Kapitel 4: Starting Resources
Redakteur: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Li Pu had once doubted whether his grandfather was his biological grandfather.
The reason was that this old man was very ruthless. Li Pu had been undergoing high-intensity hellish physical training since he was a child.
In the beginning, it was just ordinary lifting of iron and the horse stance. Later, it quickly evolved into weight-bearing mountain climbing, long-distance swimming, and so on. In short, his training was getting worse and worse day by day.
When he was 12 years old, he would often be thrown into the mountains and deep forests to fight all kinds of wild beasts alone.
At first, even though Li Pu had complained a lot, his grandfather would not be soft-hearted and would even beat him up.
Hence, after Li Pu complained a few times, he gave up.
It wasn't that he was afraid of being beaten up, but that the old man had more terrifying means than beating him up.
Such as deducting his allowance.
It was simply heart-wrenching.
In any case, his grandfather had told him that there was only one rule in their family: Only the strongest one had the right to speak.
Hence, Li Pu was determined to become stronger.
When he became stronger and faced his grandfather again, he would use his fist to smash his grandfather's nose.
Then, he would say, "Grandpa, I've grown up."
His grandfather would definitely be moved to tears.
Just imagining that scene made him happy.
However, before that, he still had to strengthen himself.
He would have to do so in secret. He couldn't let the villain, oh no, he couldn't let Grandpa find out and be on guard.
"This is the last one."
Li Pu touched the metal box in his hand. He was in a good mood now that he had a new plan.
All the new students who had officially entered the school would receive a gift box from the school, which contained some starting resources.
When he had obtained it from Teacher Baldy earlier, the other party had already roughly explained the use of the gift box.
Li Pu opened the box and saw two items.
One was a transparent crystal the size of a fist, shaped like a diamond. This was the crystal coin.
Picking it up, he could check the relevant numbers through the interface.
[1000]
In other words, it was a full 1000 crystal coins.
"Western Capital University is quite generous..."
Li Pu studied the crystal for a while, then put it away in his storage space unskillfully.
1000 crystal coins was not a small amount.
He had heard that in private transactions, this was equivalent to about 10000 Federation dollars.
His family's financial situation was considered relatively good. When he was in high school, his monthly pocket money was less than 200 Federation dollars.
If he remembered correctly, there were about 1000 new students this year.
In other words, just this small gift box alone had cost the school nearly 10 million Federation dollars.
As expected of a Summoner Academy, it was indeed generous.
As for the other item, it was a ball that emitted orange light.
[Random Skill Light Orb: it contains an F-grade to C-grade skill.]
The Skill Light Orb contained a skill that could be learned by a summoned beast.
As for the skill and level, no one knew what they were.
This item was also quite valuable.
Although the probability was very small, it could still give a C-grade skill.
He heard that 99% of the new students obtained F-grade skills.
Li Pu thought for a moment and had an idea.
He wondered if he could use this Skill Light Orb on himself.
This was because he had half the summoned beast bloodline, which was also known as the bloodline of a foreign race.
It was because of this bloodline that the blind date had come.
If it was just a normal human girl, Li Pu wouldn't be so against attending blind dates.
However, the dozens of blind dates arranged by her grandfather were either mixed-blood humans or someone of a foreign race.
The foreign race was a general term for other intelligent species besides humans.
The world's mutation two hundred years ago had also led to the arrival of foreign races to the blue planet.
Some of them descended through the Spatial Rift like magical beasts, while some appeared as summoned beasts.
However, most of the foreign races lived outside the Federation and had their own territories.
The biggest difference between them and magical beasts was that they could communicate with humans in a friendly manner, and they could also become Summoners.
In fact, Li Pu didn't think he had any problems getting along with them.
However, he really couldn't talk about marriage.
Beast ears and beast tails were actually not that bad. They originally had a very strong human bloodline, and now it was a common thing for humans to marry those with beast ears and beast tails.
The point was that someone with beast ears and tail was not qualified to be on his grandfather's blind date list.
To be qualified, at the very least, one had to be a slime lady with slime blood, whom Li Pu had seen on the list before.
Who would want to marry a wife who could change into any shape at any time?
Another example was the mechanical lady. She was challenging all the physiological knowledge he had learned in his twelve years of compulsory education.
There were even hermaphrodite aliens who made him question who would be the bride and groom in the end.
However, this was all a little off-topic. What Li Pu wanted to know was if he could use the Skill Light Orb on himself since he was half a summoned beast.
In any case, with his Summoner talent [Friend of Magical Beasts], Scarecrow was destined to not lack skills.
He might as well use this skill orb to strengthen himself.
Li Pu put his thoughts into action immediately. He exerted some force and crushed the ball of light.
Buzzzzzz!
With a slight shake, the ball of light turned into a large amount of powder-like orange light.
The orange light was floating around him in a flocculent-like manner.
With a slight thought, the orange light condensed into various shapes in front of him.
As he was the one who had crushed the light orb, Li Pu could sense that it was completely under his control.
"What an intriguing experience."
After playing for a while, he felt that it was very interesting.
However, as he willed it, the orange light began to revolve around him again.
Moreover, it was spinning faster and faster.
Every time it spun, a small amount of light powder would touch his skin.
A faint warm current began to spread from the part of his skin that came into contact with the powder.
The light powder scattered to more and more places, and the warm current was also gradually increasing in strength.
By the time the light powder was fully injected into his body, Li Pu's body had already turned from warm to scorching.
"Phew..."
He let out a deep breath, and even his breath carried a faint white mist.
However, he didn't feel any discomfort. Instead, he felt an indescribable pleasure.
The warm current continued to flow in his body. Soon, Li Pu was covered in sweat.
However, at a certain moment, the heat flow suddenly disappeared without a trace.
"Has it ended?"
Li Pu's eyes lit up. He opened the panel that only he could see.
This time, he was much more skilled than before.
"It's a C-grade!"
With just a glance, he realized that his luck was off the charts.
However, after he finished looking at it, he fell silent.
This...
What kind of f*cking skill was that?
