The compound of Tainhau Academy sprawled across a plateau, a massive open ground paved with stone tiles and lined with flowering pavilions.
At its center stood the tall awakening Crystal, a jagged monolith of translucent blue that pulsed with light like a heartbeat.
So, this is an awakening crystal. It is said that infusing your mana into the crystal helps you awaken. But a non-awakened person won't have mana unless you are gifted so, a priest class is needed to help others.
The skill "Bless" covers one's body with mana, so, just by placing your hand on the crystal, you can awaken a class.
Around the crystal, the compound was filled with onlookers.
Military officials in crisp uniforms observed meticulously. It is clear they are looking for suitable classes to recruit.
Merchants, nobles, and visiting celebrities and well-known figures whispered among themselves, noting rare awakenings and dismissing weak ones. They are probably here to look for a powerful individuals for the guild.
Even the local authorities had brought their own investigators to document potential heroes for the Xia empire.
Students lined up before the crystal.
Among the few who have already awakened, some were happy to awaken combat class, while some were sad to awaken life class.
However, among them, one of the life classes wasn't sad because his class was blacksmith, which means he will soon be sleeping in a bed made out of gold.
The army officers were ready to recruit him.
Damn, I am at the last... oh never mind, it's Ye Chen who is behind me.
Still, I need to wait some time for my turn.
Shall I start a conversation with Ye Chen? Nah, I don't think that's a good idea.
Soon, it was Young Master Bai's turn.
His fingers brushed the crystal lightly.
Bai Heng's eyes widened. His breathing quickened.
"Rare Class: Dual-element mage"
The crystal projected a bright Purple and orange aura. It was a subtle feeling, like an image being burned into one's consciousness.
"This... Lightning and fire element." The priest said. It is rare but the dual element of lighting and fire is none less than Epic class with insane firepower.
Classes are divided into: Life class, common, rare, epic, and legendary.
A loud gasp echoed through the compound. Students stared in awe. The teachers nodded their heads in approval.
"Wow, Young Master's future is limitless..."
"That's Young Master Bai for you..."
"Kyaaaaa!!! I want to bear Young Master's monkeys"
Only Ye Chen remained unimpressed, a little smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.
"Heh, what's so good about it? Isn't it merely lighting and fire element..."
Huh?
This bitch... What does he mean by what's so good about it? That's a dual-element mage of lightning and fire. A true DPS inside the dungeon. He can solo clear weak dungeons.
Anyway, I shouldn't say anything. It's better to keep quiet and observe.
Soon, it was Su Chenxue's turn.
As soon as she placed her hands on the crystal, the entire crystal started to light up with bright green.
"Epic… It's Epic Class…"
The priest said with an excited look. It was the first-ever Epic healing class.
Everyone was shocked. What the hell? An Epic class? How the hell did she get it?
"Epic Class: Spirit healer..." The Priest announced.
"Healer... Hehe Sister Chenxue and Young Master Bai can be a good combo..."
"Hehe, you spoke what was in my tongue, you Sly bastard,"
"Whoa, Epic class healer... I thought Healer could only go up to the Rare category." A teacher said.
"As expected of My little flower... She awakened an epic healer class, system hurry up and use appraiser on her..." Ye Chen, behind me muttered lightly but I could hear it all.
What does he mean by his little flower, I truly felt like beating this brat to teach him how high the sky is.
Anyway... System? Did he just say system appraise her?
Arggggg!!!
Fuck... This headache... It feels like my entire soul is being controlled.
"Hahh~..." Taking a deep breath I looked around.
What happened just now? It seems I forgot something important.
Well, maybe it doesn't matter anymore.
** **
Soon, it was my turn. I stood before the crystal. Placed my hand on the crystal and closed my eyes.
Oh lord above, at the very least a rare combat class please.
"Awakening..." I muttered under my breath.
The crystal shone, enveloping me in its blinding light.
Wooosh~
Time slowed as the energy seeped into my body.
I couldn't tell what was happening but these noises... I can't focus.
In that moment, I felt like I was in the middle of a hurricane of energy. My veins pulsed, my senses heightened, and my muscles trembled.
"The sky is dark... So, ominous..."
"Look, it's tribulation... Holy shit!!! This is a legendary death class..."
"This power? It's one of the necromancy classes..." The priest muttered.
A rush of warmth flooded through me as I felt the energy coursing through my body, reshaping my very being. I could feel my cells shifting, my DNA changing, and a strange power awakening within me.
Just then.
[ You have awakened Legendary class: Grave keeper ]
I heard a strange noise inside my head. It was the consciousness of a crystal.
Gravekeeper? I have never heard of such a class.
But legendary? I can feel myself shaking. I can hear my heart beating at a rapid speed.
"Status window..." muttering that, I looked at the blue panel in front of me.

This?
The first thing I noticed was how pitifully weak my stats were. But what are these skills?
Summon graveyard? That alone can summon 18 skeletons and with that godly passive skills, I can kill anything.
Hahahahah... Is this it?
The power of legendary class?
It seems this class is a bit Op for single-target units.
As I read the status window I noticed the world has gone silent. Students, teachers, and officials - they were all staring with a mixture of fear, awe, and fear. Even the priest seemed dumbstruck.
Maybe I wasn't someone important no one came to recruit me. Well, it is what it is.
I will check on the coffin when I return home.
Lastly, it was Ye Chen's turn.
His fingers brushed the crystal gently.
A smirk tugged at the corner of Ye Chen's lips. His eyes narrowed with a sinister gaze.
Suddenly, a bright dark green aura enveloped the area. It was as if the light itself had come alive, pulsating with raw energy.
"What? Another lightning tribulation? It's the second legendary class of necromancy type..."
"Second legendary class? Our Tianhau Academy is gifted..."
"Hmph, this Ye Chen is trash. How can he be qualified to sit at the same table as Senior Brother Huan?"
"Obviously, Senior Brother Huan's necromancy is better than that trash Ye Chen..."
What the heck... Why is everyone talking about me?
It feels like a typical face-slapping scene where Ye Chen will beat me in competition, if I listen to these people and fight Ye Chen.
Damn... I feel numb, could it be that I was struck by lightning too? Damn, I didn't even notice.
"Legendary class: Shadow enslaver..." The priest said knowing very well that Ye Chen was ready for solo leveling.
"Haha, My Ye Chen awakened legendary class... His future is limitless," Su Chenxue laughed.
But the students didn't look at it the same.
"Ye Chen's shadow enslave? Doesn't he have a useless class? That is useless in group fights and useless in solo fights..." One student said.
"Hahaha, this guy is really unlucky. He got a legendary class yet it is a useless one,"
"Hehe, better than a life class," Another student said.
Meanwhile, Young Master Bai looked at Ye Chen with disdain. He was already fuming from the fact that he wasn't the first legendary class.
"This piece of trash actually awakened a legendary class..." Young Master Bai said with a heavy sigh but a sinister smirk soon formed on his lips as he knew this shadow enslaver was a weak class.
