"Today is the day for your class to undergo Professional Awakening!"
"Remember, after entering the Newbie Village, everyone will be enveloped by the game rules and become players. A small number of people will awaken a profession!
All awakened professionals will receive rewards from the Galaxy Federation!
The higher the profession level and rarity, the greater the reward!"
"The Newbie equipment issued by the school only has basic defense. Even the weakest monsters can break through it! Never be careless!"
"This time, you will have three days in the Newbie Village. Those who survive after three days and whose level and profession rank high will receive generous rewards!"
"Remember, you are only being integrated into the game rules; you are not playing a game. You will truly die and cannot be revived!"
… … … …
… … … …
On Long Teng Star, outside the Apocalypse Rift guarded by Seventh High School in Hai Bei City, an old man in a fiery red robe spoke solemnly.
He looked expectantly at the more than three thousand students below, all dressed in identical Newbie outfits.
He was Principal Zheng Yun, the principal of Seventh High School in Hai Bei City, A-level 49 Flame Mage!
Upon hearing his words, all three thousand-plus students were incredibly excited.
Among the crowd, a handsome young man's eyes also brightened slightly.
"Professional Awakening, huh? I can't believe I was Reborn on this day!"
The young man, Ling Yan, was a Reborn person. In his previous Life, he awakened the unique profession: Passive Plunderer!
It could Plunder all passive abilities from all living beings, characters, and so on!
However, the success rate of Plunder was extremely low!
Thus, relying on this seemingly heaven-defying but practically useless profession, even until his Death, he only managed to Plunder a rare passive ability, Rebirth, from a ghost-type monster!
In other words, in his previous Life, he essentially had no profession.
He was ambushed by a schemer during a battle and died instantly.
Believing he was dead for sure, he unexpectedly Reborn on this day, when he was fifteen and professions were activated.
"I just wonder if I can still awaken as a Passive Plunderer in this Life?
If so, I'm afraid I'll waste my entire Life like in my previous one!"
Ling Yan sighed helplessly.
As soon as he awakened this seemingly heaven-defying unique profession, it immediately alarmed the old monsters of the Galaxy Federation.
There were even big shots, levels reaching several hundred, who wanted to take Ling Yan as a disciple.
Unfortunately, they were stunned when they realized that the success rate of Plundering passive abilities was almost zero, and the higher the level and rarity of the passive ability, the lower the probability.
He awakened for a full ten years! Under the guidance of dispatched sparring partners, he spent ten years killing low-level monsters, almost hundreds of millions of them.
Yet, he couldn't even copy the most useless passive ability.
Ultimately, Ling Yan was completely abandoned.
Who would have thought that Ling Yan would later have a stroke of luck and, while leveling up by himself, copied a rare passive ability, Rebirth, from a ghost-type monster?
Unfortunately, before he could report it and obtain a large amount of resources, he was killed by a schemer.
"Buzz!!!"
Just as Ling Yan was reminiscing, the huge spatial rift in front suddenly emitted a wave of fluctuations.
"Ding… This year's Newbie Village has opened! Non-players who are fifteen years old and above, please enter!"
At the same time, a grand voice spread throughout the entire square.
"Everyone, enter the Apocalypse Rift!"
Principal Principal Zheng Yun gave a low shout and spoke directly.
As soon as he spoke, all the students, without hesitation, rushed towards the spatial rift in front of them.
Ling Yan did the same!
… … … …
"Buzz!!!"
With a flash of white light.
Ling Yan instantly found himself on a grassland.
Around him were students from their school.
This place was called Apocalypse Continent, boundless and endless, with countless Newbie Villages suspended above the continent!
Each Apocalypse Rift led to a Newbie Village.
Each Newbie Village had dozens of similar monster zones.
Therefore, there was no need to worry about competing for monsters with people from other schools.
Of course, once one's level reached Lv10 or above, they could leave the Newbie Village and descend onto the true Apocalypse Continent!
At that time, that would be the real battlefield.
Of course, in addition to the Apocalypse Rift leading to the Apocalypse Continent, there were many other rifts leading to different dungeons.
The prerequisite was to first reach the corresponding level and conditions.
"Buzz!!!!"
However, at this moment, a dazzling light suddenly burst forth from a student nearby.
Ling Yan knew who this student was without even looking.
"Hiss, it's Zhou Tong. What kind of light is this? Did he awaken as a Light Mage?"
"It could also be a Light Holy Knight!"
"As long as it's light-based, that's enough. Any light-based profession is at least B-level or above.
I didn't expect our Seven Middle School to produce a B-level or above professional!"
"This time, the principal will probably wake up laughing!"
… … … … … …
In an instant, everyone around exclaimed.
Ling Yan, however, didn't pay much attention. This Zhou Tong awakened as a Light Holy Knight and was incredibly arrogant.
Therefore, he ran to the Wind Wolf Nest, which was at least Level 6, when he was only Level 5, and was eventually surrounded by a dozen Level 6 Wind Wolves and bitten to Death.
An A-level professional didn't even survive the initial three days in the Newbie Village. The principal, upon learning of this, was so angry that he was hospitalized for more than ten days before recovering.
One must know that an A-level professional, once out of the Newbie Village, equipped with the Federation's rewarded gear and Packages skills, would have a combat power at least three times that of a non-professional of the same level!
In the entire Hai Bei City, an A-level professional might not appear even once every two or three years.
"Ding! Congratulations, player, for awakening the unique profession: Child of Luck!"
However, at this moment, a notification sound directly entered Ling Yan's mind!
Ling Yan instantly froze.
"Child of Luck? My profession in this Life has changed? And it's also a unique profession?"
Ling Yan immediately became excited.
In this Life, he finally didn't have to use that accumulated Passive Plunderer profession, and just by the name, it sounded awesome. Child of Luck, wasn't that invincible luck?
He just didn't know if this profession was powerful now. It was a unique profession after all. In this world, since human history was recorded, these Apocalypse Rifts have existed.
However, throughout tens of thousands of years of history, from ancient times to the present, Ling Yan's unique profession was the only one that had ever appeared!
This was also why, in his previous Life, Ling Yan was directly noticed by many big shots of the Galaxy Federation, who governed thousands or even tens of thousands of Life planets, and they wanted to take him as a disciple.
Unfortunately, due to the profession's ridiculously low success rate, he was eventually completely abandoned.
After all, if even the lowest-level passive ability couldn't be copied after killing hundreds of millions of monsters, wouldn't it take hundreds of billions or even trillions of monsters to copy a high-level passive ability, and even then, it might not be possible?
