Chapter 1 - The Class Awakening Ceremony Begins

Xihai City's No.1 High School, at the sports field, there are several class users setting up a formation.

Third year students of Xihai City's No.1 High School will undergo class awakening today.

More than 100 third year students, sitting still and upright, are listening to Principal Lu Yun's speech.

"Dear students, after three years of studying, you have learned and mastered the theoretical knowledge regarding class users."

"Today is the day you awaken your class, as well as the day that will determine your future."

"I will spare you the pleasantries and empty words. I hope you can reach Su Qianxing's level and become pillars of humanity."

Su Qianxing, a former student of No. 1 High School, awakened the class Holy Mage. At present, he is a level 80 big shot.

Lu Yun often talks about him to inspire the students.

Lin Moyu looked at the not yet complete class awakening formation on the sports field, a smidge of graveness and anticipation in his eyes.

Having walked this earth for years, Lin Moyu knows what kind of world this is.

This world is a combination of reality and game, where students awaken a class during their third year of high school.

Where EXP [1] can be obtained by clearing dungeons, exploring secret realms, joining battlefields, or killing mobs in the wild.

To raise levels, upgrade skills, and enhance strength.

And fight monsters and create living space for humanity.

Countless brave men and women shed blood, sweat, and tears and sacrificed their lives to achieve the current status quo.

At present, class awakening has a success rate of 100%. Only the question of the quality of classes remains.

The most popular classes are naturally combat classes, followed by support classes and then livelihood classes.

But this is just a rough classification. Although combat classes are popular, it doesn't mean that support and livelihood classes are necessarily inferior.

Powerful support classes are also coveted. Whether it's clearing dungeons, raiding secret realms, or joining frontline battlefields, support classes are indispensable.

At times, a support class can be far more important than a combat class.

The same applies to livelihood classes. Class users with incredible livelihood classes are also formidable.

According to Lin Moyu's understanding, whether a class is amazing or not isn't directly correlated with its classification.

There are garbage combat classes and incredible support classes.

As a beam of light rose into the sky, the class awakening formation was finally completed.

Lu Yun waved his hand and said, "Follow me!"

He took the more than 100 students to the sports field.

As he followed the crowd, Lin Moyu wondered what class he will awaken.

There's no way to tell what class one will awaken.

Some mediocre individuals will awaken powerful combat classes.

Conversely, some outstanding individuals will awaken livelihood classes.

Although he and Xia Xue are known as the two most outstanding geniuses of their school. However, prior to entering the formation, it is unknown whether the class they will awaken is any good.

At this time, Lin Moyu felt a pat on the shoulder.

Gao Yang walked over and asked, a smile on his face, "What class would you like to awaken?"

Lin Moyu looked at the other party and shook his head, not diving an answer.

Gao Yang carried on with a smile, "You can tell me, it's alright. I, for one, want to awaken as a Knight. As you can see, I have the makings of a Knight. By then, I will be able to protect girls."

His physique is indeed quite suitable for the Knight class.

However, it is not easy to awaken a combat class.

As far as Lin Moyu can tell, there's only a 10% chance that one will awaken a combat class.

As such, of the more than 100 students, no more than 15 individuals will be able to awaken a combat class.

While Gao Yang prattled on, Lin Moyu only listened quietly, a faint smile on his face.

Lin Moyu is a quiet and reserved person. Although his grades are good, but he doesn't have many friends.

Many think that there's something wrong with him.

After he was done speaking, Gao Yang went to talk to someone else.

Someone pulled Gao Yang by the arm, "What are you doing talking to the mute? He won't answer you anyway."

"That's right. He just has better grades. It's nothing impressive."

"Who knows what class he will awaken. Maybe it will be a livelihood class."

Lin Moyu isn't too popular among his peers. In fact, many think that he is cold and arrogant.

That he is looking down on others because of his good grades.

Gao Yang smiled and said, "Actually, Moyu just doesn't like talking."

It's a pity, but no one believed this.

Lin Moyu didn't explain himself; there's no need for it.

When the crowd reached the formation, Lu Yun walked up to an old man and said respectfully, "I'm sorry to have troubled you, Master Zhang."

Master Zhang shook his head, "It's fine."

Master Zhang didn't hide his information.

[Zhang Qian, level 52, Formation Great Master.]

Lin Moyu was startled. Formation Great Master, level 52 to boot.

Formation Great Master is a superior class, a superior support class, in fact, and it is rare.

Formation Great Masters are very popular on the battlefield. Once they set up a formation, anyone who enters the area will die.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lu Yun and Zhang Qian walked back to the formation.

Lu Yun took out a list and looked at the students, "The students whose name I call out are to enter the class awakening formation."

"You have been taught everything you need. Don't be nervous and just relax."

"Xu Da, go up!"

Xu Da responded and walked into the class awakening formation, feeling nervous.

The formation started with a rumble. Along with a burst of brilliant light, Xu Da's class awakening concluded.

[Livelihood class: Farmer]

Xu Da's face turned slightly pale. Who would have thought he would become a Farmer.

"Xu Da has become a Farmer."

"Farmer is still okay. If it is upgraded to Great Farmer or even Sacred Farmer, it will be a pretty good class."

"Mhm. Among livelihood classes, Farmer isn't half bad."

[1] - EXP, short for experience

After Xu Da exited the formation, his friends comforted him.

"Zhang Li!"

When he heard his name, Zhang Li trotted into the formation.

The same brilliant light shone.

[Livelihood class: Chef.]

Zhang Li was quite satisfied with his class, "My dad is a Chef. Who would have thought I would become a Chef, as well. I'm basically following my father's footsteps."

"Hang Wen."

"Niu Da."

One after another, students awakened their classes, with most being livelihood classes.

There were occasionally support classes. As for combat classes, they were even fewer.

As more and more students awakened their classes, Lu Yun's countenance became unsightly.

Zhang Qian stood next to Lu Yun. As the one who set up the class awakening formation, he was quite clear about its situation.

"This year's students are average."

Upon hearing Zhang Qian's words, Lu Yun sighed, "Indeed. There hasn't been a single superior class until now."

Zhang Qian sneered, "Superior class? It's been years since a superior class has emerged from your school. If an advanced combat class emerged, that would already be good enough."

Lu Yun smiled, "Yes. In the whole Xihai City, only one or two superior classes will emerge every year. I was expecting too much."

"Xia Xue!"

Lu Yun called another name.

Xia Xue responded.

Before heading out, Xia Xue glanced at Lin Moyu, a shade of provocation in her eyes.

She and Lin Moyu are known as the two most outstanding geniuses of their school.

However, in terms of grades, Lin Moyu has always been ahead of Xia Xue, relegating her to second place.

All this time, Xia Xue has been nursing a grudge in her heart, refusing to give up and admit defeat.

Lin Moyu turned a blind eye to Xia Xue's provocation, as if he hadn't seen anything, and continued to maintain a calm appearance.

"Humph. I will show you who the true genius is."

As if a proud swan, Xia Xue walked into the class awakening formation with confident stride."

Zhang Qian, who had his eyes closed until now, suddenly opened his eyes and gazed at Xia Xue, "This girl isn't bad."

Lu Yun was stunned, "Why do you say that, Master Zhang."

"Her spirit force is more than twice as high as that of an ordinary person. She may be able to awaken a Mage class.

Mage!

Lu Yun suddenly became spirited.

Mage is an advanced combat class. There hasn't been an advanced combat class so far this year.

And if it's some special Mage class, then it may even be a superior class.

The formation started, and brilliant light shone.

Within the light, two huge fireballs suddenly rose, then explode like fireworks.

Lu Yun trembled in agitation, "A vision. It's a superior class."

Visions represent superior classes.

[Superior combat class: Elemental Mage]

At this time, Lu Yun's is extremely excited. Moments ago, he said that superior class was expecting too much.

It's as if he made a wish upon a star, and the wish came true.

"Wow, Xia Xue is awesome. She actually awakened a superior combat class."

"Elemental Mage. That's pretty amazing. It is said that its offensive power is rather scary when its level is raised."

"That's right. When it comes to a city like Xihai City, a high-level Elemental Mage can wipe it out with a forbidden spell."

"As expected of a genius."

Xia Xue exited the formation, filled with excitement.

Zhang Qian said especially, "Young girl, you're pretty good."

At this moment, Lu Yun grinned from ear to ear, feeling extremely happy.

Xia Xue respectfully saluted Zhang Qian, "Thank you for your praise, senior."

After Xia Xue returned, a group of students gathered around her, pestering her with questions.

Superior combat classes are really rare.

Classes are not only classified, but are also graded.

Except for livelihood class, which aren't graded.

Combat and support classes can be divided into five grades, namely elementary, intermediate, advanced, superior, and legendary.

Legendary classes are almost never seen. In the entire Shenxia Empire, a legendary class may appear once in a decade.

There are relatively many individuals with superior classes. Even if it's a city like Xihai City, it may produce one or two every year.

The current Xia Xue and Su Qianxing, whom Lu Yun often mentions, are individuals with superior combat classes.

"Lin Moyu!"

Lin Moyu heard his name and headed toward the formation.

Xia Xue looked at Lin Moyu, her eyes filled with a hue of challenge.

Lu Yun asked, "Master Zhang, what do you think of this child?"

Zhang Qian glanced at Lin Moyu and said, "Apart from being particularly calm, there's nothing special about him."

Lu Yun noted, "Our school has two geniuses. Xia Xue is ranked second, while he is ranked first.

Zhang Qian said lightly, "Academic performance and class awakening are not necessarily connected. This is something you should know."

Lu Yun naturally knows this. However, he is still expectant.

If there were another superior class...

That would be completely broken.

The formation started and released brilliant light.

The bright sky suddenly darkened. In the blink of an eye, dark clouds filled the sky.

Cold wind blew in from all directions, causing a sharp drop in temperature.

Day turned into night, as if the end of the world were nigh.

"What's with this wind?"

"The sky is filled with dark clouds."

"On the weather forecast, it didn't say it was going to rain. The wind is so cold."

Lu Yun uttered in surprise, "What's going on?"

Zhang Qian stared at the formation and said calmly, "It's a vision!"

Class awakening vision!

Lu Yun almost cried out in surprise. Such a large class awakening vision is unprecedented.

Then, he was startled. With such a large vision, it would be unreasonable not to get a superior class.

However, a question remains -- will it be a combat or a support class?

"No way! I won't lose to you!"

Xia Xue clenched her fists. This vision is much grander than the one she triggered.

On an emotional level, she refused to admit defeat. But judging by the scope of the vision, there's no way but to accept it.

Suddenly, a student shouted, "Look, there's something in the dark clouds."

Everyone looked up.

Specks of firelight rose in the dark clouds.

The firelight floated in the air.

In addition to the firelight, there seems to be something else.

Moreover, clattering sound, which is grating to the ears, transmitted from the dark clouds.

A student with sharp eyes finally saw clearly what was inside the dark clouds, then plopped with his butt on the ground, filled with fear.

"Skeletons, there are skeletons in the clouds."

Following his words, the things in the dark clouds were fully exposed. There are tens of thousands of skeletons, and the firelight is the soul fire in their skulls.

The skeletons glisten with eerie white light, looking ferocious and scary.

Although they know it is just a vision, but many students still backed away, scared.

One of the soul fires fell from the sky and landed on Lin Moyu.

Then, the vision disappeared. Everything returned to normal in an instant.

[Unique hidden class: Necromancer]

It's not a superior class.

But a hidden class.

Furthermore, it's a unique hidden class.

This signifies that only one individual in the entire world can possess this class.

Unless Lin Moyu dies, a second individual with this class will never appear.

Hidden classes are rarer than superior classes, and even rarer than legendary classes.

However, when it comes to hidden classes, it is unknown whether they will be formidable or not, but they will certainly be few and far between.

Lin Moyu is the only one in the world with the Necromancer class.

"To actually awakened a hidden class, Lin Moyu is awesome. And it's a unique hidden class to boot."

"How come the mute's luck is so good? Is there something wrong with the formation?"

"Hidden classes are not necessarily exceptional. There have been many people whose hidden classes were lacking."

"Right. Hidden classes are merely rare, but not necessarily amazing."

"But the vision was terrifying. Furthermore, his class is called Necromancer. Will he have to deal with the dead from now one?"

"He doesn't talk to begin with, which is right up the alley of the dead."

After his class was awakened, Lin Moyu left the formation.

The unique hidden class made him agitated. But from his facial expression, it is impossible to tell how he feels.

Keeping a stiff upper lip has its advantages.

"Wait a moment." When he was passing by Zhang Qian, the other suddenly stopped him.

Lin Moyu turned and saluted Zhang Qian, "Senior, what can I do for you?"

He knows how to speak, but just isn't too fond of it.

His manners aren't lacking, either.

Zhang Qian asked, "You have awakened a hidden class; one that I have never seen before. Can you show me a skill of yours?"

Lin Moyu didn't refuse Zhang Qian's request.

"Please wait a moment."

Since he just awakened his class, he isn't fully familiar with it.

He checked his attributes.

[Name: Lin Moyu]

[Class: Necromancer (unique)]

[Level: 1 (0.00%)]

[Strength: 10]

[Agility: 10]

[Spirit: 20]

[Physique: 10]

[Equipment: none]

[Summon space: 0/10]

[Skills: Soul Blaze (level 1), Summon Skeletal Warrior (level 1)]

[Soul Blaze (level 1): deals damage to target's soul; its power depends on your spirit force and the skill's level.]

[Summon Skeletal Warrior (level 1): summons an Iron Skeletal Warrior (can be divided into iron, bronze, silver, gold, diamond, legendary, and godly ranks).]

In terms of attributes, his spirit force is higher than the rest.

This is a characteristic of the Necromancer class, which classifies it as a Mage-type class.

The skill Soul Blaze also indicates as much.

The skill Summon Skeletal Warrior seems to have some relation with the Summoner class.

Soul Blaze isn't suitable for display, so Lin Moyu chose to display Summon Skeletal Warrior instead.

When the skill was activated, a black vortex appeared next to Lin Moyu.

Then, a Skeletal Warrior burning with soul fire emerged from the vortex.

In an instant, his spirit attribute dropped from 20 to 10.

This is an Iron Skeletal Warrior, and it is composed of gray bones.

There are cracks all over its body, and even the blade in its hand is worn out and full of cracks.

Both the blade and the Skeletal Warrior look like they came from a garbage dump.

The Iron Skeletal Warrior looks weak, as if it will fall apart at any time.

Lin Moyu check the attributes of the Skeletal Warrior.

[Iron Skeletal Warrior]

[Strength: 15]

[Agility: 15]

[Spirit: 15]

[Physique: 15]

[Skills: none]

Its four attributes are balanced.

It currently has no skills and thus can only use regular attacks.

It is nothing special.

When the Skeletal Warrior appeared, the students let out screams of surprise and took a few steps back.

Humans harbor fear toward scary things.

Only a few brave individuals remained in place.

Gao Yang, on the contrary, surged with curiosity.

Zhang Qian's fingertip emitted a beam, and a light wind blew against the Skeletal Warrior.

The eyes of the Skeletal Warrior suddenly emitted red light. It looked at Zhang Qian, and its soul fire throbbed violently.

[The Skeletal Warrior was attacked. Should it counterattack? (If no choice is made within ten seconds, it will automatically counterattack.)]

A notification suddenly popped up in Lin Moyu's mind. He promptly ordered the Skeletal Warrior to stay still.

Zhang Qian smiled and said, "Quite alert, are we?"
