"Stop, stop for a moment, Xiao, Xiao Pi..." Han Jiangxue propped her elbows on the dining table, her hands supporting her forehead, and spoke softly.

Wow,

Speaking like this is so gentle,

So soft and pleasant to the ear,

Why be so cold and icy all the time?

Jiang Xiao timely stopped, suddenly realizing that the star skill he obtained might not be a proper ability?

What about restoring teammates' vitality? Healing their wounds?

Why is it so effective at flirting with girls?

The atmosphere in the kitchen was extremely awkward, and for a moment, the room was deathly quiet.

Jiang Xiao also knew that girls have thin skins, so he broke the silence with a joke, saying, "It seems you've received my blessing."

Han Jiangxue suddenly raised her head and gave Jiang Xiao a fierce glare.

If it were ten minutes ago, Jiang Xiao could guarantee that such a glare would be a cold, disdainful look, piercing his nerves.

But now, in this state of Han Jiangxue, her glare was soft and mild, like a sister who has no combat ability but still wants to maintain her authority in front of her younger brother.

The power of the bronze-quality "Blessing" is actually so great?

What about the "Blessing" after upgrading? It might even be out of this world?

Jiang Xiao carefully recalled, according to Jiang Xiaopi's memory, the quality of star skills and star pets is divided into such categories.

Above bronze quality are silver, then gold, platinum, and the highest known quality, diamond.

In Jiang Xiaopi's memory, there are roughly five levels of quality, with bronze being the lowest and diamond the highest. According to online information, it is said that there are even higher levels above diamond, but the world does not know. It is estimated that only those god-like figures possess higher-quality star skills and star pets.

The world does not know?

But Jiang Xiao, who came from another world, knows!

Do I need to ask?

Above diamond is Master!

Above Master is King!

...

"Truly lucky, it's a medical skill." Han Jiangxue, who had received a full blessing, had her cold voice soften, "The Beijiang region is rich in the White Ghost clan, but among the awakened, those who truly absorb the 'Blessing Skill' are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns."

"Uh-huh." Jiang Xiao knew he had been a bit mischievous earlier. As the head of the household, the girl had to maintain her authority, so he nodded obediently.

"No, you don't understand the value of medical skills." Han Jiangxue sighed lightly, looking at Jiang Xiao as if he were the foolish son of a landlord.

"Among a hundred awakened, there is probably only one with a medical skill. Such a special category of star skill is very hard to obtain. The world is full of violent output-type awakened and melee-type awakened, but medical-type awakened are extremely rare." Han Jiangxue seemed to have relaxed and opened up.

"Do you know how valuable an auxiliary-type, especially a medical-type star skill, is?"

Han Jiangxue continued, "After we graduate, we will join various institutions of the state. Most institutions have field personnel, and a four-person team is the basic configuration. Any awakened hopes that their four-person team has a medical-type awakened."

"A medical-type awakened represents the team's endurance, stable combat power, and can even save the team's lives in critical moments. Even if there is only one medical skill in their star map, it is enough."

Han Jiangxue looked at Jiang Xiao with admiration.

This was the first time Jiang Xiao, since opening his eyes, had seen this cold girl give him an approving look.

"Unfortunately, it's just a bronze-quality blessing." Han Jiangxue changed her tone, though her expression didn't change much, "I don't have to worry about your future anymore. Go to school normally, and after graduation, I'll help you find a hospital to work as a doctor. That's a way out."

Jiang Xiao: ???

Is my fate just decided by you?

This body just graduated from junior high? What was that saying?

I am the flower of the motherland now? As long as I work hard, I have infinite possibilities!

Jiang Xiaopi, Jiang Xiaopi, how much did you disappoint your sister?

I was planning to walk a path to become a god, but Han Jiangxue directly paved the way to the hospital for me?

Eh?

Wait a moment.

Speaking of which, being a doctor is actually pretty good. For things that normal medical methods can't solve, Jiang Xiao can solve them with star power and star skills.

In the future, as Jiang Xiao improves the quality of the "Blessing" skill, he might even save some critically ill patients, which would be a great deed.

Isn't this also a truly meaningful thing?

Thinking about this, Jiang Xiao couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He had only been here for less than two hours, experienced a world-shaking change, and accepted a lot of new things. He indeed needed some time to calm down and think about his future.

After all, Jiang Xiao was not a naive 16-year-old boy but a 25-year-old adult with a mature mind.

After accepting and integrating into this bizarre world, planning his life and finding his true aspirations became Jiang Xiao's top priority.

Being a doctor is indeed noble and beneficial to society. But if it's just this kind of job, isn't it too conventional?

Since I accidentally entered this bizarre world, I should start a bizarre journey, or it wouldn't be worth coming here?

Uh...

Otherwise, it wouldn't be worth the slap that sent me here.

Star power, star skills, star pets, plus the dimensional worlds described on the internet, all kinds of things await Jiang Xiao to try.

And this body has an inner vision star map. If Jiang Xiao really chose a conventional job, it would be a waste of talent.

Han Jiangxue looked at Jiang Xiao, who remained calm, and was slightly surprised. If it were usual, the younger brother would have already "risen up," shouting that he wouldn't be a doctor, wouldn't work, and wanted to go out and wander.

But now, Jiang Xiao was unusually quiet.

Maybe it was because he had just obtained a star skill and hadn't digested the result yet.

Han Jiangxue stood up and walked to Jiang Xiao, extending a hand to touch his head but paused in mid-air.

The slender white hand hesitated for a moment and then retracted, saying, "Don't show off, and don't shoot those messy videos. Practice your star skill and absorb star power well."

Saying this, Han Jiangxue walked to the kitchen door.

Whoosh...

A 172 cm tall, somewhat thin boy suddenly appeared at the kitchen door, blocking Han Jiangxue's way.

Han Jiangxue was taken aback, her beautiful eyes staring directly into Jiang Xiao's dark eyes, but the voice came from the dining chair behind her.

"I just awakened, but I know that awakened are categorized. An awakened with a low-quality medical star skill has a higher success rate in absorbing other high-quality medical-type star skills." Jiang Xiao continued,

"Those violent output-type awakened, even if they are talented, have more star slots, will probably never obtain medical-type star skills. Their bodies are not suitable for absorbing such skills."

Han Jiangxue's eyes widened slightly, looking down at the Jiang Xiao in front of her, slowly turning to look at the Jiang Xiao sitting on the dining chair behind her.

Illusion!?

The second star skill of the White Ghost Witch: Decoy!?

Han Jiangxue looked down at Jiang Xiao in a daze, one star, two skills!?

Such a situation has appeared in human history, but such lucky awakened are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns!

"You're afraid I'll be too popular." Jiang Xiao turned around, looking at the silent Han Jiangxue, analyzing, "You know my talent is not high, and I have very few star slots, but I am a medical-type awakened."

"You know that in the shortage of medical-type awakened, even if I am not strong, I might still be recruited into some institutions to participate in relatively dangerous missions."

Han Jiangxue leaned down slightly, extremely serious, "Don't use your second skill in front of outsiders when only one star in your star map is lit."

"No problem." Jiang Xiao nodded decisively.

"No problem?" Han Jiangxue raised an eyebrow in surprise. She thought that according to her brother's character, he would be more self-important and lawless, but he was obedient and compliant as usual.

"I have a condition." Jiang Xiao suddenly said.

"Condition?" Han Jiangxue nodded, no wonder this kid was so obedient, he must have something to ask of her, "Speak."

"I will work hard to train." Jiang Xiao looked up at Han Jiangxue, continuing, "When you go to the snowfield again, take me with you."

Looking at Jiang Xiao's extremely serious expression, Han Jiangxue responded expressionlessly, "Why should I agree?"

Jiang Xiao shrugged, "As a return, I can give you a few blessings."

Han Jiangxue quickly stopped him, "No, no need..."
