Chapter 2: Awakening the OmniClass God System
A sharp, metallic chime rang in Lei Feng's mind—clear, resonant, like the unsheathing of a divine blade. Time itself seemed to pause. The world froze in place.
The sound wasn't heard through his ears, but felt deep within his soul.
Then came the voice.
Calm. Cold. Monotone. Yet it echoed with an immense, unyielding authority. It was the kind of voice that belonged to an ancient will—timeless and unknowable.
> "Ding! The OmniClass God System has awakened. Initiating Host Synchronization…"
Before he could process the words, a surge of invisible force flooded his body.
His muscles tensed. His knees buckled. Breath caught in his throat as the air shimmered before him like a mirage. The world tilted—as if gravity itself had shifted.
For an instant, reality twisted around him. His body became the nexus of some great cosmic reconfiguration.
Then it appeared.
A translucent screen hovered before him, suspended in midair. Glowing silver glyphs pulsed softly, each character vibrating with an arcane rhythm—like the heartbeat of a slumbering god.

"A system... like in those web novels?" Lei Feng whispered, eyes wide.
He instinctively reached out. His fingers passed through the floating screen. It felt cold—not to his skin, but to his soul. As if an ancient presence was evaluating him from beyond the veil.
This wasn't a dream.
This was real.
His gaze flicked down the panel, heartbeat quickening.
> "Strength: 2. Agility: 1. Endurance: 3…"
He clenched his fists, lips tightening.
> "These numbers… I'm weak."
Before that thought could take root, a new prompt flashed.
> [Host Classification in Progress…]
Analyzing Host's potential… Scanning innate attributes…
Suddenly, an immense pressure descended upon him. Not physical—spiritual.
It felt like the heavens themselves were peering into the deepest corners of his being.
Lei Feng gasped.
His soul felt exposed. Vulnerable. As if dissected under divine scrutiny.
> [Analysis Complete.]
---
━━━『 Talent Assessment 』━━
Talent Rank: ???
Mana Core: ??? (Special)
Evaluation: Insufficient data to determine exact potential.
Note: Due to anomalies within the Host's physique, further analysis required.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

"What does that even mean…?" Lei Feng muttered, frowning.
> "Not even the system can analyze me?"
A strange unease crept into his chest. Not fear—but something deeper. A gnawing uncertainty.
Was this a sign of greatness?
Or a terrifying omen?
Before he could dwell on it, the screen shifted again.
> [Due to the Host's special condition, an initial ability is being generated…]
His breath caught.
The system was digging deeper, not just into his soul—but into something primal.
> [Ability Unlocked: 『Indomitable Will』]
A sudden warmth surged in his chest, spreading outward in ripples—like a stone dropped into still water. A new panel unfolded before his eyes.
---
━━━『 Indomitable Will 』━━━
Description: When facing overwhelming odds, the Host's mental and physical resilience drastically increase.
Effect: The lower the Host's chances of survival, the stronger the Host becomes.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
---
Lei Feng stared at the screen, equal parts awe and disbelief.
> "The stronger the danger… the stronger I become?"
Realization struck like lightning.
This wasn't an ability born from peace or prosperity. It was forged in despair. It thrived in chaos. It demanded suffering.
He exhaled slowly.
> "...That's messed up," he muttered under his breath.
But before he could reflect further, another alert echoed through his mind.
> [Congratulations! As the first Host of the OmniClass God System, you have received a Gift Pack!]
A spark of excitement lit his eyes.
> "A gift pack? That's exactly what I need."
"Open it," he commanded, hope and urgency mingling in his voice.
> [Gift Pack Opened.]
[Reward: Inherited Memory of the Previous Host.]
"…Huh?"
The words struck like thunder.
> "Wait… what?!"
Suddenly—pain.
White-hot and searing. His mind was yanked into a maelstrom of sensations. A flood of images, voices, and emotions crashed into him.
Blood. Screams. Despair.

━━━『 Ling Chen's Memories 』━━━
Ling Chen.
The name echoed through his mind.
That was the name of this body's previous owner.
He had been adopted at age twelve by the prestigious Ling Family. But his true name—his real name—had always been...
> "Lei Feng…" he whispered, stunned.
At twelve, Ling Chen awakened a rare High-Grade (Purple) talent—a miracle for someone born in the slums. In a world ruled by talent, this should've been his ticket to greatness.
There were seven recognized talent ranks:
Low-Grade (Gray) – The weakest.
Common-Grade (Green) – Acceptable.
Intermediate-Grade (Blue) – Solid foundation.
High-Grade (Purple) – Gateway to genius.
Elite-Grade (Gold) – Reserved for nobility.
Exceptional-Grade (Red) – Once-in-a-generation.
Supreme-Grade (Black/Platinum) –Near-mythical.
With his High-Grade Talent, Ling Chen should have soared.
But he didn't.
Despite endless training and consuming countless mana stones, he remained stuck—forever Level 1. Mocked. Discarded.
Only one person remained at his side—LingMei, his adoptive sister. An Elite Grade Gold-Tier prodigy who fought for him, protected him, loved him.
But her support only painted a bigger target on his back.
MasaruGenji—young master of a powerful clan—coveted Ling Mei and despised Ling Chen.
He tormented him. Beat him. Humiliated him.
Until one day...
He left Ling Chen broken—on the brink of death.
And in that moment...
Lei Feng awoke.
---
Lei Feng's eyes snapped open.
Cold. Sharp. Focused.
> "That was… brutal."
Compared to this, his previous life had been a peaceful dream. This body had suffered. Endured betrayal. Died in injustice.
And now, it belonged to him.
A new screen shimmered into view.
> [Main Quest Generated.]
---
━━━『 Main Quest – Vengeance of the Fallen 』━━━

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Lei Feng's heart pounded.
> "Six months…"
That was all the time he had.
Failuremeantdeath. Not just of the body—but of the soul.
He could already see them—Masaru's smug grin. The Ling Elders' cold eyes. The whispers of mockery.
> "They think I'm a joke. A failure…"
His gaze hardened.
> "I'll show them."
But then, a final question gripped his mind:
> "If Ling Chen couldn't level up… how can I?"
As if waiting, the system responded.
> [Leveling System Explained:]
Complete Quests.
Defeat Enemies.
Earn EXP.
Level Up.
Grow Stronger.
Simple.
Brutal.
Then another screen appeared.

Lei Feng exhaled, slow and steady.
The path was clear.
No more doubts. No more dreams.
If the world only respected strength—then he would become strong.
No matter what it took.
He took one step forward.
Then dropped to the ground.
And began.
