Skeleton’s Training Manual

Chapter 12: 012 Graduation Ceremony

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

June 28th was the day before the start of summer vacation, and it was also the day of the graduation ceremony.

To prepare for this day, all the students in the first and second years were mobilized yesterday.

Bustling about an entire day, hanging up all kinds of banners around the school, setting up decorations from the school gate all the way to the auditorium, making the school all bells and whistles!

What’s more, all the first and second year students had been assigned to act as background displays on the big day.

Standing in the classroom corridor, or on both sides of the red carpet that laid from the school gate to the auditorium.

Either holding a bouquet or a banner.

All these arrangements were meant for the graduation ceremony of the senior year students.

Or more accurately, all these were meant for the graduation ceremony of just the three seniors who had received an offer from the summoner’s universities.

The graduation ceremony officially started at 8 o’clock in the morning.

At 8 o’clock sharp, a shuttle bus pulled up to the school gate and opened its doors. In it sat the students from the special class, who had not appeared in school since a few months ago.

The first to get off the bus was a group of three girls and two boys.

With the warm welcome of the school leaders, the 55 students from the special class stepped one by one onto the red carpet, bringing along all kinds of summoned beasts. Under everyone’s gaze, either admiring, jealous or welcoming, they walked all the way from the school gate to the auditorium.

In this moment, the three seniors who were admitted to the summoner’s universities were absolutely the centre of attention.

All the spotlight was concentrated on them.

In front of them, even the school leaders lost their shine.

As one of the spectators, it wasn’t until this moment that Lu Wu fully realized what it meant to be admitted to the summoner’s universities.

For students in this world, being admitted to any of the summoner’s universities was almost equivalent to being admitted to the two top universities in the country in his previous life.

Or more accurately, it was more so than that!

It was also at this time that he really understood what kind of goal he had set for himself.

The pressure on Lu Wu increased exponentially. He suddenly and truly realised the difficulty of entering the summoner’s universities, but at the same time, Lu Wu’s morale boosted!

Isn’t it just the summoner’s universities?

Pass the exam!

He didn’t believe that as a transmigrated individual with a golden finger, he would be stumped by this!

While Lu Wu was full of excitement and high in spirit, his eyes had been fixed on the summoned beasts of the seniors from the special class.

Because the seniors from the special class had not been in school previously, he had not touched their summoned beasts before and did not know the standard of their summoned beasts.

Now that Lu Wu saw these summoned beasts, he really wanted to know their standards.

Not only did he want to know the standard of the summoned beasts from the seniors who entered the special class, he also wanted to know the level of those from the seniors who were admitted to the summoner’s universities!

Of course, Lu Wu could not just rush up and touch them.

If he did that, he would definitely be beaten up.

So before the graduation ceremony was over, Lu Wu could only stand by the side being a background display, watching uninterestedly at this particularly boring graduation ceremony.

Lu Wu didn’t know how these school leaders had so many words to say, dragging on the graduation ceremony for four whole hours!

Either expressing their commendation or lecturing, it wasn’t until almost twelve o’clock that the ceremony finally ended.

After the agonising ceremony was over, Pang Tutu was about to take out the bento that she had prepared and had been hiding for the whole morning when Lu Wu called her just a tad faster.

“Help me watch it!”

Lu Wu pushed Skeleton to Pang Tutu’s side, then rushed to the female seniors in the special class on his own.

Well, yes, just the female seniors!

Lu Wu didn’t plan on striking up a conversation with the male seniors!

It was not for any particular reason, but just that somehow those male seniors tended to be very cold towards him and liked to glare at him, not friendly at all!

In contrast, the female seniors were much more approachable.

All of them were beautiful, with melodious voices and gentle attitudes.

See? As soon as Lu Wu approached the group of female seniors, and without much effort, he had mingled among them. He was surrounded by the crowd of girls, and even the three seniors who were admitted to the summoner’s universities came over.

Seeing this, the male schoolmates deeply feel the unfairness of life, all of them just wanted to kick Lu Wu away and replace his position themselves.

Of course, many female schoolmates felt the same, but it was just that it was not Lu Wu they wanted to replace.

Well, that was the advantage of a handsome face.

The female schoolmates didn’t care whether Lu Wu’s summoned beast was Skeleton, whether he had any potential or talent, and whether he was a scumbag. For them, as long as Lu Wu was “average-looking” and talked sweetly, it was enough!

From Lu Wu’s perspective, he originally intended to just get his hand on the seniors’ summoned beasts to see their attributes.

But the seniors were unexpectedly enthusiastic, so Lu Wu went ahead to dine with them.

While looking at the attributes of the seniors’ summoned beasts, he could also gather from them information about the special class and the National High School League.

All thanks to Lu Wu’s “average-looking” face, the seniors told Lu Wu everything they knew without reserve.

Lu Wu not only got the information he wanted, but also got the contacts of more than a dozen female seniors from the special class. He even added the three female seniors who were admitted to the summoner’s universities as friends.

At the end of the gathering, Lu Wu even managed to borrow the teaching materials of the special class from one of the seniors. For Lu Wu, it could be said to be a very fruitful meeting.

But while Lu Wu was content with his harvest, Pang Tutu was feeling very low.

Holding the bento that she had gotten up early in the morning to prepare for two hours in one hand and holding her piglet in the other, she endured hunger and fear as she sat with Skeleton in a remote corner of the school cafeteria.

Looking over at Lu Wu who was surrounded by all those good-looking girls, Pang Tutu felt uncomfortable and a little wronged.

But she dared not say anything, and neither could go too far.

Skeleton was Lu Wu’s summoned beast; it could not stay too far from Lu Wu. She was afraid that Lu Wu would be unhappy with her if she left.

She didn’t even dare to eat.

Although she saw Lu Wu eating with those seniors, what if Lu Wu was still hungry after that and wanted to eat the bento she made?

Lu Wu had said yesterday that he wanted to taste her cooking today.

Although she knew it herself that Lu Wu just said it casually and may have already forgotten it now, she was still worried. She was worried that if she ate first, she wouldn’t be able to eat with Lu Wu later.

No choice, she could only endure her hunger, squatting on the side to wait for Lu Wu.

From time to time, she would look towards Lu Wu. She was worried that Lu Wu might leave without her knowing, causing the distance between him and Skeleton to be too far.

Her wait lasted two whole hours.

Two hours later, Lu Wu said goodbye to the group of seniors contentedly, and sat in the cafeteria in a daze.

But Pang Tutu was still afraid of approaching him. She had to repeatedly confirm that Lu Wu really was done, then she cautiously went over.

Even when Lu Wu was in a daze, she dared not disturb him. She sat on the side and waited for Lu Wu to discover her presence after waking up from his daze.
