1 I've Awakened a Useless Talent?

Myriad Race Calendar, year 328.

Three hundred years ago, the Gods tore apart time and space, and the age of the myriad races came.

At the same time, countless demonic insects and fierce beasts attacked, and the human world was on the verge of destruction.

The enemy had seized the sky, the islands, and the once glorious cities.

The living space of the human race was constantly being compressed, and it was almost to the point of extinction.

However, as the crisis intensified, mankind also obtained a turn for the better.

The profession known as "the Awakened" began to appear among humans.

According to the research of scientists, the talents awakened by humans all came from online games and single-player games before the age of the myriad races.

According to the strength of each talent, they were divided into eight grades, from E to SSS.

It had been 300 years since the first Awakened had awakened his ability.

The students of the later times could only catch a glimpse of the situation a hundred years ago through history books.

Su Chen slowly let out a breath and murmured to himself about the awakening assembly that was about to begin.

"I heard that the awakening ceremony for Class E02's students has begun. Let's go and take a look!"

Hearing the discussion of others, Su Chen slowly put down the thick history book in his hand and got up, glancing at the person who had just spoken.

They were two scantily dressed female students, and their words were filled with uncontrollable excitement.

After class E02, it would be class E03's turn, which Su Chen was in.

For every student who was about to awaken their talents, excitement was inevitable.

If one could awaken a powerful talent, the person would be able to take off immediately.

No matter how dire their straits had been before, no matter how many people had been hostile to them, as long as they could awaken a powerful talent today, all the direness and hostility would be gone.

However, opportunities came with danger.

Since there was a chance of awakening a powerful talent, it naturally meant that there was a chance of awakening a useless one.

In the past 300 years, countless Awakened had awakened talents that were of little value.

For example, talents that allowed d one to make lights light up under the sun, release black mist when there is no moon, make others unable to hear one's footsteps as long as one's eyes were closed, and so on.

Usually, the outcome of these useless Awakenened was that they would be demoted to the basic level to do the dirty and tiring work that most people looked down on.

"Did you hear that? Only the class monitor of class E02 awakened a talent! And it's just a useless talent! Does it have to be so scary?!"

"Sigh, it can't be helped. The probability of ordinary students awakening a talent is pitifully low, let alone awakening a high-grade talent. I'm afraid it's impossible for one to appear in our school..."

The people who passed by him were talking about the awakening anxiously.

The students of class E02 were almost completely annihilated, and it seemed to cast a shadow over everyone.

According to the statistics of the Alliance's Investigation Bureau, people who could awaken talents were usually those with excellent physical talent.

Usually, out of a hundred people, only ten could awaken their talent.

The remaining 90 people were destined to only play supporting roles, protected by others.

However, the slightly better news was that 10% was not a small percentage as opposed to the entire human population.

Tens of millions of people were still able to awaken their talents.

However, the vast majority would only awaken a useless E or D-grade talent.

Generally speaking, only those who had awakened talents of the C-grade and above were useful in the battles with fierce beasts.

Among these tens of millions of Awakened, the probability of awakening a talent above the C-grade was only a pitiful 1%!

More than half of the planet had been occupied by fierce beasts, yet the probability of humans awakening self-preserving talents was extremely low.

This also made the birth of Awakened extremely precious.

Listening to the conversation between the two juniors, Su Chen also subconsciously became nervous.

"I wonder what kind of talent I can awaken..."

To be honest, he had never been worried about it. After all, even if he couldn't awaken a talent, would he not be able to live?

That being said, it was every boy's dream to obtain a powerful talent and defeat the invading beasts, being the hero of the planet.

As a student, Su Chen was naturally no exception.

Therefore, even though he looked indifferent, he subconsciously quickened his pace.

The junior brothers and sisters that he brushed shoulders with still had naive smiles on their faces, as well as beautiful visions for the future.

However, everyone who was walking in the same direction as Su Chen, going to the awakening conference room, felt their bodies getting heavier as they got closer to their destination.

There were about 500 students from Binhai City First High who were participating in the awakening today.

Before they stepped into the conference room, they were either confident or hopeful.

That, or they were constantly praying in their hearts that they could awaken a good talent.

The noise kept getting further and further away, and when they reached the door of the awakening conference room, the sound was almost completely gone.

The atmosphere at the scene was unusually oppressive.

Everyone stared nervously at the center of the conference room, at the student who had a nervous expression on his face.

"The last student of class E02, Zhang Song, awakening failed!" The teacher's voice was like the Grim Reaper's scythe that cut off Zhang Song's head.

The people who were watching and waiting at the scene also let out exclamations of fear and surprise.

"There are 40 students in class E02, but only one person has awakened a talent!"

"This probability is just scary. I'm really scared. I suddenly don't want to take the awakening test anymore!"

"The sports representative of class E02 is so strong, but he still failed to awaken. I just don't understand!"

The chaotic discussion made Su Chen's mood become impetuous.

Even though he kept telling himself that it didn't matter, he couldn't help but gulp when he saw the low success rate.

"The test for the 40 students of class E02 has ended. Class E03, please line up for the assessment!" The teacher waved his "scythe" again and scanned the students of Class E03. Then he pressed the "scythe" against Su Chen's head.

Class E03's awakening assessment was carried out in a tense atmosphere.

"Li Jia Jun, awakening failed!"

"Meng Yingxin, awakening failed!"

"Zhang Yulong, awakening failed!"

...

One after another, the sounds of awakening failures were like scythes stained with blood, harvesting heads one after another.

One by one, the students in front of the line stepped into the assessment area, then left with their shoulders drooped.

When there was no one left in front of Su Chen, he finally felt great pressure.

His eyes were fixed on the person undergoing the test. Before this, there had not been a successful awakening.

However, to a certain extent, it was not a bad thing.

"If there's no one who has successfully awakened before me, then maybe I..."

At this moment, the teacher's voice unexpectedly raised by two pitches, and there seemed to be a trace of excitement in it, "Xu Junyi has awakened an A-grade game talent, Kyo Kusanagi's Flames!"

In an instant, the surrounding students 'gazes were all attracted!

Even the teacher's eyes were filled with fanaticism!

The A-grade game talent, Kyo Kusanagi's Flames! It was the fire talent of the main character in the King of Fighters game!

After awakening this talent, the person could control fire like Kyo Kusanagi from the King of Fighters, at will!

Furthermore, as the martial artist grew, the flame ability obtained would also grow along with him!

It could even be said that as long as a person with an A-grade talent could grow, they would definitely be the main force of mankind's resistance against the fierce beasts!

This was undoubtedly the best tonic for the current depressed situation.

The students were really happy for the student with an A-grade talent.

Countless envious gazes and exclamations flew by.

Even the testing teacher was not in the mood to continue.

Even though there were 40 students in the previous class, only one E-grade skill had been awakened, and it was the useless skill of Mario's Jump.

Even if no one else awakened a talent later on, the teacher already felt that it was enough!

The A-grade talent was enough to make the entire school at ease!

In less than five minutes, the person who awakened the A-grade talent was taken away.

"Next, Su Chen," There was a hint of excitement in the teacher's words, but it had nothing to do with Su Chen.

"It's okay. There's already an A-grade talent awakened. You don't have to feel any pressure at all!" The teacher smiled happily and even subconsciously glanced at the people in line.

It seemed that for him, there was no need to test the students after at all. Having one A-grade talent was completely enough!

"Oh my God, to think there's someone with an A-grade talent in our class! This is too exaggerated!"

"I suddenly feel very proud! The other classes were completely annihilated, but our class has an A-grade talent!"

"Oh my God, Xu Junyi from class E03 is so handsome! A-grade talent, it's so strong!"

The teacher's voice sounded again in the midst of everyone's chaotic discussion, "Yo, there's actually another one! Su Chen, D-grade talent, Monopoly. "
