Even though he had suspicions based on the previous visions, having them confirmed now was a whole different story.
All the students were stunned as they looked at Yan Yingyue—the five-stars professional. In the hundred-year history of Seaside Second Middle School, only one professional had ever awakened with five stars!
And that unique individual was the third Principal of Seaside Second Middle School.
However, the old Principal was no longer among us. He heroically sacrificed his life in the last Disaster to protect the safety of the students and faculty of the school.
As the five stars descended onto Yan Yingyue, she instantly became the center of attention.
On the other hand, only three people were still focused on Chen Mo.
One was his homeroom teacher Su Tianxin, another was his best friend Fang Datong, and the last was Shen Bingbing, who for unknown reasons, always secretly paid attention to Chen Mo.
Under their watchful eyes, only two stars had descended upon Chen Mo’s head.
If this were before, achieving such a result in a small-scale area like Seaside Second Middle School would be considered quite good.
But today, overshadowed by the emergence of one five-stars professional and two four-star professionals, the two stars on Chen Mo’s head seemed increasingly insignificant.
What’s more, the profession that Chen Mo awakened to seemed terribly lame.
The Occupational Talent was practically useless.
They couldn’t help but feel sorry for Chen Mo.
They all felt that given Chen Mo’s usual dedication and hard work in training, he didn’t deserve this outcome.
While the three of them were feeling sorry, they didn’t know that behind the two visible stars, there were five more hidden stars that had fallen into Chen Mo’s body.
He was, therefore, still in shock.
This was the hint he received from the Heavenly Dao.
[The Heavenly Dao’s Hint: Congratulations on successfully awakening your profession with the Heavenly Dao’s blessing!]
[The Heavenly Dao’s Hint: You have obtained the two-star combat profession—the Skeleton Mage!]
[The Heavenly Dao’s Hint: Detecting anomalies in your soul. You have a fused soul, containing both a soul from this world and a soul from another!]
[The Heavenly Dao’s Hint: Given that you’re a special existence with dual soul fusion, according to the rule of one soul-one profession, you can awaken a second profession. Your second profession is currently awakening!]
[The Heavenly Dao’s Hint: Since the second soul is from another world, your second profession will exist as a hidden profession, unable to be revealed or detected by any means!]
[The Heavenly Dao’s Hint: You’ve obtained the unique five-stars lifestyle hidden profession—the Infinite Fusion Master!]
He read and reread the messages from the Heavenly Dao several times.
Chen Mo finally understood. This seems to be the result of my transmigration. If the Chen Mo of this world could have the same friends and family as in my previous life, then he must have existed in this world before I transmigrated. So where did the previous soul go after I transmigrated? Recalling the strange fact that I possess all the memories of this world’s Chen Mo after my transmigration, I reasoned that this might be the so-called soul fusion. The previous Chen Mo of this world might have been too addicted to games, staying up late playing games and watching short videos until he died suddenly. That’s when I happened to come over under mysterious circumstances. And because we were originally the same person, our souls easily fused together. Unexpectedly, it brought me these additional benefits.
Don’t underestimate the awakening of the second profession as a lifestyle profession.
Chen Mo’s attributes were now impressively good.
[Grade]: Seven-star (Two-star + Five-stars hidden)
[Profession]: Skeleton Mage (Initial Profession) + Infinite Fusion Master (Hidden Initial Profession)
Constitution 10 = 300 Life, 50 Physical Defense, and 10 Life/10s Recovery
Strength 10 = 30 Physical Attack
Agility 10 = +10% Critical Damage
Wisdom 10 = 30 Magic Attack
Spirit 10 = 500 Energy, 50 Magic Defense, 10 Energy/10s Recovery
[Assignable Attributes]: 70 points
The soul fusion triggering two initial professions actually has this advantage! My profession star level is stacked, and each level’s attributes are calculated according to the post-first-transition rules. This is awesome!
Because the initial profession can only reach as high as the five-stars level. If you want to increase the star level, you have to perform a profession transition. After passing the transition trial, your profession star level will advance further.
And when your profession star level exceeds five stars, each star corresponds to 10 attribute points.
In other words, after the first-transition, if your profession can reach six-star, you would receive 60 attribute points per level.
But right now, Chen Mo hadn’t undergone any transitions yet and was still at the initial profession level. However, since his profession star level was seven-star from the start, effortlessly exceeding five stars, the Heavenly Dao directly calculated his upgrade attributes according to those exceeding five stars.
It gave him the same treatment that others could only enjoy after reaching seven-star post-first-transition. At Level 1, he already had as many as 70 freely assignable attribute points.
Others start at Level 1 with a maximum of 25 attribute points for a five-stars initial profession, whereas I have 45 more attribute points per level than them. If these were converted into attribute-boosting artifacts, their value would be immeasurable. Compared to these once-in-a-million geniuses, I’m almost twice as good. Doesn’t that mean I’ve left most people completely in the dust?
Beyond his excitement, Chen Mo did not rush to distribute his attribute points. He wanted to check if his two awakened initial professions required any specific attributes.
[Initial Profession· Combat]: Skeleton Mage★★
[Occupational Talent]: Skeleton Commander
〖Skeleton Commander〗: Units attacked by you will be tagged with a focusing mark. Units carrying this mark will take double damage from your summoned creatures.
[Profession Skill]: Skeleton Summoning (White)
〖Skeleton Summoning· White〗: Consumes 100 Energy points, summons a Skeleton Monster that lasts for 30 seconds. Cooldown time: 5 seconds. The Skeleton Monster’s attributes are tied to your Wisdom and Spirit.
Current summonable Skeleton Monster attributes: Health 100, Physical Attack 30, Physical Defense 0, Magic Defense 0.
I had heard that the Skeleton Mage was quite a weak profession. As expected, the talent is virtually nonexistent, the summoning consumes too much Energy, and the summoned Skeleton Monster is pathetic. How do I play this? It might not be apparent how trashy the Skeleton Monster is by just looking at its stats, but the gap becomes apparent when you compare it with the initial abilities of other professions. The white-quality skill of the Mage—Fireball Technique only consumes 10 Energy, but it can deal an astonishing 100 magic damage plus Wisdom damage. If a conventional Mage and a Skeleton Mage were to cross fire, a single Fireball Technique could obliterate the Skeleton Mage’s Skeleton Monster. And it only used 10 Energy points, compared to my 100. The cooldown time for the Fireball Technique is only 3 seconds, compared to my 5 seconds. One is a one-star profession, the other is a two-star profession. This disparity is simply unbearable to look at.
