Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

Hearing that she didn't have to write a report, Bai Yu was relieved, but she still couldn't help but complain, "That's right, you were too nervous yesterday, which made me worry all night and I didn't sleep well."

Bai Jingting shook his head and sighed, "You don't understand. It's hard for people of the same generation to comprehend the mark that Lin Qingyu, or rather that nameless spiritual beast, left on our hearts back then."

"Tch, you're just a coward, what a superhuman... It's not like my generation isn't without geniuses. I've seen people stronger than me, and I've even been beaten up, but I've never been so devastated as you are. You're old and still so anxious and can't stop thinking about it."

Bai Yu curled her lip, her tone disdainful.

Bai Jingting was teased by Bai Yu, but he didn't get angry. He simply shook Wang Yi's information into pieces, swept it into the trash can, and remained noncommittal.

"By the way, Wang Yi is going to have a showdown with Wu Guan next week. Should I step in and stop them?"

"Is that so? But since they are mages, what's there to stop them from sparring?" Bai Jingting didn't care.

"But Wang Yi hasn't absorbed a single spell yet!"

Bai Yu was somewhat annoyed by his lack of ambition: "If this kid had any self-respect, I wouldn't have had to meddle in other people's business. Do you think I wanted to stop him? This kid has already brought me a lot of trouble. If I stepped in to stop him, Teacher Huang from Class One would probably laugh at me even more."

"No need to stop them, just be careful not to go too far. Besides, you dare to suggest that the students go into Lingnan Sand Bridge to face the monsters directly, but you don't dare to let the students face a battle between mages? Moreover, Wang Yi is not completely ignorant of magic."

"The students who went to Lingnan Shaqiao are at least much stronger than Wang Yi."

Bai Yu's attention was immediately drawn to the Lingnan Sand Bridge, but she overlooked Bai Jingting's last words.

"By the way, that's what I came here to talk about. The Candlelight Army has replied, saying that small groups of students can be allowed to enter, but the number of people entering each time needs to be controlled to less than ten, including accompanying teachers, and advance notice is required, and it should not be too frequent."

As she spoke, Bai Yu pursed her lips and muttered to herself that he was stingy.

"That's normal. The Candlelight Army in the Lingnan Military Region is mainly responsible for guarding and exploring the Lingnan Sand Bridge. If you want the students to go in and broaden their horizons, the Candlelight Army will also bear some responsibility in case of any casualties. The Candlelight Army will naturally make a careful decision."

"I've already said that I'll take responsibility for any accidents that happen," Bai Yu said, clearly unconvinced.

"You'll take the blame? How big can a mid-level mage's shoulders be? How much responsibility can they bear? In the end, I'll be the one to take the blame for you!" Bai Jingting said angrily.

"Ultimately, you're just afraid of taking responsibility. I asked you to put in a good word with the Lingnan Military Region, but you wouldn't even listen." Bai Yu's tone was very dissatisfied. "Now, I proposed the plan, I provided the noodles, so don't worry, if anything goes wrong, you won't be held responsible!"

Snapped!

Bai Jingting slammed his fist on the table in anger and shouted, "Responsibility cannot be determined by your empty words! Besides, your small frame cannot bear the burden! If any student in the school has a problem, no matter the reason, it is my responsibility, and I can never shirk that responsibility."

"You want me to handle this? How could you even think of that! Should I go find Commander Zhang of the Candlelight Army stationed at the Lingnan Military Region, or go directly to his superior? If I handle this, is it an application or pressure?"

Bai Jingting said with some disappointment, "I thought you could understand, but I didn't expect you to think this way. What have you learned all these years at the Imperial Capital Magic University? I think it's because Bai Jingyuan and Bai Sen spoiled you too much that you've become so foolish!"

After being scolded by Bai Jingting, Bai Yu felt a little wronged, and tears welled up in her eyes, but she still managed to hold them back.

Seeing this, Bai Jingting's voice finally softened a bit: "I know you want to give the children better resources, a higher starting point, and a broader perspective, but this is not the capital or Shanghai after all."

Upon hearing Bai Jingting's words, Bai Yu's pent-up grievances seemed to burst forth: "At the Imperial Capital Magic University, many people looked down on me, saying I was from a small place, and even calling me a stinky outsider."

I study hard, train diligently, and then fight back desperately, but there are always some people I can't beat.

I believe my talent is no less than theirs, and my effort is no less than theirs, but my strength is just not as good.

They are exposed to magical theories from a young age, and upon awakening at the age of sixteen, they immediately absorb magic crystals, hone their magic, and, under the protection of specialists, enter various spatial passages for training.

Those with talent can continue their studies at prestigious universities, freely consuming the magic power within the magic crystals during daily cultivation, and possessing all sorts of precious magic at will.

Even those with average or no talent can study theory in school and still get good job placements after graduation.

In our area, children can only have the opportunity to attend a magic high school if they awaken their powers, and even then, they have to pass the entrance exam.

Aside from the magic crystals occasionally allocated by the school, where could we afford such precious magic crystals? Without high-grade magic, no matter how hard we try or how talented we are, how could our strength possibly compare to others!

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, Bai Jingting sighed inwardly, but said aloud, "Resources are always limited, so it's impossible to be perfect in every aspect. Besides, those people's advantages are the result of generations of hard work."

Just like you, you became a homeroom teacher at Lanling Magic High School right after graduation.

"I'm different. I'm a mid-level mage. My strength is worthy of my current position. I'm no worse than any homeroom teacher. Even if I weren't in Lanling, I could teach at other magic high schools."

Bai Yu wiped his nose and continued, "Strive? Every soldier stationed in the Demon Abyss is risking their lives. And their children don't necessarily get to enjoy that kind of treatment."

Wang Yi's parents both died in battle, leaving behind a place in Liyuan. This only allowed Wang Yi to receive a special admission spot at a magic high school, and that was contingent on Wang Yi successfully awakening his powers.

Since resources need to be earned, then I'll let my students earn them. I'm not afraid to take responsibility, nor am I afraid of owing favors to the Candlelight Army. If you're afraid of taking responsibility, you can completely reject my proposal.

Looking at Bai Yu's young yet stubborn face, Bai Jingting finally sighed: "If I didn't agree, I wouldn't have let you bring up this proposal in the meeting at all."

"Now that you've secured the spot yourself, you can make the arrangements yourself. But I need to tell you two things," Bai Jingting said solemnly.

"First, students and their parents or guardians must fully understand the details of the risks involved before entering Lingnan Shaqiao, and do so knowingly and voluntarily."

Second, student safety must always be the top priority. Injuries and disabilities are acceptable, but death is not.

Even if you can't come back, all the students have to come back!

"Yes, Principal!" Bai Yu stood tall and accepted the order without hesitation.

"Go back and prepare well."

Bai Jingting waved his hand, and Bai Yu turned and left the office.

Watching Bai Yu's disappearing figure, Bai Jingting sighed again, then took out his phone and opened an app.

After verifying his password, fingerprint, and facial recognition, Bai Jingting opened the search box and typed in the text while muttering to himself.

"Lingnan Shaqiao..."
