“Still… What a pity, he’s only a Forgemaster.”

Looking at Lin Xiu who was gritting his teeth in anger, the nervousness on Instructor Jin’s face flashed and disappeared. He then spoke in a regretful tone.

“It’s too difficult to awaken a Hidden Class. There were a few students in Fuyuan College who missed out on a Hidden Class during the Awakening process.”

“Lin Xiu, don’t blame yourself too much.”

Instructor Jin put on a concerned smile and immediately comforted him.

Lin Xiu did not say anything. He still stood in front of the Divine Stone with a red face like a statue.

He seemed to be immersed in endless sorrow and regret.

Seeing this situation, Ding Shiyu and Wan Zhuoyun, who were below the stage, immediately revealed proud smiles.

“Haha, Shiyu, look at his defeated face. He doesn’t look as calm as before.”

Wan Zhuoyun sneered, as if he had just seen something very funny.

Ding Shiyu’s pretty face also showed a hint of relief. Her red lips parted slightly, “Some people just don’t know their own abilities. It’s just a joke to think that they can make a comeback through the Awakening ceremony.”

Everyone was discussing at once. There was pity, ridicule, pity, and coldness.

How could they know that the root cause of Lin Xiu’s awakening failure was that the great Ding and Wan Families had set up the Soul-Sealing Array in advance.

Even the teaching assistants and lecturers standing on the Awakening Platform did not notice that something was wrong.

Only Elder Gu vaguely felt that this matter was too strange.

He frowned with a straight face and looked around with his slightly turbid eyes, but he did not find anything wrong.

Lin Xiu had caused such a huge phenomenon. What he had Awakened should be some powerful Hidden Class.

In addition to his Dual-Class inheritance, with a little training, his growth speed would definitely surpass most people.

He was clearly a genius who could shock the entire city, but now, under his eyes, he had become extremely mediocre.

It was difficult for Elder Gu not to forget the disadvantages. Lin Xiu’s Awakening failure was very likely caused by someone secretly!

However, he did not have any evidence at the moment. In addition, the other party had done it very cleanly. Even if he wanted to pursue the matter, he could not find anyone now.

Elder Gu’s expression softened slightly. He turned his head to look at Lin Xiu, who was still standing in front of the Divine Stone with a stiff expression, and sighed slightly.

“I wonder who this little guy offended to be deprived of the right to awaken a Special Class.”

Elder Gu sighed in his heart. He took two steps forward and patted the other party’s shoulder with his slightly dry hand.

“Don’t be too sad. What you need to do now is to try your best to link your two Classes together. Perhaps it will produce a miraculous effect.”

Elder Gu did not say anything else after giving his opinion. However, he was not in the mood to stay here anymore, so he immediately walked down the stage.

Anyway, the Awakening Divine Stone had already been activated. His existence was just to prop up the Fuyuan Academy.

“Elder Gu, you…”

Seeing that the other party was about to leave, Instructor Jin immediately tried to persuade him to stay.

However, the other party’s back did not have any intention of stopping. He walked off the stage without waiting for him to finish.

Being ignored by Elder Gu, Instructor Jin felt a little depressed. He immediately turned around and said coldly to Lin Xiu, “What are you still doing here? Assistant, take him away.”

Soon, the assistant who was standing by the side immediately went forward and wanted to pull Lin Xiu away.

However, before he could extend his hand, he was immediately scared away by Lin Xiu’s cold gaze.

The other party’s eyes were red, like an injured beast, and his entire body was filled with violent emotions.

Although Lin Xiu was just a rookie who had just awakened his Class, for some reason, the emotions he exuded made the assistant not dare to come forward for a moment.

“You don’t have to worry about it. I can leave on my own,” Lin Xiu said in a low voice. Then, he took a deep look at Instructor Jin and quickly walked down the stage, disappearing into the crowd.

Jin Zhengmin’s heart tightened when he saw Lin Xiu’s inexplicable gaze.

Even after the other party left, he still felt a chill in his heart.

“That brat, could it be that he has seen through some clues?”

Jin Zhengmin was puzzled.

“Forget it, so what if he finds out? He’s just an Unspecialized and a Forgemaster. He’s basically just a blacksmith. I don’t think he can cause any trouble!”

Looking at the names of the remaining students on the list, Jin Zhengmin sorted out his emotions and continued the unfinished awakening ceremony.

In the crowd, Lin Xiu had already returned to his seat. His expression was indifferent, making it impossible for people to see through his emotions.

The surrounding people were still curious about Lin Xiu at first, but it was obvious that the other party had maintained a poker face. After a while, they lost their patience.

No matter what kind of emotions Lin Xiu had, they all felt that it was natural.

After all, it was normal for one to go crazy after falling from heaven to dust.

However, how could they know that Lin Xiu, who was at the back of the group, was in a very good mood at this moment?

Even though he was secretly tricked by someone, he still successfully awakened a Special Class in the end. This kind of encounter of blessing in disguise made Lin Xiu very happy.

However, the most important thing now was to familiarize himself with the two Awakened Classes as soon as possible so that he could prepare for the Catacombs adventure that would begin soon.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiu immediately mobilized his mind and called out the System panel hidden in his mind.

[Name: Lin Xiu]

[Awakened Class: Combat type — Unspecialized, Special type — Divine Forgemaster.]

[Level: Level 1, Experience (0/100), First Transition]

[Attack: 24 points]

[Defense: 5 points]

[HP: 180]

[Attribute: Strength 8 points. Affects stamina, weight, attack, etc.]

[Agility: 8 points. Affects critical hit, physical defense, evasion, etc.]

[Spirit: 6 points. Affects magic defense, reaction speed, magic attack, etc.]

[Constitution: 8 points. Affects HP and resistance, endurance, etc.]

…

Looking at the detailed personal attributes in front of him, Lin Xiu could be considered to have a basic understanding of his own attributes.

He subconsciously looked at the people around him and found that they were staring ahead, as if they were also interacting with the System.

“Let’s take a look at the characteristics of the Unspecialized Class,” Lin Xiu subconsciously said. He immediately scrolled down the page and found the Class attribute column.

[First Class: Unspecialized]

[Class Talent: (C-grade Mastery) All common skills acquired +1]

[Prerequisite skill: (Unspecialized) Can learn all common skills of all Classes. Maximum of 20 skills mastered]

[Basic Skill 1: (Camouflage) Able to use all Class equipment]

[Basic Skill 2: (The Doctrine of the Middle Way) Critical damage -10%, critical resistance +15%]

[Class evaluation: Unspecialized characters have a huge advantage in the early stages. Even most Special Classes can’t fight them before level 20, but that’s all.]

Looking at the Class evaluation at the end of the System panel, Lin Xiu immediately felt like he did not know whether to laugh or cry.

This inborn System was good in every aspect, but it had a poisonous tongue.
