Chapter 2 Profession, Ghost Swordsman!
Chu Bai looked at the dark red blood on his hands and thought deeply: "This is a sign that the body cannot withstand the impact of spiritual power, the muscles and bones are injured, and the energy and spirit are depleted..."
Although Chu Bai had not become an awakened person before, he still understood some basic knowledge.
Whether it is spiritually guided ritual awakening or natural awakening, it is a step-by-step process, so there are basically no side effects.
And if you use strengthening points to strengthen yourself, it will bring about an instant explosive improvement. The burden on the body is naturally different.
Nothing in the world is perfect and can become an awakened person. This small problem is not worth mentioning.
After lying on the sofa and resting for a while, Chu Bai opened the system panel and checked it out.
He is now curious about what his initial career will be.
Each awakener will receive an initial first-level extraordinary profession after awakening, and subsequent professions need to be obtained through a job transfer ceremony after advancement.
[Name: Chu Bai]
[Occupation: First level·Ghost Swordsman]
[Spiritual Power: Open Spirit Level (Lv.1)]
[Spiritual Skill: Ghost Slaying (Introduction)]
[School Combat Skills: None]
[Strengthening Points: 0]
"It turns out to be a Ghost Swordsman, which is pretty good."
The occupations of awakened people are generally divided into three categories: melee combat, long-range and medical assistance.
Ghost Swordsman is a relatively common first-level melee profession, using sword weapons to fight.
Each level of occupation has five spiritual skills, and as the spiritual power level increases, they will slowly awaken.
The proficiency of spiritual skills is divided into five levels: entry, proficiency, specialization, master, and grandmaster.
The higher the proficiency, the more powerful the spiritual skills can be.
Chu Bai saw that on the panel, there was a light green plus sign behind the spiritual skill Ghost Slash (Introduction), which should mean that he could improve the proficiency of the spiritual skill through strengthening points.
Chu Bai looked at the spiritual power column again, and the plus sign behind it was red.
"The green plus sign and the red plus sign should be the difference between whether my body can bear it and whether there are any side effects." Chu Bai guessed.
But now that his strengthening points have been used up, he can't test whether it's really what he thought.
Feeling the spiritual power surging in his body, Chu Bai clenched his fists, his eyes flashing.
"Fortunately, I succeeded before the college entrance examination. Now, I can finally apply for Lingwu University!"
After being excited for a while, Chu Bai calmed down and thought about it.
Although he has successfully condensed the seeds of spiritual power and became an awakened person, it is already October, and there are only seven months left before the awakened person's college entrance examination in May next year.
Most of the students in the Lingwu class in the middle school became awakened in their first year of high school.
Their cultivation time is two or three years longer than mine.
If you want to catch up in these seven months, you have to find a way to continue to strengthen your efforts.
At the same time, we must also look for ways to strengthen our physical fitness and reduce the side effects of increasing our spiritual power.
Chu Bai remembered that the Lingwu class in school taught body training techniques. After he became an awakened person, he could transfer from the ordinary class to the Lingwu class. This shouldn't be difficult.
There was no talking all night. After washing his body, Chu Bai lay on the bed and fell asleep, waiting for the arrival of the next day.
The next day, Monday morning, Chu Bai got up from the bed, washed himself casually, picked up his backpack and hurried downstairs with a piece of toast in his mouth.
After devouring breakfast along the way, Chu Bai arrived at the South District of Hiiragi City, outside Songnan Middle School.
He did not enter the school directly, but flashed into a street next door.
There is a sign hanging on a dirty-looking shop deep in the street: Lao Wang’s second-hand store next door.
Under these eight big characters, there are also densely packed small characters: "Specialized in manufacturing various types of weapons, purchasing demon materials..."
Chu Bai strode in. At the front desk of the store, a gray-haired old man was leisurely watching the morning news.
When he saw Chu Bai walking in, the old man didn't move. He just said hello: "Chu Bai, why are you looking so pale today? What are you going to buy this time?"
Chu Bai has not yet recovered from his lack of energy and energy yesterday, and he does look a little sick.
Chu Bai walked to the front desk, put down his backpack, and said, "I'm not here to buy things this time, but to sell things."
Chu Bai and the shop owner Lao Wang were old acquaintances. They were introduced to each other by the director of the orphanage. After Chu Bai moved out of the orphanage, he would find some part-time jobs from Lao Wang every now and then to earn money.
The crossbow and several demon-breaking arrows prepared for hunting monsters were also bought here.
When Chu Bai said this, Lao Wang became a little interested. He sat up, looked at Chu Bai and said, "Since you bought the crossbow half a year ago, you rarely do part-time jobs. You wander around the city all day long after school."
,What kind of monster did you hunt this time?"
Chu Bai smiled and said nothing, took out the bag containing the demon materials from his backpack and put it on the table.
Opening the bag, ten blade fingers stained with dried blood fell out.
After careful inspection, Old Wang said: "Based on today's market price, the fingers of the demon blade finger demon in the early bronze level are about five hundred for one finger, and five thousand for ten fingers."
Five thousand yuan is a good income for Chu Bai, a poor student now.
Chu Bai said: "I want to buy a sword-like weapon. The requirements are not high. It has good spiritual power carrying capacity and is strong and durable."
Lao Wang pointed at the corner of the shop: "The standard sabers that have been eliminated by the Hiiragi City Security Bureau will be sold to you for five thousand apiece."
Chu Bai walked to the corner and looked at the long black knives piled in bundles. There were still a lot of demon blood stains on them, exuding a strong fishy smell.
He found a handful that looked good and wrapped it in cloth. Chu Bai looked at the time and shouted to Lao Wang: "Thank you, Lao Wang!"
Watching Chu Bai walk out of the shop quickly, the white-haired old Wang touched his unshaven chin and said to himself: "It's really strange that this kid can awaken with his qualifications."
Lao Wang smiled again: "However, this boy's tenacity is indeed quite good. He has hunted several monsters with an ordinary person's physique, and it is not surprising that he awakened during the battle.
But there is only so much time left before the college entrance examination, so I don’t know if I can get into Lingwu University."
Shaking his head, Lao Wang lay leisurely on the chair and hummed a military song that was widely circulated among the Awakened Army.
In Songnan Middle School, Chu Bai was walking quickly with a long knife.
This world is full of martial virtues. Even if ordinary people have not become awakened, they will exercise their physical fitness and practice martial arts, so as not to be unable to run when danger comes.
Although Dongxia strictly prohibits civilians from privately possessing thermal weapons, the management of cold weapons is still relatively loose.
After showing his ID card to register at the security office, Chu Bai walked into the school swaggeringly carrying a knife.
