Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating

Chapter 49: Successful Awakening

In the attic, late in the middle of the night,

it was already peaceful and quiet outside the window. As the veil of nightfall descended, most residents had already gone to bed.

Lu Yu sat quietly, facing his son, Lu Shan, and daughter, Lu Shui.

After taking the Awakening Pill, under normal circumstances there would not be any problems. The user just needed to experience the sensation intently as the pills took effect.

However, there might be occasions when the health vitality did not flow smoothly and endanger the user. Thus, there was a need for a powerful practitioner to watch over him nearby and assist him as and when needed.

Lu Yu had already reached the pinnacle of the Great Martial Master level, so there was no need for him to look outside for help. He would personally watch over his children and render them assistance when required.

Lu Yu did not let them consume the pills immediately, but made them sit down quietly and attain inner peace in their hearts first.

When practicing martial arts, getting agitated and distressed was the greatest taboo. The best state of mind was peace and quiet in order to focus intently.

After a long while, Lu Shan and Lu Shui looked at Lu Yu and said in unison, “Dad, we are ready.”

Lu Yu nodded his head slightly. He put the 2 boxes in front of the two of them and said softly, “Take one pill each, then sit down with your eyes closed. Experience the effect intensely, don’t be afraid. With me around, nothing will go wrong.”

“All right!”

Lu Shan and Lu Shui took one Perfection-grade Awakening Pill respectively. The moment the pills entered their mouths, they dissolved instantly, and they could feel a cool refreshing sensation in their abdomen.

After that, there was a sudden strong hot sensation.

......

The two children’s expressions changed at once as they experienced the sensations deeply.

By the side, Lu Yu watched them carefully. After ascertaining that they were experiencing the normal awakening process, he allowed them to continue as he waited patiently beside them.

Before long, a specific aura emanated from Lu Shan and Lu Shui. Although it was not strong, it was nonetheless very palpable.

When Lu Yu saw that, he knew that the two had successfully achieved awakening and had become Martial Arts Warriors!

However, the two children’s awakening process had not ended. Their health vitality and strength were rapidly increasing, at a rate that was visible to the naked eye.

The Perfection-grade Awakening Pill could not only trigger the health vitality within the human body to unlock its innate strength and allow its user to become a Martial Arts Warrior, it could also raise the level of the user’s skill development.

The actual amount of increase depended on the user’s other innate talents and how much training he had done in the past.

In other words, the function of the Perfection-grade Awakening Pill was to unlock whatever benefits that had accrued from the user’s past training but did not materialize into actual increase, and allowed the full potential to bloom.

In a nutshell, all it did was to trigger the user’s hidden potential, and not provide him with extra strength out of nowhere.

After successfully achieving awakening, skills leveling up in future would be much simpler and a lot less painful. Lu Yu could put his mind at ease.

Lu Shan and Lu Shui’s awakening process lasted until dawn before gradually ending.

Lu Yu activated his senses and was able to sense that Lu Shan and Lu Shui now had the strength of a Grade 3 or 4 Martial Arts Warrior.

Judging from their auras, the level of Lu Shui’s evolution seemed a bit higher.

In terms of innate talent and diligence, Lu Shui also appeared much stronger.

After thinking over it carefully, he understood the reason for it. Lu Shan was more playful while Lu Shui was more hardworking.

At this moment, Lu Shan and Lu Shui opened their eyes, and they were filled with joy and happiness.

“Dad, I have successfully awakened! Is this the strength of a Martial Arts Warrior? I can feel the immense strength inside my body, so much so that it feels endless!” Lu Shan gushed excitedly.

Lu Shui was equally overjoyed, but she simply smiled and said, “Lu Shan, you have only reached the level of a Martial Arts Warrior. Don’t let it get to your head. Dad is already at the level of Great Martial Master. His strength is many times higher compared to your level!”

“So what if he is?” Lu Shan couldn’t care less and retorted, “That’s because Dad is powerful. Look at my school. There are not that many who can achieve successful awakening. To achieve what I have done is already a very good result, okay? Of course, it was with the help of the Perfection-grade Awakening Pill.”

As Lu Yu listened to his children, he smiled at their bickering. With a glance out of the window, he noticed that it was already daybreak.

Although he did not get any sleep the whole night, Lu Yu, at the pinnacle of the Great Martial Master level, could go without sleep for 7 days and still remain very alert and energetic, much less one night.

As for Lu Shan and Lu Shui, who had just achieved their awakening, with such a big surge of power and health vitality, as well as their excited state, they were naturally not sleepy at all.

“All right! The two of you go out and test yourselves. Have a feel of the actual effect of the awakening,” Lu Yu instructed them as he stood up.

Upon hearing Lu Yu’s words, Lu Shan and Lu Shui became very curious and wanted very badly to know just what level they had reached. They quickly got up as well.

In the early morning of the small district, there were already some residents up and about. Some were taking walks while others were doing training exercises.

Amongst them were some Martial Arts Warriors who were hard at work training and practicing.

In this age, for young people who wanted to elevate their strength and become rich and famous, the best method for success was to train up to become a powerful expert.

Even if they could not become powerful experts or increase their strengths, they would still get better treatment all around.

At the most basic level, for every increase in level a Martial Arts Warrior achieved, he would get a substantial increment in allowance from the Federation.

In the earlier award ceremony for the city, although Lu Yu’ whole family participated, no one else in this district was qualified to attend.

However, due to the award ceremony being broadcast live, everyone in the small district saw it and knew how powerful Lu Yu was by now.

The residents were all surprised by how powerful Lu Yu had become. They were all staying in the same small district and were struggling to maintain their Martial Arts Warrior level, yet Lu Yu was able to break through to the Great Martial Master level and turn into a true powerful expert.

Thereafter, though they wanted to interact more frequently with Lu Yu, even if they could not get his help to level up themselves, at the very least they could leave a good impression on him. In their minds, this would be all beneficial and nothing harmful.

However, the stature of a Great Martial Master was so imposing that they did not dare approach him. They were also quite apprehensive to go near his family on their own.

At this moment, in the training square of the small district, right beside the testing stone stood Zhang Hong and Zhang Wu. The younger man had just completed his testing on the stone.

“304 kilograms! Grade 2 Martial Arts Warrior!”

When he saw that his grandson’s strength had risen and reached Grade 2 Martial Arts Warrior level, Zhang Hong was very pleased.

With the martial arts exam just around the corner, Zhang Wu had no hope of advancing to Grade 4 Martial Arts Warrior level and therefore would not qualify for any of the top 10 martial arts universities.

Nevertheless, with the strength of a Grade 2 Martial Arts Warrior, he could still get into a fairly decent martial arts university. This in itself was a good thing.

When Zhang Wu saw that his strength had risen, he was very pleased with himself.

To be able to awaken successfully to become a Martial Arts Warrior, and still reach Grade 2 in such a short time, he was already very satisfied and content.

To reach Grade 4 of the Martial Arts Warrior and enter one of the top 10 martial arts universities was a luxury he had never coveted.

Generally speaking, in his whole academy, only a small handful could make it into the top 10 martial arts universities. It was a very difficult thing to accomplish.

Just when he was full of glee, Zhang Wu saw Lu Yu bringing 2 youths walking towards them from not far away.

Zhang Wu’s expression changed drastically and he shouted out, “Grandpa! Isn’t that Grandpa Lu? That Grandpa Lu from the award ceremony a few days ago?”

Zhang Hong looked in that direction on hearing his words. Sure enough, it was Lu Yu. His face turned pale instantly.

Half a month ago, at the test center, he had offended Lu Yu.

At that time, Lu Yu had already been tested to have reached the level of an Intermediate Martial Master.

Back then, Zhang Hong was already very surprised, and thought that there must be something wrong with the testing equipment.

He could not have imagined that in just half a month, Lu Yu would reach the level of a Great Martial Master, much less go on to make an enormous contribution in the battle where the Fearsome Beasts attacked the city and become a famous personality.

Zhang Hong hurriedly lowered his head and presented a humble, servile attitude towards the approaching Lu Yu, praying hard that Lu Yu would not cause any problems for him.

With the strength of a Great Martial Master. Lu Yu could easily kill him, let alone cause him problems.
