Logging 10,000 Years into the Future

Chapter 38: Door-to-Door Visit

The one to enter was an old man with a head full of white hair.

Seeing the old man come in, the vice principal sitting behind his desk immediately stood up.

"Principal Ding, what brings you here?"

Zhong Zhengguo also hurriedly opened his mouth to greet him, "Hello, Principal Ding. "

The old man with the surname Ding was the principal of Baihe Third High School. Notwithstanding his position as the principal of the school, he held office in the Baihe City Education Bureau, and the Martial Arts Association, and was a powerful Level 5 Martial Artist himself. He was a person of great standing in Baihe City.

At the moment, Principal Ding, was full of sprite, and his old face full of folds almost bloomed into a beautiful flower of a smile.

"Principal, what is it that you are so happy about?"

Principal Ding's face was full of hidden joy as he explained with a harrumph, "I just received a call from President Xiao, saying that our school has a martial arts genius named Lu Sheng. Tsk, tsk, tsk, 17-year-old with a BQV of 15.7, CPI of an astounding 15, 700, meting out the standard for a Level 3 Martial Artist. If not it being President Xiao, who informed me of the matter personally, I would’ve taken such a thing to be a mere joke …  He says he is a Talented Martial Artist.”

Principal Ding rambled to himself, unaware of the expressions on the faces of the two standing in front of him.

“Principal, did you just say that the Talented Martial Artist is— What’s his name?” Zhong Zhengguo stammered and spoke.

"Lu Sheng!"

Principal Ding repeated the name, then smiled and patted Zhong Zhengguo on his shoulder approvingly. “Speaking of which, Teacher Zhong also gets a part of the credit. If I remember correctly, you led Lu Sheng’s combat class, right …?”

Lu Sheng … Blood-Qi Value of 15.7 … Combat Power Index of 15,700 … Level 3 … Talented Martial Artist …

Zhong Zhengguo felt his entire body turn lethargic, he felt woozy, and he couldn’t even stand straight. It was as if he was drunk, and as if he was living in a dream. As for the vice principal next to him, his eyes were open wide; mouth open so wide that you could stuff a teacup in it.

They were simply too shocked to even say a word.

…

Lu Sheng woke up to a sharp knock on the door, and had to end his training in the Dream World early.

"Brother … Brother, come out quick, someone is looking for you!" His sister, Lu Qinghe, shouted at the door, her tone a bit anxious.

"Got it, will be out right away," Lu Sheng answered. A thoughtful look on his face.

Lu Qinghe’s behaved quite oddly, today. Her knock was too gentle to her usual calls. She did not stick to her usual apathetic words, instead called him by his given name, which later appended with “someone is looking for you”

Lu Sheng had a guess on what it was about. He tidied his room a bit before walking out.

The Lu’s lived in a quite small house. The bathroom faced the living room, and was flanked by both Lu Qinghe and Lu Sheng’s room on both sides of the bathroom, respectively.

He ran a quick glance around the room and saw Lu Hai, Zheng Yufeng, and Lu Qinghe in the living room. Along with them, there was a man and woman sitting beside them. Strangers.

Next to the sofa were placed a pile of gifts that looked pricey from the look fo the packaging.

"Little Saint, come on!"

Seeing Lu Sheng come walk out, the bewildered Lu Hai and Zheng Yufen immediately asked him over.

Others also turned their heads towards him.

Lu Sheng a complicated look in Lu Qinghe’s, while the other two had an ingratiating smile plastered on their faces.

"Mom. Dad."  Lu Sheng calmly walked over, and Lu Qinghe quickly gave him a seat. "These two are …" Lu Sheng looked towards the man and the woman sitting on the sofa.

Zheng Yufen hurriedly introduced.

"This is President Xiao Yuhe from the Baihe City Martial Arts Association, and this is …" Zheng Yufen had a thoughtful look on her face.

Ni Shuang hastily added: "Red River Martial Arts Academy."

"Right, right!"

Zheng Yufen remembered, "Miss Ni of the Red River Martial Arts Academy."

“Student Lu Sheng can be considered our regular patron. He should be no stranger to our academy. That said, we have even met once, student Lu Sheng.” Ni Shuang smiled, exuding poise and comport when she addressed everyone.

Lu Sheng nodded.

“Hello, President Xiao. Hello, Miss Ni. I’m Lu Sheng.”

Looking at Lu Sheng’s calm face, Ni Shuang couldn’t help but secretly sigh in her heart.  How worthy of being the top genius of our Baihe City. He indeed is different!

The people outside were going hysterical when they found out about his results at the Martial Arts Association this morning, but he, the person in question, acted as if nothing had happened.

He was even sleeping in his room earlier. How able minded.

Xiao Yuhe's heart was equally full of appreciation for Lu Sheng. He had seen many geniuses, but none like Lu Sheng, calm and collected, unbothered by anything. This alone put him leagues ahead of ordinary people who didn’t know any better.

Simply put, he was an innate martial arts seedling!

“You two are here to see me because …”

Ni Shuang wisely did not say anything and conceded to Xiao Yuhe.

Although the Red River Martial Arts Academy had some reputation in Baihe City, it was far worse than Xiao Yuhe, the president of the Martial Arts Association, who was a big shot that even her father, Ni Hongchuan, had to look up to. A casual stomp from an existence such as him could make the entire Baihe City tremble thrice.*

And such a big brother, now can personally come to Lu Sheng home, nestled in a small house of less than ninety square feet.

And such a big shot had now personally come to Lu Sheng’s home. A small house less than 90 sq. meters. This showed the amount of importance he placed on Lu Sheng.

With a smile, Xiao Yuhe spoke, “I came here on official business on behalf of the Baihe City Martial Arts Association. I’ve come here to present you, Lu Sheng, with an official martial artist badge.”

Lu Sheng's eyes lit up slightly, he had gone to the Martial Arts Association today to take the test for this very purpose.

On the other hand, when Lu Hai and Zheng Yufen, the clueless couple, heard Xiao Yuhe they became confused for a moment.

Official martial artist badge?

For Lu Sheng?

What the hell?
