Chapter 9: The Third Eye

“No good!”

The creatures that were prostrating themselves towards the center all looked at Chu Fan.

Chu Fan was greatly alarmed and quickly retreated.

However, his whole body seemed to be fixed in place, unable to move an inch.

“What’s going on? I can’t move!”

In his shock, Chu Fan’s thoughts raced.

He had been undergoing the test of the divine pillar in the Divine Order Hall.

After the divine pillar asked him if he insisted on becoming an Asura, and he answered ‘yes’, he came here and saw this bizarre scene.

Could it be… everything here is related to the Asura profession?

Thinking of this, Chu Fan took a deep breath and looked at the strange creatures.

“These aren’t the legendary Asura, are they?” Chu Fan swallowed.

At this moment, the creature closest to Chu Fan stood up from its prostrate position and slowly walked towards him.

As it got closer, Chu Fan noticed that its body was gradually growing larger.

From the size of an ordinary human, it transformed into a two-meter-tall creature.

When it reached Chu Fan, its body had already grown to three meters, with bulging muscles and black blood vessels all over. At such a close distance, Chu Fan could even see the blood flowing in the black blood vessels.

This creature brought its enormous head close to Chu Fan’s face, its third eye constantly rotating, as if confirming something.

Chu Fan’s nerves were taut, not daring to breathe.

“atasga.”

Suddenly, the strange creature spoke a word.

Chu Fan was horrified; this creature could actually speak?

Immediately after, this creature turned its head and roared at a group of prostrating creatures in the distance: “atasga, Muwa.”

Confusion appeared in the eyes of the kneeling creatures in the distance.

“atasga, Muwa.” The giant creature standing in front of Chu Fan roared again.

This roar made those creatures collectively snap back to their senses, shouting in unison: “atasga, Muwa.”

“atasga, Muwa.”

“atasga, Muwa.”

“……”

Listening to hundreds of strange creatures simultaneously shout this phrase, Chu Fan felt a chill down his spine.

He saw… excitement and madness in the eyes of those creatures.

Excitement, madness?

“Why do these creatures become excited and mad when they see me?” Chu Fan wondered.

In an instant, a feeling of dizziness came over him.

The scene before him completely vanished, returning to darkness.

Chu Fan immediately sensed that he was back.

Back inside the Divine Order Hall.

“What was that place just now?”

Chu Fan was filled with lingering fear.

He could feel that any one of the creatures inside, if released, would be far stronger than Four Greats mentors.

And there were hundreds of such creatures there.

What was most terrifying was the giant unknown entity in the center of the plaza.

What exactly was that thing?

Why did those three-eyed beings prostrate themselves before it?

And why was it confined there?

What kind of place was that plaza?

A series of questions flashed through his mind.

As he was thinking, a mechanical voice suddenly came.

“You have successfully transferred to Asura, opening the Professional panel, and simultaneously opening the transfer list. You can view your ranking on the transfer list.”

“Do you wish to hide your name on the transfer list?”

Chu Fan nodded directly: “Yes.”

No matter what, his profession was special, so he had to hide his personal information.

“Please choose an ID for your name on the list.” The mechanical voice continued.

ID?

Chu Fan thought for a moment, then said: “Let’s use ‘Stranger’.”

This was the online name he had used since his previous life, after struggling in a foreign land.

And in this other world, this ID was even more fitting.

As his voice fell, a blue light screen appeared before Chu Fan.

It was just like the light screens of Jiang Chuhe and the others before.

【Name】: Stranger

【Age】: 18

【Profession】: Asura

【Aptitude】: S

【Level】: 1 (0.00%)

【Strength】: 20

【Intelligence】: 20

【Agility】: 20

【Endurance】: 20

【Spirit】: 5

【Equipment】: None

【Skill】: Wave Perception (Tier 1 89%)

“Spirit?”

Chu Fan noticed that, compared to other people’s panels, his own panel had an additional Spirit attribute.

“Could this be an attribute unique to Asura?”

Without thinking much, Chu Fan continued to look down, until he saw the annotation behind the skill, and his heart was suddenly filled with joy.

Skill!

To appear on the Professional panel, it was clear that Wave Perception was indeed Asura’s Professional skill.

Moreover, his Wave Perception skill had already reached Tier 1 89%.

It should be related to his nightly training!

“Very good!” Chu Fan’s lips slowly curved upwards.

Finally… this step was complete.

From today onwards, he would be a hidden Professional, an Asura!

However, there were also things he was not satisfied with.

He didn’t expect that he would only have S-level aptitude.

Since losing his sight, he had already become proficient in perceiving fluctuations within a ten-meter radius, which had almost become his instinct.

Although the range was limited, one should know, how long had he been blind?

To reach this stage in just over a year, if this wasn't aptitude, what was aptitude?

However, the Divine Order Hall’s evaluation of him was only S-level.

Chu Fan had originally thought he should be of the highest SSS-level aptitude.

He had that confidence.

He didn’t know what standards the Divine Order Hall used to give evaluations.

“Do you wish to view the transfer list?” the mechanical voice said.

“View.” Chu Fan didn’t dwell on it too much. Aptitude could determine a person’s upper limit, but it wasn’t absolute.

Historically, there have been many Professionals with only A-level aptitude who eventually became powerful figures.

The Professional panel formed by the light screen rippled like water, then reformed again.

Huaxia Transfer List:

Time: Huaxia Calendar Year 3024

First: Beijing No. 1 Middle School, Name: Chen Haoyu, Profession: Exorcist (Hidden Professional), Aptitude: SSS

Second: Magic City Affiliated Middle School, Name: Yasuo (ID), Profession: Wandering Swordsman (Hidden Professional), Aptitude: SSS

Third: Beijing Experimental Middle School, Name: Qi Tian Dasheng (ID), Profession: Traveler (Hidden Professional), Aptitude: SSS

Fourth: Luoyang No. 5 Middle School, Name: Li Ao, Profession: Abyssal Lurker (Hidden Professional), Aptitude: SSS

......

Looking at the names on the list, Chu Fan’s expression became solemn.

Yang City was too small.

Across all of Huaxia, there were too many people more outstanding than him.

Suddenly, a huge wave surged in his heart.

No!

“This isn’t a dream, this is reality, why can I see?”

Chu Fan tried to look at other places.

A layer of red mist seemed to shroud the air, making everything appear somewhat dim.

Chu Fan looked towards the distant hall entrance, where classmates waiting for their transfer were standing.

“I… I can see?” Chu Fan’s heart trembled, “Could it be that I’ve fully awakened my ‘Mind’s Eye’?”

Suddenly at this moment, he looked at the divine pillar, the golden pillar acting as a mirror, reflecting Chu Fan’s appearance within it.

“This…”

Chu Fan saw himself in the divine pillar, a single eye open on his forehead.

A red eye!

The third eye!

Exactly the same third eye as the creatures in that space just now!

“Is this… my eye?” Chu Fan murmured in a lost voice.

After taking a deep breath, he shook off his thoughts and stopped overthinking.

Regardless, being able to successfully transfer and now being able to see, this was a good thing!

As for this third eye, whether it had any side effects, he could only take it one step at a time.

“I don’t need to worry about those creatures for now; they don’t seem to have any ill intent towards me. I’ll have a chance to seek help on the Dark Web later.”

Chu Fan mused, “Hmm, it’s just… this eye must not be seen by others.”
