At noon, the sun shines brightly on the Arctic wolf's mansion.

"Yes, yes, man, I haven't found a teammate to compete in the House Star Tournament right now."

The arctic wolf is talking on the phone with his brother Shiro in the living room.

He recently received a message from Russell, who said that he had found a fourth-year powerhouse who was willing to take him to the House Star Tournament, and that he didn't need to join the Arctic Wolves' team.

As a result, both of Arctic Wolves' third-year teammates have become undecided.

The Arctic Wolf knew very well that how could he, an ordinary person who was not even a first-year transcendent, compete with a fourth-year powerhouse.

He then planned not to participate in the tournament on the grounds that he "couldn't find a suitable teammate".

However, just now, Bai, who was promoted to the third year not long ago, called and said that he wanted to team up with his brother and participate in the House Star Tournament together.

"What? Want to team up with me? ”

The Arctic wolf's hand holding up the phone trembled, his face was purple and blue, and sweat was pouring down his face like a waterfall.

It's over, it's over, teaming up with your younger brother, isn't this all exposed?

"This old man, your idea is very good, but according to the rules, I still need a teammate to participate. Finding another trusted third-grader is also not an easy task......

"Wait, do you mean Silver Tiger, the cadre of our White Wolf Club? Oh yes, he was promoted to the Higher School last year! I don't really like his personality......

"Look, brother, since there are no suitable teammates, why don't we just ......"

Before the arctic wolf finished speaking, he was stunned.

On the seat opposite the coffee table, I don't know when there was a little boy with an army green schoolbag and a cute face.

"When did you come in?"

The Arctic Wolf was so shocked when he saw Duncan, who suddenly broke into his house and sat on the opposite side of the coffee table and leisurely drinking the black tea he had brewed, that he was almost about to shout for the thief.

When Duncan left the seal and walked out of the library last year, he didn't meet the Arctic wolf, and the arctic wolf didn't know what was going on in the cavern beneath the library.

Therefore, he was very unfamiliar with the appearance of this principal gentleman.

Fortunately, the silver badge on the boy's chest, which represented the identity of the third-year student of the Department of Astrology and Numerology, calmed down the Arctic Wolf a little.

This boy is one of the seven new students who will enter the Higher School this year? The Arctic wolf suddenly had a guess.

Last month, the Arctic Wolf heard the legend of this class of freshmen in the Academy.

In the past, only two or three students per year were able to progress to the third year and enter the higher education. In some years, it is common for none of the students to pass the actual entrance examination of the higher education institute, and all students cannot be promoted.

However, this year, seven new students entered the Higher Education College at once, almost setting a record in the history of the college.

The seven freshmen are Russell, Subway, Clara, Duncan, Violet, White, and Crescent.

Among them, the first 4 are even more terrifying, in the actual combat assessment, even as the prey of the reverse hunting of those strong people in the higher courts, and achieved fruitful results, such feats, directly stirred up a big wave in the higher courts, so that many students of the higher courts are competing to discuss.

"Duncan?"

The Arctic Wolf moved the phone a little farther away, looked at the silver badge on the boy's chest that represented the thread of fate and the web pattern, and tentatively asked the name he had heard.

"Brother, why didn't you speak all of a sudden? Did you encounter something? White bewildered voice came from the other end of the phone.

Duncan took another sip of Arctic Wolf's tea, put the teacup down, swaggered over to Arctic Wolf's telephone, pressed the speakerphone, and said to the other end of the phone:

"Hello, Bai from the Elemental and Energy Department. I'm another teammate of your brother Arctic Wolf, a third-year student in the Department of Astrology and Numerology, Duncan. ”

He used a firm statement that seemed to state objective facts beyond doubt.

Arctic Wolf quickly turned off the hands-free status, questioning:

"Wait a minute, we don't know each other yet. How can you be directly sure that I am willing to take you to the House Star Competition! ”

Who to find to be their teammates is entirely the right of the 4th graders!

Duncan smiled, put his hands behind his back, and said without panic:

"The boss of the White Wolf Club, the fourth year student of the academy, the Arctic Wolf, his real strength is in the middle of the second year, and he has reached his current position by relying on the thorn bird to assist in cheating.

"Actually, it's an ordinary person who doesn't have extraordinary talent, and he relies on the awakening potion provided by the Thorn Bird to awaken spiritually, because he hasn't taken medicine for a while, and now he is no different from ordinary people......"

"Stop! Say no more! The Arctic Wolf pressed the phone microphone that had not yet hung up, and quickly stopped Duncan's speech, "Who told you this?" ”

"It doesn't matter." Duncan shrugged his shoulders and sat down next to the Arctic wolf, and in the stunned and frightened gaze of the Arctic wolf, he clicked the phone speakerphone button again and made a gesture to the Arctic wolf.

A stunned voice came from the phone:

"Brother. Is the person on the other end of the phone really the other teammate you were looking for? Sounds like you're pretty young! ”

Duncan looked at the Arctic Wolf with a smile on his face, as if he had "You know what to say to your brother next".

The arctic wolf shuddered, showed an expression of lovelessness, closed his eyes, and said to his brother hesitantly:

"White, yes, that Duncan classmate just now is another of our teammates. In this way, the three-person team to participate in the House Star Tournament is assembled. Uh-uh, now that I'm on the speakerphone, do you have anything to say to Duncan? ”

On the other end of the phone, Bai's tone was stained with a little disdain:

"I said brother, I remember that this Duncan is a freshman who just joined the Academy, and he can find better and better teammates. Finding a freshman in the higher academy of astrology and numerology, won't it really be a hindrance? ”

In Bai's opinion, he was honored to team up with the Arctic wolf as a freshman because of the special brotherly relationship.

Normally, if a big guy like my brother who has been in the academy for many years wants to find teammates, he will definitely look for those super geniuses who have been promoted to the third grade for many years!

Before the Arctic wolf, whose face was embarrassed as if it was about to drip water, explained, he heard a cold snort from the other end of the phone:

"You're the Duncan? I warn you, don't hold your brother back when the time comes to the House Stars Tournament! Otherwise, I won't let you go easily! ”

Don't say it, don't say it, brother, please don't say it. The Arctic wolf almost fainted, constantly apologizing to Duncan with his eyes, expressions, and gestures.

Duncan, as the principal of the academy and one of the three most powerful great beings in the entire supernatural world, naturally would not deal with the Arctic Wolf, an ordinary person without extraordinary abilities, just responded with a smile and replied to Bai Dao:

"Got it, no problem. Don't look at the fact that I only joined the Higher Institute this year, in fact, I am very good. ”

Bai said a few more words with emotion and hung up the phone.

"Okay, Arctic Wolf, hurry up and report the team of the three of us to the official website." Duncan smiled and looked at the Arctic wolf who was about to cry.

……

The residence of the High School, the residence of Ares.

"That's it, with the help of a friend who is very good at divination and spell detection, I found this lost tablet of fate in a vacant villa, and I will now return it to you."

Russell returned the Tablet of Destiny to the five members of the Stars Spell Research Society.

Under the influence of the power of the slate, Clara has been transformed into a target for the power of faith, and even if the slate is returned later, it will not affect Clara to continue to draw the power of faith from the believers.

The five members of the Spell Research Society thanked each other one after another, took out all kinds of strange instruments, and checked the Destiny Stone Tablet for damage or other problems.

The more I checked, the more solemn the expressions of several members of the research club became.

"How is that possible? How can it be? ”

"The frequency of the detection spell feedback has changed!"

"There's a new name on the slate."

"The targeted test of the power of faith is also not as expected."

Seeing this, Russell asked suspiciously:

"What's going on? Is the slate you developed not working properly? ”

Heimdall pushed his glasses and looked up suddenly:

"Quite the opposite! This stone slab, which can gather the power of faith, has been completely upgraded during the time it was lost, and it is completely different from the previous test items that can only be regarded as toys, and has real practical value! ”

Cheers erupted among the 5 people.

It seems that the level of the old Order is not bad...... The corners of Russell's mouth twitched, and he suddenly felt a little funny.

Seeing Russell leave, Ares took out his mobile phone and looked at the other 4 members with a look of regret:

"It's a pity, just now, the academy's official website updated Mr. Arctic Wolf's team. Mr. Arctic Wolf really didn't team up with anyone from our research club, and it seems that our research club really missed the Academy Star Competition. ”

Did the Arctic Wolves find two teammates?

Russell, who had just left the villa, heard the discussion inside the door, and immediately had a guess, took out his mobile phone, and clicked on the official website of the college.

For the Academy Star Tournament, which is held every 10 years, the current official website of the college has spared no effort to carry out publicity, and even the headline of the official website is "House Star Tournament", and the college has even set up a special sub-forum section for discussing topics related to the competition.

Although the competition has not officially started yet, the brewing heat of the event is getting higher and higher.

It's completely unimaginable how hot the House Star Tournament will be when it actually starts.

It will inevitably get the attention of thousands of teachers and students in the school!

I saw that in the progress column of the event, there was an important news update.

Team 4: Arctic Wolves, White, Duncan

And before this news, there are two other teams that have already been confirmed.

First Team: Traveler, Black Rose, Thorn

Second Team: Radiance, Crescent, and Starfire

Third team: Joker, Greenbeard, Bluebeard.

Good fellow, Mr. Headmaster went to find the Arctic Wolf. Seeing that his conjecture had been verified, Russell chuckled inwardly.

Next, just wait for Clara to stabilize and skip to the fourth grade, and there will be a fifth team...... I also want to speed up the progress of spiritual practice and transcendental, and strive to reach the peak of the late third year before the competition starts in 3 months, and become the most outstanding group of third-year students in the college!

Russell set his goal and began to think about what method he should use to practice the ways of black witchcraft.

……

The Superior Residence Complex, Russell's Mansion.

Russell, sitting in an easy chair, brushed his mobile phone.

The phone, which contains part of his soul and subconscious, regularly records Russell's physical and mental state, including every spiritual ascension.

Russell is looking through his earlier message records to see what points and actions he has taken from the time he entered the rules and quirks and then in the M3 Institute, and has received extraordinary feedback on his practice.

Each student has a different way of getting feedback on their own transcendence, and they have to find their own path.

In addition to causing pain to monsters and the guardians of the corridor space, unearthing the darkness, and exposing the darkness, there is another factor that Russell did not notice before, and it seems that he has also received spiritual feedback.

When you ask the Demon King for help!

Sure enough, the body and the Demon King merge into one, calling on the Demon King's power to destroy, attack, and destroy when necessary, which does indeed look a lot like what a dark wizard should do! Russell suddenly felt that everything made sense.

"Mr. Demon King Xiaoming, I may need your help next!" Russell informed the demon in his heart of this information.

"Don't be so out-of-sight, boy. Anyway, we've fought side by side together! The demon in his heart stretched out a hand from Russell's left chest and patted Russell's shoulder with a very awkward movement.

"Okay, Mr. Wang Xiaoming, now please try to reveal some of your strength."

At Russell's request, the heart in his chest thumped twice.

A flame burst out from the ground in front of him, and the Demon King's sturdy figure stepped out of the flames.

The Demon King summoned his own projection clone!

Russell closed his eyes and looked inwardly at his spiritual state to see if there was spiritual feedback.

He did feel the spiritual feedback of practicing the transcendent, but it was so weak that it was negligible.

It seems that there is still a little bit of a difference...... Russell's fingers tapped lightly on the tabletop, and after thinking about it repeatedly, he finally figured it out—

He also has to drive the Demon King to attack and destroy in order to get complete feedback!

After Russell informed the Demon King of his conclusions, he also proposed a solution:

"We can hunt the extraordinary creatures of the jungle.

"For the sake of guarding against the Thorn Bird, it is not appropriate for me to leave the range of the Academy's enchantment shield. You may have to trouble Mr. Wang Xiaoming to send your projection clone to the dense forest, is that okay? ”

"What's this, I just need to move!" The demon in his heart patted his chest.

Over the next few weeks, a legend circulated in the academy.

At night, it seemed that a red meteor pierced the sky and fell into the dense forest, and a series of explosions could be heard in the distance.

From time to time, the night was dyed red by the red firelight, turning the night into a crimson dusk.

……

Russell practiced the way of black witchcraft with the help of the Demon King, and his spirituality grew rapidly, approaching the peak of the late third grade step by step, theoretically at this rate, as long as it took three or four months, Russell could reach the half-step fourth grade!

This former demon king has a very high personality, and the feedback of his extraordinary practice far exceeds that of the previous time when he drove the wind chimes to make ghost movies.

The materials obtained from the hunting of otherworldly beings were also handed over to Subway, a new transcendent craftsman, giving him the opportunity to practice his creation skills and practice the "science of strange things".

During this time, Russell himself was not idle, repeatedly practicing the dark magic from the scrolls of knowledge.

In the Corridor of Strange Rules and the M3 Institute, he was not skilled enough to control the dark arts, and he did not use the true power of these dark arts at all.

As the dark magic consumes the negative emotions in his heart, Russell becomes happier and more positive, and his heart is filled with infinite light.

By August, Russell was gradually encountering new problems.

One is that as the number of Demon Kings hunting increases, the efficiency of spiritual feedback declines rapidly.

Russell is no stranger to this change, and with the same monotonous way of practicing transcendence, the feedback will become less and less efficient, and he will need to find new methods.

Unfortunately, if it weren't for the compromise between the school and the Supreme Council, I would have directly disclosed everything I had seen and heard in the M3 Institute to the entire transcendent world, and the huge spiritual feedback would have been enough for me to enter the fourth year at once......

The second is that as he casts black magic more and more times, his psychological shadow area is getting less and less, and there are really not many negative emotions that can support him to continue practicing.

Russell, who was pacing in his villa, thought about it and had a new idea.

His black magic is special and will directly consume negative emotions.

Can you use other people's negative emotions to perform your own black magic?

Russell, who is a mutant, immediately began his research, and soon achieved results:

"Mr. Wang Xiaoming, I have found a place where a large amount of negative energy is gathered, and these negative energies can help me perform black magic."

"Where?" The demon in his heart asked.

"Internet!" Russell said, and the mobile phone connected to the college WiFi:

"Because of its special mechanism, the Internet inherently encourages the dissemination of controversial information, bringing together a great deal of antagonism, contention and abuse. As a dark wizard, it is necessary for me to use this negative energy to perform dark magic and purify the online environment! ”

……

Over the next two months, a hero shuttles through forums and group chats.

Whenever someone leads to war, fishing, or abuse, and whenever there is a group opposition attacking each other, he will always stand up and persuade each other with good words.

Miraculously, it seems that as long as they see the post of this unsung hero, the negative energy in people's hearts will be reduced a lot, and the anger that originally condensed the keyboard will dissipate.

"Why should I waste my time spraying people I don't know on the other side of my computer or phone screen? I can't convince the other party anyway. "Netizens who have calmed down feel that their psychological shadow area has been reduced a lot.

In this way, Russell shuttled through the Internet, purifying the environment of one community after another.

Another noon, feeling the negative energy gushing out of his phone, turning it into a death-causing ray into the sky, Russell's face was full of happy smiles.

That's what a dark wizard should do!

……

In September, the college ushered in the beginning of the school season, and many students who left the college during the holidays returned to the college.

Whether it is the reality of the two academies or the official website of the college, they are all lively.

A new class of freshmen is also coming. On the lakeside and in the grove of the Elementary School, in the teaching building and cafeteria, new students from different families, secret societies or ordinary families begin their magical campus life.

Clara, who had already determined that she was stable at the half-step fourth-grade level, published a mystical paper with the help of several members of the Old Order, passed the third-year exam, and began to go through the procedures of skipping a grade.

At the same time, Clara applied for a student loan in order to obtain the fourth-year knowledge scroll of the Department of Mind and Illusion, "Dream Building".

The maximum amount that a student can apply for at one time is 300 college coins.

The textbook fee for the fourth grade, which is the selling price of the knowledge scroll, is 500 house gold. Clara, on the other hand, had already exhausted all of her savings when she was promoted to the third grade.

A large group of members of the Old Order who had already lived in Clara's villa as their entourage helped to make up the remaining 200 academy gold coins.

Although the believers didn't seem to be expecting Miss Clara to pay back, Clara still said that she would definitely pay it back.

Eventually, the number of fourth-year students in the college reached five.

On the day of Clara's promotion, a new team was added to the tournament section of the academy's official website.

Team 5: Clara, Russell, Subway!

……

Time flies like an arrow, and the time flies to October.

The much-anticipated House Star Tournament has finally begun!
