Xiang Beifei shook his head. Although the system was bizarre and powerful, considering that Liu Qianrou had little to do with him, he didn't want to intervene.
While there was a buzz on that side, the Awakening Ceremony here continued, and soon, Xiang Beifei's class also burst into exclamations—a S-level system had appeared!
It was Monitor Zhuo Jing!
"Monitor Zhuo is also S-level!"
"Amazing!"
Many classmates cast envious looks in Zhuo Jing's direction.
A student who awakened an S-level talent system started a whole class higher than everyone else, as if in a hundred-meter race, they had run ahead by twenty meters!
Zhuo Jing was also incredibly excited. Immediately he straightened up and puffed out his chest, basking in the adoration and admiration of all eyes on him, very pleased with his own system.
"Very good! Very good! I knew I wasn't wrong about you!"
Yang Hua was thrilled. The testing had gone on for quite some time, and the systems awakened by the students in his class were only N-level, with six being R-level – too low a level.
Originally when he first became a teacher, if a student had an R-level system, his prestige value would increase. But as the system missions gradually increased in difficulty, now only an S-level could add to his teacher prestige value.
Because of Zhuo Jing's appearance, his teacher prestige value had just increased by 500 points!
Yang Hua almost cried!
500 teacher prestige points!
This was much easier than criticizing students all day long!
"It's over. I was thinking of suppressing him with my system, to see if he would dare to be arrogant with us in the future, but I didn't expect this guy to be so lucky!"
Kong Xiuwen spoke with both envy and jealousy.
Xiang Beifei had planned to check out what kind of system Zhuo Jing had, but Yang Hua had already called Xiang Beifei to go up and take part in the Awakening Ceremony.
Xiang Beifei had no choice but to retract his gaze and walk towards the floating Electric Shock Thunderstone.
"What system will I awaken?"
Xiang Beifei pondered to himself.
Although he was able to see other people's systems, in this world, power still ruled supreme.
Without a Cultivation Technique or promotion means, it was still useless; he had to increase his own strength.
The thunderstone emitting blue electric arcs was flickering before his eyes, and every now and then, a spark of electricity lit up.
The thunder and electricity emitted by the thunderstone stimulated the potential within the human body, awakening the innate system. After stimulating potential, the intensity of the sparks produced by the thunder and electricity determined the talent level of a person's system.
Generally speaking,
For an N-level system, the electric arc is blue.
An R-level system turns the arc deep blue.
An S-level system turns it black.
An SR-level system is red.
Was that the SR system?
Why did the levels displayed by the thunderstone continuously decrease?
Sizzle!
The electric arc changed to the black color that represented the S-level system; following that was the navy blue of R, and then it reverted back to light blue of N...
"What's going on? Wasn't it a golden yellow arc just now? I thought our school was about to witness the rise of an unparalleled genius, but why has it changed to the lowest level N system?"
"Could the thunderstone be malfunctioning?"
Crack!
The Electric Shock Thunderstone in Xiang Beifei's hand turned into an unsightly rock, with the electric sparks suddenly disappearing altogether.
Xiang Beifei looked at the thunderstone in his hand with some confusion.
"What exactly is going on? Did your system awaken?"
Principal Li Nanxing asked urgently.
He had lived more than half his life and had never seen such a phenomenon. Initially thinking that a golden yellow UR system had emerged, he was so thrilled that he almost shouted out loud, but he had never expected the thunderstone's arc to keep changing, falling all the way to N level.
"No, I don't feel any system awakening."
Xiang Beifei frowned; he didn't see any system prompts.
"Then why did the thunderstone turn out like that just now?" Principal Li Nanxing asked impatiently.
Yang Hua eagerly stepped forward, taking the thunderstone from Xiang Beifei's hand, only to find that the thunderstone no longer showed an electric arc.
After inspecting it, he looked at Xiang Beifei with a strange expression and said, "This thunderstone, it seems, seems to be broken?"
Everyone was taken aback!
"So the thunderstone was broken, no wonder!"
"I was saying, with his poor grades, how could he possibly awaken such a high-level system? It must have been an issue with the thunderstone."
Everyone's gaze toward Xiang Beifei normalized a bit; if a student with terrible grades had awakened a UR-level system, it would surely have caused rancor.
Principal Li Nanxing also took the thunderstone, gave it a brief inspection, and his hopeful gaze dimmed, as the thunderstone indeed elicited no response.
"It seems the thunderstone was the issue just now; bring another thunderstone."
Principal Li Nanxing couldn't help but take another look at Xiang Beifei, feeling somewhat regretful.
He didn't know Xiang Beifei, but he had earnestly hoped that Xiang Beifei had truly awakened an SR or higher level system. In that case, Luhe High School would surely rise to the ranks of top schools, gaining fame and distinction.
All the restlessness and shock of the crowd settled back down. If the principal himself said so, then the thunderstone must indeed be broken.
Glimpses towards Xiang Beifei took on a touch of schadenfreude. This guy had ridden an emotional roller coaster today; just as he thought he was about to turn the tables and be in the spotlight, it turned out to be a huge farce, ending in a complete flop.
Xiang Beifei held the thunderstone in his hand, indifferent to the stares of the others, who all thought the thunderstone was broken. Yet, he harbored a peculiar thought in his mind.
In the process just then, the lightning had desperately tried to penetrate his body for quite some time, searching for the so-called system talent. But as the thunderstone's power surged to the max, there remained no sign of activity within Xiang Beifei. The thunderstone didn't give up, continuing to surge until, at last, it ran out of steam...
So to be precise, the powerful Yang's "Electric Shock Thunderstone" wasn't broken. It was just that Xiang Beifei had drained it—
of its power.
