The hero's gender is yet to be determined after rebirth.

"Lorenwei, Mr. Bulpo is, after all, a teacher at the academy..." Kurara, feeling a little reluctant, spoke up, hoping to persuade Lorenwei to go easy on him.

She felt that treating Loren's grandfather like that was a bit too much, and it would be awkward if they couldn't meet again in the future...

“I went easy on you; those were all spells with little offensive power.” Lorenwei pointed her index fingers at Bulbo, her hands trembling as if firing a gun, and said, “Next, you have to say… beep beep beep beep—”

"Beep beep beep beep—" Sure enough, Bulbo made a similar sound.

The old man started swearing, so the sound was muted...

Looking at the bruised and still-shaken Burbo, Lorenwei put her hands on her hips and said smugly, "How about that? I went easy on him, didn't I?"

Boulbo didn't know how to respond. After a long while, he finally managed to say, "It's not very hurtful, but it's extremely insulting!"

"Huh? Didn't you say things like 'great power' and 'hero'?" Meilan asked in surprise, unable to recall the old man's sophisticated vocabulary. "Why are you still saying 'that' now?"

"I...I..." Burbo finally blushed, feeling utterly humiliated by being questioned like this by an innocent girl.

Next, Lorenwei engaged in a magical battle with him, and this time Bulbo focused his mind on defeating Lorenwei.

However, Lorenwei, like a cunning little fox, always manages to escape using various tricks.

However, because he couldn't hurt her, Boulbo was constrained in every way and ended up being made miserable by her tricks.

"Damn it!" Burbo unleashed his full magical power, releasing a terrifying magical pressure.

He's going to go all out!

"Your starting stance is too slow!" Lorenwei appeared in front of him quickly, and instead of using magic, she used close combat techniques to rapidly attack multiple joints of Burbo.

Just as Burbo was showing off his power, he never expected that the magician Lorenwei would use martial arts. His arms, which he had just raised, suddenly felt a sharp pain. It turned out that both of his elbows had been dislocated by the attack.

Oh no! I was careless! She actually knows joint locks?! With a thought, Burbo activated his protective spell and instantly flashed to a hundred meters away.

“You lost.” Lorenwei didn’t chase after him, but smiled and waved to Bulpo, who had fled to a distance.

Only then did Boulbo realize that he had gone beyond the circle.

"How is this possible?! I actually lost to a kid who just started school?!" Burbo roared angrily at his mistake.

Lorenwei was even more furious: "I'm not a little kid!"

Chapter 157: Will the Black Robe Awaken the Demon King? Lorenwei cosplays Huang Rong.

Lorenwei looked on with a hint of regret for Bulpo, shrugged and said, "What a pity, Mr. Bulpo. We hope you will try harder next time. We are still very interested in you."

"I didn't come here to apply for a job as a helper!" Burbo was practically fuming.

Lost, really lost.

Bulbo couldn't believe it. His overall strength was clearly far superior to Lorenvie's, yet she had completely outmaneuvered him. Various traps were set, and her magic was subtly and seamlessly used, causing him to fall into her traps despite his precautions. He became a frightened bird and instantly teleported out of the circle.

The key issue is that he doesn't dare, or rather, shouldn't, hurt her, after all, she's an elder. If he hurts her, not only will the Great Sage and the Cardinal come knocking on his door, but even Bordonna would probably be furious with him.

"..." Burbo stared wide-eyed, his steps heavy as he returned to the sidelines, looking at Lorenwei for a long time without saying a word.

Kurala came over, pulled Lorenvi aside, and said politely to Burbo, "Lorenvi just used underhanded methods, and there was no real attack at all."

“Yes, look, his face is all swollen,” Lorenwei exclaimed.

Meilan, standing on the sidelines, pursed her lips and chimed in, "That's right, he was stung by wasps like this, how can you say he didn't?"

Kurala wished she could cover their mouths.

Burbo retorted angrily, "If I were to use my full strength, I could easily take on all of you at once."

“I believe you, I believe you.” Lorenwei nodded repeatedly, and when Bulbo’s expression softened a little, she continued, “Just take that as me believing you.”

Boulbo's lips twitched a few times.

So what if you go all out? I'm a true man for three minutes, and in Sword Saint form, I can easily take you down! Lorenwei definitely doesn't want to acknowledge him as her mentor. Legendary heroes are her friends from a past life, and in this life, they're like her adoptive parents. Even if you're a Grand Magister, so what? Why do you think you can be my mentor?

“Ah, they were rash, please forgive them, Mr. Burbo,” Kurara quickly said. “If Mr. Burbo thinks highly of me, I would like to ask you to be my mentor. Would that be alright?”

She had just learned a lot and genuinely wanted to receive his guidance.

"Are you truly sincere?" Burbo blurted out the question instinctively. He was terrified of being tricked by Lorenwei...

“Yes.” Kurara nodded.

It wasn't just because he was Loren's grandfather in Kurala's eyes; Kurala wanted to learn real skills. Of course, the former reason played a significant role...

Looking at Kurala's earnest eyes and recalling how Kurala had shown him the utmost respect in the team, Burbo finally agreed, "Kurala... you're not naturally gifted, so I can only do my best to teach you. If things don't go well, don't blame me."

"Thank you, Instructor Burbo!" Kurala bowed happily.

Lorenwei stared at Burpo with envy, jealousy, and hatred. If he were any younger, Lorenwei would definitely not have agreed and would have resolutely stopped him.

"Kulara is my girl, why should I need you to teach her? I can teach her myself!" Lorenwei thought to herself, unconvinced.

Of course, she was also aware that although she was a sword saint in her previous life, she was a hastily developed one and did lack experience in some areas. In particular, if she were to teach knights, she wouldn't have much cross-class experience to impart.

It's clear that this old man is indeed quite skilled. He was just caught off guard and was so frightened by his years of safety habits that he teleported a long way away.

This sense of safety actually made Lorenwei somewhat agree, at least he could teach his wife that saving her life and escaping was the priority, and that she shouldn't risk her life when faced with danger.

"You think you can teach her well? I don't quite believe it," Lorenwei said sarcastically from the side.

Bourb snorted: "Three months to become a Grand Knight, one year to become a Knight Commander! Within three years, you may become a Paladin!"

Kurara's eyes lit up.

Lorenwei, however, still stirred things up: "Did you take something? What's so great about forcibly increasing your cultivation level?"

Burbo's temper flared: "No treasures, no trickery, just comprehension and cultivation advancing in tandem! What's the bet? I say, under my tutelage, Kurara will advance to Grand Knight within a month!"

Lorenvi looked at him with disdain: "You said three months a minute ago? Did I believe you?"

Burbo angrily retorted, "If I teach him with all my might, he can be promoted to Knight Commander in six months!"

Lorenwei: "If you can do that, I'll give you the staff you want!"

"A dazzling galaxy?" It was Bulbo's turn to have his eyes light up.

Kurara, standing nearby, asked in confusion, "Huh? What?"

Lorenwei ignored her for the moment and said to Burbo like a fighting rooster, "I bet on the Brilliant Galaxy, what are you betting on?"

"I was wondering why they would give me that treasure so easily? Now I understand!" Bulbo also took out a B-grade staff treasure: "If Kurara doesn't become a paladin within two years, I'll eat this staff!"

Lorenwei reached out and touched the staff to confirm it was real before saying, "If Kurara becomes a paladin within two years, I admit I made the staff!"

Bourbo, oblivious to the semantic difference, readily agreed to the bet: "Hahaha, it's quite amusing to make the hero's daughter admit to being mentally challenged! Alright! It's a deal!"

"Okay! It's a deal!"

Lorenvi chuckled inwardly, realizing she was already in an invincible position from the start. "When the time comes, I'll just give you a high-quality replica of the magic wand, then admit I'm a fake. So what? You think you can take a junior seriously? Go ahead and bite me if you dare! I'll ask the Cardinal and the Great Sage first."

Normally, they wouldn't think about benefiting their parents, but now they're thinking about finding connections.

Of course, this was just Lorenwei's personal calculation; she had never truly submitted to Burbo.

"I know the little villa you live in," said Burbo. "It's Bordonna's hidden office number thirteen. I'll go to that small training ground on the outskirts every day to teach you. Whether you can endure the hardship is up to you."

No wonder he's Bordonna's father; he even knows this. Lorenwei glanced at Burpo again.

"Thank you so much, mentor!" Kurala quickly expressed her gratitude.

"You've taken on a disciple, aren't you going to give him any treasures?" Lorenwei suddenly asked.

Kurala quickly pulled her along.

Burbo glared at Lorenwei: "I'm a mentor, not a preacher."

"Hmph, stingy." Lorenwei turned to Kurara and said, "Come on, Kurara, congratulations on getting a mentor. I have some protective crystal treasures to give you as a congratulatory gift."

Take a bracelet out of the space ring and put it on Kurara.

"Cough cough cough." Siruf coughed a few times from the side.

Meilan asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"

After rolling her eyes at Lorenwei, Siluf returned to Melanie and said, "The melon seeds are too salty."

"Are you eating lemon-flavored sunflower seeds?" Lorenwei wondered to herself.

Kurara naturally pushed the bracelet away, refusing Lorenwei: "No, no, I can't accept it."

"Lorenvi, you're unworthy of being the daughter of a hero, bullying an old man." Bulborra, not one to back down, rummaged around for a while before pulling out a cloak clip and handing it to Kurara, "This is for your protection."

"It's filthy, let me wipe it clean." Lorenwei took it and examined it for a while. She found that it was made of a special kind of jade, which was even better than she had imagined. It did indeed faintly emit the fluctuations of defensive and protective magic.

However, these protective treasures can only defend against large-scale attacks and can save lives, but they cannot protect against things like the previous corpse bee stings.

After Lorenwei checked and found nothing wrong, she gave it to Kurara.

"Thank you, mentor." Ignoring Lorenvi's caution, Kurara happily thanked Burbo. This was a gift from Lorenvi's grandfather; did it mean he liked her, a junior? That was great! Now she'd have an extra informant when visiting Lorenvi's house in the future…

"To be a guest? No, I can't just be a guest." Kurara thought to herself, and her face flushed slightly.

A group of faculty and staff had already gathered at the sidelines. Since it was during class time, there were relatively few students. They were all quite disappointed to see that the two had stopped fighting.

Lorenwei and the others ignored them and started walking back.

“I’ll take you to train and show you the facilities.” Burbo also went to the small villa.

Lorenwei quietly observed that Bulpo indeed knew how to set up barriers around the villa. She should add more traps in the future to guard against him.

In fact, Burbo didn't have the same ulterior motives as Lorenwei. He was just too proud to admit it and genuinely intended to train a well-behaved child to see how well he could train an apprentice.

It's a pity that Kurara's talent is the worst among the four. But perhaps talent is inversely proportional to attitude; Princess Kurara has none of the arrogance of nobles, and her attitude is the best among the four. Lorenwei goes without saying, but Sylph never even looked at her properly from beginning to end, and Melanie always had a suspicious attitude. Burpo felt very hurt.

Watch as I promote Kurara to Grand Knight within a month! Bulbo confidently declares he's prepared to impress everyone; let's see who dares to challenge him then!

No students or faculty members could approach the small training ground on the edge of the villa.

Lorenve said to Sylph, "You stay with Kurara, I'll go find... Oh, no need."

She saw Bordonna arrive.

"..." Bordonna's face was gloomy. She did not respond to the greetings from Lorenwei and the others, and went straight to Burpo.

Her chest was pounding with anger, though perhaps she wasn't actually angry...

Boerbo tilted his head, looking completely unreliable: "What's wrong? Are you here to upset your dad?"

"What are you doing bothering Lorenwei?" Bordonna asked through gritted teeth.
