Divine Card Creator Chapter 168 - Help Me Beat Someone Up!

Chapter 168: Help Me Beat Someone Up!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The competition ended.
People from Zi Yang College carried the boy away. Even as he left, the boy wore a dazed expression and had not come to his senses…
Obviously…
He could not figure out why he lost.
He could not understand why Lu Ming was that powerful either!
Wasn’t he a Card Creator?
The team leader said before that a Combat Card Creator was also a Card Creator?!
How could…
How could this happen?
This was the first time that Xiaoyan had doubts about his profession.
In the past, he opted for this profession because it was all-round. There was an overall balance in speed, strength, and physique. It was powerful and also excellent at attacking, defending and escaping!
Aside from having a weaker long-distance ability…
He could accept this point.
However…
He lost to a Card Creator today. Furthermore, it was the close combat area that he was most proficient at, and at the time when he utilized the Energy Combat Outfit!
It… It turned out that an Energy Warrior was that weak?
What was the point of cultivating then?
At this very moment…
The people at Zi Yang College did not realize that the worldview of this super genius, who had achieved three-star level despite having cultivated only for a short time, was on the verge of collapsing…
…
Lu Ming stepped down from the stage.
Cheez!
Cheez!
Blood was spurting from his body.
Lu Ming felt very helpless too.
Although his strong body was healing itself continuously and his sister’s Sword Aura was already gentle enough, casting the Sword Plunge still made him spewed blood like no nobody’s business.
This crappy swordplay…
Lu Ming sighed deeply.
He had already tried his best to use all the swordplay knowledge learned during the legacy to refine this ability. However, the outcome was still as such…
There was only a refinement of one percent!
The Sword Plunge technique was very mature and it was not something that Lu Ming could change now.
Therefore…
Cheez!
Cheez!
Blood was still spurting.
“That was amazing!”
Looking at Lu Ming, who was walking and spurting blood at the same time, Zhang Xiaopang blocked one stream of his blood curiously, only to discover blood spurting out from another part of his body again.
“Doesn’t it hurt?”
Liu Yuan was worried at the sight of this.
Was he really fine?
This…
The amount of blood lost was too much.
“It’s okay.”
Lu Ming sighed.
It hurt a little but it was bearable. After all, he had an extremely tough physique now and could still endure a slight loss of blood.
Very soon…
The wounds on his body had healed gradually and blood was no longer spurting out.
…
The audience.
People were astounded as they watched Lu Ming leave.
Many more consecutive matches would be held today. However, they could not bring themselves to continue watching. This was because the combat between Lu Ming and Xiaoyan was too stunning!
Especially—
Lu Ming!
Xiaoyan was only fourteen years old, was a three-star peak cultivator and had mastered surmounting ability. He was the super genius in everyone’s imagination. However, who would expect that…
He would be defeated thoroughly by Lu Ming?
Especially, Lu Ming was a Card Creator! Damn! Furthermore, it was under the circumstance whereby he almost ran out of cards. He actually wrecked the Zi Yang College’s meticulous scheme of!
Was a Combat Card Creator really that powerful?!
Well…
After all, switching to the profession required such stringent criteria…
“But Lu Ming is also badly wounded.”
“I can tell. Although he won, he is spurting blood all over. Sigh, it’s really not easy.”
“Isn’t that so?”
The audience was filled with emotions.
On the other hand, those who could tell what this move was kept silent.
Sword Plunge…
Lu Ming already knew Sword Plunge!
Was that legacy already out in the open?
…
At this very moment…
Somewhere.
Wang Tianjun was having a meal. The happy family of three was enjoying time spent together.
Well…
After a recent period of hard work, Wang Tianjun finally convinced his wife and she reluctantly agreed to let their son cultivate.
Before their eyes.
They were also watching the School Championship Competition.
However, the local School Championship Competition was really boring. After all, this was the preliminary round and all kinds of weird characters participated in it. In addition, a few teams only had one or two-star members…
It was simply embarrassing!
The school had four cohorts of students but they could not even send a three-star cultivator?!
What was the use of keeping them?
“I’ll watch Qing Ming City’s.”
Wang Xuan switched the channel.
The live broadcast seemed to be lagging a lot. Just as he switched the channel, he saw the confrontation between Lu Ming and Xiaoyan. Before he could speak, he saw that shocking scene.
One fist dropped and there was world peace.
Then…
Cheez!
Cheez!
Lu Ming’s body started spurting blood.
Wang Tianjun had a bewildered look on his face. Wait a minute. Wasn’t that his family’s Sword Plunge?
Damn it!
How could it be possible that Lu Ming knew Sword Plunge?!
Clearly, this was a secret that was only passed down in his family!
Bam!
Mrs Wong instantly flew into a rage.
“Wang Tianjun!”
“You actually have a mistress outside!”
Mrs Wang yelled furiously.
“I don’t… Listen to me…”
Wang Tianjun had a dumbstruck expression too.
Bang! Bang!
The house turned into a huge mess.
Wang Xuan seemed to be used to this kind of scene. He quietly picked up the dishes with his chopsticks and watched Lu Ming as the latter gradually walked down the stage. His heart was in awe.
Sword Plunge…
Did Lu Ming pick it up from that card?
However…
Clearly, that was a four-star card!
In addition, a card was a card. He could only learn the lines on it. Lu Ming was a Card Creator. How could he decipher things related to Swordsman in the card?
He had been cultivating very diligently.
He had gone all out!
Fervently!
Therefore, he could master Sword Plunge. But he…
Heh.
He was Lu Ming indeed.
Lu Ming, I will definitely catch up with you!
Definitely!
After a long time…
The house quieted down.
Wang Tianjun stepped out with a furious expression and bruises all over. “This damn Lu Ming, he actually dares to steal my family’s legacy. I’m going to look for him to settle the scores!”
“I’m the one who gave it to him,” Wang Xuan said calmly.
Wang Tianjun was dumbstruck. You gave it to him?
Son!
That was the legacy!
That was a secret!
You can’t be cheated by a man until you lose your rationality…
Wait a minute.
Why would his son be cheated by a man?
He heard that his son had a very messy private life when he was in Qing Ming City. Could it be that he liked men?!
“Don’t tell me you…”
Wang Tianjun was scared out of his wits.
“Dad.”
Wang Xuan did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Yes, I gave it to him when I was in Qing Ming City. He saved my life once. So, I taught him this. At that time, you didn’t say that this was the legacy…”
“Oh, that’s true.”
Wang Tianjun remembered.
At that time, his son did not know about the legacy. He had overlooked this point.
Alright, alright. With such a twist in the plot, the legacy was not considered a big deal anymore. As long as his son was not bent, that would do…
“Pay more attention in the future.”
Wang Tianjun sighed.
“Understood.”
Wang Xuan nodded slightly.
Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
Wang Tianjun walked in front of the mirror and glanced at himself. He had become a swollen pig head after receiving his wife’s beatings. Afterward, he suddenly came to his senses and he glanced at Wang Xuan sullenly, “Since you’re the one who passed it to Lu Ming, why didn’t you put in a few good words for me just now?”
“Uh—”
Wang Xuan paused a moment. “Judging from your expression earlier, you seem to be getting a kick out of this…”
Wang Tianjun was speechless.
In the living room.
Suddenly, everything quieted down.
One could hear the sound of a pin dropping.
…
At this very moment…
In Qing Ming City.
The competition had ended.
Lu Ming brought the few salted fishes back.
Today’s situation was still quite risky. After all, under the circumstances of not exposing his trump card and not hurting anyone, it was harder to win the competition. Hence…
He decided to create more cards so that it would not be that hard on him.
This time…
He decided to create some of the Full Moon Sword Aura and Autumn Water Sword Aura. It would be easier to use a combination of the two. Finally, he was slightly more serious about this competition.
He did not know why either.
This was supposed to be a very easy competition but the difficulty level shot up when it came to him!
The original plan of thirty cards had already exceeded its limit. He had thrown out twenty cards in just one match. He had also thrown out a lot of cards during the pre-selection!
He took a closer look at the statistics of the average combat ability last year.
Pre-selection — Two-star beginner.
Preliminary Round — Two-star intermediate.
Semi-final — Two-star advance.
…
They only reached three-star peak after seven rounds!
Moreover, this was already the fight between the top hundred schools. But, the outcome now? Lu Ming had to face two three-star peak cultivators during his first round and they even had a surmounting ability…
Was this a joke?!
He would not believe it if someone were to say that no one was rigging this!
Tsk tsk.
The judges nowadays…
He really had to be more serious now. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing if he were to lose, right?
Actually, today was a close brush.
Hehe.
He was almost forced to use the Original Card…
Well…
Next time, he would bury them with the Sword Auras!
Who told you guys to be that naughty with me!
Hence…
After Lu Ming went back, he created cards seriously.
However…
He did not know that, at this point in time, a mysterious video was making its rounds on social media platforms online. The long headlines were even more eye-catching…
“Under the Gaze of Ten Thousand, He Actually did that Kind of Thing to an Underage Boy! The Unspeakable Spatter of Fluids! — Viewpoint on Combat Card Creator’s Crime and Punishment!”
“Hell… What kind of video is this?”
“I don’t know… But judging from the look of it, it seems to be about that Combat Card Creator?”
“Look.”
People clicked into it curiously.
It was not merely because of the huge hype deliberately created by those headlines but also the current popular trending words on the web — Combat Card Creator!
In the video.
They saw an extremely stunning scene.
Zi Yang College’s plan and Lu Ming’s ultimate counterattack. They saw Xiaoyan, this one-of-a-kind genius’s outburst and also saw…
Lu Ming descending from the sky!
It was astounding.
Thereafter…
When Lu Ming hit the ground hard, the scene froze.
The boy had a dazed look in his eyes as he lay on the ground and Lu Ming was kneeling in front of him. From a certain angle, it was filmed as if Lu Ming was lying on top of him…
And…
The fresh blood stains spattered on the boy’s lower body.
Everyone was shocked!
Who had won?
What happened in the earlier scene?!
You guys are in a fighting competition. But why did you give people the déjà vu of an action-romance movie?!
Nobody knew.
Because…
The video ended at this point in time.
It was actually gone!
When the people in the forums saw this, they exploded in rage.
“Please send a blade to the host (Send blade is akin to a ‘death threat’, expressing one’s displeasure and is mostly used in the context of AGCN – Animation, Comic, Game, Novel).”
“This is too much!”
“It’s the same feeling that I get when I downloaded a 40 Gigabit movie last time but ended up with an eighty-episode “Calabash Brothers: Save the Grandpa” (The “Calabash Brothers” is an animated TV series created by Shanghai Animation Film Studio. It won wide acclaim among audiences after its first release in 1986.) when I clicked on it…”
“I’m so furious!”
“They are more hateful than those authors who plagiarize!”
“Are there any big shots who were at the event? Please tell me who won in the end?”
“God knows.”
Everyone had a perplexed look on their faces.
All of a sudden, they left their contact and begged for related links.
That obscure thread actually became famous suddenly!
The popularity was getting more and more frightening.
At this point in time, some locals from Qing Ming City spoke out. However, not all accounts were true. Some so-called Internet celebrities and influencers spun stories to increase their popularity.
All of a sudden, no one knew what the truth was.
“I heard that Lu Ming ravished the boy…”
“Who are you kidding? You even believe the news from UB web browser? Clearly, I saw is the boy using Soul Seducing Skill to restrict Lu Ming when he realized that he could not win.”
“Are you any better? You actually believe in WY News?”
“Well…”
“Actually, Lu Ming beat Xiaoyan with Sword Plunge… I witnessed it when I was there,”
someone wrote weakly.
“What is Sword Plunge? Where’s the Sword Aura? Clearly, Lu Ming was only left with one Autumn Water Sword Aura! You guys are trying to gain popularity. There’s no basis for this at all.”
“Exactly, I stand by the Soul Seducing Skill!”
…
After a long time…
The news spread to Lu Ming.
Lu Ming, who was in the midst of creating cards, had a perplexed expression too.
“You’re not aware of this?
Zhang Xiaopang was shocked. “Brother Lu, you’re popular again.”
“Huh?”
Lu Ming was puzzled.
“It’s true.”
Zhang Xiaopang was astonished. “After you thrashed the Summoner profession, I have been thinking of which profession you will thrash next. But I never imagined… that you would thrash the BL industry (BL is a genre of fictional media originating in Japan that features homoerotic relationships between male characters).
Do you know that they are begging for weblinks of Xiaoyan and you?”
“Huh?”
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
Why was it that messy?
Hence…
He went online to browse the forums and his face instantly darkened, especially when he saw that video. Although the sender chose to be anonymous, this familiar style of editing…
It was pointless to ask.
The president must have done it!
After this guy was beaten up, he had been idling around in a wheelchair every day, starting to ponder over such things. In the end, this was the outcome.
He could not be bothered to call him to communicate anymore.
Seriously…
It was useless anyway…
As the president of the Card Creators Association, one could not blame him for creating publicity for Card Creators. However, this avenue and method really deserved a beating.
Well…
After pausing a moment, Lu Ming still made a call.
“Long time no see.”
He heard a familiar sound.
