One skill point per second? This cheat is a bit too much!

Parallel world, Earth.

On the sports field of Jiangcheng No. 2 High School, the crowd was bustling.

Today was the day for the third-year students of No. 2 High School to awaken their professions.

It was also the oath-taking rally for the national professional college entrance examination!

Countless students in the No. 2 High School uniform sat in rows by class. Behind them, numerous media and news reporters, carrying cameras, recorded this important moment.

"Third-year Class Eight, all soldiers!"

"Stand up!"

"Take the oath with me—"

At the front of the queue, a spirited young man suddenly stood up, grabbed the microphone, and roared at the top of his lungs.

"From today onwards, I will become a member of the Great Xia's professional force!"

"I will train diligently and level up bravely!"

"The revival of humanity has a part in me... cough!"

Perhaps it was due to exerting too much force, but as he finished the string of oaths, he even started to gag.

Clap, clap, clap, clap!

The school leaders on the stage took the lead in applauding.

Countless media and news reporters also offered their applause and praise!

This was the spirit they wanted to see!

In the queue for third-year Class Eight.

A handsome-looking boy couldn't hold back and almost burst out laughing.

His name was Lin Yi. He had transmigrated to this world eighteen years ago.

This was a world that had been merged and invaded by countless games. The entire world's map had expanded more than tenfold compared to the Earth Lin Yi knew in his previous life.

Furthermore, the humans in this world were not the true apex predators of the food chain on Earth.

In vast unknown regions, numerous unknown terrifying monsters and ferocious beasts lurked, constantly threatening the flame of human civilization.

In such an environment, everyone was like they had been injected with adrenaline, constantly thinking about improving themselves.

It was all about preparation for battle, and preparation for battle only.

Fortunately, humanity had also received the blessings of Earth's Heavenly Dao.

Everyone had a chance to awaken a skill upon turning 18 and becoming an adult.

Obtaining a combat-related skill meant successfully transferring to a main combat profession.

Subsequently, they would become the vanguards of humanity against monsters and ferocious beasts.

Their status and position were much higher than those who awakened support or life-related skills.

"You can still laugh? I'm so nervous I could die!"

A tall and sturdy boy next to Lin Yi nudged his waist, sweat pouring down his face.

"What's there to be nervous about? It's just awakening a profession," Lin Yi said dismissively, remaining calm and composed.

The tall boy's name was Zhang Shan, Lin Yi's good friend. Perhaps it was due to the high expectations from his parents.

Despite his imposing physique, he was far from as calm and carefree as Lin Yi at this moment.

"You've been the top student in the entire grade for the past three years, of course you're not nervous!"

"Damn it, I just want to be a warrior and inherit my dad's legacy. He even has a full set of equipment and skill books, and even 5 skill point scrolls saved up for me!"

"Time to drop some gold, old man!"

Lin Yi chuckled. What a filial son.

As the oath-taking ceremony concluded, the profession awakening ceremony for Jiangcheng No. 2 High School officially began.

The ceremony process was very simple. Those whose names were called would walk onto the stage and touch the large, pale blue spirit crystal floating in the center of the stage to obtain their first skill.

Simultaneously, based on the skill obtained, they would awaken corresponding professional traits.

"Zhao Kuan, obtained skill: Fishing, life profession: Fisherman!"

"Cai Kun, obtained skill: Singing, life profession: Idol!"

"Jiang Chengliang, obtained skill: Blacksmithing, life profession: Blacksmith!"

As one person after another went on stage to awaken their profession.

The teachers announcing the awakening results on stage recited one cold skill and profession after another. Many people in the audience, like Zhang Shan, became nervous.

In fact, the teachers at Jiangcheng No. 2 High School were also very dissatisfied.

Everyone was talking in low voices.

Why are this year's students so poor in aptitude?

More than ten minutes had passed, and not a single person had awakened a combat-type skill!

"Jiang Ya, come up and awaken your profession!"

The teacher on stage called out another name. The next moment, everyone in Class 3-8 turned their gaze towards a girl with a cool demeanor at the front of the queue.

"Go, Jiang Ya!" Hu Kai, the class monitor who had just shouted until his voice cracked, stood at the very front of Class 8. He offered a smile he thought was warm to encourage Jiang Ya.

Who knew his flattery wouldn't land.

Because at this moment, she didn't even look at him.

Instead, she raised her eyes to look at another boy in the back of the group.

Lin Yi felt Jiang Ya's slightly provocative gaze and was a little helpless.

It's not like she's been consistently suppressed by me for the past three years, is it? Why the resentment? She even has to provoke me when awakening her profession.

As the class beauty of Class 8 and the school beauty of Jiangcheng No. 2 High School, Jiang Ya's glance was significant.

Instantly, everyone's attention shifted back to Lin Yi.

After all, one was first in the grade, and the other was second. The tension between them was palpable.

What professions they would awaken was also something countless people were eagerly discussing.

Jiang Ya gave Lin Yi a deep look before striding onto the stage and reaching out to touch the blue spirit crystal.

The next moment, the blue spirit crystal trembled a few times and emitted a violent magic fluctuation.

In the next instant, the entire sports field erupted in strange phenomena!

Countless sand and stones began to defy gravity, slowly floating into the air.

They even moved in a mysterious trajectory, constantly rotating.

The old principal's eyes lit up.

Before the teacher could announce anything, he preempted them and declared the awakening result.

"Jiang Ya, awakened skill: Telekinesis! Combat-type profession: Mentalist!"

Whoosh!

The entire venue erupted in shock!

Click, click!

The reporters, who had grown impatient waiting, frantically pressed their shutters, recording this historic moment!

Mentalist, a rare-level profession!

This profession allowed its user to attack enemies with mental power to control objects, and also to completely destroy an enemy's mental defenses with terrifying psychic energy.

Even Jiang Ya, the cool-faced school beauty, managed a faint smile after confirming she had obtained such an incredibly rare profession.

"Lin Yi, come up and awaken your profession!"

Following Jiang Ya's astonishing awakening.

This time, everyone's attention was once again focused on Lin Yi.

Even the second-ranked student got a rare profession.

Wouldn't the first-ranked student get a legendary profession?

As for even higher, epic-level professions, they didn't dare to think about it.

The pressure was on Lin Yi.

Zhang Shan, that guy, couldn't stop his hands from trembling.

But his good brother was about to face the most important challenge of his life, so he still offered his blessings.

"You can do it, Ah Yi! Get an epic profession!"

Lin Yi strode onto the stage.

To say he wasn't nervous would be impossible.

In this environment, under the gaze and anticipation of so many people.

Even though Lin Yi, having lived two lives, had a calm state of mind, he still felt a trace of anxiety.

He reached out and touched the blue spirit crystal.

A cold sensation washed over him.

The next moment, a faint magic fluctuation came from the spirit crystal.

The old principal on the side raised his eyebrows slightly, some anticipation in his eyes.

Who knew that this magic fluctuation, the moment it appeared, didn't strengthen any further.

That was the extent of it.

Finally, he hid his disappointment and reluctantly announced, "Lin Yi, awakened skill: Fireball, combat class: Mage."

Mage.

The most common Mage!

Although it was a combat class, with Jiang Ya's precedent and the countless auras Lin Yi had previously displayed.

This result undoubtedly left most people greatly disappointed!

Click, click!

The sound of camera shutters was incessant.

Lin Yi stood on the stage.

Not because he was dissatisfied with the skill and class he had awakened.

But at the same time, he heard another voice in his mind.

[Congratulations, you have awakened the SSS-rank talent: Gift of the Gods!]

[Effect: You gain 1 skill point per second.]

[Note: This talent will gradually unlock more functions as your experience and strength increase. Please look forward to it!]
