Tian Du City.
Sword Card Master Association.
Lu Ming looked at the adorable Xiao Bai and was deep in his thoughts.
Obviously …
He did not expect that the drawback of the Fountain of Life was that she would not grow up! Wait a minute. How could this be a drawback?!
Cough.
That was not right …
It was no wonder it was useless to eat papaya every day!
"Master?"
Xiao Bai blinked.
"It's okay."
Lu Ming came to his senses and his expression was complicated. "Rest early."
"Okay."
Xiao Bai said obediently.
At night.
Time passed quietly.
…
The next day.
Lu Ming got up, feeling satisfied.
He had not had a good rest for a long time. He had a really good sleep. He handed over the name list to Zhou Yun. His life had returned to normal.
Buzz —
The surrounding energy appeared.
Right now, with the help of the Sky Water Sword, Lu Ming could clearly feel that his cultivation speed was increasing at a rapid pace!
He looked up. Xiao-Xiaojian and the shadow were working hard on cultivating.
Ah …
It was a diligent day.
Well …
Lu Ming was very satisfied.
Zhou Yun was perfecting the name list. Before that, he still had some things to do. For example, the research on a few cards that were about to be completed!
Furthermore —
There was also a card that could be created without any research. However, Lu Ming had not created it yet!
It was a five-star card of the Meltdown Series!
Its Four Stars Card was the Interruption Card!!!
This card was very difficult to create.
It was true.
However, no matter how difficult it was, it was merely a Four Stars top-notch card. It was not a problem for Lu Ming who was already a five-star and had started to research top-notch five-star cards!
Therefore …
He could create this card easily.
Afterward …
As long as he integrated this card with Lightning, he would be able to create a top-notch five-star card!
However …
Should he do it or not?
Lu Ming was very upset.
He had studied almost all the Standalone Cards. Most of them collapsed the moment they were integrated. Only a few of them were studied!
For example —
Demolition series.
For example —
Summoning series.
Wait a minute!
As for the Meltdown Card, it developed into a series on its own.
From absorbing energy in the beginning, to melting the restriction in the middle, to interrupting time in the later stages, the difficulty and strength of this card had skyrocketed!
This was because it was an Advanced Card!
Green.
However …
Previously, when the Four Stars appeared, even time had melted. What would it melt this time? The Ablation series seemed to be more of a headache than the Demolition series.
He pondered for a long time.
Lu Ming made up his mind: Do it!!!
There weren't many cards that could form a series, so what choice did he have?
"I hope there won't be any more problems."
Lu Ming took a deep breath.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
He began to create cards.
The difficulty of a Four Stars Advanced Card was, after all, lower than a Five Stars Advanced Card. Given Lu Ming's current level, although it would take a lot of time, he could still create it.
After a long while …
Seven Interruption Cards were successfully created.
Xiu!
Xiu!
Without any hesitation, Lu Ming threw the seven Interruption Cards into the Original Card and integrated them.
Buzz —
The Original Card shone. The card surface and lines began to transform.
Green lights flashed.
The new card was done.
The lines were as mysterious as ever. It was even more complicated than the few Five Stars Cards that Lu Ming was studying. He reckoned that he would not be able to create it within a short period of time.
Card surface …
Lu Ming took a look. It was also a very ordinary card surface. Three lights and shadows appeared on the card surface. They seemed to be real and illusory at the same time. He could not tell what they were.
This thing …
Lu Ming looked at it for a long time but still could not understand it.
Should he give it a try?
Lu Ming instinctively walked to the testing area of the association. He pondered for a moment, looked at the testing equipment, sighed and turned to leave.
Forget it.
He would go to the First College.
It was a formal testing institution and they were very powerful. Even if something happened, they would be able to handle it! The dean was the one who suppressed the Will-O-Wisp Card last time!
Well …
There was nothing wrong with it!
Hence …
That afternoon, Lu Ming sneaked into the testing area of the First College. He did not expect that there would be someone else testing in the card testing area!
"Lu Ming?"
That person cast him a strange glance.
"Hello."
Lu Ming greeted him.
"Hehe."
That person sneered. "You are merely a five-star. Why are you here instead of staying in your five-star testing area? Do you know what it means to waste public resources? "
"Who are you?"
Lu Ming felt ridiculous.
It was summer. Why was he so hot-tempered?
"Xiao Yuntian."
That person said coldly, "The vice president of the Card Creators Association of Tian Du City."
Oh?
Card Creator …
Lu Ming squinted his eyes. He suddenly understood.
In essence, the Sword Card Master was a vocation under the Card Creator Association. However, after moving to Tian Du City, the Sword Card Master Association became completely independent.
Not only that.
As the vocation core was the Original Card, there was a certain competitive relationship between the two.
For example —
The recruitment of the First College.
The Sword Card Master Association had recruited almost all the geniuses. Those from the Card Creators Association were either repulsive people or salted fish who did not want to fight.
The Tian Du City branch had a huge impact!
Because of Lu Ming, their recruitment ratio had dropped by 50% …
Who could tolerate this?
Hence …
That's why this scene happened.
Forget it.
Lu Ming could not be bothered with him.
"I have my own authority."
He said calmly and then walked to the testing lane.
Was that so?
Xiao Yuntian sneered. He did not argue with Lu Ming. Instead, he looked at Lu Ming coldly. He wanted to see what kind of card Lu Ming was testing.
At this very moment …
Lu Ming walked to the testing area.
Actually …
It was better to go to the private room for testing now. However, after thinking about it, Lu Ming did not dare to hide in the small private room. What if the effect of this card was extraordinary …
Cough.
Perhaps he and the private room would be ruined.
Therefore, Lu Ming deliberately chose a testing area that was closer to the entrance. He observed the escape route before he began to test the card.
Xiao Yuntian was speechless.
Why was Lu Ming wandering around here instead of testing?!
After a long while …
Lu Ming finally threw out the card.
Buzz —
A green shadow flashed.
Xiao Yuntian's eyes widened. Five-star Advanced Card?
Hehe.
It was not bad. For Lu Ming who was only a five-star, five-star Advanced Cards were indeed rare. It was understandable that he came here to test.
However …
For his peak Six Stars combat ability …
It was too weak!
He had played with it many years ago!
Shush!
Cold lights flashed.
There was a flash of light on the testing machine in the distance.
Afterward …
It was gone!
The testing machine did not even move. Damn! The light that indicated that it was on did not even light up! That was to say, it was very likely that the card was not detected at all!
???
Lu Ming was somewhat dumbstruck. W-what was happening?!
Right then.
Xiao Yuntian, who was far away, seemed to have understood something.
"Self-Creation Card!
"It's actually a Self-Creation Card!
"Hahaha, you're actually researching a five-star advanced Self-Creation Card!"
Xiao Yuntian was amused. "In order to create a card at a certain stage, one must have a thorough understanding of the stage. You've only just reached five-star. It's no wonder you failed …
"Tsk tsk.
"You've become arrogant after creating some low-level Fruit Cards and Leviathan Cards …
"Remember.
"Lu Ming.
"We, the Card Creators, are the professionals in card creation!"
"As for Sword Card Masters …
"You only need to know how to use the card."
Xiao Yuntian said coldly.
Lu Ming only created one card every few months!
As for the Card Creators Association, they could create a few new cards in a day. Why did Lu Ming take all the talents and glory?!
Of course, they were indignant.
"…"
Lu Ming glanced at him and could not be bothered.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
He tried to materialize the card again.
However …
The testing machine seemed to have malfunctioned and there was no response. Lu Ming threw out many new cards but there was no response!
In the end …
Lu Ming could only give up.
It seemed that …
It was another card that he could not understand.
This series …
Lu Ming smiled bitterly.
Forget it.
He would go back first.
"Lu Ming."
Xiao Yuntian spoke instinctively.
"Shut up."
Lu Ming swept his cold gaze across him. "I don't want to talk to you now."
Upon finishing his words …
He turned to leave.
Xiao Yuntian was stunned and could not come to his senses for a long time.
After a long time …
He then squinted his eyes.
Interesting …
Lu Ming seemed to be completely different from what he imagined.
He was very clear about the situation of the Card Creators Association and the Sword Card Master Association. He met Lu Ming by chance this time because he wanted to provoke Lu Ming and stir up some trouble!
By then, it would be a huge blow to the Sword Card Master Association because he was young and frivolous!
There was no other choice.
He was an internet celebrity.
Since he had become popular, he had to bear the criticism of being popular.
It was a pity …
Lu Ming ignored him right from the beginning to the end.
"He has a determined and calm personality …
"He did not feel discouraged even though he failed the test …
"He did not fly into a rage even though he was mocked by himself …"
Xiao Yuntian was filled with emotions.
The president of the Sword Card Master Association was more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.
However …
Hehe.
Xiao Yuntian's lips curled to reveal a smile. He was ultimately too childish!!!
Child.
His way of handling things was not bad. It was a pity that he underestimated the complexity of this society. He did not expect that he had a part-time job …
Shush!
Xiao Yuntian suddenly lit up his communication device.
Over there …
There was a pinhole that was shining.
Buzz —
Xiao Yuntian aimed at the testing scene in the distance and his expression became colorful.
"It's done.
"Brothers, remember to send me a rocket if you enjoy watching it.
"In order to protect Lu Ming's privacy and the secrets of the card, I deliberately muffled the sound. But it's alright. You should be able to tell something from the screen?
"That's right!
"Lu Ming's new card has failed the test!
"In the end, he is still too young. He came up with a worthless card.
"It's here.
"I also suggest that young friends go to the testing area to ensure that the card is basically successful before you go. Otherwise, it will be a waste of money and resources."
Xiao Yuntian pretended to be cheerful.
The bullet screen was full of '666' and 'Master Xiao Yuntian is awesome'.
"Today!
"Let's show you what a real Six Stars Card is!"
Xiao Yuntian walked to the testing area.
Why was there a live broadcast?!
This was because he was also here to test the card. As a dignified peak Six Stars Card Creator, the card that he meticulously researched would naturally have extraordinary effects.
To be honest …
Ever since Qiu Shuyi created a craze for live broadcasts, people like them had also stepped into the live broadcast industry. They could more or less earn some extra money.
The more powerful they were, the more they could earn!
Therefore …
Testing a new card was a popular and sponsored partnership. Of course, it had to be done live! Of course, there were many ways to do sponsored partnerships.
For example —
Before the test, when one did not have enough energy, they could drink a cup of nutritious and healthy sponsored partnership milk.
Regardless of whether it was boring or not, they could just say that it felt good.
Right then …
A number of netizens came to watch.
"I heard that the president of the Sword Card Master Association came just now?"
"There is a replay. You can go and watch it. Haha, Lu Ming failed to create a card. He looked terrible."
"Is that true or not?"
"66666 Summer is indeed the best time to eat melons."
"Sword Card Master and Card Creator. It's so lively."
People liked to see this.
As for most people …
They were not interested in the Card Creator or Sword Card Master and they did not understand them. They just liked to watch the fun of watching melons …
Therefore, the popularity of Xiao Yuntian's live broadcast skyrocketed!
As a small live streamer who had just started out, he actually made it to the top ten within a few minutes!
He had to thank Lu Ming for this.
Xiao Yuntian was secretly proud of himself.
Haha.
Lu Ming.
You might not even know that you have inadvertently made me a success!
Come on!
Let these people see the difference between you and me.
Hence …
Xiao Yuntian walked to the testing area. In order to ensure fairness, he specially walked to the machine that Lu Ming was testing on earlier …
Shush!
A lush green card bloomed.
Six Stars! Advancement!
The aura alone was enough to prove the ability of this card.
At this moment …
Everyone held their breath.
Buzz —
The card dissipated.
The machine detected the flow of card energy and was activated instantly.
— —
The card testing began.
Card testing …
…
— — —
Suddenly …
The data displayed on the machine suddenly stopped.
Eh?
Just as Xiao Yuntian thought that the data was delayed, the display panel of the machine suddenly flickered and a strange fluctuation could be felt.
This was …
Oh no!
Xiao Yuntian turned to run.
However …
It was too late.
Bang!
There was a deafening sound.
A mushroom cloud suddenly rose into the sky from the testing base!
The earth trembled.
The entire First College felt this strong earthquake.
???
The teachers and students who stayed in the school woke up in shock at this moment.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Beams of lights dashed toward the testing base.
At this very moment …
Lu Ming, who had long left the First College and had already reached the school gate, suddenly turned around and looked at the mushroom cloud that suddenly rose from the testing base …
What was happening?!
Lu Ming was somewhat dazed.
However …
It was okay.
Very soon, he received a message from Li Haoran. "Master, Xiao Yuntian mentioned you in the live broadcast."
Live broadcast?
Lu Ming browsed the Internet and looked at the replay. His expression instantly turned strange.
This situation …
"Do you want to go and take a look?!"
Xiao-Xiaojian was excited.
Damn it!
A mere Six Stars dared to be arrogant in front of me!
Let's go!
We will go back and mock him.
"No."
Lu Ming said decisively, "Let's go back to the association first!"
Eh?
Xiao-Xiaojian was dazed. This was not like Lu Ming's usual style!
Wait a minute.
Xiao-Xiaojian suddenly came to its senses. "You mean that card …"
"I didn't say anything."
Lu Ming looked at the sky.
It was clearly Xiao Yuntian's fault for testing! It had nothing to do with the new card!
Hence …
A man and a card returned to the association in a low-key manner.
Well …
They pretended that nothing had happened.
However …
At this moment, the Internet had completely exploded.
Lu Ming's appearance, Xiao Yuntian's disdain, and the effects of that card had caused a sensation on the Internet! According to the feedback from The First College …
Half of the testing base had been razed to the ground.
According to the investigation …
The main energy of the explosion came from the testing equipment.
Obviously, the card that Xiao Yuntian had failed to create had some adverse reactions and destroyed the testing equipment. This was why the testing base had exploded!
In the end …
Xiao Yuntian had been detained for endangering public safety.
As for Lu Ming?
What a joke.
Did this matter have anything to do with Lu Ming right from the beginning?
No!
Lu Ming had only created a useless card that had no effect!
Who could say?
Xiao Yuntian.
Where was the evidence?
Xiao Yuntian's video could be seen in the replay.
Yes.
Xiao Yuntian's own live broadcast and words clearly defined Lu Ming's card as a useless card, eliminating all suspicion on Lu Ming.
…
At this very moment …
The big influencer, Zhang Yang, posted an article in his WeChat Moments. He discussed the issue of whether there should be a safety mechanism in card creation.
In the article, he emphasized that the main reason why Lu Ming's new card was useless was because of the 'safety mechanism'. Once the card failed, the lines would be destroyed. Xiao Yuntian's card did not have a safety mechanism at all. Regardless of whether the card was successful or not, it would explode. Which one was better?
Although it sounded like a discussion, the outcome …
Xiao Yuntian was done for.
He was completely and utterly done for.
Of course.
After all, the Internet was the Internet. Contrarians were everywhere.
Some people supported Lu Ming. Naturally, there were people who suspected Lu Ming. Even some media outlets who were used to riding on the popularity had begun to clean up the mess. It did not matter if it was right or wrong. As long as it was a hot topic, it was fine!
Hence …
All kinds of conspiracy theories were launched!
"I have a feeling that something is wrong."
"Is Xiao Yuntian that silly? I feel that he has been fooled by Lu Ming! "
"Exactly! Lu Ming used several cards! "
Even …
Even the dean of the First College could not escape this storm.
This was because —
Damn it, it was Lu Ming again!!!
"Sigh."
The dean gave a deep sigh.
Why was it that Lu Ming was always involved in such matters?
No matter how one looked at the live broadcast, Lu Ming was innocent and he was being mocked. Although Lu Ming's card was useless and the machine was not even activated …
However …
He felt that something was not quite right.
"Tell me.
"This matter has something to do with Lu Ming …"
The dean pondered deeply.
"…"
The assistant sighed. He could not be bothered to refute.
"…"
The dean was very conflicted.
Did this matter have anything to do with Lu Ming?
"Investigate it."
He asked the management of the testing area to come back immediately to investigate.
…
Right then …
Sword Card Master Association.
Lu Ming, who had already returned to the association, naturally saw this.
"Master, someone is slandering you on the Internet."
Li Haoran was furious.
These people were too much!
Was Master that kind of person?!
Why would Master demolish the testing area?!
"You will get used to it."
Lu Ming was very calm.
He was already used to this kind of thing in his previous life.
Some people liked to attack what everyone liked, thereby creating popularity for themselves.
For example —
All of you like to watch Wandering Earth?
I don't like it.
Not only do I not like it, but I also want to criticize this rubbish movie! They have not even caught up to the basics of XXX and they are already bragging about it. The Chinese people's aesthetic standards are worrying …
Or for example —
Nezha.
Lu Ming remembered that when Nezha was first released on the shelves, there was a Taoist buddy who criticized Nezha for using the dragon as the villain. He said that Nezha must have been poisoned by European and American culture and that it was an insult to the dragon's dignity in China's mythology. Therefore, he criticized it at length and it became a trending topic …
Therefore, regarding the Internet …
One could just look at it.
???
Xiao-Xiaojian cast a doubtful glance at Lu Ming and said softly, "Well, I understand the logic, but what has this got to do with you?!"
It was doubtful.
Seriously …
What has it got to do with you whether others are misunderstood?!
Don't you know whether the new card is effective or not?!
"Shut up!"
Lu Ming stuffed Xiao-Xiaojian back into the card bag.
Damn it! You have too much to say!
Anyway.
He was already used to being slandered by others. This was because he was too outstanding.
Of course.
This card also gave Lu Ming a headache.
Explosion?
Time bomb?!
However …
Just as Lu Ming was guessing, the results of the investigation by the First College were released.
A large number of parts were missing from the testing equipment, resulting in a malfunction! There was an explosion of energy leakage. Therefore, they seriously suspected that in order to diss Lu Ming, Xiao Yuntian reduced the number of parts in the testing equipment in advance, causing Lu Ming's new card to fail the test and creating the misconception that the Sword Card Master was not good enough!
Human nature was sinister!
At this moment.
Those who doubted Lu Ming apologized one after another.
Even the dean of the First College expressed deep guilt for doubting Lu Ming once again. Sigh, why did he always misunderstand this child …
Look.
The results are out?!
It had nothing to do with Lu Ming! It was Xiao Yuntian who misunderstood Lu Ming!
This child …
He did not say anything even though he had been wronged.
He was too kind.
"Lu Ming, I'm sorry."
The dean took the initiative to call Lu Ming. "Since this happened in the First College, the First College will definitely give you an explanation!"
"Huh?"
Lu Ming hung up the phone in a daze. What was happening?!
Therefore …
This matter really had nothing to do with him?
The problem was —
He did not believe it himself!
This card …
He looked at the Original Card that had just materialized in his hands and was deep in his thoughts. Brother, what function did it have?!
…
PS: Thank you to the chief of 'Moon Maple Is Like Fire'. Thank you to everyone for your support! Although all of you slander me every day, I really don't mind!
After all …
I'm so outstanding … (Moving the dog head to save his life).
