"Buzz..."
Huh?!
Everyone turned their gaze toward the wall.
They saw that the magic array inscribed on the wall began to radiate a faint glow, and the missing runes slowly extended, quickly completing the array.
It could actually be completed using only ntal strength?!
The students from the research society all looked at Adam with astonishnt, as if they had just seen a ghost.
Was this even possible?
Celia also looked slightly surprised.
She did not understand the magic array, but she could feel the looks others were giving Adam.
"Amazing!"
Excitent blossod in Maer's eyes as well, "Brother, are you interested in joining our research society? We don't have many restrictions; it's purely academic exchange, and there's even a monthly academy points stipend."
"My stay at the academy might not be very long..."
"No problem, co on, we don't care about that. Just register your na. Academic exchanges are easy to handle; just tell if there's anything you want."
Maer interrupted enthusiastically, patting Fang Heng on the shoulder. "You brought your student ID, right? I'll register it for you. From now on, all your academy expenses can go through the society—it's very convenient."
Adam had never experienced such enthusiastic attention, and his student ID was quickly taken by a nearby student.
"By the way, what were you going to say? What are you interested in again?"
"Soul warrior spirits."
"Ah! Alchemy puppets! You're interested in that too?" Maer's excitent grew. "Great! I've actually researched this area as well. I'm sure we'll have a lot in common. Co on, I'll show you my latest discovery..."
"Ahem."
Vice President Shen Qing cleared his throat again. "President, you forgot. You and Porter had agreed to a sparring match later."
Just then, the main doors of the hall were pushed open.
A group of more than ten students entered with forceful presence.
At the front was a handso young student. As soon as he entered, he noticed Celia standing nearby, frowned, then looked at Maer. "What? Calling for backup?"
"Nonsense! Do I need it?"
Maer's anger flared as he glared at the newcor. "We'll fight fair and square. Are you afraid of ? I just researched a new alchemy system. You'd better beg for rcy now!"
Adam glanced at Celia and asked, "Who is he?"
"He's Porter from the Elental Science Society. He's probably here for the sparring match," Celia said, shaking her head lightly. "The Elental Science people have always looked down on the Alchemy Society. They think we're just a bunch of rich bumpkins occupying the best areas of the academy and co here regularly to stir up trouble."
Adam glanced at Celia and asked, "Who is he?"
"He's Porter from the Elental Science Society. He's probably here for the sparring match," Celia said, shaking her head lightly. "The Elental Science people have always looked down on the Alchemy Society. They think we're just a bunch of rich bumpkins occupying the best areas of the academy and co here regularly to stir up trouble."
Fang Heng thought: trouble. He uttered directly into Adam's mind: "We have other matters. You go and finish this quickly."
"Yes."
Adam quietly agreed and approached Maer. "Maer, let handle this match."
Maer paused, looking at Adam. "You?"
"Is that alright?"
Maer was not worried about losing; if he went up, he would likely lose anyway. He whispered, "Brother, this kid majors in Elental Science. He's strong and not easy to deal with."
"No problem."
Adam stepped forward and looked at Porter. "I'll take this match. Let's start quickly."
Porter frowned. He did not recognize Adam. "Who are you? Are you from the Alchemy Society?"
"Adam, a new exchange student, just joined the Alchemy Society. Shall we begin?"
Porter's heart skipped a beat.
An exchange student?
Students admitted as exchange students generally had considerable strength.
Maer had just... suddenly figured out how to call for backup?
"Tch! I don't care who you are. Agreed—you'll only use alchemy, I'll only use elental. Let's spar."
"Alright, begin."
"Humph!"
Porter snorted heavily, flipping his wrist. Both hands quickly condensed an imprint in front of him.
Seven lightning orbs condensed before Porter.
Adam sensed the ntal strength contained within the lightning orbs. Before he could react, his right hand uncontrollably rose, and an alchemy magic array pattern suddenly appeared in his palm.
"Bang!"
The alchemy magic array flowed, and a highly concentrated air cannon shot forward at incredible speed!
"Boom!"
The lightning orbs, not yet fully ford in midair, were completely shattered by the air cannon. Porter, controlling the orbs, grunted as the cannon struck his right shoulder, sending him flying backward over two ters.
"Boom!!!"
Porter slamd heavily onto the ground, his mind blank for a mont.
What the hell?
Lost just like that?
With help from two companions, Porter stood up and looked at Adam with confusion in his eyes.
How did he lose?
The students from the Alchemy Society all stared wide-eyed at Adam.
What just happened?
It had to be related to the alchemy magic array he manifested.
But how did he do it?
Did alchemy have this kind of attack thod?
Unheard of!
Celia also stared at Adam, her eyes displaying surprise.
She could discern quite a bit from that move.
An attack thod with no attribute.
The attack ford extrely quickly, and its power was considerable—perfectly usable in real combat.
If she fought Adam unprepared, this move could easily turn the tide.
Adam looked at Porter calmly, "You lost."
"Tch, winning once isn't a big deal. Just wait, next ti I'll co back!"
Porter, blaming his lack of combat experience, resigned, pinched his nose, and left hastily with a group of students.
"Hahaha, Adam, did you invent that move? Incredible! Those elental kids always looked down on us. Finally, we got back at them and showed them our strength!"
Maer was in high spirits, laughing loudly as he ca up and clapped Adam on the shoulder, eyes shining with excitent. "By the way, that move fused spatial science with an alchemy magic array, right? Can you teach soti?"
"Of course."
"Excellent! Co on, brother, I'll take you to the alchemy rune room. I have sothing great to show you. You'll definitely be interested!"
"Alright."
Celia stood in the hall, watching the two walk off arm in arm, feeling speechless.
How did they suddenly beco so close?
She suddenly felt that Adam and Maer were probably similar types of people.
One was buried in the library, the other in the research room.
"Celia, do you want to go rest?" Shen Qingqing glanced at Celia, speaking from experience. "Once they start, they won't be out for several hours."
