Chapter 94: Wiping Out Ignorance

  "Sure enough!" Looking at the water ball in He Dong's hand, Chu Qian excitedly said "I knew it, someone who can drink three cups upside down is definitely not ordinary!"

  "This is Extrasensory Power? I'd rather call it magic, water system magic!" He Dong said with a smile.

  "Do you think this is it? Every magician in our family has their own cultivation method. If this is magic, do you have a cultivation method?" Chu Xian said with a glance at He Dong.

  "What cultivation method? What kind of cultivation method?" He Dong's spirit was suddenly shaken when he heard Chu Qing's words, and the four words "cultivation method" directly stimulated his soul.

  "It seems you still don't understand the ability well enough! Alright, today I'll give you a free lesson!" Seeing He Dong's expression, Chu Qing couldn't help but laugh again.

  "Sister? Calling you that won't make me afraid of making you older?" After admitting to being an ability user in front of Chu Qing, He Dong didn't know why he felt a bit closer to her and spoke more casually.

  "Do you really want me to grow old?" Chu Xian looked at He Dong with a hint of resentment.

  "Cough cough! Chu Qian, let's start class!" He Dong said hastily, feeling uncomfortable under Chu Qian's gaze.

  "Abnormals actually encompass a wide range, all people with special abilities are called abnormals, such as our country's ancient warriors, Japan's ninjas, America's gene warriors, and people like us who have awakened to abnormal powers are all called abnormals." As soon as she mentioned the main topic, Chu Qing's expression immediately turned serious.

  "Does our country really have ancient warriors? And are those ninjas and gene warriors real?" Chu Xi's words made He Dong extremely surprised, shocked that he didn't know this world had so many secrets, delighted that his horizons were broadening.

  "Yes. However, among all the ability users, only our Awakeners' power enhancement is the most difficult!" Chu Qing said.

  "What's this again?" He Dong asked in puzzlement.

  "Like the ancient warriors and ninjas, those with special abilities all have their own training methods. Even gene warriors can enhance their strength by injecting high-level gene agents. Only we awakened ones don't have any training methods or medicines to use, our only way is to rely on our innate talents and accumulate over time!" Chu Qing said somewhat indignantly.

  "What about one's own talent and accumulation of time?" He Dong was somewhat perplexed.

  "We, the Awakened, are a special kind of ability user. It's possible that as soon as you awaken, you'll become an A-level or S-level master, but it's also possible that you'll be an E-level ability user, the lowest level. This mainly depends on the awakened person's innate talent. After awakening, because there is no way to increase one's strength, the awakened can only rely on the passage of time to accumulate their own strength, which leads to extremely slow growth. Many people are still at the E-level even when they die." Chuying explained to He Dong.

  "It's actually like this, but I think it's also very normal. For ancient warriors and ninjas with special abilities, they probably started training from a young age, and I guess not everyone who trains will achieve success. Some may train for decades and only be slightly stronger than ordinary people. As for gene warriors, I estimate that there is also a significant risk to life when injecting gene medicine. On the other hand, Awakeners, regardless of gender or age, even if it's just a child still drinking milk, as long as they awaken their special abilities, they can become an Awakener and a master. This should be much more fortunate for those who have worked hard to cultivate their powers and risked their lives. There must be gains and losses, I think this is one of the reasons why it's difficult for Awakeners to increase their strength." He Dong said, still not fully considering himself as an Awakener, speaking from a bystander's perspective.

  "Haha, you're indeed open-minded, but most awakened individuals are not willing to give up. So they've been researching ways to enhance their awakening abilities, and after who-knows-how-many years of research, they finally found some methods!" Chu Qing said, gazing at He Dong's expression.

  "Three cups down?" As expected, Chu Xian had anticipated this, and as soon as she heard about a method to enhance the Awakened's power, He Dong's eyes lit up again in an instant. However, He Dong's reaction still caught Chu Xian off guard, because his first thought was of the three cups of wine he had just drunk.

  "Yes! Some people thought of using external stimuli to stimulate the Awakened, in order to increase their strength, based on the fact that some Awakened only awaken when they encounter danger or receive some kind of stimulation. Among them, the Three Cups Down is one such method, which has a huge impact on enhancing the strength of water-based Awakened!" Chu Qing nodded and said.

  "Three Cups Turned Over is indeed a good thing. But I admire the person who came up with Three Cups Turned Over even more, that's absolutely a genius among geniuses!" He Dong exclaimed sincerely.

  "Thank you for your praise, these three cups of wine are indeed the ancestors of our Chu family! So this wine is only available in our Chu family." Chu Qing said with some pride.

  "Ah! That's really admirable!" He Dong praised again.

  "Hearing this news, don't you have any special thoughts?" Chu Xian suddenly changed her tone and asked He Dong gently.

  "What's the idea? Of course I have an idea. How much does each of these three cups cost? Give me a few dozen first!" He Dong said with feigned ignorance.

  "He Dong, let's not beat around the bush. I'd like to invite you to join our Chu family. If you agree, these three cups of wine will definitely be yours from now on!" Chu Qian finally revealed her intention.

  "Why must I join the Chu family? Can't I just buy my way in or exchange something for it? Besides, as an outsider, even if I verbally agree to it, I may not necessarily be loyal to the Chu family." He Dong asked in confusion.

  "It seems that you don't know much about the Abnormals, so I'll tell you more. When I invited you to join our Chu family, one reason was indeed to strengthen our family's power, but another reason is also to protect you!" Chu Qing said seriously.

  "Protect me?" He Dong was somewhat astonished, did an ability user's strength still need someone else's protection?

  "Abnormals are a very special group, and there are not many such people in the world. The strength of abnormals poses a significant threat to those in power in various countries, making them a factor in national instability. To eliminate this threat, almost all abnormals will either voluntarily or involuntarily join the mysterious organizations set up by each country, which are controlled by the state." Chuying explained again to He Dong.

  "Under state control?" He Dong's eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.
