Chapter 88: Average Scores
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The divine coming-of-age ceremony was finally over. The audience members who had come to participate in the meeting began to disperse. The legendary Heavenly Wood God also left, and the members of the various major families departed as well.
Meanwhile, Wei Huo’s quest system was updated with another quest. “Return to the Divine Kindergarten’s cafeteria to receive free food in 3 days and 14 hours.”
There was a countdown. Every 60 seconds, his time would decrease by one minute.
Wei Huo immediately understood that this plotline had ended. He could use the rest of the time he had left to move about freely and explore the map.
Wei Huo imagined millions of players entering the Divine Realm in the future.
Wei Huo followed Ye Yunxiao when he saw him leave. He wanted to know how Ye Yunxiao would deal with the Epic-ranked creatures.
Ye Yunxiao chose to fly instead of taking the Big Jellyfish. Wei Huo followed him quietly. Soon, he arrived at a deserted street with Ye Yunxiao.
Ye Yunxiao continued flying. This was a deserted street, and the buildings on both sides were old and worn out. They came across normal Gods who were selling snacks and provisions at stalls on their way. Soon, Wei Huo saw Ye Yunxiao walk into a small alley. There was a small door at the end of the alley that looked like it led to a small warehouse.
Wei Huo was confused. Was this his residence?
Right at that moment, a divine shadow descended from the sky. It was Han Yun!
Han Yun suddenly landed in front of Ye Yunxiao and blocked his path. The two of them started talking, but no one could know what Ye Yunxiao was saying. Han Yun stamped her foot angrily and flew away.
Wei Huo was confused.
Could… these two Gods be having an affair?
“How long do you plan on following me? Come with me!” Before opening the door, Ye Yunxiao stopped in his tracks and spoke without looking back.
Wei Huo was confused. How had he been discovered? He walked forward and said, “It’s me!”
Ye Yunxiao was shocked. “F*ck, there’s really someone here!”
Wei Huo was speechless.
So you didn’t know if anyone was following you.
“It’s you?” Ye Yunxiao was confused when he saw Wei Huo. “Why are you following me?”
Wei Huo replied, “No reason. I’m just curious. Where did you put those Epic-ranked creatures?”
“Oh, that’s what you wanted to ask?” Ye Yunxiao shrugged. “What else could I do? I just sold them all!”
“Sold them?” Wei Huo frowned. “You sold so many Epic-ranked creatures? Who did you sell them to?”
Ye Yunxiao said nonchalantly, “No matter how many Epic-ranked creatures I have, it’s meaningless to me. What I need is sufficient Divine Stones for my cultivation, so I sell all the Epic-ranked creatures. As for who I sell them to, I naturally sell them to a fool!”
“You don’t have any money?” Wei Huo was confused. “But you have so many Divine Pet Spaces.”
Ye Yunxiao smiled bitterly. “I borrowed those from other Gods. Do you think a rich God would be living in such a place?”
Wei Huo was stunned. Are you that pathetic?
Ye Yunxiao opened the door. “Come in first. If there’s no place to sit, just sit on the bed!”
Wei Huo walked into Ye Yunxiao’s residence. It was a very small house with a single bed, a closet, and a small table. There was no floor, and the ground was uneven. There were no floor tiles either, and the walls were not decorated with bricks. The ceiling was a plain roof, but at least there was a lamp.
Ye Yunxiao opened the closet. There were only three sets of clothes inside. The rest of the contents were all books, but two-thirds of them were notebooks. Wei Huo found the words on the covers familiar.
He pointed at the notebooks and asked, “Can I see them?”
Ye Yunxiao grabbed a random notebook and handed it to Wei Huo. “Take a look!”
However, it was a notebook in a language that Ye Yunxiao did not recognize.
Wei Huo took the book and opened it, only to find out that it was written in Chinese. He asked, “Why isn’t it written in the Divine Language?”
Ye Yunxiao said proudly, “This is not a God’s book. I found it by chance. I spent hundreds of years to successfully understand and study this language. I learned a lot of useful things from it.”
Wei Huo was speechless.
The translation of words was a complicated, long process. However, as long as one found a pattern, the speed of the translation would increase.
Gods, who had a long lifespan, had sufficient time to decipher a language.
Wei Huo flipped through the notebook. The content of the notebook was unusual. It was about the soul’s secrets, the structure of the imposing aura, and the relationship between one’s spirit and matter. However, Wei Huo did not see any experiments or verifications. He only found conjectures, and the word ‘probably’ was used many times.
The words were all standardized and seemed like they were printed. However, one could tell after taking a closer look that each word was slightly different. Plus, one could feel the dents in the words by touching them. This meant that someone had written this personally.
Wei Huo observed the style of the words and sentences carefully. However, he could not tell if the author was a man or a woman. The handwriting was standard, and the strokes were gentle and elegant. It was similar to a girl’s handwriting, but each word was strong enough to penetrate the back of the paper.
Wei Huo flipped through the pages carefully, but Ye Yunxiao was confused. “Do you understand?”
Wei Huo denied this immediately. “No, no, no. I don’t understand this. I was just flipping through it casually.”
Ye Yunxiao pouted. Who are you lying to?
Ye Yunxiao turned around and carried all the notebooks outside. He then said, “I found these in a box. There is a total of 15 books. Look at this one. It’s very weird. It seems like a diary.”
Wei Huo grabbed the notebook in shock. This notebook was not ordinary. The cover was pink and light blue, and there was a three-digit password lock.
Wei Huo was confused. Why were such things in the Divine Realm? Why had they been kept in such good condition?
Wei Huo opened the notebook and saw the date on the first page: August 25th, 2016.
Wei Huo scrunched his brows. He had been in his second year of high school at the time. This handwriting was slightly different from the one he had seen before. The strokes were gentle but they lacked strength. They were very consistent and had characteristics of female handwriting.
Wei Huo looked at the content and saw that it was short. The following words were written in the notebook: “It’s so frustrating. School has started, and Class 122 has been assigned homework. I haven’t even done my summer homework. It’s so annoying!”
This person was in my class?
Wei Huo was confused. He looked around but did not find a name in the notebook. He continued reading the girl’s diary.
On the second page, the diary jumped to the 1st of September. The girl had written: “There are two big shots in class. One of them ranks in the top three in Physics, and the other ranks first in English. Her name is Li Xiaoyue. However, someone must have dragged her down in class. She’s not like me. I get average scores in every subject.”
Wei Huo shook his head. What gains? It’s definitely not me anyway. I know my own limitations.
On the third page, the date was October 3rd. The girl had written, “There’s a handsome guy in class. I heard he’s rich and he’s a good student. He’s also very gentle. He and that other guy were actually middle school classmates.”
Wei Huo was confused.
Anyway, that’s not me!
On October 4th, the girl had written on the fourth page, “I’m in a bad mood and I don’t want to write!”
Wei Huo was speechless.
Young lady, you’re very mischievous!
On the fifth page, which was dated October 8th, the young lady seemed very unhappy. “What’s wrong with playing games? Would you be affecting your studies by playing games on a Saturday? You even accepted my phone call…”
Wei Huo flipped through the diary. She had written three pages on gaming and studying.
