Lin Yao regretted it, as he felt he had delayed the children’s training progress. Soon, he made up his mind to buy these the next time he earned some money.

“Children, don’t worry. Big Brother will bring you good stuff soon.

“Gaining knowledge will get you a house made of gold and a good spouse. Books can give you everything you want, so study hard.”

Before he left, Lin Yao thought bitterly about ways to advance to a martial artist within six days. After stepping out of the door, he felt that today was his lucky day. First, he’d picked up one yuan. Next, he had taught the children and gained 10 grams of energy.

It was already past nine o’clock at night when he returned home. After eating a large bowl of meat that his parents had left for him, Lin Yao did not cut back on his training just because sunlight absorption did not work that well at night.

He trained thrice. After two more hours of studying, it was finally 11 o’clock at night when he went to bed.

The next day, after a good night’s sleep, Lin Yao’s brother and sister discovered that their elder brother had woken up five minutes later than usual.

“Big brother, are you tired? Did you train too much yesterday? Why don’t you slow down today?”

Yesterday, Lin Yao had almost performed 20 rounds of military boxing, which had frightened the two young ones. Lin Yao smiled at this.

“This won’t do. Don’t worry, I’m not tired. I had a nightmare. Ha…”

After covering his mouth and yawning, Lin Yao quickly washed up and ran outside with the two young ones to train with the army of other people.

Lin Yao, who had just woken up, initially felt listless. However, as the rising sun shone on his body, he was filled with vitality. It was as if he had taken a lot of tonics.

‘It’s great. Sunlight absorption is a divine skill.’

During the run, he didn’t bump into any bad company like Zhang Heng. At the thought of Zhang Heng’s ranking in the class, Lin Yao smiled.

‘He said it’s impossible, yet he still went to the dojo for special training?’

Parks and lakes were the best places for civilians to train. Besides these places, some dojos were planted with spirit grass, spirit trees, and so on. Training at these places was several times better than training in the park. Of course, it was not free, as one had to pay to train there.

Although Zhang Heng had said repeatedly that he had no hopes, his ranking was not that weak. Despite being in tenth place, he was better than Lin Yao. Obviously, he wanted to strive to improve his ranking in the class.

“What a bunch of schemers.”

Lin Yao was merely joking. He was not really angry when he said this. This was similar to the way his classmates in the previous world would always say that they fared badly and made mistakes in the exams or were bad at their studies. This was just a form of humble behavior. There would be a problem with him if he were to feel cross over such a situation.

‘Fair-weather atheists turn to god in a pinch… If the tree-planting system has not been activated, I can only work hard before the college entrance examination.’

This was Lin Yao’s plan and the choice made by his parents. However, Lin Yao did not know that out of the 300,000 yuan, 100,000 yuan had been taken in advance for Lin Yao to train one month before the college entrance examination.

Of course, there was no use for it now.

He led the two young ones to the lakeside. Soon, Lin Yao, just like the others, started practicing 13th Military Boxing.

Because the morning sun was not that intense, it did not supply Lin Yao with adequate sunlight power. Lin Yao could not persist further after five rounds of training.

There were very few people who could persist that long. Although Lin Yao had attracted some attention, there were just some comments. People didn’t care much about it.

They were unaware that even though Lin Yao had practiced five times, unlike many others still in the field, he had not taken even a single bottle of nutrient drink during these five rounds of training. At that moment, Lin Yao was very much looking forward to discovering the effect of taking a nutrient drink in combination with sunlight absorption and knowing how fast his cultivation speed would be.

‘So long as I have nutrient drinks to accelerate my progress, I will definitely break through to become a martial artist by the end of the Spirit Energy Festival. Furthermore, I’ll be getting nutrient drinks soon.’

As he thought about this, Lin Yao’s heart was burning with enthusiasm.

After taking his siblings home with him, Lin Yao immediately washed up and went out to get the nutrient drinks.

He was about to get the nutrient drinks he had mentioned, but his parents were not the ones buying them.

His parents had borrowed money from their relatives and friends to buy nourishment products for Lin Yao after learning that Lin Yao had awakened.

Lin Yao had tried to dissuade them many times but to no avail.

He had no choice. The status of a martial artist in this world was not like the status of a university student in a peaceful society but like the status of an imperial scholar in the feudal era. A student from a key university might not be able to change their family’s social status, but an advanced scholar in the past would have been destined to become a state official.

As long as Lin Yao could become a warrior, his family’s social status would rise. His family could not help but feel concerned.

In the past, when they had been uncertain about Lin Yao’s future, they had mainly focused on having a stable life. After Lin Yao’s awakening, the family’s strategy had changed, especially when it came to any abilities that could support his training. They were willing to support Lin Yao at all costs and would not delay Lin Yao’s progress no matter what.

Lin Yao did not even need to clean his home anymore.

What left Lin Yao speechless was that his parents were not the only ones who had such thoughts. So did his grandparents. Since his grandparents had the same thoughts, they were prepared to fund Lin Yao’s nutrition drinks with their retirement savings.

‘What a sin. I can earn back the money spent from the savings at home, but borrowing money and using retirement savings is too much. Fortunately, they are only borrowing money from relatives and friends, but this can’t continue. I have to find ways to make money.’

As his head ached about persuading his parents, Lin Yao arrived at his destination, a bustling street in front of the entrance of a building in the city center.

The door was well-guarded. Policemen were guarding the place with guns, and the people entering and exiting through the door were people of a high social standing clad in expensive clothing.

Lin Yao did not cower when he arrived at this place. After looking up at the sign at the entrance of the building, he walked in.

No-one stopped him or had their nose up in the air. Many of these people even paid special attention to Lin Yao’s movements and gave him a kind smile when he glanced at them.

In response, Lin Yao smiled back and headed to his destination, a counter inside the building.

“Hello, sir, can I help you?”

The staff member behind the counter was also all smiles. Lin Yao’s eyes lit up when he saw how beautiful she looked in her formal suit.

Lin Yao’s worry disappeared when he saw everyone’s friendly attitude.

“I’m here to register my talent.”

As soon as he said this, before the beautiful civil servant behind the counter could say anything, the formally-dressed individuals in the surroundings got ready to run up to him. However, some of the armed policemen on duty who maintained the law and order stopped them.

The pretty lady behind the counter said quickly, “Register your talent? Are you sure?”

“Of course, I wouldn’t waste your time otherwise.”

“Sir, this way, please. I will notify the evaluators.”

Soon, Lin Yao was taken into a comfortable room to rest. To his surprise, he was not alone. There was already a young man sitting in the room. After a while, another person was brought in. Lin Yao was surprised.

‘Don’t they say that only one in a million have awakened talents? Now it seems that there are many such geniuses.’

Yes, the place that Lin Yao had visited to register his talent was none other than the Abnormal Ability Department of the country, also known as the Dragon Team amongst civilians. This was a place specially used for registering one’s talents.

Speaking of that, the Abnormal Ability Department was very famous. At the beginning of the Spirit Energy Revival period, the country had specially selected a large number of elites from the armed police, military, and government elite departments to form this unit. This was because they had no experience dealing with such anomalies. This was akin to the protagonist in spirit energy novels joining the country’s special forces.
