Ti flew by, and September—the start of the academic year—had arrived.
Lu Jun and his sister had been quiet for a month and a half. Since breaking through to the interdiate level in the Curse System, he had been focused on mastering the star Patterns. With two experiences under his belt, he could now barely release spells, though his casting speed was still slow.
Currently, three of his systems had reached the interdiate level, leaving only the Psychic System. He initially thought that developing a signature move, Psychic Sword, and refining it day and night would help him advance to the interdiate level first. Unexpectedly, the Curse System took the lead.
The tal System was at the forefront, boasting Level 2 cultivation. The seven Black Gold Flying Swords, which had grown to a size of three ters each, swooped down like fighter jets, capable of taking down a few warrior-level creatures with ease.
Next was the Water System, which, after frequent use, showed signs of breaking through to Level 2.
But that was fine. For now, he planned to focus his efforts on the Psychic and Water Systems.
Surveying his four systems, Lu Jun felt a strong sense of accomplishnt. With so many systems to manage, he couldn't afford to favor one and neglect the others. For now, he decided to let the tal System rest a bit, as it was rarely needed in the university and would be too overwhelming for his peers.
"Sis, I'm heading to school," he said, stepping out and calling to Lu i, who was deep in cultivation, striving to break through the solid barrier to the advanced level and aiming for a perfect advancent.
Before long, Lu Jun arrived at pearl University. Familiar with the campus after a few prior visits, he walked in with ease.
The place was teeming with fresh-faced young n and won, each dressed stylishly and radiating youthful energy. A sense of excitent filled the air as everyone looked for their targets, eager to embark on sweet romances.
Senior students volunteering to maintain order were equally enthusiastic, their eyes shining as they scanned the crowd for potential "prey."
Lu Jun, however, felt no interest. Failing to spot familiar faces like Xu Zhaoting and Mo Fan—who were in the next cohort and wouldn't enroll until he was a sophomore—he sighed. By then, he might even be at the peak of the interdiate level, perhaps knocking on the door of the advanced level with the help of the Three Step Tower.
Among the sea of freshn, he stood out for not carrying any luggage, as he lived off-campus.
This unique trait caught the attention of several senior girls. His striking appearance and sharp aura piqued their interest, but they found no excuse to approach him.
As Lu Jun queued to enter the campus, soone suddenly shouted, "Holy crap, it's Lu 'Human Butcher'!"
"Huh? Where? Quick, let's go!"
The crowd imdiately broke into chaos. Students retreated layer by layer, leaving a large empty space as if they'd encountered so terrifying monster. Everyone scrambled to get away.
Only Lu Jun remained standing, utterly confused.
Once the freshn had scattered, they maintained a safe distance, observing curiously and taking out their phones to snap pictures.
One girl, her eyes sparkling, remarked, "He doesn't seem that scary. What a clean and handso young man! Those videos were definitely exaggerated."
Soone imdiately retorted, "You shallow woman, judging by appearances! Guys like him—handso on the outside but twisted inside—kill without hesitation."
"Shut up!" another person scolded. "That's called righteous action! I seriously doubt your intentions."
"Exactly! He brings a sense of security. Having a boyfriend who can slay demons and monsters? Unbeatable!"
Realizing sothing was off, Lu Jun noticed people taking pictures of him. Activating his Azure Cloud Boots, he swiftly vanished with a burst of green light, moving as fast as soone using Wind Track.
"Ah~ he's gone," sighed the freshn, none daring to chase after him, fearing the infamous "Backlash Blade."
A mont later, Lu Jun found a secluded spot. Reflecting on the exaggerated reactions of the students, he thought, Isn't it normal to have killed people?
Oh, right, magic school students probably haven't done that.
anwhile, under the shade of so trees, several groups of people stood watching the commotion at the gate from afar.
Among them were two brothers—one with thick eyebrows and a righteous deanor, the other an older, carefree youth. At first glance, they seed like heirs of a prominent family, exuding a playboy aura.
In truth, they were from the Eastern Clan. The younger one was Dongfang Ming, while the elder was Dongfang Lie.
Watching the scene unfold, the carefree Dongfang Lie laughed. "Ah Ming, what do you think of this Lu Jun?"
Dongfang Ming's expression turned uneasy. "I wouldn't dare ss with the Black Church, but with my innate talent, I won't lose to him in a magic duel."
Dongfang Lie shook his head with a smile. "I'm about to start my third year and plan to intern at the Judgnt Council. The more I learn about these things, the more I realize that Lu Jun isn't simple."
"Take my advice: avoid provoking him, especially with underhanded tactics. Compete fairly if you must—that's my warning."
Dongfang Ming turned his head away, but deep down, he felt apprehensive. He had seen the unedited version of that infamous video, without any censorship, and it was horrifying. For days after watching it, he couldn't sleep.
From then on, he understood just how strong Lu Jun's ntal fortitude was to carry on as if nothing had happened.
Nearby, a group of stunning girls stood out with their fiery and sexy auras—typical of fire elent female mages.
Among them was a gentle and elegant beauty with jet-black hair styled in a woven, net-like braid draped gracefully over her shoulders, exuding the charm of a noble Jiangnan lady.
Beside her, a short-haired tomboy, Huang Xingli, chuckled. "Ding Yumian, what do you think of this 'Human Butcher'?"
These girls had been together since their youth class days. They were part of a special admissions program, similar to Mu Ningxue's case. Though affiliated with pearl University, they were only officially enrolled this year.
Unlike Ding Yumian, who relied solely on her innate talent, the others had family connections or wealth to get in. Ding Yumian's fire spells covered a range double that of others, surpassing even the Raging Waves of the Water System.
Ding Yumian observed quietly and shook her head lightly. "He's confident, with an air of having everything under control."
The others didn't find this unusual, as they knew Ding Yumian had keen judgnt and often saw through the intentions of n trying to approach her, exposing them and driving them away.
Huang Xingli teased, "So, he's a control freak, huh? A domineering guy? Makes sense for soone who dared to fight the Black Church—such determination requires so level of obsession."
Ding Yumian remained silent, but she felt it wasn't about control—more like composure? She recalled Grandpa Xiao ntioning his na once and kept it in mind. Now that she had t him, she realized he was shrouded in mystery, like seeing flowers through a mist.
Usually, she only experienced this with Psychic mages.
Lost in thought, she didn't dwell on it.
anwhile, Lu Jun remained oblivious to being noticed by a few well-known characters from the original story and didn't realize they were in the sa cohort.
Annoyed by the attention, he quickly picked up his books from the new class and left. Fortunately, he didn't live on campus; otherwise, it would've been unbearable.
The next day was the freshman welcoming event, better known as the Summining Beast Battle Tournant. That was when the real action would begin.
