The next morning, Fengyun drank a bottle of Body Strengthening Potion to soothe his throat and also to relieve the hangover from the previous night.

After tidying himself up and changing into a white outfit with gold patterns, he rode his Ma Yi and led his Ma San towards the Kailai Family's mansion.

Along the way, the handsome young man and the two Thunderwing Pegasus attracted a lot of attention, after all, Thunderwing Pegasus, a magical beast that represents light and purity, is really eye-catching in the Holy Alliance.

However, there were no scenes of rich kids forcibly seizing or plundering the beast during this process. After all, the Thunderwing Pegasus is Seventh-Rank Magical Beast, and being able to subdue such a magical beast itself demonstrates the strength or powerful background of the subduer.

Moreover, the story of Fengyun and Thunderwing Pegasus was already widely circulated when they entered the city yesterday. Many people know that Fengyun, dressed in white, is the same Fengyun who has made a name for himself as a swordsman of Light Shadow Swordsman in recent years by saving people. He is also the Special Warfare Camp genius who has inexplicably become very popular in the aristocratic circle recently.

Before he even arrived at the Kailai Family's residence, Huihui, dressed in a red dress, had already come out to greet him.

Fengyun thought Huihui looked very dashing in armor and wielding a sword, but it wasn't appropriate for the two of them to always be dressed as warriors when they went out for a trip.

This red dress was one Huihui they went out together.

Although his aesthetic sense wasn't great, the color of the clothes matched Huihui well, and beautiful people look good in anything, so Huihui still looked very pretty in it.

After the two met, Fengyun immediately signaled Huihui to ride on Ma San's back. With the blessing of the Radiance Magic, the two soon arrived at a scenic hillside outside the city.

Normally, they have to set off early to enjoy the sunrise and sunset here, spending a lot of time on the road before they can get here.

But with the Thunderwing Pegasus as a mount, the speed becomes much faster.

While stroking the horse's mane, Huihui looked at the rising sun, which had been up for quite some time, and asked, "Brother Yun, is this Thunderwing Pegasus a magical beast that you contracted in the Monster Mountain Range?"

Fengyun smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, it's your magical beast!"

The Thunderwing Pegasus was a magical beast he had chosen for Huihui long ago. It was Light Attribute, fast, and could fly. Its Level 7 strength was enough to handle most crises.

One of the reasons he contracted Ma Yi as his magical beast was that the Thunderwing Pegasus was highly functional.

As he spoke, he set up Soul Contract Magic Array right there. There were too many spies in the city, and nowhere was safe. Everyone was being watched.

He didn't want to reveal his magical abilities, so naturally he couldn't set up a contract magic array within the city.

To conceal his strength, he had already used his connections to obtain two Soul Contract Magic Scroll as a cover. He had also spoken with Lin Lei, so that if anyone inquired about the contract of the Thunderwing Pegasus, they would say that Lin Lei had helped set up the Soul Contract Magic Array.

Anyway, Lin Lei didn't intend to hide the fact that he had reached Level 7. Having awakened his family bloodline, he planned to graduate directly, and publicizing it would help him revitalize his family.

Lin Lei even plans to follow in Fengyun's footsteps to other places to train with magical beasts and improve his skills as a warrior.

Of course, he didn't give up on magic either. After all, with the Body Strengthening Potion that Fengyun researched, which could enhance Spiritual Power, Lin Lei would be a fool to give up his magical training.

In Lin Lei's view, the right path is to start with both warriors and magic, just like in the story of Fengyun.

However, Huihui was startled by the meaning behind Fengyun's arrangement of this formation. As a magician herself, she naturally knew the requirements for setting up Soul Contract Magic Array.

The fact that Fengyun could set up this formation means he is already Level Seven Mage.

Fengyun's reputation spread far and wide, and in order to highlight his legend and encourage his trainees to train hard, the Special Warfare Camp specifically emphasized his background and talent in its publicity.

Overall, the Special Warfare Camp's publicity efforts were not strong enough, and the name of the Light Shadow Swordsman did not spread widely.

But as Fengyun's fiancée, Huihui probably knows more about him than Fengyun himself does.

Once she heard Ma San's voice in her mind and confirmed that Ma San had acknowledged her as his master, Huihui was certain that her future husband, Feng Yun, whose elemental affinity was average and Spiritual Power was only low, had quietly reached the Fengyun of Level Seven Mage.

Unlike warriors who can progress quickly simply by putting in hard work and resources, there are no shortcuts for mages in their training.

A 16-year-old Level Seven Mage —that's a true top genius, one of the few in history!

"Brother Yun, your magic cultivation has actually reached Level 7?"

Fengyun sat on the grass with Huihui in his arms and said, "Well, strictly speaking, I've only reached Level 7 in terms of Spiritual Power. Because my magic power hasn't liquefied yet, I'm not considered Level Seven Mage."

"But remember to keep this a secret from me, okay? Let's keep it a little secret between us, alright?"

Upon hearing this, Huihui knew that Fengyun did not intend to reveal his magical cultivation. Although she did not know why Fengyun did this, she immediately filled in the gap and said, "Hey, Brother Yun, since you are unwilling to reveal your magical cultivation, it is really unwise of you to bring Ma San to find me in such a big way today."

"Fortunately, our Kailai Family still has some connections. Now that our family has partnered with the Dawson Merchant Guild, some of the previously strained relationships have been revitalized."

"I'll use my connections to get someone to make Soul Contract Magic Scroll these next couple of days. We'll then lie and say that we formed the Soul Contract Magic Scroll with Ma Yi and Ma San."

The Soul Contract Magic Scroll isn't too expensive for Fengyun right now; its scarcity stems from the limited number of crafters. If you really want one, simply find Alchemy familiar with magic circles and capable of crafting it to order.

The Soul Contract Scroll that Fengyun obtained before was made by a teacher from the Special Warfare Camp, who was paid to do so.

Then, Huihui frowned slightly and said, "However, doing this will inevitably leave a trace. If someone with a purpose wants to investigate, they will eventually find out the problem."

Seeing Huihui frowning and deep in thought about how to deal with her tail, Fengyun gently pinched her nose and said, "I've already prepared the Soul Contract Magic Scroll, no one will suspect anything."

Huihui's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she exclaimed, "Everything's ready?!"

Then she asked curiously, "Why didn't you just take it out and use it? A Soul Contract Magic Scroll is only worth 10,000 gold coins, but a Level 7 Magic Core is worth 50,000 gold coins!"

Fengyun chuckled and said, "Haha~, how come you've already shown your housekeeper-like temperament so early?"

"Don't worry, the energy in Level 7 Magic Crystal Core won't be used up all at once. Setting up a magic circle and using it ten or eight times is no problem at all. Overall, it's more cost-effective than Soul Contract Magic Scroll."
