In the purest magical contests and practical combat, Oakwood Academy has always been ranked first among the academies.

Oakwood Academy may occasionally be outmaneuvered by other academies, elite magical artifacts, advanced potions, or unpredictable tactics, but overall, it still holds the top position in combat.

Therefore, the Oak Academy has a dedicated practice field, which is very large and similar to the basketball court, football field, volleyball court, etc. in Li Wenyin's original world.

Oak House has no access restrictions; students from other houses are welcome to come and go as they please, as long as they are not afraid of being kicked out by Oak House students.

Therefore, only a very small number of shameless students from other colleges will appear here.

As it happens, Li Wenyin is an extremely shameless person.

-

Oak Park 11th District Practice Range.

There was no one around Yu Lanxie. The fence separated the practice areas, and he was the only one in this small area.

He stretched out his long legs, sat on the chair, and waved his wand, sending several empty soda cans placed in front of him flying one after another.

Yu Lanxie's expression remained unchanged as he casually glanced at the other students gathered together on the other side of the fence.

boring.

"Hi, classmate."

Upon hearing the sound, Yu Lanxie turned his head and saw a girl wearing the Obsidian Academy uniform standing at the entrance of the 11th District Small Practice Field.

"Looking for me?" Yu Lanxie slightly raised his eyelids and looked him up and down. "You are Li Wenyin."

Li Wenyin was somewhat surprised.

"You recognize me?"

She was puzzled, thinking that this shouldn't be the case.

"What's the problem? We're going to compete tomorrow," Yu Lanxie snorted. "What reason do I have not to know my competitor?"

Li Wenyin pondered for a moment, wondering if Mu was deceiving her.

But what lies could a little kid tell? Li Wenyin decided to try again.

Yu Lanxie: "What brings you here now...?"

Before she could finish speaking, Li Wenyin boldly and fiercely declared:

"Alright, you'd better wait here obediently!"

Yu Lanxie: "?"

No, her?

Before Yu Lanxie could even relax his brow, Li Wenyin had already left.

-

Li Wenyin came over with a new look.

She took off her school uniform jacket, rolled it up, pulled up the sleeves, and tied the jacket around her waist.

His face was smeared with ash, and his darting eyes seemed to be plotting something. As soon as he rushed in, he raised his hand to greet everyone.

"Hey, senior."

Yu Lanxie hadn't left after all. He was sitting with his legs crossed, leaning back, and supporting himself on the chair with his hands.

He stared intently at her.

"Li Wenyin, what exactly are you going to do?"

Li Wenyin looked utterly surprised again, exclaiming, "You knew it was me?"

"Otherwise what?" Yu Lanxie asked with a leisurely smile, "Did you go out and get beaten up and come back to me crying about it?"

Li Wenyin touched the dust off her face.

"No, this is my ingenious design."

"What was designed?"

Li Wenyin couldn't tell him that.

We can't just tell him to look at his weaknesses directly, can we?

Undeterred by her failure, Li Wenyin turned and left, intending to try again with a different look. She wondered if her voice had been recognized, so she decided to try a different tone next.

"Wait a minute."

Yu Lanxie called out to her.

Li Wenyin turned to look at her.

Yu Lanxie's confident smile held a hint of doubt: "You just threatened me, telling me to wait here. What did you mean? Did you want to challenge me to a fight beforehand? And your helpers didn't come?"

"No, I just wanted you to wait."

Li Wenyin thought to herself that she should test him.

But she was afraid she couldn't beat him in a fight, and since they weren't close enough to try to get information from him indirectly, she decided to just make a sudden, harsh statement to bluff him and keep him there, wondering what she was going to do. That way, Li Wenyin's goal would be achieved.

Yu Lan smiled wickedly: "So I'll do whatever you tell me to do?"

"Isn't this...remarkably effective?" Li Wenyin stared at him, and now he was just waiting patiently.

Yu Lanxie: "..."

He had a feeling that he had encountered a mentally ill person today, and he couldn't muster any arrogance.

-

Ten minutes later.

Li Wenyin is here again.

This time, she went even further, painting her face completely covered in graffiti. As soon as she rushed in, she looked at Yu Lanxie with great interest, anticipating his reaction.

Yu Lanxie stared at her silently.

Now, how should I put it, he's a little wary.

He had long heard that the students of Obsidian Academy were eccentric and generally mentally unstable, but he had initially dismissed it as mere gossip. However, after seeing them today, he was beginning to believe it.

What exactly is Li Wenyin up to?

Yu Lanxie: "Li Wenyin, this isn't the school clinic."

Li Wenyin's expression instantly fell, and she walked away dejectedly.

-

Next to the grove of trees outside the practice field.

Mu sat on the bench, her feet not touching the ground, swaying gently, and saw Li Wenyin return, heartbroken once again.

"Has my senior been recognized again?"

"Yeah," Li Wenyin plopped down, rubbing Mu You's head in annoyance. "Youyou, are you sure you're not mistaken? I feel like he has no problem recognizing people. Why do I feel like you're playing me?"

Mu blinked again.

"It should be correct, senior. Do you want to try it again?"

But he did not deny the last sentence.

Mu reached out and took the initiative to wipe the mud off Li Wenyin's face.

"But what kind of appearance can I change? How exactly did Yu Lanxie recognize me...?"

Li Wenyin was pondering to herself, muttering to herself.

"We can ask Senior Qin Guanyu about transformation, but testing someone's face blindness seems a bit unethical. Senior Qin wouldn't do anything unethical, only I do, so what other tricks do we have..."

Mu looked quietly at Li Wenyin's red hair tie that made her pigtails.

"Senior, would you like to take this off and try it on?"

"What?"

Mu then offered to pick them for her.

The woven red rope wasn't tied tightly; a small knot came off with a pull, and Li Wenyin's hair fell down.

Mu didn't think much of it and tore it off by herself. Only after she finished did she realize that she had offended him. She paused for a moment and moved slightly to the side.

They've gone too far with their childish behavior.

Li Wenyin, on the other hand, was excited on her own.

"That makes sense. What if it's based on hairstyle? I'll go try it now. Youyou, you sit here and wait for me."

"......Um."

Mu was holding two red ribbons.

-

Yu Lanxie put his hands in his pockets, put away his wand, and then pulled out a blade of grass from somewhere, holding it in his mouth, and stared ahead with an air of arrogance.

Another girl from Kokuyoin arrived at the entrance of the training ground in District 11. She remained silent, only looking thoughtfully at Yu Lanxie inside, without uttering a word.

Yu Lanxie spoke first, "You're also a student of Obsidian Academy. Have you seen Li Wenyin from your academy? Tell her I'm leaving if she has nothing else to do."

"Um?"

Li Wenyin was taken aback.

Good heavens, he really doesn't recognize himself!

So, people are identified by their hairstyles and headwear?

What if it looks very ordinary, with nothing on it?

Li Wenyin thought again that with Yu Lanxie's arrogance and domineering nature, he didn't need to recognize anyone. He could just pretend to be indifferent to people and that would make it impossible for anyone to tell that he was face-blind.

Just in case, Li Wenyin spoke in a cold voice.

"I saw her leave."

"Tsk, I'm leaving then." Yu Lanxie put his hands in his pockets, looking nonchalant, his school uniform not even properly worn.

Li Wenyin pondered, and from what he said, it seemed he really had been obediently waiting here all along.

They're quite obedient.

Does that mean he's easier to talk to than I thought?

"Yu, do you have any plans for tomorrow's academy competition?" Li Wenyin asked directly.

They take advantage of people's face blindness and inability to recognize others, and directly ask about their plans.

"No," Yu Lanxie laughed arrogantly, "I don't need a plan. No matter what the competition is about, I will definitely win."

Li Wenyin: "So, do you have any sure-fire winning techniques?"

"Yes, there is," Yu Lan said with a wicked smile, "but why would I tell the students of Obsidian Academy?"

I want to win too.

Li Wenyin did something completely unexpected. She took a sincere approach, bowing slightly and looking at him with her clear, large eyes.

"Please teach me, Yu Lanxie."

Yu Lanxie: "..."

-

Why would a student from Obsidian Academy seek his advice, a student from Oak Academy? He hadn't exactly been polite to her, so why was she unmoved and instead asking him for guidance?

With a strange and subtle mindset, Yu Lanxie actually started sharing.

Spellcasting usually involves silently reciting incantations in one's mind, concentrating one's energy to mobilize the magical power within the body, and then casting the spell.

The control of magic and the feeling of casting spells are things that don't exist in books; they are things that students must learn on their own.

How much do you know about music?

Yu Lan asked a question.

Li Wenyin thought for a moment and said, "Not bad, just tone-deaf."

"..." Yu Lanxie's lips twitched. That's practically musical idiocy. "You can sing basic nursery rhymes, right?"

Li Wenyin: "Yes, I'm good at this."

"Music has rhythm, and so does spellcasting. Once you master the spellcasting rhythm that suits you, you can cast spells more quickly and accurately, achieving a balance between speed and precision without wasting magic power."

Yu Lanxie drew his wand and with a flick of his wrist, unleashed a wind spell with lightning speed. The wind swept across the scattered aluminum cans on the ground at an astonishing speed.

Very skillful magical technique.

Li Wenyin was so excited when she saw it.

"And there is resonance between rhythms," Yu Lanxie put away his wand. "Try chanting the spell in your mind with a rhythm of music you are familiar with. Perhaps your body's instincts are better at using magic than you are."

This is a very novel concept.

Li Wenyin rubbed her hands together, took out her magic wand, and couldn't wait to try it out.

The familiar rhythm of the music, the familiar rhythm of the music...

But Li Wenyin is a complete music idiot; she really knows very little about songs.

Got it!

Li Wenyin raised her wand, chanting a spell in her mind and singing a song, aiming the wand at the aluminum cans that had suffered many times.

"Makka, Baka, Aka, Wakka, Mika Makka Mo!"

"Makka, Baka, Abba, Yaka, Ikaakkao!"

To Li Wenyin's surprise, she discovered that as soon as she sang a few words, the magic power within her body would be smoothly transferred out, and in conjunction with the wind magic incantation, it would quickly and accurately hit the cans one by one in rhythm.

It's not about using magic with conventional mental control, but rather following the rhythm of the music and obeying one's own bodily instincts, letting the body use magic on its own, naturally and in perfect harmony.

After all, for them, magicians, their bodies and magic are one.

Moreover, after casting the spell, Li Wenyin felt refreshed and energetic, with almost no dizziness or exhaustion from casting too quickly or depleting her magic power. She truly cast the spell without wasting a single bit of her energy!

This is the power of catchy, addictive songs!

Li Wenyin felt as if she had discovered a new continent, found the key to martial arts secrets, and ascended to the Great Ascension realm in one step.

Although singing this kind of song while casting spells might make me seem a little dim-witted, it greatly increases the effectiveness!

"...A strange song," Yu Lanxie commented, "but it's inexplicably catchy."

Moreover, Yu Lanxie felt that this song left a very deep impression on him. He had only heard Li Wenyin sing it once, and although he couldn't remember the lyrics, he strangely remembered the melody and could hum it himself.

"What?" Li Wenyin exclaimed in shock, "You don't have makka pak ka here?"

Yu Lanxie: "First time meeting you."

So, in that case...

Li Wenyin gripped her magic wand tightly, ready to unleash her skills once again.

"Give me O-bubble, give me O-bubble, O-bubble fruit milk O! O! O!"

"You love me, I love you, Mixue Ice Cream is so sweet—"

"The vast horizon is my love! At the foot of the rolling green hills, flowers are blooming!"

Practice makes perfect. Li Wenyin tried several spells in a row and found that they could indeed be cast very smoothly and instinctively, in sync with the rhythm of the music.

Li Wenyin was astonished. This was a miraculous discovery in the exploration of the mysteries of the human body. Yu Lanxie must be a genius. How did he discover such a smooth casting method?

Yu Lanxie was also stunned. What kind of nonsense was she singing? Why could it penetrate the eardrums and resonate so deeply with people? It was unforgettable after just one listen.

It's not easy to memorize a musical melody, but it's even harder to etch it into your subconscious and use it in conjunction with a spell.

How could Li Wenyin sing these melodies so casually, making them so deeply moving and unforgettable?

This girl is a genius!

Unfortunately, what Yu Lanxie didn't know was that these were the wisdom of humans from another world, an immortal achievement in the study of instinctual consciousness.

These deeply moving melodies, even if buried for hundreds of years, can still captivate listeners the moment they are unearthed.

This is the wisdom of humankind.

Li Wenyin felt that she had benefited greatly. With Yu Lanxie's generous sharing and a little more practice, her abilities would definitely improve significantly.

"Thank you so much, Yu Lanxie!"

"...Um," Yu Lanxie hesitated for a moment, not mentioning that he had also learned a lot from Li Wenyin's singing, and instead asked, "So, how did you feel about my guidance?"

"I've benefited greatly," Li Wenyin said excitedly. "Could we extend the time?"

Yu Lanxie: "?"
