This is beyond dispute.
According to traditional beliefs, students are expected to focus entirely on their studies, oblivious to events happening outside the window.
It’s seen as the ideal state of being for a student.
However, at Magic University, Zheng Qing finds it difficult to be a student who is fully engaged in studying.
Various factors vie for his attention, including a rich array of extracurricular activities, mounting personal worries as a young adult, or the frequent mishaps taking place at Magic University, each vying to distract him from his studies.
Especially now during the Moon Hunting period.
Although he has made extensive preparations for the arrival of the school’s hunting party, Zheng Qing realizes that he has underestimated the charm of this event, hailed as the national sport for wizards.
Starting from Monday, whether on the way to class, during breaks, or while having lunch in the cafeteria, he would constantly overhear conversations about the hunting party, the hunting teams, and the celebrity Hunters.
Even the usually solemn Monitor, Tang Dun, seriously conversed with Jiang Yu in the Astronomy class for half a day about how the Cot Team’s Martin being poached with a high salary by the S Bird Team would greatly impact the intercontinental rankings in the next World Cup.
In contrast, Zheng Qing, as the leader of the Absolution Knight Group and Hunting Team Leader, seems rather lacking.
He is unaware of the latest popular strategies in hunting, does not know the forty-one most common formations during a hunting team’s journey, and is also unclear about the supplies a hunting team needs to prepare during a hunt.
Luckily, the Absolution Knight Group has a competent primary hunter, Zhang Ji Xin, who enthusiastically prepares for all aspects of the hunt, such as tactical planning, logistical arrangents, and non-stop imparting knowledge about various common hunting concepts to the team mbers.
“…when the final battle cos…as auxiliary hunters, your only job is to ensure that the primary hunter can duel with the Demon King undisturbed!”
“This is a sacred and solemn duel!”
“You must do whatever it takes to prevent any other wild demon from approaching our battleground…
And you, the wandering hunter, you must always keep an eye on the other hunting teams…
Do not allow them the opportunity to take advantage of the situation!”
Before the start of the Magic Spells class, Zhang Ji Xin waved his thick arm, explaining his tactical arrangents enthusiastically to his companions.
Xiao Xiao held his notebook with a helpless expression, while Xin Fat Man seed to be daydreaming.
Only Zheng Qing listened with great interest.
However, he also spotted areas of concern in Zhang Ji Xin’s tactical arrangents and questioned so of his views.
“But, didn’t you say last night that in the Encirclent Hunting mode, judges pay most attention to team cooperation?” The young student looked puzzled at the main hunter, asking, “If they let you face the most dangerous Demon King alone, won’t our team be penalized by the judges?”
“Haven’t you noticed?
He just wants to have a good fight with a beast…
As for points and whatnot, they are not within his consideration.” Xiao Xiao humd in a low voice, sneering.
Perhaps this remark hit ho, as Zhang Ji Xin’s face beca a touch darker.
“Absolutely not!” He argued hotly, vehently denying this and then shifted the bla onto Zheng Qing who was listening at the side: “Our hunting team has not undergone any standardized training, so I’ve made the simplest tactical arrangents for everyone…
If only our leader could push that ‘Deng Zi’ tutor to help us train as soon as possible, I wouldn’t need to devise such crude tactics!”
Getting blad out of the blue, it took the young student a mont to react.
“It’s ‘Deng Zi’, the ‘Deng’ from ‘Dengtong’, not the ‘Deng’ from ‘bench’, and definitely not tables and chairs.” Zheng Qing first refuted Zhang Ji Xin’s misunderstanding of his words.
Then, he reached into his grey cloth bag, fumbled inside for a while, and pulled out a crisp piece of paper, which he waved in the air.
“Got it from a paper crane this morning during training.” The young scholarship student proudly announced, “Deng Zi has already discussed it with his hunting team…
barring any complications, our hunting team could start its first training session this afternoon…
every person, and I an, every person from our hunting team will have a dedicated coach!”
“Wow!” Zhang Ji Xin was stunned by the news and was at a loss for words.
Xiao Xiao was also interested.
He took the letter from Zheng Qing and started reading it attentively.
“Still no.” After reading the entire letter, Doctor Xiao adjusted his glasses and finally turned to the young scholarship student, “The Deng Zi you ntioned, which hunting team is he from?
I wanted to ask this question last night…”
“Yes, yes!” Having finally found a topic to save face, Zhang Ji Xin eagerly interjected: “Is it a newly established hunting team that’s too shy to reveal their na?
It’s okay, we’re beginners too.
They just need to teach us so basic skills.”
This question had Zheng Qing scratching his head.
“I’m not too sure.” The young scholarship student thought for a while before slowly answering, “When I chatted with Deng Zi, he ntioned their hunting team’s na.
It’s sothing like ‘Judgnt’…”
“Judgnt?!” Xin Fat Man, who had been daydreaming by the side, suddenly jolted back to reality and cried out.
His voice was so loud that people in half the classroom turned their heads and looked at their corner.
“Quieter.” Zheng Qing repeatedly apologized, signaling his apology to the other students in the classroom, while whispering to Xin Fat Man, “I know the na sounds…uh…quite silly…but you shouldn’t just blurt it out like that.”
“Quite silly?” Xiao Xiao snorted coldly, seemingly communicating through his nostrils.
“Judgnt Hunting Team?” Xin Fat Man finally lowered his voice, but remained anxious as he looked at Zheng Qing, “You an, the hunting team that will be training us tonight is the Judgnt Hunting Team?”
Next to him, Zhang Ji Xin also looked at the young scholarship student nervously.
“If there isn’t a second hunting team in the school with that na…
then it is the Judgnt Hunting Team.” Zheng Qing squinted, nodding uncertainly.
“Absolutely none!” Xin Fat Man pounded his palm excitedly, his voice trembling with excitent, “We’ve struck gold…we’ve struck gold…”
“Perhaps Brother Qing misheard…” Zhang Ji Xin seed to still have so doubts, speaking in a low voice.
“There are only a few hunting teams in the school, it’s definitely impossible to have two teams with the sa na.” Xiao Xiao flipped open his notebook again, smacking his lips, “So our leader does have his uses.”
“From what I hear, this Judgnt Hunting Team is quite famous?” Zheng Qing finally couldn’t refrain from asking.
