It's 10 o'clock on Tuesday morning.

There was silence in the classroom at 1001 on the east side of the Bishop's Building.

All the students sat quietly in their seats, carefully surveying the thin divination professor on the podium.

Although this is not the first time that students in the Astronomy 08-1 class have been deducted credits by their teachers in class.

But this is the first time that a public-funded student in the Astronomy 08-1 class has been deducted points by the professor in class.

Professor Yi's simple words broke a certain layer of mysterious aura that shrouded the public scholarship students.

This is a novelty for many.

You know, in Jiuyou College, which focuses on test scores, professors always give students with good grades preferential treatment in one way or another — everyone takes it for granted, and almost no one sees it as discrimination.

And now, the professor is using his power to make a powerful note on his authority in the classroom.

Zheng Qing buried his head in the textbook, trying to reduce his presence.

If it weren't for the fact that the students were forbidden to wear hoods in the classroom, he would have even wanted to cover his entire head.

He bet his ears were red and about to smoke.

Professor Yi seems to be very pleased with the degree to which he controls discipline in the classroom.

He cleared his throat, took a sip of tea, and gave a satisfied thumbs up to the elf school worker.

"Before you can continue to learn more about the divination system, you still have a little bit of preparation to do. ”

Professor Yi flipped through the lecture notes and snapped his fingers on the lectern to draw everyone's attention.

Zheng Qing lowered his head and did not look up.

He made up his mind that from now on, he would never speak again in Professor Yi Jiazi's class.

Do not answer questions.

No more doubts.

He gritted his pen viciously, gritted his teeth and took notes, every word under his hand was soaked with his anger, and the force of each stroke was able to poke seven or eight holes in the 'big horse monkey' on the podium.

"Before you try to use magic to grab information from others, you need to think about the backlash of the river of fate. After all, every wave in that river represents the most brilliant brilliance of a life. ”

"No one can casually desecrate this brilliance. ”

"If before the official establishment of First University, the disciplines accumulated by experience, such as potions, magic scripts, talismans, alchemy, etc., had developed to a certain extent, then the prophetic magic, in stark contrast, was still stuck in the era of desolation and chaos, and wizards could only rely on their talent and intuition to spy on the scales and claws of fate. ”

"The only obstacle to the development of this discipline is damnation. ”

“...... And I saw a great shaking of the earth. The sun turned black like wool, and the full moon red like blood. The stars of heaven fell to the earth like a fig tree shaken by a strong wind and its unripe fruit fell. And the heavens were moved as a scroll being rolled up. Mountains and islands have been moved away from their ......"

This horrific description made everyone restless, and although the power of divination was objective, there was no reason to anger the omnipresent Gaia for the sake of something that could not be seen or touched.

Professor Yi's tone became much lighter:

"Thankfully, you are living in the new century. ”

"After the establishment of the First University, countless great wizards put aside their previous suspicions, exchanged experiences with each other, and successfully obtained the 'David's Key', opened the shackles of fate stuck on the wizard's neck, and broke through the eternal fog. ”

"The holy, the truthful, with the key of David, is opened, and no one can shut it, and when it is closed, no one can open it. ”

In the last sentence, he said it so cheerfully that Zheng Qing couldn't help but raise his head and glance at this 'little old man'.

More people craned their necks, trying to see what the 'David's Key' was holding by Professor Yi was.

"That's the key. ”

Professor Yi raised his hand in the air, pinching a polished wooden bead between his fingers.

"This key is mine. ”

"Everyone should look for the key that really fits their heart...... Everyone is bound by the shackles of fate, and the chains around your neck are not something that can be opened with a single key. ”

"Some people may ask, how to use this key?"

Professor Yi's eyes widened, his inquiring gaze swept over everyone's faces, and finally nodded to Liu Feifei, who was sitting in the middle of the first row of the classroom.

"Medium, Professor. The chief student of the Nine Talents Academy explained softly: "When using magic to extract information from others, you need some medium of the diviner. For example, hair, clothing, and other items that contain the host's breath, and of course, the most common medium is blood. And these 'keys' are the tools used to carry the medium. ”

"It was perfect. The professor nodded with satisfaction, and waved the withered yellow bamboo whip in his hand vigorously, making the air whistling: "Liu Feifei adds one point...... You deserve it. ”

The female chief student sat down shyly.

Zheng Qing's mood became more and more depressed.

"As Liu Feifei just mentioned, only by finding your own 'key' can you avoid the curse and correctly depict the information contained in those mediums through magic. ”

"So, where is the key?"

"Keys are everywhere. ”

"The 'key' you use in divination can be anything in this world. ”

"Like a blackened bone, a dead leaf, a flower, even a piece of cotton thread, a piece of broken porcelain, anything. I remember a great soothsayer whose key was a ball of cow dung rolled out of a dung beetle. ”

A few chuckles rang out in the classroom, then quickly vanished under the professor's roving gaze.

Even the fat man Xin, who has always liked to complain, puffed out his mouth and looked at the professor seriously, without the urge to speak at all.

Professor Yi nodded with satisfaction.

"Find your key...... This is the first and most difficult step in getting involved in divination. ”

"Because the world is so vast, who can find the object that suits his heart from the vastness of everything? Some divination apprentices have never been able to find the key to their abilities throughout their lives. ”

Many people looked embarrassed.

For these college students living in ivory towers, it is as impossible to search for their keys in the world as it is to sift through a special grain of sand in the desert or extract a special drop of water from the sea.

Not only did not have the time, but also did not have the ability.

"But, that's also your advantage!" Professor Yi held his head high, his eyebrows raised, as if he wanted everyone to remember this moment.

"Where is this?"

"First University!"

"Who am I?"

"Your divination professor!"

He asked and answered himself, and the tail of the bamboo whip in his hand slammed the lectern, making a 'dong dong' sound, and the bamboo tips trembled and trembled, looking very excited:

"As your professor!"

"As your professor of divination!"

"Knowing your names and giving you three divination lessons, if it's not enough to tell you something, it's a shame for the First University!"

Speaking of this, he put down the bamboo whip in his hand, picked up the water cup, and poured a few big sips.

When the professor spoke again, he was less agitated and his tone was much calmer:

"Just like my former divination teacher, I always take a brief look at my students and do the math, not only to surprise you, but also to reassure us. ”

"Now...... Each of you takes turns on the podium, and I tell each of you what the 'key' is for you. ”

Liu Feifei's hand was raised high.

It almost poked Professor Yi in the face.

"Is there a problem?" the professor looked at her gently.

"I remember you said," the chief woman asked, standing up and nervous, "divination has backlash...... The textbook also writes that 'there are risks in unraveling, and divination needs to be cautious'...... You do divination for so many people, is it okay?"

The professor smiled movingly and blew his nose vigorously.

"Oh, like I mentioned before, you have to be careful when touching the thread of fate. He shook his thin fingers, his eyes shining, "But it also depends on the object." ”

"If you try to peek into the dim sigil of our great old headmaster hiding in the river of fate, you are likely to be killed by his unwitting backlash. ”

"But if I, as a professor, were to simply look at what bearings you'd use in the next class, and give you a little hint by the way, I'd have sneezed at best. ”

A few words of understatement made everyone look at the demanding professor in awe.

Even Zheng Qing is no exception.

In the sunlight, his short, thin figure seemed to be much taller all at once.
