Blue Star.
Dragon Kingdom, Southern Province, Lincheng.
Awakening Square at Lincheng No. 3 Middle School.
The annual awakening ceremony for senior high school students is about to begin.
Ye Chen stood in the line of Class 4, Grade 12, feeling somewhat excited.
Ye Chen is a time traveler who has been here from Earth for eighteen years.
Over the past eighteen years, he has gained a clear understanding of the world.
Over a hundred years ago, the game world invaded Earth, and countless powerful monsters poured in. The two worlds merged, Earth's area increased a thousandfold, and the world's rules changed drastically.
All firearms became ineffective, and countless secret realms and dungeons began to emerge.
Just when humanity was in despair, countless divine stones fell from the sky.
Anyone who is 18 years of age or older has the opportunity to awaken as a professional through the Divine Stone.
Each professional can gain experience points, materials, and even equipment by killing monsters in the wild, clearing dungeons, or conquering secret realms.
Gaining experience points allows you to level up your character and skills, thereby increasing your strength.
Fight against all kinds of monsters and carve out a living space for the human race.
After a century of development.
Humans can maximize their chances of awakening relevant professional skills by learning related professional knowledge.
The better you have a grasp of professional knowledge, the greater your chances of achieving success.
Even awaken rare or hidden professions!
Today is the annual Awakening Day.
Only on this day will various mysterious and obscure runes appear on the divine stone to help humans awaken their professional consciousness.
On this day, everyone who turns eighteen can undergo career awakening through the sacred stone.
More than a decade of diligent study—whether you become a dragon or a worm will be revealed today.
Ye Chen stood at the front of the Class 4, Grade 12 line. He was the top student in the whole school for three years and the undisputed number one genius of Lincheng No. 3 Middle School. He crushed the second place with absolute strength. Many people were full of expectations for Ye Chen's awakening.
"Look, that incredibly handsome senior is Ye Chen, the school heartthrob in his senior year. I heard he got full marks in all his archer specialization courses, both in theory and practice."
There were some junior high school girls whispering among themselves.
They are here today to observe the ceremony, which is a tradition of the annual awakening ceremony, allowing them to familiarize themselves with the awakening process in advance.
"Yeah, she could have made a living based on her looks, but she chose to rely on her talent instead."
"Principal Bai Xinyuan has also publicly stated that Ye Chen is very likely to awaken a special archer-type profession, or even a hidden profession!"
"I also want to awaken the archer class. Archers have fast attack speed and a super long attack range. It's simply my dream class."
Many admiring eyes were fixed on Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was already used to it; he had seen far too many such gazes over the years.
Perhaps due to Ye Chen's transmigration, his soul fusion might make him stronger than ordinary people. Although he doesn't have an awakening system, Ye Chen's memory and comprehension are excellent.
Ye Chen could easily master every course at school.
With the special marksman-focused course, Ye Chen found it even easier to learn, and he got full marks in every exam.
Even Principal Bai Xinyuan praised him to his face, saying that he would awaken a special archer-type profession, or even a hidden profession, and that he would have a bright future!
Ye Chen's eyes were full of anticipation.
I'm looking forward to what career I'll awaken next.
...
"The awakening ceremony is finally about to begin. I hope I can awaken a powerful hidden class, then I'll take off!"
"Dude, don't just drink, eat some food! There's a hidden class involved; you should be grateful you can awaken it!"
"My parents are ordinary people. They have endured so much hardship to support my education. I must make them proud and change my profession to a combat role so they can have a better life!"
The last student's words also reflected the sentiments of most students.
Professionals hold a far higher status than ordinary people. In most industries, professionals occupy core positions, and the pinnacle of power is also controlled by professionals.
Each year, about 30% of those who awaken become professionals, and of those, only about 40% become combat professionals, while the rest become life professions.
Combat classes typically include mages, warriors, priests, archers, assassins, summoners, and so on.
Life professions typically include blacksmith, pharmacist, enchanter, cook, and so on.
Generally speaking, what profession a student can awaken is largely related to the courses they major in.
The better you have a grasp of professional knowledge, the greater your chances of achieving success.
While the students were still chatting excitedly.
Principal Bai Xinyuan's voice came from the Awakening Platform.
"All senior high school students, get ready! The awakening ceremony is about to begin!"
"Class teachers, please lead your students to the stage in order of their student ID numbers for a professional awareness session!"
It's finally starting!
Everyone was incredibly excited!
"Wang Teng, Class 1, Senior 3!"
Meanwhile, a boy from Class 1 of Senior Three stepped out of the crowd and came to the Awakening Platform, where he was fortunate enough to become the first person to receive the Awakening Ceremony.
"It's Wang Teng, the top student in Class 1 of Senior Three. I heard that his grades in the mage specialization course have consistently been in the top three of the grade. He might be able to awaken a high-level mage profession."
"Probably. I heard someone told his fortune and said he has the potential to become an emperor."
"Wang Teng is about to awaken his new profession. Let's see what profession he can awaken."
Wang Teng placed one hand on the Awakening Stone.
The Awakening Stone emitted a white light, enveloping Wang Teng.
In a short while, streaks of red light appeared in the white light, eventually forming a pattern of flames.
