As she spoke, Su Qianqian smiled and pushed him in another direction.

"The furniture isn't urgent, the house isn't going anywhere."

Su Qianqian pointed to the magnificent building in the center of the city—the Career Hall:

"You're already level 15, this is the first major turning point in your career. Go and complete the career awakening quest first, that's the important thing."

In this game's setting, players can undergo their first awakening after reaching level 15, which grants them more powerful core skills.

"Listen to me, go quickly, I'll wait for you at home." Su Qianqian nudged him like she was coaxing a child.

"Alright."

Su Yu smiled helplessly, but felt a warmth in his heart.

My sister is always like this, valuing his future above all else.

"..."

Dawn City Class Hall, Berserker Branch Hall

Su Yu pushed open the heavy black iron door, and a strong smell of blood hit him.

This is the holy land of berserkers.

The hall was filled with muscular, shirtless male NPCs, some forging massive stone locks, others roaring and clashing against each other, the air thick with the scent of male hormones.

For a moment, Su Yu's stunningly beautiful berserker form created a tremendous visual impact.

At the deepest part of the hall sat a giant who was nearly three meters tall.

Berserker Mentor Rek

Covered in wounds, carrying a giant sword wider than a door, he was enjoying a whole roasted lamb.

"Mentor, I'm here to accept the awakening quest."

Su Yu stepped forward. Although he was only one-third the size of the other person, his aura was by no means weak.

"Um?"

Rex put down the lamb leg in his hand and looked Su Yu up and down with his big, round eyes.

A female berserker?

But when he sensed the rich blood energy emanating from Su Yu, Rex's eyes lit up:

"Such intense killing intent! Such pure blood energy!"

"Hahaha! Not bad! Finally, a decent prospect has arrived!"

Rex stood up laughing, and patted Su Yu's shoulder heavily with his large, fan-like hand:

"I see you have extraordinary physique; you're born to be a berserker! As long as you have enough strength, I will teach you the ultimate berserker technique—shattering bones!"

"Come, let me see just how much your power has grown!"

Rick looked on with anticipation.

In his view, a newcomer with such terrifying blood energy must also have strength attributes that absolutely crush those of the same level.

Su Yu touched his nose, his expression somewhat strange, but he still opened his power panel as instructed.

Rex leaned closer, looking expectantly at the Strength section.

Rick's smile froze.

He rubbed his eyes, thinking he was seeing things. No, how could it be so low?

It's not even as hard as the leftover lamb bones he ate.

Then, his gaze slowly moved down and landed on the Agility column.

Suddenly, I understood.

"..."

The air suddenly became quiet.

The noise in the entire Berserker branch hall seemed to disappear at that moment.

A few seconds later.

"You bastard!!!"

A deafening roar erupted, and Rick, trembling with rage, overturned the table in front of him.

"Is that all the power you've got?! You dare call yourself a berserker?!"

"You put all your attribute points into Agility?! Are you some kind of spy sent by an assassin?!"

Rex pointed at Su Yu's nose, spitting as he spoke, his admiration instantly turning into extreme anger and disappointment.

"This is a desecration of the Berserker's Spirit!!"

"What is a berserker? It's power! It's destruction! It's overwhelming force! It's smashing enemies into mincemeat!!"

"Look at you! You're as skinny as a monkey, yet you run faster than a rabbit! You're a spineless dog! A coward who only knows how to run away!"

"Get out! Get out of here! I, Rex, will never perform an awakening ritual for such a heretic!"

Faced with the mentor's fury, the surrounding NPCs and players were terrified and fell silent.

However, Su Yu, who was at the center of the storm, simply pursed his lips calmly.

"Are you done talking?"

Su Yu raised his head, his peach blossom eyes showing no fear, but rather a sharp glint in them:

"Mentor, who says a berserker has to be a clumsy brute?"

"If you have absolute power but can't hit anyone, then you're just a waste."

"And under my blade..." Su Yu slowly pressed down on the hilt of his sword, and a fierce sword aura suddenly erupted from his body: "As long as I am fast enough, I can unleash a thousand strikes in a second."

"Isn't a thousand tiny injuries, accumulated together, more deadly than your clumsy strike?"

"you......"

Rick was stunned.

He looked at the frail girl in front of him, and at the obsessive and insane flame in her eyes.

That look in my eyes... it's so familiar.

Rick's anger gradually subsided, replaced by a deep sense of recollection and apprehension.

He remained silent for a long time, then sat back down on the stone chair, his voice becoming low and deep:

"A hundred years ago, there was a madman who said the same thing to you."

"He also complained that the greatsword was too slow, and he also pursued the ultimate speed. He abandoned defense and strength, and trained himself into a red ghost."

"And then?" Su Yu asked.

"And then?" Rick sneered, a flicker of fear in his eyes. "Then he went mad."

"Extreme speed brought with it an extreme desire to kill. His mind was completely devoured, turning him into a monster who only knew how to kill—Shura."

"To prevent him from destroying the continent, the Holy Temple gathered ten Holy Knights and barely managed to seal him in... the Upside-Down Tower."

At this point, Rick gave Su Yu a deep look, pulled out a tattered black parchment from his pocket, and threw it on the ground: "Since you insist on taking this evil path, I can't teach you."

"Take this and go to the abandoned cemetery in the west of the city. Find that upside-down tower."

"If you manage to meet that madman alive, perhaps... he'll like you, a fellow human being."

Ding!

[System Notification: You have triggered the unique hidden job advancement quest!]

Searching for the Forgotten Asura

[Quest Description: The Berserker Mentor has rejected your request for awakening and has directed you to the Forbidden Tower of the Upside Down, where a legendary speed demon is imprisoned.]

[Note: This journey is fraught with peril; once you successfully awaken, there is no turning back.]

Su Yu bent down and picked up the parchment. Looking at the ominous black aura emanating from it, a bright smile appeared on his lips.

Asura?

Speed ​​demon?

"This sounds..." Su Yu flicked the parchment: "much more exciting than anything like crushing bones to dust."

He put away the quest items and gave Rek a standard berserker salute:

"Thanks, big guy."

After saying that, Su Yu turned around and strode out of the professional hall under the complex gazes of the muscular men in the room.

Outside the door, the sun is just right.

However, from this moment on, one will embark on a path destined to be filled with blood and darkness... the path of Asura.
