Starting with magical girls, I'll reign supreme for eternity.

That was the forest area near Jiangming City, and the high wall they were trapped in was actually a huge pit, with purple lightning and charred blackness flowing around it. Jiangming City, which was submerged thousands of meters underground in the pit, was not exposed to sunlight. The awakened people began to shout, and their voices seemed to come from the abyss.

The two were so shocked that they couldn't move for a long time, and then they looked at each other in bewilderment.

"There's a whole world beyond these high walls. Are we really Grand Tutor Li? Was this the Sect Master's doing?"

"Does it mean that once it's over the high walls, it'll be a complete failure? If it's taken over ten thousand years later, then it really will be a complete failure..."

"It might not be ten thousand years! Maybe it was Teacher Bai Mei who asked the Sect Master to intervene!"

Shui Ling immediately made a judgment, "Quickly check if the teacher has replied to our message!"

The two of them simultaneously took out their phones and glanced at them.

All are unread.

The two looked at each other and both took a deep breath.

This means that the teacher had no idea that the two of them had sealed themselves away—and then somehow the sect leader found out and came to their aid, not only helping to break the seal but also dealing with the attacking monsters...

Although it's unclear where this heavenly lightning came from, or why it bears some resemblance to the sect leader's purple magic power.

But for a moment, both of them felt even more admiration and longing for the sect leader who they could never see.

"We must work hard to get into the inner sect and see what the sect leader is really like!"

……

Before dawn, reports from various places were flying around everywhere.

All sorts of phones kept ringing, and magical girls were flying around everywhere.

Coco, who was next to Yinlian, naturally saw the damage report as well.

The direct property damage caused by the lightning is not high; in most cases, buildings will not be destroyed by the purple magical lightning.

All the lightning bolts are only targeted at the magical girl; even if she hides inside a building, the lightning will still pass through the building and strike the magical girl directly.

The only exception is the General Administration.

The person involved, Iris, insisted that the Bureau's Purple Lightning would definitely destroy the building, so although she accidentally blew up half of the Bureau, she essentially protected the Bureau.

In the end, Jin Cha accepted this explanation and continued to promote Iris as a hero protecting the Bureau.

The exact number of magical girls attacked has not yet been fully tallied, but more than one hundred magical girls have been confirmed to have been struck by lightning.

The good news is that there were no casualties, and all the lightning strikes ended after the magical girl deactivated her transformation.

Even though Iris's mental imagery field exploded, the impact was not significant; she only tripped and fell, without any other injuries.

Coco breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, others might not be able to tell the difference between the purple lightning and the teacher, but after being with her for so long, how could she not be able to tell the difference?

No one but Shion-sensei could have done this, directly spanning three regions and targeting so many magical girls.

Not only did they avoid buildings, but they also stopped precisely after the magical girl reverted to her original form...

As for the reason for doing so.

"After being struck by lightning and surviving, a purple magic suddenly appeared in the seed. I can freely convert my magic into purple magic attributes, and I feel that I have gained a deeper understanding and control over the changes in the nature of magic..."

That's right, so magical girls who get struck by lightning all have a purple magic power.

Furthermore, because of this extra magic, everyone gained control over both types of magic, and could even change the attribute of their own magic once.

This is why Teacher Shion is about to unleash heavenly lightning.

Coco had also noticed this, because she felt her control over magic had improved further, and she could even change the nature of her pure magic.

This is all due to the effects of Shion-sensei's lightning strike.

However, she was a little unsure whether it was just her or everyone else who had it. After confirming that everyone who had successfully passed the tribulation had it, Coco breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew that Ms. Shion would never do anything pointless! Every action she took was carefully considered, and she always had her reasons!

However, correspondingly, the magical girls who successfully survived the tribulation all experienced a qualitative improvement.

Those who fail also face significant punishment.

For example, the silver lotus.

As the team leader, she received the most phone calls after the Heavenly Tribulation ended. She handled all the communications and statistics from the General Administration, as well as the orders from the North Sea Disaster Management Bureau.

After flying around the city for a long time and finishing all the business, he came back and hugged Coco with a long face.

"Coco, I finally reached the mid-stage of Blooming Glory, but my magic power has dropped back to the early stage..."

Yinlian looked aggrieved: "I called Dandelion, and Dandelion said I'm now a budding seedling."

Coco was stunned for a moment: "What does 'seedling' mean?"

"A magical girl who hasn't passed through the initial stage of the Blooming Realm can't be considered a true early-stage Blooming Realm magical girl. She may have the magical power of the Blooming Realm, but she lacks its mysteries, such as the absence of supernatural abilities. She can only be called a Blooming Realm seedling, and can only bully peak-stage seedlings."

Yinlian said angrily, "She said that since I didn't pass the test, the heavenly lightning compressed my magic power and made me level up all over again. Now I can only be a potential magical girl, Ruri. She said such awful things, ugh..."

That's right, so all the magical girls who failed their tribulation dropped in level.

While they won't necessarily fall back to the initial stage of Blooming Magical Girls, most of the Blooming Magical Girls will experience a significant increase in their total magical power once they enter this realm, definitely on par with the initial stage of Blooming Magical Girls.

As a result, once the heavenly lightning struck, the demonic power instantly shrank, dropping back to a level even less than that of the first stage of the Flourishing Bloom, and not much different from that of the peak of the New Seedling.

Yinlian was one of the unlucky ones.

Now he lies on Coco, heartbroken.

"Your teacher is really mean, Coco."

Coco patted her head: "Teacher is telling you to build a solid foundation. Don't aim too high and only improve your level. If your foundation isn't solid, your strength won't be enough. Teacher is doing this for your own good."

"You're just taking Shion's side anyway!"

"No, I didn't! I'm telling the truth!"

Yinlian threw a tantrum like a child: "I don't care, I don't care! My cultivation level has dropped, you have to compensate me!"

"What does this have to do with me?"

"You're the one who caused Ziyuan's mess; the responsibility is shared between master and apprentice!"

"Heh, then go find the police."

Yinlian bit Keke's arm angrily, and Keke, not to be outdone, pinched her cheeks in return.

The two girls bickered and played as they went back to their room. Yinlian finally gave in and pleaded, "Come train with me tomorrow, Coco. I don't want my cultivation level to drop so drastically. I don't want to be some kind of seedling..."

"No, I want to read comics."

"I'll treat you to three creamy ice creams, one for breakfast, one for lunch, and one for dinner!"

"I'll think about it..."

The white fox watched quietly as the two girls entered the house. Coco and Silver Lotus greeted her and asked if she was tired and if she wanted to rest.

However, the white fox simply shook her head, politely thanked the two, and then continued sitting on the sofa reading her novel.

I would occasionally look up at the window.

Even now, several hours have passed since the heavenly lightning struck.

That intense magic could still be clearly sensed, permeating the entire space—no, perhaps the entire world.

They were all under the influence of that magic.

The white fox knew better than anyone what it was and where it came from.

Aster.

Her goal was to become a well-known figure in the old world.

The knuckles of her fingers gripping the phone tightened slightly, turning a little white, but White Fox quickly relaxed.

Because online sources say that "white knuckles" is a term used by machines.

Similarly, there's the act of throwing a pebble into a lake, speaking with certainty, calmness, or coldness—a sound known as the string of reason.

These are all machine-generated terms, which we humans should avoid.

After reading more than half of the book and mastering some techniques, my reading speed increased and my comprehension ability was further enhanced.

Even at the suggestion of her readers, she took the time to read other books and found some enjoyment in some of them.

Or rather, resonance.

They had already calmed down a bit, but when the earth-shattering purple lightning roared...

This made her somewhat uneasy.

Coco and Yinlian came over to ask her if she was hungry and wanted something to eat. After she refused, the two of them prepared breakfast and left a portion for her, placing it on the table.

"If you're hungry, you can eat."

"Thank you."

The two girls were struck by lightning last night, and after having breakfast this morning, they went back to their bedroom to catch up on sleep.

The white fox stared at her phone, that page having remained untouched for a long time.

Every time she read a section, she would forget what she was reading and had to start over. This process repeated itself, and she had already read this chapter several times.

Why not turn the page?

He instinctively pulled out the knife, but the next second his wrist was firmly pressed down, and he couldn't move at all.

Looking up, she saw the boy who had left the house the night before staring at her indifferently.

She looked down again, thinking she was being gripped tightly on the wrist, but in reality, the other person had only pressed down on one finger.

When I gently placed my hand on her wrist, I felt as if I were being crushed by a mountain, to the point that I couldn't lift my entire arm.

"I was thinking about you, sir."

Jiang Si let go of Bai Hu's hand and picked up the breakfast her younger sister had made for her. "Who gave you permission to think like that?"

The white fox lowered its head and said, "I'm sorry."

Ignoring her, Jiang Si glanced at the contents of her phone while eating breakfast.

It's already halfway done, so the efficiency is pretty good.
