Huiyue City.
Huiyue No. 2 Middle School, Awakening Plaza.
Young-faced students, one after another, lined up and, under the teachers' guidance, walked towards a high platform in the center.
Outside the plaza, the crowd surged, and the eagerly awaiting parents' eyes sparkled with anticipation.
Today is the Star Dragon Empire's annual Awakening Day.
Hundreds of third-year students from No. 2 Middle School will undergo a unified profession change.
Not only parents but even some social celebrities would come to observe the ceremony, waiting for some promising talents to emerge.
"Xu Kuncai, successful profession change, profession—Chicken Farmer!"
"Yang Shulin, successful profession change, profession—Gunfighter!"
"Zhang Liang, successful profession change, profession—Hypnotist!"
"..."
As the Profession Change Formation operated, a curtain of light enveloped the high platform, and specks of starlight fell, continuously merging into the students' bodies.
One student after another completed their profession change.
"Finally, it's Profession Change Day. Whether one is a dragon or a worm depends on how the profession awakens!"
At this moment!
Standing in the center of Class Six's line, Lin Han took a deep breath, his eyes filled with anticipation.
It had been ten years since he transmigrated to this world, and he already had a clear understanding of everything here.
This world was originally called Blue Star.
Hundreds of years ago, a game world descended and merged with reality. Not only did Blue Star's area surge a thousandfold, but the world's rules also drastically changed.
Accompanying this was an endless invasion of monsters.
With all thermal weapons rendered ineffective, humanity was forced onto a path of transcendence.
And after hundreds of years of development.
Humans developed a professional path with a 100% awakening rate.
Every Blue Star person, at the age of eighteen, would undergo a profession awakening, thereby gaining unique transcendent powers.
This world has countless instances, forbidden lands, and secret realms, and monsters run rampant.
Therefore, clearing secret realms, conquering instances, pioneering forbidden lands, hunting monsters, joining wars, etc.
All can yield a large amount of experience to raise one's profession level and learn profession skills, constantly growing stronger.
This Day of Awakening.
Lin Han had waited a full ten years for it, and he was very much looking forward to his own profession.
"Lin Han!"
"Your large physique, prepared for a Warrior profession, will finally have a use!"
His shoulder was patted, and Lin Han turned to find it was his best friend, Wang Qiang.
"Hmm!"
Lin Han nodded.
In this world.
Professions can be divided into three major categories.
The first category is combat professions, which are professions with high combat power, such as Warrior, Knight, Archer, and Mage.
The second category is lifestyle professions.
This is the largest category of professions, such as Pastry Chef, Blacksmith, and Miner.
Once awakened into this type of profession, one can only be an ordinary person for life. However, because they are closely related to daily life, many industries worth nations have emerged within lifestyle professions.
As for the third category.
These are support professions.
Such as Enchanter, Magic Item Crafter, Potion Master, and Healer.
This type of profession has the fewest people, but they cannot be underestimated. Some powerful support professions are highly sought after.
Whether it's clearing an instance, pioneering new areas, or clearing secret realms, support professions are indispensable.
Some teams clearing dungeons even.
Would rather have one less damage-dealing combatant than not have a support.
However, cultivating support professions requires massive resources. Generally, without a large family or powerful faction, it's impossible to cultivate a decent support expert.
Among the three major profession categories.
Lin Han's most anticipated was the combat profession of Warrior.
This type of profession, primarily focused on close-quarters combat, relies on its super strong vitality and considerable damage.
It can transform into a berserk fighter or become an iron-like city wall.
It is a true killing profession.
Lin Han had read a theory in a book:
Although the awakening of a profession is greatly related to one's talent, it is also influenced by a part of one's own will.
Therefore.
From the second year after transmigrating, Lin Han began an incredibly intense training regimen.
Nine years later.
He successfully transformed into a muscle fanatic.
Now, he is 2.16 meters tall, weighs 190 kilograms, possesses immense strength, and his muscles are even more exaggerated than those of the bodybuilders from his previous life.
Even.
The principal of Huiyue No. 2 Middle School once said that Lin Han was a natural Warrior profession seed.
"It's almost our class's turn to awaken!"
"Everyone, remember not to resist the pull of the formation's power. Although awakening as a combat or support profession has limitless prospects, lifestyle professions are not without potential either!"
"Did you see Xu Kuncai from Class Five? He has limitless financial prospects!"
In front of the high platform.
Wearing a professional suit, with a delicate face and a stunning figure, the class teacher Yang Xuewei endlessly encouraged the students.
And Xu Kuncai, mentioned by Yang Xuewei, came from a family whose profession for generations was Chicken Farmer.
The Xu family's "KFC" chain stores had been popular in the Star Dragon Empire for over a hundred years, attracting a large number of loyal customers.
And even before Xu Kuncai completed his profession change.
He became famous throughout the empire with a single advertising slogan, "You're Too Beautiful, Chicken," and rose to the top.
He was a prominent representative figure among lifestyle professions.
He was truly a model of profession reversal.
Yang Xuewei often used the deeds of Xu Kuncai and his family to encourage students.
At this moment!
The last student from Class Five had completed their awakening!
Class Six's teacher, Yang Xuewei, walked to the high platform and bowed to an elder responsible for activating the formation, saying:
"Director Wang, the students of Class Six are in your hands!"
The elder was the third-year grade director, named Wang Jian, a Level 60 Mage, and also a hidden profession—Weather Mage.
He could control both wind and rain magic.
Even among combat professions, he was a very strong existence.
Wang Jian smiled and said:
"Let them come up!"
Yang Xuewei took out a list and said:
"Students whose names I call, please enter the formation to undergo profession awakening!"
"Gao Chong!"
Gao Chong excitedly walked onto the high platform.
The formation raised a curtain of light, specks of starlight fell, and soon, the profession change ceremony concluded.
A line of text appeared on the light curtain above Gao Chong's head.
[Combat Profession: Thief]
Gao Chong's face was flushed; he hadn't even expected to be able to change to a combat profession.
"Damn it! A combat profession, did Gao Chong take drugs or something?"
"A Thief! Later, changing to a Shadow Assassin, or even a Shadow Rogue Saint, are all good choices!"
"So envious~"
"..."
Amidst the compliments, Gao Chong walked off the formation.
"Next, Wang Qiang!"
Yang Xuewei's voice sounded.
"Lin Han!"
"Wait for your brother to awaken a Beast Tamer profession and take you to the skies!"
Wang Qiang came from a good family, and his clan had produced several combat Beast Tamers throughout generations. After speaking, he jogged into the Profession Change Formation.
The light curtain rose and fell.
[Combat Profession: Card Master.]
"This is truly messed up!"
"I didn't become a Beast Tamer, but I ended up as a card dealer!"
Wang Qiang walked to Lin Han's side with a dejected expression and said.
"It's fine!"
"At least it's a combat profession, don't be picky!"
Lin Han smiled.
Over these past nine years, he had compiled awakening data. Among a hundred people, the awakening rate for combat professions.
Was only 15%.
And for Wang Qiang to become a Card Master.
It was already quite good!
"Niu Guli!"
"Ma Dadan!"
"..."
Soon, most of the Class Six students had undergone their profession change.
However, apart from a few more support professions that appeared, most of the students awakened as lifestyle professions like Farmer and Miner.
"Alas!"
"This batch of Class Six students doesn't have many promising talents!"
In front of the high platform, Wang Jian sighed. Class Six was a key class, and in previous years, by this point.
There would be at least 5 or more combat professions.
"Ahem!"
"Director, the next one is Lin Han!"
Yang Xuewei coughed twice, then pointed at Lin Han.
She had taught everything she could; if the students weren't strong, there was genuinely nothing she could do.
"Oh?"
"Is he the natural Warrior the principal mentioned?"
Looking at Lin Han.
A hint of anticipation flashed across Wang Jian's face.
He had heard.
This Lin Han had already completed courses in Battle Skill Analysis, Close-Quarters Combat, Rage Meditation, and Human Body Analysis.
He ranked first in the grade, earning him the title of No. 2 Middle School's top genius.
He was this batch's!
Most likely candidate to awaken a rare profession!
