On the day they turned eighteen and awakened their powers, the school field was solemn and still.
Zheng Huo pressed his hand against the Awakening Stone. Sweat dampened his palm, and a flame burned in his heart. He longed to awaken the kind of power wielded by heroes in legendary tales: a blaze that could scorch the eight corners of the world, or the might to command thunder.
A pillar of light shot into the sky and swallowed him whole!
Vast power surged through his body. Then a grand, magnificent battle anthem titled “Victory” rang out!
The crowd fell silent for a moment, then erupted in astonished cries!
“It’s the Domain of Music! An S-rank support power!”
“A divine skill on the battlefield! A pillar of our nation!”
Zheng Huo trembled with excitement, as if he could already feel the throne of invincibility within reach.
But just fifteen seconds later, the rousing anthem came to an abrupt stop.
A sorrowful erhu melody drifted through the air. In 360-degree surround sound, a clear, melancholy male voice began to sing with deep emotion:
“True love~ is as vast as the prairie...”
“Layer upon layer~ of wind and rain cannot keep us apart...”
Dead silence.
Then came the line etched into everyone’s DNA: “Snowflakes drift~ the north wind howls, ” The whole field instantly became an ocean of laughter!
“Hahaha! It’s ‘A Spray of Plum Blossoms’!”
“Zheng Huo! You’re totally finished!”
The wild joy on Zheng Huo’s face shattered in an instant, leaving him deathly pale. He stood frozen onstage, as though he were alone in a blizzard.
The power was real, but this power... made him a laughingstock.
Just as Zheng Huo was losing all hope, the BGM changed again.
This time, he sensed that the BGM had a unique enhancement effect.
So his supernatural ability was actually an all-purpose support System.
Zheng Huo: “...”
From this day onward, his life was destined to be “spectacular” in every way.
