I logged into the God panel.

Chapter 5: Going to School

My mom's final answer was that she needed to discuss it with my dad.

After Li Bohe left,

Urged by Zhao Baiqin, at just 9:30, the siblings were reluctantly sent to wash up and return to their respective rooms to rest.

Lying in bed, Lu Daosheng rubbed his temples, a thoughtful expression on his face.

"Mom... has a secret."

He clearly remembered that a few days ago, his mother brought home a howling puppet, and he almost got angry just from touching it.

Then she didn't know where she put the puppet. After her father came home, Lu Yu mentioned the puppet, but when her father, Lu Tianyang, asked about it,

My mother casually brushed it off, saying it was just a little trinket and she had already given it away.

At that time, Lu Daosheng felt something was amiss, and considering today's situation...

"Mom must be able to see that 'ghost'."

I took a deep breath and was pondering when my mother's loud, shrewish roar came from outside.

"Lu! Yu!"

Then came the noise, the sound of a door opening, and Lu Yu from the next room called out in a pitiful voice:

"What?! Where did I touch your foundation... Maybe it was my little brother?"

"Why would your little brother, a guy, need to wear foundation!"

Lu Daosheng listened silently, shrinking his neck.

After a long period of noise, the house gradually quieted down. Waves of drowsiness washed over him. Lu Daosheng held the necklace, feeling the subtle, continuous flow of ice.

……

Three o'clock in the morning.

Lu Tianyang quietly opened the door.

"You're back?" Zhao Baiqin asked softly.

He saw his wife sitting on the sofa, somewhat surprised:

Why aren't you asleep yet?

Zhao Baiqin was helpless:

"If I go to sleep, won't you have to sleep on the sofa again?"

In the past, when her husband came home late, he would just sleep on the sofa for the night so as not to disturb her.

"I mainly want to discuss something with you..."

Zhao Baiqin frowned and recounted what had happened earlier.

"White Elephant Academy?"

Lu Tianyang took off his shoes and socks and put on the bear slippers his daughter had given him for his birthday last year. "Want to become a scholar?"

He sat beside his wife, his brow furrowed.

"Honey, as a teacher, you might not know much about this, but we police officers do. Schools like White Elephant Academy are directly linked to certain churches."

After a moment's pause, Lu Tianyang shook his head:

"I don't want Xiaoyu and Daosheng to get involved in the supernatural. Even if they really have to get involved, it's better for them to be apprentices than scholars."

He added:

"Apprentices only need to practice secret martial arts, but scholars need to truly engage with the mystical, which is too dangerous."

"I'm an archaeologist, I know more about it than you do." Zhao Baiqin rolled her eyes. "But I have a different opinion."

"How so?" Lu Tianyang asked curiously.

Zhao Baiqin thought for a moment and said:

"My son is a bit too withdrawn."

She sighed softly:

"I asked Daosheng's homeroom teacher several times, and he said he has almost no friends in the class. I suspect he might be...isolated?"

"School bullying?" Lu Tianyang's expression darkened.

Zhao Baiqin nodded:

"Moreover, Daosheng is not very interested in learning. Teacher Zhang said that he has hardly ever done any homework, but he always gets the first place in the grade in every exam."

"Our son is a genius... at least smarter than Xiaoyu."

Lu Tianyang seemed to be deep in thought:

"you mean?"

"I originally wanted Daosheng to have a change of environment and a different school, and White Elephant Academy is a good choice."

Listening to his wife's words,

Lu Tianyang was silent for a moment, and just as he was about to shake his head in rejection, his wife patted his hand:

"Let the two children give it a try. It's not certain whether they can pass the spiritual test. Besides, even if they get into White Elephant Academy, they don't necessarily have to become 'scholars' who study the mystical. They can also become 'apprentices' who practice secret martial arts."

Lu Tianyang remained silent for a long while, then suddenly asked:

"Bai Qin, you seem to know quite a bit about White Elephant Academy?"

Zhao Baiqin remained calm and nonchalant, saying:

"Archaeology often involves dealing with mysterious things, and that's when you have to interact with these 'professionals.' I've met quite a few priests... and you're no exception?"

Lu Tianyang shrugged:

"We police officers usually have more contact with apprentices, and occasionally we encounter fighters."

The couple chatted on and on before quietly returning to their room.

Meanwhile, in the small room where she lies on her side.

Lu Daosheng's eyes widened.

Despite his extremely poor physical condition, he was able to hear his parents' conversation in the living room clearly thanks to his mental fortitude.

"Apprentice, scholar, secret weapon..."

"It sounds like two extraordinary paths? Zhang Youwei should be an apprentice, practicing that secret martial art, and becoming a fighter after completing his life transformation."

"As for scholars?"

He thought of 'spirit'.

If I'm not mistaken, apprentices develop the body, while scholars develop the mind?

After scholars, is it priests?

The ice flow within the necklace continued unabated.

The attribute points section in the panel has changed slightly.

[Attribute Points: 0.01]

"It rose by 0.01 in a few hours, still 0.08 short."

"At this rate, as long as the ice flow continues, we should be able to collect enough attribute points in two or three days..."

…………

The next day.

on Monday.

Class 3, Grade 5, Donghai No. 4 Primary School.

I just arrived at the classroom.

"Lu Daosheng, Lu Daosheng, haven't you done your homework again?"

My deskmate smiled shyly, "Here, you can copy mine... Have you had breakfast yet?"

Lu Daosheng looked helplessly at the little girl named Li Qiuhua beside him.

Li Qiuhua, true to her name, is like a delicate little flower in late autumn. She is almost 1.5 meters tall, much taller than me, and has a pretty face. Although she is youthful and energetic, she also has a touch of the "Lin Daiyu" (a character from a Chinese folktale) about her.

She was considered the "class beauty".

Although there is no such thing as a "class beauty" or "school beauty" in the school.

"If I don't cheat, the teacher won't scold me."

"what!"

Li Qiuhua whispered:

"If you really don't want to write it, I'll write it for you... Give me the test paper!"

Lu Daosheng sighed again:

"No......"

What Mom and Dad said last night wasn't entirely wrong; I am indeed quite withdrawn in class and don't have many friends.

But it wasn't because I was isolated or bullied at school...

Yes, he isolated the whole class.

"No, you have to write it!" Li Qiuhua said angrily, pulling several test papers from Lu Daosheng's schoolbag:

"You haven't touched a single word?!"

Her little face scrunched up as she painstakingly copied the text, leaving Lu Daosheng feeling helpless once again.

The girl is pretty, so why is she developing into a simp?

He shook his head.

Although people often reminisce about their childhood as they grow up, and lament, "I long to buy osmanthus blossoms and share wine, but it will never be like the carefree days of my youth,"

But if we were to go back to our childhood, the situation would be completely different.

Lu Daosheng had nothing in common with his peers, and the recreational activities that fifth-graders enjoyed held no appeal for him.

Interacting with people his own age always gave Lu Daosheng the feeling of coaxing children.

For example, right now.

"Lu Daosheng!" The chubby boy at the back of the table poked him with his pen.

Turning around, Lu Daosheng saw the chubby boy's indignant expression:

"How can you be so lazy? You even need Li Qiuhua to copy for you!"

As he spoke, the chubby boy took a bite of bread and grumbled:

"Li Qiuhua helped you copy, and you still look unhappy..."

Lu Daosheng had a toothache, so he snatched the bread from the chubby boy's hand and shoved it into his mouth.

"Eat your bread!"

He turned around dejectedly.

This kind of thing happens quite often.

First in age, handsome, with a gloomy, aloof, and indifferent demeanor... his charm is off the charts, especially in the last two years, as elementary school students have gradually become more intelligent.

Lu Daosheng has received no fewer than ten love letters.

Kids don't know anything about love!

Fortunately, this world doesn't have short videos or anything like that, and the internet isn't that developed, so these kids aren't precocious...

Lu Daosheng sighed again, put his hand in his pocket, gripped the necklace, and silently felt the icy current.

The attribute points increased by 0.01, and after investing them all into mental strength, the mental strength value has reached 1.93.

Only 0.07 left.

Soon.

"Ring ring!"

The school bell rang, and Li Qiuhua nervously looked up at the teacher who was walking into the classroom:

"Lu Daosheng, you're done! You didn't finish copying..."

She turned her head and paused, stunned.

The boy had fallen fast asleep on the table at some point.
