“Natural Element, Earth Element Ability! Talent Level S!”
This was the second S-grade talent of the entire event, naturally drawing the attention of the crowd.
Everyone’s focus turned to the Awakening Platform, where a robust young man, about two meters tall, stood. Wearing a black short-sleeved shirt with “Big Fatty Barbecue” printed on it, he looked somewhat dazed for a moment before a look of joy finally appeared on his face.
He seemed quite surprised by the result, momentarily at a loss, unsure of what to do.
“Damn, how is it someone from No. 47 High School? That’s a garbage school. They didn’t even have a single B-grade talent last year. They really hit the jackpot this year.”
“Isn’t that the barbecue guy from Big Fatty Barbecue? This is hilarious. Even if he awakened a Natural Element ability, it’s useless if his family is poor. Look at him, frozen on the platform, not even moving. With such poor mental fortitude, can he even kill Monster Beasts?”
“Exactly, the country’s money doesn’t grow on trees! Only those who grow into their potential are called geniuses. Right now? Hah…”
“An S-grade talent is wasted on him. It should’ve been mine.”
Si Junni listened to the sour, envious remarks from her classmates around her and deliberately spoke up, “Who knocked over the vinegar jar? It’s so sour here.”
Even if Natural Element Awakened individuals lack resources, an S-grade Awakened would never be short of them. It was obvious to anyone with common sense that this person, regardless of his background, would become a target for various factions to compete over.
How many S-grade talents can a single city produce?
“Who the hell are you to…”
“Mind your own business, or you’ll fail your Awakening!”
Si Junni’s words were too impactful. Awakening was everyone’s obsession at the moment, and even a baseless, nonsensical statement like this was something no one dared to defy.
After all, this Awakening… was far too important, and this curse was far too malicious.
“No. 1 High School, No. 938, Si Junni!”
Hearing her name, Si Junni felt a slight surge of excitement as she jogged up to the platform.
Her confident and lively demeanor naturally caught the attention of the important figures on the stage.
“This young lady has a good temperament. If she successfully awakens, even if her talent is low, I’ll take her in.”
“Old Zheng, it seems we’re fated. I’ve taken a liking to this young lady too. Her confident attitude is quite good.”
“You two should take a break. She hasn’t even awakened yet, and you’re already fighting over her.”
“If you don’t want her, then don’t interfere with what we’re saying.”
“I never said I didn’t want her…”
“Stop arguing! The Awakening Orb is glowing! She’s successfully awakened! We just don’t know what type it’ll be!”
After stepping onto the platform, Si Junni didn’t hesitate for long. She walked directly under the Awakening Orb and instantly felt a warm sensation.
It was even more comfortable than taking Fugui’s Constitution Pills in the morning. It felt as though all the meridians, bones, flesh, and blood in her body were being cleansed by Spiritual Energy, not only removing all impurities but also reshaping and strengthening them!
The entire process was completely painless, and she could even feel the changes in her body in great detail.
This feeling was truly mystical. Before stepping onto the platform, Si Junni had been thinking about silently chanting “time and space” in her mind, but once she was actually here, she couldn’t focus on anything at all.
Her mind was completely empty, recalling every detail of her life from birth until now.Learning skills with Master on the mountain, sleeping on the ground with the sky as a blanket alongside animals, and recalling the heart-wrenching pain when Master passed away…
Then, returning to the Si family, doing everything possible to survive by donating to good causes, rushing through every street and alley of the city day after day…
Si Junni only felt the light from the Awakening Orb above her growing brighter and brighter, so bright that even with her eyes closed, it felt unbearably dazzling.
“This is…”
The dignitaries on the stage noticed the anomaly during Si Junni’s Awakening and promptly notified the staff member holding the Awakening Instrument Panel.
The staff member, being a professional, understood instantly! With slightly trembling fingers, they quickly disconnected the Awakening Orb from the instrument.
This way, although it wouldn’t interrupt Si Junni’s Awakening, it would cause the light to fade rapidly.
The dignitaries on the stage also stopped their banter and jokes, sharpening their focus and activating their special abilities to ensure no one with ill intentions could infiltrate the Awakening Ceremony.
Everyone was highly tense, their slightly clenched fists and moist eyes revealing the turbulent emotions beneath their calm exteriors.
After completing her Awakening, Si Junni stood frozen in place.
Dazedly, she looked up at the Awakening Orb directly above her. “Are you fucking kidding me?”
Good news: she had Awakened! And her Talent Level wasn’t low!
Bad news…
“Si Junni, Support Healing Type, S-Class!”
The staff member shouted excitedly, and immediately, thunderous applause erupted throughout the venue. The applause was even more enthusiastic than it had been for the two-meter-tall Earth Element burly man and the genius Lu Yu from First High!
The main reason was that Pure Healing Type Awakeners were incredibly rare!
To this day, a hundred years into the New Era, there have been fewer than a thousand Pure Healing Type Awakeners in total!
The reason Healing-type Awakeners are so precious is their indispensable role in teams. Currently, humanity has Eight Defense Lines and Four Checkpoints, each with fewer than ten Support Healing Type Awakeners.
In fact, elements like Water, Wood, Light, and even some Plant or Beast Transformation Elements possess certain recovery or Healing Abilities.
But compared to Healing-type Awakeners… there’s just no comparison!
Healing Awakeners can quickly restore the injured, bringing them back to Peak Condition in a short time and allowing them to rejoin the fight.
All Support Healing Type Awakeners, whether low-tier or high-tier, are equally sought after!
Support Healing Type Awakeners can even learn the “Resurrection” skill in the later stages. Unlike in games, death in reality is final.
Everyone wants a Healing powerhouse by their side!
Moreover, this Si Junni… she wasn’t just S-Class!
As for how far she had truly reached, no one knew yet. She would need to go to a special location for more detailed testing. This matter wasn’t something to be publicized just yet.
Everyone present was thrilled, including Li Yanyan and the homeroom teacher, who had clashed with Si Junni, as well as her classmates, with whom she had never gotten along well.
Healing Awakeners are undoubtedly humanity’s hope!
The principal of First High was grinning from ear to ear! This year’s students from First High were truly impressive!
Two S-Class and three A-Class Awakeners! With five students possessing High-Level Talents, it was another year of taking the lead!
In short, to sum it all up…Everyone present, including the commander, was happy and excited.
Only Si Junni wore an expression as if struck by lightning, unable to bear believing the reality before her…
