I'm Really A Spiritual Master

Chapter 1: The Bet

"Lu Kong, today is the day of awakening, right? If you awaken, I'll take you to Clear Jade Pavilion for a good meal. You can order whatever you want!"

At the dining table, Luo Ying thought of something and looked at the young man beside her.

The young man had short black hair, distinct features, sharp eyebrows and eyes, and a hint of innocence on his face.

Lu Kong glanced at Luo Ying. She had long, deep red hair, cherry lips, and beautiful features. There was a touch of elegance between her brows, making her a rare beauty.

However, due to their long-term interaction, Lu Kong had become immune to such beauty. He drank a sip of soy milk expressionlessly and said, "Before you say that, can you fulfill the promise you made to wash my underwear for a month?"

"What? When did I make such a promise? You can't just make things up!" Luo Ying widened her eyes, wearing an innocent expression as if she didn't understand what he was talking about.

"Twenty-seven days ago, at four minutes past four in the afternoon. The bet was about who could make the other person laugh first... By the way, you laughed like a pig." Lu Kong heartlessly brought up Luo Ying's scar.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ying immediately protested, "You laughed like a pig! A beautiful girl wouldn't laugh like that!"

Then she looked a bit guilty and said, "Oh, that was so long ago. How do you still remember it so clearly? I would have forgotten if you didn't mention it."

"But now that you remember, will you fulfill the bet?" Lu Kong glanced at Luo Ying, who seemed a bit guilty.

"I've been busy lately. I promise I'll fulfill it after some time." Luo Ying forced a smile.

Lu Kong, unsurprisingly, withdrew his gaze. He had already gotten used to it. This guy was a sore loser and never admitted defeat.

At this moment, Luo Ying chuckled mischievously and looked at Lu Kong mysteriously. "Lu Kong, I have a surprise for you. Guess what it is."

"A surprise? What kind of surprise?" Lu Kong was puzzled.

"Guess." Luo Ying repeated.

"I won't guess." Lu Kong immediately refused.

Seeing that Lu Kong was unmoved, Luo Ying gritted her teeth, and a flame suddenly appeared in her hand. She glared at Lu Kong fiercely and said, "I'll give you a chance to rephrase your words!"

Lu Kong: "..."

Not only was this guy a sore loser, but he also liked to resort to violence!

Lu Kong made a mental note of it.

"...Clothes?"

"Hehe, no!"

"Sneakers?"

"No!"

"A game console?"

"Hahaha, no!"

Seeing Lu Kong guess wrong repeatedly, Luo Ying's expression became even more triumphant, with a smile on her face.

Lu Kong thought for a while and shook his head. "I can't guess."

"Hmph! Look at this!"

Luo Ying suddenly held a glass bottle in her hand. The bottle was the size of a palm, with a thin body like a test tube. Inside it was a deep blue liquid, which seemed to shimmer with specks of starlight, making it look very beautiful.

Lu Kong looked at the glass bottle in Luo Ying's hand, stunned for a moment, and then widened his eyes. "Is this... an awakening potion?!"

Any intelligent creature had the potential to communicate with spirits and awaken their psionic abilities, becoming a psionic wielder. Humans were no exception.

In the current era, humans were united and had established the Blue Moon Alliance, standing together to fight against many enemies on the planet Kajia and facing various threats together.

Psionic wielders played a crucial role in the Blue Moon Alliance.

Therefore, in the Blue Moon Alliance, the more psionic wielders, the better. In order to increase their numbers, the Alliance Council had put in a lot of effort.

The most direct manifestation of this was that the Blue Moon Alliance held free awakening ceremonies for ordinary people every year.

The so-called awakening ceremony requires a strong individual to communicate with the Spirit Communication realm, artificially increasing the Psionic concentration in a specific area, stimulating ordinary people to accept Psionic and undergo the process of awakening Psionic.

This ceremony is quite burdensome for the strong individuals. Even if it is charged, they may not be willing, let alone doing it for free, and it happens only once a year, reaching a large number of ordinary people.

One can imagine how much the Alliance desires Psionic Wielders.

In addition to the awakening ceremony, there are also other means to stimulate the awakening of ordinary people, and awakening potions are one of them!

Awakening potions are extremely precious and expensive, not something that everyone can afford.

Today is the day of the awakening ceremony, and Luo Ying is giving him an awakening potion, obviously prepared in advance.

This is something that Lu Kong completely did not expect.

No wonder this guy has been out of home all the time recently, claiming to be busy when asked... So it turns out to be like this?

Seeing Lu Kong's astonished expression, Luo Ying became even more proud, with a pleased expression on her face: "How about it? Are you satisfied with my surprise? I've put a lot of effort into getting this awakening potion! Here, take it."

Lu Kong nodded: "Hmm!"

He reached out and took the potion, carefully putting it away.

He didn't say thank you. Since that accident, the two of them have relied on each other for nearly ten years. They no longer need to say these things.

"Alright, let's consider this awakening potion as fulfilling the bet of washing underwear!"

"I refuse."

"Huh?! Why?? This is an awakening potion! Can't it be worth a month of underwear washing?!" Luo Ying looked incredulous and very dissatisfied.

"These two things cannot be mixed together." Seeing Luo Ying's expression of doubting life, Lu Kong's mouth slightly curved.

Seeing Luo Ying looking dejected, Lu Kong calmly said: "Then let's make another bet."

As soon as she heard the word bet, Luo Ying immediately became spirited and looked up at Lu Kong: "What are we betting on?!"

"Let's bet on whether I can awaken. If I can't awaken, then the month of underwear washing is waived."

Luo Ying's eyes lit up, and then she asked cautiously: "And if you do awaken?"

Lu Kong's mouth gradually curved up: "Then you'll wash my socks for another month."

Luo Ying: "????"

She had a devilish expression on her face: "You actually want a beauty like me to wash your stinky socks? Lu Kong, are you even human?!"

"Do you accept the bet?"

"I accept!"

Just as Lu Kong expected, Luo Ying couldn't refuse any bet and agreed quickly.

Lu Kong nodded: "Then I'll go to school."

"Go ahead, go ahead." Luo Ying waved her hand.

Lu Kong got up and walked to the door. After opening it, he turned to look at Luo Ying and said seriously: "By the way, there's one more thing."

"What is it?"

"A twenty-three-year-old woman is not a little girl." After saying that, Lu Kong quickly closed the door, and then a loud noise came from inside the room.

Thud!

Afterwards, Luo Ying's cold voice sounded from upstairs: "Lu Kong, if you have the guts, don't run!"

Lu Kong ran and jumped downstairs, and when he ran out of the building and saw that Luo Ying didn't chase after him, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He touched the awakening potion in his pocket and walked towards the outside of the residential area.
