It's weird to apply for Witch Academy as a boy

Now Tan Han seems to see things more clearly than I do. If we become nominal academic friends, then she can learn from me how to use spell books flexibly.

If she can't become friends with me, she won't have any way to learn that ability, and her strongest method can be replaced by the other party, without even having to be replaced.

Of course she still remembered the match in the morning. The Fire Elf... That was a spell book with a consumption of 100 points. If they were to fight, she might even be replaced without any harm.

How does this make her not nervous?

This is too urgent! It even reminded her of the time when she first came into contact with the Witch Meditation Method.

She just felt that she was getting further and further away from the other person, and even felt that what the other person meant when he said "We are not from the same world"!

She was the one left behind!

"Okay then, then, do you go first or do I go first?" I asked casually. Even now, I didn't know the names of the remaining players on the field. If you asked me to guess, I would naturally guess Tan Han.

"Of course you go first."

"Then I guess you, Tan Han."

"Then it's my turn. I guess it's you, Yang Yuehan."

"Haha, is it fun to play like this?" I laughed after hearing what Tan Han said. It was really... not an unexpected result.

"Of course it's boring, but since our first game, you can actually guess what will happen in the subsequent games, right? There are secret operations. It seems that we have a lot of options, but if there really is a bye, the probability is still between the two of us. But I made it clear in advance that I didn't ask in advance, and I don't know what the result will be, so the bet is fair." Of course, she didn't mention her own ability, that was her own ability, so it didn't count as cheating.

"Since you said so, I'll just reluctantly believe it." I shook my head and said with a smile, "Then I'll take your good words and rest this afternoon."

"It's not certain yet who will win or lose. Are you leaving?" Tan Han asked as she watched me stand up.

"Well, after all, the goal has been achieved, so I'll take a break for half a day."

"Don't you want to continue chatting? I have many other topics I want to talk about, such as the elf we talked about earlier."

"So you can be so gossipy?" But I didn't sit back. After all, I really wanted to leave, but I didn't mind talking about this topic before leaving.

"Of course, who doesn't like gossip? I heard from the senior sister over there that the elf came directly to find you. Do you know him?"

"She's my ex-girlfriend." I said casually.

But I said this not without thinking about the consequences. On the one hand, it was to deal with the worst outcome that Yao Beijuan might bring to me, and let me adapt in advance.

Another thing is that it adds some weight to the possibility of Tan Han and I becoming friends in advance, and it also gives us trust in each other.

By the way, let's see what this rich lady thinks about the fact that I used to be a boy.

If you cannot accept it, then naturally terminate it early to avoid being accused of deception in the future.

Besides, the other party is the protagonist of the script. Who knows if the fact that I concealed the fact that I was a boy in the past will become the fuse for some weird incident.

If Tan Han accepted this, she might also face a choice.

If this matter were to be exposed, and in the Witch Academy, if this were something very difficult to accept, then... as my friend, Tan Han, how would she deal with it?

In fact, I am just curious about what choice Tan Han will make. I don’t care what choice she makes. Even if the whole college hates me, I still have Sister Bai who will like me and comfort me.

Because this kind of thing was something I was destined to face since I entered the Witch Academy, but now because of Yao Beijuan's intervention, this fact has become easier to be exposed.

The main reason is that this secret is like a thorn in my heart, and it’s not like no one knows this secret. Now it seems that quite a few senior students know about it.

Judging from their reactions, the acceptance level is quite good.

But I won’t take the initiative to talk about this kind of thing on a large scale, as that would just make myself uncomfortable.

"Ex-ex-girlfriend?"

Obviously, Tan Han was also shocked by what I said, but she quickly reacted and covered her mouth.

Fortunately, because of the presence of me and Tan Han, many people left on their own accord. Besides, it is now the end of the morning competition and the contestants will leave after the competition. Who would have time to stay here and watch?

Audiences far away cannot hear the conversation here either.

"Yeah, that's what you meant."

Then I didn’t say much and just left. After all, some things are not suitable to be talked about too much.

Also, some topics seem interesting to talk about, but once you start, you lose the desire to continue.

At this time, Tan Han looked at my leaving back with complicated eyes, but she still felt incredible in her heart.

"Xiao Han...she...she is, Lily?"

Chapter 175 Methods to Improve Learning Efficiency

After riding out on the broom, I felt relieved. I always felt that I was particularly unlucky today and I met the person I least wanted to meet.

Just a while ago, I was thinking about how to help Hong Chenyi solve the problem of his ex-girlfriend, but now it’s my turn to deal with the ex-girlfriend’s affairs. I’m so unlucky.

It’s better to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible. I don’t even want to go back to the dormitory. I’ll go straight to the laboratory. I even ordered lunch takeaway there.

But it is obvious that some things cannot be covered up by avoiding them.

For example, this morning's competition is no longer the hot topic of discussion in the academy, but the elves from Afhemia Academy who were the first to arrive at the Witch Academy.

Many of the senior students seemed to be constantly making crazy comments like "shashasha" to those pretty elves with blonde hair and pointy ears.

In fact, if you look through it, you will find very few posts that make obscene remarks about those handsome male elves.

This is enough to explain some problems.

However, many freshmen still have feelings for those male elves. In response to this, the senior students simply said that there are too few witches and they do not understand the beauty of girls.

In our Class 14 group, various photos of the elves were being circulated crazily.

Originally I thought those elves came to the arena to watch the game, but now I know that was only a part of them. Those elves who had just arrived at the Witch Academy seemed to be surrounded by many senior students, experiencing the customs and culture of the Witch Academy. There were at least one or two teachers leading the team alone.

What was circulated more often were the scenes between Yao Beijuan and I in the arena’s viewing area.

It is obvious that this must have been taken by a news agency that is very good at taking snapshots. Even if it is not, it must have been taken by some other curious person.

After all, the student from Afhemia Academy came to the Witch Academy specifically to find another person, which made for a interesting story no matter how you looked at it.

People keep @ing me in the class group.

There were also a lot of gossipy guys who sent me private messages asking me about this, which made it impossible for me to pretend I didn’t see it. In the end, I just dismissed them by saying that we were just meeting as acquaintances, but they were obviously very dissatisfied with this perfunctory response. However, it was impossible for me to reveal more information.

It's better to put this matter aside for now and deal with it coldly. Let them guess freely. Even if they make up an outrageous story for me on the spot, I won't say a word.

I'll show up after things calm down.

Back in the laboratory, I feel as relaxed as if I were back home. Looking at this spacious classroom, touching this damn geomagnetic operating system, and looking at this specimen of the spell book structure that I had broken, it feels so familiar.

There is also this temporary solidified spell area that Teacher Ji Niang gave me to experiment with spell effects.

Without hesitation, I cast the spell of elemental spirit's blessing.

Of course, this spell is controlled and will not have as exaggerated an effect as it does on the field.

I found that I still don't know enough about this spell. If you let me make a comparison, when I was researching Fireball, I felt like I was exploring an old computer, but for this Elemental Elf Spellbook, I feel like it's a top-of-the-line computer. There are too many things to consider, and if I continue to try with the same mindset as before, there may be big trouble, especially with the structural changes.

This is like a cell phone for the elderly, which can be made however you want and will work anyway. However, computers are so advanced that if you want to change just one part you have to carefully check the rest.

Didn’t I end up asking Teacher Ji Niang about that benign trait before?

Even though Teacher Ji Niang explained it to me very clearly, I still instinctively felt a little confused, and I felt like I was falling behind on my own progress.

There is a feeling that I am walking alone, but the biggest burden is myself.

It doesn’t matter… This situation will probably not last too long. The final top ten contestants will appear tomorrow, and the rewards for the final top ten will be announced afterwards. At that time, I will have a chance to get the spell book that will improve my learning efficiency.

But I can't put all my hopes here, I should have other means.

For example, you can find some information on this subject in the library. Of course, there are more than just spell books in the supernatural world. There must be other means.

But not long after I arrived here, Teacher Ji Niang came out of the office and came to me. It was obvious that Ji Niang, who had not been to the arena, saw me here and came over to take a look out of curiosity.

"What? You're so diligent to come here to study the spell book even during this short time at noon? Why don't you go and have a little exchange of feelings with that elf?"

"Um... Teacher Ji Niang, please stop teasing me like this." I said, holding my forehead.

"Are you kidding? She just arrived at the Witch Academy and found you so quickly. You must be in a relationship. Many people in the academy are speculating about your relationship now."

"Well…"

Regarding Teacher Ji Niang's repeated mention of this matter, I simply did not respond. She really brought up something that was irrelevant.

"Okay, no more trouble."

Ji Niang also realized that she had said too much and had some thoughts in her mind, so she stopped talking about it. However, she felt that the breath of good fortune had not dissipated, so she was relieved.

Ji Niang knew why Afhemy Academy came so quickly, and they did this kind of thing as soon as they arrived, so it was hard for her not to imagine this.

However, it seems that the other party did not obtain this most easily obtainable piece of luck, and Lina is naturally watching Tan Han, so it is probably difficult for them to take action at this stage.

And just now, she learned from Lina about the bet proposed by Tan Han.

This at least shows that many things are moving in a positive direction.

Ji Niang looked at the fire elemental spirit beside me and asked again, "Are you going to do something with this spell book again this time?"

"Hmm? Yes." I heard Teacher Ji Niang shift the topic to spell books, and I quickly got into the mood. "Teacher, I have an idea. Can a spell book or part of a spell book's structure or ritual be embedded inside a spell book?"

"Of course you can. The spell book can do whatever you want. After all, the spell book is not such an inconvenient thing. As long as you have the skills, you can do even more incredible things." Teacher Ji Niang was also surprised after hearing my idea.

But then she said the following words to me very firmly.

"What do you mean by 'even more incredible things'?" I asked curiously. I always felt that Teacher Ji Niang's words seemed to imply something else.

"Haha, think for yourself, open your mind, and don't limit yourself." Ji Niang didn't give me any hints.

"So if I let the elemental elf with this spell effect cast the spell, it can also be done?" I asked, pointing at the elemental elf beside me.

"Of course you can, but don't forget what I said. You have to have the skills. Don't be too obsessed with useless modifications. Most attempts made in that way are a waste of time. You have to pay attention to the practice of your own skills, learn to summarize and apply what you have learned, instead of just busying yourself with your own things."

"Hmm..." I nodded reluctantly, but I only had a vague understanding of it and couldn't quite figure out the trick.

"It seems that you still don't understand. Then let me give you some examples of geniuses. Do you think that magic modified spell books are amazing?"

“It should be pretty impressive, right?” I said carefully. After all, this kind of technology is already overwhelming among people of the same level as me.

"You can't just focus on this world. Remember the void outside the world I told you about? That is a vast world. Modifying spell books is commonplace for geniuses. They grow up along the way, and every battle is a test for them. Every battle will inspire them with new ideas. They will directly modify, derive, and use spell books according to the situation in the battle. This is what genius means."

"Carry out simultaneously during battle? How is that possible?" I asked with a frown. How could something like a magic modification be able to find a new and correct direction so quickly?

Even I only conduct research after trying to fight, summarizing the shortcomings, and finding the direction.

How is it possible to fight in such a split second?

"Don't say everything is impossible. You should learn to acknowledge the excellence of others! But I believe you don't need me to remind you of this, right?"

"I understand. I'm just curious about how they did it." I lowered my head in thought. What a genius like that could accomplish could probably only be attributed to talent. That's how they could do it, right?

Is this the gap between life and life?

"I'm glad that you think so. My intention is not to discourage you, but I hope you can maintain a humble attitude on the road ahead." Ji Niang preached to me like this, but she did not say that the cases she cited were all from those witches who had not yet become the Witch of Truth.

Anyway, she was sure that Xiaohan didn't understand the void, so didn't she have the final say on what was happening outside?

"I understand." I nodded and said, "Teacher, I have another question to ask."

"Ask." Ji Niang nodded in response.

"Are there any other ways to improve learning efficiency or help memory besides spell books?"

"Of course there is. It seems you are not stupid. I thought you would just wait for the reward for the top ten." Ji Niang said with a smile.

"Really?" I immediately asked excitedly. I originally planned to ask without holding out hope, but now you're giving me this?

"What are they? Can I get them?"

"Don't worry. There are so many things that can help with learning, such as potions and magic potions. There is a category for improving memory and brain activity. However, medicine is poisonous, not to mention extraordinary potions and magic potions. The side effects may be even greater."

"Then there are alchemical items and extraordinary items. This depends on the specific information and effects of these items. Alchemical items are artificially refined, so the effect may not be very good, and there may be many restrictions. The effects of extraordinary items are too random, and the effects cannot be accurately confirmed. Although the effect may be very powerful, using them will also require an equal price."

"This... why do I feel like I'm overdrawing myself? There are so many side effects and restrictions." I listened to Teacher Ji Niang's words, and the corners of my mouth twitched a few times. I felt that the spell book was not as reliable...

"It's not an overdraft. In the words of wizards, it's just an equal exchange. As long as you get what you want and the price is affordable, it's a perfect deal. What? You want to try it?"

“I really want to try it.”

I nodded and said, I was really overwhelmed by the runes and the information, even though I hadn't been studying for very long. Maybe I was just the kind of person who was eager for quick success.

"Then you can give it a try. I remember that you are not short of money now. The academy has allocated more resources to you. To a certain extent, the value of those coins is not much lower than those mana sources and spell books. It can be regarded as compensation for you."

"The starting price for purchasing those potions is in Mithril. Alchemical items and supernatural items require a lot of Mithril just to rent. The starting price for purchasing them is in Arcanite. Many of them are even bartered. It seems that you don't know much about the purchasing power of Arcanite, right? You still need to learn more about this common sense, but don't spend money recklessly, understand?"
