Yang City No. 1 High School, Jiangnan Province, Huaxia.
Inside Classroom 2, Senior Year 3.
“Classmates, tomorrow is the day of Job Awakening. Are you all ready?”
Teacher Wu stood on the podium, looking at the young students below, and said with passion.
The students were flushed with excitement, as if they had been injected with a stimulant.
“Teacher, we’re ready.”
“I definitely want to awaken as a Warrior,” a chubby boy said, clenching his fist.
“Warrior? Does your family own a mine? If you don’t have a mine and still want to awaken as a Warrior, you’ll end up with trash equipment and skills in dungeons, barely scratching the monsters. No one will want you, and you won’t even be able to find a job.”
“Hahaha, exactly. Warriors need to spend a lot of money. If your family doesn’t own a mine, don’t even think about it. Just awaken as a support Professional. For example, I plan to awaken as a Healer. The requirements for equipment and skills aren’t high, and even commoners can develop well.”
The chubby boy lowered his head slightly upon hearing the discussions around him.
Indeed, Warrior is the top Professional in many people’s hearts, but the requirements are too high.
If your family owns a mine, awakening as a Warrior can eventually make you the strongest damage-dealing Professional.
But if your family doesn’t own a mine, awakening as a Warrior makes you worse than a dog.
To put it bluntly, Warrior is a pay-to-win Professional.
Whether you can spend money, and how much, determines the Warrior’s Upper limit .
Hearing the discussions below, Teacher Wu smiled and said, “Classmates, although what you said makes sense, Warriors don’t only have a future if you spend money.”
As soon as she said this, the room fell silent, and everyone pricked up their ears.
At this moment, Teacher Wu suddenly looked at a young man in the corner of the classroom, a flicker of disappointment in her eyes: “Chu Fan, why don’t you tell everyone about it?”
Numerous gazes instantly fell upon him, filled with pity, mockery, and sympathy.
Chu Fan had fair skin and delicate features, and his slightly upturned lips made him look a bit roguishly handsome.
However, the black cloth wrapped around his eyes ruined his high Appearance .
The students began to whisper.
“Tch, a blind man, with no future. I don’t know why Teacher Wu values him so much and always likes to call on him to answer questions.”
“What do you know? Teacher Wu is beautiful and kind-hearted. She knows Chu Fan has no future, so she uses this method to encourage him.”
“Alas, it’s such a pity. His eyes are blind at such a young age. What’s the use of having a belly full of theoretical knowledge in this world?”
“They say Chu Fan’s eyes became like this because he couldn’t bear the fact that he was dumped by a goddess, so he blinded himself.”
“Heh, he’s truly a devoted lover, but in the end, no one will pity him. And that goddess has become a genius at Yang City No. 1 High School. The two of them are no longer in the same world.”
“……”
Chu Fan stood by his seat, his ears twitching slightly.
Since losing his eyesight, his hearing had become exceptionally sensitive.
He heard every word of his classmates’ whispers.
However, his heart remained unmoved.
To him, these classmates were just seventeen or eighteen-year-old children.
He, on the other hand, had lived two lives.
In his previous life, he had also lived for over twenty years.
Since transmigrating to this world called Blue Star two years ago, he discovered it was a world overrun by Otherworld Beasts.
From elementary school to high school, everyone’s main subjects were Chinese, history, and geography, while other subjects like math and physics were electives, with very low scores in the college entrance examination.
Of course, students from other countries also needed to learn Chinese, simply because Chinese had become the international common language.
These were all called theoretical courses.
In addition, physical training classes also accounted for a large part of the curriculum.
Everyone needed to strengthen their training to prepare for Job Awakening at eighteen!
People could awaken at eighteen years old.
Those who successfully awakened would leap over the dragon’s gate and become Professionals.
Those who failed to awaken could only be ordinary people, living at the bottom of this world.
Therefore, everyone wanted to become stronger!
Awaken successfully, become stronger, contend with Otherworld Beasts, then become even stronger, and contend with the Otherworld.
Otherworld Beasts all came from the Otherworld.
And the Otherworld!
No one knew where it was or where it led.
History books said that the Otherworld appeared three hundred years ago, and with it came the Otherworld Rift.
There was more than one Otherworld Rift, appearing all over the world.
Countless Otherworld Beasts entered Blue Star from the Otherworld Rift, becoming a nightmare for Blue Star’s inhabitants.
Perhaps when Heaven closes a door for humanity, it also opens a window.
After the Otherworld Beasts appeared.
Blue Star’s inhabitants also mutated.
Everyone had the opportunity to awaken into various powerful Professionals.
This was how humanity had defended its homeland for nearly three hundred years.
But everyone knew that humanity’s greatest crisis was not the Otherworld Beasts, but what lay beyond the Otherworld Rift.
If the rift continued to grow, no one knew what might emerge from it.
In these two years, Chu Fan had learned a lot of information from history and geography books, and naturally knew all of this.
As for his blindness, Chu Fan would never forget it.
Everything was thanks to his ex-girlfriend.
Su Muwan!
The favored daughter of Yang City No. 1 High School.
After arriving here, Chu Fan, in order to quickly understand this unfamiliar world and gain a foothold, not only self-studied all the courses within three months.
He also found many extracurricular books online and took many notes.
His accumulation from his previous life, coupled with such hard work, allowed him to consistently hold the first place in the school’s theoretical exams.
Coupled with his outstanding looks, he attracted a large number of fangirls, and many girls actively pursued him.
Ultimately, he chose Su Muwan.
But unexpectedly, one day a year ago, Su Muwan suddenly produced a bag of black liquid and asked Chu Fan about its origin.
Chu Fan recognized it at a glance: it was the venom from a third-tier Otherworld Beast, the Seven-Colored Heavenly Toad’s poison sac, which had strong corrosive properties.
But unexpectedly, Su Muwan took him by surprise and actually splashed the venom into Chu Fan’s eyes.
Chu Fan would forever remember the question he asked Su Muwan after his eyes went blind.
“Why?”
“This way, you can’t compete with me for first place anymore.”
Su Muwan’s cold laughter entered Chu Fan’s ears.
Like a demon!
From then on, Chu Fan suffered endless mockery at school.
After all, everyone enjoyed seeing a genius fall from the top to the abyss.
Subsequently, a rumor spread in Yang City No. 1 High School.
Chu Fan’s blindness was all because Su Muwan broke up with him, and Chu Fan, to show his loyalty, blinded himself.
Just like those devoted lovers who prove their loyalty with death before their beloved.
Simply ridiculous!
After this rumor spread, even fewer people sympathized with him.
Except for a handful of people.
Teacher Wu was one of them.
She had originally held high hopes for Chu Fan.
After all, a Professional with outstanding theoretical knowledge had a brighter future than one with limited theoretical knowledge.
But now, Chu Fan’s future was dark.
A blind person could not possibly awaken successfully, nor could he survive in this dangerous world.
Since that incident, Chu Fan had always wanted revenge.
But Su Muwan was the only daughter of Yang City’s Su’s Group.
For an orphan like him, trying to deal with Su Muwan was undoubtedly harder than ascending to heaven.
So Chu Fan had always kept this hatred in his heart, waiting for the day of Job Awakening to arrive.
Only by awakening and becoming stronger would he have a chance to deal with Su Muwan and the Su’s Group behind her.
Memories flashed through Chu Fan’s mind like a movie.
“Chu Fan, everyone knows you have extensive theoretical knowledge. Why don’t you help everyone out?”
Teacher Wu saw Chu Fan standing there without speaking and reminded him with a smile.
Chu Fan collected his thoughts, took a deep breath, and said:
“Teacher Wu, it’s true that Warriors require a lot of financial investment, but the Warrior Professional also has subcategories.”
“The common Warrior Professional classifications are Berserker, Defense Warrior, and Greatsword Warrior.”
“The Professionals that require spending money are only Berserker and Greatsword Warrior.”
“And Defense Warrior is a support Professional.”
“So, if you want to become a Warrior but your family doesn’t own a mine, you can choose to awaken as a Defense Warrior. It’s completely fine to join some large companies after graduation.”
“Moreover, those large companies, in order to advance their dungeon progress, will first pour resources into cultivating Defense Warriors who can tank bosses. That is to say, if you choose Defense Warrior, not only do you not need to spend money, but someone will even help you spend money.”
Many students’ eyes lit up upon hearing Chu Fan’s words.
Everyone knew that Defense Warrior didn’t require spending money, but most students didn’t know that someone would even help Defense Warriors spend money.
For a moment, faint roars could be heard in the classroom.
One by one, the boys and girls clenched their fists, seemingly having made a decision.
Teacher Wu showed appreciation and smiled, “Everyone, this content isn’t in the textbooks. Chu Fan must have learned it from other extracurricular books.”
Then, she looked at Chu Fan: “What you said is correct, but you overlooked one point.”
Chu Fan smiled and nodded: “Yes, I know what Teacher Wu is going to say.”
“Most people want to choose to awaken as a Warrior because of the Warrior’s late-game damage output.”
“If you choose Defense Warrior, it means giving up flashy damage output and only being able to stand at the very front, helping teammates withstand the Otherworld Beasts’ attacks.”
As soon as he said this, many students’ heads drooped.
Indeed, everyone wanted to awaken as a Warrior to wield high-tier weapons and use dazzling skills to cut down Otherworld Beasts.
Who wants to be a meat shield at the very front?
If that’s the case, it’s better not to choose Warrior.
Teacher Wu smiled charmingly: “You only get one chance to awaken. Whether you choose Warrior or another Professional, you must think it through carefully.”
“I suggest everyone choose based on their family situation.”
“If you want to choose Warrior but your family conditions are poor, then as Chu Fan said, Defense Warrior is indeed a good choice.”
“Also, every Professional has its own advantages; Warrior is not necessarily the strongest!”
“After school today, go home and discuss it with your family before making a decision.”
The whispers resumed below.
In the back corner, several students kept egging on a boy wearing glasses.
The boy with glasses stood up and asked, “Teacher, I’m asking for a friend, if someone can’t see, can they become a Professional?”
Teacher Wu was stunned for a moment, her eyebrows furrowing: “Hu Wei, sit down. This isn’t something you should be concerned about right now. You should be concerned about what Professional you want to awaken as.”
Hu Wei sat down sheepishly.
The classmates who had encouraged him all showed expressions of regret.
“Chu Fan, you can sit too,” Teacher Wu said with a sigh.
Chu Fan sat back in his seat, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Asking for a friend?
Those classmates really wanted to see him make a fool of himself, as if belittling someone brought them pleasure.
As for whether a blind person could awaken?
If it were before, his answer would be no.
But ever since he found a post on the Dark Web through a voice control system, his answer was yes!
That post only appeared for a dozen seconds before it was banned.
Fortunately, Chu Fan was quick and recorded the voice.
The post introduced:
Besides Berserker, Defense Warrior, and Greatsword Warrior, there were also hidden Professionals for Warriors.
One of them was Asura from Hell!
