Lin Fan felt that he wasn’t tired at all. Instead, he was full of energy. He immediately opened up the system page to check.

Strength: First-grade, Five-star (1105/1358) (+)
Skills: Basic Sword Techniques Level 0 (0/10) (+), Basic Saber Techniques Level 2 (52/60) (+)

Star Power Points: 0
He hadn’t noticed it before, but with one look, he realized that his strength, speed, and spiritual power had increased by two points each. It was twice as much as when he had opened each of his three acupoints before.
It was no wonder he was in such a good state and brimming with energy.
The upper limit of his star power value had reached 1358. Before breaking through, his upper limit was 888, increasing by 470. In total, he had consumed 1011 star power points, which meant that he had consumed an additional 541 star power points during the process of opening the acupoint.
After some calculation, Lin Fan felt like he couldn’t breathe anymore.
What kind of concept was that!
To put it into numbers, that was 54,100 yuan!
‘F*ck!’
Lin Fan felt as though he was about to split apart!
He did not expect that the fourth acupoint would cost so much money. Compared to the previous ones, it was on a completely different level. The third acupoint only cost 10,000 yuan, but this time, it was four times more!
After opening a Yunmen Acupoint, he had spent a total of 1011 star power points, roughly equivalent to 100,000 yuan.
He vaguely felt the Yunmen Acupoint was emitting golden light. It was the aura of money.
He looked at the huge numeral 0 at the Star Power Points tab!
Lin Fan returned to his state from before. Other than the four thousand yuan in his bank card, he had completely used up the hundred thousand yuan that Duan Chuan had sponsored, and the ten drops of demon blood essence that Guo Zhen had sent over.
This was not cultivation, but swallowing money!
How could the poor afford to cultivate!
At this moment, Lin Fan didn’t have the slightest bit of joy from opening another acupoint. He dragged his extremely energetic body to take a shower, then washed the pots and bowls. Lying on the bed and thinking about the next Yunmen Acupoint on his left shoulder, he felt a little sad.
Where could he get so much money from!?
Soon, Lin Fan fell asleep!
In his dream, this night, he dreamed that he was tied to Han Miaotong’s bed. Han Miaotong was holding a lit candle and a leather whip full of thorns as she approached him with a bright smile. She said, “You’ve finally fallen into my hands.”
Then, Lin Fan was startled awake!
The dream was too terrifying!
He immediately turned over on the bed!
He then went back to sleep to see if he could continue the dream. Not because he was looking forward to it, but because he wanted to see if he could hold it together in the dream and if he could tide through such an ordeal in reality.
…
Cosmic calendar, Year 298, July 13, 8 in the morning.
On the third day after awakening, Lin Fan was already a First-grade Five-star Awakened Being. It was a joyous thing for him to increase by four minor realms in just three days. However, on this day, Lin Fan seemed to be in low spirits.
Even so, Lin Fan didn’t forget to eat his breakfast.
Just as Lin Fan was thinking about money…
Buzz ~
His phone suddenly rang. Lin Fan picked it up and when he saw who it was, his eyes lit up. He answered the call enthusiastically and shouted in surprise, “Brother Chuan, come over and have a seat in my house!”
On the other end of the phone, Duan Chuan was also stunned. This was too enthusiastic. He asked in confusion, “How did you know?”
Lin Fan was delighted. Was Duan Chuan planning to lend him his leftover money?
He would definitely repay Duan Chuan in the future.
A teacher for a day, a father for life!
Duan Chuan was truly a good teacher and a good brother!
He was the beacon in his life, the beacon that lit his way.
Lin Fan was extremely touched.
Lin Fan immediately replied, “I know, I know.”
“You’re pretty well-informed, kid.”
Duan Chuan scolded him jokingly, “If you know, then come quickly. Be in school by 9 am. Alright, that’s it.” As he spoke, he hung up.
‘???’
Lin Fan was stunned!
What the heck?
Go to school?
He suddenly realized that his preconceived notions seemed to have taken precedence. After all, his mind was filled with thoughts of money. He thought that Duan Chuan was here to give him money again.
But now, it was obvious that it wasn’t the case.
Their conversation was not on the same channel.
Lin Fan smiled bitterly. It made sense. He had gone too far. He had actually set his sights on Duan Chuan’s little leftover money. He really wasn’t a good person. Duan Chuan had already helped him enough. One shouldn’t be too greedy.
But no matter what, it should be good news.
Lin Fan packed up and went to school. As for the good news, he would know when he got there.
“Mmm, it’s best if they could distribute some money,” Lin Fan fantasized. He was so poor that he only wanted to earn money.
As soon as he got off the bus, he heard someone calling his name.
Guo Zhen ran over happily from the school gate. “Brother Fan, you’re here!”
“Yeah, I’m here.”
Lin Fan asked, “Oh right, what’s the school doing today? The distribution of graduation certificates was never this early in the past years.”
Guo Zhen was puzzled. “Didn’t Brother Chuan tell you? It’s the distribution of the school’s scholarship. The top ten students who had excelled in both the written exams and awakening are all awarded scholarships. They’re giving us bonuses this time!”
As he spoke, Guo Zhen’s face was filled with excitement. He had never received a scholarship since he was young. This was the first time.
Lin Fan’s eyes lit up. So the school was indeed distributing money!
He liked this!
He lacked money the most!
“Let’s go! You should have said so earlier!”
Lin Fan immediately took big strides towards the school.
He thought to himself, ‘It would be best if I could get a few hundred thousand dollars.’
“He he!”
Guo Zhen followed quickly and said happily, “Brother Fan, I didn’t look for you to play for the past two days because I have already broken through to become a First-grade Two-star Awakened Being. Furthermore, I have stabilized my node. In another two days, I will be able to reach First-grade Three-star if I work hard.”
“Impressive!” Lin Fan’s face was full of admiration as he gave a thumbs up.
Guo Zhen was elated. “Hahaha ~ It’s just so-so. Oh right, Brother Fan, have you broken through to become a First-grade Three-star? I might have caught up with you.”
Even his father praised his cultivation talent!
Even though Lin Fan’s initial star power value was high, his cultivation speed might not be that fast!
“I’m a First-grade Five-star now.”
Lin Fan casually said before asking, “Oh right, why did you come to school? Didn’t you say the scholarships are meant for those in the top ten?”
“Brother Fan, although my awakened talent lied in close combat, my initial star power value after awakening was 93, second only to you in the entire school. Even the school belle Han is not as good as me. Although my results in the written exams were not good, the awakening portion has a larger proportion of the overall results! Therefore, I’m also in the top ten,” Guo Zhen immediately explained in an aggrieved manner.
He was not bad. He was ranked second in his awakening and ranked eighth overall.
Although there were a lot of people who had awakened close combat talents, there were very few who had such high initial star power value.
Suddenly, Guo Zhen was stunned!
He seemed to have heard Lin Fan say something before he asked this question.
Guo Zhen suddenly grabbed Lin Fan and asked, “Brother Fan, did you just say that you are a First-grade Three-star?” As he spoke, he blinked his small eyes as if he was a little surprised.
Lin Fan turned around and looked at him. “I said I am a First-grade Five-star.”
This sentence was not really insulting, but it brought much hurt to Guo Zhen!
