Chapter 312: 317、Secret to Awakening (Part 1)
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
After the end of the rank conferring ceremony, Lu Shu shouldered the two spears and walked out of the school. He did not greet anyone, nor did any of his cla.s.smates have any intention of greeting him.
Some looked at the figure of Lu Shu carrying the two spears and were suddenly reminded of the scene where Lu Shu stood atop the Beimang mountains after the end of the Beimang remains. A little messed up, a little awkward…yet also a streak of daring heroism.
No one knew how could this under-performer in everyone’s mind suddenly make rise so fast.
The Heavenly Network conferred a rank of major as reward, then gave him two spears. Everyone knew Lu Shu was the best at throwing spears, news had spread across the school. However, the issue was how frightfully good the treatment. Cao Qingci was now only equipped with one standard longsword.
Someone asked just as Lu Shu walked past, “Do you…have any secret to Awakening?”
Lu Shu jumped, “Yes!”
He turned around and glanced at Liu Li. Liu Li was instantly stunned! Why look at me…the heck, stop it!
“From Liu Li’s distress, +666!”
Lu Shu smacked his lips. Despite everything that Liu Li said today, his intentions were good in persuading Lu Shu not to be a good-for-nothing. This little chap was merely spoilt at home and had a strong sense of superiority, but compared to people like Liang Che, Liu Li was not at all bad.
Looking at the small tuft of hair on Liu Li’s head, Lu Shu decided to pick the path of sustainable development. He had pulled enough out today.
“What is your secret?”
“My secret is in my Wechat moments. All of you can scroll up and see,” Lu Shu chuckled and left. Less than five minutes later, he received a few dozens friend requests. His moments could only be seen by friends. To see them, one must first be friend!
Lu Shu looked at the friend requests and accepted all!
In school, once they were accepted, people began to scroll through Lu Shu’s moments frantically, but the contents were each more of a pain in the a.s.s than the previous. They could not find anything even roughly resembling “secrets to awakening”, even though they were almost “poisoned” by the poisonous egg soup.
After some time, a person said with a complicated expression, “I may have found it.”
A large group of people hustled forth, “Let me see, what’s the secret?!”
“I saw an Awakened One yesterday. Her powers may be very useful to everyone. Now I shall pa.s.s the techniques to all of you

Ba la la energy, shaloh shaloh, little demon G.o.d! Transform!”
What is this balala little demon G.o.d, crazy!
Liu Li looked at the bunch of people with a compa.s.sionate gaze normally reserved for the mentally r.e.t.a.r.ded. All of you actually went to scroll through his moments? We have all seen this one and we have already added him into the blacklist…
Those that fell for it first looked at the rest who were tricked later, a strange sense of superiority arising within them… they were in fact hoping for the others to fall for it like themselves.
Somebody looked at the students of Cla.s.s F9 sorely, “He puts up such moments and none of you care?”
The students of F9 again looked at them with gaze reserved for the r.e.t.a.r.ded, who can care? Who here can beat him in a fight? What can we do, we feel hopeless too!
…
Lu Shu returned home and immediately placed the two spears in the living room. They belonged to him and he could take them out to use openly. If he were to keep them in the Seal of Lands, he could not simple retrieve them from thin air when needed right?
Just nice, he would see which tailor shop could he contact to make a cover for the two spears so that he could sling them on his back.
It would be impossible for him to shoulder them around every day, not quite convenient.
In two days’ time, Lu Shu had almost finished selling the smelly tofu he had. Selling from dawn to dusk, he had made over five thousand dollars.
To be honest, this way of selling things could not be compared to how he made money in the remains, but it was surely more stable.
Lu Shu was himself a person who cared a lot about sustainable development. He would feel that something was not right if he did not make money every day…
Lu Xiaoyu was watching anime on the sofa… Naruto. She had been doing so the whole day.
Lu Shu told her upon entering that watching for too long was not good. Lu Xiaoyu replied that she wanted to emulate Gaara in Naruto, to provide herself a train of thought…because Gaara’s attacks were all related to sand.
“What the…” Lu Shu felt a little sore. Lu Xiaoyu’s reasoning was indeed very right! In fact, Lu Shu was the one who went online to search for this anime and recommend to Xiaoyu!
On the path of cultivation, they both were at a certain state already. However, as to issues such as how to deal with Anthony’ soul, they still had no answer to how best to make use of it, such as what was the strongest way to attack with sand?
The moves in the animation were not subjected to real-life testing. They may not be as vicious as depicted, and most moves may not be as practical in real life.
Still, the anime could provide some thoughts. What Lu Shu meant was: explore boldly, verify cautiously.
Such as obtaining solid ores from underground to mix with sand and form protective s.h.i.+elds.
Such as turning surrounding soil and mud instantly into sand and bury the enemy under 200 meters of sand, then turn the sand into millstone to finish off the enemy.
Such as using the sand in place of one’s own sight for investigative work.
Such as using the power of sand to send oneself up into the sky.
After all the various experimentation, they could surely find the more appropriate combat moves. Lu Shu felt that the other compet.i.tors would most probably not come up with any extra effective killing moves since the rejuvenation of magical energy had only just started.
Looking at how Anthony fought that time, his moves were pretty monotonous. However, n.o.body could deny that sometimes a single move can suffice.
What Lu Shu wanted now was for Xiaoyu to find her weapon of choice which suited her best. After all, her greatest trump card now was Anthony’s soul.
However, at this rate, Lu Xiaoyu would have a legitimate reason for watching anime…Lu Shu felt as if he had taken a rock to smash his own feet. It was really because he had never had the time to watch these animations last time, and did not know such shows…can run so long! A few hundred episodes, how long would it take?!
Seeing how reasoning would not work, Lu Shu would have to wait till Lu Xiaoyu go to bed at midnight, then go to the living room stealthily to hide the television she used to watch Naruto…
Lu Shu was at this time having perfect muscle control. Barefooted, he crept from his room to the living room without a sound.
But when he unplug the power cord, all the lights in the living room came on!
It turned out that Lu Xiaoyu did not return to her room at all and was all along standing silently at the door. She looked at Lu Shu, her face devoid of emotions, “Lu Shu, you are so immature…”
Lu Shu stood there rigid. Don’t all parents do this? How is this childis.h.!.+
“Watch all you want!” Lu Shu stormed back to his room in anger. Soon after that, he poked his head out again and glared at Little Fury on Xiaoyu’s head, “Go do your homework!”
Little Fury, “???”
What has this got to do with me?!
“From Little Fury’s distress, +1+1+1…”
