Seeing the buzz-cut kid's comical appearance, the principal turned and said to the grade director with a smile,

"This kid's talent, if I remember correctly, should double the attack of a kitchen knife and has a special suppressive effect.

"The quality of students this year is very high, Class Eight actually has two S-rank talents.

"Moreover, those students with life-oriented professions are also quite promising seeds," the grade director immediately responded.

"After all, the categorization of professions is just a division made by us humans,

"Some talents, when paired with inconspicuous professions, can often produce unexpectedly effective results."

The principal noncommittally replied, "Yes, whether a profession can exhibit its perfect effect often depends on the talent..."

Speaking of this, the principal suddenly changed his tone.

"However, the overall combat power of combat-oriented professions is still much stronger than that of life-oriented ones." The grade director laughed in agreement.

"Of course, otherwise those professions with strong combat abilities wouldn't be classified into the combat category."

Suddenly, the principal saw a familiar face and exclaimed in surprise,

"Isn't that the eldest son of the Wang family's third master, Wang Xianxian? Why is he still queuing here instead of joining the Wang family's team?" The grade director immediately explained, "This child generally keeps a certain distance from the Wang family's descendants at school." "Why is that?" the principal wondered.

The grade director sighed, "Wang Xianxian is always bullied by the young members of the Wang family. I have reported this issue to the Wang family, but no one dealt with it.

"I don't know why, but the students from the Wang family always seem to deliberately target him.

"Wang Xianxian is also a defiant one; every time he is bullied, he fights back, often getting himself injured. Later, I transferred him to Class Eight, which doesn't have any Wang family descendants."

"How strange," the principal frowned, "Bullying within the clan is a very serious issue in any family, let alone the Wang family, which is an imperial clan. How can they just ignore it?"

The grade director shook his head with some dissatisfaction.

"Principal, you know as well as I do that the Tianjian Wang family has already lost the foundation of an imperial clan,

"If it weren't for the news of the old ancestor (Sword Emperor) who disappeared fifteen years ago and had been missing for three thousand years, how could they be so arrogant? "I know about Wang Xianxian. Although his talent is not stunning, he has a heart that seeks the Dao. "Such a seedling, even with mediocre talent, can eventually reach an impressive height.

"Yet, the Wang family allows such a child to be bullied by his own clan, truly lacking the magnanimity of a great clan!"

The principal's gaze deepened as he watched Wang Xianxian below.

"Heaven burdens the worthy with great tasks. Those with a determined Dao heart will eventually break out of their cocoon and transform into a butterfly."

Seeing his subordinate wanting to say more, the principal shook his head.

"The Wang family is an imperial clan; we have no place to interfere, after all, this is their family affair."

The grade director sighed helplessly and dropped the topic.

The principal patted his subordinate on the shoulder, "Alright, let's see what profession the kid will awaken to."

On the awakening platform, the staff member holding the list shouted,

"Next, Wang Xianxian."

The boy whose name was called took a deep breath, climbed onto the awakening platform with a nervous heart. Once Wang Xianxian stood firm on the awakening array, the array began to glow with dazzling purple light. The boy closed his eyes tightly, clutching the pendant in his right hand, and whispered in his heart,

"Mom, I'm about to awaken my profession..."

In an instant, Wang Xianxian felt a mysterious power awakening within him.

This power became increasingly intense under the guidance of the awakening array.

Just as the mysterious power was about to burst forth, an unexpected change occurred.

If you come across this story on Amazon, it's taken without permission from the author. Report it.

The mysterious power suddenly quieted down, and no matter how the awakening array tried to draw it out, there was no longer any response.

Wang Xianxian, on the awakening platform, noticed the abnormality within his body, and his face instantly turned pale.

As the light of the awakening array faded, the voice of the staff member also followed,

"Wang Xianxian, life-oriented profession [Brewer], talent awakening failed."

The staff member's words seemed to sentence the boy on the awakening platform to death.

Looking at the shining, even somewhat dazzling text on the awakening stone, the boy's face turned pale, his eyes lifeless.

The moment the staff member's voice fell, it caused an uproar among the crowd.

"Holy shit, talent can fail to awaken?"

"Is this the point? Isn't the point that Wang Xianxian awakened as a Brewer?"

"Yeah, why would a descendant of the Wang family awaken a profession other than sword-related ones?"

"Holy shit, there's a story to this Wang Xianxian."

"A story under the green grass?"

On the leadership platform, many leaders also wore expressions of disbelief.

The grade director couldn't believe the text on the awakening stone,

"How... could this be..."

The principal's gaze became even sharper as he stared at the boy on the platform, his tone solemn,

"Something big is going to happen..."

Below the awakening platform, the young members of the Wang family showed schadenfreude expressions.

"A Brewer? He's really disgraced our Wang family."

"Both are the sons of the third uncle, but the gap between Wang Xianxian and cousin Beichen is too big, isn't it?" "You also don't think about it, a child born to a merchant woman, how can he be compared with cousin Beichen, born to Aunt Murong, a favored daughter of heaven?" "However, although Wang Xianxian's talent isn't great, why did he awaken as a Brewer?" "Yeah, don't we all have the bloodline of the Sword Emperor in our bodies, why did he awaken as a Brewer?" "Hmph, maybe that Wang Xianxian really is a bastard born to his mother and some other man." The surrounding doubts and ridicule fell on the boy's ears like countless sharp swords, stabbing fiercely into his heart, causing Wang Xianxian's breathing to become rapid. The boy slowly raised his head, his delicate and tender face full of despair, His dark eyes woodenly swept over those mocking clan members, and his already despairing heart became even more desolate. "Why..." In a daze, the boy's spine seemed to lose its support and gradually slumped. Wang Xianxian's eyes filled with death, turned around in desolation, and quietly walked down the awakening platform. His solitary figure, compared to the surrounding world, seemed somewhat out of place. Just as he stepped down from the platform, Wang Xianxian encountered a boy with a defiant face. That was his genius younger brother, Wang Beichen. Wang Beichen crossed his arms, looking at Wang Xianxian with disdain, "Think about how to explain to father!" "Having you as a brother really makes me feel disgusted!" Wang Xianxian did not respond to the humiliation, as he was engulfed in extreme self-doubt. Everything around him failed to catch his attention. He slowly walked towards his class's location, Facing the caring words of classmates and friends, he remained unmoved. Strong emotions continuously eroded his mind, and Wang Xianxian's consciousness began to blur, Afterward, he seemed to lose all his strength and collapsed. The surrounding classmates quickly shouted, "Teacher, the class monitor has fainted!" ..... "Mom, what is this?" "This is wine." "What is wine?" "Wine is a drink invented by our ancestors." "A drink! I want to drink it too!" "Children are not allowed to drink wine, and drinking alcohol is harmful to the body~" "If it's harmful to the body, then why do adults still drink wine?" "Because wine can make people forget their unhappiness." "Then I want to drink wine when I grow up!" "If possible, mom hopes you never have to drink wine in your life." "Why?" "Because..." ..... The unconscious boy didn't know that the gourd pendant he had put in his pocket was emitting a faint golden light...
