Jianghai No. 1 High School, Awakening Plaza.
Today was the annual Job Transfer Ceremony.
All the third-year students looked incredibly nervous.
In this world, the strong are respected, and a good profession is essential.
Moreover, there were too many uncertain factors in the job transfer!
...
“Zhang San.”
“C-Grade Life Profession: Glue Applicator!”
As the Awakening Teacher announced.
A chorus of boos erupted from below the stage.
On the awakening platform, the young man’s body trembled violently, and he walked down disconsolately.
His face flushed, he could no longer bear it and let out a furious roar of helplessness:
“I'm supposed to kill monsters, not apply glue!”
...
“Wang Wu.”
“D-Grade Life Profession: Ash Remover!”
“I just turned eighteen, and you want me to remove ash???”
...
Everyone wanted to awaken a powerful combat profession, such as a Mage, Warrior, or Archer.
No one was willing to be a logistics support.
The Awakening Teacher continued to shout:
“Next, Li Yang!”
Instantly, there was an uproar among the crowd.
“He’s here! It’s Scholar Li!”
“I’m so excited, will we witness history?”
Even the usually silent Awakening Teacher showed a look of anticipation in his eyes.
Li Yang’s name was famous throughout the entire school.
He had excellent talent and was known as a 'Roll King'!
He had suppressed the students of his same grade for three whole years; no matter what activity, Li Yang was always first without exception.
Among the crowd, Li Yang looked up, his eyes bright.
He was still confident about awakening a profession.
After all, having transmigrated such a long distance, he should at least get some transmigration benefits!
As he walked onto the awakening platform.
Everyone present focused their gaze on him.
Li Yang placed his hand on the Awakening Stone, and his consciousness gradually blurred...
At the same time, the Awakening Stone emitted a green light.
The plaza was silent, and the air seemed to freeze.
A moment later, the plaza completely erupted!
“Green??”
“It’s a D-Grade Profession!”
A D-Grade Profession was acceptable for an ordinary person; it was very common.
But this was Li Yang, on whom countless people had placed their hopes!
From the first year of high school, he had displayed unparalleled learning talent!
The descendants of strong individuals, the wealthy, and the noble sons from humble backgrounds, all his peers, were suppressed by him.
It truly embodied the saying: I’ve seen many geniuses, but they all called me a genius.
By the second year of high school, he had already finished all the third-year courses, making the third-year students feel ashamed of themselves.
However...
Who would have thought?
At today’s Awakening Ceremony...
Green represented the most common D-Grade.
Students who awakened a D-Grade Profession usually considered whether they should still pursue the path of a professional.
After all, there was not much difference from ordinary people anymore.
The plaza was in an uproar.
“In this world, what’s the use of effort? If you awaken a trash profession, aren’t you just a stepping stone?”
“Waste is waste. What if he finished all high school courses early in the second year? Even a single level difference in profession grade is a chasm that effort cannot cross.”
“D-Grade Profession...” Zhang San, who had just awakened as a Glue Applicator, mused, “Doesn’t that mean the famous Scholar Li is even worse than me? I never thought I’d have this day! Hahaha!”
“......”
People like to create gods, and they like even more to see them fall!
Even if Li Yang had awakened a one-in-a-million S-Rank Profession at this moment, the scene would probably not be as lively and agitated as it was now.
“Hahaha! Well said, waste is waste!”
Among the crowd, Zhang Tao’s face was filled with excitement.
If anyone was most pleased with this outcome, it was definitely him!
He had awakened an S-Rank Assassin profession today!
Although Li Yang had been powerful before, not everyone was convinced; they just didn’t dare to show it. After all, students of this age, who wasn't full of youthful vigor and a sense of self-importance?
Especially someone like Zhang Tao, who came from a good family.
His father was the Guild Master of Legendary Guild, a famous guild in Jianghai City!
And he was the only son!
Although his Guild Master father had told him more than once to maintain a good relationship with Li Yang and try to curry favor with him.
He had indeed done so, but deep down, he resented Li Yang for stealing all the limelight and also for winning the favor of the school beauty, Du Qingran!
He never expected that Li Yang would finally fall from grace today!
Li Yang?
At the end of the day, he was just a poor boy with no background!
He was only praised because he had some talent.
But now that he only awakened a D-Grade Profession, who would still indulge him?
“From now on, there’s no need to contact this Li Yang,” a middle-aged man in the crowd said coldly.
Beside him was a tall, beautiful young girl.
It was none other than Du Qingran, the school beauty of Jianghai No. 1 High School!
Looking at Li Yang, who was surrounded by green light on the stage, Du Qingran nodded distantly:
“Of course, Father, he is no longer worthy of me.”
If she hadn’t valued Li Yang’s potential, she would never have lowered herself to pursue a boy.
Fortunately, Li Yang had always treated her as a classmate and rejected her many hints.
As she thought, she turned her gaze to Zhang Tao and Jiang Hao, who had awakened S-Rank Professions.
...
In the audience.
Principal Wang’s face was terribly dark.
“Three years... and the result is a waste!”
As a principal, Wang Yun had been in a high position for decades and understood the art of marketing very well.
To enhance his school's influence and public image.
It was common practice to promote outstanding students to boost public recognition.
For a naturally good prospect like Li Yang, only he knew how many resources and efforts he had spent to build momentum.
But he never expected that Li Yang would be so disappointing today, a D-Grade Profession! Was he even human?
Thinking of this, he was filled with regret.
The admissions teacher from Tianfu Academy sneered:
“Principal Wang, is this the prodigy from your school? We’re afraid we can’t afford him.”
Although he didn't say it directly, his face showed disdain and displeasure.
The admissions teacher from Rongjing Academy was even less polite.
“Hmph, our academy’s guaranteed admission slot will not be wasted on such a person. If such a student wants to enter our academy, he should figure out how to score more points on the college entrance exam!”
“How unlucky. We waited so long, and this is what you called the grand finale?”
As the college entrance exam approached, their task was to identify good prospects early and recruit them into their respective academies first.
But it should be known that Jianghai City had more than just this one high school. The reason they came to Jianghai No. 1 High School was because they heard about Li Yang, wasn't it?
This Principal Wang had praised him to the skies to invite them over, but now...
It was utterly contemptible!
Listening, Wang Yun’s face turned green and then purple, but he dared not get angry as he usually would.
He could only force a smile and say:
“I indeed misjudged this Li Yang; he’s just a waste. But our No. 1 High School still has 3 decent S-Rank Professions this year, which is not inferior to other schools.”
At this moment.
No one noticed that the Dean of Students, Han Tianming, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, a look of glee on his face.
‘So he’s a D-Grade waste. Good, that saves me the risk of exposing myself by making a move.’
...
Inside Li Yang’s consciousness space.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he was stunned.
Standing before him was the image of a petite Goddess of Healing holding a baguette.
【D-Grade Profession - Radiance】
【Support-type profession, possesses healing abilities.】
【Do you wish to transfer profession?】
Indeed, it was a D-Grade Profession, just as he had seen, and it was ridiculously bad, a healer at that.
But what surprised him was.
Behind it, there were actually several black phantom figures, but only their outlines were visible.
A moment later, Li Yang reacted.
He had!
A total of three profession choices??
