Versatile Mage: Lord of Space

Chapter 3 Opening Ceremony

Time always passes by unknowingly, and two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past two months, Lin Lan has been studying magic theory every day. This life seems to be just like in his previous life, when everyone was studying desperately one month before the college entrance examination, not wanting to miss any opportunity. Studying late into the night has become the norm. Unfortunately, now that Lin Lan is alone, he no longer has that tense yet enjoyable atmosphere.

Studying and training day after day, life is boring but fulfilling.

Lin Lan didn't know how far he could go in the field of magic, but he tried his best to learn as much as possible.

……

Today is the first day of school at Tianlan Magic High School. All the freshmen gathered in the playground, filled with laughter.

"Brother Fan, Brother Lan, after the opening ceremony, the school will hold awakening tests for each class. What department do you want to awaken?" Zhang Xiaohou also asked happily. The three of them were assigned to the same class and the same dormitory, so it was fate that made sense~
“As for me, anything is fine… I’ll just go with the flow.” Mo Fan’s tone was a little low. He actually hoped that he could awaken a fire element, but it was hard to say since he had traveled through time. Besides, his father sold the old house for him…

"I think fire and lightning mages will be enough." Lin Lan is more optimistic. He doesn't care about awakening. Even if it is light or water, the light mages have the Demon Sword and water mages are popular in the later stages. Having resources for development is the kingly way.

"Yo yo yo~"

“Isn’t this my big brother Mo Fan? We sold our house so that you can go to school. If you can awaken successfully, it would be a blessing from God. You even want to awaken the fire element? It’s wishful thinking!” A fat boy with a puffy hairdo, a face like a bun and a short body said with disdain, mocking Mo Fan with a tone that was six parts arrogance and four parts disdain.

“Sorry, I can’t understand animal language. Just now, it seemed like a terrestrial rat ran in front of me and chirped. I don’t know which zoo it ran out of.” Mo Fan replied helplessly.

"Hahahaha~ Brother Fan is right. Zhao Kunsan, you should take care of yourself." Zhang Xiaohou echoed.

"You~you guys...just wait for you to be humiliated when you awaken!" Zhao Kunsan was speechless and ran away in shame.

Lin Lan was impressed by Mo Fan's ability to fight back. She was afraid that even ten Zhao Kunsans would not be able to fight back against Mo Fan.
……

Opening Ceremony.

"Principal Zhu, please come to the stage and speak!"

"Clap clap~"

Principal Zhu slowly walked onto the stage amid applause.

"classmates!"

"Do you know what it takes to be a good magician?"

Principal Zhu asked the audience.

"Good magic department!"

"It requires great strength!"

"Excellent cultivation!" Principal Zhu shook his head. The students were also confused. The nine years of compulsory magic education taught them that only with strength can they achieve success and realize themselves.

“These are important, but they are not everything.”

"An excellent magician must be aware of his duty and follow his heart! A magician's duty is to fight bravely when demons trample on people and cities! A magician's heart is to never forget to pursue the highest meaning of magic no matter what stage he is in!"

"Pah pah pah pah~"

Instantly, thunderous applause broke out. Now the sun was shining brightly, and the students' hearts were ignited by Principal Zhu's words. It was as if they were the people who would embark on the noble path of magic in the future. They imagined the future...

Lin Lan was indeed shocked by such words. Although demons were in power in this world, there was never a shortage of outstanding people among humans.

They built up civilization to resist demons. Even if the demons were powerful, humans would create and explore to reach the pinnacle of magic.

Survival is the instinct of all living things, and courage is the hymn of human victory!
After the opening ceremony, Lin Lan and the other two also came to their class: Class 4 of Grade 1.

Lin Lan is number 49, one place lower than Mo Fan. Because she was admitted through recommendation, her high school entrance examination results were not counted. The school ranked students according to their grades.

"You two came in through the back door. Now it depends on whether you two will awaken or not..." Zhao Kunsan spoke again when he saw Lin Lan and Mo Fan were the last ones in line. Lin Lan and Mo Fan, who always spoke in a nasty way, would not listen to him.

"Zhao Kunsan, look at your teeth. It's not hard for me to suspect that you and dogs have the same ancestor. You bite everyone you see."

"Not only do you look like a pig, you also have the temperament of a pig and you talk like a pig."

Lin Lan and Mo Fan started to argue directly, and Zhao Kunsan's face turned green.

"How dare you two yell here when you came in through the backdoor? Fuck you."

When everyone looked at this, Zhao Kunsan's face turned from green to red and he stood up and cursed, his face as angry as a monkey's butt.

"Students in the back row, please be quiet! If you disrupt the rules again, get out!"

Zhao Kunsan, who had stood up, sat down again after hearing what was said, but he was obviously very angry.

……

"The following will come up in order of seat number to awaken."

"Number 1, Mu Bai."
