Chapter Eighteen: Academic Career (Part Two)

  It's been almost a month since I reached the level of a second-class magician.

  A strong wind is blowing inside a first-grade classroom.

  The earth-based course Lin Lei only occasionally goes once a month, while the wind-based course Lin Lei attends every class, and today Lin Lei sat in his usual old position.

  "Lin Lei, you're here." Lin Lei had just sat down when a very cute girl sat down beside him.

  Lin Lei took a glance at the girl and smiled, saying: "Diliya, you're quite early. There's still a while before class starts." Sitting with this beautiful girl was indeed a pleasant thing, and Lin Lei wouldn't refuse.

  Dellia is no ordinary person.

  Her brother, Dixie, is now the number one freshman at Ernst Academy, known as a magical genius who appears only once in a hundred years. He is also a dual-system magician with super-affinity elements and has spiritual power that is 68 times that of his peers.

  Delia, Dixie's sister, wasn't much different either.

  "I knew you'd come early." Delia's eyes narrowed as she smiled.

  The two of them were chatting, and before they knew it, class had already started. Professor Trei was passionately lecturing at the front, while Lin Lei listened intently below. Meanwhile, Delia couldn't help but sneak glances at Lin Lei every now and then.

  "Alright, today's lesson is over, but before we dismiss, I have something to say to everyone." said Teacher Trei with a smile.

  The students below suddenly started discussing in low voices.

  "Old students should all know that our Ernst Academy has a rule, every year's last one or two months will hold the 'grade competition'. Every year's 'grade competition' is also the most lively time for our entire academy, and winning in the grade competition will also make it easier to be evaluated as an excellent student at graduation. At graduation, I estimate that all four empires will invite you with enthusiasm." Teacher Tre said with a smile.

  The students below immediately became excited.

  At Ernst Institute, geniuses gather. And all geniuses have a bad habit, it's hard for them to obey others!

  So every year's grade competition has become an opportunity for geniuses to make a name for themselves. Almost 90% of students will pay attention to this grade competition, and those with some strength will go to participate.

  "Our school's Wind Style will also be participating in the battle, those who are willing to sign up, please let me know." Teacher Trei said with a smile, but his eyes glanced at Lin Lei.

  "Teacher, I'm willing." Many students below immediately started signing up excitedly.

  "Good." Terry immediately took out paper and a quill pen to start recording, but after he had recorded more than a dozen students, he found that Lin Lei and Delilah were chatting below, without any intention of coming up to register.

  Terry walked away.

  Lin Lei involuntarily looked up and immediately respectfully shouted: "Teacher Trei." Dilia beside him also saluted respectfully.

  Teacher Tui smiled and nodded, "Lin Lei, this grade competition is a great opportunity for training. I believe almost all the elites of the first year will participate. Why don't you sign up? Such an opportunity is hard to come by."

  "I'm not interested." Lin Lei said directly.

  Teacher Treya was taken aback.

  "Lin Lei, you don't know that if we win this grade's competition, there are some rewards." Teacher Trei tempted again.

  "A reward?" Lin Lei was in urgent need of money.

  The economic situation in my own family is not very good. If I can get some money myself, it's no big deal to participate in this grade competition.

  "You're right, you should know that ordinary students usually live in ordinary dormitories, like our single-door and single-yard ones. And the top three of each grade's competition are eligible to live in a two-story apartment for a year. That's a symbol of status, and the apartments are also much more comfortable."

  Lin Lei suddenly realized.

  The entire residential area has few two-story small apartment buildings, and most of them are inhabited by powerful magicians such as 7th-level and 8th-level. Now it seems that originally, the top three students in each of the six grades have the qualification to live here for a year.

  Accommodation conditions?

  Lin Lei didn't care about this at all.

  "I won't participate." Lin Lei said as usual.

  Teacher Treya was getting anxious, actually he Treya is also a sixth-grade student, if he can make his students become the top three, not only will he get rewards, but it's also very face-saving. Young people all care about saving face.

  Teacher Trei approached Lin Lei and said in a low voice: "Lin Lei, are you worried about your strength being exposed? I know that you have already reached the level of a second-level magician."

  Lin Lei heard this and couldn't help but look up at Teacher Trei in surprise.

  How did Teacher Trei know his own strength? After all, it's hard to judge a person's strength just by looking at their appearance.

  Teacher Tui saw Lin Lei's expression and thought he had been seen through, so he smiled and said: "Lin Lei, if you have the ability, don't hide it. Even if you don't participate in the competition and intentionally hide your strength, be careful that I will also reveal your secret."

  "Whatever, I'm not going anyway."

  Lin Lei stood up carelessly and bowed respectfully: "Goodbye, teacher."

  Then, disregarding Teacher Trei's astonished expression, she floated away calmly.

  "Hey, this kid." Teacher Trei couldn't help but burst out laughing, while Dilia beside him was still covering her mouth and giggling.

  ******

  The aerobics class ended and it was already past six in the evening, the sky was almost dark. Lin Lei rushed to his dormitory, the four brothers of dormitory 1987 had a very good relationship, usually they would go out for dinner together at night.

  "Lin Lei, you're back!" A curly-haired youth in dormitory 1986 enthusiastically greeted Lin Lei.

  "Harry, have you had dinner?" Lin Lei also responded with a smile.

  Lin Lei's relationship with the disciples of several surrounding courtyards was still pretty good. Harry smiled and nodded, "Of course you've eaten, the three brothers in your courtyard are waiting for you."

  "Lin Lei is back, let's go, everyone eat." Yale's voice sounded.

  It was clear that Yale had heard Lin Lei's voice in the courtyard, and Yale, Leno, and George all came over to greet him. The four brothers then headed towards the dining hall together. Inside Ernst College, there were also luxurious hotels, so Yale didn't go to the large hotel much anymore after being persuaded by Lin Lei and George.

  Small restaurant, dishes are very affordable, and eating is also comfortable.

  They ordered some dishes and the four brothers started discussing again.

  For various activities within the college, Lin Lei mostly heard from his three brothers, otherwise Lin Lei, who was usually cultivating in the back mountain of the college, would be completely unaware of the internal news.

  "Hey, there's just one more month left and the first year will be over. In the last one or two months of every year, the entire college holds a grade-level tournament. The top three students from each grade can live in those two-story small building apartments for a year." Yale said.

  "Year-end tournament?" Lin Lei burst out laughing, having just received the news in class.

  "Haha, I'm definitely going to attend." Reno said confidently.

  Yale snorted, "You kid became a first-rate magician on the way from Aubrey Empire to Ernst Academy. Now, I estimate you're not far from becoming a second-rate magician either. This is really too unfair."

  Renault spent a year traveling from home to college.

  On this journey in the horse-drawn carriage, Reno learned magic under the guidance of Guan Jia and became a first-class magician within that year.

  George smiled and looked at Lin Lei: "Hey, don't forget that Lin Lei was also a first-class magician when he entered school. He has been practicing so crazily, and he is a dual-system magician. I think his strength should be the strongest in our dormitory."

  Lin Lei smiled and said: "George, don't flatter me."

  "Lin Lei, have you reached level 2 magician now? Be honest!" George stared at Lin Lei.

  "How is that possible? From a beginner to a first-class magician, our talent may be enough for a year, but from first-class to second-class magician, at least two years." Raynor said with a wrinkled nose.

  "This isn't necessarily true, I also think Lin Lei is being mysterious." Yale looked at Lin Lei, "Lin Lei, have you reached the second level of magic?"

  Lin Lei nodded casually.

  It's strange that I've become a second-level magician. I was already a first-level magician before the magic test, and it's been a year since then. If I'm still not a second-level magician by now, my hard work would be in vain.

  "Did you really reach it?" Yale, Reno and George stared at each other in shock, they didn't think it was true.

  "Go participate in the grade competition, Lin Lei, you must go, go and crush them, give our dormitory 1987 a reputation." Yale said immediately.

  At this time, the waiter also brought up the dishes.

  "Eating, eating, I'm not interested in the grade competition at all." Lin Lei was too lazy to compete with those weaklings. That kind of college arena battle was simply a show-off!

  The three men from Yale looked at each other.

  They also knew that Lin Lei's cultivation was very bitter, although there were geniuses in the first grade who had superior elemental affinity and spiritual power, but when it came to bitterness, they couldn't compare to Lin Lei. Plus, Lin Lei was a dual-system... so they also thought in their hearts that Lin Lei was probably the strongest one in the first grade.

  "It's a pity if you don't participate, this time the grade competition will let others show off again." Yale pouted, "It's also that my strength is not enough, if I had Lin Lei's strength, I would have gone to show off earlier and hooked up with a few beauties."

  Lin Lei smiled: "Alright, let's eat, stop thinking nonsense."

  For the grade competition, Lin Lei didn't care at all. However, the vast majority of people in the academy were still very enthusiastic about the grade war, not just students, but also some magicians from Ernst Academy who paid close attention to this event.
