Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

Upon hearing this, the homeroom teacher was completely dumbfounded!

Principal Zhu's reaction to the initial awakening of the Shadow element, especially with such powerful dark energy, is really a bit excessive.

Shouldn't they be just as excited as I am?

Upon seeing this, the students' disbelief vanished instantly.

It seems like Cao Le's awakened magic ability is really no big deal...

After all, they weren't homeroom teachers anymore; they were already novice mages, capable of sensing the strength of their opponents.

As for Cao Le himself, although he felt a little annoyed that Principal Zhu didn't recognize his worth, he was still quite satisfied.

At least, I won't be getting too much attention anymore.

Someone like him, without power or background, might not necessarily refuse if he were chosen as a retainer by some minor power.

After all, if I refuse... the road ahead seems long and fraught with danger!

A genius who doesn't grow up is just trash...

This brat Mo Fan, after achieving some success, lost all sense of self-importance and dared to provoke Mu Zhuoyun, the local tyrant of Bo City...

The homeroom teacher, no longer excited, glanced at Cao Le before saying, "Alright, next one..."

"Next up, Ice type..."

"Next up, water-based..."

"Next up, Earth element..."

"Next up, a wind-type..."

"..."

"Last one, Mo Fan!" As soon as the homeroom teacher spoke, everyone turned to look.

There was no way around it; everyone wasn't familiar with each other yet, but they had heard the name "Mo Fan" many times from that fat guy named Zhao Kunsan.

His father sold him a house and used connections to get him into Tianlan Magic High School.

His magical theory is a complete zero...

In short, it's utterly pathetic and utterly weak...

After returning to his seat, Cao Le completely ignored the group's chatter.

Compared to Mo Fan's awakening, he was even more curious... curious as to why his shadow stardust had lost its color and become nothingness?

Then, he closed his eyes again and entered his own mental world.

In the pitch-black mental world, the shadow-type stardust seemed to be non-existent, but it would occasionally lose its luster, making him even more confused.

But no matter how he looked at it, he just couldn't figure out any information...

At the same time, just as Mo Fan was about to awaken his magic, cries of lightning awakening came from outside...

If Mo Fan was born with a halo, then Xu Zhaoting was more of a natural talent. Not only did he awaken the lightning element, but he also broke through to the intermediate level with the school's limited resources and without any external help, which was already quite remarkable.

After all, far too many people, even after awakening their magic, might only become novice mages.

As for the mid-level and high-level, without a powerful force providing resources, the chances of soaring to great heights are virtually nonexistent...

When Cao Le looked up, sure enough, there was no one there except Mo Fan. The lightning-like light dissipated, and flames suddenly ignited...

4. Cao Ying

Immediately afterwards, Cao Le saw Mo Fan initially appear slightly confused, but then completely fall into a frenzied state of joy!

Looking at this scoundrel's arrogant face, it really makes you want to slap him!

...

Afterwards, the homeroom teacher and the students all came back.

When they saw the flames emanating from Mo Fan's Awakening Stone, they were all shocked once again!

Indeed, whether a theory is good or not is actually not important...

What matters most is one's own destiny!

Fire type... Fire type!!!

This is truly an incredibly enviable magic system!

Mo Fan looked like a winner in life, and when he came down, he deliberately provoked Mu Bai.

Although Mu Bai showed no outward emotion, his tightly clenched fists betrayed that he was definitely not feeling well inside...

Xue Musheng's attitude towards Mo Fan also changed significantly. After all, he was originally afraid that Mo Fan's awakening would fail, even though it had nothing to do with him. But if word got out, the tone of the conversation would change, and it would affect him.

Now it's different; he no longer has to worry about these things.

Once the two fire-type students in the class, along with Cao Le, demonstrate their strength, he too will have the opportunity for a promotion and a raise!

After the magic ended, it was time for the first class of the day.

In the first class, homeroom teacher Xue Musheng gave all the magic students an important lesson: the release of magic!

The release of magic only involves three very simple steps.

First, meditation.

Second, control.

Third, release!

Meditation, as the name suggests, is to concentrate fully on thinking.

When a person closes their eyes, their mind is actually constantly conjuring up various images. But if you don't think about anything and aren't disturbed, your mind is completely empty! After a magician awakens, stardust of the corresponding element will appear in this empty world of his.

In other words, now, as long as you close your eyes and completely stop thinking about anything, allowing your mind to reach a state of emptiness like a black universe, stardust will appear in this empty mind.

Beside the stardust, seven stars were orbiting irregularly...

And if these stars can move in a regular pattern, then they are under control.

As for the final release, it requires seven stars to be linked together to trace the star trail, so that the magic can take shape.

After the first lesson, the class teacher assigned everyone a long-term homework assignment: to meditate until they were completely exhausted every day.

While being a mage is a prestigious profession, it's also an extremely tiring and demanding one. Without hard work, even exceptional talent will be wasted...

After school, Cao Le prepared to go home.

He didn't choose to stay at school, after all, he had a younger sister at home who needed his care.

Perhaps this is the transmigrator's fault. His parents were both hunter mages who died because of a bounty, leaving behind him, who was eight years old at the time, and his newborn sister.

Fortunately, the Hunter Alliance has provided subsidies over the years, otherwise his sister would have starved to death.

To be honest, regardless of whether this little sister suddenly appeared or not, just the fact that I raised her from infancy is like raising a daughter for her.

He truly acted as both a brother and a mother figure...

Just as Cao Le left the classroom and before he even left the teaching building, he was called to Principal Zhu's office.

Cao Le was somewhat confused, but since he was going to be living off them for at least three more years, he couldn't very well refuse.

"Principal, did you need something from me?" Cao Le asked directly upon arrival.

"Your shadow magic is extraordinary. The reason I didn't praise you in your class before was for your own good. I hope you understand that I just wanted you to keep a low profile, but don't be discouraged..." Principal Zhu was naturally a discerning person, but he also knew that a genius who hadn't grown up couldn't be called a genius.

Cao Le finally understood what this guy meant. But with so many people in the class, and not all of them being idiots, how could such a commotion go unnoticed?

However, at least the principal meant well.

"Oh, okay, thank you, Principal," Cao Le replied.

“You have good talent, but even the best talent requires hard work. I know a bit about your situation. If you have any difficulties, just tell me. The school can't offer much help, but it can at least help you make ends meet,” Principal Zhu added.

"Okay, thank you, Principal."

After giving a few more brief instructions, Principal Zhu let Cao Le leave.

The school provides a considerable amount of resources for its students. However, when shared among so many students, the amount becomes pitifully small.

Therefore, requesting resources from the school is simply unrealistic.

It's like he's just letting it go in one ear and out the other...

After leaving the school, it was less than a hundred meters to my rented apartment.

Upon opening the door, instead of a tidy bedroom, I found my little darling sprawled on the sofa, looking like she was starving.

Seemingly hearing the door open, Cao Ying turned around and complained, "Brother~ you're several minutes later than usual today. Are you trying to starve your pretty and cute little sister?"

She truly embodies the essence of narcissism that I've possessed since childhood; it seems like the younger generation is surpassing the older one...

"The principal talked to me today. Besides, didn't we prepare milk and snacks for you in the refrigerator?"

"But...didn't you say I shouldn't eat too much?" Cao Ying said, sounding aggrieved.

Those two big eyes were almost filled with tears, and she looked so aggrieved that she wanted to cry.

Cao Le paused, then continued, "There are four seasons in a year, but you only experience one?"

As he spoke, he went to the refrigerator, intending to get her some food first.

but....

The moment the refrigerator was opened, Cao Le was stunned!

I drank the milk according to the recommended amount, not a drop more, but how come there wasn't a single snack left?!

Cao Le turned around stiffly, but seeing Cao Ying looking pitiful as if she were starving, he sighed slightly and said, "Alright, stop pretending. I just think that eating too many snacks is bad, but as long as I don't get hungry, that's fine."

"whee...."

Upon hearing this, Cao Ying instantly stopped looking like she was about to starve to death, and got up to cling to Cao Le, saying, "I knew my brother was the best~"

"you...."

Cao Le was truly exasperated by how quickly this little girl could change her attitude!

"Brother, did you awaken your magic today? I heard from the neighbor's older sister that once you become a magician, you'll be incredibly powerful!" Cao Ying looked at Cao Le and then asked.
