I'm Really A Spiritual Master

Chapter 8: Special Treatment

Ascending the high platform, Lu Kong scanned the area and noticed that besides himself and Liu Weida, around thirty other classmates had also awakened.

Lu Kong is currently in his first year of high school. Among his peers, besides Liu Weida, there are only six others, all of whom are in their second and third years of high school.

Lu Kong recognized a few of them, but most were unfamiliar faces.

While Lu Kong observed the others, they were also observing him. Upon seeing Lu Kong, many nodded in acknowledgment.

Although Lu Kong was only in his first year, his consistent top ranking in the class, coupled with his handsome appearance, had earned him some fame not only among his peers in the first year but also among those in the second and third years. Clearly, they all knew who Lu Kong was.

However, no one exchanged words. Everyone stood nervously together, waiting for Mr. Lu to speak.

Mr. Lu's gaze swept across the crowd, revealing a slight smile as he began, "First of all, congratulations on successfully awakening your Psionic abilities. From now on, you will become a Psionic Wielder."

"You should also know that our Blue Moon Alliance places great emphasis on the cultivation of Psionic Wielders. Awakening at your age indicates great potential, and you will have the opportunity to enter the Psionic Academy for further training."

"I believe you are familiar with the Psionic Academy. Those who graduate from there have excellent prospects, whether they choose to join the military, the Alliance Council, or become adventurers and join an adventure guild. The future is limitless."

"Of course, in order to enter the Psionic Academy, you will need to participate in the Psionic assessment six months from now. Only those who pass will have the qualification. During this six-month period, you will be assigned to a class to prepare for the final sprint of the assessment. I hope you will work hard."

"As for Psionic training and related matters, the Education Bureau will assign Psionic Wielders to instruct you. You don't need to worry about that."

"Do any of you have any questions?"

Mr. Lu's gaze swept across the crowd.

The crowd looked at each other and then shook their heads.

After all, they were all just fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys and girls. While awakening their Psionic abilities had made them excited and happy, they were still uncertain about the future.

For Lu Kong, he also had no questions. After all, Luo Ying had gone through all of this as well, so it would be more convenient for him to ask Luo Ying if he had any questions.

Seeing that no one had any questions, Mr. Lu was not surprised. He then looked at Lu Kong and smiled, "Student, what is your name?"

Liu Weida and the others were all stunned, looking at Lu Kong with surprise.

Why was Mr. Lu speaking to Lu Kong alone?

Everyone here is a Psionic Wielder, so why is this guy receiving special treatment?

Many people were filled with question marks.

"My name is Lu Kong."

"Lu Kong, right? It's a good name," Mr. Lu nodded with a smile.

The crowd: "......"

What's so good about this name? It's just an ordinary name, isn't it?

"Alright, Lu Kong, please stay. The rest of you can go to your new classes," Mr. Lu said, then looked at the principal standing nearby.

The principal immediately called the head teacher over to take them to their new classes.

After all, every year, a class for Psionic Wielders would be formed after the awakening ceremony and put into use. For the school, it had become a tradition, and they had made preparations before the ceremony.

Liu Weida and the others looked at Lu Kong, who was left behind, with envy on their faces, then followed the head teacher and left.

As for the other students who had not awakened, they naturally left the field under the guidance of their homeroom teachers.

Before long, the entire field was only left with Mr. Lu and the Psionic Wielders, as well as the principal and a few school leaders.

The principal and other school leaders were also very puzzled as to why Mr. Lu and the others had chosen to keep Lu Kong. However, they didn't dare to say much.

Mr. Lu and the others surrounded Lu Kong as if they were looking at a giant panda.

Mr. Lu smiled and said, "Lu Kong, congratulations on awakening your talent."

Upon hearing this, the principal and others beside him widened their eyes, looking at Lu Kong with astonishment.

They finally understood why Mr. Lu and the others had chosen to keep Lu Kong.

He had actually awakened a talent!

After all, even among Psionic Wielders, awakening a talent was rare.

I didn't expect that their school would actually produce one?!

Just thinking about the rewards from the Ministry of Education, the principal and others immediately smiled with excitement.

It really is because of this.

Lu Kong sighed in his heart and smiled, saying, "Thank you, Lord Lu."

"I'm called Lu Da, I should be much older than you. If you don't mind, you can just call me Old Lu." Lu Da waved his hand, his attitude very gentle.

"Old Lu."

Lu Kong naturally wouldn't reject someone's goodwill.

Lu Da immediately showed a smile.

However, a middle-aged man next to them couldn't help but ask, "Lu Kong, I wonder which direction your Psionic awakening is in?"

"I awakened in the Soul Type direction."

Hearing this, Lu Da and the others' eyes lit up, and the smiles on their faces became even more obvious.

"It's actually Soul Type! Not bad, not bad. No wonder you were able to communicate with the Spirit Communication realm shortly after the awakening ceremony began. Soul Type Psionic Wielders have always had good affinity with Psionics. Congratulations, Lu Kong."

"Awakening in the Soul Type direction is a great thing. Why did your expression seem off after the awakening ceremony ended? Could it be that there was a problem with your talent?" Another middle-aged man asked.

Lu Da nodded, "If Lu Kong has any questions, you can tell us. After all, we have been Psionic Wielders for many years and our strength is decent. We should be able to provide some advice for your future development. Of course, if you don't want to say, we can understand."

After all, talent is a Psionic Wielder's trump card. How could it be easily revealed to others?

They just didn't want Lu Kong to go the wrong way because of his talent. Such a gem, if he took the wrong path, it would be a pity.

Upon hearing this, Lu Kong's mouth twitched. He thought about his talent and the issue of Psionic enhancement direction. He helplessly said, "There are indeed some problems."

Lu Da and the others exchanged glances, their expressions serious.

"What's the problem?"

"My awakened talent is in enhancing the physical body, not in enhancing the soul. It seems to be incompatible with Soul Type Psionic Wielders."

"This..." Hearing Lu Kong's words, Lu Da and the others were speechless.

Having exceptional talent and awakening in the Soul Type direction, and even awakening a talent, these were all great things. But unexpectedly, the awakened talent turned out to be in the physical system?

No wonder Lu Kong's expression wasn't good.

Generally speaking, it is best if the awakened talent can amplify the Psionic enhancement direction of oneself. Unfortunately, there is quite a gap between these two.

It's a bit of a pity...

After a moment of silence, Lu Da patted Lu Kong's shoulder and comforted him, "Although your awakened talent doesn't match Soul Type, it is still quite useful for you."

A tall middle-aged man next to him also nodded, "What Old Lu said is correct, Lu Kong. You must also know that after the cultivation of Elementalists and Soul Type Psionic Wielders reaches a certain level, the degree of physical enhancement through Psionics is far inferior to that of physical system Psionic Wielders. Although Soul Type Psionic Wielders have diverse means and strong combat power, they also have their weaknesses. If you can enhance your physical body through your talent, then your physical weaknesses will no longer exist, and your self-defense ability will greatly improve. For you, it is also a good thing."

Upon hearing this, the others also nodded.

"I still remember seven years ago, a talented Rank Six Telekineticist was assassinated by a powerful member of the Barbarian Beast Clan on the battlefield. If his physical body was stronger, the assassination would never have succeeded."

Lu Da said sincerely, "Indeed, while improving your cultivation, Lu Kong, you should also make good use of your talent to enhance your physical body and strengthen your self-defense ability."

"Yes, Lu Kong, although your talent may not be particularly suitable for you, it is not bad either. As long as you work hard, there will definitely be a place for you among the strong in the Blue Moon Alliance. Don't feel discouraged just because of a talent issue!" One of the men gave Lu Kong a thumbs up.

Lu Kong: "..."

Listening to everyone's comfort, he felt a bit strange in his heart.

If Old Lu and the others knew that his awakened talent was at the Imperishable level, would they still say the same?

Lu Kong felt speechless. The only difference was that his awakened direction and talent were different, and he never worried about his own strength.
