Chapter 76: Two Practical Lessons
On the grassland, more than 50 people were nervous. Among them, most of the students came for compensation and rewards, and only a handful of students originally took practical skills.
I, who almost lost my life in the last practical skills class, has now become the subject of interviews, and the first question that almost everyone asks is: "You are not afraid of death, but you dare to come to class?"
"Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, you are biased towards the tigers in the mountains, and you are each other. β
"We can't help it," the crowd hung their heads, "and everyone didn't want to see the tigress, so they desperately wanted to earn enough credits for the practical skills." The third grade is different from the second grade, and the practical skills are all taught by the tigress, which is simply the end of the world. β
I almost laughed out loud with schadenfreude.
When the bell rang, JoAnn Williams was still nowhere to be seen. There was a lot of gossip and discussion in the surroundings, and some people even blatantly said the words "If the tigress does not appear, the world is peaceful", but it attracted everyone's approval.
"Yi Jiahe, do you think Ms. Williams will come?"
I replied to Xiao Hui: "Who knows." Eighty percent of the blind date failed, hiding in the toilet and crying secretly, forgetting to get down to business. β
No one wants to skip class.
"It's not a matter of the teachers being there. Since you are in class, you can't skip class without accident if you don't have an accident...... Why? Because, of course, we're students at the Rhett Academy of Elemental Magic. From the answers of the boys in the class, I could see that everyone had a common sense of pride. I don't have a problem with such classmates, after all, I am a person who does not have much collective consciousness.
Collectivity brings benefits to individuals, while collective consciousness brings a sense of spiritual belonging to individuals. As a loner, I longed for a group to accept me, but after several searches, I couldn't escape the fate of loneliness. I am very pleased to find such a group of students here so determined to defend the collective honor. At the very least, it makes me believe that there are still people in the world who are genuinely considerate of others.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. Joan, dressed in the same way as last time, walked towards us.
The students who sat down immediately got up, and the students who stood either held their heads high or moved behind their classmates, intending to reduce the chance that Joan would be looking directly at him.
When JoAnn got ahead of us, she rightfully turned her gaze to her victim.
"Yi Jiahe. "The tigress's call was unanswerable, so I pretended not to hear.
Joan approached, and I didn't move to see what happened. Suddenly, Joan in front of me grabbed the corner of my clothes and brushed them up. I hesitated for a few seconds until Joan's hand met my skin, and I came back to my senses and fell to the ground like an electric shock.
"What are you doing?"
Joan's face did not change and her face did not blush, and said, "Confirm your injuries." β
"No, you clearly eat my tofu. β
Qiao An was silent, and laughed heartily in a few seconds, startling the students in the practical skills class to take a step back away from our row.
"Is this the tigress?" until someone whispered behind me that I realized that three out of ten had been quarantined.
"It's unbelievable that a tigress who can only sneer and smile without smiling is so bold. β
Joan looked us squarely, and the whispers in the rear stopped abruptly.
"Milky little hairy boy, I'm going to take a fancy to you?" Joan took a step towards me.
I subconsciously looked around, except for me, three out of ten were behind, and the students behind them had reached the point where they could play "one, two, three wooden people" with me.
"Traitor ......" whispers without resentment.
The seven smiled wryly - I seemed to read Josh's lips: "I'm sorry, Yi Jiahe, we will still be good friends in the next life." β
"Hehe, if you don't come to life, you can be friends in life and death in this life. β
"And me?"
"Huh?" Turning around, Joan, nicknamed the tigress, was close at hand.
"No, I told my classmates. β
My blue eyes faintly reflected my appearance. Heaven seemed to be telling me that if I saw myself clearly, I would die on the spot. Following my instincts, I took a step back.
As soon as my left foot didn't move and my right foot moved, Joan grabbed my shoulder.
"I'd rather be broken than broken, fight!"
Determined to die, I pushed Joan away and prepared to flee the scene. Intentionally or unintentionally, I have touched the tiger's parenting artifact. I don't worry about my bones, I just want my companion to escape from the tiger's mouth. Then, one day, one of them will avenge me and defeat the tigress.
"Huh?" accidentally fell to the ground.
As I got up, I saw Joan kneeling beside me. With a scream, I turned and fled, but she grabbed me by my clothes. In order not to tear my clothes, I had to succumb to the oppression of the tigress.
"Alive, boy, I'm recovering well. β
"Thank you, Lord Joan, for the emergency surgery, if you hadn't beaten me half to death, I wouldn't have suffered this crime. β
Jo Ann sneered and dragged me into the group of students. Everyone wanted to retreat, and under Joan's order of "not allowed to move", they became wooden people.
"I won't talk about the preface to the change of class. The main content of this class is ......"
Joan deliberately dragged it out, presumably enjoying the miserable appearance of the student trembling with fear.
"Self-study. β
I seemed to hear the sound of cracking woodβI had seen monkeys popping out of the rocks, and it turned out that there were people who had been made of wood.
"Mother...... Teacher, Teacher Qiao An, this practical skills class is self-study?" Josh asked.
"Didn't I make it clear?"
"Yes, self-study. β
Joy flooded Josh's face, on the faces of every student in the hands-on class. There are people who are skeptical, but many more are chasing and fighting frantically.
"Everyone," Joan said, and everyone stopped moving and stared sadly, "I'm about to advance to the examβthe vast majority of people will choose to go to the next levelβand I'm trying to say that if you have any questions, you can ask them, and I'll be happy to answer them for you." β
After saying that, Joan smiled. I felt a wolf venom flower bloom in front of me. Looking at the looks of my classmates, I guess they think the same way as I do.
"Yi Jiahe, come here, I have something to talk to you about alone. β
"It's the investigation into the attack. Later, I called Xiao Hui to ......, "In order not to fall into a lonely battle, I am anxious to find Xiao Hui."
"No, I'm looking for you only. β
Looking at the thirteen out of ten students, everyone has run away, and I am alone.
"There's no one left, you say. Let me state first, don't say that you want to ...... with me."
Joan pressed her index finger against my forehead and pushed hard, saying, "Little brat, I've been ...... for a long time I ask you, how did you attack me last time?"
"My fire magic, of course. "I was pushed by Joan with his finger again as he pretended to be able to perform fire magic.
"You think I'm a three-year-old? I checked you with light magic while you were unconscious, and there was nothing abnormal about your body except for my wounds. β
"Really?"
Joan crossed her hands and said, "Unlike other elemental magic, light and dark magic are very versatile. Since I'm already a light mage, I have a more precise control over the magic of the Holy Light. Upon my examination, Jesse and I both came to the same conclusion, which is that you have no amnesia at all. β
"How could it be ......"
"We didn't find any damage to your brain. Not only that, but your physical condition should be no different from that of an ordinary second-fire mage. You say that you have memory loss and can't use magic tools, and according to the reasonable explanation from our examination results, either you don't want to use it, or you have a reason why you can't use it. β
"That's right. β
Joan reached out and grabbed me by the shoulders and pulled me closer to me, so I could see myself in Joan's eyes.
"Whether you want to use it or not depends on your mood, and there is a reason why you can use it. For example......" Joan paused deliberately, presumably waiting for my expression to change, "For example, you made a soul pact with a demon, and once you cast your magic, it will reveal your identity as a dark mage......"
"I'm sorry," I said, taking a step back from Joan's hand, "memory loss, in some ways it's true. I don't know what a demon is. Lucifer, Satan, God knows what the demons of your wizarding world are. β
"You?" said Joan, aiming at me with a piercing gaze like a vulture that has spotted its prey, "as if you were not born into this world. β
Cold sweat was about to break out, but I still had to pretend to be calm and talk: "I don't belong to the wizarding world, where do I belong? Heaven and hell? There is no place for me in either place." β
Joan was silent until Xiao Hui cautiously came to us, and she didn't move. The tigress was deep in thought, this was the best time for me to escape from her.
"Wait a minute," I just waved my hand to signal Xiao Hui to clear the way, and the battle maniac stopped me, "Yi Jiahe, you haven't answered my question yet." β
The stalemate with the light magician of the eighth rank is not a joke, and if you are not careful, you will be pulled by her hook and cannot get rid of it. How to deal with it, or not ignore it - nine times out of ten you will die in Huangquan, or tell the truth.
"For the sake of you saving me, I'll tell you. I said to Joan mysteriously, "Listen, that's all the same. β
"What's that?"
"Having said that, you don't pester me. β
Pulling Xiao Hui up and running a few steps, I remembered that Qiao An saved me because she was the one who seriously injured me. Unbalanced, I turned to the light magician who was thinking, and shouted, "JoAnn Williams, you owe me a favor. "It doesn't matter if she hears it or not, the tigress just has to pay me back anyway.
Far away from Joan, the eight of us lay side by side on the grass. I heard the laughter of my classmates, and I don't know how long it had been since I had studied on my own in a practical class.
"Ah, can you sleep so leisurely in self-study class?"
Xiao Hui shook his head and said, "The only time I can rest in Ms. Williams' class is when I am defeated by her and lying on the ground." β
"All the time?"
Park Ji-woo said: "As long as it is a practical skill class for tigress, it has always been like this." β
"So, it's an unprecedented miracle that she will let us study on our own in today's class where students can get double credit records. β
"That's an exaggeration. β
Kojiro said, "Alex is exaggerating, but it's roughly true. Every time we take a tigress class, in addition to being beaten, we are watching people get beaten. She has healing light magic that allows the injured to heal quickly. It's okay to hurt again, it's good to hurt again, it's not an exaggeration to say that it's hell reincarnation. β
"I can tolerate being able to get stronger. β
Josh lay on his side and said to Charlie on the side: "How many times have you challenged, and how many times have you been defeated, haven't you neither become stronger nor promoted?" β
Charlie turned his back to Josh and came to my side. His expression told me that he was thinking about life.
I have the impression that the sky in the real world is not so blue. Gray smoke, exhaust fumes, and smog obscure the sky, and the era of science and technology changing the environment after economic development is often said to be still coming at the speed of a tortoise, but everyone knows that the rabbit called environmental pollution is running at full speed. Is this the reality that the tortoise and hare race ends with the tortoise winning? What one person can do is pay attention to his environment, but as soon as the other person lets his guard down, the trend accelerates. People often say that it will be too long before the earth will be overloaded, but they don't know that if we start improving it from now on, we can at least extend the blessings to the next generation.
Close your eyes, listen to the life force of the students, and feel the gift of nature: "The elements of nature are integrated. β
For a moment, I felt as if I was in the sky, flying in the breeze. This is the freedom I yearn for, like a dandelion with independent consciousness, swinging with the wind. Maybe one day I'll settle down on a piece of land and take root. Life continues until heaven and earth return to nothingness.
"Yi Jiahe!" Xiao Hui was calling me.
Open your eyes β why am I in mid-air. Panic, fear, a blank brain. And with that, the whereabouts.
"Wow......"
I didn't dare to open my eyes when I held my face, and it was only after I regained consciousness that I realized that I had been caught.
"What are you doing?"
"Ah, thank you. β
Jumping out of Joan's arms, my heart beating so hard that I couldn't tell if I was scared or shy. I think it's the former - I, who likes tigress, has a short circuit in my brain.
"What just happened?" Seeing that I didn't make a sound, Jo Ann asked the three out of ten boys.
Everyone was silent, bowing their heads as if they were shielding me who had made a mistake.
"Josh Walker, you say!" commanding the tone, how dare Josh disobey.
"I saw it, easy ...... Jiahe floated up from the ground...... Fly, fly to the sky......"
Joan said "um", and Josh thought she was doubting her statement and hid behind Charlie in fright.
Josh is right. "The whole process is slow, and it is difficult to feel the signs of the use of wind magicβit should be magic and not the effects of magic tools. If it wasn't Yi Jia and Ben who would use wind magic, it would be someone else who used wind magic on him. β
Qiao An glanced around and asked the lively students, "Who is using wind magic on Yi Jiahe?"
Everyone was shocked and shook their heads again and again.
"Mother...... Well, Ms. Williams, not to mention that very few people in our class know wind magic, and even if we do, those who can't easily be noticed and cast wind magic, let alone rank four and above. β
"Yes. Kojiro held Park Ji-woo's baton, "However, although the wind is light, everyone is aware of it." The other party may be deliberate, or maybe the class is not too high. β
"What is the purpose of bringing Yi Jiahe into the air?" Alex asked.
"Murder? impossible. It's boring to show off your strengths. You can't just do magic for fun, do you?" Park Ji-woo thought.
I'm glad to see that everyone has gone to great lengths to discuss for me. It's just, why don't you come and ask me how I feel?
"Yi Jiahe, do you have eyebrows?" asked Joan.
"Hey, let me ask, do you think that in a situation like the one just now, the other party may be a magician of what rank?"
Joan pondered and said, "The lower the rank of the magician, the more difficult it is to manipulate the natural elements, so ...... Being able to slowly carry you into the air without you noticing, and being able to control the wind without harming the people around you, the strength of Level 5 is there. β
"Level five, isn't it Yu Jingjing?"
"How could Yu Jingjing do such a thing!" Xiao Hui shouted, and everyone looked at him.
My old classmate lowered his head and blushed and said, "What do I mean...... Student representatives are not arrogant people and will not deliberately show their strength......"
"I just met Yu Jingjing before class, she accompanied Ms. Jin Wenji to Baicao Garden, it won't be her. Qiao An's words made Xiao Hui breathe a sigh of relief, "There are a few wind mages in our academy who are level five, and I don't think they will come to the practical skills class. "Tigress, did you eat them?
"What do you mean by those eyes?" said Joan as if reading through my thoughts, "The fifth-level magicians are busy with the promotion exams, and every second counts. β
This is also true, after all, the only way to take a practical class is to be beaten - the higher the status, the less you want to make a fool of yourself.
"Ms. Williams, as a Tier 8 Light Mage, you should have the ability to detect mana, right?"
Joan replied to Park Ji-woo: "I did it when I caught Yi Jiahe, it's wind magic." There is no sign of the surrounding area, it should be from the center. β
Seeing that everyone was dumbfounded, Qiao An pointed to me and told me the result: "To sum up, one possibility is that a powerful magician eliminated the traces of magic after casting magic, and the other possibility is that Yi Jia and himself used wind magic to carry themselves into the air. I'm leaning towards the latter possibility. β
"However, if it is Yi Jiahe's ......"
Qiao An nodded and replied to Xiao Hui: "If this matter is done by Yi Jiahe, then his strength is above the fourth level." As a fire elemental mage, he can use wind magic accurately, and it is preliminarily determined that he is a fire mage of rank 5. β
Three out of ten boys were amazed, and the onlookers exchanged heads. Although I was a little confused, Jo Ann meant that I was actually very good.
"Ah, I'm so sorry, I turned out to be a fire mage of rank five. Haha......"
"Yi Jiahe," Joan turned, "you cast the wind magic again." β
I straightened my back and waited. After a minute, I couldn't find any feeling.
"This ...... It's harder to cast a spell than to wait for it......"
The bystanders began to whisper again. I heard people say, "He's not a fifth-class magician," and I heard people retort, "But what the tigress says can't be false."
The buzz annoyed me, and I gave up looking for a feeling and said bluntly, "Teacher Joan, I can't do wind magic. β
"Yes. The secretary pushed her glasses and said, "Forget it, I'm wrong." β
After saying that, Joan left us regardless of the comments of the people around her.
"That's right," Qiao An, who was more than ten meters away from us, suddenly turned his head and said, regardless of whether we could hear it or not, "Yi Jiahe, and Xiao Hui, come with me to the dean's office after class." β
Xiao Hui leaned over and said to me, "Yi Jiahe, I always have a bad premonition. β
"The boat is naturally straight to the bridge. I patted Xiao Hui on the shoulder and replied. Take a hundred plating and read the latest chapter of "Don't Forget the Blessing and Misfortune of the Past Book House" for free for the first time.
