"What in the world? This is definitely a bug", Jake muttered inside his mind.
For an average human, the stat values would be 10 but Jake's stats are double and his intelligence seemed triple than average.
Health points are basically the multiplication of strength and stamina.
Energy stored will be the addition of strength and stamina, whereas the recovery rate is half of INT.
No one would have these stats in the human race. It could be possible in the Angel race but not for the races that are considered lesser races.
Jake wondered that it could be because of his advanced race but there was no way he could verify that.
He was indeed wanted to know the special about his advances. So he quickly checked his race, class, and skill.

[High Human: The high Human race is considered the pinnacle of the human race. They are considered to be perfect human origin. A human can improve their race by integrating other species' bloodlines and such a High Human has only a human aspect which is considered weak. They can further develop with the help of other species.
High humans have a 125% comprehensibility rate, which means they can understand an extra 25%, which makes them learn anything faster. They earn 10% extra reputation when they complete a deed in human territories.]
[Huntsman, X-Class: Huntsman are often confused with hunters or archers which share some similar characteristics but are quite different. Huntsman can use bow and arrow, and short swords as their weapons. Some use daggers but mostly on hunted animals to retrieve resources from the dead animal.
Huntsman has a low probability of taming a wild animal. They prefer cubs raised in villages to those found in the wild. This is different from hunters who have high taming power.
The archery skills are defined as average which is way lower than archers and hunters.
The best thing about Huntsman is their close-range attack capability and tracking. In comparison to archers and hunters who have low close-range fighting capacity, Huntsman doesn't lack in that. Moreover, Huntsman is top in tracking skill, when compared to any other class.
Only mages who use tracking spells can top them but most of these spells can only track things to a general area.
Depending on class grade, the abilities of Huntsman differ. Class starting from lowest to highest in order is F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS.
These are considered as Mortal classes and above them are Immortal Classes.
An X-Class is defined as Semi-Immortal, which means that it is above mortal but not an Immortal Class. Any class above X-Class is not possible to obtain in mortal realms.
To explain further, if an SSS-Class Huntsman requires 10 EP to use a Single Flame Arrows, an X-Class Huntsman can release Double Flame Arrows at a total cost of 5 EP.]
[Marksmanship, X-Rank: This skill helps to accurately hit a target either stationary or moving. This depends on the rank of the skill.
X-Rank Marksmanship can accurately hit a stationary target at a range of 5,000m but if the person can't see the target it would be a waste. For the moving target, the range was reduced to 1,000m. In any case, there is no cool-down period.
With X-class profession combined with X-rank of the skill, the range increased to 10,000m and 3000m respectively.]
[Spectral Eye, X-Rank: This skill as the name suggests helps the person to view things beyond normal person. One can use the spectral eye to view energies around them.
X-Rank helps to view the path of energy flow, which lower ranks can't see. Like SS and SSS ranks, one can differentiate the energies.
With X-class profession, this skill can see through high-grade illusions and energies beyond shielded structures. There is no cool-down for this rank.]

'One thing was over.'
As Jake exited the room, the teacher came forward and congratulated everyone, "Congrats on a successful awakening. Please join the group on the school grounds and wait there until the ceremony."
By evening everyone's awakening had been completed and every student was gathered in the school grounds.
The headmaster of the school walked up to the podium and spoke, "Congratulations everyone, no student failed to awaken a class. After calculation, out of 1358 students, 787 students awakened F-Class and E-Class, 400 students awakened D-Class and C-Class, and 145 students awakened B-Class, whereas 20 of the remaining awakened A-Class."
"I congratulate you for your successful awakening. Before you leave we should especially congratulate the remaining six."
"Five of them awakened S-Class and for the first time in school history reached those numbers of S-Class awakeners."
"The proudest moment of this school year is that we have an SS-Class awakener which never happened before neither in our school nor in this district."
"Let me welcome the student, James Davidson, onto the stage and give him a big round of applause."
James walked up to the platform as if he were the god, with his nose up and chest puffed, taking long strides.
'He is walking in the air; well he does have the right to do so, for now, hehehe.'
Some may sneer at him for making a show like that but he has every right to do so.
Every awakened would have a profession or class or job determined by their status. This doesn't mean they can't dive into other professions but there are limitations.
The one they got while awakening would be the one with the greatest potential.
Each such profession's grade starts from F to SSS in increasing order of potential.
The higher your potential, the faster you can level up your skills or spells that have levels. Anyone can get a skill or learn a spell from skill/spell books or scrolls. The problem is the upgrading of them.
There are skill upgrade stones that can level them up, and also a blank upgrade stone which is very rare. Yes, an upgrade stone only can upgrade a certain skill or spell or comes with certain other restrictions like the user power level.
Only a blank upgrade stone can bypass all these restrictions as they can upgrade anything that can be upgraded. Normal upgrade stones are rare to find and very costly. If one doesn't have huge wealth to back them up or luck, one can forget to get their hands on these stones and can forget that the blank upgrade stones exist.
As an SS-Class awakener, James Davidson doesn't need too much to depend on these stones as his skills and spells will increase their potency much faster than others.
An awakener can learn any number of skills or spells as they wish, there are no restrictions. The problem is that no one can easily upgrade them, so many choose few and concentrate on these few. The few who don't have to think about these problems are high-class awakeners. They would get a lot of ammunition in their arsenal.
In addition to these benefits, there is another benefit that makes awakeners cry.
The awakeners just don't level up but also rank up every few levels. Every time their rank increases, one would get a class-appropriate skill to go along with it.
This means if an F-Class awakener ranks up, he would get a free F-Rank skill for their profession, and when an S-Class awakener ranks up he would get an S-Rank skill.
The blank upgrade stone or a class upgrade stone is the solution for the lesser class awakeners.
The class upgrade stone can upgrade your class but this comes with the same restriction as skill/spell upgrade stones. They are bound to their classes, whereas a blank upgrade stone doesn't.
A blank upgrade stone can essentially upgrade anything, so they are always in high demand and very pricey.
The thing here is that anyone who got their hands on a blank upgrade stone would upgrade their class instead of skills or spells. This is beneficial as every rank up from then onwards would give the awakener a skill of the upgraded class.
The main restriction on upgrade stones is that one can only upgrade their skills or spells or class till S-Rank. As of now, no one can upgrade to SS. No one knows the reason but many speculate that the increasing amount of stone required for each upgrade is what hinders it.
The number of stones required to upgrade from F to E is only one but from E to D is three. To reach C, one needs nine more stones. This keeps on increasing.
To sum it up, for one to reach C from F, they need thirteen stones in total and there are a lot of people who start at F. So the stones required to satisfy the demand are way beyond count. Most who find them either store them for their young generations or use them for themselves.
Very few sell them. No one would even declare that they got their hands on them. A lot of betrayals and bloodshed followed whenever these stones surfaced.
This is why everyone craves for better awakening.
This is the reason for James' pompous face. He is already a few steps ahead of his batch mates.
The headmaster congratulated the six and even gave them a few items as gifts before sending them off.
