Once Little Skeleton advanced, both Lu Wu and Little Skeleton mentioned the weather was nice, the moon was high, and they wanted to go to the training hall to practice.
However, the pig from Dudu's house disagreed.
This pig was not only lazy but also clever.
Seeing that Little Skeleton was different now, and that bat was different too, it just didn't want to fight Little Skeleton.
"Hmm, bullying the weak is fine, but getting beaten up is not!"
Although it wouldn't necessarily lose, the pig absolutely wouldn't engage in a fight where it might get hit!
With Tuantuan's disagreement, the fight wouldn't start, plus Lu Wu had been busy all day and now it was already past 11 PM, so Dudu's Dad called looking for his daughter.
Having no other choice, Lu Wu could only take back the man's daughter.
Speaking of taking Dudu home, it was quite an interesting matter.
After Lu Wu took Dudu home, Dudu's Dad pulled him inside to give him a scolding, but right after they went in, Dudu's Mom pushed Dudu's Dad to one side.
Unlike Dudu's Dad, Dudu's Mom's attitude towards Lu Wu was unbelievably good, treating him like a son, caring for him in various ways, even scolding Dudu's Dad.
"What's wrong with the young couple coming home late?"
"It would be better if they didn't come back. If they hadn't come back tonight, Dudu's Mom was prepared to discuss with Lu Wu's Mom about getting them together."
Their chubby daughter had finally found a partner, and such a fine one at that; if she didn't hold on tightly, it wouldn't be easy to find another.
With this thought, Dudu's Mom was even prepared to let Lu Wu stay overnight.
What could Lu Wu do? He, of course, refused!
He was still a young bachelor who needed to maintain his integrity, he couldn't just spend the night outside, and besides, Dudu wasn't slim yet.
Lu Wu finally managed to escape from the enthusiastic Dudu's Mom and returned to his own house.
Lu Wu originally thought that it was already 12 o'clock, and there should be no one awake in his house, but as soon as he opened the door, he ran into his old dad.
"Hmm, he was sleeping on the sofa."
"What's going on?" Lu Wu asked curiously.
"I just told your mom that I might have to go on a business trip recently." Lu Haikong looked resentful.
Lu Wu immediately understood, "And then you got kicked out? Dad, I'm not saying anything, but your small company has little money and lots of problems. You wish you could go on business trips for 200 days a year. Why don't you change to another job?
Spend more time with my mom!"
"Get lost, do you think finding a job is that easy now? Do you think I want to? Forget it, not talking to you, you wouldn't understand even if I did, go to sleep!"
Lu Haikong pulled the blanket over his head, indicating that he didn't want to deal with Lu Wu.
Lu Wu shrugged, said nothing, and went straight to his room.
After Lu Wu went back to his room, Lu Haikong, who had previously covered his head with the blanket, peeked his head out, looked at Lu Wu's door, and muttered, "Seems like Little Skeleton's quality advanced!"
Then, Lu Haikong covered his head again and went back to sleep.
As for Lu Wu, after returning to his room, he began to ponder one issue: how to charge Little Skeleton's baseball bat.
Directly plug it into the socket?
Well, Lu Wu thought that wouldn't be a very good idea, but if he wanted to die on the spot, it could be used.
But Lu Wu didn't want to, so he had to think of something else.
"Could a phone charger work?"
Lu Wu's imagination went wild. He tried it and found out that, unexpectedly, it worked.
After plugging in the phone charger, the baseball bat had a new 'charging' progress bar, and it was quite fast; it estimated that it would finish in about three hours.
Seeing this progress bar, Lu Wu was dumbfounded.
A phone charger could fully charge it in two or three hours. Could this thing be lethal?
Forget about electrocuting a person, it probably couldn't even kill a mouse!
Lu Wu felt particularly disappointed, while Little Skeleton on the side, well, Little Skeleton was watching TV and had no comment.
"Since it can advance, maybe it will bring a surprise next time the quality upgrades."
At this point, Lu Wu could only comfort himself.
Then, Lu Wu put the charging bat aside and began his final pre-sleep task—writing a diary!
Lu Wu didn't know when he had developed the habit of writing a diary.
His diary was quite different from others; it was very detailed. From what happened today to the knowledge gained, to reflections on life, Lu Wu wrote everything he could think of.
Occasionally, Lu Wu would also write about his plans for tomorrow or the future, just like today.
In his diary, Lu Wu wrote:
"As of now, the previous considerations and accumulations about Little Skeleton's quality improvement have been exhausted. Little Skeleton's quality has increased, but it's already reached a halt. Given my current knowledge reserves, it will be difficult to enhance Little Skeleton's quality in the short term; it can only be polished slowly.
However, Little Skeleton's power is already sufficient for now, and what's important for me at this moment is not Little Skeleton's power improvement; it's finding a new teammate.
The high school competition requires a team of three to participate. With Dudu, there are only two of us, still one short.
Although the high school competition isn't until early next year, I can't wait until the last minute.
After all, nurturing a teammate takes time, and because we didn't join the elite class, things like secret realms and warm-up matches have to be managed on our own.
Therefore, to cultivate a qualified teammate, I need to start scouting for a suitable candidate during this period.
Hmm, let me list my requirements for a new teammate. Very simple, just three points: a girl, rich, and quite silly!"
Among these three, the most important was rich!
After all, Lu Wu wasn't doing charity. He himself was poor, and Little Skeleton's upgrades relied entirely on Li Kai's support. He couldn't find another poor person, could he?
If he found another poor person, Li Kai's family assets would be depleted, so he had to find a rich one to be the sucker.
Of course, if he could find a summoned beast with inherent nurturing value, combined with tactical value, from a wealthy family, good-looking, and silly, to be the new teammate, Lu Wu would be ecstatic.
But Lu Wu thought carefully and realized it wouldn't be that easy.
This type of person might exist in the school, but they probably weren't available for Lu Wu.
After all, those from wealthy families who wanted to become summoners were usually supported and placed in prominent classes without issue.
If someone from a wealthy family wanted to become a summoner and didn't get into an elite class, their summoned beast was probably incredibly useless.
Even the Little Skeleton from Lu Wu's family could be nurtured by others with a budget of one or two million, and there wouldn't be many more useless summoned beasts out there.
Therefore, real wealthy people willing to spend were mostly found in elite classes.
This gave Lu Wu quite a headache.
After pondering for a while, Lu Wu suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Ye Qingxue seemed to have said 'those who can't even beat ordinary class students have no right to stay in my class,' didn't she? Should I go to the elite class and find one to beat?"
