Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

"What do you mean? You're not going to fight me, are you?" Mo Fan paused, then hurriedly looked towards the classroom door and asked Cao Le.

However, Cao Le completely ignored him.

Mo Fan didn't really take Yu Ang seriously, but Cao Le was a different story. He had personally witnessed Cao Le easily annihilate the dark creature he summoned, a Ghost Wolf. Although Mo Fan's current strength wasn't inferior to a Ghost Wolf, it didn't mean he was significantly stronger...

Cao Le was certainly not joking with him. In this world, without any background or family wealth, he could only rely on his own hands to accomplish everything!

Therefore, the concept of being modest or yielding doesn't exist!

After that day, Cao Le did not go to school. He stayed at home in seclusion for three months. After failing three or four times in a row, he finally crossed the threshold!

Although things weren't quite what he had imagined, and although he had considered giving up at times, he ultimately persevered...

Stardust transformed into nebulae, and the area occupied by the shadow element became even more enormous.

And at the very moment of his breakthrough, he suddenly found himself back in the dark dimension where he had awakened years before...

Seeing that it was pitch black all around, Cao Le used his Dark Summoning once again...

"I didn't expect to see you again so soon, but you're still too weak..."

The familiar black shadow reappeared, and this time Cao Le clearly felt the opponent's strength compared to the last time!

Moreover, it's the feeling of being as insignificant as an ant, looking up at a towering tree...

"Damn... If you think I'm weak, then why did you call me here in the first place!" Although the other party seemed very strong, he clearly didn't have any hostility towards him.

"Heh... Don't you want my help?" the shadowy figure asked after hearing what Cao Le said.

"What I really want to know is what you are, and why you were able to summon me here?"

"You don't yet know who I am..." the shadowy figure replied indifferently.

"Then you should offer me the help you can."

Seeing that the other party didn't want to answer, Cao Le felt that it was better to be realistic. Getting some help was better than getting nothing at all!

The shadowy figure seemed surprised that Cao Le had changed his mind so quickly. After a moment of stunned silence, he said again, "Aren't you curious about my identity?"

Cao Le felt like he'd been ripped off!

Ten thousand alpacas also surged past in an instant...

Didn't you ask yourself that?

He didn't say so, did he?

Now that I've stopped asking, this bastard is asking me again if I'm not curious?

In other words, he knew perfectly well that he couldn't beat the other party, otherwise Cao Le would have taught him a lesson from society!

...

21. Tang Yue visits

The shadowy figure seemed to sense Cao Le's displeasure, but instead of saying anything, it slightly raised its hand, and a set of black energy enveloped Cao Le's hands.

The black mist stopped in my hand. It was clearly black mist, yet it seemed to exist as if it were a solid entity.

Just as Cao Le was filled with doubt, the dark figure suddenly said, "This is a soul vessel that can be transformed into any weapon by your will. However, its energy is not sufficient at the moment, but it will definitely be a great help to you. If you want it to become stronger, you will need a large amount of essence or dark power... With it, your strength will definitely be greatly enhanced."

Upon hearing this, Cao Le looked down at the misty substance in his hand, his mind drifting to a dagger...

The next moment, the black mist suddenly took shape, transforming into a dagger in almost a second.

This dagger looks no different from the kind you see on the street, but Cao Le, who is holding it, can clearly feel an extremely sinister dark power!

"right...."

Before he could ask anything, the dark figure waved his hand, and the next moment, everything went black before Cao Le's eyes. When he opened his eyes, he was back in his room.

After Cao Le stood up, he clenched his fist, and in the next moment, a dagger appeared in his hand.

It felt exactly the same as before, filled with an extremely eerie and terrifying atmosphere!

"Ding-dong!!"

"Ding-dong!!"

Before he could even examine it, he heard the doorbell ring outside.

With a thought, Cao Le immediately vanished from his hand.

When I arrived at the living room, I saw Cao Ying leading Tang Yue in...

"Brother, this pretty lady says she's your teacher." Cao Ying led Tang Yue in and asked Cao Le with a hint of inquiry.

Cao Ying had never met Tang Yue before, and Tang Yue had never visited her residence before; this was the first time.

"You're not even sure if she's someone I know, so why did you just open the door?" Cao Le said to Cao Ying with a serious expression.

Even though this is Tang Yue and she won't do anything to her, it's still good to be wary!

Moreover, if she weren't home and it wasn't Tang Yue, but someone with ulterior motives, wouldn't she be finished?

To be honest, if it were a magician, such a door wouldn't be able to stop them at all.

But then again, it's always good to be cautious!

Seeing how serious he was, Cao Ying clasped her little hands together, lowered her head, and looked aggrieved.

In general, Cao Ying never pays attention to knocks on the door. After all, Cao Le has mentioned this before, and more than once!

But Cao Le was home today, and Tang Yue claimed to be a teacher, so she went to open the door.

"Go back to your room. No TV today." Seeing her sister's expression, Cao Le didn't know what else to say.

Tang Yue watched Cao Ying leave, glared at Cao Le, and said, "Although your intentions were good, it feels like you've made your sister dislike me!"

After all, Cao Ying opened the door for her; otherwise, she wouldn't have been scolded.

"She's still young, and I worry about her like this when I'm not home," Cao Le explained, then asked with a smile, "Teacher Tang Yue, what brings you to my house today?"

Tang Yue rolled her eyes at Cao Le and said reproachfully, "You've been missing for a whole semester, and your phone was off. How could I not come and check on you?"

"Ahem... I'm currently in seclusion trying to break through to the intermediate level, and I don't really learn anything at school... Besides, didn't I already ask the principal for leave?" Cao Le replied.

Generally, students are not allowed to take leave during their high school years.

However, the principal agreed to Cao Le's request, given his rather unique situation.

After all, he had said he wanted to quietly go into seclusion to break through to the intermediate level. Principal Zhu had been teaching in Bocheng for so many years, and this was the first time he had ever heard of a student who wanted to reach the intermediate level in high school. He agreed without hesitation.

Not only did they agree to let him take leave, Principal Zhu even used some of the school's resources to get him some financial assistance!

The school undergoes a rigorous selection process, and resources are shared with all students. However, students with exceptional talent like Cao Le are clearly able to receive some preferential treatment.

"I know, it's because you haven't shown up for so long and we haven't been able to talk on the phone, so I came to check on you."

Tang Yue looked at Cao Le and said, "Becoming a mid-level mage isn't so easy. Besides, it's already quite remarkable that you've mastered the Shadow Arts to perfection in such a short time. Don't be too impatient. Haste makes waste..."

Upon hearing this, Cao Le smiled and interrupted Teacher Tang Yue, who was trying to comfort him, saying, "It is quite difficult. I failed several times, but I just managed to break through."

"Failure is normal. If it were that easy... What did you say? You broke through to the Shadow element???" Tang Yue's mouth was wide open, looking at Cao Ledao in disbelief.

"Don't be so surprised, Teacher Tang Yue. I reached perfection three months ago. It took me a full three months to break through. It's nothing special," Cao Le waved his hand and said.

"Yes...it sounds like that, but very few people can cross this level without any external help...you really are amazing..."

As a member of the Tribunal, Tang Yue had naturally seen many geniuses.

But compared to Cao Le, those so-called geniuses seem rather inferior, don't they?

“Actually, Teacher Tang Yue, you still have a chance to possess this genius,” Cao Le continued.

"Go away...who wants to have you?"

Tang Yue rolled her eyes at Cao Le before saying, "Since you're alright, I'll head back now."

"It's rare for you to come all this way, why don't you sit for a while? What's the rush?" Cao Le urged.

"Is there anything else?" Tang Yue asked, turning around.

"The way you're saying it, it's like I wouldn't keep you here if there wasn't a reason?"

“You usually only stop me when you have something to do,” Tang Yue replied.

"I'm already at the intermediate level, can you help me find a place to awaken my magic and have a second awakening?" Having been seen through by Tang Yue, Cao Le didn't hesitate and said directly.

"I almost forgot..."

Tang Yue nodded, then asked in confusion, "Bo City also has places where awakenings occur, so why are you looking for me?"

"Let's keep a low profile. Besides, I'm short on cash right now and need your help with the money."

Although Cao Le still has a balance of several hundred thousand yuan, given his negative monthly income, it won't last long.

As for the Hunter Alliance's subsidies, they completely stopped when he turned eighteen... If he were to awaken on his own, with his negative income, wouldn't he be starving while supporting his girlfriend?

"So you're treating your teacher like an ATM???"

...

22. Get a wingman.

Tang Yue didn't mind paying Cao Le money once; she just wasn't used to Cao Le's attitude of treating her like family.

“Teacher Tang Yue, if you think about it this way, you pay for me to awaken my magic once, then I’ll just owe you a favor, right? And if you ever need my help in the future, wouldn’t that be convenient?” Cao Le continued.

"What you say makes some sense, but what makes you think I'll need your help?"

"You can't be so absolute," Cao Le said with a smile.

If he doesn't have an opportunity, can't he create one?

Are we just going to wait around like this?

In that case, let alone Tang Yue, even Xin Xia might not be able to stay.

Being a man isn't easy!

Being a warm-hearted guy is even more difficult... After all, his heart is so broken, and he has to share his love with every girl, which is not an easy thing.

“Alright, this Sunday, I’ll take you somewhere to awaken your second element. But, I wonder what you want to awaken?” Tang Yue asked in return.
