3 Opportunity For Advancemen (1/2)
”Flux energy, do I really have the hope of awakening the flux energy?”
Signs of tears appeared in his eye at this moment.
Without flux energy, he would have forever remained an ordinary, inferior person. His future generations would also remain ordinary and the cycle would continue. Every commoner wanted to break free from this cycle, but the chances of being able to succeed were almost zero.
However, it wasn’t like there were absolutely no chances. For every one thousand people, if there were two or three who managed to awaken flux energy, it would have already been considered as a very high percentage and a great fortune.
Apart from this, if one has immense wealth or manages to get the assistance of someone influential, then that person could obtain a dimensional crystal, which was priced extremely high, and use its power to try to awaken flux energy. However, if the awakening fails, then the cycle of inferiority would continue again.
Only those, whose previous generations or parents have awakened the formidable flux energy, were the truly fortunate ones, the proud sons and daughters of heaven. They were the only ones who enjoyed the strongest innate bloodline genes carrying flux energy and so it was easiest for them to awaken it. Although this was a great benefit, it had no relation to Li Yunmu, not even a speck of relation.
Because both his parents as well as his previous generations were all ordinary people. Fortunately, the heavens were not unjust and didn't caused them to rot in the lowest rung of society feeling hopelessness and despair. Since the higher dimensional force was present everywhere in the world, everyone was born with a flux energy seed within their body.
As long as they experience some miracle or their family possesses sufficient wealth, then there was a faint chance of being able to change their fate and provide hope to their family’s descendants. And now, Li Yunmu had the opportunity to cash in on that chance.
He had only gained 1 experience point and the result was that the threshold of awakening was shaken, but since it was only 1 experience point, the threshold was loosened a little and he hasn’t awakened completely yet. Presently, he could only loosen the threshold by that much, but what if he obtained even more experience points, what happens then?
10 points, 100 points....
While Li Yunmu was getting more and more excited, from outside his room, the sound of his mom’s voice penetrated into the room:
”You brat, the meal is on the table, what time do you think it already is and you still have the mood to play games.”
”Coming coming.”
Li Yunmu excitedly replied, agreeing in a loud voice; not long after, within a comfortable small dining hall, the table was filled with three meat and two vegetable dishes and one soup.
”So sumptuous? What’s the occasion today?”
Li Yunmu didn’t wash his hand before quickly grabbing a sweet and sour pork chop and shoved it in his mouth. He loudly said in unclear voice:
”So good, so good.”
Three meat and two vegetable dishes, this was quite normal in families that were wealthy, but normally, ordinary families didn’t dare to be so extravagant. Although in the dimensional age the land under human’s control was much greater compared to the dark ages, in the countryside areas, vast stretches of land were still occupied by variation beasts and dimensional beasts.
Thus, such a sumptuous evening meal would have cost at least 30 Fourth-Dimensional coins. At the slums, this amount was sufficient for the poor people to survive for a whole month; even in an ordinary household, three meat and two vegetable dishes were still considered quite extravagant.
”Naturally it is a happy occasion. Just now, your father sent a news that a few days ago, he was formally appointed as the camp captain when the camp isn’t moving.”
His mom, He Jie, said unable to contain her happiness.
”Good news, this is really great news.”
Li Yunmu’s brows rose because of excitement, great news was coming in wave after wave. Today was simply the most fortunate day of his life.
Until today, his father had been the deputy in the squad, but now, after being promoted, he would be a person with real, genuine authority. Although he cannot be compared to a government official, but within the army, he would have great authority.
”Good, but let’s not speak of your dad’s matter for now. The important thing is your exams which happened a few days ago, how did they go?”
He Jie wasn’t that easy to deal with, changing the subject, she inquired about his high school exams from a few days ago.
”Hey, mom, can’t we leave this disappointing matter for another time, it’s not like you don’t know how your son would perform, yet you still ask how it went, why not just let nature take its course.”
Li Yunmu’s mood dampened after hearing about his exams, he didn’t want to talk about the matters of exams as he didn’t expect anything from them.
In this new age, an ordinary person has three routes that they could take.
