Lu Jun returned to school, observing the vibrant and cheerful students around him. He felt a bit disoriented, struggling to adjust.
Just monts ago, he was enduring grueling training and engaging in brutal, blood-soaked battles with monsters. Now, he was back in the tranquil and joyful environnt of school life. The contrast was overwhelming—like stepping into another world.
As he heard his classmates discussing the "study god" Xu Zhaoting, Lu Jun couldn't help but shake his head with a sigh. Xu Zhaoting, who stood out during his magical awakening with his rare lightning elent, seed destined for greatness before the end of senior year.
However, things would take a tragic turn. When the Bo City disaster struck, Xu lost his entire family—his parents and grandmother. Later, when he finally settled in Shanghai and found soone he loved deeply, he ended up becoming entangled with sinister forces. Driven by vengeance, he pursued these enemies and t a horrifying fate.
Caught in a trap ant for Mo Fan, Xu Zhaoting was captured and turned into a Black Beast Demon, a cruel and inhumane experint. Controlled by those sa forces, he was forced to kill his own girlfriend.
Such examples were countless in this world.
Lu Jun sighed inwardly. He wasn't strong enough yet. But if he could grow stronger and had the chance in the future, he wouldn't hesitate to step in and change the fate of those like Xu Zhaoting.
As Lu Jun walked into the classroom, his clean and refined appearance attracted so attention. Several girls were about to greet him, but his sharp and imposing deanor made them hesitate.
There was an air about him—difficult to describe—that set him apart. It was as if he wasn't just another ordinary high schooler.
Lu Jun sat down in his seat. Unlike his peers, who were eager to show off their magical progress, he exuded an unapproachable aura. His classmates instinctively felt their minor achievents weren't worth ntioning in front of him.
Soon, Mo Fan arrived, looking spirited and smug. Spotting Lu Jun, his eyes lit up, and he unceremoniously plopped down beside him.
"Hey, Old Lu! How was your winter break?" Mo Fan asked with a grin.
Recognizing the look on Mo Fan's face, Lu Jun imdiately knew he was about to show off. Having figured out Mo Fan's dual-elent secret, the two had grown closer, their relationship built on a mix of mutual curiosity and camaraderie.
Half-jokingly, Mo Fan had started calling him "Old Lu."
As for why he avoided calling him "Lu Jun," Mo Fan once mockingly explained, "It sounds like sothing out of a cheesy drama, like a character from a love hotel scene."
Lu Jun didn't mind. Unfazed by Mo Fan's antics, he responded lightly, "Let guess—you finally mastered your Fire elent over the break? Or was it the Lightning elent?"
Mo Fan's grin froze as he stared at Lu Jun, feeling a pang of frustration. "How the hell do you always know? No fun at all!"
Seeing Mo Fan's reaction, Lu Jun chuckled inwardly. He already knew that over the winter break, Mo Fan not only mastered his Lightning elent but also spent a month in the library morizing every scrap of knowledge about the magical world.
Before Mo Fan could say more, Zhang Xiaohou arrived. With his usual goofy deanor, he greeted, "Hey, Brother Lu, Brother Fan! Good to see you both."
Before Lu Jun could reply, the previously noisy classroom suddenly fell silent.
Curious, Lu Jun looked around and saw the boys, including Mo Fan, Zhang Xiaohou, and Mu Bai, staring blankly at the podium.
"Good morning, everyone," ca a mature and slightly sweet voice from the front of the room. "Your magic practical instructor is currently on sick leave, so starting today, I will be your new practical teacher. My na is Tang Yue!"
Lu Jun imdiately understood. He glanced toward the podium, where a stunningly beautiful woman in a professional outfit stood.
Tang Yue wore a tailored black suit and skirt that accentuated her perfect figure. The white shirt underneath strained against her ample curves, making it seem as though the buttons might give way at any mont.
Her beauty was undeniable. With her mature charm and alluring fox-like eyes, she exuded a seductive aura.
Even Lu Jun was montarily taken aback. Tang Yue wasn't just beautiful—she was the epito of allure. Compared to his sister Lu i, who had a more composed and gentle deanor, Tang Yue radiated the confident sensuality of a woman in her pri.
She appeared to be in her mid-twenties.
Still, Lu Jun didn't dwell on her appearance. His knowledge of the original storyline reminded him that Tang Yue was no ordinary teacher. She was secretly a mber of the Enforcent Union, sent to Bo City to investigate unusual activity.
The Enforcent Union, a powerful faction directly under the Magic Association, dealt with threats to humanity, especially those posed by dark forces. Its mbers were elite mages, known for their strength and authority.
However, despite spending two years undercover in Bo City, Tang Yue failed to uncover anything significant and left just before the disaster struck.
The Enforcent Union, directly under the Magic Association, represented its authority and was known for being a powerful force. Its mbers were tasked with handling various complicated issues, especially those involving dark forces. They held supre judgnt and authority in such matters.
Every mber of the Enforcent Union was a standout in their respective interdiate or higher-level domains. The organization offered unparalleled resources, making it the dream destination for most diligent mages.
Lu Jun had considered anonymously reporting Mu He and his associates to the Enforcent Union. However, after recalling the internal situation of the Hangzhou Enforcent Union, he decided against it.
The Hangzhou branch was one of the largest in the nine provinces, responsible for cities like Bo City and those in the Fujian and Zhejiang regions.
The problem was that the Hangzhou branch had traitors in its ranks. Among the high-level mbers, two were well-known—a councilor's secretary and an enforcent officer from a second-tier city. Even at the lower levels, several hidden moles weren't exposed until much later.
Lu Jun racked his brain for every detail he could rember and realized the depth of the issue. He couldn't help but feel exasperated.
Bo City's problems couldn't be solved by a few interdiate or even advanced Enforcent Union mbers. Beyond the monsters, the mastermind behind Bo City's disaster was a force to be reckoned with. They were so well-inford that they even knew how many people the Enforcent Union mobilized. How could they be fought under such circumstances? Reporting anything would only alert the enemy.
"Tang Yue might be trustworthy to so extent, but involving the Enforcent Union is out of the question for now. I'll need to pick the right ti to approach her," Lu Jun thought to himself.
Looking at the stunningly beautiful teacher on the podium, Lu Jun let out a sigh. "The roots of corruption in the magical world run deep. No matter where you go, the sa problems exist. Whether it's Hangzhou or Shanghai, the issues are even more pronounced there."
Moreover, he was still in Bo City. His family wasn't influential enough to arrange a transfer to another city. If he wanted to attend a magic university, he had to finish high school here first.
"All right, everyone, let's head to the training field. I'll demonstrate a basic spell for you," Tang Yue said with a bright and approachable smile, leading the students to the practice grounds.
