Chapter 4

Teacher Liang didn't ask if Su Chen had succeeded; firstly, it was unlucky, and secondly, he believed his student wouldn't make mistakes on such a major matter.

"The awakening was successful, the quality is Green!" Su Chen said with a smile.

The Demon Card awakened with Gatomon as the summon, although it was a Gatomon without the Holy Ring, still contained immense holy power, which was why it reached Green Grade.

Su Chen speculated that if he could craft the Holy Ring and Gold-plated Lion Claw as support Demon Cards, with the bonuses of both, Gatomon might be able to break through the Green Grade and reach Blue, or even... higher!

"Green?" Teacher Liang was ecstatic, "Great, starting off with Green, I really didn't misjudge you!"

Su Chen smiled back, thinking to himself: If you knew later that I am taking an original route, you might just want to tear my heart out!

After all, people in this world have never seen a work like Digimon.

In this world, due to long-term wars, the mental entertainment industry is almost extremely scarce!

In a world where everyone worships power and faces the constant threat of extinction from external enemies, who would pay attention to the seemingly useless entertainment industry?

Teacher Liang couldn't stop smiling, and patted Su Chen's shoulder with relief: "Awakening a Green-grade Life-Bound Card on the first try is truly good news!"

"What school did you choose? Elemental Life or Beast Battle Pet?"

Teacher Liang asked expectantly.

The surrounding students also listened in enviously.

"Neither..."

"It's fine, the Life-Bound Treasure school is also quite good, directly boosting oneself, and the self-preservation ability in the early stages is much stronger!"

"Teacher, you don't need to guess."

Su Chen shook his head and gave an answer that made Teacher Liang's heart stop, "What I awakened is an original school!"

Then, with a thought, he summoned Gatomon.

Looking at Gatomon in front of them, which had a non-threatening appearance and looked like an ordinary white cat, all the students were in an uproar.

Teacher Liang heard Su Chen's answer, and then saw this strange, non-threatening cat-shaped battle pet, as if struck by lightning, pointing at Su Chen with one finger in disbelief, unable to speak.

After a long while, Teacher Liang's low voice came again, seemingly suppressing his emotions:

"I have emphasized many times in class that the upper limit of original Demon Cards is extremely unstable!"

"Su Chen, with your talent to awaken a Green-grade Life-Bound Card, why choose the original route?"

"Teacher Liang, I have my own reasons for making this choice!" Su Chen said with a firm expression, "Please rest assured, I will definitely give my all for the cause of humanity fighting against fierce beasts, I won't joke about my own future!"

"Su Chen, you..."

Su Chen took a deep breath, having mentally prepared himself to face Teacher Liang's anger.

"... Sigh! Suit yourself then!" Teacher Liang turned around desolately and began to count the number of people.

Not having encountered the expected anger, Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at Teacher Liang's back, his heart suddenly wavered a little:

"Can fictional entertainment works from the previous world really succeed smoothly when used in this world?"

Teacher Liang finished counting the people and led the crowd toward the bus they came in, with Su Chen walking silently at the back.

In the crowd, a few sarcastic remarks were heard.

"Look at how smug he is for awakening a Green Card, those who don't know would think he's already a Ninth Tier Saint!"

"Exactly, I thought he was really something, but I didn't expect him to become a piece of trash walking the original route!"

"Hahahahaha!"

No one was optimistic about Su Chen, because for so many years, there have only been a few mainstream Demon Card Master schools.

Originality is not that easy.

Su Chen didn't refute; hearing the gossip of others, his thoughts became even firmer.

Since he has already stepped onto this path, there is no chance to retreat.

As long as he shows the potential he should have, he will naturally pierce through all doubts.

Now he only wants to go back quickly, collect materials for crafting support cards, first craft the Holy Ring, and perfect Gatomon's state.

At this moment, a sweet voice rang in Su Chen's ear.

"Classmate Su Chen, original Demon Cards are also great. Don't care about what those people think, believe in yourself!"

Su Chen looked in the direction the voice came from.

The girl had long flowing hair, slightly red cheeks, and a pair of beautiful eyes that were shy and timid.

Searching his mind, Su Chen understood; the girl in front of him was named Jiang Hanlu, Su Chen's classmate, and also the class beauty.

Moreover, Su Chen also discovered that the original body seemed to be a 'simp' for Jiang Hanlu.

Su Chen nodded with a smile, but in his heart, there was an extra hint of doubt.

It seems Jiang Hanlu has never taken the initiative to talk to him before.

What's wrong with today?
