Chapter 390 - Damn. This Will Do As Well???
390 Damn. This Will Do As Well???
Tian Du City.
Sword Card Master Association.
Everyone gathered in the conference room and glanced at one another.
Their association had become popular.
This was a good thing.
However, the way that this happened…
Lu Ming felt very sad.
I didn’t want this to happen either! These developments make it seem as if we are a damned cult…
“Master.
“I received a written notification informing us to resolve this as soon as possible…”
Li Haoran looked serious.
Lu Ming was speechless.
How the hell could they resolve this?!
They were not the ones who caused this to happen!
What did this have to do with the Sword Card Master Association?!
“What if we say that this secret skill is fake?” Li Ergou suggested.
“I’ve already said that.”
Li Haoran sighed. “The reporters say that since we’re that anxious to explain, it must be because we’re trying to cover up something, which makes it more conspicuous…”
“They actually guessed it right,” Li Ergou exclaimed in shock.
Lu Ming looked sullen.
To hell with it!
Did you guys manage to guess that this secret skill is fake?!
“We have to deal with this situation in a different way.”
Lu Ming pondered for a moment. “The cultivators wanted to try this because, first, there is no cost involved and second, there are no consequences. Anyone can try or play around with it. As long as we can resolve these two points, I believe everyone will think twice before trying. The situation will then be dealt with.”
“Hmm…”
Li Mei pondered deeply for a moment. “Why don’t we send them a legal letter?”
Lu Ming turned green.
Hell… Do you know the outcome of the last time they sent a legal letter?! Do you know the consequences of offending the masses?
Think about it.
In the future, everyone’s pet phrase would change when they were cultivating.
“Ah, you look like a Sword Card Master when you cultivate.”
“You’re the one who looks like a Sword Card Master!”
“I dare you to say it one more time?”
Crash!
Crash!
The two people would start a brawl.
Anyway.
They would be dead meat if they were to send a legal letter!!
“Absolutely not!”
Lu Ming objected on the spot.
“Then…
“Make them pregnant?”
Li Ergou contemplated. They say that they won’t get pregnant by trying it? They would be frightened if they became pregnant!
Lu Ming was speechless.
He suddenly had an urge to annihilate the sect.
Seriously…
“Cough, cough. Master, I’m just using an analogy.”
Li Ergou coughed. “The analogy here is — the outcome. I feel that the one who creates a problem should be the one to solve it. We have to start with junior sister.”
“Oh?”
Lu Ming’s gaze landed on the female disciple and he instantly sneered. “Do you mean to make her pregnant?”
Li Ergou was obviously stunned.
Immediately afterward.
He glanced at the female disciple and then said gingerly, “I don’t have a problem with this. I just don’t know if Junior Sister…”
“Get lost!”
Lu Ming kicked this guy and sent him flying away on the spot.
Wishful thinking!
“You, come here.”
Lu Ming pointed to the female disciple.
“Okay.”
The female disciple trembled with fear.
Since the Snow Mountain Sect was gone, she knew that she was done for. She could only confess honestly and cooperate with the investigations. This was the only way that she could survive…
“Master.”
The female disciple glanced at Li Ergou and then at Lu Ming. She then said weakly, “If it is you, I am willing to do it.”
Li Ergou was speechless.
Lu Ming turned sullen.
Damn it. What are your brains made of?!
“This started because of you.”
Lu Ming sighed. “Tell them that this secret skill is false and deliberately made up to hoodwink people. It is a fake skill!”
“Okay.”
The female disciple heaved a sigh of relief.
“Right.”
Lu Ming suddenly asked, “Did Crazyracing Sun contact you?!”
“No.”
The female disciple shook her head.
“Okay,” Lu Ming said calmly.
Hence…
The female disciple took a deep breath and stepped out of the Sword Card Master Association. She then spoke to the reporters according to Lu Ming’s instructions. However, before she could finish her words…
“Hurry up, watch the news!”
“Something has happened!”
“What’s the matter?”
The few reporters glanced at one another and were suddenly excited. “Young lady, you’re saying this because you have been threatened by Lu Ming, right?!
“Will Lu Ming call the police to punish you?
“What are your thoughts? Someone has successfully given birth to a card spirit.”
The female disciple was confused.
Again…
Someone succeeded again?!
At this very moment…
Everyone at the Sword Card Master Association was also puzzled. Simultaneously, everyone glanced at one another, at the crazy reporters and then at Lu Ming.
Lu Ming was a little puzzled.
Seriously…
To hell with it…
How did someone succeed?!
“Let’s take a look.”
Lu Ming accessed the online community and saw the latest and trending thread — The birth of the card spirit. Henceforth, everyone is a Sword Card Master!
There was a video.
An online anchor successfully gave birth to a card spirit when she was reciting. This caused a sensation. According to sources, she became famous overnight.
“It’s fake.”
Xiao-Xiaojian confirmed this with one glance.
“Indeed.”
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
With Xiaobai’s research, the birth of the card spirit module had rigorous reference data. Only the disciples of the Sword Card Master could succeed in this!
The card spirit corresponded with the kind of people summoning it.
The card spirit corresponded with specific characteristics.
Some card spirits had higher chances of success!
And so on.
Xiaobai’s research was very thorough.
The disciples of the Sword Card Master Association had also analyzed these data before they could successfully get their card spirit. It was completely unlike this online anchor who claimed that their card spirit was born naturally.
The chances of this occurring were extremely low!
However…
They couldn’t handle the masses!
The cultivators in all of Tian Du City were trying it and many people began to cheat. There had to be some successful cases?
Hence…
The next day.
Another cultivator gave birth to a card spirit and caused a sensation. People then started to believe that card spirit could really be attained that way!
Afterward…
That person began a card spirit training class and it was packed with people.
When others saw this, they thought, “This will do as well?”
Hence…
There was the emergence of another group of people who ‘gave birth to card spirit naturally’ and a huge number of training classes.
“Card Spirit Training! Guaranteed Success! Money-back guarantee!”, “21 Days Card Spirit Crash Course!”, “Five Days Simulation, Three Days Accelerated Programme!”, “The Birth of the Card Spirit – From the Basics to Proficiency!”, “The Birth of the Card Spirit: The Importance of the Tone of Reciting!”, “Analyzing the Meaning of the Birth of the Card Spirit from The Life of Xiaobai”.
Similar courses were everywhere.
Each lecturer had a suspended Original Card with them…
It was very trendy!
The lecturers would give one a word-by-word breakdown of the secret incantation “Original Card, Original Card…” and teach the tone and pitch, grammatical structure and meaning of each word. It was to increase the chances of success for the birth of a card spirit!
At this moment.
The developments of the situation did not seem to have anything to do with the Sword Card Master Association anymore.
…
At this very moment…
Sword Card Master Association.
“Master?”
Li Haoran felt very worried.
Seriously…
The birth of the card spirit was the foundation of the Sword Card Master Association! If other associations were to master this, it would be pointless for the Sword Card Master Association to exist?!
“Don’t worry.”
Lu Ming was very calm.
The foundation of the Sword Card Master Association was the card spirit?
That was right!
To be more precise, the strength of the Sword Card Master Association was built on the card spirit! The Sword Card Master Association was that powerful because of the card spirit!
However…
The birth of the card spirit was very simple.
Look.
As long as they could shove a spirit body inside, that would do, although it was quite costly.
However, there was someone who could do it. Someone would certainly think of it.
For example…
The wealthy and willful Elementalist Association?
Nevertheless, why didn’t any of the associations use the birth of the spirit body as one of their core abilities? This was because a spirit body born in the wilderness could not be controlled!
Spirit bodies were also living things.
They would be imprisoned in the Original Card if they were shoved into it.
Who could tolerate this?
In the past, what was Xiao-Xiaojian’s reaction when he was captured? It banged itself in the card until the lightning cracks shone everyday before it finally conceded!
Why did those associations give up?
This was because they discovered that they had to spend a large amount of time and effort to maintain the spirit body, nurture the spirit body and keep up the relationship!
Therefore, they could only give up.
Right from the beginning, the Sword Card Master Association had provided the perfect teaching guide. Xiao-Xiaobai’s guidance, the crack repair secret skill researched by Li Haoran and so on.
All of these were the basics!
Furthermore…
Xiao-Xiaojian, this ancient sword spirit, was also in the spirit body department. Who would dare to create trouble!
Even if anything were to occur, Brother Cat was here to support him!
Xiao-Xiaojian, this boastful guy, would wobble at the sight of Brother Cat. When Brother Cat emanated its aura, all the card spirits in the entire Sword Card Master Association would kneel and call it father.
It was true as well.
This was because during Father’s Day two days ago, he personally brought Brother Cat’s aura and made a round at the spirit body department…
He had attained countless filial sons then.
Cough.
Anyway.
Spirit bodies were also living things.
Spirit bodies needed teaching and guidance as well.
Xiaobai provided support for all of this at the spirit body department of the Sword Card Master Association. Therefore, all the spirit bodies executed these so-called secret skills abidingly…
From self-cultivation to Card Kinesis Flight!
The spirit bodies had to understand — The more powerful their master was, the more powerful they would be! Mutual-respect! This was then a card spirit of the Sword Card Master vocation!
Therefore…
Without all of this, what would happen to those card spirits born in the wilderness which had been shoved into the vocation core?
“It should be bustling now?”
Lu Ming sipped his tea quietly. “Smells good.”
…
In the afternoon.
The vocation core of a card spirit training class lecturer exploded during the class. The spirit body fled and this caused a huge commotion!
As such…
The local police had to be out in force to capture the spirit body and prevent it from causing severe damage. That lecturer was arrested on the spot for disrupting law and order.
At the same time.
Somewhere.
Something happened to two lecturers and this also caused a huge commotion.
Just at his moment, people realized the severity of the issue. The police had detained all the so-called ‘card spirit lecturers’!
They witnessed the ‘bloom of fireworks’ in the detention center.
That was right…
Almost all the spirit bodies had fled!
“What is happening?”
“I don’t know!”
“The vocation core self-destructed and everyone is crippled!”
“Yes, clearly, the card spirit has already been born. What is happening? Tell me, is there a problem with the secret skill of the Sword Card Master Association?”
“That is possible.”
Everyone was terrified.
Hence…
The reciting voices which filled Tian Du City finally ceased.
“I heard that the secret skill of the Sword Card Master Association is fake!”
“I heard about it too!”
“Must be freaking kidding me!”
Everyone was shocked.
“Is there something wrong with your brain? When people tell you that the secret skill that the Snow Mountain Sect came up with is false. You guys refuse to listen.”
Everyone came to their senses. That seemed to be the case.
The Sword Card Master Association had been emphasizing this but they did not listen. Therefore, they had to suffer in the end!
However…
After this storm, they were very skeptical whether the so-called auto-cultivating card spirit truly existed?
On the day itself.
All the training class advertisements were removed!
All the training class lecturers were arrested!
A large number of cultivators in Tian Du City were wailing…
Everyone knew clearly that the matter about the spirit body was coming to an end…
However…
At this very moment…
A headline titled ‘College Student Enrollment: Do You Want to Have a ‘Card Spirit’?! Come to the Crossroads College Affiliated to the Sword Card Master Association! You Will Find the True Card Spirit Over Here!’!
The article gave a detailed introduction on the card spirits of the Sword Card Master Association and the various powerful abilities.
Self-cultivation!
Food Delivery!
Card Kinesis Flight!
It can do everything that you dreamed of!
Riding on the storm, the article gave a detailed introduction on the relationship between the cultivating trainee and the cultivator. They had a symbiosis relationship for life and their bond was even stronger than the living creature summoned by the Summoner!
As a result, everyone understood what the real card spirit was!
Candidates of the college entrance examination, “We can join the crossroads branch college!”
Cultivators, “We can join the Sword Card Master Association!”
…
The publication of this article caused a huge sensation in Tian Du City.
During the time when the various training organizations had been banned, various lecturers arrested and everyone was on their guard, this advertisement simply struck a chord in the people’s hearts!
“Sword Card Master Association…”
“I heard that they have very high requirements on talent.”
“It’s okay. We can send our children to the crossroads college! We can enjoy the benefits of a favorable position then.”
“It makes sense.”
Everyone was talking about it.
Hence…
The Sword Card Master Association widened its reach again.
The popularity of student enrollment multiplied many times!
According to sources, the crossroads college had already appeared in this year’s students’ top hundred favorite college list!
…
“Master is amazing!”
The disciples were amazed.
He is Master, indeed. He easily resolved such a crisis and in the end, it became an advertisement for the school enrollment. He is too formidable!
“Humph!”
“Zhang Yang should learn from this!’
Li Haoran pursed his lips.
Look.
This is operations!
Look at Zhang Yang who keeps targeting his own people?!
Hence…
The storm of the secret skill leakage had come to a close temporarily. The Sword Card Master Association had also welcomed a new batch of disciple applications. Regrettably, none of them met the mark!
They did not even qualify for the second generation disciples!!!
Therefore…
Lu Ming had to pin his hopes on the students taking the college entrance examination.
However…
That night.
When Lu Ming was about to begin researching the Art of Equalization, he suddenly received a message sent by a card spirit of one of his disciples…
Yes.
A card spirit of one of his disciples!!!
Lu Ming was taken aback.
Although the card spirit had been given a communication device each, these card spirits were still very fearful of Lu Ming because of Brother Cat’s aura…
It actually contacted him on its own accord?
Hence…
Lu Ming opened the message curiously.
“President.
“Hello, I’m card spirit, Xiao-Xiaoji.
“This is what happened.
“One of my card spirit friend saw your advertisement and felt that the sword spirits in the Sword Card Master Association are getting along very harmoniously. They are also well treated. Therefore, it hopes to become a card spirit here…
“What do you think?”
Lu Ming froze completely.
This…
This will do as well?!!!
He continued to read the message. Besides the introduction by Student Xiao-Xiaoji, there was a profile of that spirit body friend.
——
Name: Elizaba (can be renamed as Xiao-Xiaoli)
Identity: Rabbit spirit
Star level: Six-star
Introduction: Hello, president. I’m a rabbit spirit which has been born for two and a half years. I’m good at singing, hopping and escaping. I know how to cook, act cute and have experience pretending to be humans and doing live broadcasting. I have a good temperament and don’t have any bad habits. I’m often hunted down. I saw the Association’s advertisement and am thus specially applying to join the association.
Combat ability: Because I don’t like fighting, my combat ability is weaker by half a star when compared to my peers.
Requirement: I hope to find a quiet cultivator who has a good temperament like myself. I won’t shun the person for having a low cultivation level or poor talent. It is fine as long as he or she treats me well.

Lu Ming was speechless.
