Full-Time Magister: The Ruler of Wind and Rain

The training of mages is a traditional system established by various countries in modern times, which involves high school mages students undergoing practical (or at least close to) combat training.

The news that Mingzhu Academy's preparatory class was going to conduct a mage training program with Huayao Middle School was quickly exposed on Mingzhu's campus forum. The senior students cheered, after all, the mage training program was equivalent to military training in the magical world. Now those little geniuses in the preparatory class were also forced to participate. Wouldn't it be great to watch the excitement?

Even more extreme, some senior students with strong academic abilities formed a team on the forum, preparing to follow the preparatory class group and give everyone a live broadcast of their outdoor activities. However, the senior students with such bold ideas soon discovered that not only were their accounts temporarily banned, but the menacing professors from the school administration office also approached their advisors...

Of course, that's beside the point. Downstairs at the Qing Campus teaching building, a bus picked up all 20 preparatory students from this year's cohort. The teachers leading the group were their homeroom teacher, Yu Xiujia, and Professor Gu Han, who was in charge of international exchanges. After everyone was seated, Yu Xiujia began explaining the rules of this training program:

"Dear preparatory class geniuses, we are about to conduct a joint mage training exercise with Huayao Private High School, the best high school in Shanghai. Of course, for safety reasons, only their top classes will participate. We, being the best of the best, will all participate. However, mage training takes place in the wild. If any student is unwilling to participate, please message me privately now, and I will take care of bringing you back to school later. But," her tone suddenly turned sharp, "I don't want any cowards like that in our class! Those who don't participate will have all school-provided resources suspended starting today!"

This little provocation made the students in the preparatory class blush slightly, and at this moment, Gu Han stepped forward to explain the rules. He sat calmly in his seat, but his voice reached everyone's ears:

"Dear preparatory class students, I will now explain the rules for Mingzhu's participation in the joint training exercise. First, our preparatory class of 20 students will be divided into four teams, each joining one of the four teams from Huayao Middle School, forming four training teams. Furthermore, within each team, students from Mingzhu and Huayao can each nominate one candidate for team leader, but whether you become team leader depends on your abilities. You are all capable mages, and I encourage you to strive to demonstrate your abilities, achieve excellent results, and bring glory to Mingzhu!"

Perhaps feeling the appeal wasn't strong enough, or perhaps the old man was deliberately keeping everyone in suspense, he paused before continuing, "For this mage training exercise, both we and Huayao have provided some resources as a prize. These resources will be distributed according to the participants' performance, so I hope everyone will do their best. Those who win the team championship and the individual championship in this training exercise will also receive additional rewards."

They have the resources! Wang Yu, who had been dozing off, was suddenly wide awake. As expected of Huayao, a magic high school, they could actually spare the resources to organize such an event, just like Mingzhu. They truly deserve to be called the strongest private magic high school in Shanghai, boasting a wealth of money!

After announcing the rewards, Yu Xiujia organized everyone into teams. In principle, the teams were to be formed freely, but in reality, a two-tiered division emerged: one group remembered Wang Yu's outstanding performance during the "interview" and hoped to join his team; the other group centered around Mu Fangwei, who had recently reached the initial stage of mastery. This guy was from a branch of the Mu family and was unknown when he entered the school, but his family must have poured a lot of resources into him, which boosted his cultivation level. According to Cheng Hui, Mu Fangwei had been boasting to everyone that he was about to break through to the intermediate stage and become an 18-year-old intermediate-level genius mage, which made Wang Yu, who was not yet 17 and already at the intermediate stage of two elements, chuckle to himself.

However, the polarized chaos didn't last long. Wang Yu, still sentimental, pulled Wu Shulan, Xie Ze, and Cheng Hui into one team, and then gave the last spot to Xie Ze's girlfriend, a girl named Huang Tongxi. Wang Yu thought to himself, rather immorally, that the name sounded very much like something out of a hardware and building materials store.

In short, after the teams were divided, Huang Tongxi, who was joining the group for the first time, got along well with everyone. Unbeknownst to many, this seemingly clean and neat girl was actually a lightning elementalist with a level 2 initial cultivation. This made Wang Yu a little curious, as all the lightning elementalists he knew had a clean and neat style. Could it be that magic elementalist is related to personality?

In short, after the one-to-many and many-to-one introductions, Huang Tongxi officially joined the team. A short while later, the bus stopped at Tianpingshan Station. This route had been communicated beforehand; after all, there weren't any challenging places within Shanghai suitable for these newbies to hone their skills. The two schools discussed it and came up with an idea: "Hey, I have an idea, how about we take the students to Suzhou?"

This is why Wang Yu and his group got off at the large square in front of the Hunter's Hall at Tianping Mountain Station. This is an important node connecting the SZ city center and the ring city outpost, where the Hunter Alliance and military mages are very active.

"Remember what I told you!" Yu Xiujia began to instruct, "The post stations around each city are located on the edge of the safe zone. Outside the post stations, demons may appear. So, before you have enough ability to deal with the demons, those who leave the post station boundaries may return as chewed-up skeletons!"

Just then, the students from Huayao High School arrived, bringing a hundred top students in four buses. Among them, Wang Yu spotted a familiar figure. Wasn't this the opponent who had competed against him in the Pearl Preparatory Class entrance competition, relying on his dazzling golden magical artifacts? He hadn't expected that this guy would also dye his hair blonde, in addition to his magical artifacts.

That guy had obviously noticed Wang Yu too. He deliberately broke away from the group to greet Wang Yu: "Zhao Manyan, please guide me in the future."

Huh? This guy is actually Zhao Manyan, the future defensive master, the dashing and handsome Zhao family's one-against-six super true man, with his golden tortoise shell? Good heavens, I didn't even recognize him back then! If I were a destruction mage, this guy would definitely be my best support, but unfortunately, I can't.

Suppressing his surprise, Wang Yu grasped Zhao Man's outstretched right hand. After exchanging contact information, they returned to their respective groups. Once all the students from Huayao High School had disembarked, several mages in military uniforms appeared on the platform at the front. They cleared their throats, picked up microphones, and began to "read out" the plan for this mage training exercise.

"Welcome to the adult world, you newbies." The dark-skinned, scarred man opened with a bang, "I am Feng Yang, the chief instructor of your high school students' outdoor picnic, or to put it more politely, your mage training. I hope you high school students who have come here for a picnic will have a happy time and leave happily."
