Chapter 37: Forming Gangs

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

Ever since Lu Shu realized that his day training was a kind of semi-automatic ability, he had never stopped doing it. He had no idea what had changed in the flame within his heart and could only wait patiently.

During the lessons in the day, Lu Shu no longer dozed off but was more concerned about the world news and an interesting one popped up today: In another country, a member of a terrorist cell had awakened and killed 2 people, but he was then killed by 3 other metahumans who happened to be there. Amazingly, these people were not concerned with the fact that there were onlookers.

Although the credibility of this news was unknown and the golden foundation’s website did not seem to have any updates on this, but if that really happened, it meant that the metahumans in other countries had started using their abilities openly.

This sort of news was previously unheard of and was very interesting.

Lu Shu did not have a reliable source of information and could only observe and deduce the world’s situation through this dubious news.

He had a sudden inspiration that if an authorized website could upload daily news regarding metahumans, this could educate everyone about what was happening in all the parts around the world.

But however meaningful this might be, if such a website was created, the advertisement fees being received would be enormous. To a high school student such as Lu Shu, he could only think of this kind of methods to earn money and nothing else…

But who was capable enough to pull this off? This required someone who had the connections and access to a lot of ongoing news. Other countries’ media had already started broadcasting news regarding metahumans but locally, there was nothing. Seemed like every country had different restrictions and censorship.

In the day, Lu Shu wanted to mess with some students to generate distress points but never got that opportunity. He had earned too much the day before, causing everyone to still be in a bad mood. Even Ye Lingling was sulking in her seat and not running her mouth off as usual.

The students who did not make it into the Daoyuan class all seemed dispirited. After all, seeing other students given the opportunity to become someone amazing while they had to settle for studying hard for examinations had left them with a sour feeling.

Lu Shu felt that he should do something to lift the mood. Teenagers should not be so moody every day.

So he sent a message to the class group chat:

Yesterday, I saw a metahuman and her powers could be useful to all of us. The secret is

By the power of Ballaa, Shaluoshaluo, little devil! Transform!

The classmates who saw this message were lost for words. What kind of metahuman could this damned little devil be!

Was he still normal? Did he awaken some disgusting messages power?!

Everyone developed high hopes from seeing the first part of the message thinking that there was a secret to awakening.

But it was actually just some nonsense!

“Are you sick in the mind?!”

“From Ye Lingling…”

This time, Lu Shu had earned almost 2000 distress points and adding the points this morning from Lu Xiaoyu and Ye Lingling, it was almost 3000!

Lu Shu felt that this method of his was a perfect match! It was invincible!

At this moment, Li Qi from class 7 came to the doorsteps and smiled, “Can those students selected for the Daoyuan class from this class please step out for a moment?”

Everyone started exchanging eye contact thinking what could be going on? What did Li Qi want with them?

It was already common knowledge who was chosen for the Daoyuan class but only Li Qi was an actual metahuman. He spoke confidently and in the past, Li Qi was already an infamous student known for being in gangs and getting into all kinds of trouble.

In the future, you would think that these people are the trash of the society who are unable to earn a living or make a name for themselves. But as of now, there was some kind of charisma to them.

Teenagers were generally more simple-minded and preferred direct and violent methods of dealing with problems.

Violence had become a growing problem in schools and this was because the students lacked discipline and were still rather immature, thinking that doing so would make them seem powerful.

Liu Li’s facial expression changed. He had never been ordered around like this before and it sounded like Li Qi was going to beat them up.

This was what gangsters did in school. ‘Who and who please come out for a while’ and they would drag them to the toilets to give them a good beating…

Lu Shu did not really mind. At that point in time, his strength had far surpassed that of Li Qi after lighting up the 5th star. And there was a rumor that Li Qi could not even write properly after he awakened, which meant that he had no control over his powers.

But Lu Shu never had an issue with this, being able to control his powers at will.

With these as back up, Lu Shu did not care if Li Qi wanted to find fault with him and it was a good opportunity for him to observe other metahumans at close proximity.

While Liu Li, Yuan Lingqi, and Li Qingyu were still contemplating what to do, Lu Shu had already walked out. For some reason, Li Qi had always thought that the way Lu Shu was acting was suspicious…

As the rest followed and went out, Li Qi leaned against the wall and snickered, “We are all part of the Daoyuan class. You guys may not be aware but the percentage of students from our school in Daoyuan class is not even 5%. So we all have to form a gang. Add me on WeChat and I’ll create a group later.”

Lu Shu almost laughed out loud. This guy was just like Liu Li. But he had a bigger ambition to consider the school as a whole while Liu Li only confined himself to the boundaries of their class…

Lu Shu had thought that the Daoyuan class was actually not so complicated. But to create a gang, would the black coats even let that happen?

They were already labeled as ‘unstable beings’ and if a gang had started forming, nothing good was going to happen.

Lu Shu had also thought that Liu Li would succumb to Li Qi’s prowess since he was an actual metahuman but Liu Li just turned around and left, “That thing about forming a gang, let’s forget about it.”

Li Qi smiled and did not reply but turned to Yuan Lingqi and Li Qingyu, “How about you guys?”

Lu Shu was fine with it. Gangs, to him, were… the more the merrier?!

After joining a gang, he could add the newly met people on chat groups and that would mean more people would see his messages!

The number of contacts in group chats was Lu Shu’s bread and butter. He had already realized that the fastest way to train was to rely on people!

In the past, Lu Shu had never agreed with the importance of being people-orientated but now it was different. Being people-orientated was such a high-level intelligence!

Lu Shu felt that his mindset had just transcended to a higher level…

Li Qi was still clueless about the competitor he had just invited into his gang…
