Choosing a C-Class Hero: Three Years of Ridicule Across the Internet - Chapter 5
Chapter 5: Success Rate is Quite Disheartening
Why are the netizens in the live broadcast room revelling in the misfortune of others? Because most of them are ordinary people who have failed to match with hero talents.
Since they have failed, naturally, they don’t want to see others succeed. Of course, these dark thoughts are not something anyone would openly express.
…
On the school field, the students, unaware of the barrage, naturally didn’t know about the comments from the netizens.
At this moment, the bonding process was continuing.
“Zhang Hongfang.”
The head teacher once again called out a name.
A petite girl, upon hearing her name, quickly stood up and walked towards the stage.
It could be seen that this girl was a bit nervous. With each step, her footsteps were somewhat unsteady, as if she couldn’t find her balance.
When she reached the stage, there were fine beads of sweat on her fair forehead.
Seeing the girl’s nervous state, everyone thought she might be another person who failed to bond.
However, when her right hand touched the Hero Meteorite, after a short while, the black jade on the stage slightly lit up.
The energy monitoring device also shimmered with light.
It was a blue light.
Even though the sun had already risen in the sky at this point, the dazzling brilliance of the blue light couldn’t be concealed.
“Blue light? It’s a B-level hero. She succeeded in bonding!”
“I wonder which hero’s talent she bonded with? If it’s B1, that’s impressive!”
“It probably isn’t B1. There are rumours that bonding with B1 is no easier than bonding with A-level heroes.”
“The second one succeeded in bonding? Envious!”
“Tch, it’s just the talent of a B-level hero. What’s there to envy? In the mysterious realm, such talents are the most dangerous.”
“Sigh! If only I had chosen a B-level hero back then as my bonding partner…”
Seeing someone succeed in bonding, the students on the field brightened up one after another.
The teachers and leaders on the stage were also visibly excited! Although the blue light indicated a B-level hero, the talent of B1 was still very promising.
Moreover, she was the second student to succeed, undoubtedly setting a positive tone and boosting the morale of the students!
When the girl named Zhang Hongfang opened her eyes, it could be seen that she had a happy expression on her face.
After a brief inquiry by the head teacher, he immediately announced loudly:
“Zhang Hongfang, successful bonding!”
“The hero she bonded with has the codename B1.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole venue erupted with numerous exclamations.
The talent of the female hero B1 was quite good, somewhat similar to S2.
Although not as powerful as S2, it was still a tremendous superpower with great potential, worth investing significant effort into developing.
Furthermore, B1’s talent had a high bonding difficulty, even higher than some A-level heroes!
Considering Zhang Hongfang’s poor state when she went on stage, her success in bonding was nothing short of incredible luck.
From now on, her destiny would change. As long as she didn’t fall in the mysterious realm, she would at least become an elite member of society, enjoying superior resources that ordinary people couldn’t access.
Thinking of this, many students looked at Zhang Hongfang with envy and longing.
…
In the live broadcast room, there were also numerous comments expressing envy, jealousy, and admiration.
“Woah, really B1? How did she bond so easily?”
“Is she lying?”
“Who dares to lie about this? Falsifying information about your bonded hero will result in at least ten years of imprisonment!”
“B1’s talent is the ability to control the wind, right?”
“Yes, she can create and control hurricanes. Over in the United States, there is a strong individual with the B1 talent. Not only can he manipulate the wind to fly, but he can also create terrifying tornadoes, with combat power approaching that of a level five expert!”
“As long as this girl doesn’t fall in the upcoming mysterious realm, she’ll at least become a powerful woman in the future!”
“Envious! I also chose B1 as my bonded hero back then. Why did I fail?”
“Seeing how nervous this girl was before going on stage, I thought she would definitely fail! Didn’t expect her to succeed.”
“Sigh! Fate is so unfair!”
…
After Zhang Hongfang stepped down from the stage, several teachers from the university admissions office suddenly rushed out from the crowd, surrounding her. They made various promises on the spot, trying to recruit Zhang Hongfang into their schools.
They were actually starting to recruit people right on the spot…
This impatience left many students dumbfounded and astonished.
At this moment, everyone wanted to become the next Zhang Hongfang!
Witnessing all this, Chen Ye had a hopeful expression on his face.
However, what others hoped for were A-level heroes or even S-level heroes, at worst, outstanding among B-level heroes.
What he hoped for was a C-level hero, widely recognized as a waste…
Next, the bonding of hero talents continued.
However, fortunate individuals like Zhang Hongfang were few and far between.
After all the students in Class 1 had completed their tests, only nine of them succeeded in bonding.
Keep in mind that there were a total of seventy-six students in Class 1, making the success rate only one-seventh, including Zhang Hongfang.
Moreover, out of the nine successful bonds, only two were with A-level heroes, while the remaining seven were all with B-level heroes.
As for S-level heroes, there wasn’t a single one!
From this, it could be concluded how low the success rate for bonding with heroes was.
Even so, the class teacher of Class 1 was still overjoyed.
In his class, there were two successful bonds with A-level heroes, and Zhang Hongfang successfully bonded with B1…
This result was already quite impressive.
Haven’t you seen even the principal nodding in satisfaction?
Subsequently, the students from Class 2 began their tests.
That was Chen Ye’s class.
“Zhou Min, bonding failed…”
“Wang Yuqing, bonding failed…”
“Zhang Chao, bonding failed…”
…
Class 2, for some reason, didn’t have the auspicious start that Class 1 had. Not having an opening success like Class 1 was one thing, but what surprised everyone even more was that more than thirty students in a row failed to bond.
Not a single success.
Even some of the students that Teacher Miejue held high hopes for also failed to bond.
At this point, Teacher Miejue’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
If it weren’t for the comparison with Class 1, it might have been slightly better.
But unfortunately, Class 1 had performed well, and their class had already tested more than half of the students, with not a single successful bond…
With such lacklustre results, how could Teacher Miejue be happy?
At this moment, even Teacher Miejue didn’t dare to look in the direction of the school leaders.
…
In the live broadcast room, there was also a lot of malicious mockery.
“Woah! Did this class of students get cursed? More than thirty in a row, all failed to bond?”
“This is the normal operation! The success rate of bonding
was already very low, okay?”
“Wait a minute! Isn’t this school a prestigious high school? People who can enter this school should have at least one parent with hero talent, right? Didn’t the experts say that when parents have hero talents, the success rate of bonding increases for their children?”
“Probably these little guys are aiming too high, trying to challenge high-difficulty bonds with S-level heroes.”
“Look at that principal; his face has turned dark. Haha…”
“I guess if no one else succeeds in bonding, that class teacher is in for some bad luck.”
