Chapter 16

"Uncle, will he be okay, running off into the mountains?" Mo Fan said.

"Who knows? There’s already a light-colored alert outside the city, warning citizens not to venture out into the deep mountains and forests. He insisted that a team of hunters had lost some supplies while tracking a one-eyed demon wolf, and he had to deliver them personally. He’s just a logistics person, yet he dared to take on such a dangerous job. And your father too, no matter how I tried to persuade him, he wouldn’t listen," Mo Qing said.

"My dad went too?" Mo Fan’s expression changed instantly.

"Yes, he said the other party offered a high price. These two people, even magic apprentices wouldn’t dare to take on such jobs, and they are just ordinary people... It would be fine if nothing happens, but if they really encounter something, what are we supposed to do?" Mo Qing said.

"Aunt, you don’t need to worry. They have already assessed the situation; it’s basically safe. They are just delivering supplies to a designated station, and the route from the city to the station is considered a safe area," Ye Xin Xia said from the side.

"Still, I wish they would just stay in the city and do some purchasing. I’m just not at ease when they go out of the city," Mo Qing muttered again.

After listening to Mo Qing’s complaints, Mo Fan still felt a bit uneasy.

For the past half year, his father, Mo Jiaxing, hadn’t visited him at school much. It turned out he had found another job, delivering supplies to the stations where the mages who patrol and hunt outside the city are stationed. This job was indeed more dangerous compared to his previous job of purchasing for the rich.

...

Mo Fan didn’t idle during the winter break. After staying at his aunt’s house for a few days, he returned to the Tianlan Magic High School library.

The library had a wealth of knowledge that he needed to supplement, such as the information about the Black Church.

After some research, Mo Fan finally understood what the Black Church was.

These people were a bit like terrorist organizations or major cults, often doing things that endanger the safety of the people. To achieve their goals, they would even use live humans as training tools. The country, of course, would not show any mercy to such heinous acts!

For the past month, Mo Fan had been deeply meditating.

After learning that the lightning star dust would become exhausted and dim after releasing just two lightning imprints, Mo Fan understood the importance of meditation even more.

So for the entire month, even though the temptation to use the fire-nourishing skill was great, Mo Fan did not easily interact with the fire star dust. He had to lay a solid foundation first.

When he focused entirely on meditation and made it a daily habit, time flew by quickly.

It was almost time for the new school term to start.

In the library, Mo Fan brushed off the spider webs from his body, preparing to welcome the new magic semester.

He walked into the classroom with high spirits and sat in his usual spot at the back row.

Hmm?

Something felt off today.

Mo Fan glanced at Zhang Xiaohou beside him and noticed that his expression was a bit strange.

Usually, this guy’s eyes were as lively as a curious little monkey, and he would always chatter non-stop about his recent experiences before class.

But today, his eyes were vacant, his mouth slightly open, and he looked completely entranced by something in front of him.

Looking around, Xu Qinglin and Lu Xiaobin, the two weak students, were also in the same state, as if they were... possessed!

Damn, it couldn’t be that the evil-eyed swamp demons that Aunt Mo Qing mentioned were really lurking in the city, and these guys had all fallen victim to them!

"Good morning, everyone. Your magic practice teacher, Mr. Lian, is sick and resting at home. From today onwards, I will be teaching you the magic practice class. My name is Tang Yue!" A mature yet bright voice echoed through the room.

Accustomed to Mr. Lian’s hoarse and slow voice, the sudden sound of a mature and seductive woman’s voice instantly woke up the still somewhat drowsy Mo Fan!

He looked up, and his eyes also became vacant, and his expression entranced!

Oh, what kind of evil-eyed swamp demon could bewitch the hearts of the young men in the class? Clearly, their souls had all been captured by this new beautiful and alluring teacher.

Teacher Tang Yue was dressed in a very proper black professional suit, with a black blazer and a white blouse underneath, forming a magnificent and beautiful peak that seemed about to burst out. Mo Fan couldn’t help but wonder if the small buttons on her chest could really hold back the surging waves. It felt like a doorman using his back to hold the door, but it was also trying to contain the overflowing spring scenery!

Oh no, this is really killing me.

In the early morning, it’s already the most aggressive time for young men. With such a stimulus, most of them would probably be in a very embarrassing state.

"Given that you have only awakened for half a year and none of you can cast magic yet, I hope you understand that mastering powerful strength does not mean you can use it well. If you don’t control your power properly, it could lead to disaster," Teacher Tang Yue quickly entered her teaching mode.

Her serious and solemn attitude brought many of the top students back to their senses, but when she turned to write some key points on the blackboard, the entire class was splattered with nosebleeds.

What a disaster! Mo Fan was sure that at this moment, every normal male student’s mind was filled with almost the same image.

Cough, cough!

How can one have such lewd thoughts in such a sacred place of learning? Anyway, Mo Fan was determined to focus on his studies and was absolutely different from these ordinary people whose minds were controlled by their lower halves. In short, next time he would definitely not wear such tight pants for the magic practice class; not all organisms can grow around obstacles like ivy.

The entire morning was dedicated to the magic practice class. After the theory, Tang Yue would take everyone to the playground to demonstrate the elements of magic release.

Mo Fan listened very attentively during this class. For example, when Teacher Tang Yue talked about the magic release process, Mo Fan felt a deep connection, but he couldn’t help but wonder how the buttons on her chest could withstand so much pressure without breaking?

The school playground was not for doing radio calisthenics.

The playground was actually a training ground, divided into several independent spaces by a magical barrier that Mo Fan didn’t understand. Any excess power would be absorbed by these invisible barriers to prevent accidental injuries to students who had no defensive capabilities.

"Watch carefully, today I will demonstrate the fire element beginner skill—Fire Nourish!" Tang Yue stood in the center of the class.

All the students formed a semicircle behind Teacher Tang Yue, but it was hard to say if they were all paying attention to her demonstration!

"Fire element, it’s a fire skill, Brother Mo Fan... wipe your drool, it’s your element skill! I didn’t expect the gentle and virtuous Teacher Tang Yue to be a fire mage!" Zhang Xiaohou nudged Mo Fan beside him.

"Oh, oh, I’m just about to learn it!" Mo Fan finally reacted.

(Today I searched for myself on Baidu Encyclopedia and saw a long string of comments, one of which described me as "the number one threat to readers in the web novel circle."

Seeing these words, I was stunned!

HAHAHAHA, Editor of the Encyclopedia, how much do you love us, I can feel the full resentment towards the ending of "Struggle" coming through the screen.

But the Editor of the Encyclopedia is right, I do often threaten you. If you don’t vote, I won’t update; if you don’t vote, I’ll update later; if you don’t vote, I won’t write the ending; and the most frequent one: voting is a matter of attitude, so if you don’t vote, I’ll beat you to death!
