Chapter 201: Whiskey with Wolfberries (Part 3)
Finally, it was time for the parents meeting to be held again . Previously, daoyuan class announced a 4-day break but no one turned up for classes even after that . This was because the daoyuan class never mentioned when classes would start again .
Even without attending the daoyuan class, everyone was training at home .
On the other hand, Lu Shu would allocate a portion of his time to study since he felt that the knowledge of a sophomore student wasn't enough for this world .
Nighttime has fallen and Luo Cheng was busier than usual . This commotion was due to the heavenly network people since Luo Cheng international school had just been invaded by a metahuman .
As of now, they couldn't identify that metahuman's power and couldn't determine his class .
But based on their current judgment, that metahuman seemed to have mastered an advanced transformation technique unique to an elemental type . But without witnessing it with their own eyes, Li Yixiao and the rest couldn't confirm the metahuman's real ability .
Could it be the shadow element? This element hasn't been encountered so far .
But what really puzzled them was that the other party was extremely strong . Being able to jump to such heights was something only a Class E-D strength-type was capable of .
Of course, this wasn't an impossible feat . Everyone knew that a metahuman's physical abilities would level up with training .
As such, the heavenly network categorized the intruder as the following for the time being- Suspected duo identity of practitioner and metahuman .
At a higher level of training, the experts within the heavenly network would start being envious of colleagues that had awakened .
Of course, some felt that effort was much more important than a lucky breakthrough .
Li Yixiao was the representation of such people . In more than one instance, he referred to metahumans as clowns . From his point of view, someone who had never been through tough training to acquire their individual powers was the same as being useless .

His words weren't without a basis . His power had been cultivated bit by bit and his mastery over his own strength was the result of his own hard work .
As for those metahumans who awakened, they had never been through the process of discovering and familiarising themselves with their own powers which explained why Li Yixiao never thought highly of them .
But others were not convinced- metahumans' powers were ever-changing and what if someone got hold of a power to control time and space, would Li Yixiao still be so arrogant?
There were billions of people in this world with billions of different mindsets . Even within the heavenly network where everyone possessed a similar advanced level of thinking, different opinions about the potentials of training would still arise .
This was a normal occurrence .
It would be strange if everyone had the same opinion .
Lu Shu flashed his student pass to enter the school, recalling how he and Lu Xiaoyu had just broken into the school that morning . And to think that this ordinary-looking security personnel was apt in combat, Lu Shu felt a little admiration for them .
If not for practitioners, these people would probably be more successful .
As he passed by the classrooms downstairs, he overheard two security guards, "Was he really laughing?"
"Yeah, his laughter gave me goosebumps and he wasn't even wearing clothes!"
In fact, Lu Shu received a lot of distress points today and lighting up the sixth star was just a step away . . .
This meeting did not only involve the parents but the students too . If you wished to quit, then both parents and child would have to sign the agreement followed by sealing of the chakras .
If you wished to formally join the heavenly network, the enrollment procedures would take place on the same night and so would the awarding of rank . This was considered a special procedure and it was a quick process .

Lu Shu understood that this was a special treatment for practitioners and also to prevent practitioners from affecting social stability and prosperity, everything had to be fast .
If it was a normal procedure, it would have taken up to a few weeks to process .
At this moment, Lu Shu bumped into Xi Fei who asked directly, "Continue or quit?"
"Continue," Lu Shu answered without hesitation .
Xi Fei started laughing, "Then congratulations to you . If you, Jiang Shuyi and Cao Qingci stay, you three would be directly awarded the rank of Lieutenant as a reward for your performance inside the remains . "
Lu Shu was stunned . That's awesome . Doesn't this mean that my pay will be higher than the rest?
To be honest, Jiang Shuyi's performance inside the remains wasn't as impressive as his or Cao Qingci's but the catch was his family background . Lu Shu didn't find this unfair and was happy to see Jiang Shuyi rising up the ranks . Wishing the best for his friend, this was a real friendship .
On the other hand, some other people were strange . Addressing each other as brothers but when one was more successful than the other, the other friend would secretly hope for his friend's death .
At this moment, Lu Shu signed the agreement and stood at one side to observe the other parents with their children .
This Daoyuan parents meeting had no room for discussion as everyone was only given two options, to stay or to quit .
It was extremely strict .
It seemed like about a fifth of the students were quitting and their chakras were about to be sealed, never to be used again .
Lu Shu wasn't sure about the situation in other classes but he reckoned that the number of students quitting wouldn't be too few . After all, a common viewpoint on this issue was that in the face of dangers, parents would lean towards a safer option for their children .
A fifth wasn't too few or many .
Lu Shu stood aside to watch the commotion and it turned out that most of the parents had talked about this Lu Shu student with their children . As a result, their impression of Lu Shu had changed for the worse…
Liu Li's father was one of them . After hearing from his son about Lu Shu's disturbance outside the remains, he was fuming mad . In fact, he had spent a fortune on Liu Li's training and just treating his hair loss cost more than 100k which wasn't even effective!
Liu Jianguo was a businessman and had always been in power . As he walked to the podium to sign the papers, he glanced over to Lu Shu, "Young man, control your teenage energy . "
Liu Li was still a child and what most normal students would think of for revenge would be a fight, or to gather a gang to beat him up and would never think about murder . But Liu Jianguo was different . He was from an older generation and the business industry at that point in time was like a battle zone .
Lu Shu replied cheekily, "Uncle, your son's hairstyle is aging . Do buy him some wolfberries on the way home . At this age, drinking whiskey with wolfberries isn't shameful . "
"From Liu Li's distress, +999 . "
"From Liu Jianguo's distress, +666 . "
Lu Shu was delighted . The distress points he needed to light up the sixth star was finally here!

How to raise a Hive Queen
This story is about a newborn Hive Queen, which gets raised in an unexpected environment. The first part of the story will focus on her development and the challenges that come with it. Eventually she will start to produce her own swarm of hive creatures. The species of the Hive Queen is called the Sylv and they are a insectoid species with an hive mind. The Sylv can evolve themselves through extracting traits from other non Sylv creatures. This is limited to modify the basic set of creatures the Sylv can produce, they are not able to create completely new creatures. In this regard they are more like ants, who have workers, soldiers and queen ants. The Sylv live underground in so called hive complexes and use living structures in them to produce more of their kind. The Hive Queen is the leader of a Sylv Hive and responsible for evolving the swarm. This novel takes place in a fantasy setting and was inspired by other hive species like the Zerg from "Starcraft" made by Blizzard Entertainment, the Arachnea from "Her majesty's swarm" published on j-novel club, and the Vex from "I don't want to be the Hive Queen" by ValetheHowl. I really enjoy stories with an organic hive mind species and want to contribute myself. The focus and theme of this story will change as the Hive Queen matures and defines the goals she wants to achieve. If you like this story also check out my other fiction "To former Glory" here on Royal Road :D
