“It’s so fast!”
“That’s some amazing sword control!”
The wind whistled, and the sword turned into a golden-red flash as it flew.
The students who passed by all had envious looks on their faces as they cried out in surprise.
In the blink of an eye, the sword flew over Moss and Alan’s heads, and the wind pressure caused them to feel a chill on their scalps.
“Wow.”
Alan, who was standing beside Moss, had a gloomy expression. Seeing Cullen flaunting his might made Alan feel disgusted. Moss had an unfriendly expression as well.
Cullen demonstrated his power to both himself and Alan on the opposite altar. The golden-red sword flew past the heads of both him and Alan before returning to Cullen’s hands.
Then, Moss saw Cullen on the altar shake his head as if he was provoking him. Only then did he walk down.
Moss narrowed his eyes slightly. He understood Cullen’s meaning. It seemed that Cullen was planning to continue to cause trouble for him and Alan in the future.
Fortunately, he had obtained the Unlimited Class Evolution System now, allowing Knights to evolve to God-level classes. The system’s strength was not something an ordinary Swordmaster could compare to.
If he had only awakened to become an ordinary Knight, then he would be genuinely powerless to stop Cullen. In this world, the strength of one’s job class is everything that matters.
Just as Moss was thinking about dealing with Cullen, the teacher on Altar No. 4 called out Moss’s name.
“Grade two, class two, Moss!”
Moss came back to his senses and walked out of the line.
Behind him, the worried Alan looked on with a hesitant expression, as if he wanted to call out to him, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
Moss walked towards Altar No. 4 and past the line of students.
When he passed by, the surrounding people were slightly stunned and then subconsciously looked at the position of his hand. After seeing that there was nothing there, they all shook their heads slightly and whispered to the people beside them.
“Look, Moss did not bring a scroll. I guess he is just going to change his class to a Knight.”
“Sigh, what’s the use of studying hard? In the end, job class is still the most important. In the future, a Knight can only be a guard at best.”
“A Knight is too weak. In battle, he will only be cannon fodder. Nowadays, there is no place for a Knight in a team.
“A prodigy fell before he could rise.”
“Moss’ family has been like that all his life. I have never seen a Knight live a good life.”
...
No matter if it was curiosity or ridicule, everyone felt sorry for Moss, and none of them were optimistic.
Moss’ ears could not help but be filled with all kinds of voices. However, he ignored the discussions of others. These discussions would never affect him because he knew that everyone would be shocked when he proved his strength. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢
At that time, all the voices talking about him now would become praises and exclamations. Amidst the discussions, Moss walked up to the altar.
After the teacher confirmed Moss’s identity, he signaled Moss to enter the class changing magic array.
Moss stood in the magic array according to the instructions. It emitted a dazzling light. Moss felt a magical force pass through to his entire body. Then, a panel appeared in front of him.
“Class Awakening successful!
“No specific class scroll detected. Knight class has been awakened by default.
“Congratulations on awakening Knight class.
“Congratulations on obtaining the initial skills, Heavy Strike and Shield.
“Heavy Strike: A strike that gathers all the power in your body. Cooldown: 5 seconds.
“Shield: Summons a half-body-sized energy shield. It can block a small amount of damage. Cooldown: 10 seconds.”
The text on the interface ended. Moss suddenly felt that something had changed in his body. A strange power was circulating within.
The Unlimited Class Evolution System’s voice sounded again in Moss’s mind.
Ding!
“Host’s awakened class is Knight.
“Knight potential test: Infinite.
“Evolving Knight class.
“Knight has completed its first evolution. Knight class has evolved into Guardian Knight.
“Guardian Knight is an Excellent-level class. Upon mission completion, it can evolve into the next level class.
“Current mission: Kill 100 monsters below Level 10, completed: 0/100.”
Hearing the system’s voice, Moss understood. It seemed that if he wanted to evolve the Knight class into God-level ultimately, he would need to complete the system’s missions continuously.
He didn’t know what kind of surprise the evolution of the Guardian Knight class would bring him.
“Guardian Knight: A class born from the wishes of humans. It has the duty of protecting humans and has an unbeatable characteristic.
“Initial skill, Heavy Strike, evolved into Explosive Heavy Strike.
“Acquired initial skill: Explosive Heavy Strike.
“Explosive Heavy Strike: A strike that brings out five times the strength of the user. Cooldown time: 2 seconds.
“Initial skill, Shield evolved into Guardian’s Shield.
“Acquired initial skill: Guardian’s Shield.
“Guardian’s Shield: a shield that possesses the Guardian’s will. It can withstand an attack that is ten times the user’s strength or equivalent damage. Cooldown: 1 second.
A look of surprise flashed across Moss’s eyes.
He had initially been worried that the upgrade would not be significant enough to make an impact,?but now that he saw the new initial skill, his heart was ultimately at ease.
The system had brought a massive upgrade to the Knight Class! With such skills, even a Swordmaster would not compete with him!
Just as Moss’ heart was burning with excitement, the system’s voice continued to ring out further.
“Congratulations! You have obtained the Guardian Knight special talent: Guardian Will!
“Guardian Will: A talent born from the desire to protect humans. Allows the wielder to become stronger as the battle progresses. After every three minutes of battle, the wielder’s attack and defense will increase by 5%, with a maximum increase of 100%.”
This caused Moss to widen his eyes.
The first two evolved initial skills surprised him, but the talent of Guardian Will brought shock. This talent was too powerful. It could increase one’s strength over time during battle.
Moss could still continuously increase his strength should he meet an opponent whose strength was equal or slightly lower than him. Opponents with a lousy mentality might give up on the battle.
Moss could affirm that the early stage of the Guardian Knight class was more robust than all the known early stage classes!
Just as Moss’ thoughts were running wild on the altar, the students below began to discuss among themselves again.
