More and more wizards joined the advancing ranks, laughing loudly and pointing at the floating corpses above. The two returned to the fortress, first sharing breakfast, then heading to the courtyard of the Ninth Squad.

The Sorting Ceremony was an important ritual, for during your years at the school, the academy became your home at Hogwarts.

“Yes, madam, at your command.” A middle-aged man, handsome and appearing just over fifty, emerged silently.

The two kunai thrown did not bear any Flying Thunder God markings, but Zes had attached two explosive tags to their hilts.

After Shen Qixia finished all the Qiongyao fruit, Zhang Ruyun finally told her about the time he saved Sanjiang, mentioning that the harm had come from Ruan Xiangzhu. As he spoke, his eyes flickered, carefully watching the lady’s expression for any sign of change.

When the merchant ship sailed into the night, the rice traders did not dock to rest, but pressed on with urgency, afraid to miss the chance for a huge profit they had worked so hard to secure over the past year. If a competitor got ahead and seized the opportunity, their year’s worth of effort would be wasted.

But when Teacher Rong saw the transfer student’s original school, she showed little reaction—it turned out to be a student from Zhenhai High. She glanced at the transcript; not particularly outstanding, but ranking steadily in the top twenty across all classes at Yin County High.

A bolt of lightning shot from Jiang Chang’an’s eyes. Xia Ji could not evade in time; the golden light sliced through his sleeve, and blood flowed uncontrollably from his arm.

Nalan had always known that Yulinglong harbored feelings for Ji Meina, which was why she considered Yulinglong a rival in love.

“I refuse as well!” Lin Chu glared resentfully at Zhang Wei, sharing an unspoken understanding with Tong Yao.

“Sent to the Cold Palace? How could she doubt my identity? Is she mad?” Princess Redshift was angry; how could someone’s identity be forged? It was absurd.

It was someone else’s family matter, and Brother Biao intended only to watch the spectacle, when suddenly a familiar name caught his ear.

A bit of dust clung to Lin Chu’s lips. She brushed it off and cleaned herself carefully, for despite the desk and chairs appearing clean, moving them stirred up plenty of dust. She had been thorough, yet still ended up covered in it.

Though the atmosphere between the two remained tense, it had eased considerably as the Taoist began to speak.

Before leaving, he repeatedly reminded me, “Don’t forget what you promised him while drinking!” Dou Peng, holding a spatula, turned solemnly from the kitchen.

“Boss Jiang said he would only provide the investment, and leave the entire filmmaking process to us.” Wuer Shan wiped the sweat from his brow, looking troubled.

Han Feng covered her face, staring blankly at Shu Wan’an. Shock, anger, grievance, and frustration surged in her dark eyes, then melted into tears that rolled down her cheeks like broken pearls.

Shu Jian watched helplessly as Shu Han ran downstairs, crying. Anxious and angry, he clenched his fists and struck Zheng Tian hard in the chest.

Although Lin Xi was not afraid of these sword energies, she was still somewhat surprised by their power, showing a hint of concern.

If it was truly because of her, why could she not recall even a single detail about Ye Minghan?

“Brother, you’re too careless! It’s obvious I’ve signed a contract with someone else!” Though she scolded him, Cui Bisi hugged Parker, rubbing her face against his.

“For example, if I remove your curse, you give me knowledge of the Holy Sword and amulets. How about it? In your current state, you can barely access your magic and are in constant pain. I can restore you to peak health,” Xu Wanjun offered in devilish terms.

Han Xiao exchanged a few words with him before heading to wash the rags. Ning Yimeng, unwilling to wait idly in the music room, glanced at the desks and chairs, set down her laptop, and went to help.

“I suddenly want to be an adventurer, to experience their life. Besides, I’ve heard high-level adventurers are in short supply now, so I’d like to contribute.” Xu Wanjun smiled, having overheard from their conversations that indeed, there was a gap between generations of adventurers.

“Yuanzi, what’s the name of our academy?” In desperation, Xu Wanjun turned to his wife for help.

“Find the Prefect, only he might have a solution now!” the captain said. Since the Prefect was officially appointed by the Ming court and possessed the right seals and tools to command the dragon veins and suppress evil, the safest place was the Prefect’s office.

Upon hearing this, Fang Li waved his hand, the multicolored light receded, but the colored pearl remained floating. The great bear transformed into a glowing shadow, flying back to Lan Die’s hand.

As the Ten Thousand Realms Disk was further completed, its efficiency in burning divine threads while crossing worlds increased from three thousand to five thousand times.

Zhao Sheng had always supported the use of new technology and innovation; the difference between humans and animals lies in the use of tools.

Take the situation at hand—if it were another doctor, they would be at a loss.

Such actions, if unwilling, are useless even if forced, for the skill required is so high.

In other words, the Ten Thousand Realms Disk likely wasn’t unimpressed by the soul power of those soul beasts, but simply wished to indulge, only to find its “mouth” locked shut.

Only in this way, when Zhang Daoxuan returned from the “Celestial Court” to earth, could their progress be synchronized.

In just a few sentences, the teacher explained the cause and effect clearly—her logic and expression were quite good.

No one could imagine that at the epicenter of the nuclear explosion on Radiation Island, there was a vivid golden image.

Later, Zhang Mei’s studio underwent Series A and B financing, and Haisheng Media continued to invest, making Haisheng Media the largest shareholder—not Zhang Mei herself.

Thinking of his aunt Consort Liu, who enjoyed the highest favor in the palace, and the eternally quiet Ronghua Palace, Liu Dongyan suddenly realized something.

“Your Majesty, what do you think we should call it?” Zhong Nan did not want to overstep and seize the right to name.

Noticing everyone’s unusual gaze, Chen Yang’s face showed a faint, harmless smile.

The atmosphere in the side room was oppressive; no one spoke to break the silence. Until the door opened again, and a figure in red entered, bringing the lingering chill of early spring into everyone’s view. In the next moment, a lazy, zither-like tune mixed with a light laughter drifted through the air.
