"Zhu Fugui, S-class Transformation Class!!"
The instructor's voice rose sharply. It was clear just how shocked he was. He had never expected that oddball who wanted to set up a longevity tablet for the Awakening Stele to actually awaken—and with a top-tier S-class talent at that. For a moment, the instructor felt dazed!
Should I go home and do the same thing?
The more the instructor thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. When he got home, he would make his brat set up a longevity tablet for the Awakening Stone and worship it every day!!
Zhu Fugui had no idea that he had completely led his teacher astray. His mind was blank, with only the instructor's words echoing over and over in his head.
"S-class??? Are you talking about me?? Am I hearing things!!"
Zhu Fugui even suspected that the instructor had made a mistake.
But the inheritance information in his mind clearly told him that he had awakened—an S-class talent.
And it was not an ordinary Transformation Class talent, but the rarest Phantom God Class within the Transformation Class.
The Phantom God Class was an advanced branch of the Transformation Class. It referred to certain creatures from mythology and was far more powerful than ordinary Transformation Class abilities.
"Teacher, let me slap you. I want to see if I'm dreaming??"
Zhu Fugui looked blankly at the instructor, then suddenly said that to him.
"..."
The instructor was truly speechless at the fat man's thought process. Damn it, if you want to see whether you're dreaming, slap yourself. Why are you slapping me!!
"Student Zhu, you're not dreaming. You really did awaken an S-class talent. Congratulations!!"
The instructor hurriedly explained it to Zhu Fugui. He was genuinely afraid that this idiot would actually hit him.
After hearing the instructor's words again, Zhu Fugui seemed to finally come back to his senses.
His two-hundred-plus-pound body suddenly leaped off the stage.
Bang!!!
A thunderous boom rang out, and the entire Sky-Leaping Hall seemed to tremble from Zhu Fugui's landing.
After hitting the ground, Zhu Fugui rolled toward Class One like an enormous ball.
"Hahaha... Teacher, did you see that?? Me!! Zhu Fugui! S-class!! Hahaha!"
Zhu Fugui happily bounced over to Lin Yizhong and showed off.
Lin Yizhong was happy for Zhu Fugui as well.
Although his family was not as close to Zhu Wansan's family as Lin Yu's family was, their families had kept in touch over the years because of Lin Yu's family, and their relationship was still very good.
Now that Zhu Fugui had made something of himself, Lin Yizhong naturally felt gratified.
"Alright! Go back to your seat first. The Awakening Ritual is still underway, so don't disrupt the order here!"
Zhu Fugui also knew that this was not the right occasion.
He suppressed the excitement in his heart and returned to his seat.
The moment he sat down, he eagerly began showing off to Lin Yu beside him.
"Brother Yu! Brother Yu! Did you see how awesome your Fat Master is? S-class!! Hahaha!!"
Fat Zhu was completely floating on air now.
He had thought he was just here to make up the numbers, but this surprise had come far too suddenly!
"Alright, Fatty. It's just an S-class. That's enough. Besides, are you sure you want to show off in front of me??"
Seeing that Fat Zhu was getting carried away, Lin Yu helplessly pointed at the sunglasses covering his eyes.
Zhu Fugui blinked.
Then he suddenly remembered that the man before him possessed an unprecedented SSS-class talent.
Showing off in front of Lin Yu felt like swinging a broadsword before Guan Yu.
At that thought, it was as if someone had dumped a bucket of cold water over him, and he instantly wilted.
"Brother Yu! Can't you just let me show off for a bit?!"
The fat man muttered and quieted down.
The S-class talent that had seemed so amazing just moments ago suddenly did not feel quite as impressive anymore!
"Alright, hurry up and sort through your inheritance information! You'll have plenty of time to show off later!"
Lin Yu rolled his eyes and stopped paying attention to Zhu Fugui.
He propped his chin on his arm and continued staring blankly at the Awakening Stele on the stage.
Zhu Fugui's awakening seemed to inject all the students present with a shot of adrenaline.
The previously tense atmosphere eased somewhat, and every student stared fervently at the Awakening Stone on the stage.
But unfortunately, it seemed as though Zhu Fugui had used up all the good luck.
The next several groups were almost all F-class, and not even one talent above C-class appeared!
"Lin Yu..."
Lin Yizhong's voice reached Lin Yu's ears.
Lin Yu calmly stood up, stretched lazily, and walked out.
Lin Yizhong looked at Lin Yu approaching him and gave him an encouraging look.
Lin Yu smiled faintly.
What he was about to do would be far more than simply trying his best!!
Lin Yu walked onto the stage with excitement in his heart.
Looking at the stone stele so close before him, he could barely contain his excitement.
The Rinnegan beneath his sunglasses nearly glowed red!!
"9527, what do I need to do later??"
"Dad, you just need to place your hand on it. Leave everything else to me!!"
9527's voice was also filled with excitement.
Thinking about the massive wave of energy that was about to flow in, she immediately became thrilled!!
"Okay! Hehe!!"
"Hmm???"
Ji Xuejun looked suspiciously at Lin Yu, who was wearing sunglasses on the stage.
He somehow looked familiar, and the more she looked at him, the more she felt that something was off!!
"Old man, don't you think there's something strange about your student?? And I feel like I've seen him somewhere before!!"
Ji Xuejun frowned as she asked.
She clearly sensed that there was a problem, yet she could not grasp that feeling at all. It made her feel somewhat irritated!!
"Hm? You feel it too? I thought I was imagining things!! He does seem a little strange, but I can't put my finger on what exactly is strange!!"
The old principal was equally puzzled!
Everything about Lin Yu looked normal. At most, it was a little inappropriate to wear sunglasses on an occasion like this.
Yet that vague sense of discord continued to linger in his heart!
"Old friend! Why did you let a Martial University student go up there?? Isn't this nonsense?"
At that moment, Fang Tianhai, the director of the Banyan City Education Bureau beside them, suddenly spoke up!
"How is that possible! I don't know why he's wearing sunglasses, but how could I not recognize an outstanding student from our academy! Old Fang, do you think I've gone senile!!"
The old principal looked utterly speechless.
Could he really mistake one of his own students? He might not know every single student, but he at least knew the outstanding ones!
"You're telling me that a second-rank student is from your academy??? Tell me, what Primary Academy student would have second-rank strength before awakening??"
Fang Tianhai could not even be bothered to maintain his image anymore.
If you, Murong Hongchen, were not senile, then was he the senile one? This was so obviously a second-rank cultivator, yet Murong Hongchen was claiming he was a student from a Primary Academy?
"What's wrong with second-rank? My Banyan City No. 1 High School has a second-rank... a second-rank?"
At first, the old principal spoke with conviction.
But halfway through, he suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
A second-rank student? Had he heard that correctly?
The old principal hurriedly looked toward Lin Yu on the stage.
His eyes widened more and more, nearly popping out of their sockets.
He really was second-rank!!
"Stop!!!"
The old principal shot to his feet and halted the Awakening Ritual.
Lin Yu and the others, who had been about to begin, turned toward the voice in confusion.
They saw Murong Hongchen below, his eyes wide as bells and his expression deadly serious.
"Student! Which Martial University are you from? Why are you here? Don't you know that only students who have not awakened are allowed here? This is not a place for you to mess around. Where is student Lin Yu?"
