Perfect Villain Life: Universal Job Change

Chapter 4 - The Fallen Genius, Lin Feng



If it were just the second generation from Donghai Province, he could make some noise about it, but the big shots from the Imperial Capital…

In the past, with His Majesty the Emperor present, even big shots from the Imperial Capital wouldn’t dare openly violate the Empire’s laws. But His Majesty the Emperor has been missing for nearly twenty years…

Principal Lu looked at Chen Lingxi and Lin Feng and shook his head.

Seeing this, Lin Feng clenched his fists tightly, his teeth nearly grinding to dust. Was his future to be ruined just like that!?

No! Absolutely not! Ruining someone’s future is akin to killing their parents; he would never let that person go! He must make them pay!

Chen Lingxi’s pretty face was icy with anger that could not be dispelled. “I will investigate this matter. I refuse to believe that the Shenlong Empire has no rule of law!”

Lin Feng was her student, and whether out of a sense of justice or her responsibility as a teacher, she could not sit idly by!

Principal Lu glanced at Chen Lingxi and didn’t stop her. Others might not know Chen Lingxi’s identity, but as the principal of the First High School, he did. Chen Lingxi was the beloved daughter of Chen Beiguo, the Governor of Donghai Province!

As the Governor’s daughter, Chen Lingxi did not climb the ranks smoothly under her father’s arrangement like other elite children. Instead, she chose to become a teacher at the First High School, educating students.

However, this secret was known only to Principal Lu and a few school leaders. So if Chen Lingxi stepped in, she should be able to investigate thoroughly.

After all, Chen Beiguo was the Governor of Donghai Province, the ruler of a province, and highly favored by the Regent. Even if that person was from the Imperial Capital, they would have to pay some price, right?

Unless that person was a member of one of the five great families…

Seeing Chen Lingxi’s anger, Lin Feng felt a warmth in his heart. He didn’t know Teacher Chen’s exact identity, but he knew that Chen Lingxi had a significant background.

With Chen Lingxi’s figure, appearance, and intellectual charm, she had attracted quite a bit of unwanted attention. Among them were some second-generation individuals with extraordinary family backgrounds.

But soon, those people disappeared without a trace……

The awakening ceremony had to continue, and Lin Feng returned to his class’s lineup. Along the way, students looked at this fallen genius with complex expressions.

There was pity, sympathy, and even schadenfreude. Although Lin Feng was a genius student at the First High School and always ranked first in academics, his popularity at school was not great.

Many felt that Lin Feng…was pretentious.

“It’s all fate. What’s the use of good grades if you’re just a Non-Specialist…”

“An SS-level Non-Specialist, a rare combination indeed.”

The whispers of his classmates once again stiffened Lin Feng’s expression, filling him with depression, anger, and frustration!

Returning to his lineup, he secretly vowed that he would definitely avenge this injustice!! But up to now, he still didn’t know who that person was…

After an unknown period, the awakening ceremony at the First High School concluded.

This year’s students performed quite well, with a total of four S-level and twenty-two A-level professionals.

But when Principal Lu thought of Lin Feng, he felt extreme regret. S-level was excellent, but there were always a few each year. SS-level, however, was different; they were true super geniuses, rare once in decades, and could easily become national champions!

But now, it was wasted…

“Students, you have all awakened your professions. Regardless of the level, as long as you work hard, you will achieve something in the future. Remember, there are no trash professions; with effort, any profession can shine in its field.”

“The college entrance exam is just days away. Rest well and aim for great results, so you can enter your desired institutions and make your alma mater proud!”

With the ceremony over, students began to leave, heading home.

Chen Lingxi looked at Lin Feng, nodded, and said softly, “Don’t think too much. Focus on the college entrance exam. Although you failed the job change and became an SS-level Non-Specialist, you still have a chance to get into a good institution. I will ensure you get an explanation for this incident!”

“Thank you, teacher!” Lin Feng nodded heavily, feeling warmth in his heart.

Chen Lingxi had always admired and cared for him, and Lin Feng genuinely respected and… well, was quite fond of her.

He sneaked a glance at Chen Lingxi’s impressive figure…

After school, everyone returned home to their families.

Students prepared to leave school, having undergone their job changes. Many planned to team up for beginner dungeons, to gain experience and levels.

With the college entrance exam just days away, the more preparation, the better their chances of getting into a good institution!

“I’m a D-level Warrior, who’s joining?”

“We’ve got a tank and a healer; we need some DPS. Zhang Song, you’re a C-level Flame Mage, come on!”

Many students gathered at the school gate, shouting and creating a lively atmosphere. Those who awakened A-level and B-level combat professions were naturally popular, with everyone wanting to team up and connect with them.

Lin Feng, however, was forgotten. Before, as a genius with limitless potential, Lin Feng, despite his lack of popularity, still had people eager to ingratiate themselves with him.

But now, the world was cold…no one paid attention to Lin Feng. After all, without professional specialization, even as an SS-level Non-Specialist, his combat strength was weak, making him a burden to any team.

This contrast left Lin Feng very displeased.

“Lin Feng, want to join our team?” A girl with a pretty face approached, smiling at Lin Feng.

She was Lin Feng’s classmate, named Xie Ting, who had awakened as an A-level Blessed Priest. Seeing Lin Feng left out, she thought to help him. After all, they were classmates, and Lin Feng’s situation made her sympathetic.

Xie Ting was accompanied by several teammates, who seemed displeased but said nothing, though their expressions were scornful.

These words deeply stung Lin Feng.

Among them were people who had once been very polite and enthusiastic towards him, and he had even helped teach them! And now they treated him like this? A bunch of snobs who looked down on people!

Already depressed over his job change failure, Lin Feng was in an extremely sensitive state and was provoked by their expressions.

He couldn’t hold back any longer, letting out a cold laugh, “No need. Even if I failed my job change, I’m not someone you losers can latch onto!”
