The Burst bullets would needed to be custom-made; not suitable for Ducke and himself too, a humble slummer with no relevant connections.

The change in design resulted to a reduction in firepower and lethality but increased its firing speed and magasine size.

There were also similar pistols and rifles in the workshop but it was seriously expensive.

After modifying the gun, Tang Ling went to a dollar store and bought paper wraps. Then returning at home, Tang Ling finished wrapping his present, ready to show Ducke his gift in 3 days.

When preparing supper, Tang Ling used the moment to ask if f.u.xi was able to awaken as an 'Orderer' and the answer was negative.

"You didn't hear the news ?" his sister questioned him, "There's practically no one who chugged the content, awakened. There's also rumours in the school that these bottles are rigged but there's no evidence."

The bottles were rigged ?

Tang Ling raised his eyebrows as he tried make sense of the situation. Although it wasn't confirmed, the bottles should have a problem. Were the bottles fake ? No. It was impossible, if so, why was he able to become an Orderer/Fluxer ? The content was definitely real but ...?

If he remembered correctly, he received a 75 % Fusion Reagent and Tang f.u.xi received a diluted version of it. Although it should be expected that many would fail, the school itself has 1500 students. Excluding him, there should be others too, by luck, able to awaken as a Fluxer, especially people of his group ! It was even stated that it was better than the rich people use to awaken with no side effects...

Um... Why was he thinking so hard about that ? He was an ordinary man in a slum, not a genius. Things wouldn't be good for him to try figuring out the minds of the elite; especially when he had so few informations. Speculations would only hurt his head without anything in returns.

'Anyway, I'm no Edward Einstein' Tang Ling thought, 'I'll know in due time, for now let's not bother with these conspiracies theories and concentrate in the present.'

Tang Ling looked his sister yawning on the sofa and smiled.

'I don't know anything about the world of Fluxers so it isn't bad that you didn't manage to awaken, avoiding to enter this unknown world because bro has nothing to protect you...'

"zzz...." Tang f.u.xi was unknowingly sleeping on the sofa.

"Cute." Tang Ling whispered as he transported her on his two arms to her bedroom.

It was time to sleep, today was a plentiful day.

[Heavenly Ascension activating...]

Tang Ling opened his eyes and saw that he was in an inn's room. He looked around and saw his sword, resting on his waist. He then looked around the window and saw an inconspicuous horse waiting and munching some hay, it was probably fed by the inn's keeper or a customer.

Knock, knock !

Tang Ling opened the door and saw Feng Cai behind it.

"It's time for breakfast, then the elder will continue his lessons." Feng Cai said with a smile.

Tang Ling nodded and thanked as he went down to get his meal with his fellow brothers and sisters. The meal consisted of strange things such as buns and dumplings with tea. It was very strange for him who normally ate bread, cereals or something out of the supermarket as breakfast but it didn't take long before he adjusted and ate heartily.

As he felt somewhat bloated , he took the cup of tea and drunk it carefully, savouring the taste. The taste was wonderful; tea existed in his world but were expensive. The only experience he had was with instant low-quality tea leaves which were given by Boss Amin who would sometimes give him expired leaves for free which he treasured greatly.

For him, these expired tea leaves were luxury drinks but this tea was made of fresh leaves which contained an earthly taste. He reckoned that if he could sell this pot of tea, he would at least get more than a thousand credits, a thousand credits may be the entire savings of lower-middle cla.s.s but people would still pay such amount for a pot of tea which could be finished in three days; such are the extravagance of the rich... But Tang Ling could understand the temptation, what is considered a fortune for some could be trash for an another. 1000 credits was dust and tea was treasure.

What a great fragrance...

"Amazing !" Tang Ling let out a praise.

The server overheard the compliment and let out a cry pf joy, boasting in the process : "The tea may be of common species, it is bred here, in this inn's garden. It is then brewed by a tea master. So of course, it's delicious !"

"A tea master ?"

"Well yeah, like you who cultivate the way of Martial, the tea master cultivate the way of tea. People in mountainous regions may not know this but there's an art and techniques to make and brew tea. It isn't just heating water and pouring over just like using a sword isn't just about slas.h.i.+ng and stabbing people. The tea is prepared by the tea master that the boss hired for a hefty sum at that." the server responded.

The elegant n.o.ble girl sitting a little on the right side remarked : "Don't underestimate tea. For tea bring enlightenment. A clear mind, ready to learn and react is an ideal state of martial art. It is by clearing impurities of the mind will one find secrets of nature and compounding into cultivation."
