My starting summon is a small skeleton-Chapter 67 - 0 Sudden Change

Lu Wu had Li Kai toss out the "Little Skeleton Training Manual" to not only heat up the atmosphere but also to tempt others with their knowledge.

Or rather, Lu Wu wanted to use others’ knowledge to help him refine the quality improvement scheme for Little Skeleton.

You see, everyone present was a Cultivation Master, and even though most were not professionals, those who came with confidence definitely wouldn’t be lacking in skills.

Li Kai, in front of them, brought out a previously unseen scheme, which, if it piqued their interest, would only require a gentle nudge to get them talking freely and help Lu Wu perfect this scheme.

And that was exactly what Lu Wu wanted.

Although they might not come up with any great or detailed improvement plans, with so many people, there was bound to be some ideas and methods Lu Wu hadn’t thought of before.

These ideas and methods might not be of much use to others since many were likely spur-of-the-moment thoughts, impossible to verify, or rather, not worth the extensive resources to check.

But the situation was different for Lu Wu.

After all, he was a man with tricks up his sleeve.

What others couldn’t verify, he could, and without needing to exhaust any resources.

That was Lu Wu’s advantage, the reason he had Li Kai reveal the "Little Skeleton Training Manual."

Things went smoothly, almost exactly as Lu Wu envisioned.

Once Li Kai made the "Little Skeleton Training Manual" public and spelled out his thoughts, more than half of the Cultivation Masters present were intrigued.

And when Li Kai asked if anyone had other ideas to help refine the scheme, someone immediately spoke up.

"I think if this scheme is to be improved, water might be one element to consider. I suggest adding Yin Water to the mix."

Someone countered right away.

"That’s not right; Yin Water has a corrosive effect. I think adding some Barbarian Bull Blood might do the trick."

"Barbarian Bull Blood doesn’t seem too useful. How about trying some rotten corpse liquid?"

...

One Cultivation Master after another spoke freely, sharing all kinds of ingenious ideas.

Below them, Lu Wu’s eyes gleamed, and he quickly snatched the mobile phone from Little Skeleton’s hands.

Though his memory was excellent, he was also skillful at never forgetting.

There were too many speaking now, and even with his strong memory, he couldn’t keep up. Losing concentration for just a moment could lead to omissions, so recording with his phone was more reliable.

That way, even if Lu Wu didn’t remember, he could listen to it several times over.

The phone’s rightful owner, Little Skeleton, was somewhat displeased.

It felt Lu Wu was a cheater and had just declared the previous night that the phone was its. Yet here he was, snatching it away again.

Hmph, it decided then and there that it would absolutely refuse to cover Lu Wu with a blanket tonight.

...

On the other side of the Professional Center, the team monitoring the hall noticed the abnormal situation immediately.

"Do we need to intervene?"

The middle-aged man in charge of surveillance asked for instructions from the elder beside him.

The elder shook his head.

"No need, luring them here was a bit unscrupulous to begin with, and stopping their academic discussion now would be quite inconsiderate.

Besides, what they’re doing doesn’t affect anything; it might even be helpful to us.

Keep an eye on those who are unusually silent or overly excited.

Afterwards, arrange for them to attend a class as compensation."

"Yes!"

"Are there any noteworthy individuals in attendance?"

"So far, nothing unusual; the only one slightly different is that Summoner we just talked about."

The middle-aged man pointed to Li Kai: "However, we’ve checked his identity, and he’s not a suspect."

The elder looked at Li Kai on the screen, feeling a sense of familiarity, and after a moment of recollection, his eyebrows lifted: "Is it him?"

"You know him?"

"I have an impression. He has participated in the professional assessments over the past few years, and I was the chief examiner last year; I’ve seen his information.

It’s rare to see a Professional Summoner change professions, so I remembered him."

As the elder’s attention was on Li Kai, Li Kai was engaged in a discussion with a Cultivation Master. The elder listened quietly and then raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise.

"Hmm, his level has increased quite a lot. With his current skills, he should have a chance to pass this year’s assessment.

It seems he’s encountered a great teacher.

Who did he come with?"

The elder was interested in the great teacher who had taught Li Kai so well in a year; regardless of their skill level, their teaching ability was quite impressive.

He was eager to meet them.

The middle-aged man checked the information, then pointed to Lu Wu, who was holding the phone and recording: "Him!"

Upon seeing Lu Wu, the elder was somewhat disappointed.

"This one should be his student or classmate. It seems his teacher didn’t come."

Then, the elder shifted his attention away from Li Kai and Lu Wu.

He refocused on the task at hand.

"How’s the preparation for the Summoned Beast coming along?"

"Almost ready!"

The elder narrowed his eyes: "Then let’s start. It won’t be easy to capture that person with his abilities, fishing requires bait after all.

Why would a fish bite if it can’t see the bait?"

The middle-aged man hesitated a bit about starting the risky move: "Elder Zhao, isn’t this a bit too risky?

What if that person really comes and takes the Summoned Beast, how will we explain it to the higher-ups?"

Elder Zhao was full of confidence: "Don’t worry, no one can steal that Summoned Beast from me!

I stand by my words!"

"But..."

"No buts, I’ll take responsibility for any issues, let them start!"

"Yes!"

The middle-aged man had no choice but to pick up the communicator and contact the team handling the Summoned Beast.

"Old Zhang, it’s me. You can start now!"

After a few seconds, there was no response on the communicator!

"What’s going on?"

Both of their faces grew serious, and just then, the previously unresponsive communicator crackled with a deep, hoarse voice.

"Ah, many thanks to you both. I’ll be taking this little fellow with me. Until we meet again."

Following that, the communicator was abruptly hung up.

Now, the elder’s previous confidence completely shattered.

Within the Professional Center, a roar as if emanating from the depths of the Abyss resounded.

A giant beast reeking of the Abyss soared into the air, seemingly carrying someone as it charged out of the Professional Center.

"This is bad!"

"Stop him, don’t let him get away!"

Under the elder’s orders, several immensely powerful auras burst forth within the Professional Center. One terrifying Summoned Beast after another appeared, converging on the Abyss Giant Beast...
