Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 336 Returning to the Academy

A week has passed since Wang Teng returned to Yueyu Xiaozhu after the banquet.

After taking office as a judge, he was completely exposed to the public eye, which unsurprisingly caused a phenomenal sensation and heated discussion.

The youngest judge in history, the terminator of the great demon Silver Dome, the vice captain of the National Government Team, and other hot topics were discussed repeatedly.

The media naturally seized on this hot topic, trying to dig into Wang Teng's story in an attempt to grab attention, but the reports were mostly relatively positive.

The media in this world isn't that crazy, especially when it comes to the privacy of members of parliament on trial; under normal circumstances, no one would touch on such matters.

During this period, Wang Teng naturally received many congratulatory phone calls and text messages, among which Lin Yunxi was the most enthusiastic.

After all, his improved status and reputation have a direct impact on Lin Yunxi.

In addition, Mochizuki Chika and Jiang Shaoxu also sent congratulatory messages, as did many former teachers and classmates, who all contacted them.

There were even quite a few strangers who personally came to their door with gifts, trying to build relationships and offer favors, and so on.

Wang Teng was too lazy to deal with these matters and basically left them to Tang Yue to handle. He only personally received a few people.

At the pavilion by the pond, willows shrouded in mist drifted and swayed gently in the breeze, gliding slowly across the lake like smoke and illusion.

"I have already contacted and communicated with Tianlan Magic High School regarding your plan to donate 100 million yuan."

"Are you going to their welcome party?" Tang Yue asked, watching Wang Teng sitting on a stone chair, deep in thought, his gaze fixed on the lake, though he seemed to be daydreaming.

Upon hearing this, Wang Teng regained his composure and realized that there was no need for him to intervene, as his current fame and popularity were already high enough.

It's just donating some money to my alma mater; it's nothing big.

"You can handle things on my behalf; I won't go to deal with the donation."

"The level of attention I've generated during this period has already met my expectations, so unless something major happens, I'll stay quiet for a while."

"I happen to want to practice lightning magic. As for the Inquisition, you can handle things for me. If it's nothing serious, just take care of it."

Wang Teng explained his true intentions to her: his fundamental purpose was to use the trial to build sufficient prestige for himself, rather than to immerse himself in power or complicated affairs.

He has already achieved his goal, and as for the obligations he needs to fulfill, there are actually not many, and they will not waste much of his energy.

Judges are actually quite free; as long as you don't have any ulterior motives, you basically don't have much to do.

Luo Mian interfered in various matters and other departments in order to obtain resources, which is why he was always busy. Even so, he was still relatively free compared to others.

Wang Teng no longer cared about those meager resources, so naturally he had even less to do. The only things that required his intervention were major events.

Unless demons attack the city, there won't be any major problems. The same goes for international judicial assistance; unless it's a major incident, the judicial authorities are sufficient to handle it.

If things get even more complicated, the deputy presiding judge can step in, and only if all else fails will it be his turn as the judge representative to take charge.

If you join the Palace Mage Group and become a Palace Councilor, things will be different. There will be more things to do there, and the Palace will be involved in more or less major domestic and international events.

"Hmm, I understand. Also, an alien bone was extracted from the Silver Dome Lord's body and has been sent to be made into magical tools. It will take about half a year."

"As you wished, your uncle helped you exchange all the remaining materials for contribution points within the Inquisition Council, and the amount is quite substantial."

After receiving Wang Teng's instructions, Tang Yue gained the authority and confidence to handle matters. In addition, she had a good relationship with the presiding judge, so she was naturally more adept at handling things.

After the exchange, she naturally left Moon Rain Abode, as she still needed to attend some meetings and donation ceremonies on behalf of Wang Teng.

After seeing her leave in a hurry, Wang Teng didn't waste any time and continued to cultivate lightning magic, holding several lightning magic crystals in his hand.

With each breath and guided by his mental energy, a vast amount of lightning-attribute magical energy was absorbed into the lightning nebula, and the rate at which his magical energy increased was extremely fast.

The lightning-type magic crystals were also obtained by him from the Tribunal's internal resource pool. The price was quite reasonable, and with the contribution points he had accumulated so far, it was enough for him to squander.

After all, contribution points are a waste if you leave them unused.

Of course, using lightning-attribute magic crystals for cultivation is a very luxurious thing, and most mages do not have this condition.

Time flies when you're cultivating; before you know it, more than half a month has passed.

His cultivation progress was also quite good. With the ample supply of lightning-attribute magic crystals, his lightning cultivation level broke through to the advanced stage.

However, good things come in pairs. After two months of consideration, Leng Qing finally agreed that when he joined the Palace Mage Corps and became a councilor, she would respond by becoming the head of the guard.

Wang Teng was overjoyed to receive this news from Tang Yue, and then, just before Mingzhu Academy was about to have its holiday, he submitted his graduation application.

That day, accompanied by Ding Yumin, Wang Teng arrived at Mingzhu Academy and found Dean Xiao.

"You're really seizing the moment to apply for graduation!"

In the dean's office, Dean Xiao was satisfied with Wang Teng, but also somewhat helpless. Ever since his training at the academy ended, this guy seemed to have forgotten that he was still a student.

He hadn't gone back to school for a whole day! This made him wonder if the kid was unhappy with him.

"Oh, it's alright. A student as outstanding as Wang Teng should do this."

"After all, he has his own things to take care of."

Director Wei stood up with a smile and spoke well of Wang Teng, after all, the other party had recently donated a large sum of money to the university.

Based on this alone, as the dean of students, he could be very lenient with the other party and just treat this period of time as if the other party had taken a long leave.

He tried to convince himself by changing his mindset, believing that as long as he didn't give up, there would always be more solutions than problems.

"Old Wei, what you're saying puts me in an awkward position," Dean Xiao joked with a melancholy expression.

"Haha~ Dean, you're overthinking it. I've just been too busy lately, so I'm going back to school whenever I have a spare moment."

"I'll come back to visit when I have time in the future. After all, I still miss the Three-Step Tower. Dean, please don't kick me out then~" Wang Teng jokingly changed the subject.

"What are you talking about... You're welcome to come back anytime, and you can borrow the Three-Step Tower anytime you want." Dean Xiao said with a mock angry laugh.

This is the top student who helped Mingzhu Academy win the Venice World Championship, not to mention that he generously donated 2 billion to give back to his alma mater.

At this moment, his identity is that of a renowned member of the Trial Council, which also adds to the prestige of Mingzhu Academy.

He must be crazy to turn Wang Teng away. Even those powerful families who wanted to curry favor with him were struggling to find a way, and some even came to him directly.
