332 The Dead Tablet
Lu Benwei pulled over a stool and sat down.
Then, Chu Yan handed over a list and said, âThis is the list of the prizes. Take a look first.â
Lin Feng eagerly pulled the list in front of him, his eyes quickly flipping through it.
âHoly sh*t! A full set of level 50 purple equipment! A red-grade weapon?! Thereâs even a legendary skill scroll?!â Lin Feng could not help but exclaim every prize on the list.
Zhao Xiaoqi and Gai Yue could not help but stretch their necks to watch.
âI have to say, the prizes from the National Class Tournament are really generous,â Hai Yue said.
âA full set of level 50 purple equipment is the least valuable one here.â
Lu Benwei nodded and glanced at the list. He saw the giant stone tablet on it and let out a long sigh of relief.
âAs expected, Mr. Liu didnât lie to me.â
Lu Benwei was about to speak when Lin Feng suddenly interrupted him.
âEh, why is there a line of small words here?â
Chu Yan was also quite surprised and stuck her head out. âHey, I wouldnât have noticed if you didnât mention it.â
When the others heard this, they all leaned over and read aloud, âNote: The giantâs stone tablet is a dead tablet. Champion team, please choose carefully!â
âDead tablet?â
When Lin Feng saw the item, he immediately cursed. âWhat? You have the nerve to take out a dead tablet?â
The dead tablet, as its name suggested, was a âdeadâ inheritance tablet. This kind of stone tablet either had no more inheritance power or could not obtain the inheritance. Such a situation was also known as a true dead tablet.
It was either sealed by some secret technique or it was in a deep sleep. Ordinary methods were unable to trigger the power of inheritance within it, and it was impossible to obtain the mysteries within the stone tablet.
âBut whatâs so amazing about this stone tablet that it can be on par with a red-grade weapon?â Hai Yue said indifferently as she saw the difference.
Lin Feng was very disdainful. âTsk, whatâs so great about it? Itâs just a display to occupy space. Fortunately, we saw the note. Otherwise, we wouldâve been fooled if we took the dead stone tablet.â
âI want this stone tablet,â Lu Benwei said indifferently.
âHuh?â Lin Feng, Zhao Xiaoqi, and Hai Yue all tilted their heads.
âI didnât hear wrong, did I? You want this dead tablet?â
âThis stone tablet is very important to me, I need it.â Lu Benwei nodded.
At this moment, Lin Feng and the other two were all filled with confusion. What could be so important about this giant stone tablet? Only Chu Yan knew why Lu Benwei chose the giant stone tablet.
âAre you sure? If the power of inheritance in the giantâs stone monument is used up, then it will really become a stone,â Chu Yan whispered.
Lu Benwei waved his hand. âI believe that the organizing committee wonât use a real dead tablet to fool us. The giantâs stone monument mustâve been sealed by a secret technique or it fell asleep.â
Chu Yan sighed and said lightly, âI hope so.â
After a while, Zhao Xiaoqi and the others had chosen their prizes.
Zhao Xiaoqi chose a very powerful drug that could enhance all four attributes. This potion was made by the former best alchemist in the Dragon Kingdom. In the outside world, it was a potion that had a price but no market!
Hai Yue chose an inheritance tablet, which contained the inheritance power of a heavy shield knight who was the national pillar of the Dragon Kingdom. If Hai Yue could comprehend it, it would be a huge boost to her strength.
Lin Feng chose a legendary skill that was very suitable for him. His combat strength would increase by a lot.
As for Chu Yan, she thought about it for a while and chose a full set of epic equipment.
Everyone had their doubts.
âYanyan, do you lack epic equipment?â
Chu Yan shook her head. âI donât.â
âThen why did you choose the most useless epic equipment set?â
Chu Yan shrugged. âItâs nothing. Itâs just that I donât like the things here. I might as well choose something that I can sell for a lot of money.â
Everyone broke out in a cold sweat. This reply was fierce.
âSince weâre done picking, itâs already nighttime. How about we have a meal together?â Lu Benwei stood up and suggested.
âWhy didnât you say so earlier? My flight is tonight.â Zhao Xiaoqiâs face was sullen.
âThen weâll change the flight!â Everyone laughed.
âItâs nice to say, but changing the flight will cost a lot of money!â
âIsnât this money a piece of cake for you now?â Lu Benwei smiled.
Zhao Xiaoqi clenched her fists. âBig Brother, do you think my money came from the wind?â
At this time, Chu Yan patted Zhao Xiaoqiâs shoulder. âQiqi, did you forget? We still have a cash reward.â
âWhat? Cash reward?â Zhao Xiaoqiâs eyes turned into the shape of money. âHow much?â
âEveryone gets five million gold coins!â Lu Benwei said as he stretched out his hand.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Five million gold coins were enough for them to live the rest of their lives without worry.
Zhao Xiaoqi was excited. âLetâs go! What are you waiting for? Iâll treat you to seafood tonight!â
âYou guys no need to wait for me, I have to give the list of prizes to the principal.â After a pause, Lu Benwei said, âIt might take a little longer, you guys go firstâ¦â
Everyone nodded in agreement and left.
Lu Benwei brought the list and knocked on Chen Yuanâs office door.
âPlease come in.â Chen Yuanâs voice sounded.
Lu Benwei was about to speak when Chen Yuan said, âLu Benwei, happy winter holidays.â
...
Chen Yuanâs face was filled with a hangover, and the office reeked of alcohol. Fortunately, it was already the holidays, so the school was not too busy.
Lu Benwei handed in the list of prizes and said, âMr. Principal, too much alcohol is bad for your health.â
âI know, but Iâm happy!â
Chen Yuan was dancing with joy.
âYou guys won the championship, which made me feel proud in front of the schoolâs board.â
âThe schoolâs board?â It was the first time Lu Benwei heard that one of the nine hunter universities, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Hunter universities, had a council.
âYou donât understand,â Chen Yuan laughed.
âLu Benwei, let me ask you. Do you think that all the resources you get are given to you by the country?â
âYes, I did!â
âYou donât understand.â Chen Yuan opened his eyes. âNot only do you have the support of the country, but you also have the resources and the support of your family!â
Lu Benweiâs mouth opened slightly. This news was still a little unexpected to him.
...
Chen Yuan suddenly became clear-headed and his voice became heavy. âWhen you were in school, you were nurtured by your familyâs resources. After you graduate, youâll join their company! Or join the army theyâre funding! You canât escape from their hands even if you spend your entire life!â
