Heaven has bound me to weakness? I angrily unleash the Eight Gates!

Seeing that the two did not fight, the group of teachers left disappointed and began to prepare for the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons on December 24.

"What a pity, I thought I could watch the two teachers fight."

The panda sighed.

These two teachers are well-known in the college; even the higher-ups can't do anything about them.

After the group parted ways, everyone returned to where they were supposed to go. Zenji Jinsuke also found a dormitory at the vocational high school and settled down temporarily.

Chapter 47 Crash Course

The next day, early in the morning, the four first-year students gathered at the college's playground.

Maki, Inu-maki, and Otsuko have already started running around the track to warm up, while Panda is cheering them on on the grass.

He was originally a cursed corpse created by Principal Moth, so this kind of physical exercise was useless to him; he could only sit and wait for the teacher to come.

"Looks like everyone's here pretty early."

Before long, Zenji Shinsuke arrived.

He and Gojo Satoru had arranged their schedules: physical training in the morning and each other's spellcasting in the afternoon.

He increased his workload, and Gojo Satoru naturally couldn't escape it either.

"Teacher of the Zen Temple, you've arrived."

The panda got up and went to Zenji Jinsuke.

Looking at the panda, which was almost as tall as him, Zenin Jinsuke stroked his chin and said, "You're Principal Yagami's masterpiece, aren't you?"

“Yes, Principal Moth is my creator, he’s like my father,” Panda said, scratching his head.

"It's truly a remarkable masterpiece."

Zenji Jinsuke greatly admired Yagami Seikyou's abilities. Creating cursed corpses that could automatically collect cursed power, possess independent consciousness, and even have emotions was equivalent to the other party having the ability to create an army of sorcerers.

If Xia Youjie were replaced by Ye Mo Zhengdao, would the goal of eliminating all non-magicians still be achievable?

Zenji Jinsuke couldn't judge, but he knew that if the two could cooperate, even Gojo Satoru might not be able to stop them.

"Clap clap clap."

Thinking this, Zenji Jinsuke clapped his hands and shouted, "Alright, stop running around and let's get straight to the point."

Hearing the commotion, Maki and the others stopped and gathered in front of Zenji Jinsuke.

"Master, what do we do next?"

Maki was somewhat excited.

Although Zenin Shinsuke had often instructed her in some physical techniques before, he had never given her such a formal lesson before.

Zenji Jinsuke glanced at the four of them: the only son of the Inu-maki family, the principal's son, Gojo Satoru's relative, and his own disciple. What a great combination.

"There's still about a month until Xia You's Night Parade of One Hundred Demons. What you need to do is become as strong as possible."

Starting today, your morning lessons will consist of fighting against me.

You can only use physical techniques, but I'll be flexible and allow you to use magical powers and weapons.

Combining physical skills with magical power can help these guys adapt to their bodies better, and they might even have a chance to master Black Flash.

Hearing this, the group had no objections, since they all knew that the Zen temple teachers were there to teach them physical skills.

Maki pouted, a little annoyed, since she couldn't use her magic.

"Come on, let's get started. If you can hit me even once, you can leave get out of class early."

Zenji Jinsuke extended one hand and beckoned, while placing the other hand behind his back.

The meaning is obvious: he only uses one hand.

"Master, don't underestimate us!"

Maki took the lead, brandishing her long-handled sword and stabbing at Zenji Jinsuke.

Although she had never fought her master before, she had seen him fight other sorcerers when she was a child.

Although the master is very strong, is it a bit disrespectful to use only one hand?

As the long sword thrust out, Zenji Jinsuke merely tilted his head slightly, raised his hand, and flicked the blade with his finger.

A crisp, clear sound of a knife ringing out rang out.

Maki felt a violent tremor in her hand, and the knife flew to the side, causing her to lose her balance and almost slip from her grasp.

He quickly steadied himself, switched hands to grip the hilt of the knife, and his other hand was numb from the shock.

Pushing up her glasses, Maki's solemn expression revealed a hint of madness. This was her master's strength. Could she reach this level in the future?

"Everyone, be careful and work together!"

Maki shouted and charged forward again, knife in hand.

"I'm coming too!"

The panda roared, its massive body moving with the agility of a rabbit. It didn't have any special techniques; its strongest skill was physical combat.

Let's see how big the gap is between us and the strongest physical master in the college.

Seeing this, Yi Gu and Gou Juan exchanged a glance and also stepped forward to besiege Zenjuan Shen Jie.

But in Zenji Shinsuke's eyes, their actions were not much different from those of elementary school students.

Of course, let alone these little guys, even if Gojo Satoru only sparred with him in physical combat, he would be no different from an elementary school student.

Soon, an hour of fighting had passed, and the group was already feeling somewhat exhausted, but they still hadn't managed to land a single blow on each other.

"Don't just think about fighting. In the process of fighting, find your own shortcomings. Strike quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly. Don't hesitate. Target the vital points. Are you afraid of accidentally hurting me?"

"Maki, didn't you eat breakfast? You're so weak. Otsuko, you're supposed to be a Special Grade Mage, how can you be so bad at physical combat? Are you going to rely on Rika for every battle from now on?"

Panda, Dog Roll, you two... never mind, I guess I was asking too much of you.

After thinking for a long time, I really don't know how to describe these people.

From his perspective, the group had too many weaknesses. Although their stats weren't high, their skills were lacking. He figured they were in for a lot of trouble in the coming days.

"Roar!! How dare you mention Yi Gu!?"

A furious roar erupted from behind Yigu, unleashing a terrifying surge of magical power.

Upon hearing Zenin Jinsuke's words, Rika suddenly went berserk.

What does it mean to tell Yigu not to rely on her power? She deliberately wants Yigu to depend on her!

"Rika, don't be impulsive! Zen-in-sensei is doing this for my own good!"

Seeing Rika's fury, Otsuko quickly tried to comfort her, fearing that Rika and the teacher would get into a fight.

"Oh, so she's a yandere?"

Zenji Jinsuke looked at Rika, who had been provoked by a single sentence, and felt a little itchy to touch her.

Such terrifying curse power, how much life force would one gain from killing it?

"Fine, what can I do? I'm a teacher, so I'll forgive you this time. Just don't do it again next time."

Zenji Jinsuke glanced at Rika with a strange look in his eyes. Although she was a little girl turned into a curse, in his eyes she was just a cute upgrade material.

Rika stared at Zenjiro for a moment, then slowly closed the eye in the middle of her head and returned to Ekiku's body.

If it weren't for Yi Gu's sake, she would have definitely switched places with this guy.

How dare he look at her like that?

"That's enough for today. You can rest now. Go back and review today's battle. We'll continue tomorrow."

Zen-in Shinsuke didn't continue, lest the little ones be too traumatized.

After being freed, the group collapsed onto the lawn to rest. They had been tortured for over an hour, and were exhausted both physically and mentally.

"Clap clap clap."

At that moment, Gojo Satoru appeared next to Zenji Jinsuke and clapped his hands.

"Everyone, I will give you a spell lesson in one hour. Remember to keep to your time."

Seeing this, the group looked somewhat dejected. Why did they suddenly become so serious?

Aren't vocational colleges always very lenient with their students?

So, where exactly is the joy in "happy education"...?

Clearly, Gojo Satoru simply felt that if Zenin Jinsuke was taking it so seriously, why couldn't he?

The two teachers had a simple idea: just teach the students to become stronger. But Maki and the others had more to consider, since it was they who needed to become stronger.

Chapter 48 Don't Steal My Prey

Under the intense course schedule, the four first-year students made rapid progress, improving significantly in both physical skills and their understanding of spells and techniques.

Among them, Yi Gu made the most significant progress, with his strength improving by leaps and bounds.

Talent is something that allows people to catch up.

It has only been a year since Yigu joined the high school, and his strength, not to mention Rika's, is about on par with the others.

A month passed quickly, and Xia Youjie's Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts began...

As night approached, a large number of cursed spirits emerged in the skies, on the ground, and in the cities of Shinjuku and Kyoto, Tokyo.

Night Moth, Gojo Satoru, and Zenin Jinsuke stood on the street, watching the street filled with cursed spirits and the grappling sorcerers of the Summer Oil Gang around them.

"By luring the tiger away from the mountain, Xia Youjie's target is Yi Gu."

Night Moth saw through Xia Youjie's purpose, since Xia Youjie hadn't intended to hide it.

The purpose of releasing so many cursed spirits was to hold back the sorcerers from the two advanced colleges, so that he would have the opportunity to find Yigu alone, kill Yigu, and then steal Lixiang.

This plan is called the Battle for Rika.

"Just as I guessed, I've already sent Dog Roll and Panda back."

Wu Tiao Wu remained calm. He understood what Xia Youjie wanted. At this time, the college only had a group of four first-year students.

This is a perfect opportunity to use Xia Youjie to fully unleash Yi Gu's potential.

He believed that Xia Youjie would not harm the students of the vocational college.

"Jay probably won't let me go back easily."

Gojo Satoru looked at the Xia You Gang on the rooftop; they were all staring at him, clearly indicating that he was their target.

"Hey, why don't you hold these people off for me while I go back and check?"

Gojo Satoru looked at Zenji Jinsuke beside him and spoke.

Upon hearing this, Zenji Jinsuke raised an eyebrow, casually waved the broad-bladed dragon-whisker in his hand, glanced at Gojo Satoru, and asked, "Do you think that's possible?"

He had gone to great lengths to borrow this Soul Release Blade from Shen'er, which ignored physical hardness and cursed power defense, with the intention of killing all the level one and above cursed spirits in Shinjuku, and then going to Kyoto to kill the cursed spirits there.

With such a powerful weapon as the Soul-Devouring Blade, he could speed up his progress considerably.

"Goodbye, you can have fun with these guys."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zenji Jinsuke transformed into a blur and rushed toward the cursed spirits on the street, ignoring all the weak cursed spirits and heading straight for his target.

Anyone above level one is untouchable.

"..." Gojo Satoru.

"We really can't rely on this guy."

"You can't blame him. It's normal for people to have some special hobbies, and it's not a bad thing to like killing cursed spirits."

"Noctus spoke up from the side."

He couldn't really help Gojo Satoru; he could only deal with the cursed spirits.

Upon hearing this, Gojo Satoru sighed, flashed to the rooftop, looked at the black sorcerer in front of him, and said, "It's you again."

Last time in Shibuya, it was this elbowing master who dragged him down. I have to say, Xia Youjie has some talented people around him.
