From then on, Qingxue began to secretly compete with him, working hard to surpass him.
Lin Yu then began to face various warnings and suppression from Qing Xue's suitors. One rich second-generation even gave him a sum of money, asking him to give up his first place.
Lin Yu was upright and righteous, but the other party gave him far too much!
As a result, Qingxue got her wish and ranked first, while Lin Yu fell to outside the top ten, like a fledgling eagle with broken wings, unable to spread his wings and soar again.
Qingxue was very happy, feeling that her efforts had finally paid off.
However, this period of good fortune was short-lived. The school set up a special column next to the flower bed to publicly display the academic rankings in order to encourage students to compete.
The first student can also add their own personalized slogan on it.
That time, Lin Yu again came in first place, a full 90 points higher than Qing Xue, who came in second. His slogan was:
"Hey student, want a haircut? Daidailong Beauty Salon welcomes everyone!"
Lin Yu was upright and honest, but the hair salon owner gave him way too much!
The moment the list was released, it really hurt the pride of the top students.
Qingxue knew that she was probably no match for Lin Yu in academic performance, so she secretly made up her mind to crush Lin Yu in terms of strength, so that Lin Yu could also experience what it meant to have his self-esteem hurt.
Now that she has awakened her talent, defeating Lin Yu is a piece of cake for her.
Thinking about it this way, Qingxue was very happy.
Lin Yu frowned.
As he got closer to Qingxue, the chill in his body intensified, and a thin layer of frost began to cover his skin.
If this continues, Lin Yu will likely be frozen into an ice sculpture.
"Qingxue, your beauty is truly breathtaking. Please stay away from me," Lin Yu said sincerely but helplessly.
Qingxue's talent is too extraordinary. I wonder if I can compete with her after I change jobs.
"I hope you freeze to death!" Qingxue twisted her waist and walked to the side with her cool steps.
Lin Yu breathed a long sigh of relief as the chill on his body gradually dissipated.
At this moment, another group of people entered the magic circle and came out. A slightly chubby boy strode towards Lin Yu with his head held high, as if he did not see him, and bumped into him head-on.
Lin Yu tried to dodge, but the other party was too fast. Lin Yu was knocked off balance, felt dizzy, and almost fell.
The opponent's physical abilities after the job change were already superior to those of ordinary people, so it was normal for Lin Yu to be unable to cope.
He frowned as he watched the slightly chubby boy stride away, bumping into someone and not even turning back.
"Student, when you bump into someone, it's best to say sorry."
The boy sneered: "Before you ask me to apologize, you'd better ask what my profession is. As a noble archer, what's wrong with bumping into you?"
"Are archers so great?" Upon hearing this, Gao Yang was the first to be unable to stand it and wanted to rush up and question him.
Unexpectedly, the slightly chubby boy suddenly kicked Gao Yang from behind, knocking him down.
His gaze was disdainful, and he coldly snorted, "Get lost!"
Lin Yu helped Gao Yang up, then turned and left with him.
Gao Yang gritted his teeth: "Lin Yu, I can't swallow this!"
Lin Yu shook his head: "To reason with unreasonable people, you have to use strength."
He gestured for Gao Yang to calm down: "Go and complete the job change first."
The two entered the magic circle one after the other. The magic circle had eight directions in total, resembling the Bagua (Eight Trigrams), and was extremely mysterious.
The two stood at opposite points on the magic circle, and the magic circle only lit up when all eight points were occupied.
The archer cautiously approached Qingxue, grinning as he said:
"Qingxue, congratulations on awakening your talent. It seems that among your peers, there will be few who can compare with you."
Qingxue glanced at him indifferently, then her gaze fell on the job change formation, where Lin Yu's figure was faintly visible.
The archer, his eyes flashing with anger, continued to laugh:
"Qingxue, you're a top-tier genius now. There's no need to pay attention to Lin Yu anymore. That kid is trash. I could easily beat him with one hand!"
This time, Qingxue simply ignored them, her icy aura forcing the archers back. Her gaze remained fixed on the magic circle, and she murmured to herself:
"Lin Yu, I hope you won't let me down."
The archer's forehead veins bulged, his face darkened, and he also looked at the magic circle.
Lin Yu, I'd like to see what kind of job you can get after changing jobs?
Lin Yu stood in the magic circle, feeling a warm light enveloping him, merging with him little by little, from his body to his consciousness.
A massive amount of information, like an instinct, was imprinted in his memory. His genetic sequence began to recombine, his body rapidly strengthened, and surging energy flowed into his body.
"Buzz!"
The sound of a sword ringing out arose, and the phantom of a long sword hovered above his head.
"A swordsman? Very good! Lin Yu, you certainly haven't disappointed me!"
Qingxue's eyes shone brightly, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. She was very satisfied with the profession Lin Yu had chosen.
Only if Lin Yu is strong enough, so strong that few of his peers can rival him, and only then can his strength be truly demonstrated by her overwhelming power.
The archer's face grew increasingly grim.
He originally thought that Lin Yu would be at his mercy, becoming a stepping stone for him to increase his fame and win the favor of the school beauty.
After all, given his profession, he has few rivals except for a few top-tier professions.
But Lin Yu happened to switch to the swordsman class, the pinnacle of the profession!
Damn it! My stepping stone has turned into a stumbling block!
At the same time, a panel that only Lin Yu could see appeared in front of him.
Name: Lin Yu. Occupation: Swordsman.
Level: LV1 (Strength +10, Agility +10, Defense +5, Spirit +10, Health +100)
Experience points: 0%.
Mana: 100/100.

Lin Yu's face lit up with joy.
"swordsman!"
Swordsmen are top-tier combat professions, and Lin Yu is very satisfied with his ability to become a swordsman!
However, when Lin Yu thought of Qing Xue's almost freakish talent, he couldn't help but feel a little envious.
I wish I could awaken my talent too.
As the phantom of the longsword above his head fell into his body, Lin Yu's body trembled violently, feeling both bewildered and confused.
Immediately, a message appeared on his control panel: "Talent: Sword Spirit".
