The World of Darkness and Shadows.
When Lu Ming saw the figure leaving, he hurried to chase after it.
"Wait a minute!"
Lu Ming shouted.
It was a pity that the figure went further and further away.
"Stop right there!"
Lu Ming shouted.
However, the figure did not stop.
Lu Ming was enraged.
"Old Jiang!
"Xiao Bai is pregnant again!"
Lu Ming shouted.
The figure did not respond.
"Twins!
"A boy and a girl!"
Lu Ming shouted.
The figure still did not respond.
Lu Ming said, "My sister said that the child cannot have the surname Jiang! Both of them must have the surname Lu! "
The figure did not stop.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Lu Ming felt helpless as the figure went further and further away.
Damn!
Was Old Jiang that arrogant?
Even Xiao Bai's child could not stop him? He had chased after him the moment he saw that it was Old Jiang. In the end …
This guy ran faster and faster!
"He can't hear you shouting for him."
Xiao-Xiaojian said in disdain.
This was the World of Darkness and Shadows! This was not the real world. What was the point of shouting? At most, the words in the dialog box would be one size bigger!
It did not matter how high the dialog box above your head was!
It was also behind your head!
It was impossible for Jiang Feng to see it!
Are you stupid?!
"No."
Lu Ming squinted his eyes. "I feel that he saw it."
He had a feeling that Old Jiang saw him but … he was afraid that he would share his money with him. Therefore, he ran very fast … and disappeared in an instant.
He was really childish!
Was he that kind of person?!
Besides, even if he could run away, could he run away from the temple?
Snort!
Xiao Bai was still at home!
However …
Come to think of it …
He finally understood why Old Jiang was getting stronger and where did Old Jiang get his resources from! It was the World of Darkness and Shadows!
Every assassination was to provide resources for Jiang Feng!
Every assassination was the beginning of his strength soaring!
Even.
Lu Ming was now very suspicious that Jiang Feng's legend of immortality and the opening of the casino were all purposely created by him to make money!
The Shadow Coins in this world were very valuable!
Oh.
Right.
And that …
Lu Ming came back to his senses.
This time, Jiang Feng wasn't the only one who earned a lot of Shadow Coins, but he too!
"How did he manage to escape?"
"Faking his death like last time?"
Xiao-Xiaojian was still a little worried. "Or perhaps the main body is already dead and only a shadow is left?"
"I'll go check."
Lu Ming first put away the massive amount of Shadow Coins in the casino, then purposely went to the shop that sold information and bought a unique piece of information at a high price — the name of the founder of Seven Kills.
After a long while …
There were only three words in reply — Jiang Yuebai.
Lu Ming: "…"
Xiao-Xiaojian was speechless.
Jiang Yuebai?!
At one glance, it was obvious that Old Jiang had borrowed Xiao Bai's information to create this. Therefore, it was possible that Old Jiang was the only person in the entire Seven Kills Organization???
He assassinated himself and directed this great event?!
What did this mean?
Self-inflicted injury?
Lu Ming was taken aback.
They took a closer look at the assassination history of the Seven Kills Organization. In general, it was different from when Jiang Feng was being hunted. Therefore, it was basically Old Jiang who did it!
Well …
In addition to being hunted down daily, he actually hunted down others daily …
He had even made a name for himself.
"The old master is amazing!"
Xiao-Xiaojian exclaimed.
Throughout the ages, it had never seen such an amazing person!
What could he do without resources?
He had to create his own!
He dominated the casino and toyed with others in the palm of his hand!
These big shots in reality, these existences in the World of Darkness and Shadows, did not expect that the so-called assassination of Jiang Feng was actually just a game right from the beginning!
"This is amazing!"
Lu Ming exclaimed.
What else could he say?
What was the difference between this and a certain person investing in the stock market?!
This was bullying!
Wait a minute …
Lu Ming suddenly came to his senses and looked at Xiao-Xiaojian suspiciously. "When did he become the old master?"
"Well …"
Xiao-Xiaojian was embarrassed. It said shyly, "After all, he is Xiao Bai's elder. It's impolite to keep addressing him as Old Jiang."
？？？
Lu Ming's face darkened.
Damn it!
Why didn't I see you being so polite in the past?!
I am Xiao Bai's master. I am on the same level as her father!
"Tsk, how can a master and a father be the same?"
Xiao-Xiaojian said in disdain, "Can you make Xiao Bai call you father?"
"Yes."
Lu Ming sneered.
Xiao Bai was so obedient. How could she not listen to him?
It was just that …
If she called him father …
He had a feeling that something was amiss.
Forget it.
Lu Ming rolled his eyes. Why should he be so serious with Xiao-Xiaojian, this brainless guy?
He ignored it.
Lu Ming focused his attention on what was in front of him. He only had one goal in participating in the activities of the casino — to improve his combat ability!
Actually …
The activities of the First College had nothing to do with him.
Lu Ming did not get any rewards for first place or second place! Therefore, he did not intend to participate in it at all!
What he wanted was very simple. He wanted to improve his ability!
In the past two months, in order to prepare for the on-campus job fair, he and Xiao-Xiaojian had worked hard to improve to advanced Four Stars! However, this was far from enough!
Look at these Six Stars students. Didn't they find it embarrassing to be an advanced Four Stars student?
Therefore …
He had to become stronger!
The on-campus job fair was around the corner. Initially, Lu Ming had given up. However, the World of Darkness and Shadows gave him the best opportunity.
This world was very subtle.
The way to improve one's ability was even purer!
Since everyone was a shadow, they could absorb and purchase the purest power of shadow to improve their combat ability!
Or perhaps …
They could kill those shadow monsters to improve their combat ability!
This was also the original meaning of the points system in the First College.
Of course.
This way of improving one's combat ability was merely a shadow!
The students needed to bring their shadow back through the Shadow Combat Suit and then integrate it with their real self to form a brand new combat ability!
However, Lu Ming did not use it.
He had entered it with his physical body! What he wanted to improve was himself!
Therefore …
He would only participate in the gambling!
This was because he wanted to improve himself to the greatest extent!
Shush!
Lu Ming purchased a large amount of pure shadow power and they were of the highest level. They were the easiest to absorb and Xiao-Xiaojian absorbed them to its heart's content!
Afterward …
He issued a mission in the World of Darkness and Shadows!
He could obtain the power of shadow by killing monsters?
Very well.
He would hire a group of people to capture those monsters and then kill them personally by Lu Ming. He could obtain the power of shadow indirectly and increase his combat ability!
Hence …
With the impact of the massive amount of Shadow Coins, Lu Ming's combat ability began to increase at an incredible speed!
Dash!
Dash!
The advanced four-star realm that he had just stabilized was ready to make a move again!
So what if he had one hundred thousand points of energy?
Dash!
20%！
30%！
50%！
The energy in Lu Ming's body was constantly tempered and increased.
In the end …
It stabilized at 80%!
He was only one step away from reaching the peak of Four Stars.
Of course.
What he did not notice was that under this crazy spending mode, Zhong Chu's personal ranking had rushed to the first place at an incredible speed!
He was the champion!
…
Somewhere.
A student looked at the assessment results in disbelief. He could not understand why Zhong Chu had rushed to the first place!
Also!
That damn second place …
Zhao Yunshan?
Who was he?
Oh.
He remembered that he was the trash who had failed the assessment previously!
Why was he second place?!
In his impression …
This guy had just reached five-star?
"Humph!"
There was a cold glint in his eyes. "No matter what method you used to rush to the front, I will let you return to your original position … The weak should be eliminated!"
…
Somewhere.
Zhao Yunshan was sitting cross-legged.
If Lu Ming was here, he would discover that Zhao Yunshan's method of improvement was exactly the same as his!
Xiao-Xiaohou was hacking for twenty-four hours to absorb the purchased Shadow Power!
He would kill the dark monsters that he hired outsiders to capture!
Of course.
The only problem was that Zhao Yunshan's Shadow Coins were purchased with a large amount of money in reality and exchanged with the big shots of the underworld …
Therefore …
He needed time.
Therefore …
The progress was slightly slower.
However, this did not stop him from using this method to improve himself!
Buzz —
Buzz —
Faint lights and shadows flashed.
His level that had just increased by five stars began to soar again. Beginner five-star, intermediate five-star … The speed of improvement was simply rare!
"I only have a shadow now!
"Therefore, after the improvement, it is not considered real ability. Once I return to reality, the realm of the shadow and the actual body will neutralize and merge to form a new realm!
"So …
"I have to try my best to make the shadow stronger!
"If the shadow reaches Six Stars or higher, perhaps it will also reach Six Stars after the integration!"
Zhao Yunshan understood in his heart.
Master!
Don't worry.
I won't embarrass the Sword Card Master profession!
I will definitely fight for the assessment this time … Eh?
Zhao Yunshan looked at Zhong Chu, who was ranked first in the assessment, in shock. He looked at the score that surpassed everyone in seconds. He felt somewhat incredulous!
Among this batch of students, there was actually someone richer than him?!
Click!
Zhao Yunshan clenched his fists tightly.
He felt a surge of complicated emotions in his heart.
Clearly, he had already maximized the amount of Shadow Coins he had converted. Why was it that he could not beat this person?
It was normal that he could not beat him in terms of talent. He had never lamented about it. However, money was a worldly possession that could be accumulated.
Could it be that …
Was this person really richer than him?
Inexplicably …
He could sense the complicated emotions in his heart.
Ah …
Was this what the students often said about the lemon fruit under the lemon tree or you and me under the lemon tree?
It turned out that …
This was the feeling of jealousy.
…
In a certain community.
Lu Ming got up, feeling somewhat regretful.
80% of the advanced five-star progress had reached its limit. This was because … all the shadow beasts in the vicinity had been caught … Yes, all of them had been caught!
If he continued to catch them, he would have to catch them from a further distance. The efficiency was too low.
Therefore …
After waiting for a while, Lu Ming decided to change to another place.
Before leaving …
He seemed to have seen two natives from the World of Shadows arguing in a shop nearby.
"I want to buy a mantis shadow beast. I heard that this kind of shadow beast only lives in this area …"
"What? That's it? "
"It's okay. I can wait. This time, it's mainly for research purposes … That's it too?"
"Wait a minute.
"What do you mean by extinct?!"
…
Lu Ming was speechless.
This was really surprising!
He recalled that among the shadow beasts that he killed earlier, there was indeed a group of mantises. He did not expect them to be extinct …
It was too tragic.
Lu Ming observed two seconds of silence for them.
However …
At this moment.
A figure stood in front of Lu Ming.
"Hello."
A dialog box popped up.
"You are …"
Lu Ming was puzzled.
"…"
"I am the owner of that ball of light."
Zhong Chu sounded sorrowful.
He did not expect that the person in front of him did not remember him.
"…"
Lu Ming coughed, feeling somewhat embarrassed. It turned out that he was the one whom he had cheated. "Sorry, everyone looks so dark. I really can't recognize you …"
"If you want the ball of light, I can give it to you."
Lu Ming took out the ball of light.
He no longer had any use for it.
"No need."
Zhong Chu waved his hands repeatedly. "Can I give this to you?"
"Huh?"
Lu Ming was surprised.
"Well …
"Can I give you the Shadow Combat Suit as well?"
Zhong Chu asked gingerly.
Shush!
There was suddenly silence in the air.
Lu Ming and Xiao-Xiaojian did not come to their senses for a long time.
Damn.
What was happening?!
They had heard of Westmoreland Stockholm Syndrome but they had never heard of being cheated … Was there something wrong with this young man's brain?!
Wait a minute.
Lu Ming was on his guard.
Could it be that there was a law enforcement agency in the World of Darkness and Shadows?
A case could only be filed when the amount of fraud exceeded a certain amount. The shadow ball of light did not reach the amount of fraud. Hence, this guy deliberately gave it to him?!
"I'll return it to you."
Lu Ming hurriedly handed the ball of light to him.
"Don't."
Zhong Chu was teary-eyed. "Brother, I really don't want it anymore!"
"I feel that you're lying to me."
Lu Ming's expression was solemn.
"Really?"
"No!"
"Prove it then."
Lu Ming was on his guard.
"Alright."
Zhong Chu smiled bitterly.
Afterward, he came to his senses …
Something was not right!
This guy was the one who cheated him. Why did he have to prove himself?!
Why?!
However …
At the thought of his own request, he sighed.
"Brother.
"We have a ranking system here."
Zhong Chu simply told Lu Ming everything. "Look, through the Shadow Combat Suit, we can see the real-time ranking of the First College."
"Oh?"
Lu Ming's eyes lit up. There was such a function?
Shush!
He took a closer look and saw a familiar name in the second place. Zhao Yunshan!
Hey!
Old Zhao was good!
He knew that Old Zhao would not let him down. However …
First place: Zhong Chu
"Which idiot is this Zhong Chu?"
Lu Ming furrowed his brows.
There was no Lu Yan!
There was no Gao Tianlang!
It was actually someone called Zhong Chu!
"…"
Zhong Chu was silent.
He suddenly had the urge to beat someone up.
"I am Zhong Chu."
Zhong Chu was between laughter and tears.
"Oh?"
Lu Ming's heart skipped a beat. His gaze swept across Zhong Chu. Looking at his stable Six Stars aura, he suddenly thought of a possibility. Therefore, the first place …
"I did it?!"
Lu Ming exclaimed.
"Yes."
Zhong Chu sighed. "You are that idiot."
Lu Ming was speechless.
He was so vengeful at such a young age?
Oh no!
"I came this time to give you the Shadow Combat Suit," Zhong Chu said truthfully.
"Anyway, I have already given up. Since you can fight for the first place, I will give it to you."
"Are you sure?"
Lu Ming cast a deep gaze at him.
Without the Shadow Combat Suit, your shadow might not be able to return! Once the shadow died, it would dissipate and there would be no impact on the body!
Oh.
More than that.
He might even suffer some minor injuries!
"Yes!"
Zhong Chu did not hesitate at all.
What he wanted was a future!
If he could stay in the first place for a long time, all the associations would look at him in a different light!
And …
The rewards for the graduation assessment!
That was what he wanted!
"Deal!"
Lu Ming's eyes lit up.
Hence …
Zhong Chu took off his clothes on the spot …
"Both of you."
The administrator of the community passed by. "Nudity is prohibited in public."
Lu Ming was speechless.
Zhong Chu was speechless.
Why were the two shadows messing around?!
"Let's go somewhere else."
Lu Ming sighed.
He suddenly thought of something. Although in their eyes, everyone was a blurry shadow and they did not need to care, in the eyes of the locals …
Well …
It might be too revealing?
Hence …
Lu Ming checked into a nearby Shadow Hotel. Under the strange gaze of the attendant, he led Zhong Chu in and then took off Zhong Chu's clothes.
Buzz —
The Shadow Combat Suit automatically fitted.
Various subtle assessment functions also appeared automatically.
The voice transmitted through thoughts …
The screen of the assessment ranking …
Wait a minute.
It turned out that this was the perspective of the assessment students?
"What about you?"
Lu Ming looked at Zhong Chu.
"I'm fine."
Zhong Chu shook his head. "I will hide here and wait for the assessment to end. I just don't have any Shadow Coins …"
"Oh, this is for you."
Lu Ming left him some money.
"Thank you."
Zhong Chu was grateful.
Hence …
Lu Ming flew away.
At this very moment …
In the Shadow Hotel. A few attendants were talking quietly.
"Should we arrest him?"
"There's no need for that."
"You saw it for yourself. They took off his clothes and gave him money after that … There are two men! I even saw the words' Zhong Chu '… It's too scary! "
…
He left the hotel.
Lu Ming's heart was in turmoil.
He never thought that he would participate in the graduation assessment in this way …
Zhong Chu?
That was good too, although his name was blurred out …
However …
Just as he was prepared to change to another place and continue to improve his ability …
Suddenly …
Lights and shadows flashed.
The screen of the Shadow Combat Suit automatically popped up.
Oh?
Lu Ming was filled with curiosity.
Tsk tsk …
The perspective of the assessment students was indeed high-end.
Shush!
Rows of large words appeared and dissipated on the screen in front of him.
"Children …
"Have you familiarized yourself with this world?
"The main purpose of these few days is to let you familiarize yourself with the rules of this world and the survival mode here. Then, from now on …
"The assessment officially begins …"
