"I wonder what kind of profession this fellow can awaken."
"Have you heard of him? This fellow had basically been the top student in the entire school in every exam during his three years of high school."
"Indeed, with such a terrifying talent, what kind of ridiculous profession can he awaken?"
"But he's an orphan after all. It would be a pity if he changed his class to a class that requires him to burn money!"
..
It was a sunny afternoon, and the school auditorium was filled with deafening noises from time to time.
This was an awakening ceremony that only happened once in a person's life. It was the most important thing in a person's life other than getting married and having children.
This was Yunzhou's No. 3 Experimental High School, which was also the best high school in Yunzhou.
Xu Fan looked at the sparkling Class Change Crystal in front of him and could not help but recall five years ago. He didn't know why, but when he woke up, he had transmigrated to this strange world. This world was no different from the place he used to live in. The country was still the country, and the humans were still the humans. However, there was one thing. This world had [Classes].
It wasn't a class in the traditional sense, but a class that was similar to the one in the game. They could fight monsters, level up, and even evolve and change their classes.
This world was like a game entering reality for him.
As a newcomer, he was treated as an illegal resident and thrown into the orphanage. However, relying on his interest in games and his will to survive, he spent three years devouring all the books in the orphanage. When he entered high school, his grades rose, and his goal was simple: the benefits of his results and a scholarship.
With these, his life would become much more comfortable. Although he could not compare to the young masters of those big families, he could still guarantee that he would not have to worry about food and clothing.
He scored full marks for deciphering the secret realm and mechanism analysis.
He was one of the best commanders in terms of command and theory in actual combat.
In terms of equipment management and maintenance, he had never fallen out of the top three.
Listening to the discussions of the crowd below the stage and listening to the passionate speech of the principal, Xu Fan slowly raised his hand and pressed it on the shining crystal. As expected, a dazzling light flashed, attracting everyone's attention.
The principal, who had high hopes for him, froze, and the audience below the stage began to whisper.
In front of nearly 10,000 people in the school, his occupation was read out loud:
"Congratulations to Xu Fan for awakening the Blacksmith Class. Hope you can make great achievements in your field and contribute to society!"
The voice of the broadcast system was cold, and the atmosphere in the hall was as low as the freezing point. Everyone present, be it the teachers or the students, fell into a state of confusion.
This had never happened before. Logically speaking, this had never happened before.
The type of ability a person awakened should be related to what they were good at. For someone as outstanding as Xu Fan, it was impossible for him to awaken a lifestyle class that was unrelated to him.
Xu Fan was the best student in the best-graduating class in this school! No matter what, it couldn't be a lifestyle class, much less a blacksmith! Not to mention letting him fight, this class had no offensive ability at all!
"This is a little... This is awkward."
"Such a high talent to awaken a blacksmith..."
"If word gets out, people will laugh at us! The top student of the experimental class of Yunzhou No. 3 Middle School made weapons and armor for others."
"Was it possible to increase his offensive ability?"
"It's possible. If you sew a bunch of blades that you made yourself on the sleeves of your clothes, won't you have the offensive ability? Hahahahaha!"
..
"Students, I hope that you will not forget the school motto of our school. There is no such thing as the best profession, only those who don't know how to make good use of their talents."
"Although the treatment of combat jobs is good, you have to know that without the support of lifestyle jobs, we wouldn't have been able to get to where we are today."
The principal said what he should have said, but everyone present knew that combat professions were good. In this world, lifestyle professions were not as popular as combat ones. They could obtain first-tier resources and a large amount of experience. This wasn't something that a lifestyle profession without any combat ability could have.
Everyone thought that Xu Fan would be sad, desperate, and scream. However, as he slowly walked down step by step, the people around him were surprised to discover that this guy had a meaningful smile on his face.
It seemed like he was trying to hold back his laughter, or he was thinking about some grand plan that only he knew.
However, this kid was just a craftsman. He was only slightly more advanced than a Tailor of the same type. What could he do?
But… at this moment, Xu Fan did not feel sad at all. Not only was he not sad, but he was also very happy. Because at this moment, a voice that only he could hear was echoing in his mind.
[Congratulations on your successful awakening to become a blacksmith. You will awaken the hidden profession: Artifact Spirit Summoner, and acquire the relevant skill authority]
[The Artifact Spirit Summoner can generate a corresponding Artifact Spirit for your equipment. The Artifact Spirit will fight for you and be at your disposal.]
[Novice Mission: Build your first weapon in the System Space and obtain your first artifact spirit.]
As the voice slowly dissipated, Xu Fan could not help but be shocked: The golden finger arrived late! He did not transmigrate in vain! Now, the accumulation of three years, all his hard work, was going to use the golden finger to show his grand plan.
As he suppressed the excitement in his heart, he went to his form teacher and said:
"I'm sorry, teacher. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first."
The homeroom teacher who had taught him for three years was filled with regret: "Xu Fan, don't be discouraged. Lifestyle jobs also have their own areas of expertise. As long as you don't give up, you can shine anywhere!!"
Xu Fan nodded the smile on his face still on his face. Discouraged? What's there to be discouraged about?
Let's see what a true hot shot is!
..
This world is very interesting and has all kinds of strange courses. Some allowed you to recognize the types of monsters, while others taught you how to fight in complex terrains.
As an internet-addicted teenager who had transmigrated, he was really not good at learning. However, these things that were similar to the game guide were not difficult for him. He even felt that he might have known too much about this thing, which was why he had awakened a seemingly inexplicable blacksmith.
On the way home, Xu Fan took a detour to the material market and bought a valuable ore.
As for money, he relied on his own work to support his daily living expenses. He had not touched a single cent of the scholarship for the past three years. He had been waiting for this moment!
He had already thought of the first weapon long ago. When he walked down the Awakening Platform, he had already thought of it.
He drew his blade with great pleasure and was as swift as the wind. The length of his blade could change endlessly.
He wanted to make a blade, a Universe Blade.
