The old man was very happy.

(Brain storage, throw away the brain and no worries.)

In a classroom near the window in Stoney Brook City, Stoney Brook No. 3 High School, a boy with a slightly dark complexion was supporting his chin with one hand. He was Huo Ling, and now he was looking at the messy classroom bored.

Now it is the third year of high school, and the students who have just started school are still in the holiday syndrome, and have no awareness that school has started.

"What did you do during the holiday? You got so tanned?"

After playing with other classmates for a while, the deskmate returned to his seat and looked at Huo Ling, and asked in surprise.

"I went to move bricks..."

Huo Ling's family was not well off. His parents were ordinary factory workers. He had two younger brothers. It was difficult for his parents to support a family of five with their meager wages.

During the holidays, Huo Ling, who was already in his third year of high school, found a construction site to do odd jobs to earn some money to supplement the family income.

"Really moving bricks?!"

"Otherwise, look at my developed muscles."

As he said that, Huo Ling pulled up the clothes on his arms and bent his arms to show the results of his holiday of moving bricks. His muscles bulged with force.

"Awesome!"

The deskmate touched Huo Ling's muscles and couldn't help but envy him.

"Do you know where I went during the holidays?"

Then, the deskmate whispered.

"What did you do?"

Huo Ling leaned on the table behind him, relaxed his body, squinted his eyes slightly, and asked lazily.

As soon as the deskmate stuck out his butt, Huo Ling knew whether he was going to fart or poop.

Now it was obvious that he was ready to show off. If Huo Ling didn't listen to the end, this kid would feel as uncomfortable as constipation after holding it in for three days.

"My father enrolled me in a wilderness survival class. After a month of training, I feel that I am a lot stronger now!"

The deskmate grinned, full of pride in his words.

"Are you going to the spirit world?"

Huo Ling changed his posture, leaned against the wall, and asked teasingly with one hand supporting his head.

"Of course, when I succeed in awakening my spirit, I will be your big brother in the future and will definitely protect you!"

The deskmate waved his hand, full of vigor and vitality.

"Okay, I'll wait..."

"What about you? You have to prepare for the awakening of the spirit at the beginning of this school year. Do you want to join us?" The deskmate asked.

"As for me, it depends on the situation..."

Huo Ling replied perfunctorily with his eyes closed.

As his eyes closed, the thoughts in his mind began to diverge.

Awakening the spirit is a new term that has only appeared on Blue Star for nearly three hundred years.

More than three hundred years ago, the world was an extraordinary desert, also known as the end of the law world, where great power belongs to the collective.

But with the arrival of an accident, the world has changed dramatically.

Blue Star was captured by the spirit world!

The spirit world is an extremely vast world, where the extraordinary appears. As Blue Star gets closer and closer to the spirit world.

The extraordinary elements in the spirit world also began to lean towards Blue Star, just like water flows to lower places, and a steady stream of extraordinary elements poured into Blue Star.

Not only that, from time to time there are space cracks and plane channels, which can allow humans to go to the spirit world.

Of course, creatures in the spirit world can also go to Blue Star.

This is a change for Blue Star, but also a catastrophe. There are many extraordinary creatures in the spirit world, and it is not easy to resist them with the force of mortals on Blue Star.

Fortunately, the great will of the spirit world is full of goodwill for the arrival of a new world, and various extraordinary inheritances contained in the spirit world have also entered the blue star.

In this way, with the help of technology and the gradually rising extraordinary power, the people of Blue Star have defended their homes and began to develop the spirit world.

The awakening of the spirit was also invented by the sages at this time. Blue Star was once an extraordinary desert, and all the people here are ordinary things.

Although the extraordinary factors of the spirit world have infiltrated, it still takes a lot of time to complete the transformation of Blue Star.

Some people have discovered that after going deep into the spirit world, capturing and compressing the breath of the spirit world, bringing it back to Blue Star, and then opening it can accelerate the infection of extraordinary factors to humans.

When the extraordinary factors in humans reach a certain level, the spirit world will take the initiative to capture this person and transmit him to the spirit world.

When humans enter the spirit world, some lucky people will succeed in awakening their spirits with the help of the rich magic power of the spirit world, and their physique will change from ordinary things to extraordinary things that can be cultivated.

Only those who are captured by the spirit world can have their physiques evolved, while those who enter the spirit world through other portals will lose the chance to transform forever.

Opportunity to change metamorphosis.

This step can be said to be a leap over the dragon gate.

Once you cross it, you can be superior to others. The extraordinary can rely on cultivation to improve, warriors, knights, warlocks, mages, wizards.

There are dozens of inheritances for you to choose and practice.

The extraordinary is a world that people yearn for, and it is also an enviable class.

The world is thus divided into two worlds, one is the extraordinary, and the other is the ordinary life.

The class of ordinary life is close to solidification. As long as you don’t become extraordinary, the only thing that ordinary people in the lower class can do in their lives is to work hard and get enough food and clothing.

Work hard to have children, and look forward to your children being able to successfully awaken their spirits and become extraordinary.

…

As the classroom suddenly became quiet, Huo Ling looked up and saw that the head teacher on the podium had arrived.

He looked at the students’ mental state and nodded with satisfaction.

"Classmates, we have been together for three years, and it is finally time to say goodbye."

"This semester... is the fork in the road of everyone's destiny."

"Class monitor, come and pass out this form." The head teacher looked around the students in the classroom, looking at these young faces.

The class monitor handed out a paper form in order.

Huo Ling took a quick look: the application form for the Spiritual Enlightenment of Shixi No. 3 High School!

"Classmates, take this form home today, discuss with your parents, and fill out the form if you are willing to participate in the Spiritual Enlightenment, and hand it in to me tomorrow."

Spiritual Enlightenment is not a safe thing, and not everyone will succeed in spiritual enlightenment, so the country does not force every child to participate in spiritual enlightenment.

It has been more than 300 years since the extraordinary appeared in the world, and Blue Star has long passed the most dangerous time. Now the people of Daxia have left Blue Star, and many people have entered the spiritual world to develop and plunder.

Ordinary people who want to join this journey of wealth and fortune like the Great Voyage, or want to complete class transition, will choose to participate in spiritual enlightenment.

For the country of Daxia, there is no arrangement for the majority of civilian children to learn about the spiritual world from an early age.

Firstly, it is because of the limitation of educational resources, and secondly, the top of the pyramid is already very crowded, and there is no need for more people to climb up.

Educational resources are limited, and extraordinary resources are also limited. What Daxia needs now is nothing more than a batch of extraordinary leeks.

Therefore, the awakening of spirits will be chosen in the second semester of senior year. If you want to gamble, then come to learn the relevant knowledge of the spiritual world and finally participate in a gambling game.

If you don’t want to gamble, then honestly learn ordinary knowledge and become an ordinary grassroots screw, worker, service worker, entertainment industry, etc. on Blue Star.

And the children of powerful people often don’t need to gamble like this. They will have better education, better resources, better equipment, and even the awakening of spirits has a higher success rate.

Everything is almost doomed from the moment of birth.

So... do you want to gamble?

Huo Ling grabbed the application form in his hand. He knew that he had to gamble, even if it cost his life, he had to seize this only chance.

Otherwise, the rest of my life will be the same fate as my parents...

...

"Okay, everyone is tired from cleaning the classroom today, so let's go home early."

Hearing the bell ringing from the highest building of the school, the head teacher also announced the end of school.

All the students immediately dispersed.

Even Huo Ling did the same. He picked up his schoolbag, climbed out of the window next to him, and rushed straight to the school gate.

Although he had started school, he still had a part-time job, working as a waiter in a restaurant near his home.

The waiters in this kind of restaurant are very hard, and part-time jobs are especially hard. Not only do they have to serve dishes and clean tables, but sometimes they also have to help wash dishes.

What? You said washing dishes is too dirty and tiring, so you don't want to do it!

If you don't want to do it, you have to leave...

Huo Ling works part-time here, working from six to eleven every day, and his daily salary is twenty yuan. (For reference, the economy of ordinary people is in the 2000s.)

It's not low, but it's not high either. The main reason is that school has started, and there are not many part-time jobs he can do. This restaurant can at least provide a meal, which is very good.

Rushing into the restaurant, Huo Ling changed his clothes and started today's work.
