You press the button.
Ding.
The walls are back to their nice, normal concrete selves.
There’s an old TV set sitting on the floor. One of those giant antique things, made before colors were invented.
Go ahead, turn it on.
No, it isn’t connected to anything, There aren’t any electrical outlets in here.
You turn it on anyways.
To your mild surprise, it turns on. A horrible sound quality blairs out a Captain Crunch commercial from the 60’s.
You take a seat, watching the commercial. After that comes another commercial.
And another.
And yet another.
You start to wonder if it’ll ever get to the show.
By the time you decide that this is the All-Commercial Channel I’ve had time to finish my pizza. Thank you.
You try to change the channel.
There are only three working channels, spread out between a grand total of twelve possible channels.
The working channels all show the same thing.
After watching for half an hour, getting thoroughly bored, it shows the Captain Crunch commercial again.
Yep! This is all it is!
Realizing you’ve just wasted half an hour of your very valuable time, you become frustrated with the tv. You glare at it for a few seconds, then get up.
You carefully judge the height of the tv, positioning yourself. Then, putting all your kung-fu movie knowledge into practice, you lift your knee and kick the screen.
It shatters, sparks flying everywhere. It’s quite impressive, and would have been even more impressive if your foot hadn’t gotten stuck.
The sound quality is now exceptionally bad, and I’m laughing my ass off.
You hop in place for a few seconds, trying to dislodge your foot. It- it’s great. You look so ridiculous.
Eventually you manage to free your foot, and step closer to inspect the damage.
The screen is very broken. There’s a foot-sized hole in the middle. It’s still sparking slightly, so I’d recommend not touching it.
You aren’t harmed, though. It’s a miracle you didn’t cut yourself, what with all the glass everywhere.
You step away, pleased with yourself.
Oh if only you had a sledgehammer…

The Strongest Weapon Of The Strongest Duo
In life, there's always a person who's been born lucky and those who's been robbed of fate. Most people relied on this so-called fate.. especially since this world is all about powers and cultivation. But there's also someone who's disdaining those who rely on it, as they were born unlucky. Having no power, two children of Four Saint, live their life, prisoned in their household. Being mocked for their ordinary state... the people seem to be unaware of its great effect. "Yeah, but look at here, it says 'only need'. What do you think it means?" "Only need? Maybe we can fuse some more parts of our body with energy other than our whole body?" "But what does whole body means?" "Our flesh?" "So, to be extraordinary, one needs to become ordinary first! That's the meaning of this! Others were at a Strong Maniac state or higher already since birth, so their only body parts being fused with energy is their flesh since they don't have any chance to fuse at all! While we, ordinary, can fuse energy not only in our flesh but also in other parts that we want to. So that's the meaning of, 'Legend said that extraordinary was born from ordinary'!" Discovering such an important fact... How will the two prove their hypothesis and become the Ultimate Duo in the universe?
