A month hadn't even passed.
Originally, it was Lu Wu coveting others, but now others had started coveting Lu Wu.
This made Lu Wu feel that a life on cheat mode was just this dull, and he even started to feel a bit inflated.
Fortunately, this dull and inflated mindset didn't last long.
As his dealings with Li Kai began, and as he further understood Li Kai and the circle of Summon Beast Cultivators, this dullness gradually disappeared.
It had to be said, Li Kai was really disappointing.
When Lu Wu first met him, he thought Li Kai had to be a big shot, maybe one of the top Summon Beast Cultivators in the Alliance.
After all, that's how the plot always goes, doesn't it? Any protagonist on cheat mode always meets a big shot.
However, after a while, Lu Wu realized that Li Kai was just an average Summon Beast Cultivator. His skill level really didn't look like that of a big shot.
Just now, after Li Kai completely came clean with him, Lu Wu finally realized that Li Kai was actually just a newbie who hadn't even passed the professional exam.
Lu Wu had hoped to enter the circle of Summon Beast Cultivators through Li Kai, but it turned out that Li Kai himself wasn't even in that circle.
This made Lu Wu very upset!
The sense of accomplishment he felt from conquering Li Kai poured out like a flood.
However, Lu Wu wasn't left empty-handed in his dealings with Li Kai.
At least through Li Kai, Lu Wu learned some information about the Summon Beast Cultivator profession.
The most crucial point was that Lu Wu learned of the existence of the Professional Summon Beast Cultivator exam.
He also learned that if high school students passed the Professional Summoner exam, they could possibly gain direct admission to one of the top Summoner Universities.
When Lu Wu heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.
For him, this was a shortcut, or rather, a kind of backup plan.
Although as someone on cheat mode, Lu Wu had quite a bit of confidence in his ability to get into Summoner University, there was always the fear of unforeseen circumstances.
After a month had passed, Lu Wu had a clearer understanding of Summoner University.
He knew very well that Summoner University had different levels of prestige.
For example, someone like Senior Snowman, who ranked 27th in the city competition, could at best get into the least prestigious Summoner University.
As someone on cheat mode, Lu Wu's goal was naturally set higher.
So when Lu Wu learned about the Professional Summoner exam, he decided that he would aim to ace both the Professional Summoner exam and the high school league!
When Lu Wu made this decision, his eyes were sparkling with determination. Li Kai, who was standing nearby, noticed this and quickly approached him.
He, Li Kai, had five years of experience taking the exam, though he had failed each time. Despite this, he offered his wealth of experience with one implied message.
"I, Li Kai, seek to be carried!"
Regarding this, Lu Wu was initially reluctant.
Just because you want me to carry you doesn't mean I will! After all, when he first coveted Li Kai, he didn't directly pounce on him.
But when Li Kai pulled out the books he had collected and the exam questions he had prepared over five years, and even offered to raise Lu Wu's monthly salary to 50,000 yuan, allowing him to freely use the materials in his shop, Lu Wu found the offer hard to refuse.
Then, just like that, Lu Wu and Li Kai's deal took an odd turn.
Originally, Lu Wu planned to hug Li Kai's thigh to step into the circle of Summon Beast Cultivators, but in the end, it was he who brought Li Kai into the circle.
This change left Lu Wu both helpless and slightly inflated, feeling like he was on the verge of taking off.
Speaking of taking off, Lu Wu remembered he still hadn't started his real task; his Little Skeleton hadn't advanced yet.
How could he talk about taking off when Little Skeleton hadn't even advanced?
Lu Wu quickly got to work, borrowed Li Kai's workshop, asked for materials, and then dove into the workshop to busy himself.
Lu Wu didn't plan to have Little Skeleton advance at Li Kai's place. He borrowed the workshop just to process some materials.
Compared to version 2.0, the materials used in "Little Skeleton's Training Manual 3.0" were more extensive.
Besides cow bone and cow blood, Lu Wu also added White Bone Grass and Dried Bone Root, which needed pre-processing that Lu Wu couldn't do at home.
After spending some time processing the materials, Lu Wu called Pang Duddu to help with the delivery.
Shortly after he called, Pang Duddu arrived on a pink electric scooter.
Lu Wu looked at Pang Duddu, then at the scooter, then at Little Skeleton and the stuff behind him, and he felt a bit exasperated.
"Are you sure this thing can carry all that?"
Pang Duddu looked at it too, then lowered her head and didn't dare speak.
In the end, it was Li Kai, eager to curry favor, who drove over and helped transport Lu Wu, Little Skeleton, and the materials back home.
After sending Lu Wu home, Li Kai felt a bit expectant, hoping that Lu Wu would invite him to stay.
He knew well that Lu Wu was preparing those things to advance his Little Skeleton.
Li Kai had no resistance to such events and really wanted to stay and watch, but unfortunately, Lu Wu didn't keep him; instead, he kept Pang Duddu, who had followed behind.
It wasn't to guard against Li Kai; it was just that his room was too small to fit many people.
After sending Li Kai off, Lu Wu got busy.
The procedure was basically the same as version 2.0, putting bone powder and the pre-prepared seasoning, oh no, materials packet into the pot and boiling it, then pouring the broth into a bucket and finally adding Little Skeleton and cow blood together.
Next, Lu Wu just needed to wait.
But Pang Duddu's family's pig was quite troublesome.
After smelling the broth, it kept drooling and wanted to jump in, so Lu Wu had to take Pang Duddu outside to get peace.
Once outside, Lu Haikong, who was playing with his daughter in the living room, immediately came over to shower Pang Duddu with concern.
"Come, come, sit down and rest. Helping this brat stew the broth must have tired you out.
You look thinner; later, I'll have Aunt Li make your favorite sweet and sour ribs!"
Lu Haikong smiled at Pang Duddu with fatherly affection, but when he turned to Lu Wu, who had been working hard all day and was dripping with sweat, his tone switched to that of a strict stepfather: "You unfilial son, what are you still sitting there for? Go get Duddu a glass of water!"
