discovered that the disciple from the Clairvoyant Association had been banned. However, this did not stop many idiotic netizens from discussing about what they had said. Therefore, all kinds of obscure information emerged.

Well…

Now, everyone knew that Yan Suya’s clothes had been torn off.

Yan Suya finished reading the comments silently.

When she saw this, she had already missed the live broadcast. Nevertheless, she caught up when someone recapped the situation during the later discussions.

Well…

She felt like killing someone now!

Clairvoyant Association…

Hehe.

That fraudulent peeping tom association, she would destroy them sooner or later!

“So, your clothes were really ripped off?”

Her master glanced at Yan Suya’s uniform.

Well…

He had confirmed his doubts.

He was instantly stunned. “Didn’t I tell you to tailor make an attire that can withstand flames?”

Because of Elementalists’ special identity, of course, Yan Suya’s clothing was tailor made from non-flammable materials. This was to prevent the clothes from being burnt.

“It exceeded the threshold,” Yan Suya could only explain to her master.

The so-called non-flammable materials were not completely invincible. Otherwise, the Elementalist would have to kneel and address their opponent as father if the latter were to wear non-flammable clothing?

The non-flammable clothing also had a threshold.

However, her attire was tailor made with very rare materials. In theory, no one below seven-stars could destroy it! She remembered clearly. When Lu Ming retaliated instantly, the force of the reflection was stronger than hers and she did not have the time to defend…

Fortunately, due to the powerful and mysterious materials, after reaching its threshold, her clothing forcefully disintegrated and dissipated all the energy to protect the wearer!

Therefore, she was not hurt.

This was a kind of protection mechanism.

To be precise…

This did not have anything to do with Lu Ming!

“Oh.”

Her master came to his senses instantly. “It seems that your clothes were really torn off.”

Yan Suya’s face turned sullen. Had she wasted her breath explaining things earlier?

“This was the protection mechanism of the clothing.”

Yan Suya took a deep breath. “I was too careless at that time and didn’t react in time. Its protection mechanism was then activated and it disintegrated in the end,” she explained again very seriously.

It was true.

She had to explain this very clearly.

“Oh.”

Her Master finally understood. “Your clothes were really torn off.”

Yan Suya’s face turned ghastly pale.

Did you hear what I said?!

“Did you activate the precautionary measures?”

“Yes.”

Yan Suya said unhappily, “After the clothes were torn off… Ah spat… When the clothes were destroyed, I activated the Purgatory Realm immediately.”

“But Lu Ming was inside…”

Her master diverted the topic.

Yan Suya was silent.

“So, he really saw you?”

Her master’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Yan Suya’s face turned black.

Why does Master seem so excited?!

“Xiaoya.”

Her master was grateful. “You’re almost a seven-star… It’s also time for you to consider your future happiness. This Lu Ming is not bad! He’s good looking and powerful. Although he’s slightly younger than you and you’ll be suspected of robbing the cradle, you don’t have to be afraid of other people’s opinions sometimes…

“Master supports you in finding a younger guy!” her master said.

Yan Suya’s face was gloomy and sullen. Now, she was the one robbing the cradle!? For some unknown reason, she felt very grouchy today and felt the urge to beat someone up!

It was true.

She would hit her brother, but she could not bear to. She would hit her master, but she could not beat him. Since that was the case, she could only hit Lu Ming…

Lu Ming…

Just wait…

I’ll definitely give you a round of bashings when we meet again!

…

At this very moment…

Sword Card Master Association.

Sneeze!

Lu Ming could not help but sneeze.

“What’s the matter?”

Xiaobai was concerned.

“It’s okay.”

Lu Ming rubbed his nose. “I’m so dashing. It’s very normal for hundreds and thousands of people to miss me everyday.”

“Yes.”

Xiaobai felt that this was logical.

Hence…

They continued to focus on researching the Vocation Conversion Method.

Over the past two days, the entire Sword Card Master Association had been busy researching the Vocation Conversion Method. After all, Old Zhao had bought two copies and it would be a pity not to research them…

What was a vocation switch?

Simply put, it was the ability to abandon and re-cultivate!

One would destroy and dispel all the energy that they had cultivated since! Afterward, they would circulate the energy in a brand new way immediately…

and then absorb these energies with a new energy construction method!

Remodeling complete!

It was very simple.

First step, dispel all the energy.

Second step, absorb these energy and carry out the new vocation remodeling.

The first step was self-explanatory. One just had to destroy the energy directly and everyone knew how to do this. The so-called Vocation Conversion Method was referring to the second step!

A new vocation remodeling!

What was the amount of energy that had to be dissipated?

How long would the dissipated energy last?

What was the most appropriate time for remodeling?

What amount of energy was retained after remodeling?

What was the rate of loss?

What was the equivalent Sword Card Master level for a Swordsman who was originally a five-star?

What kind of methods would achieve an optimal outcome in one go?

At which stage was it appropriate to remodel the Original Card?

…

Wait a minute.

These questions needed to be resolved!

Hence…

The Sword Card Master Association launched into a full-scale operation to research this for a couple days. This involved a large amount of arithmetic operation and formulas. Fortunately, the few card spirits, led by Xiao-Xiaobai, were full mark scorers in Further Mathematics geometry. It was not a big deal to figure out these problems.

In just two days, a Vocation Conversion Methodology was out!

“Swordsman Card Vocation Conversion Method — Author: Xiao-Xiaobai, Xiao-Xiaoshé, Xiao-Xiaolei, Xiao-Xiaohou.”

“Why am I not included?!” Xiao-Xiaojian protested.

Clearly, the five card spirits had researched it together!

It also contributed!

“Let me check.”

Lu Ming specially inquired with Xiaobai. After Xiaobai checked, she replied that this guy had merely calculated a simple linear equation of two variables during the research period…

Furthermore, it got it wrong.

Lu Ming was taken aback.

Everyone is already reading about integrals. Damn it. You can even make a mistake on this?!

“Cough.”

Xiao-Xiaojian coughed. “I deserve some credit for my efforts.”

Lu Ming was expressionless.

He had thought that the card spirits had already mastered these high level formulas!

Wait a minute, since this guy’s mathematics was that poor, then the seven-parts sealing…

“Intuition!”

“What kind of formulas are needed for that?”

Xiao-Xiaojian pursed its lips. “Counting on my fingers, I know where to seal from!”

It had always felt that things such as space and geometry were specially made for useless card spirits. Why? Because they could not aim accurately!

Therefore, they needed assistance!

But, it?

It was an ancient sword spirit!

It was a talented player!

Sealing?

It just had to rely on intuition!

Lu Ming suddenly thought of something. “How did you pass the assessment previously?!”

If he was not mistaken…

Xiao-Xiaobai was responsible for the periodic assessment of the card spirits!

And the assessment method was answering questions!

Therefore, the card spirits would often remain in the classroom to answer questions. They would only be released after they passed. In his memory, Xiao-Xiaojian had also passed the last assessment…

Then why couldn’t it answer the linear equation of two variables correctly?

Lu Ming was perplexed.

“Do we need to use our brains for that?”

Xiao-Xiaojian was contemptuous.

During the final exams previously, it had also passed although his score was average… Why? It was because it answered correctly on all the multiple-choice questions…

Examinations…

Getting by would do!

A—alright.

Lu Ming sighed.

What could he do with such a card spirit?

As long as it could seal well, Lu Ming pretended that he did not know about this. Of course, he could not be bothered with this now.

The Vocation Conversion Method was out and the 20 disciples were going to join them!

Buzz—

Buzz—

The energy dissipated.

The 20 disciples stood in a row and completed the vocation conversion at the Sword Card Master Association. The conversion rate was on average 90% and above. The efficiency level was shocking. These disciples were stabilized at the beginner six-star level!

Yes.

They were still six-stars after the conversion!

The high conversion rate was that shocking and terrifying!

“It’s amazing.”

The disciples were astounded.

They had heard many students becoming five-star after a vocation conversion. There were even four-star ones! They had to waste a few years cultivating from the beginning!

And the Sword Card Master vocation…

They could actually stabilize them at six-star!

“I read from the guidelines that Xiao-Xiaobai, Xiao-Xiaoshé and so on did this.”

“Yes, I don’t know who these seniors of the Sword Card Master Association are. They are very formidable. I have to familiarize myself with the association later on and pay a visit to those seniors,” someone said.

Everyone else nodded in agreement.

The Sword Card Master Association…

It seemed to be more amazing than they imagined!

At this moment.

These people finally became the second generation disciples of the Sword Card Master Association!

Everyone felt very emotional. At the on-campus job fair, they had witnessed many mysterious and strong powers. Now, they could not wait to start learning them!

Of course.

They were very sure of the crux of all of this.

Card spirit!

Yes.

The many abilities of the Sword Card Master were associated with the card spirit!

Automatic cultivating, automatic buying of groceries, automatic assistance and automatic aiming… All of this was akin to software bugs and everyone was waiting for this to happen.

Therefore, the first thing that they did after joining the association was to choose their card spirit!

Hence…

In that afternoon.

From the conference room of the Sword Card Master Association, voices of a group of tenors could be heard. They were sonorous and strong, clear and aloud. It resembled that of the students reciting in unison during the morning reading sessions.

“Original Card!

“Original Card

“You have already grown up!

“You have to learn how to cultivate, do grocery shopping and be independent!”

…
