All his stats had gained a jump of 9 points , except strength which had increased a whopping 28 . As he had noticed that every stat point gave a larger increase in improvement compared to the one before , he knew he likely had doubled his actual physical power from the increase in strength .

He noticed that his class was added in a row , with F denoting the grade of the class . He was surprised to notice that his Race had also gotten graded , as it was blank before . He was excited at the prospect that he could actually evolve his race somehow .

Hopefully it meant that his power would rise , rather than growing a tail or a third eye though .

He had gained three new titles from getting a class as well . Zac focused on them to get a description

Full of Class : Reach level 25 and attain a Class . All stats +1]

Rarified Being : Attain a Class graded as Rare . All stats +1]

Trailblazer : First to gain a Class in world . All stats : +5]

That explained where the all-around improvements to his stats came from . The first two titles were things that anyone could attain . However the Trailblazer title was another title that only he would get on Earth .

Zac felt a comforting from what that title represented . He still managed to keep his lead , even over the - chosen - cultivators who got help in the beginner villages . Even if he was deemed trash by the System and left to rot to this island , he had defied fate so far and was still on top .

He had to admit that the feeling of power was somewhat addicting . Finding his family was still his priority , but he also craved the feeling of becoming stronger and stronger . He lived for the moment after every battle where he absorbed the cosmic energy , and having the pure unadulterated force of life course through his veins .

He had started to think more and more about where the limits of strength lay . By now he could punch a large rock and it would shatter , and only one month had passed . How powerful would he be in a year? A decade? Just thinking about it made him excited . Of course , he would never let himself forget that to get there in one piece he would have to walk through an ocean of blood .

He didn’t linger on the subject as he was anxious to look through his other changes . He thought - Class - and a new window appeared

Class : Hatchetman , Grade-F , Rare]

Strength +10 , +10% .

Level : +3 strength , +1 endurance , +1 free point per level .

Skills :

Axe Mastery (LOCKED)

Chop (LOCKED)

Forester’s Constitution (LOCKED)

Followed that were rows of blocked out information . At least that showed where the large strength boost came from . The +3 strength per level didn’t seem to be retroactive , otherwise he’d have almost twice the strength by now . But it showed that every level from now would give a much larger boost compared to before .

Zac was annoyed to see that he actually didn’t get any skills for free as he had hoped . There were 3 skills listed that seemed somewhat intuitive . Axe Mastery and Chop seemed offensive , and Forester’s Constitution was defensive . At least he hoped Chop was an offensive skill , and not a woodworking skill .

He didn’t quite understand how - Chop - would be better than what he had been doing before , but he guessed he would find out . It seemed that he couldn’t get any information about the skills until he unlocked them .

The next problem was how to unlock the skills . Soon he found the method in the quest tab . It showed a new category , which was class quests . Each skill needed a quest to be completed .

Axe Mastery (Class) : Mastery is born through battle . Fell 1000 enemies . (0/1000)

Chop (Class) : First chop Wood . Then their bodies . (0/10 000)

Forester's Constitution (Class) : Fight in the forests , be one with nature . (0/30)

None of the quests seemed very hard to accomplish . The Axe Mastery made no distinction of the strength of the enemies , and with his improved physique he could grind it out in a week or two if he just focused on slaying barghests .

The chop quest seemed to take time rather than being hard , but if he changed his daily work-out routine to chop wood it would be done sooner or later . Chopping wood was a great work-out anyways .

The last quest seemed either extremely easy or rather hard . Just 30 fights and it would be done . The whole island was a large forest so finishing it seemed to be the easiest of the three . It depended on what be one with nature meant . If it was just some random words , great .

If he actually had to somehow merge with nature , or become a tree-hugger it felt far more annoying .
