"Ha!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha."

Unable to hold back his laughter after hearing what he said, Bai Xuanshi burst out laughing. As he laughed, it seemed like a barrier had been broken, and the entire class couldn't help but laugh along.

How could it be so funny this early in the morning?

Performing a magic trick and getting countered, even being called a nemesis, ha ha ha ha ha.

Wait, hold on, when did these two learn magic? And why does it feel so off?

Sun Qiang hadn't realized anything was wrong yet, only looking at everyone with dissatisfaction.

"What's so funny?"

"Laughing at your nemesis, treating Lele as your nemesis, you're really something," Bai Xuanshi said with a laugh.

"It's just a magic trick, who can't do a couple of tricks?"

"Watch, your big brother Bai will show you."

As he spoke, Bai Xuanshi then grabbed the eraser floating in the air. After three seconds, the originally white eraser seemed to be coated with a layer of gold powder, emitting a golden glow.

"Huh?"

Sun Qiang's eyes widened again, his face full of confusion.

Seeing his confused look, Bai Xuanshi couldn't help but laugh again.

With the power of nature, he could use various elements in nature, including gold. Although the strength he could currently use was not high, the variety was rich.

Moreover, he could also sense that his abilities were constantly growing, and at a very fast speed.

After all, as a child of nature, he didn't need to actively improve his strength; as long as he was in nature, his abilities would quickly grow.

Of course, this was limited to Earth in this world. After leaving Earth, the speed would slow down or even pause, but the abilities he had mastered could still be used.

This was what he learned from the chat group after leaving the group chat last night.

"Cough, cough, since it's come to this, I won't pretend anymore."

"I originally wanted to live as an ordinary person, but it only led to distance."

"Let's be honest, I'm actually a Burn-Burn Fruit user."

"Fire, rise!"

As he spoke, a classmate stood up, and a flame rose from his hand, bringing a wave of heat.

"Since you're not pretending anymore, neither will I."

"Sigh, I never thought a small class could have so many superpowered people, but I'm not ordinary either."

"You all are showing off, so I can't hide anymore."

"Feeling down, I originally wanted to play it low and develop stealthily, but since you all are like this, I can't hide anymore."

"The world has changed, I can no longer hide my identity."

"With thunder, shatter the darkness!"

"Winter has come, ice, eternal and uncorrupted!"

"Damn, are elements so cheap? Why am I the one who got beastification?"

"You, a guy, got beastification? And a rabbit? What a waste of resources."

"Damn! Do you think I wanted to?"

"......"

As Bai Xuanshi and others displayed their abilities, the class instantly turned into a chaotic scene. One by one, those who had awakened their superpowers couldn't hold back and showed off their abilities.

Psychokinesis, wind elements, fire, ice, thunder, beastification... and the most common were elemental abilities?!

And Sun Qiang, who originally thought he was the chosen one, was completely stunned. His emotions shifted from excitement and showing off to confusion, disbelief, and finally, despair.

"You all have awakened superpowers?"

"This isn't how the script goes, I thought I was the main character!"

"Are superpowers so cheap now?!"

Sun Qiang, feeling utterly hopeless, laid his head on the desk, even a bit embarrassed.

This wasn't just a failed attempt at showing off; it was a social death. Everyone but him had managed to stay low, making him the laughingstock.

"You just haven't read enough novels. After awakening superpowers, you should think about what you've awakened."

"Obviously, it's because of the seven-star alignment last night."

"How could such a rare astronomical phenomenon only benefit us, who couldn't even see it, and only one person awaken?"

"It must be for the entire Earth."

Zhang Wei also couldn't help but laugh.

He had thought about whether any of his classmates might have awakened, but he never expected someone to use a magic trick as a pretext to show off and get countered.

Ha ha ha ha ha.

Hearing Zhang Wei's words, Sun Qiang, who was already feeling hopeless, felt even more hopeless.

Not just him, but other classmates who thought they were the main characters and believed they were the only ones to awaken also turned their heads in embarrassment.

They were grateful to Sun Qiang for his efforts; otherwise, they might have been the ones to suffer a social death.

Who could have thought that superpowers, something so rare and only found in novels and movies, would suddenly become so common?

Most people thought they would be the chosen ones.

Especially since they were students, in their final year of high school, how could they have the time to gather "information"?

Zhang Wei and Bai Xuanshi were special.

Of course, they were still better off. The most confused were those who hadn't awakened any superpowers.

Seeing their classmates use various abilities to show off, they were filled with confusion.

What's going on?

It's not magic? You're really doing this?

The seven-star alignment can awaken superpowers? But why didn't I awaken?

Is the world evolving without me knowing?

Bai Xuanshi glanced around and saw that about fifteen people hadn't awakened, out of the forty-three in their class, indicating a high awakening rate.

As for why some didn't awaken, if some can, some can't.

There's no need to worry about it.

"I took a quick look, and about half of our class has awakened superpowers."

"And the reason for awakening, as Wei said, is the seven-star alignment."

"According to novels, the seven-star alignment should bring a revival of spiritual energy, and it's not just for humans, but perhaps for the entire world."

"So without a doubt, the next era will be a new one, a global evolution era."

"And we are the witnesses and even the creators of this era."

"In that case, we are truly lucky to experience such things in our lifetimes."

The class president couldn't help but sigh, his eyes full of excitement.

Not just him, but all those who had awakened superpowers felt the same way. They were full of hope for the future, eager to create their own era.

As for those who hadn't awakened superpowers... every era has ordinary people. Perhaps for them, it's just a continuation of their ordinary lives.

But the future is full of variables, and no one can predict their future accurately.
