Chapter 7 Accepting Reality

"Lin Yan, awakening failed!"

As the great elder's voice sounded, Lin Yan knew that he had to get off the formation.

However, in the end he pressed his palm on the Awakening Stone without giving up.

Still no movement.

Not to mention any light coming out, he didn't feel the "real" energy in his body move at all.

Coming off the platform, Lin Yan couldn't accept it.

When the strengthening system is turned on, so many elixirs pass through one's body, doesn't it leave any "true" energy behind?

This is too confusing!

If you can't awaken, why don't you just play with a hammer!

In any case, he really failed to awaken, and the status attributes on the character panel have changed.

[Character Panel]

Host: Lin Yan

Age:15

Status: Awakening failed

Equipment: Fish scale sword (low-grade spiritual weapon)

Kung Fu: None



The system concluded that he failed to awaken!

Is this really hopeless?

No one discussed or cared about Lin Yan's failure in awakening.

This is a normal thing. If he awakens successfully, it would be abnormal.

Returning to where he was standing before, Lin Yan was still thinking about what the problem was.

Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be!

Lin Qing glanced at him, but ultimately did not come towards him.

Next, the remaining disciples came on stage one after another to awaken, but there was only one result: failure, failure, failure.

The ceremony continued until noon, and all 373 disciples had awakened. Among them, 61 disciples had succeeded in awakening, and 312 disciples had failed to awaken.

This data is quite good.

The worst generation of the Lin family, 500 disciples participated in the awakening ceremony, but only about 30 people succeeded in awakening in the end.

After the awakening ceremony is over, those disciples who have successfully awakened can go to the family Kung Fu Pavilion and choose a Kung Fu to practice.

Disciples who failed to awaken will continue to go to Fangshi tomorrow to look after the shop and contribute to family resources, revenue, etc.

On the way back, Lin Yan lowered his head, and Yu Yun on the side comforted him: "Son, don't be sad. Even if the awakening fails, we can still compare with those people in other aspects."

Lin Xiao also nodded and said: "Yes, resources and money are also very important. Those awakened disciples cannot become stronger by relying on the resources and money we earn."

All right!

Those who fail to awaken will eventually have to earn resources and money to provide for those who succeed in awakening.

It’s really unreasonable!

"Master, what are you talking about?" Yu Yun said dissatisfied.

"Son, don't listen to your father's nonsense. Being able to earn resources and money is also a kind of ability. If you do it well, you can still become a master." Yu Yun patted Lin Yan's shoulder and said.

Lin Xiao wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Yu Yun's look.

At this time, Lin Yan also raised his head and showed a smile: "Mom and dad, you don't have to worry about me, I'm fine."

Hearing Lin Yan's words, both of them had a happy smile on their faces. However, Lin Yan's next words made their smiles freeze instantly.

Lin Yan said: "Nothing is absolute. Failure in awakening does not mean that I will not be able to practice in the future. I believe that awakening is definitely not the only way to practice."

Lin Xiao and Yu Yun looked at each other and saw a hint of worry in each other's eyes.

Lin Yan is very obsessed with the failure of awakening!

The family of three returned to Qingmei Garden. Because Lin Qing's family had moved away, the already deserted courtyard seemed even more deserted.

The maid Xiaowan had already prepared lunch. Lin Yan had no appetite and went back to his room. Lin Xiao and Yu Yun didn't eat either.

"Boom!"

There was a knock on the door.

Lin Yan put away the fish scale sword and stood up to open the door.

"father!"

Standing outside the door was Lin Xiao.

"Can I talk to you?"

Lin Xiao obviously came to comfort him, but Lin Yan didn't want to listen to his nagging.

Because this cheap old man really doesn't know how to comfort people.

"Dad, I'm fine. I just have to go out for something. Do you want to talk to you before I come back?" Lin Yan said, closing the door and preparing to run away.

Seeing this, Lin Xiao said, "Okay, let's go out to play and relax." After saying that, Lin Xiao took out his money bag, took out ten taels of silver and handed it to Lin Yan.

Lin Yan was not polite, took the silver, said: "Thank you, dad!" and then ran out quickly.

"This kid, doesn't he look like he was hit?" Lin Xiao looked at Lin Yan's back and couldn't help but muttered.

Those ten taels of silver were his own pocket money!



After leaving the Lin family mansion and heading north along the main road of Luoye Town, Lin Yan's destination was naturally the blacksmith shop in front of the sycamore forest in the northeast corner of the town.

Half an hour later, Lin Yan appeared in front of the blacksmith shop.

In addition to Lin Yan, there was also an old farmer from a small town who came to make agricultural tools.

"clang!"

"clang!"



The dull and powerful knocking sound was very rhythmic and kept ringing in his ears. Lin Yan stood aside and waited patiently.

After the old farmer left, Lin Yan stepped forward, took out his money bag from his arms, poured out twenty taels of silver, and said, "I want to forge a set of armor. This is the deposit."

The middle-aged man put down the hammer in his hand, glanced at Lin Yan, and said casually: "Today is the awakening ceremony of your Lin family. If you haven't awakened, what's the use of forging armor?"

"Forehead!"

Did the uncle notice at a glance that he was not awake yet?

This uncle is extraordinary!

"Can't I forge armor without awakening? I use it for self-defense," Lin Yan said stubbornly.

"Okay, the armor I forge is usually a medium-grade mortal weapon, and the price is two hundred taels of silver." The blacksmith uncle quoted a price.

Lin Yan was a little surprised. The price was on the high side, but it was still a fixed price.

"Can it be cheaper?" Lin Yan tried to ask.

"No!" The blacksmith uncle refused.

"Okay! I want it. I'll pick it up in three days."

After the blacksmith uncle measured his height, Lin Yan asked again: "Can you help me get some fine iron, graphite steel and other materials?"

The blacksmith uncle glanced at Lin Yan curiously and said, "Yes, I can also get mithril. Do you want it?"

Lin Yan's eyes lit up, this was a complete surprise!

He immediately said: "Yes, as long as the price is not higher than about 20% higher than the market price, I can accept it."

"Okay, in three days, bring one thousand two hundred taels of silver when you pick up the armor." The blacksmith uncle quoted a price.

After thinking for a while, Lin Yan felt that it was still acceptable, so he agreed.

Leaving the blacksmith shop and returning the same way, Lin Yan kept thinking about how to earn silver.

If you rely on commission from sales, you will definitely not be able to raise one thousand taels of silver in three days.

"It seems that there is only one way."

Lin Yan made up his mind and turned towards the drug store in the small town.

In the storage space, there are nine "Puiyuan Pills", which are valuable. Each pill is sold at 210 taels in the Lin Family Pill Pavilion.

On the way, Lin Yan bought a black cloak and dressed it up a little.

There are three drug stores in the town, and the one far away from the Lin family's mansion is called Danqing Pavilion.

In addition to selling elixirs, Danqing Pavilion also purchases medicinal materials and finished elixirs.

Lin Yan came to Danqinge Pharmacy and waited for a while. There were not many people in the pharmacy before he walked in.

He went directly to the counter where he bought finished elixirs and took out a bottle of "Peiyuan Pill" from his sleeves. Lin Yan lowered his voice and said, "What price can you give for Peiyuan Pill?"

The person in charge of purchasing in front of the counter was an old man with a white beard. He picked up the medicine bottle, poured out one pill, sniffed it, and said, "The quality is pretty good. I'll give you one hundred and thirty taels of silver for each pill."

"One hundred and thirty taels?" Lin Yan frowned, the price is too low!

"I have nine "Peiyuan Pills", can I add some more?" Lin Yan asked.

"Oh!" The old man was surprised for a moment, and then he muttered: "I'll give you twenty taels more! One hundred and fifty taels each."

Although the price is still low, it is acceptable.

After taking out the nine "Peiyuan Pills", the old man verified them and took out an ingot of one hundred taels of gold and four hundred taels of loose silver. The transaction was completed.

After collecting the money, Lin Yan also breathed a sigh of relief.

The process went quite smoothly, and the issue of the silver was resolved, just three days later.
