Hidden Class: Gu Master

Watching Pan Yuanyuan leave surrounded by admirers, Cao Xiaochun could not help sighing at the cruelty of the world. This beauty was fortunate—despite awakening such a poor class, adolescent boys were always restless. As long as she could make use of her charms, leveling up would not be too difficult.

After all, simps were always dreaming of evolving into battle wolves.

As more and more people awakened, Cao Xiaochun began to grow anxious.

"I have to awaken a combat class, even if it's only the most basic one!"

"I finally got a second life. If I don't even have a ticket into the core of this world, wouldn't that be unbearably frustrating?"

Next, Li Hanyi!

Soon, a cool and aloof older beauty with long legs slowly stepped forward.

She was the school belle and Cao Xiaochun's deskmate. Her peerless face and icy temperament destined her to be a cold beauty.

With her usual personality, where even three blows could not force a fart out of her, despite sitting beside Cao Xiaochun for two years, they had barely exchanged a few words.

As for her figure, not standing at attention was the greatest respect one could show!

Because Li Hanyi enjoyed such a high reputation at school, many people wanted to see the result of her class awakening. Some who thought they had a chance were even praying that she would end up like Pan Yuanyuan.

As Li Hanyi entered the magic formation, a dazzling golden light flashed. Compared with the light from everyone else's awakenings, this was practically a miniature sun.

The principal in the distance was also drawn to the golden light.

"Li Hanyi, special class: Demon Enslaver!"

"Holy shit, it's a branch class of Spirit Beast Master! That's a rare and powerful class!"

Spirit Beast Masters could contract all kinds of pets to fight for them, and among this vast class were some powerful branch classes!

Demon Enslavers, as the name implied, could only form contracts with demons. Moreover, they forcibly commanded demons in battle through overwhelming enslavement.

They also possessed absurd skills such as devouring other demons to strengthen themselves and merging with demons in combat!

"With Li Hanyi's family background, getting a few demons won't be a problem. This is a class that lets you grow stronger while lying down. Warriors and mages are weak as hell compared to this..."

"You awakened the Vegetable Farmer class, and you dare mock combat classes?"

"And you're obviously focusing on the wrong thing! There are Succubi among demons. Combined with Li Hanyi's icy personality, that's the perfect cute contrast!"

Amid everyone's envy, a faint curve appeared on Li Hanyi's lips. She was clearly very satisfied with the talent she had awakened.

"Although this Demon Contractor isn't a hidden class, it ranks among the top ten rare classes. Your school has produced another talent this year."

"Of course. I've always believed that everyone at our Third High School is a dragon among men!"

The principal could barely contain his excitement. If he did not have to maintain his image, he would have slapped the table and cheered on the spot!

This was all political achievement and career prospects!

Next, Cao Xiaochun!

At last, his name was called. Cao Xiaochun let out a heavy breath, adjusted his mindset, then stepped forward and slowly entered the magic formation.

Boom!

The moment Cao Xiaochun stepped into the formation, the previously clear sky was suddenly covered by dark clouds. Dull thunder rumbled through the air, while blood-red lightning continuously coiled within the clouds. The sudden scene startled everyone present!

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

All at once, the Awakening Stele erupted with waves of humming. Endless streams of light shot into the sky, and the entire stele shook violently, as though it were welcoming some terrifying existence!

At that moment, everyone's attention turned toward him. The principal, who had been chatting just moments earlier, suddenly sprang to his feet, his eyes wide as he exclaimed in shock.

"A heavenly phenomenon! Another hidden class!"

If a heavenly phenomenon appeared during the class awakening process, it meant that a hidden class would inevitably emerge.

The principal remembered that when Shui Yunji awakened last year, a phantom Asura formed from lightning had descended from the sky, like a god descending into the mortal world.

And although the spectacle surrounding Cao Xiaochun now seemed somewhat strange, he felt that the unknown thing was even more terrifying than that Asura. Even he could sense an oppressive pressure!

"This means that Cao Xiaochun's hidden class may be even more powerful than Shui Yunji's!

Boom...

Another bolt of blood-red lightning fell. The thick clouds in the sky split in two, revealing an empty valley!

At the top of the valley stood a mountain made of crystal, radiating an eerie glow. Around it flowed a long river, and upon closer inspection, one would be astonished to discover that its waters flowed upstream!

"On Reverse Flow River, ten thousand immortals retreat; the Immortal Venerables regret, but I do not."

"In Downfallen Valley, the Nine Songs fall; I cast away this broken body in exchange for a clear breeze."

"On Soul-Shaking Mountain, you, me, and him; mountains of people, laughing heartily."

"Heaven's Admonition!" As thunder rumbled again and again, the blood-red lightning slowly gathered, forming several lines of text. At the sight, the principal could no longer maintain his composure and shouted aloud!

In Hua Nation, over the past three hundred years, the only hidden class to produce Heaven's Admonition had been the Empress's Dragon Tamer. Now, another had appeared. H City Third Middle School was going to rise!

"Damn, isn't that Cao Xiaochun from Class Three? I heard he's quite close with Shui Yunji. Do geniuses all stick together?"

"I'm so jealous. In the future, they'll be an immortal couple, while I can only hug my pillow and cry."

"Boss, take me with you! I can cook, give massages, and warm your bed!"

"Why could he awaken a hidden class while I can only become a Tailor? Heaven is unfair!"

Pan Yuanyuan felt exceptionally aggrieved at that moment. They were both human, so why was the difference in treatment so enormous?

"It's fine, Yuanyuan. Even if you're a Tailor, you'll always be our goddess."

"That's right. We'll always protect you!"

"Get lost!"

Amid the envious howls of the crowd, the phenomenon continued for another fifteen minutes before gradually fading away.

Yet Cao Xiaochun, standing inside the formation, felt no excitement at all. Instead, he was somewhat frightened.

Those three incredibly familiar place names reminded him of someone—the Great Love Immortal Venerable, who had been sealed by the Heavenly Dao!

No way... did this summon that workhorse?

As the class awakening ceremony ended, Cao Xiaochun's result was revealed.

"Cao Xiaochun, unique hidden class: Gu Master!"

In an instant, the previously boisterous school field fell completely silent.

The principal, who had seemed as though he had taken stimulants moments ago, now resembled a duck with its throat squeezed. He wanted to say something, but no words came out, and his old face flushed bright red from holding it in!

Everyone looked at Cao Xiaochun in the formation with varying expressions. However, the envy they had shown earlier had now vanished completely.

"Principal! Principal!"

"This is bad! The principal's heart condition is acting up! Quickly, bring the medicine!"
