Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 18 Probationary Trial

"Um...aren't you coming home with me?"

Wang Teng scratched his face innocently, feeling quite content and reluctant to leave. Ever since he gained confidence, he had started to let loose a bit.

Every time I see Tang Yue, I think about teasing her and seeing her stunned, embarrassed, and angry expression.

It seems he needs to tone it down a bit. He can act, but he can't be too natural in his performance, or it will make him seem like he has no acting skills.

"go home?"

"Go back to which home?"

"What are you thinking about? I called you over to tell you that I have submitted your application materials for joining the trial committee."

"Starting today, you're a trainee judge under my supervision, so don't cause any trouble."

Tang Yue had begun to get used to this guy's wicked tastes. Although there was no desire in his eyes, it seemed that he just wanted to tease her and see her make a fool of herself.

"Oh, okay, I got it."

"Want to come over for a drink?"

"No, I'm too busy!"

Wang Teng watched Tang Yue leave in her high heels, and a moment later she got into a red sports car, which roared off and sped away.

"Maybe I should buy one when I have time?" Wang Teng thought to himself, but then he remembered that he would be moving to Shanghai in just over two years.

"No, no, no~ Never mind, it probably won't be needed for long anyway."

"We'll see if we can sell the house too. If the chaos ends and the house is taken back by the military, we'll lose a lot of money."

"In that case, I might have all the intermediate-level cultivation resources, and once I leave, it will be difficult for me to return to this small place."

Wang Teng walked towards the electric scooter not far away, his thoughts already turning to the future. As for what Tang Yue had told him, he would deal with it later.

He's only been in high school for less than a year, let alone graduating from university; he has a long way to go.

It is estimated that he will be the trainee judge with the longest probationary period.

……

As the end of the semester approaches, the atmosphere in the class is becoming increasingly somber. After all, while people joke around normally, the thought of being reassigned to different classes fills everyone with a sense of dread.

Everyone is afraid of not getting into the top class, which means losing a free resource and falling even further behind.

So, amidst this oppressive atmosphere, everyone was cultivating with all their might, and it was common to see people looking haggard in the morning due to excessive cultivation.

Some even seem mentally unstable, while others who didn't try at the beginning are now so depressed that they've simply given up.

A few days after the conversation, Zhang Jianguo revealed that Wang Teng was already controlling the seventh star, which immediately caused a sensation in the class.

As one of the vanguard members, Xu Zhaoting, under the pressure of Wang Teng, developed the ability to meditate even in the classroom.

At first, he was able to gloat and even feel somewhat smug, but this news shattered his illusions.

Wang Teng's cultivation speed was too fast, making him feel like there was a ghost chasing him from behind, and he felt a great sense of urgency.

It even made him wonder when Wang Teng would surpass him and become the number one in Class 7. The thought of this possibility made him restless.

The title of number one has been attached to him for a long time, and his usual confidence depends on this title. He would feel even more uncomfortable if he lost it.

As the homeroom teacher of Class 7, I was extremely satisfied to see this motivating effect. The previously relaxed atmosphere was completely swept away, and everyone was working hard to improve.

This greatly increased his chances of becoming the head teacher of the top class.

Wang Teng naturally ignored all of this; he wasn't Mo Fan, who liked to unleash his full power every day.

He does this every day, and he'll probably continue doing so in the future, since it's already become a habit.

The atmosphere in the class had absolutely no effect on him.

Oh wait, there's a benefit to it too. These guys' attention is more scattered, and thanks to this, his mental strength is growing at almost twice the speed.

This is truly a cause for celebration; everyone has a bright future ahead of them.

Despite the tense atmosphere, the final exams finally arrived.

In the morning, Lao Zhang arrived unexpectedly early and prepared his speech on the podium.

"Everyone has been working very hard in their training lately, and I've seen it all. You're all doing a great job."

Looking at the group of people below, many had somewhat unfocused eyes, while others had bright eyes but still wore smiles.

"However, the magic test is in a week, and I still want to emphasize its importance."

"This will involve class reorganization, especially the creation of an elite class, where most of the resources will be concentrated."

"Stardust artifacts, you should all know about them by now. Only those who enter the elite class can have the opportunity to use them."

"Then let me briefly explain the test: one is the increase of magical energy, and the other is the release of magical skills."

"The former tests whether you have been working hard to meditate and improve your magical power, while the latter tests your control over the stars. The two are scored separately, and then the scores are combined to give the final result."

"This result will be the sole reference for class placement, ranking students from the best down to the last 100."

"This is roughly the selection process for the elite class members, so everyone should take a good rest this remaining week."

"Stop overdoing meditation and training. You must take care of your mental well-being, otherwise you may not be able to demonstrate your true strength, which would be a real pity."

Zhang Jianguo very skillfully stopped the students' cultivation. In previous years, unexpected things would have happened, so he gave them a week as a buffer, which made things more relaxed.

Wang Teng sat in the back, squinting his eyes. He had also made great progress during this period. After nearly half a year of peaceful development, his mental strength finally broke through and reached the fourth realm.

The area covered by the magical talent's spirit devouring has expanded to a radius of 100 meters around him, which is another huge leap.

What surprised him most was the powerful enhancement of his mental energy to the spatial system. Even he was pleasantly surprised because he could only successfully complete the Void Stealth after reaching the fourth realm.

He had been stuck in the surface space because his mental strength was insufficient. Of course, he had also gained something from this experience; he had become much more proficient in controlling space.

As the core of cultivation, the research of demonic arts has always been prioritized. After completing the Void Stealth technique, the second demonic art, the Void Myriad Treasures, was put on the agenda.

As a space-type demon, it would be a true disgrace not to have an independent personal space. This demonic technique creates such a stable space within the body.

Besides its storage function, its core capability is the ability to retrieve items from the void within the area covered by the Void Treasury.

For example, if the radius of the Void Treasury is 100 meters, then any item within that 100-meter range, as long as it is not strongly bound, can be directly and quickly captured by this demonic technique.

The development of this sorcery was also for the purpose of gathering resources in the land of demons, since the land of demons is full of resources.

However, there are many demons, and it's unrealistic for him to fight them all by himself. But with this demon magic, he can avoid a lot of trouble.
