Chapter 8: Transferring to a Transcendent Profession, Rumor Bearer

“……The Elite Class didn’t have strict divisions of grades or years. Every student had their own exclusive personal teacher, helping them select and schedule courses.”

“You just awakened. From now on, I’ll try to reduce the proportion of cultural subjects for you, and instead increase courses related to talent mastery and energy-level advancement in the transcendent field…”

The usually stern homeroom teacher suddenly revealed a strange smile, more unsettling than a horror film.

He quickly pulled his face back into seriousness, which made Jiang He feel a little more at ease.

Wei Sheng adjusted his expression again and led Jiang He on a tour of the Elite Class teaching hall—it had everything, even a huge hot spring pool.

Compared to the teaching building of the ordinary class next door, it was as if they belonged to two different schools.

And these were only the common facilities.

The most precious things inside the Elite Class teaching hall were the 【Transcendent Facilities】.

From the 【Blood Refining Chamber】 that helped students temper their bodies and quickly improve physical fitness, to the 【Fire Spirit Room】 designed specifically for those of the 【Sunflame Wielder】 profession, everything was available.

According to Wei Sheng, for an S-rank talent holder like Jiang He, the school would even specially build a brand-new targeted facility just for him.

Such extreme resource favoritism was jaw-dropping.

And the most important part was—

As elite students enjoying these resources, not only was their tuition entirely free, but they also received a monthly study stipend of as much as ten thousand yuan.

This sharply contrasted with the ordinary classes next door, where dozens of students squeezed into one classroom while still paying exorbitant annual tuition fees.

Yet Jiang He himself felt this was only natural.

Students who entered the Elite Class deserved such treatment.

All he felt was amazement and delight.

“So this is the daily life of a rare talent holder…”

Wei Sheng guided Jiang He around the Elite Class hall and finally brought him into the Blood Refining Chamber.

The Blood Refining Chamber used a unique training method of the transcendent era, called the 【Blood Refining Method】.

The “blood” in its name referred to the “spiritual blood” of transcendent beasts.

Just like the ancient legends of “warriors bathing in dragon’s blood to gain bodies immune to blades and spears” or “daoists refining pills with spirit beast blood to prolong life,” the blood of transcendent beasts living across Blue Star contained mysterious powers.

Modern transcendents had already learned how to harness this power and developed a complete set of techniques.

However, transcendent beasts were not common.

They were either extremely powerful—requiring even high-level transcendents to handle them with caution—

Or they were rare in number, with poor fertility, and modern artificial breeding methods were inefficient.

Therefore, spiritual blood was expensive, a luxury method of body training.

At the very least, students of the ordinary class had no right to use the Blood Refining Chamber.

Only Elite Class students had a small free monthly quota of spiritual blood to use for improving their physical qualities.

“Jiang He, since you awakened a little late, your body hasn’t been tempered by transcendent power and is weak.”

“To help you make up for this, the principal specially increased your monthly spiritual blood quota, raising it from 10 grams to 30 grams.”

“I’ve already completed the transfer procedures. You can now carry out your first body tempering.”

Outside the Blood Refining Chamber, Wei Sheng explained its usage process.

Jiang He looked like he was listening seriously, but in reality his thoughts had already drifted far away—

It was finally time for the profession transfer!

Yes, White Crane had already told him everything about the Blood Refining Chamber last night.

The goal wasn’t body tempering at all, but to use the spiritual blood provided there to hold the profession transfer ritual and help him transfer into the transcendent profession 【Rumor Bearer】!

“In the transcendent era, everyone had the ability to transfer professions.”

“And to use this ability, to obtain a new profession, one must meet the corresponding 【Requirements】… The process of meeting those requirements was called the 【Ritual】.”

“Basic professions like Student, Teacher, Merchant, or Criminal had low requirements and could be easily triggered.”

“However, since there was a limit to how many professions a person could have, no transcendent would waste too many slots on basic professions…”

“Professions like Sunflame Wielder or Sacred Speaker—true transcendent professions—had much more complicated and difficult transfer requirements.”

Jiang He recalled White Crane’s words from last night.

‘Rumor Bearer was a C-rank transcendent profession that White Crane would create in the future, a prerequisite profession for Sacred Speaker.’

“It had three transfer requirements.”

“One: Transcendent energy-level no lower than G-rank.”

“Two: Have a Word-Spirit profession-holder of no less than ‘Word Keeper’ rank inscribe a ‘Spell Word’ upon your tongue.”

“Three: Use the power of Word-Spirit to influence a target of no less than D-rank transcendent level (including but not limited to harm, enhancement, deception, conversion, or provocation).”

Among these three, Jiang He had already fulfilled the first and third requirements.

Only the second remained: the inscription of a “Spell Word.”

Spell Words were a transcendent power that White Crane, as a Word-Spirit talent holder, would develop in the future.

Its principle was to preserve specific Word-Spirit powers in the form of words, inscribing them to form special “Spell Words.”

When a Word-Spirit talent holder used Spell Words, they could greatly reduce Word-Spirit consumption and enhance its effects.

Even transcendents without Word-Spirit talents could use Spell Words to unleash secondary Word-Spirit abilities.

However, “Spell Words” had two restrictions.

First, to inscribe a Spell Word, one had to use spiritual blood; the higher the quality of the blood, the stronger the Word-Spirit power that could be recorded.

This spiritual blood wasn’t limited to that of transcendent beasts—it could also be that of transcendents themselves.

But White Crane was now a Heroic Spirit, and thus had no “spiritual blood.” Jiang He’s own energy-level was too low, and his blood couldn’t meet the inscription requirements either. Therefore, their target was the spiritual blood quota from the Blood Refining Chamber.

Second, only Word-Spirit talent holders or advanced Word-Spirit professionals could inscribe Spell Words.

Other transcendents, even if they learned the patterns, could only mimic the shape and couldn’t inscribe effective “Spell Words.”

Layer upon layer of requirements formed a strict hierarchical system for Word-Spirit professions.

Especially since, according to White Crane, the C-rank Rumor Bearer had no ability to inscribe Spell Words itself and could only obtain them from higher-ranked professionals.

This was the essence of 【Rumor】.

Jiang He couldn’t help but voice his thoughts.

“Isn’t the Word-Spirit profession system you designed way too strict…”

“Laws must not be lightly passed on. If one wishes to obtain my Word-Spirit power, they must naturally follow my rules.”

“Besides, this was just my clumsy imitation of Teacher Zhong’s design. Her Sunflame Wielder profession series is the real…” White Crane let out a cold laugh, then quickly restrained it.

“All right. Open your mouth. Let me inscribe the Spell Word.”

At this moment, Jiang He was already inside the Blood Refining Chamber.

It was a sauna-like room. He sat openly on a wooden chair, unclothed.

From the walls around him, strands of crimson steam emerged—this was mist-like spiritual liquid, made from 2 grams of spiritual blood combined with various medicinal herbs. Drawn by his body, it quickly floated toward him.

But before it reached him, a force intercepted it halfway.

White Crane flicked his finger, extracting the true spiritual blood from the mist. Facing Jiang He’s open mouth, he drew in the air, then snapped his finger.

A streak of bloody light flew out, landing on the root of Jiang He’s tongue in an instant. It formed a crimson mark, quickly dimming and merging seamlessly with his flesh and blood.

“This Spell Word is called ‘Lord Flame.’ It can produce a small-scale fiery explosion, with core power strong enough to injure a D-rank transcendent. It can be used three times in total.”

“When the Arc Light attack happens tomorrow, decide for yourself when to use it.”

White Crane’s voice rose in Jiang He’s mind.

Before he could even respond, a flood of information surged forth, converging into text.
