Talent Vs Hardwork

Chapter 1.2: The Diligent Will Be Rewarded



After placing the rabbit at home, he didn’t even have time to change his clothes and hurriedly rushed to the village center.

When he arrived at the wooden house, the other children of appropriate age had already gathered. The village chief was bowing and speaking to a handsome young man.

Seeing Lin Chuan appear, the village chief quickly waved him over.

“Honorable Spirit Master, these are the three children who need to undergo the Martial Spirit Awakening this year. We trouble you once again.”

“I don’t have much time, let’s start right away.”

The young man responded indifferently and entered the wooden house first.

The village chief quickly urged the three children, including Lin Chuan, to follow.

“Children, my name is Su Yuntao, and I will be your guide. I will help each of you awaken your martial spirit. There’s no need to be afraid.”

‘Afraid?’

“Lone Wolf, possess!”

As Lin Chuan’s thoughts wandered, Su Yuntao had already released his martial spirit.

Su Yuntao muscles bulged, his gray hair grew longer, and ten gleaming claws emerged from his finger, furthermore, his eyes glowed a ghostly green. Su Yuntao had transformed into a werewolf, with one white and one yellow spirit ring floating behind him.

“Cool…”

Lin Chuan couldn’t help but mutter.

Su Yuntao glanced at him, then turned to reassure the other two children.

The martial spirit awakening ceremony soon began.

“Pitchfork, no spirit power. You cannot become a spirit master.”

“Blue Silver Grass, useless martial spirit, also no spirit power.”

In no time, the ceremonies for the first two children ended.

Su Yuntao’s expression was blank, as if he had expected this.

Lin Chuan took a deep breath and stepped into the center of the six black stones. Su Yuntao clapped his hands, injecting a bit of spirit power into the stones once more.

Rays of light emitted from the stones, forming a pale golden glow that enveloped Lin Chuan.

A warm feeling gradually flowed from within him.

“Raise your right hand!”

Lin Chuan instinctively raised his right hand, feeling a weight settle into it.

In his sight was a black short bow, unadorned and simple.

“Another tool martial spirit, but at least it has attack power. Let’s test your spirit power!”

Su Yuntao was slightly surprised, handing over the spirit power crystal ball.

Lin Chuan placed his hand on the crystal ball, feeling a pull as a warm current from his body flowed into it.

Instantly, the crystal ball glowed blue.

“You actually have level five spirit power!”

Su Yuntao was shocked but then overjoyed.

“Young one, would you like to join the Spirit Hall?”

“I’m not sure… Can I think about it?”

Lin Chuan shook his head slightly, appearing nervous and hesitant.

“Alright, I won’t force you.”

“If you ever wish to join the Spirit Hall, you can always find me at the Nuoding City Martial Spirit Branch.”

Su Yuntao sighed softly, feeling regretful.

But at least he hadn’t been outright rejected. There was still hope.

“Thank you, Spirit Master!”

Lin Chuan nodded, accepting the martial spirit certificate from Su Yuntao.

“What a pity.”

Before leaving, Su Yuntao couldn’t help but sigh.

Lin Chuan: “…”

Does my not joining the Spirit Hall make you that upset?

However, Lin Chuan had no time to dwell on Su Yuntao’s regret. After bidding farewell to everyone with the excuse of going home for breakfast, he ran back home.

Locking the windows and making sure no one could see inside, he shrank to the edge of his bed.
