Worldwide Class Change: An Invincible Swordsman

Zhang Wencheng looked at Jiang Chen. "You're not thinking of going to help, are you?"

"You said it yourself earlier. This is my mission with Chiyoshima Hitomi, so I'm definitely going to act."

Zhang Wencheng shot him a dismissive glance. "Her losing her Divine Envoy status has nothing to do with you. Yet you claim there's no connection? I think there's a pretty significant one."

Jiang Chen sighed. "There really isn't."

"Come on. Once a Divine Envoy makes a mistake, people will immediately start eyeing that position. Who knows how many are fighting for it!"

"Then do I have a chance?"

"Forget it. You can't become a Divine Envoy. Only someone from the Sakura Alliance can be one, and you're not qualified anyway."

Jiang Chen left the office and made a trip to the Skill Hall.

To kill Demon King Beckley, he was lacking Skills. A Swordsman's Skills were inherently few; he could only learn more by other means.

He entered the Skill Hall. An old man sat at a desk and looked up as Jiang Chen walked in. "Here to exchange Score for Skills?"

"Yes."

"State your class."

"Swordsman."

The old man looked at Jiang Chen, surprised. "Swordsman?"

"Is there a problem?"

"So you're Jiang Chen, the champion of the Alliance Competition? The Swordsman who killed over two hundred thousand people. Let me see what Skills you're looking for."

The old man fiddled with his computer, then pushed it towards Jiang Chen. "There are many Skill Books here; see which ones suit you. Each Skill Book requires a different amount of Score."

[Blade Storm: Required Swordsman Level: 30.]

[Solo Skill: Fires a Sword Aura forward; the hit enemy will suffer ten Sword Qi Storm Attacks...]

[Penetrating Swordsmanship: Required Swordsman Level: 30.]

[Passive Skill: When using a Skill, there's a 5% chance to Penetrate the enemy, creating a Penetration effect that pierces enemy Armor.]

[Tian Gang Sword Body: Required Swordsman Level: 30.]

[Active Skill: For ten seconds, releases Gang Qi to protect oneself from harm. Cooldown: ten minutes.]

[Annihilation Slash: Required Swordsman Level: 20.]

[Active Skill: Launches a Sword Qi Slash forward, destroying enemies...]

[Leisure Stepping Method: Required Swordsman Level: 20.]

[Increases movement speed by a certain amount.]

There were so many Skills! Looking over the descriptions, Jiang Chen grew excited. I should have come to exchange for Skill Books sooner.

The Skill Books Jiang Chen needed most right now were, naturally, defensive ones. The first he chose was [Tian Gang Sword Body], a Skill Book similar to a Magician's Magic Shield.

The second was [Penetrating Swordsmanship]. This one increased the chance of penetrating enemy Armor, ignoring defenses. This Skill Book was also very good.

Jiang Chen asked, "Aren't there any group attack Skill Books?"

"Swordsmen are a Melee Class, not Magicians. How could they have group attack Skill Books? But now that you mention it... there actually is one."

"[Sword Array] Forms a Sword Qi Barrier within 1 meter around you. Enemies within the Barrier will suffer a Sword Qi Attack."

"Although this is a group Skill Book, it's quite rubbish because a single Sword Qi Attack is negligible."

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up. [Sword Array]... What would happen if it was amplified a hundred times? Yes, that's the one I'll choose.

Jiang Chen said with a smile, "I choose [Tian Gang Sword Body], [Penetrating Swordsmanship], and [Sword Array]—these three Skill Books."

"Okay, that will be a total of one hundred thousand Score."

Jiang Chen took out his magnetic card and handed it over.

"Wait, I'll find them."

Soon, the old man produced three Skill Books. Jiang Chen touched them and quickly learned the Skills.

[Hundred Times Amplification in progress, amplification successful.]

[Active Skill: Within 1,000 seconds, releases one hundred Gang Qi to protect oneself from harm. Cooldown: 6 seconds.]

[Hundred Times Amplification in progress, amplification successful.]

[Passive Skill: When using Skills, there is a 500% chance to Penetrate the enemy, creating a Penetration effect that pierces enemy Armor.]

[Hundred Times Amplification in progress, amplification successful.]

[Forms a Sword Qi Barrier within a 100-meter radius; enemies within the Barrier will suffer one hundred Sword Qi Attacks.]

Jiang Chen smiled. Indeed, after the Hundred Times Amplification, it's completely different. Even a trash Skill becomes godlike after being amplified a hundred times.

A Barrier formed within a hundred meters, subjecting enemies to one hundred Sword Qi Attacks—such terrifying Offensive Power! No one could get close to him.

What did this mean? It meant that even during a Beast Tide, I could single-handedly hold my ground. Utterly invincible!

These three Skill Books were fantastic.

Plus, there was the Penetration effect. For example, if an opponent had Heavy Armor, the Penetration effect could ignore it and directly damage their body.

Jiang Chen could now even kill Divine Envoys.

Jiang Chen prepared to leave but stopped at the door and looked back. "Teacher, I have a book I can't understand. I have no idea what kind of book it is. Could you take a look?"

"Oh? A book you can't understand? Where did it drop from?"

"Demon King Elliot."

The teacher was stunned. Good heavens! You're still in your novice period, and you've already killed a Demon King?

"Let me take a look."

Jiang Chen handed the book to the teacher.

The teacher flipped open the first page and was utterly shocked. Seeing the teacher's reaction, Jiang Chen thought excitedly, This must be a treasure!

"This is not a Skill Book."

"Then what is it?"

"This is a book of The Fallen. You simply cannot learn from it. Not only can you not understand its contents, but even I can't. Only The Fallen can learn from it."

"The Fallen is a different class?"

"Yes."

The teacher handed the book back to Jiang Chen, who put it into his Space. Since he couldn't learn from it, it didn't really matter. With these new Skill Books, any Demon King Beckley would die, and even Divine Envoys would die.

Angelina, upon hearing Jiang Chen was unharmed, walked up to him and gave him a big hug.

"You've finally come back."

Jiang Chen smiled. "Don't worry, not even a Divine Envoy can kill me."

"By the way, what's your relationship with the Divine Gods? Could it be that you two have already..."

Jiang Chen looked at Angelina's wide, innocent eyes. "We're just ordinary friends. It's not what you think."

Angelina smiled brightly. "Mm, I believe you."

Jiang Chen started to feel a headache coming on.

Many people had seen Jiang Chen carrying Chiyoshima Hitomi out. It was even circulating online that Jiang Chen had become Chiyoshima Hitomi's lover.

In the Different Worlds, the private affairs of Divine Gods often became tavern talk among Heroes. It was just like on Blue Star, where Divine Gods were akin to celebrities whose private lives always attracted extra scrutiny.

There were even rumors that Chiyoshima Hitomi and Jiang Chen had 'battled' for three days and three nights, resulting in Chiyoshima Hitomi's injuries.

Damn, that was too wild!

Especially the Heroes from the Dragon Zone Union. Whenever they saw Jiang Chen, they would give him a thumbs-up and say two words: "Awesome!"

He even managed to 'handle' a Divine Envoy from the Sakura Alliance!

It wasn't just the Heroes who misunderstood; even Principal Zhang Wencheng thought so.

The key was, Jiang Chen really had no such relationship with Chiyoshima Hitomi!

Being misunderstood like this... somehow feels a bit... thrilling! Uh...

Angelina asked, "Where are we going next?"

"Dark Zone."

"Are we still going there?"

"Yes. Don't forget, I still have a mission: to kill Demon King Beckley. That bastard ambushed me in there. I will definitely get my revenge."

"What if the Sakura Alliance Legion comes looking for trouble with you?"

"I don't mind killing them again."

Just as he was about to leave, he received a call from Ruo Li.

「Passion Bar.」

Four people were sitting together.
