The Ordinary Me is Worshipped as a Deity by the Extraordinary Them-Chapter 133 - Raising Gu

Playing the role of a savior really didn’t suit Su Li.

But once this responsibility was pushed onto Cyril or Qi, it became clear that choosing the tallest among the short wasn’t impossible.

With this mindset, after once again saving the soul of a new “bait,” Su Li said from the bottom of his heart, “So, are the students from another world either overgrown in their cerebellum or underdeveloped in their cerebrum?”

“Why do all those who want to defeat the strong from a position of weakness choose fishing as their only method?”

“Or is it that the principle of growing stronger through life-and-death trials only applies to lone wolves?”

Su Li didn’t have any aversion to saving others’ souls, but he truly couldn’t understand why fishing tactics were so prevalent.

In a large-scale trial mission involving hundreds of students, there were dozens of “baits.”

A ratio of one in ten made him wonder if those students had any strategies for defeating stronger opponents other than using bait.

“It’s not that it only applies to lone wolves, it’s... it’s...” Cyril wanted to explain the mentality of those people but ultimately got stuck, unable to describe it.

“I understand,” Su Li said with a tired smile.

“They have the desire to grow stronger safely, yet push all the dangers onto a few people.”

“They arbitrarily label those who aren’t as strong as ‘weak,’ ‘incompetent,’ and ‘deserving of such fate,’ then make the characters they look down upon do things they themselves cannot accomplish.”

“And all this is happening within the academy, which hasn’t even fully confronted adult society in this world. Those who create such distorted events are even minors.”

“Let’s leave this damned topic for now,” Su Li said after his heavy words, immediately putting them aside. “What we should be thinking about now is how to create a training program that allows students to grow stronger safely while truly experiencing the effects of trials.”

As he spoke, Su Li casually took out the notebook he had previously used to analyze monster beast information from his pocket.

Su Li turned the notebook over and opened the last page, then looked up at Cyril and said, “Eg and Lan Zhe have already given us the most suitable training method for the younger generation.”

“When actively challenging the impossible, as long as there’s someone capable of controlling the situation nearby, the safety of the trial increases dramatically, and conversely, the effectiveness of the trial also greatly improves.”

“I may not be able to guarantee control on the level of strength, but I should be able to secure crucial life-saving time.” Su Li tapped his chest.

Cyril suddenly had a revelation.

What he realized wasn’t that Su Li had come up with a new training method.

Rather, it was that Su Li was quietly using what appeared to be guidance but was actually genuine concern for him.

The first things Su Li had spoken about were various terrible realities that would make anyone roll their eyes just thinking about them.

Bringing up a positive possibility at such a moment, although Su Li’s personal safety would worry his companions, still made Cyril and Qi develop thoughts of not wanting Su Li to continue dwelling on the terrible reality.

Those who gaze into the abyss are also gazed upon by the abyss.

Prolonged mental exhaustion from dwelling on terrible realities only depletes one’s energy.

And when faced with something that might be difficult but would lead to positive development if pursued...

It was impossible to refuse.

Cyril, a foolish companion who had figured out Su Li’s methods but still couldn’t refuse, could only advise, “No matter what happens, don’t take that thing out.”

“Wealth should not be flaunted, I understand.”

After saying this, what Su Li was actually thinking about was how to quickly strengthen that group of “baits” who kept looking at him with “wet,” “pitiful,” and “timid” eyes.

“Those who consider themselves weak will never be able to introduce the most basic fair rules they desire into the world system.”

“The best revenge, in the eyes of bystanders, might be to leave the former abusers far behind, but for those involved, the best revenge will only be returning one hundredfold.”

“If you don’t want to rely on your own strength to throw those who once used you as bait into a pile of monster beasts, yet still be able to freely pull them out with your immense power, then follow your hearts and come to me.”

“After all, you are so weak, so weak that you can only seek protection from me, someone with absolutely zero elemental affinity.”

Su Li kept verbally whipping those baits.

Na’an’s final creation had profoundly made Su Li realize...

When there were enough perverts around, what one needed to do wasn’t to actively avoid them, but to make those gorillas who were obsessed with getting close to him stay away on their own.

Monster beasts below level eight wouldn’t actively attack him, and people staying within a certain range of him would easily be judged as roadside weeds by the monster beasts.

Undeniably, the [Final Creation] was indeed an absolute treasure, one of a kind in the world.

At least in anyone else’s hands other than Su Li, all they could probably think of would be how to benefit from it.

Only him, only Su Li...

He only wanted to use the final creation to keep himself away from those gorillas.

The bait army experienced far more than just mental whipping that day.

They couldn’t approach Su Li. Those who should have been protecting Su Li were seeking his protection instead. What kind of logic was that?

They couldn’t get close to Su Li. With an absolutely safe zone available, if they still couldn’t seize the opportunity to strengthen themselves, they might as well find a monster beast and willingly deliver themselves as takeout.

They couldn’t focus on Su Li, otherwise they would uncontrollably want to get close to him...

All these prohibitions—can’t approach, can’t look, can’t respond—became reasons they must fight.

Moreover, this devilish situation even formed a virtuous cycle within the bait army.

“Those who could use us as bait? How would they view Su Li?”

“If we can’t even defeat monster beasts, how can we say we can definitely protect Su Li amidst complicated human hearts?”

“I must, must grow to a level where those who treat their own kind as bait can only look up to me but never reach me, and then make them personally experience everything I’ve been through!”

After that, they went crazy.

Qi stared in disbelief at the large group of people fearlessly charging toward the monster beasts.

And the person who drove them into this frenzy, who instantly made them understand the wolf-like corporate culture, was sitting in the shade of a tree, holding a book with a cover engraved with church-like buildings, while emitting a “stay away from me” aura.

Qi didn’t dare to approach and ask Su Li what he saw in that book that made his expression so profound and dark, yet occasionally allowed a hint of a strange smile to appear at the corners of his mouth.

He went to ask Cyril.

Cyril was currently crouching on a tree, watching the bait army being trampled to near death by monster beasts.

Before any of the baits could suffer major injuries or death, Cyril had to jump from the tree into the battlefield, grab the severely injured and bring them to Su Li, and direct the lightly injured baits to give medicine to the severely injured.

With Su Li present, various medicinal herbs in the monster beast forest were essentially available for the taking.

With just basic knowledge of pharmacology, most of the students were like perpetual motion machines, constantly being refilled with energy and healing, before once again throwing themselves into battle with the monster beasts.

After crouching back on the tree, Cyril finally answered Qi, “Su Li said before that no matter how smart a brain is, it can’t remember all the details, so he chooses to record some thoughts that suddenly appear in his mind in a notebook.”

“I caught a glimpse once...”

Cyril briefly fell into a state of paralysis, his eyes fixed, his lips uncontrollably trembling slightly.

After a while, Cyril told Qi with a profound look. “I believe that book is full of indescribable, unapproachable, unthinkable things.”

Qi’s head was filled with question marks.

“Don’t investigate, don’t think about it, unless you also want to join those people,” Cyril said before Qi could ask further, pointing at those who were being chased by monster beasts, howling miserably, yet only needed to look at Su Li once, and after closing and reopening their eyes, would charge toward the monster beasts with roars.

The scene was truly insane.

No madness, no life.

The two youths couldn’t figure out how to describe this scene.

And if this scene hadn’t been created by Su Li himself, he might have commented: “This is what raising Gu is all about.”

But since he was the one who created this situation, Su Li only showed a smile to yet another student who was crying and shouting, “Teacher, I want to go home!”

He finally seemed to understand that he possessed extraordinary beauty, so when he smiled at this moment, it was filled with omnipresent enchantment.

That smile stopped just short of being sickeningly sweet, and the emotions expressed in his green pupils were somewhere between expectation and disappointment.

The next second, that wailing student stopped running toward Su Li’s position.

After firmly closing his eyes, when he opened them again, only unwavering determination remained in his eyes.

This student could even roar at the three-meter-tall, crocodile-like giant lizard standing upright. “What’s a mere level five monster beast Bone-Devouring Lizard anyway!”

Even though the current scene was one Bone-Devouring Lizard chasing dozens of students around.

It was like a person starved for three days falling into a street of delicacies. The shop owners were even enthusiastically telling the wolf-like hungry person, “Free delivery to your home, just open your mouth to eat...”

Even a Bone-Devouring Lizard without human intelligence would have to say upon seeing this scene...

This is heaven!

What was heaven for monster beasts soon became hell.

Because they couldn’t actually eat anything.

And for the students, what was already hell became even more hellish.

Many injured students, during their recovery phase, were stopped from charging back by Su Li’s light words. “You’ve worked hard, sit down and rest for a while.”

Thus, those who hadn’t yet joined the fight suddenly felt immense pressure.

Until Su Li, amidst a group of people cupping their faces and watching him read, smiled gently and said, “You’ve rested enough, now you should relieve them so they can rest too. The worry isn’t about having too little, but about unequal distribution.”

Su Li supported the spine of the book with his left palm, while his right fingertip lightly turned over a page of the notebook. It seemed that everything happening around him wasn’t enough to affect his state.

And for the onlookers....were those fingers? They were clearly magic that stirred the heartstrings!

Those on the field: Finally saved.jpg

The first thought of those off the field: He’s so kind, I love him so much.jpg

Second thought: Weaklings, you can only hold on for this long. pointing fingers.jpg

This combination of raising Gu and wolf-like corporate culture transformed this group of people who couldn’t even defeat a level five monster beast not long ago into ones who, after ten days, could face a group of over ten Bone-Devouring Lizards head-on while wearing tattered clothes that even beggars wouldn’t want.

And among them was a six-level peak Bone-Devouring Lizard leader as tall as two or three floors.

Could they win?

No one doubted this question.

The influence created by everyone mutually enchanting each other had already become... if you don’t want to disappoint Su Li, you must complete a certain task.

Like me, I don’t want to disappoint Su Li, so I have to complete a task one level higher than yours.

At this point, someone would say, then I’ll go even higher!

With this kind of strangely competitive dangerous environment, everyone’s strength increased dramatically.

At the same time, during this process, Qi, who had been specifically guided by Su Li, truly experienced how terrifying the guiding power of upper-class people could be when fully developed.

No matter how terrible the environment, phenomenon, thinking, or various devastating evil thoughts, they could all be transformed into vigorous positive development.

Although Qi felt he could never achieve in his lifetime what Su Li did—remaining calm while drinking milk (which had no effect on calcium supplementation or height growth) while being stared at intensely by dozens of people.

As expected of Su Li. Qi sincerely sighed.

After defeating the six-level peak Bone-Devouring Lizard leader.

Su Li lowered his eyebrows and softly asked everyone. “How does victory taste?”

“It’s amazing!”

“It’s beyond wonderful!”

“I never thought before that I’d have the chance to defeat a six-level peak monster beast. Even for the trials in the Beast Forest, I only had the idea that being able to return safely was victory.”

Various emotions of sighs and excitement circulated among the people.

Su Li put the notebook he had been holding away at his waist. He clapped his hands, and everyone fell silent at just this gesture. He said, “After enjoying the joy of victory in battle with monster beasts, you should now feel the pleasure of defeating your own kind.”

“Whether it’s those who used you as bait or those who once bullied you at will. Now, you should all have the ability to defeat them, right?”

“Of course!”

“Training on the edge of death at all times is enough for me to defeat those idiots who don’t even dare to approach death.”

“I now want those fools to feel what it’s like to be oppressed, controlled, and tormented by their own kind.”

Su Li clapped his hands again.

“Some things can be done, but I hope you remember, you are not the same kind of people as them, and what you want is not to become someone like them.”

Su Li had no intention of letting the upward development brought by competitive culture become self-destruction among peers.

As for whether this advice would work...

The successive promises that followed not only proved this point.

But also proved...

“I think I went too far,” Su Li held his forehead.
