My Ability Pool is Superior

Chapter 130: Cash Reward



In fact, it was not that Lu Bai had particularly good eyesight.

It was purely that the little kid spotted Lu Bai from a great distance away and immediately started waving at him frantically.

As soon as Lu Bai stepped out of the school gate, he was hugged by Lu Qingyan who pounced on him.

“Big bro, why did you come out so early this time?”

“I’m a special case.” Lu Bai brushed it off casually.

Lu Ziyi at the side saw that he was not missing an arm or a leg, so she did not say much and simply said, “Then let’s go home.”

“If you’re not in a hurry, you can wait a bit first.”

Lu Bai’s tone sounded very gentle.

Based on his understanding of this world, he was certain that it would not be long before someone came chasing after him.

“Waiting for what?” Lu Ziyi asked subconsciously.

Lu Bai gave a succinct reply: “Waiting for someone to deliver money.”

To be honest, he could have just stayed in the multi-purpose venue the whole time, as verification would not take much time anyway.

It was only because he knew the Lu family siblings would be waiting for him at the school gate that he decided to come out first and meet up with the brother and sister.

Improving quality of life was something that naturally included bringing along this pair of siblings. To avoid having to explain extra, he simply decided to wait for school personnel to come and explain the situation to them.

Lu Bai blended in with this pair of siblings among the crowd, without attracting much attention. There were plenty of family members waiting for students at the school gate.

Subsequent developments were also not out of Lu Bai’s expectations.

Not long after, a large group of people led by Counselor Liang Fuzhong came rushing out urgently from the other end of the road.

At this moment, Liang Fuzhong’s mood was extremely complicated.

It was no exaggeration to say that even now that it had been verified, his student had indeed taken first place consecutively in the deathmatch duels, he still felt it was very unreal deep down.

Because this was simply too unbelievable.

Not to mention Chen Li, even he as the counselor had believed Lu Bai was talking nonsense before the news was verified.

This was partly due to stereotype, and partly because the results were too astonishing.

So fantastical that it was hard to believe. Was this really a student cultivated by Zu Dian Campus?

“Has anyone seen which way Student Lu went?”

“Liu, team leader, go to the guardhouse and check the surveillance to see if Student Lu has left the campus.”

“Hurry up, we absolutely cannot let people from other campuses contact Lu Bai first.”

After directing his subordinate faculty and staff, Liang Fuzhong wiped the sweat beads from his forehead. While looking around left and right, the corner of his eye inadvertently caught sight of that familiar figure at the school gate.

“Lu Bai?!”

Liang Fuzhong was nearly overcome with excitement and gasped for breath, hurriedly running over at a small jog.

And as if afraid that Lu Bai would suddenly run off, he reached out both hands and gripped Lu Bai’s right hand tightly.

“Great, Student Lu Bai, we finally found you.”

“Don’t rush, catch your breath first.”

Lu Bai calmly tried to pull his right hand free, but failed.

“Ah, you two must be Student Lu Bai’s younger brother and sister, right? Sure enough, the whole family is so good-looking.”

Liang Fuzhong awkwardly offered hospitality: “This isn’t a good place to talk. How about we go inside the campus to a reception room and chat?”

This strange turn of events left Lu Qingyan and Lu Ziyi both dumbfounded, completely unsure of the current situation.

Liang Fuzhong did not have much impression of them, but they knew very well who their big bro’s counselor was.

……

The luxurious reception room had lush potted plants in every corner as decoration.

The several sofas in the room had a delicate feel, beautiful texture, and a quality that combined both texture and comfort. One look showed they were not cheap.

This made Lu Ziyi feel uncomfortable all over while sitting on the sofa, and even Lu Qingyan did not fool around like he usually did at home.

Lu Bai, on the other hand, did not feel much about it and responded half-heartedly to the praise from Liang Fuzhong and the others.

Such nutrient-lacking conversation did not last long. The green tea in front of Lu Bai was still steaming when Vice Principal Guan hurriedly pushed the door open and entered.

As soon as Vice Principal Guan entered the room, he shed the stern demeanor he had shown in front of Chen Li and put on a kindly face.

Sitting down opposite Lu Bai, he said warmly: “You’re Student Lu, right? I’m Vice Principal Guan Yongxiao. I’ve heard about the matter. This time, it was our school that wronged you.

But rest assured, one director like Chen Li does not have the qualification to expel a student. As long as you are willing, you will always be a member of Zu Dian Campus.

Moreover, our school has always adhered to the principles of fairness and justice, and will certainly handle Director Chen Li severely.”

“Thank you, Principal Guan.”

When Lu Bai smiled, the harmless aura he exuded from head to toe made him seem very friendly no matter what he said: “Don’t worry, I never said I wanted to drop out.”

He could fully understand Chen Li. That Director Chen was just a bit too strong in personality.

After all, after formally becoming a death fighter, under the influence of societal consensus and self-cognition, one would inevitably fall into a certain elitist arrogance. This was an unavoidable result of human nature.

So he actually was not really dissatisfied. Choosing to leave the multi-purpose venue was partly because he was too lazy to argue with people.

It was just that this action seemed somewhat frightening to the school personnel after the information was verified, as they feared Lu Bai had transferred schools in a fit of anger.

Hearing Lu Bai’s stance, Guan Yongxiao clapped his hands and laughed heartily.

“Excellent, excellent! Not arrogant or impatient. No wonder you achieved such outstanding results in the deathmatch arena.”

After brief pleasantries, Guan Yongxiao got straight to the point.

“According to our campus regulations, students who took first place in the first three rounds of deathmatch duels will receive a reward of five hundred thousand Yiju Coins.”

Guan Yongxiao continued: “But given your such excellent performance, the school has decided to give an additional one million in rewards.”

Adding up to a total of two million Yiju Coins.

For Lu Bai, who made three thousand a month, this was a huge sum, enough at least to stop eating synthetic food.

Lu Qingyan at the side, upon hearing this number, jumped up directly, his eyes nearly turning into the shape of currency.

Even though Lu Ziyi did not lose composure like the little kid, her hands on her knees unconsciously clenched tight, and she forgot to pull Lu Qingyan back.

It was worth mentioning that the additional one million Yiju Coins reward at the end was actually from Guan Yongxiao’s own pocket, and he had not yet discussed it with the principal.

As vice principal, he was naturally an old hand.

The moment he entered, he judged that these three siblings were in economic straits.

Being able to win favor with money was great. He would not mind throwing in another million.

The door to the reception room was knocked on.

Soon another group of people filed in.

The old man at the lead had an impressive bearing, with his snow-white hair neatly groomed.

Chen Li followed dispiritedly behind the old man, like an eggplant hit by frost.

The old man walked up to Lu Bai and, unlike Vice Principal Guan’s affability, showed an attitude of treating him as an equal.

He extended his right hand and said solemnly: “I am the principal of Zu Dian Campus, Pu Xueli.”
