"According to historical records, in the past few decades, there have been five people who had awakened special classes…"
At this moment, the entire campus was silent. Everyone could not help but hold their breaths and widen their eyes as they listened to the principal's words.
Chen Feng had even stolen Leng Ruzhi's thunder.
Chen Feng did not seek the limelight and felt uncomfortable in it. He merely wanted to be a slow developer in this world.
Seemingly having failed to notice Chen Feng's thoughts, the principal continued to speak.
"The reason why these five Awakened are classified as special classes is because…"
"They don't belong to any of the combat, support, and life class."
"In fact, these five Awakened can't even be considered to be in the same type of class. We can only say that their classes are considered one of a kind."
"However…" Wang Wenfeng's voice trailed off.
He slightly furrowed his brows.
It seemed that he found it hard to say whatever he needed to say next.
Seeing this, Vice Principal Zhou, who had been standing at the side, took a step forward.
"However, although the special type of class is unique, its strength is very different," he said.
"Some are extremely powerful, so powerful that they can change the fate of humans."
"There are also others who are only mediocre. They can't even compare to the life-type class, which is generally acknowledged by all to be the least combative…"
At this point, the vice-principal threw a glance at Wang Wenfeng. He could not bring himself to continue speaking.
All the students present understood the underlying meaning of the vice-principal's words.
Those who had special-type classes were either heaven-defyingly strong or extremely weak.
However, just by looking at the principal's body condition, one could tell that Chen Feng was undoubtedly the type who was too weak to be of any use.
That was why the principal looked fine now.
Previously, when Leng Ruzhi awakened her class, the principal was so weak that he could barely stand.
If Chen Feng had awakened an incomparably powerful class, one that was even more powerful than Leng Ruzhi's Holy Light Envoy…
Principal Wang would die on the spot.
After understanding this, many people started to speak.
Some people sighed regretfully, some felt deep sorrow and regret for Chen Feng while others gloated.
However, none of them felt happy for Chen Feng.
After all, no matter how special "Shadow Controller" was, if he did not have power, it was just a pretty-sounding name without any use.
-
Over at the combat-type class phalanx.
Leng Ruzhi looked calmly at Chen Feng, who was on the stage.
She was not like the other students who either sighed, felt resentful, or gloated about Chen Feng's result.
She felt puzzled about something.
"Why does Chen Feng seem so emotionless? He doesn't seem to be affected by the result at all," Leng Ruzhi pondered.
She did not understand it at all.
When she found out that there were others present who had awakened special classes and might even be stronger than her, she felt a little shaken and uneasy about it.
Although she was not surprised that she had awakened a legendary class, she still felt a trace of joy and pride in her heart.
When she found out that there were others present who had awakened special classes and might even be stronger than her, she felt a little shaken and uneasy about it.
But this man.
Chen Feng.
When he awakened his special class, he did not show any ecstasy.
Even after learning that his special class might be very weak, he did not show any sadness.
Despite the ups and downs, he was still able to remain composed.
Leng Ruzhi knew that she could not do it.
"Perhaps, Shadow Controller isn't as weak as everyone thinks."
Leng Ruzhi could not help but think to herself.
She did not realize that she was paying so much attention to others.
Someone seemed to have noticed that Leng Ruzhi's attention was fixed on Chen Feng.
It was Li Qiang. He originally wanted to cotton up to Leng Ruzhi, but when he noticed that, he deliberately scoffed in a voice that was just audible beside Leng Ruzhi.
"I thought that this kid was a lucky b*stard. Who knew that in the end, his class would turn out to be one that isn't practical at all? What a joke!"
However, not only did his words not please the school belle, but Leng Ruzhi's face became even colder after hearing those words.
"Before you mock others, why don't you take a look at yourself first?" she remarked.
After saying that, Leng Ruzhi closed her eyes to rest, ignoring her surroundings.
As for Li Qiang, he had a stunned expression on his face.
He did not expect his words to have the opposite effect on her.
"Why is that so?" he wondered.
"Haven't the principal already explained everything clearly?"
"Chen Feng's awakening did not deplete the principal's stamina at all."
"He's obviously useless!"
Leng Ruzhi's words made Li Qiang furious. Anger welled up in his chest, and he gritted his teeth.
He did not direct his anger at Leng Ruzhi, but Chen Feng instead.
"Leng Ruzhi, you are god's favored one. Furthermore, you have a legendary class. Of course, you have the right to criticize me."
"But no matter how lousy I am, at the very least, my class is intermediate."
"No matter how one looks at it, I'm obviously stronger than Chen Feng, whose class looks powerful but is in fact, useless!"
"How can he get Leng Ruzhi's attention just because of that lousy class he has!"
Li Qiang thought furiously to himself as he stared at Chen Feng—who was still on stage—with eyes full of cold resentment.
-
At that moment, Chen Feng, who was on the stage, was completely in the dark about Li Qiang's hatred toward him.
He only had one thought in his mind.
He was wild with joy!
"That's great! I'll finally be treated as a good-for-nothing!" Chen Feng thought.
Those who had combat-type, support-type, or life-type of classes had to serve on the front lines after graduation.
That was an extremely dangerous place. If a war broke out, dead bodies would be a more common sight than seeing people having their meals there.
If he went to that kind of place, it was useless even if he had many lives as a cat did!
However, the people in this world were still striving for higher official titles and better treatment.
What was the use of receiving good treatment when one was dead?
Looking at his current results, Chen Feng could not be more satisfied.
Approval filled Wang Wenfeng's gaze when he noticed that there was no sign of disappointment on Chen Feng's face. He nodded lightly.
"Of course, every special class has its uniqueness, but that is something that you have to figure out yourself."
"Although you don't belong to any particular faculty, you still have to attend classes."
"You may decide which faculty you want to take your classes in."
Information about every special class was kept secret.
Nobody knew anything about the five Awakened with special classes. Information about them was revealed only when they were on their deathbeds or by their closest relatives after their deaths, which was then recorded in the annals.
Before this, even the principal had no right to ask about them.
-
Hearing that, Chen Feng pondered for a moment before replying respectfully.
"In that case, I shall pick the support faculty."
Having awakened his profession, he naturally knew what abilities the Shadow Controller had.
[Lord of Shadows]
[Effect: Your affinity with the dark elements has increased greatly, and the affinity with the light elements has decreased greatly.]
[Shadow Control]
[Effect: Controls your shadow, imitates, binds, and even kills…]
[Shadow Growth]
[Effect: The shadow grows bones, flesh, and skin, becoming your clone and substitute.]
[Shadow Escape]
[Effect: Transform into a black shadow and disappear from the intense battle.]
If he showed everyone his abilities, no matter how one looked at it, it was obvious that these had nothing to do with the life faculty.
Instead, it was more inclined toward the combat faculty, which was to carry out an assassination on the enemy silently, or the support faculty, which was in charge of gathering information.
But, of course.
Those in support faculty with outstanding abilities had opportunities to go to the battlefield.
However, judging from the principal's physical condition now, the class "Shadow Controller" did not seem to be considered as an outstanding ability.
Even if it did, Chen Feng would choose to hide his strength.
From the looks of it, he would probably spend the rest of his life mediocre and safe.
This might be a good thing for him.
However, just as Chen Feng reached that conclusion, an icy-cold electronic voice rang out in his mind.
System: "Host's presence detected. Activating god-level summation system!"
System: "Activation successful. Distributing newbie gift bag!"
