Chapter 2: Grass?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Li Pu was really disabled. He was really a cripple.

It was just that other cripples had one functioning leg and the other disabled.

On the other hand, one of Li Pu’s legs was normal, while the other was super strong.

Although his left and right legs didn’t look any different, his left leg was, in fact, extraordinarily strong.

He was born with it, and he didn’t know why.

This was also the reason why he would walk with a limp. The extreme imbalance between his legs led to this effect.

The commotion caused by the rolling turtle earlier was not small and had already attracted the attention of a few freshmen nearby.

When their gazes landed on Li Pu, they started discussing.

“Are my eyes playing tricks on me? Did he just kick over that summoned beast?”

“Isn’t this a little ridiculous? Could he be a second-year senior?”

“No, I think I’ve heard of him before. A super handsome crippled freshman.”

“Oh? What do you mean?”

“He’s the top scorer of our batch.”

“So powerful!”

“And he also got first place in the physical test.”

“Eh? Isn’t he a cripple?”

“I’m not sure about that, but it seems like he hasn’t successfully summoned a beast yet.”

“It can’t be, today is already the deadline…”

Li Pu’s hearing was extremely good as well, although he heard them, he didn’t mind. Instead, he walked into the pavilion and started to look around.

The interior of the Wind Listener Pavilion was very large, but the most eye-catching thing was the exhibition area in the center of the venue, which was more than 200 square meters.

There was no protection set up in the exhibition area, and there was only one thing inside.

It was a huge snail shell that almost filled the entire area.

The empty shell of the snail was divided into black and white. If one looked at it from the side, one would find that it vaguely resembled a Taiji pattern.

Li Pu had heard of it before he came. It was the highlight of the West Capital University’s Wind Listener Pavilion.

It was the remains of an A-grade Wind Listener magical beast, the Taiji snail.

He walked around the huge Taiji snail and towards the summoning platform in the corner of the pavilion.

The octagonal summoning platform was about a meter high, and there was a rocking chair at the start of the stairs. A bald old man with a palm-leaf fan was sitting on it, swaying back and forth while reading the newspaper.

The summoning platform wasn’t a very important facility. Moreover, West Capital University was an academy where students and staff had lots of freedom.

Therefore, both the student and the teacher-in-charge were not as formal with one another.

“Hello teacher, I would like to use the summoning platform.”

Li Pu walked forward and handed the temporary student card to the bald old man.

“Mm…”

The bald old man pulled down his presbyopic glasses and looked at his id, muttering, “Li Pu…Li Pu, the meaning of your name is simple and unadorned, what a good name.”

Then, he picked up the small device on the side of the rocking chair and swiped the card.

Ding ding!

After two crisp sounds, the machine’s screen lit up in green.

It showed 1/1.

This represented the number of times Li Pu could attempt to summon in the Wind Listener Pavilion.

“Wait a moment.”

After confirming that there was no mistake, the bald old man freed one hand and drew a circle in the air.

Buzzzzzz!

With a slight vibration, a round space passage the size of a watermelon opened.

The bald old man reached his hand into the space and began to search.

From Li Pu’s perspective, it looked like half of his arm had been swallowed by space.

However, he knew that this was a storage space that only a true Summoner had.

Not only could one’s summoned beast live in it, but it could also store some items.

Whoosh…

A few seconds later, the bald old man retracted his hand and the storage space closed.

He was holding a shiny blue talisman in his hand, which was emitting a mysterious light.

As mentioned before, the summoning platform wasn’t a very important facility.

This was because its main function came from the summoning talisman.

There were many ways to obtain a summoned beast, such as hatching, taming, and so on.

However, for newcomers, the safest, most efficient, and most in line with a Summoner was the talisman summoning.

As for the one that the bald old man took out, it was the lowest level of the summoning talismans, the beginner blue talisman.

This Kind of blue talisman had a very high success rate of summoning, far higher than ordinary blue talismans.

The reason why it was called the beginner blue talisman was that it was only suitable for beginners who had the potential to become a Summoner but had not awakened to become one.

If it was used by an awakened Summoner, it would be ineffective.

“Thank you, teacher.”

Li Pu took the blue talisman and nodded, then he went up the stairs.

He walked onto the summoning platform and looked at the eight trigrams on the ground. He was already familiar with the entire process.

One only needed to write any symbol or spell on the blue talisman and then tear it apart to complete the summoning ritual.

As for whether he could find a suitable summoned beast in an unknown world, it would depend on fate.

“Hurry up.”

Li Pu just wanted to do his routine and quickly end this mess.

So he stretched out his finger and scribbled a very simple symbol on the blue talisman that did not have any special meaning.

[ 艹 ]

Then, he grabbed the two ends of the blue talisman with his left and right hands and tore the paper apart.

Rip…!

With the blue talisman torn into half, a faint green light burst out from the crack, and it gradually bloomed.

“D*mn, this is bad…”

Li Pu was stunned when he saw this.

He had never encountered such a situation in the previous six talismans.

However, having witnessed the success of many new students’ summoning, he knew that he was going to suffer this time.

“Oh! Quickly look! Someone has successfully summoned a beast!”

“There’s still someone summoning at this time? How strange.”

“It’s coming, what kind of summoned beast will it be?”

“I’m really curious what grade it is.”

The commotion on the summoning platform attracted the attention of many new students.

As for the bald old man who was the closest to the stage, he carried out his duty and picked up the device again.

He scanned the green light on the stage.

Ding!

After the crisp sound, a line of information appeared on the machine’s screen.

[ 6, F ]

6 points of combat strength, F-grade.

“This is a very normal result.”

In response, the bald old man merely curled his lips.

F-grade was the lowest class of all.

However, this was a very normal phenomenon. After all, there was a price to pay for the high success rate of beginner blue talismans.

In every batch of new students, at least half of them would be able to summon a grade F beast.

As for the 6 points of combat strength… this beast was just a step away from being a weakling.

The combat strength represented the overall quality of the summoned beast in all aspects. It could roughly evaluate its strength within a certain range.

To make a simple comparison, the average combat strength of an ordinary adult was about 12 points.

This meant that the beast that Li Pu had summoned could only beat half a normal person.

“Let’s go, let’s go. Another F-grade. There’s nothing to see.”

“Sigh, the drop rate of F-grade is really high.”

“Let’s make use of this opportunity to practice. The day after tomorrow, we’ll be competing for the class selection.”

“I’ve heard that the competition for the slots for the popular teachers and courses is particularly intense…”

When the freshmen who had come to watch the show saw the display on the bald old man’s device, they quickly dispersed.

Li Pu didn’t pay much attention to what was happening below the stage because all his attention was on the summoning ritual.

At this moment, the green light completely solidified and circled in the air for a few rounds. Finally, it slowly landed on the summoning platform and condensed into a human-shaped light.

The figure was about a head shorter than Li Pu. Its shape looked a little like the little green person on the traffic light that represented “Go”.

As time passed, the thing inside the light seemed to become more and more solid.

At a certain moment, the light suddenly dissipated, revealing the appearance of the summoned beast.

“Grass?”

Li Pu tilted his head and frowned.
