Ch. 2 - Iron Will

Liu Qingfeng was stunned and looked at the person who spoke.

When he found out it was Yu Sheng, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

The kid, in his eyes, was very outstanding. He never complained about how tired he was from his training.

He had very high resilience.

It's just that his temper was a bit strange. Although he looked like an easy-going person, he was like a hedgehog in his heart, it was hard to get into his heart, and was naturally wary of everyone.

These were actually fine by Liu Qingfeng. The only thing that gave him headaches was...

Yu Sheng's mouth.

It's not that it was poisonous, but occasionally he would say something that could always accurately poke his weakness.

"Okay, take a break."

"Relax your mind and don't think about those messy things."

Liu Qingfeng quickly and skillfully changed the topic.

But after waiting for eighteen years, how could someone really calm down at this time when the test was approaching.

Even Yu Sheng looked out the window with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Finally...

The broadcast announced that all the third year senior students should gather in the awakening room.

Three sophisticated instruments were placed in three awakening rooms respectively.

Several teachers stood next to the instruments.

The students were divided into three long queues outside the door, waiting for their own awakening test.

The principal stood on a high platform not far away, looking at all the students with some emotion: "Every time I see these children awake, I feel very emotional. In a blink of an eye, it has been the fifth generation. Back then, when we fought in the Demon Suppression Pass..."

"Principal, you are also in the fifth generation."

A middle-aged woman wearing glasses and a wrinkle-free women's suit corrected him rigorously.

The sudden reminder made the principal stiffen, but he soon regained his breezy demeanor.

He just didn't have any interest in talking anymore.

...

"Class 6, Liu Yuxuan. Four-patterned egg."

A boy who looked a little weak stood next to the instrument, and a phantom appeared behind him.

It was a black egg.

There were four golden patterns on the egg, which were slightly glowing.

The boy was obviously excited!

In this small city with a small population, there are naturally few talents.

Having four patterns is already very difficult.

At least... if you operate properly, you can enter the Security Bureau and become a security guard. You can live comfortably for the rest of your life if you don't have anything to do with prostitution.

After the aura revived.

The beasts got a huge boost, but the human race also awakened their abilities.

At the beginning of awakening, an egg would appear behind them. The patterns on the egg determined their aptitude.

They are 1-9 patterns respectively.

At this stage, they are called interns.

They have no abilities themselves, but their physical fitness will be enhanced to a certain extent.

Absorbing the energy of the demon beast's primordial crystal, it will hatch in about a few months.

What hatches determines the future development path.

For example, Tiger as a strength system. Sword as a strong attack system. Sunflower as a healing system.

In short, there are all kinds of things.

In this egg, you can think of what is inside of it but different when it hatched.

One by one students tested their aptitude in an orderly manner. Some cried and some laughed.

Obviously...

Most people are not very satisfied with their results.

"I think I can awaken a nine-patterned egg."

"When it hatches into a phoenix, one of the four divine beasts, riding it in the sky will definitely be awesome."

In front of Yu Sheng, a student with a full face of pockmarks said excitedly with expectation.

"Yeah yeah, I feel like I can hatch one of the four divine beasts too. Then we'll form a divine beast demon hunting team!"

The two obviously fell into fantasy.

It's just...

Yu Sheng kindly popularized it: "Among the four divine beasts, there is one called Xuanwu. Commonly known as God Turtle..."

...

The two people who were fantasizing stiffened for a moment.

"And if you hatch a phoenix, riding on it and flying as well, will the bird be cooked..."

"God Turtle No Bird Team?"

Yu Sheng seemed to be seriously thinking about this question.

The two people lost their interest in talking at once.

Soon, it was their turn to take the aptitude test.

They walked forward bravely and arrogantly, and did not forget to look back at Yu Sheng with contempt.

As if at this moment, they had awakened nine patterns and became the top existence in the world.

...

"Zhang San, two-patterned egg."

"Li Si, two-patterned egg."

The teacher's cold voice next to the instrument brought them back to reality.

They turned around and left dejectedly, and no longer had any illusions about life.

Finally...

"Yu Sheng!"

Hearing his name, Yu Sheng sighed slightly, controlling his emotional fluctuations and walked towards the awakening room.

Until there was a sound...

'Beep--Beep!'

The security door flashed red so harsh in this empty square.

"Yu Sheng, did you bring metal items?"

Liu Qingfeng saw this scene and frowned. He came from a distance and asked Yu Sheng.

"Yes."

Yu Sheng nodded naturally, "You always have to bring some weapons for self-defense when you go out."

Weapons… self-defense?

The classmates behind him were a little dazed and looked at each other.

The city where humans live is relatively safe, at least ordinary people don't need to bring weapons when they go out.

Either nothing happens, or something happens and you die with weapons.

"Take it out. The awakening instrument is very expensive. Metal items will affect the test results."

Liu Qingfeng looked at his student deeply and explained.

Yu Sheng nodded, then...

The daggers tied to both arms including the legs.

The steel nails in the coat pocket.

It was hidden in the coat interlayer, but as long as you shake it, you can shoot out like fine needles.

Items were placed on the table one by one by Yu Sheng.

There was silence all around.

'This…'

'Is he still human?'

After doing a series of actions, Yu Sheng entered the door again.

'Beep--Beep!'

The sound rang again.

Everyone's somewhat dull eyes fell on Yu Sheng again.

They are all students. Even in this era, they may experience more. But at the age of seventeen or eighteen, how many people would go out with so many weapons?

Either you don't have an accident, or you could die with a weapon.

"Anything else?"

Liu Qingfeng frowned and asked.

Yu Sheng pondered for two seconds, "Maybe... it's my iron-like will?"

Everyone got confused.

Liu Qingfeng was silent for a while. He looked at Yu Sheng and said weakly, "Take them all out!!!"

"Oh."

Yu Sheng nodded, he hesitated a bit and finally took off his coat. He fiddled with something on his back through his shirt and took off a small crossbow.

This was tied to his back. The switch was connected to a thin rope. The other end of the rope ran along his arm and was next to Yu Sheng's hand.

In other words, if Yu Sheng suddenly lowered his head and pulled the rope...

Even Liu Qingfeng, an old soldier who had fought in Shanhaiguan for several years, subconsciously looked at Yu Sheng twice.

It needs to be at least an old soldier for several years to save up all of these things.

Fortunately, the instrument didn't ring again this time.

Yu Sheng walked in with a bitter face under everyone's shocked eyes.

Everything...

One third of his cards were exposed.
