This Summoner Is Too Powerful-Chapter 429 - 365: End of the Practical Activity (2)
She was so embarrassed that her expression kept changing, almost unable to save face.
"My scales aren’t just something anyone can take."
Fortunately, at that moment, Long Zuo spoke again.
No matter what he said, as long as it could break the awkward atmosphere.
Upon hearing Long Zuo’s words, Li Pu’s eyes began to shine.
According to the usual plot development, at this time, the other party should pose some tests or issue tasks like the Climbing Wall Vine.
"My scales are only given to dragon kin juniors."
But the next sentence from the other party made Li Pu’s expression dim.
This dragon-headed person, or rather, this big dragon, was really uninteresting.
20,000 Crystal Coins just went down the drain, truly disappointing.
"Senior! Senior! My family’s Long Long is a dragon species!"
But this statement delighted Long Ren, who hurriedly pushed out the summoning beast from behind.
[A dragon, indeed!]
The half-dragon, facing the higher dragon kin, looked a bit nervous and hurriedly greeted in dragon language.
"A dragon, indeed."
Long Zuo nodded, acknowledging the greeting.
"A junior who understands dragon tongue, the bloodline is not shallow, rare indeed."
"And since you’ve made it here, it’s fate, after all."
"So, take it."
As his words fell, the ground beneath everyone started to gently tremble.
Boom!
Everyone saw the soil burst open like a fountain, and a deep blue light soared into the sky.
"It’s a dragon scale."
With the best dynamic vision, Teacher Bai was the first to see the thing erupting from the earth.
A flicker of emotion appeared in her eyes.
Because she also wanted this dragon scale.
Bear in mind, 20,000 Crystal Coins were just a price marked at the trading post.
If she had this thing in hand, she could use it for much more.
The value that could be unleashed greatly surpassed 20,000.
Moreover, now that Long Zuo was already in the degenerative aging period, even if he grew new scales, they wouldn’t be as strong as the old ones.
Thus, the price of this dragon scale seemed more precious.
But Teacher Bai could only feel regret as she knew it wasn’t meant for her.
Sure enough, the dragon scale slowly descended from the sky, stopping in front of Long Ren.
"Th-thank you, senior!"
Long Ren was overjoyed, exclaiming that this exchange trip was truly worth it.
A dragon scale, and from such a powerful dragon, given so casually?!
"Take good care of your half-dragon."
Long Zuo waved his hand, withdrawing the telekinesis from the dragon scale.
"Whoa!"
The heavy dragon scale toppled over, pinning Long Ren to the ground.
He never imagined it would be much heavier than expected.
"Hey, hurry up and help me!"
So he could only ask Li Pu for assistance.
"Useless fellow."
Li Pu rolled his eyes, then released a reverse gravity field.
This move caught Long Zuo’s attention.
He could clearly sense the change in the gravity field; it seemed this kid had some peculiar abilities.
Actually, at this moment, Li Pu was a bit depressed.
He didn’t expect Long Zuo’s scales to be given away so generously and nonchalantly.
It’s just a "dragon" thing, I can speak it too.
Such discrimination, only giving things to dragon summoning beasts, hmph.
Do you believe I won’t just summon a dragon to come find you?
But on second thought, he had already gotten an A+ class artifact, an A+ class skill, and an S class card from this trip, so it wasn’t a loss.
"Thanks."
Long Ren immediately felt the dragon scale become much lighter, and with the help of the half-dragon, he propped it up and put it into his storage space.
Then he dragged the half-dragon to properly thank Long Zuo.
Li Pu thought for a moment and also followed in giving thanks.
Finally, Teacher Bai had the air-jellyfish recreate a shielding field, in which she chatted with Long Zuo about unknown topics, which they couldn’t overhear.
Only knowing that after Teacher Bai came out, her expression wasn’t as good as before.
"Alright, I’m going back to sleep, you all can leave now."
Long Zuo issued a departure order to them.
He then walked back into the big dragon head, and once again, the big dragon head opened its eyes.
Everyone immediately felt the sense of oppression; the difference between spiritual and physical entities was indeed evident.
Rumble...
The big dragon head turned to face them, instantly giving off a feeling as if the earth and mountains shook.
[Roar...]
Whoosh!
Then it exhaled a soft stream of air, gently lifting the three and the summoning beast.
The next second, Li Pu noticed his view beginning to gradually rise.
The rising speed got faster and faster.
The powerful wind pressure rushed toward them.
Teacher Bai stood with both hands behind her, looking calm, seemingly unaffected, a stark contrast from being sent flying by the straw man earlier.
Li Pu, as expected, wisely activated [Hardening] in advance.
Only Long Ren, with his face distorted by the wind pressure, suddenly remembered to activate [Barrier].
In no time, they had been blown to the edge of the chasm.
"We climbed so hard, and it was just a breath from the senior."
Long Ren looked back at the abyss, sighing.
Li Pu also gazed at the chasm.
By now, he had seen the three guardian beasts outside the school and suddenly became curious about what the fourth might be.
"Let’s get back and submit the task early."
Leaving this reminder, Teacher Bai quickly departed.
Li Pu and Long Ren surveyed their surroundings, chose a direction, and soon found Chang Shoushang waiting by the safety rope device.
Altogether, their descent and climb didn’t exceed 12 hours.
So the three decided to return immediately; staying here was pointless.
With Bu Bu’s help, Long Ren and Chang Shoushang adopted a strange sideways running posture, following Li Pu toward the school’s west gate.
After spending most of the day traveling, they returned to the school’s west gate late at night.
There, Jiang Guiju had been waiting for them for a long time.
Jiang Guiju brought good news to them.
Since she used [Sprint], she returned to the task point ahead of many teams to make the report.
The final result was a tie for third place among three teams.
Third place awarded 80 points, plus they completed an additional task for 20 points, earning a total of 100 school points for the five.
Yes, five people. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
They certainly didn’t forget Wu Guinan, even though he didn’t contribute much.
But having been classmates, they all felt he deserved a share due to camaraderie.
So, deducting Wu Guinan’s share of 1 point, Li Pu and the others could split the remaining 99 points, which meant 99 points for them.
Calculating entirely based on contribution was difficult.
After some discussion, the four decided to distribute based on mutual consent and feeling.
From Wu Guinan’s case, it showed they were a harmonious team.
Thus, no disputes or conflicts arose.
In the end, because Li Pu’s "feeling" was the biggest and the hardest, making him more intimidating, he got 30 points.
Jiang Guiju and Long Ren received 25 points each, while Chang Shoushang got 19 points.
Except for Chang Shoushang feeling a bit disadvantaged, everyone thought it was fair and satisfying.
Consequently, Li Pu’s points reached 100.
Remember, this was quite a high score, especially for having it in the first semester, making it even more valuable.
To put it more precisely, a level 5 summoning talisman totaled 132 points.
Li Pu only needed to place first in three more monthly exams to achieve this score.
The main factor was the 60-point reward from the Southwestern Star Cup’s podium, which was outstanding.
However, achieving it within this semester was a bit challenging.
Because three months had passed, the semester was more than half over, leaving just one more chance for a monthly exam, or perhaps, the final exam.
Moreover, whether he could secure the first place was uncertain.
After completing the practice activity and wrapping up all affairs, Li Pu and Long Ren returned to the dormitory to rest.
As expected, Wu Guinan did not return, and no one knew when he would.
Then, the next morning, Long Ren’s phone rang; it was Li Fan looking for Li Pu.
He said someone wanted to meet him.
