Xu Fang didn't know if he was simply praising him or had some other purpose, so he just kept eating to appease him.
"Well... judging from your appearance, you're a high school student, right?" the military magistrate asked casually.
"I'll be a sophomore when school starts."
"Hello, Grade 11!"
The military strategist slapped his thigh suddenly, his eyes shining brightly, and pulled out his phone: "Come on, let's add each other as friends!"
Chapter 30: I'm begging for food in Gugu!
"Should I sweep you, or will you sweep me?"
"I'll scan you."
drop!
Seeing the message "Successfully added" on his phone screen, the military strategist beamed and patted Xu Fang's shoulder vigorously.
"Great! When you start your military training at the beginning of the semester, come directly to our class. If you perform well, I'll decide to appoint you as the vice class monitor!"
Before Xu Fang could respond, a thunderous voice rang out:
"Qi Laosan, you shameless bastard, how dare you deceive the flowers of our motherland!"
A burly man with hair as short as steel needles walked over, muttering curses:
"The vice class monitor is supposed to be the top-ranked person on each class's 'Death List.' With your abilities, you could be the vice class monitor anywhere. How dare you shamelessly take all the credit for yourself!"
His voice was filled with righteous indignation.
Qi Laosan rolled his eyes and cursed, "What are you pretending to be so big for, Qin? You dare to say you're not here to poach people?"
"Hmph! Don't lump me in with you!"
Old Qin took out his phone: "Young man, you're a light-elemental mage, and so am I! Feel free to ask me any questions you encounter during your cultivation... Scan this QR code."
Xu Fang: "..."
He underestimated the influence of "Fluorescent Radiance". After Qi Laosan and Lao Qin, almost all the new recruit squad leaders came.
The frenzy reminded Xu Fang of undead besieging a city. Because there were so many people, he decisively slipped away before being crushed into a sausage.
Last time I ran away in such a sorry state, I still encountered a one-eyed demon wolf.
As dawn broke, the faint tremors that had been heard from the distant earth had disappeared.
Third floor of the hotel.
Xu Fang opened the window, and what came into view was the city, streets, and alleys, and what he saw was a giant, long shadow that was hazy in the morning mist.
The aroma of steamed buns wafted from the breakfast shop downstairs, where people in slippers, yawning, and office workers constantly checking their watches lined up in front of the shop.
The years are quiet.
The terrifying tide of undead outside the city seemed to exist nowhere in this world.
Xu Fang took out his phone and dialed a number that Zhan Kong had given him before he came. He had originally planned to take a taxi as soon as he arrived in the ancient capital, but it was too late yesterday, and Xu Fang didn't want to bother anyone.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is not being answered. Please try again later..."
No one answered.
Xu Fang was a little surprised.
However, considering that Zhan Kong's acquaintances are mostly soldiers, they might have been killing undead on the city wall yesterday and are resting now.
Xu Fang stopped calling, packed up his personal information, and prepared to apply for temporary enrollment.
······
The Second Middle School of the Ancient Capital.
The black van slowly came to a stop, and a plain-looking young man with a slightly puffy figure got out of the car.
The young man yawned, revealing deep bags under his eyes. Despite being only a high school student, he exuded a sense of exhaustion, as if his kidneys were being overworked.
"School doesn't start until September, why do I have to come to school now?"
The driver, smiling obsequiously, said, "Young Master, this is the Master's order. He hopes you can cast a beginner-level two spell within a month so you can secure a spot as vice-class monitor during military training..."
"Alright, alright!"
Sun Ruizhi waved his hand impatiently: "Stop nagging, stop nagging! He's just a lowly vice class monitor, isn't he?"
"Young Master, only the vice-class monitor is qualified to compete for the Wild Goose Pagoda..."
"I'm a lightning mage, understand? A lightning mage!" Sun Ruizhi rudely interrupted him: "Isn't the little vice class monitor a piece of cake for you?"
“I know.” The driver was respectful but did not back down: “But this is an ancient capital. When facing the undead, lightning does not have an absolute advantage.”
Lightning is known as the king of elements, partly because of its domineering destructive power and partly because of its virtually unbeatable paralyzing effect.
To deal with demons, a single lightning strike paralyzes their muscles, rendering them unable to retaliate.
But the undead are different; these things have hardly any flesh on their bodies!
The destructive power of lightning-type attacks may not necessarily be stronger than that of light-type attacks.
Sun Ruizhi snorted coldly, feeling quite dissatisfied. Yesterday, he was partying with a bunch of cronies, and this morning he was dragged out of bed early in the morning.
He would have already lost his temper if his father hadn't ordered him to.
"Let's go, young master, let's go apply for the school stay permit first," the driver urged again, and Sun Ruizhi reluctantly followed.
Upon arriving at the office, the two were surprised to find that, in addition to the teacher in charge, there was another young man sitting there.
The young man was dressed in ordinary, mass-produced clothes, a typical loser's outfit. His hair, however, was unexpectedly flashy, and his looks far surpassed Sun Ruizhi's.
"Pretty boy," Pu Chou Sun Ruizhi said sourly.
"Teacher Qian, I've brought Sun Ruizhi here to report for duty," the driver said respectfully. If it were just an ordinary teacher, the Sun family wouldn't even give a damn about him.
But this Teacher Qian is different. He also comes from a prominent local family and is the instructor leading this military training.
"Okay, come in." Qian Kuan nodded, gesturing for the two to enter.
Sun Ruizhi was unhappy again.
Damn it, you were smiling so brightly at that loser just now, why are you acting all high and mighty with me?
He looked at the driver: "Three minutes. I need all his information."
"Okay, Master."
The driver nodded, then turned to Qian Kuan and asked, "Teacher, who is this student...?"
"His name is Xu Fang, a light-elemental mage. In order to cultivate and become stronger, he came to the ancient capital alone from a small city on the South China Sea." Qian Kuan subconsciously smiled when he mentioned Xu Fang.
The large dropout rate among second-year high school students has been a long-standing and difficult problem in the ancient capital.
In other cities, the opponents are often servant-level demons, or more reliably, summoned beasts. As long as they can cast spells normally, they are allowed to pass.
Ancient capitals are different.
That means you're literally on the city wall, facing a tidal wave of dead!
Every year, students are devoured by the undead, and if their bodies aren't collected in time, they turn into undead and turn against the school at night. Faced with this fear, those with weak minds simply dare not stay.
Even with a combination of carrot and stick measures—recording students' records and demerits for leaving the school, and awarding top students in military training the coveted opportunity to study at the Wild Goose Pagoda—it still couldn't stop the exodus.
Xu Fang is a rare person who goes against the tide; this is the passion and responsibility that a young mage should have!
"Light system?" Sun Ruizhi sneered.
Master Guang is such a useless person, he's only of some use in the ancient capital.
The case is solved! It turns out he was a stinky out-of-towner begging for food in Gu!
"Come on, let's test your strength." After filling out the forms, Qian Kuan was about to lead the two to the large playground.
Xu Fang was a little surprised: "Do I have to test my strength just to report in?"
Sun Ruizhi scoffed: "Where did this bumpkin come from? Do you think Gudu No. 2 High School is some run-down high school in a small county town? With so many facilities and resources, do you think just anyone can use them?"
Xu Fang looked at him: "Who are you?"
“The Sun family, Sun Ruizhi.”
Xu Fang said, "The name is quite fitting; he is indeed wise."
"What did you say!" Sun Ruizhi roared in anger.
Although I don't understand what it means, there's no need to ask what it means; this bastard is definitely not trying to be nice!
"Young Master!" the driver whispered, reminding him. Only then did Sun Ruizhi suppress his emotions, his face darkening as he pondered something.
Come to the playground.
"Who wants to go first?" Qian Kuan asked.
"Me first!" Sun Ruizhi raised his hand first, glancing at Xu Fang. He wanted to use his thunderous power to make this stinky outsider realize the difference in their abilities.
It would be even better if it could scare the magic out of its budding state.
Having located the magical puppet, Sun Ruizhi activated the Star Orbit and shouted, "Thunder Seal - Python Mark!"
Purple lightning bolts gathered in the sky and then struck down hard, hitting the puppet.
Click, click, click!
A tooth-grinding sound came from inside the doll, followed by a deafening explosion.
"Not bad." Qian Kuan's expression remained unchanged as he casually jotted something down in his notebook.
To be fair, Sun Ruizhi's strength is really good, on par with Xu Zhaoting. The key difference is that Xu Zhaoting is the top student at Tianlan Magic High School, the teacher's darling, while Sun Ruizhi can only get a "good" rating.
As expected of an ancient capital...
"Next, Xu Fang."
