“The new guy in the team, he doesn’t seem exactly to be of sound mind…”

“I find it so too. He actually asked me where the Eighth Route Army is. How the hell would I know…”

“Oh, he asked you too…”

Lu Shu chuckled as he collected the distress points while tagging behind the group. It was now only ten thousand points away from three-hundred-and-twenty-thousand distress points.

The first layer of Nebula condensed into the Corpsedog. What would the second layer bring?

His level of power now is at the Class D peak of a pure power system Awakened one. Even an ordinary Class D practitioner would be no match for him.

A power system Awakened person’s peak power is its purest pinnacle of existence. It was not necessarily the fact that the other practitioners were weaker than him, but Class C and below did not have any special means to be a match against him.

However, things would be different upon reaching Class C. No matter how fast people are, they cannot be faster than a flying sword.

Lu Shu’s greatest asset in his fight against a Class C is the Corpsedog. Since everyone has but one life, whoever takes the first jab at the opponent wins. Simple as that.

The Corpsedog was still having too many usage restrictions now due to his current Celestial energy capacity. Its energy would be drained after just seven or eight use.

However, it would not be too much to call him a pseudo-Class C now. The Corpsedog was his greatest trump card.

The problem is, in this case he would not much different from other Class Cs, and his endurance level was not as high.

Therefore, now he belongs to the stage whereby he was capable of killing a Class C, but when they reach a deadlock, he would probably still lose.

This was also the reason why he fervently wanted to break through the second Nebula. He thought that if he persevered longer, he would have one flying sword more than others…

By then, should he duel with a Class C, hey, you have a flying sword, I have two!

Just thinking about that would make Lu Shu wake up in elation. He did not have to go through painstaking efforts to produce a heart sword. Looking at how others spend so much effort on their heart sword to the point of being malnourished, he could not help but be gleeful.

In fact, he actually did not know how does the producing of heart swords works. It was simply groundless glee.

The people in front who were gossiping about Lu Shu turned around and realised he was smiling gleefully to himself. They felt a shudder down their spine.

“Is he frightened out of his wits by the remains?”

“It’s possible…”

“Poor thing. Actually, the remains aren’t that scary. As long as one dares to fight, safety can still be ensured.”

“I heard that when the remains at Yu Zhou was opened, many Dauyuan students turned into scaredy-cats. Haha, we the people of Qingzhou are so valiant.”

“You’re right!” The student who replied felt a sense of superiority welling up.

However, it did not cross their mind that the Daoyuan students of Yu Zhou entered the remains utterly unprepared. Had they begun at the same starting line, everyone would probably have wet their pants similarly.

At this moment, a python which was laying hidden in the trees spitted its forked tongue as it observed the group of people walking by below. For fear of danger, it did not make any move.

Suddenly, one of the girls screamed when she saw the python. Everyone spun around, only to see Lu Shu catching the snake in his hands. The python looked breathless as it had its gigantic fangs pulled out from its mouth by Lu Shu, while he strangled it with another hand…

After that, Lu Shu gave a nonchalant toss and the python disappeared into the woods.

Lu Shu’s moves were extremely fluid and utterly precise!

Everyone looked on, baffled. The whole forest suddenly quietened down and a Daoyuan classmate in front of Lu Shu asked, “What are you doing?”

“Extracting teeth!” Lu Shu replied tersely.

All who were present had a muddled expression. Who goes to the remains to extract the teeth of wild animals?

This kind of thinking is totally insane. If you can catch it, why not simply kill it straightaway? What’s the point of taking its teeth?

However, it was the time to think about this. Wang Xinkai was already hurrying everyone forward from the front.

During the remaining part of the trip, everyone started realizing that Lu Shu’s actions just now were not spur-of-the-moment. He plucked the teeth out of all animals he came across!

The team at the front met a leopard. Before anyone could act, Lu Shu was heard shouting madly from rear, “Come, let me do it!”

Following that, Lu Shu was seen running like the wind to the front and took out the leopard’s molar, before throwing it back into the forest. The leopard also had a look of incredulity.

Wang Xinkai sucked in a mouthful of cold air. Is the selection process of the Daoyuan class so lenient now? How did this madman get in?

Not long after the group left, a white-haired ape came out of the forest and, upon seeing the leopard, gesticulated wildly: There is a demon from God knows where who came specially to pluck our teeth! You must be careful! However, shouldyou meet him, do not put up a fight at all cost. Look at me, all swollen from the beatings!

Leopard: Har har, you said it too late…

Up in front, where the group went, Lu Shu’s voice could occasionally be heard. “Let me do it, let me do it!”

“Stop! Let me do it!”

“Let go of it!”

“Hey, can’t you hear? Let go of it!”

“From Wang Xinkai’s distress, +299!”

“From Fu Hongxue’s distress, +188!”

“From Nozo Min’s distress…”

“From…”

All the team mates in the group were on the verge of collapse. Who the heck is this player. Ultimately, everyone was numb, “Come, you do it! I am a dog if I even touch a strand of its hair!”

Three hours later, Wang Xinkai finally led the group to a clearing where they could rest. As for Lu Shu, his distress points finally hit 320,000!

Wang Xinkai sighed, “The sun is setting soon. If we could not find a clearing by then, we would have to clear out an empty spot ourselves. We are fortunate!”

Even though the trees here have firm roots which went deep down, they would have to clear the vegetation if they could not find a clearing.

Wang Xinkai was no blockhead, and was in fact an outstanding member in the Heavenly Network. To him, no matter how tedious it would be to clear the vegetation, it would still beat sleeping out in the forest.

The students roamed about freely in the clearing with a smile on their face. It had been an exceptionally smooth day, with a place to rest at night, on top of having somebody to fend off the wild animals for them…

However, everyone still felt a little uneasy when reminded of the wild animals today. It was indeed good not having to fight off the beasts themselves, but something was not quite right…

Wang Xinkai was equally relaxed. Smilingly, he told everyone, “Whoever wants to use the latrine should go now. There’s no tree for you all to do your business at night. Also, remember to go in pairs. The wild animals are most likely on their way here by now. Prepare yourself for battle when you return, we have to chase away the wild animals that come to this safe zone before we can sleep in peace.”

His words were humorous enough. The Daoyuan class students gave an understanding smile and went into the woods in pairs to do their business.

Lu Shu saw suddenly that the spy, whose name was Li Li, walking into the forest too. Also, he went in alone. Chuckling, Lu Shu started following him.
