First Ever Global Tournament Of Rising Essence Commences!
4.1.-<<<Void Elementalist>>>
[ONLY]: Otherworldly Elementalist: Strength 3*, Movement Speed 7*, Physical 5*, Flexibility 9*, Magical Energy 10*, Nature Connection 9*, Tenacity 4*, Attack or Action Speed 9*, CC skillset 9*, Mind Power 6*. Like the Otherworldly Marksman, but in a much more significant degree; instead of shooting strange things and crafting strange other things, you make them and summon them to become your weapon.
5.-<<<Necromancer>>>
[ONLY]: Death Immortal Master: Strength 8*, Movement Speed 4*, Physical 8*, Flexibility 4*, Magical Energy 10*, Nature Connection 0*, Tenacity 8*, Attack or Action Speed 3*, CC skillset 7*, Mind Power 8*. Reviving our comrades, in a NPC-kind-of-way and then reviving them again sounds cruel, but its efficient when you don't have any revival skill nearby and also, your teammates won't lose Experience nor have their equipment too damaged. Oh right, forgot to mention, maybe you'll be able to infest at least 1/8 of a Sub-Divisional Main City with your plagues, curses and zombies as well as unspeakable monsters; maybe~.
6.-<<<Sacred Restorer>>>
[ONLY]: Dimensional Architect: Strength 4*, Movement Speed 8*, Physical 7*, Flexibility 8*, Magical Energy 9*, Nature Connection 7*, Tenacity 6*, Attack or Action Speed 7*, CC skillset 8*, Mind Power 3*. There can never be enough of the main healer of this game, at least in terms of non-Hidden Classes. Now you're able to ignore effects that impair one's healing skills and can even negate DoT damage when addressing wounds with concentration and slowly, but you at least can. At the peak, who knows how far one can go with this wonderful class~.
6.1.-<<<Half-Plated Mandate>>>
[ONLY]: Destroyer: Strength 10*, Movement Speed 9*, Physical 10*, Flexibility 10*, Magical Energy 8*, Nature Connection 8*, Tenacity 8*, Attack or Action Speed 10*, CC skillset 7*, Mind Power 10*. Okay, so read this carefully! Hehe! A Hidden Class, an actual Hidden Class! Yuppy~! But it's only available for the most talented; otherwise, the same class but with elevated stats. and even if successful, it isn't even the real deal though. Details ???, hehehe. But don't worry, it will be possible to change to another Cleric's branch classes.
7.-<<<Fallen Shaman>>>
[ONLY]: Grand Shaman: Strength 6*, Movement Speed 6*, Physical 8*, Flexibility 5*, Magical Energy 10*, Nature Connection 10*, Tenacity 9*, Attack or Action Speed 2*, CC skillset 7*, Mind Power 9*. A path of retribution and redemption from the previous 'lore' of the Fallen Shaman, now you can be all op all you want, stopping on the spot the countless enemies with just a raise of your arm and leading the unstoppable charge of hundreds of players on your own.
7.2.-<<<Soul Guider>>>
[ONLY]: Soul Bridge: Strength 0*, Movement Speed 8*, Physical 0*, Flexibility 9*, Magical Energy 9*, Nature Connection 10*, Tenacity 0*, Attack or Action Speed 3*, CC skillset 9*, Mind Power 10*. Like a Necromancer and similar to a Summoner, the Soul Bridge class allows one to call upon the strength of the souls they've helped find their path and not themselves as they are supposedly of good nature and nothing like a Necromancer.
8.-<<<Mystic Dancer>>>
8.1.-[FEMALE ONLY] Dancing Phoenix: Strength 4*, Movement Speed 10*, Physical 3*, Flexibility 7*, Magical Energy 5*, Nature Connection 10*, Tenacity 2*, Attack or Action Speed 10*, CC skillset 6*, Mind Power 5*.
8.2.-[MALE ONLY]: Entwining Dragon: Strength 6*, Movement Speed 10*, Physical 7*, Flexibility 3*, Magical Energy 5*, Nature Connection 10*, Tenacity 8*, Attack or Action Speed 10*, CC skillset 4*, Mind Power 5*.
Explanation: Well, the Mystic Dancer can now change in-between for MALE and FEMALE ONLY, and the reason for that is for the type of energy inside one's body. For girls, it will end up as phoenix for the graciousness and elegance of their moves and motions. While for the boys, the dragon would put forth the vitality and bulkiness as well as the always free state that a dragon could ever be in. Together, wooohohohohoh~, it might be quite shocking. As you can see, the two complement each other's low starred features while sharing a maximum 10* features in Movement Speed and Attack/Action Speed. Though its mostly action as these classes can be considered a pacifist.
9.-<<<Real Artist>>>
[ONLY]: Carrier of Truth: Strength 3*, Movement Speed 9*, Physical 4*, Flexibility 4*, Magical Energy 6*, Nature Connection 10*, Tenacity 8*, Attack or Action Speed 5*, CC skillset 10*, Mind Power 10*. As the main buffer class in Rising Essence, the Carrier of Truth can now actually help build... 'things', as for these things. Divinities like statues of oneself or a mystical beast, an incredible gate and so on; they would all be possible and even carry either temporal or permanent buffs depending on the mastering of this class. Also, imagine that you have a ton of Dancing Phoenixes and Entwining Dragons buffing everyone on a large-scale battlefield. Then, with a simple thought, the Carrier of Truth can boost these classes to upgrade their buffs and debuffs like it's nothing? Yeaah, crazy. But now, the Carrier of Truth can protect themselves with a brand new and furthermore exotic variety of a CC skillset that is just perfect for survival, it is still not speedy at all though.
<Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Wawawawah! Well that's it, this is the truth from how the basic classes should be mentioned and given a little hint, not like those amateurs who just love to pretend and apparent to be magnanimous, ruining the game that the Crestfallen Industry has worked so far and hard for, hm hm, hmph hmph!>

This was for sure something that would set all the players of Rising Essence to a greater understanding, unlike the previous 'normal' and ordinary set of 'good at this and not good at that'; just having a simple system of stars made it rather simple to understand it as long as one layed the game. It wasn't, for an example, impossible to see an archer or gunner using a big ol' sword or even a simple magic type of weapon. But only some took that path while others either did it for fun or simply failed like idiots on copying others brainlessly.
Then, for Yun Beishang, only the thought that all Second Class Advancement seemed to be the culmination of all branches for a reason, appeared in his mind. And well, not like it was only for him, as it was so for any intelligent being that hadn't even played the game, as long as they have that much enough of comprehension, they should perfectly become well-aware that this Second Class Advancements were the most solid of all previous branch classes; with some of them even reaching out to be a Hidden Class themselves!
The other post left to read was the one of 'The Order, stealing our fairies?! Giving out high-end items like it's candy, cheating or luck?!', with 3B upvotes and 39B comments which was posted about 3 weeks ago. It mentioned of how 'The Order' was becoming the house of many beauties and of many powerful ones at that, Zyv, Little Phoenix Maiden and even the goddess Fragile Broken Eyes whose popularity has never stopped increasing since that little tournament held some months ago.
It talked about the fact that this Association was made by him, Yun Beishang, and that it could only mean trouble! Basically, an envious, jealous and definitely obnoxious piece of shit making a hate-thread; there was nothing to see there, only pure hatred. While this OP took the chance to claim himself king of the hater club for Yun Beishang, that 'little club' did not even rose to 10k people, as most other fans from the goddesses' fan clubs struck against them to defend the vanity of their goddesses. Also, maybe... just maybe they have had been convinced that they wanted to be there? Hm, only one person could be capable of convincing BILLIONS of fans... Naty!
'Ugh, anyway. I'll have to thank my dear Naty later, sigh...' As Yun Beishang thought to himself, the cliff in which he has been sitting on this whole time reading the forums turned much more silent, as a little head came out from his left chest and after shaking her little head and glancing left and right and blinking cutely, she went fully out of Yun Beishang's body in that strange and completely marvelous way she does and proceeded to then sit on his lap. Dozing off after caressing her big brother's jaw with each of her fingertips and the rest of her fingers, Rosey then smiled the most radiantly cutesy before letting the lower side of her head fall on his left thigh and the rest in the air.
. . .
Sometime later, on the same cliff at the Azure Dragon Sub-Division, as Yun Beishang was calmly combing Rosey's hair that was roughly barely reaching atop her ear's helixes.
Her hair had the same color and glow as before when they first met, of a bright red color with a fiery glow on it. Though it was of long length back then, it had barely grown to atop her ears' helixes until now, and it barely grew another few millimeters after the past few months. With obvious common sense, Yun Beishang could deduce that Rosey's hair would grow much more and reach below her jaws once she evolved into a higher grade, which was apparently possible but... not convenient at the few moments from now on.
Tshin!!
Suddenly, Yun Beishang's eyes slowly opened to a full while Rosey, who was already more than awakened played dumb and remained asleep, she even made a bubble that went out from her mouth as she heaved in and out the air to her lungs. Right after, a circle with a light blue color was shown after a whitish glow spiraled crazily above and on top of him 3 meters away from his position; then, the circle was encompassed by a sun-like design on its perimeter.
Swish~~...~...~.
*PING*...contestant Tongqiu, the first ever Global Tournament of Rising Essence will take place in more than a minute from now, would you like to enter it?
Yun Beishang wordlessly nodded and kept combing through Rosey's small length hair with his fingers, keeping a bit of a hunched back and an extremely calm and well positioned Rosey at bay without making any sudden movements. While Rosey giggled tenderly and euphorically inside her body to his 'cluelessness', Yun Beishang was adoring the feeling of his fingers coming through her hair as well as that of her smooth and softest scalp. One took advantage of the other with Rosey not knowing Yun Beishang's knowings nor thoughts and Yun Beishang himself already knowing Rosey too well, didn't even need to ponder on whether or not this little brat was awake.
Like this, a minute went by, and as Rosey opened her eyes, stood up on Yun Beishang's thighs and delivered a kiss of her on his nose before hugging his neck, an ever so melted Yun Beishang grinned once Rosey went back to the White Space to watch the following show with her big sisters; ah. At that moment, the circle with whitish glowing sun-like design turned blindingly glowing, and right after, Yun Beishang's body was sucked by that circle into who-knows-where.
Tsssshiiinnn~~...SsssssWOOP!
***
At some unknown location, above the skies of Rising Essence's Main Kingdom.
"Ehh? Where am I?"
"Oh, look! There's people on the arenas already!"
"Woooaaah, eh?! Who touched my butt? The fuck! Only men can be abused like this, seriously... sniff..."
Instantly, billions of players from all over Main Kingdom were teleported, safely and without any harm to the injustice of Yun Beishang, to a type of structure that resembled a coliseum perfectly and whose length was of... endless?
"Holy shit... I can't see the end of it!"
"Indeed! I bet I can go and look around any arena if I activate the camera, woah~."
"Look! That one is the Divine Gates Hall True Dragon! Wo-hoa!"
What anyone could see looking to their either left, right, forward or backward; was purely a ton of similar other coliseums whose end was limitless and whose endless quantity of such coliseums adjacent to one another weren't simply foggy or blurry the farthest they were away. Instead, as if by magic, which wouldn't be strange at all, people of one coliseum could even see the people of another coliseum a thousand kilometers away perfectly. Sure, as tiny ants and that they needed to be at the top of their coliseum, but they could still see them perfectly!
Even those coliseums that were the farthest away and not visible for even their cameras were still 'visible', not drifting away as it would back on New Earth, which unlike this structure that everyone was in, was round. Because yes, the plethora of coliseums and endless amount of players were all situated in an unthinkable large platform above the skies of Main Kingdom!
On one of those coliseums, was a casually dressed young man with an eccentric wolf mask on his head that looked charming but fierce as well. One closer look at the mask might even scare the weakest of people in terms of mentality, but an even deeper look would make those who have a strong will become nonplussed... and possibly idiotic.
'Hmm, battle royale?' It seemed like so, though there were about billions of players participating in the first ever Global Tournament of Rising Essence, there were even more players in the side of the spectators seats, and while Yun Beishang didn't mind such an 'easy' thing; it also didn't seem like what the rules described. But soon enough, everyone on both the arena and spectators' side received a thunderous announcement from the ever so familiar system's voice.
*PING* Global Tournament Announcement: To all Journeyers participating and spectating the first ever held Global Tournament of Rising Essence. The start of the Global Tournament will start in 30 seconds after this announcement, please listen. All participants can choose to give up now or not, there will not be any reward for those outside of the 64th place for any of the 3 segments of the Global Tournament and your leave will make this Global Tournament progress quicker, which would be appreciated. First, the 1v1 segment will be held, followed by the Team vs Team segment and finally, the Association vs Association segment. All players that have enlisted to the 1v1 segment will now fight 100 flash battles, as soon as one loses 10 battles, they will be removed from the rest of the competition. Due to the current amount of available coliseums and arenas to fight on, it is possible for all 4.8 billion players participating in the 1v1 segment to finish this assessment in less than 3 days. Good luck to everyone and let the strongest advance to the next phase of this first ever held Global Tournament of Rising Essence!
"WOOOOOOOOOOH!"
"Hell yeah, it's beginning! Team Little Phoenix Maiden, motherfuckers!"
"Fuck you! Team Yunalesca, you piece of shit!"
"No w-w-wa-wa-fucking-ay! Team Baston!"
"...Gay~..."
"Sh-shut up, I've been his fan since... forever!"
"...I bet my wife on this, Team Hundred Flowers Hall!"
"...Poor husband."
"...What a soon-to-be-happier-wife..."
Yun Beishang blinked at the variety of endless cursing, cheering and... weird bets. Well, truth be told, if that wife has such a spinless husband, she would definitely be happier making him miserable, eh? Shaking his head, Yun Beishang simply looked at the timer up above his own arena, and after it reached 00:00:00, he looked down at perfect timing to see a sudden white glow mouth out a player.
A tall and slender violet-skinned elf appeared before him, with his ID nickname being that of 'That night before', he instantly took out a javelin and then stopped on the spot to look at Yun Beishang before looking at his surroundings.
As for Yun Beishang himself, he didn't turn his head to look around or at anyone else but at this one violet elf; with his awareness, he was able to easily figure out that everyone was teleported to a different arena of the coliseum, even him. And he could know that because he felt the very same white glow that the violet elf came from dissipate from his back.
Everyone was suddenly teleported away to a different arena and, each arena had a kind of setting that wouldn't allow the contestants to be distracted or aided from the spectators or other contestants fighting their own. But although contestants of other arenas could see those of even other arenas, the spectators could see it all.
"Bwahahaha! Look, that is the best player of the Tartamount Guild! He can easily kill players 20 levels below him with a simple basic attack and inflicting a crit! He can't do that now, because the tournament's rules suck, but he will be able to easily kill of this idiotic masked player in seconds! Haha!"
"Hmm. Who is that?"
When spectators were having a nice little convo over the battle where Yun Beishang was, the player before Yun Beishang had his head lowered villain-like and as a shadow formed with expertise at his eye sockets, he said. "Hey, who are you? Want me to be easy with you? Hah-"
But while 'That night before' was speaking, a punch came directly his way and it very well sent him flying!
POK!
-2,400.
Swish~~.
"!!!" Instantly after, the spectators that were merely casually looking all around became totally oblivious when seeing a sudden blurred something cross 250 meters from the 300 square meters big 1v1 arena in but a few seconds from close to the center before finally reaching the limits of the arena.
Thud...
"WOAA! What the hell?!"
"Ah, what the fuck?! My money!"
"W-wait a minute! How is that damage possible?! It is supposed to be 500 or 800 total damage for those who use any of the Physical or Magical Damage and even for those who are hybrids, what's going on?"
...
