The palm gently rubbed, and suddenly, several items resembling badges appeared in the broad palm.
With a slight flick of both hands, these badges floated lightly in front of everyone.
"These are your school emblems, and also your credentials to enter the Gray Magic Academy. It's best to bind them, preferably binding with your soul."
Zhuang Xu casually glanced at Li Qing and continued, "Um... just focus your attention on the emblem. As long as you can ditate a ray of light, it's fine. This is also your initial assessnt before enrollnt."
Seeing everyone extend their hands to take hold of the emblem, Li Qing finally reached out and held the emblem, carefully examining it.
Watching Li Qing being so cautious, Zhuang Xu chuckled quietly.
Seeing everyone activating and binding their emblems, revealing spiritual fluctuations varying in strength.
"Everyone, there's one more thing. Follow the guidance of your emblem and head to your respective safe rooms. Classes start at dawn tomorrow. Don't be late, or you'll have to bear the consequences."
Looking at the bronze-colored emblem in his hand, engraved with 'Gray Magic Academy Student ID' in magic script, Li Qing slightly moved his mind but dared not invoke too many rays in his mind.
Just now, Li Qing caught Zhuang Xu's words that binding the emblem didn't require much power.
Fixating his gaze on the emblem, he gently nudged a line in the light ball radiating a hazy glimr within his mind, then saw the magic runes hidden on the emblem surface quietly erge and, after slightly distorting a few bytes, the emblem vanished from his hand.
Replaced by a complex talisman appearing on his wrist, like a black tattoo, exuding an evil aura in Li Qing's eyes.
Simultaneously, so information appeared in his mind, the guidance function of the emblem.
Directly staring ahead felt like sothing was luring him, the force strong and slightly painful, always feeling sothing penetrating deeply.
Li Qing withdrew his gaze, lowered his hand.
When he looked up again, Zhuang Xu had already disappeared, seemingly his task was rely distributing the emblems to everyone and then considered complete.
"Safe room..."
The information implied by these three words was quite terrifying, aning aside from the safe rooms, other areas were rife with danger.
Watching the group of students disperse, guided by their emblems to the safe rooms, Li Qing was about to move when a soft female voice suddenly ca from beside him.
"Human, what's your na?"
Li Qing turned to look, it was Anna, seemingly a tentacled creature, hidden under a hood, her eyes like blood-red rubies staring directly at him.
Li Qing remained silent, or rather he had no wish to answer Anna's question. In this Magic Academy, the only thing he could do was stay silent, quietly observing until he understood thoroughly.
Only then would Li Qing have the right to do what he wished.
Seeing Li Qing's silence, Anna's gemstone-like blood-red eyes revealed a faint red light.
Countless whispering voices instantly flooded Li Qing's ears, as if countless evil ghosts were murmuring, tempting him to lose his mind, turning him into a living corpse.
The next mont, Li Qing noticed a few faint magic rune traces slightly appearing on his black robe uniform, then a slight black aura emanated from the robe, lingering around him.
He awoke instantly, as those devilish voices began to rapidly retreat until they vanished.
"Damn!!!"
Anna growled lowly, her voice deep and hoarse, like an evil ghost from the abyss, devoid of its previous soft sound.
Her voice was ferocious, her eyes bloodthirsty.
Li Qing subtly retreated half a step, tightly clenching his fists, and passed by Anna with a calm deanor as if nothing happened, following the emblem's guidance towards his safe room.
"There's one more thing..."
Zhuang Xu's eerie voice suddenly ca over, "Here, never reveal your true na, it could bring disaster upon you, or even the world behind you."
Li Qing was startled, a great horror spread in his chest, yet he maintained his composure and quickly departed.
Zhuang Xu had been aware of the situation here, delivering such belated reminders with clear intentions.
None of them are good people.
The other students had already hurried away, leaving Anna standing alone, her chest heaving as countless eyes beneath her hood stared intensely at Li Qing disappearing from her sight.
From the side, Jes had been observing with a hint of mockery in his tone, "Princess Anna, sotis humans aren't that easy to bully, little..."
"Shut up!!!"
A plethora of voices forming waves of Qi surged towards Jes.
Yet, these waves dissolved into nothingness within three feet of Jes, like a gentle breeze brushing past.
"Hmph!"
Jes snorted coldly, swiftly turning to leave, leaving only a voice behind.
"This is Gray, rule-breaking fellows. I reckon the academy's tutors are more than happy to see rule-breakers co forth."
Anna's body shook slightly, then lowered her head. When she lifted it again, the countless eyes had vanished, leaving only a pair of blood-red jewel-like eyes looking forward, slowly following the emblem's guidance towards her safe room.
...
...
Li Qing, after exiting the school gate, felt his heart continue to leap violently for a while before the lingering fear and unease dissipated.
If he had answered Anna's question like a fool monts ago, it could have indeed led to big trouble, as she seed capable of locating him through his true na.
Just like a demon, exposing one's true na ans a fate worse than death.
These creatures are too dangerous.
Once cald, Li Qing couldn't help but sigh, his gaze flashing a trace of chill, vowing to retaliate soday.
He's not one to just take bullying lying down.
So, did he unintentionally save the world?
He didn't know how long he walked, maybe an hour, maybe two, or perhaps just ten minutes.
Entering a realm of white mist, Li Qing found his concept of ti increasingly blurry. Eventually, he stopped in front of a small house enveloped in fog.
The emblem indicated this was his safe room.
This two-story cottage featured a structure primarily made of bricks and stones, with a chimney on its rooftop, tiles sloping downwards, and a path of warm pebbles extending to the fenced entrance. The small yard at the doorway was lush with grass, and a tree of unidentified species stood to the side, its branches laden with golden-yellow fruits.
Li Qing extended his hand, pressing it on the house number beside the fenced door. The light ball he conjured in his mind slightly flickered, and Li Qing felt this dormant house seemingly co to life, inducing a sense of blood connection.
His face was sowhat peculiar, akin to giving birth to a child.
