The match ended, and Guzhentian was called over to drink chicken soup, while Lu Wu also began to get busy.
He went to abduct Wu Wei’s Monkey from Wu Wei’s house.
Isn’t it said that to awaken the “Power of Inheritance” Talent, one must research Inheritance Skills?
Lu Wu had only seen two individuals who could “Master Inheritance Skills,” one was Guzhentian and the other was Wu Wei.
Guzhentian’s side was clearly not an option, so Lu Wu could only start by practicing on Wu Wei’s Monkey.
“Come on, make it snappy. Tell me everything you know about ‘Skyward Strike,’ make it easy on yourself, and don’t make me force you, got it?”
In the research room.
Though it was supposed to be a legitimate research undertaking for Lu Wu,
he insisted on making it look particularly shady and unserious.
Wu Wei’s Monkey was shivering in fear.
Its monkey head kept looking around, searching for its lovely and adorable owner.
But all it saw upon scanning the room were the seedy-looking Lu Wu and Little Skeleton, who was weighing a Bone Staff in his hands looking particularly streetwise.
In the end, the monkey, feeling utterly helpless, huddled in a corner, hugging its own shoulders. It shared the information it knew about “Skyward Strike” through its “Status Bar.”
After listening, Lu Wu injected the monkey with a syringe.
The injection contained a special potion, developed by the Cultivation Masters at Jiangnan University’s Cultivation Institute, which made the monkey’s body exceptionally sensitive.
Of course, Jiangnan University was a legitimate school, and its research rooms were staffed by serious researchers. The sensitivity referred to here involved a sensitivity to the flow and changes of Energy.
Once the monkey showed a reaction, Lu Wu cast “Damage Sharing” on it.
Then, he made the monkey charge up “Skyward Strike” repeatedly.
That’s right, merely charging the skill and not allowing it to release the attack.
While the monkey was in this state and charging “Skyward Strike,” Lu Wu could feel what it was like.
After repeating this several times, Lu Wu started to get a faint sense of it.
After about a dozen tries,
Lu Wu finally caught that sensation fully just as the monkey was about to collapse.
Almost at that same instant, Lu Wu’s attribute panel changed.
…
Power of Inheritance: Awakening in progress (Detected Inheritance Skill “Skyward Strike” information, completion of information 45%, Power of Inheritance taking effect, skill information being repaired.)
…
“What does this mean?”
Lu Wu couldn’t quite understand his attribute panel.
But he had a vague feeling that a mysterious power was at work inside him.
About half an hour later, Lu Wu felt a jolt throughout his body, followed by a surge of information that flooded his mind.
Undoubtedly, this surge of information was the Inheritance Skill “Skyward Stick.”
Simultaneously, Lu Wu’s attribute panel underwent another change.
“Skyward Stick” appeared as a Skill, and the Power of Inheritance Skill reverted to the dormant state of awakening in progress.
Looking at his attribute panel, Lu Wu always felt a sense of unreality.
He had extensively researched Inheritance Skills before, invested a lot of effort without much result, which led him to doubt whether his “system” was fake.
Yet now, he had learned the Skill “Skyward Stick” in less than an hour.
It also made Lu Wu wonder if he had inadvertently enabled some cheat.
Regardless, with this new Inheritance Skill, Lu Wu was itching to give it a try.
So, he set his doubts aside, along with the nearly broken monkey, and went to find a local training room with Dudu and his own Little Skeleton.
After more than a year, Lu Wu was opening a training room with Dudu again.
However, unlike before when the purpose of opening a training room was for Little Skeleton to take hits, this time Lu Wu wanted to play himself.
He picked up Little Skeleton’s Bone Staff and began to recall the information on “Skyward Strike.”
After about ten minutes, having almost mastered the Skill, Lu Wu raised the Bone Staff and brought it down with a heavy, forceful strike.
With one smash, three layers of Lu Wu’s Energy vanished instantly.
The target in front of him, which was reputed to withstand Lord Level attacks, was completely blown away, and not just that—the training room behind the target was reduced to ruins.
Seeing the destructive power of this single blow, even Lu Wu couldn’t help but gasp in astonishment.
The power of “Skyward Strike,” at its entry-level, was terrifying.
If he were to refine “Skyward Strike” to Master Level, how fearsome would the power be?
And furthermore,
“I remember Little Gu’s family had another Inheritance Skill on their Shanzhai Monkey.”
At that moment, Lu Wu suddenly felt that he and Little Gu hit it off well and seemed quite suitable to be friends.
Lu Wu was the kind of person who acted upon his words.
He immediately went looking for Little Gu.
During the university competition, the injured Summoned Beasts of the students and referees were taken care of by a professional medical team.
Lu Wu took Dudu and went to visit Little Gu under the guise of paying a visit.
However, when Lu Wu arrived, he found that Little Gu was not there; upon enquiry, he learned that Little Gu’s Monkey was almost healed and had taken it home.
“Sigh, why didn’t I let Indeks hit it harder back then?
If only Indeks hadn’t failed me, I could have made friends with Little Gu!”
Thankfully, Loli Dragon didn’t overhear this, otherwise she would have certainly bitten Lu Wu.
Although Lu Wu didn’t manage to make friends with Little Gu as he had hoped, he didn’t just leave.
With the mindset of a thief not leaving empty-handed, if he couldn’t make friends with Little Gu, Lu Wu figured he could make friends with someone else.
Lu Wu’s eyes scanned the Phoenix Nest Training Ground’s medical room and soon spotted a friend of interest.
…

…
Upon seeing the attributes of this Summoned Beast, Lu Wu’s eyes lit up on the spot.
Looking at the foreign friend next to the Summoned Beast, Lu Wu approached with a warm smile on his face, this friendship was as good as settled!
However, in the end, Lu Wu failed to make friends with this foreigner.
For one, they couldn’t understand each other’s language, and for another, the foreigner seemed to be somewhat afraid of him.
Additionally, the way Lu Wu looked at Steel Armor Hero made him particularly nervous, so Lu Wu hadn’t talked to him for a few sentences before the guy ran away.
Failing to make friends, Lu Wu could only go back to training his staff movements with a sense of injustice.
Skyward Strike had a considerable consumption and backlash.
Even the Shanzhai Monkey from Guzhentian could only swing it three or four times, but it was different for Lu Wu.
On one hand, he had Little Skeleton’s phone which contained 30 energy points that were attribute-free and available for use at any time; he wasn’t afraid of running out.
As for the backlash,
Lu Wu’s “Unyielding·Growth” skill had already reached “Master Level”; a bit of backlash didn’t scare him.
Plus, with money at home, nutrition keeping up, and Green Cub from Dudu’s family by his side,
Lu Wu directly booked the highest-level Cultivation Room and swung 99 times from afternoon to evening.
While messing up the training ground, he took merely one day to feed the “Skyward Strike” from “entry-level” to “Master Level,” mastering it no less than the Shanzhai Monkey.
This frightening speed of progress, thank goodness Guzhentian didn’t witness it, or else he might’ve been depressed again.
Of course, such a speed of progress was normal for Lu Wu.
On one hand, his talent was freakishly strong.
On the other, the amount Lu Wu practiced in one day, 99 swings, would take Wu Wei over a year, and the Shanzhai Monkey a month.
When the quantity increased, the quality naturally followed, so it was normal for him to progress quickly.
It was just quite costly.
In one day, Lu Wu had spent nearly 200,000 points just on nutrition and destroying two training rooms.
Fortunately, Lu Wu’s house had a large enterprise, anyone else would have been crying.
…
Early the next morning.
Eager to become friends with Little Gu, Lu Wu arrived early at the Phoenix Nest Training Ground with Dudu.
He not only came, but also prepared a large batch of props to cheer for Little Gu.
The moment he arrived, Lu Wu started organizing everything.
With a silly expression and wings unfurled, he held a banner saying “Cheer for Guzhentian,” while Little Skeleton and Green Cub both waved flags. Lu Wu even took a megaphone and shouted from time to time, looking just like a fan club for Little Gu.
This nearly sent Guzhentian, who had finally adjusted his mindset, into self-seclusion again.
Seeing this, Gutian immediately came over to talk to Lu Wu.
After all, it took effort to boost Guzhentian’s morale; he couldn’t let Lu Wu disrupt Guzhentian’s state of mind again.
“Master Lu, what are you doing?”
“I’m cheering for Brother Zhen Tian, can’t you tell?”
Lu Wu looked puzzled and innocent, and Old Gu felt a surge of rage that almost made him spit blood.
Struggling to calm himself, his mind raced.
Ever since the Elder Council had warned Gutian, he had a deep understanding of Lu Wu; he knew this guy was definitely up to something for a profit, and today’s move had a purpose.
To solve this issue, Gutian had to figure out Lu Wu’s demands.
Thus, Gutian started beating around the bush, while Lu Wu got straight to the point.
“Old Gu, don’t overthink it. I’m not here to retaliate against Brother Zhen Tian.
I’m neither looking to extort anything!
Everyone knows what I, Lu Wu, am like. Broad-minded, and definitely not one to hold a grudge against you for pushing our Old Zhang to Beast Soul Burst, resenting your “Steel Bull Evolution” products’ price gouging, nor for Brother Zhen Tian’s actions yesterday.
I’m not that kind of person!
I just feel like I clicked with Brother Zhen Tian, want to be friends with him, and just want to invite his monkey to visit my Cultivation Room for ten days or a half month, that’s all.”
Upon hearing this, Gutian understood.
All this time, Lu Wu had been eyeing the Inheritance Skill of the Shanzhai Monkey.
Knowing this, Gutian also relaxed.
It was normal to be interested in an Inheritance Skill, any Summoned Beast or Cultivation Master would be.
It wasn’t odd for Lu Wu to be tempted.
If he wanted to study it, Gutian had no intention of stopping him.
It wasn’t necessary.
For one, researching Inheritance Skills is extremely difficult. The Alliance has spent hundreds of years with no successes; Lu Wu, despite his terrifying cultivation talent, would be no exception.
Moreover, Lu Wu himself also had a monkey; even if he refused, it wouldn’t make much difference.
Thus, Gutian eventually reached a friendly agreement with Lu Wu.
After the top 32 battles, Gutian would lend the Shanzhai Monkey to Lu Wu for three days.
Just like that, Lu Wu easily achieved his goal and cheerfully cleaned up all the props.
The second round of the top 32 battles finally officially began…
