"There's a lot of room to maneuver here," Xia Yan continued in a hushed voice. "Even if the soldiers here know that Jiang Xiao is a healing-type Awakened, they'll subconsciously think that the Blessing Star Technique is of Bronze quality. We just need to upgrade his Blessing Star Technique to Silver quality when Jiang Xiao first reveals his Star Map to the world."

Han Jiangxue nodded. "Yeah, that avoids explaining the unbelievable situation of upgrading a Star Technique."

Xia Yan continued to whisper into Han Jiangxue's ear, "Even if the military people react and question us, we can insist that Jiang Xiao initially absorbed an extremely rare White Ghoul Witch Star Bead of the Silver stage. Although the number of Silver-level White Ghoul Witches is extremely small, they do exist."

"Moreover, you have a natural advantage in attributing all high-quality rare Star Beads and Star Techniques to your parents," Xia Yan said. "When people ask, just say that your parents left the rare Star Beads to you and your brother."

"I understand what you mean, but... what about later?" Han Jiangxue asked, somewhat lost. "We can't suppress him from upgrading his Star Technique quality just because we're afraid of exposing his special abilities. He has such a strong trait, he's destined to..."

Han Jiangxue's excitement suddenly vanished. It sounded ridiculous, but the stronger Jiang Xiao became, the higher the level of teams he might join in the future, the more dangerous missions he might face, and the less secure his life would be.

Just like Han Jiangxue's parents, who became heroic pioneers but disappeared without a trace three years ago.

"These aren't things you can decide. Although he's a mischievous child now, he's also a man. He'll always grow up. You can't decide his future," Xia Yan said, sensing her best friend's concerns. "Especially since his abilities are so special, and he's a healing-type Awakened, he's destined not to follow the path of most Awakened."

"A very real problem is right here. What if Jiang Xiao really does see your parents as his role models? What if he really wants to join the Pioneer Legion, or the Night Watch Legion that's admired by so many?" Xia Yan's words filled Han Jiangxue with worry.

Xia Yan continued, "Putting the glory aside, those kinds of legions mean higher risks, but also higher rewards."

Just a few days ago, Han Jiangxue had even encouraged Jiang Xiao to work hard to become stronger, form a team, and go to the place where their parents disappeared to give them some closure.

But that was just Han Jiangxue's attempt to encourage Jiang Xiao. At the time, she, like everyone else, thought Jiang Xiao was just a moron with extremely low aptitude.

Han Jiangxue didn't believe from the bottom of her heart that Jiang Xiao could reach that height.

At that time, Han Jiangxue even encouraged Jiang Xiao to use more healing-type Star Techniques to attract the school's attention and gain more resource allocation.

But now it was different, completely different.

Jiang Xiao, with such a special physique, really wasn't suitable to be a dazzling star. He should be as low-key as possible.

"What we can do is plan out suitable Star Techniques for him in his limited number of Star Slots, and build him into an iron barrel, making him stronger and stronger." Xia Yan's voice softened as she gently comforted Han Jiangxue.

"He only has 7 Star Slots left now, no, 6. We must leave one Star Slot to capture a Star Pet. We must carefully consider the choice of Star Pet, it's too important for him."

Xia Yan sighed. "Compared to Awakened like us with 28 or 30 Star Slots, his Star Slots are too precious."

Han Jiangxue was silent, not responding.

In her heart, she was thinking about something else. She just hoped to find a powerful backer before Jiang Xiao completely exposed his special abilities.

Jiang Xiao's ability to upgrade the quality of Star Techniques was indeed heaven-defying, but at the same time, it would attract the covetousness of those with ulterior motives.

Hopefully, Jiang Xiao wouldn't be assassinated by Awakened from other countries while various groups were fighting over him.

In the silence, Jiang Xiao had already changed into a neat camouflage uniform, replenished the supplies in his marching bag, and walked out of the locker room.

"Chatting for so long? You haven't changed your equipment yet. It's especially cold there." Jiang Xiao looked at Han Jiangxue in her white dress and said.

"Mm." Han Jiangxue's mood was complicated. She gave a faint "Mm" and turned to walk into the women's locker room.

Jiang Xiao didn't notice anything was wrong, after all, Han Jiangxue had always been like this.

"Hey, kid, since you've decided to join our team, I need to explain our Star Techniques, as well as our combat characteristics and habits," Xia Yan said.

"Okay." Jiang Xiao nodded obediently. In the past few days of fighting, he had also gained a rough understanding of Xia Yan. Don't look at her as a woman, but she was a violent close-combat warrior.

That great blade had extremely strong lethality, and her movements were extremely flexible, always saving Jiang Xiao's life at the last moment. In Jiang Xiao's heart, he had defined Xia Yan as an "agile-type warrior."

"Warrior, 28 Star Slots, 2 Bronze 5 Silver, the Star Map is a two-handed greatsword," Xia Yan said softly.

"I know all this, why emphasize the shape of the Star Map?" Jiang Xiao asked, puzzled.

"Your sister didn't tell you?" Xia Yan was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and a mischievous smile appeared on her face. "That's right, she thought you were a weakling."

Jiang Xiao: "......"

Xia Yan reached out her elbow and rested it on Jiang Xiao's shoulder, smiling and saying, "When the Star Slots in your Star Map are all lit up, and your total Star Power reaches the Star Sea Stage, or even the Starry Sky Stage, you can achieve Star Transformation into Weapon."

"Star Transformation into Weapon?" Jiang Xiao tried hard to prop up his shoulders. If he was pressed down by her, he would lose face. Speaking of which, why was this woman's body so heavy? She clearly had such a good figure... Could it be that the great blade was very heavy?

"Yes, you can refine your Star Map, making it your weapon, or your closest partner. These are still relatively far away from us, but, the shape of most people's Star Maps can determine the person's future direction," Xia Yan said. "It's best to choose a profession that fits your Star Map."

"For example, me, the most suitable profession for me is a warrior who can wield a two-handed sword, so the weapon I use now is so strange." Xia Yan's words cleared up the doubts in Jiang Xiao's mind.

He knew it, the great blade in this woman's hand was too abrupt. Who would choose this kind of combat tool normally?

Wait...

Han Jiangxue's Star Map was a raging white flame. Obviously, the path that was more in line with her was the ranged magic system Awakened, and Han Jiangxue was also following this path obediently.

But what about Jiang Xiao?

Jiang Xiao's Star Map was the "Bei Dou Jiu Xing" (Nine Stars of the Big Dipper)?

What did this mean?

Both young ladies thought that Jiang Xiao was a healing-type Awakened, so the Star Map was so strange.

But Jiang Xiao knew, he was not a healing-type Awakened, he was an all-profession Awakened, who could absorb any Star Bead and any Star Technique.

So what profession was the most compatible with the "Bei Dou Jiu Xing" Star Map?

To put it nicely, it's called "Bei Dou Jiu Xing", to put it bluntly, the shape is a "spoon."

It could even be regarded as a "?".

Whenever Jiang Xiao turned on his Inner Vision Star Map, he would feel the world's full of malice.

He always felt that his Star Map was mocking him.

Every time he opened the Star Map, he was greeted with a "?".

Star Map: ?

Jiang Xiao: "......"

......

It was clearly nine Star Slots, but he had to gild his face and lean towards the "Bei Dou Qi Xing" (Seven Stars of the Big Dipper).

Jiang Xiao, who had abandoned his fantasies, decisively chose the spoon between the shape "spoon" and the shape "question mark".

If I really become a great god in the future and achieve Star Transformation into Weapon, am I supposed to fight with a spoon?

Could it be...

Jiang Xiao's eyes lit up.

Could it be that I am Yungerer?
