"Boom boom boom!!!"

The surging Thunder left cracks even on the light screen.

However, the power of this Thunderclap was clearly not enough to break through the defense.

After the Thunderclap passed and the light screen dissipated, Lu Zhenghe, who had been arrogant moments ago, was sitting on the ground, his Ghost Wolf Beast cowering in fear.

Chen Lang turned to look at the New Student Director.

Indeed, if he hadn't intervened just now, the Ghost Wolf Beast would have become a charred corpse by now.

"Student Chen, this was just a friendly spar, why go so far?"

The New Student Director felt a pang of fear. He hadn't expected Chen Lang to be so decisive. If he hadn't acted in time, Lu Zhenghe would probably have been crippled...

"I just saw that this student was very confident in his summoned beast, so I used Intermediate Magic," Chen Lang said casually.

Upon hearing this, the New Student Director had nothing more to say and turned to Lu Zhenghe, "Alright, Student Lu Zhenghe, you may step down."

Lu Zhenghe was already somewhat dejected.

He muttered to himself, "Impossible."

Intermediate Magic!

How could this person, at such a young age, have already mastered Intermediate Magic?

He hadn't even seen the opponent draw his star chart!

Not only Lu Zhenghe, but everyone present was moved by this.

At the same age, reaching the intermediate level was already a remarkable feat for them. Yet, this person had already mastered powerful Intermediate Magic...

With Chen Lang's strength and the speed at which he drew his star chart, even some teachers might not be his match.

"We concede," Teacher Li from Class 3 said, having completely given up hope.

A competition concerning the class ended just like that. Chen Lang became famous throughout the Green Campus on his very first day of enrollment.

As Chen Lang descended from the Fighting Ground, Teacher Zhao, who had been stern-faced before, was now beaming. "Student Chen Lang, you've worked hard..."

He had never expected such an easy victory.

Without Chen Lang, their class would likely have been no match for Lu Zhenghe's Ghost Wolf Beast.

"Teacher Zhao, I preferred your attitude towards me before."

Zhao Qing felt a little awkward.

Compared to Zhao Qing, the eyes of the other students were filled with admiration.

"Student Chen Lang, you... how did you cultivate? The speed at which you cast your Intermediate Magic is faster than my Primary Magic!!"

Someone quickly posed the question.

Chen Lang casually replied, "Oh, my innate talent is One Thought Star Chart."

Some things couldn't be hidden, so there was no point in concealing them.

Moreover, with enough effort, even ordinary Mages could achieve this kind of talent in the future.

So it wasn't a big deal; it was just that Chen Lang got to enjoy the process earlier.

Of course, as it stood, Chen Lang was likely to have One Thought Constellation at the high-level as well!

With the Black Annihilation, the Star Seeds were like Servants, only needing his single thought to complete the splicing of the star chart.

However, just One Thought Star Track and One Thought Star Chart weren't extraordinary talents. If it remained this way, then this talent would be truly monstrous!

"Hiss... One Thought Star Chart!!!"

The New Student Director, who had walked down, was also shocked upon hearing Chen Lang's words.

With such talent, he would likely have few rivals among his peers!

"..."

As everyone crowded around Chen Lang, Mu Ningxue's cold eyes were filled with shock.

She had been recruited from the small city of Bocheng to the Imperial Capital Academy in the great Imperial Capital.

She discovered that geniuses were truly everywhere here. Even though these people's cultivation was not weak, through countless spars and growth, she had reached the pinnacle of the Green Campus.

She had completely caught up from behind, and she believed she had no rivals among her peers.

Currently, her cultivation was driven by a Cold Demon within her body that constantly pushed her.

If she didn't strive to improve, the Cold Demon would torment her relentlessly.

For a long time, Mu Ningxue felt that her cultivation was perhaps only to resist her own backlash.

But she hadn't expected... that today, this guy who had impure intentions towards her from the moment they met had displayed strength that shocked even her.

They were clearly of the same age, but based on Chen Lang's performance today, the gap between them was like heaven and earth...

At this moment, she suddenly felt that cultivation had become meaningful.

To chase and surpass him, rather than cultivating because of the Cold Demon that pushed her.

Of course, even with this new understanding of Chen Lang, it was purely in terms of strength. Nothing more.

On the way back, Chen Lang walked beside Mu Ningxue and said with a laugh, "How was it? Weren't you amazed by my strength? Don't you feel like worshipping me?"

"Gross."

Mu Ningxue glanced at the chattering Chen Lang and responded coldly.

Chen Lang's mouth twitched.

"I don't want to be gross, I just want to be friends with you."

"Just friends?"

"Boyfriend and girlfriend."

"I'm not worthy."

Mu Ningxue wasn't stupid. Especially after coming to the Imperial Capital Academy, she had a clear understanding of her own Family.

In Bocheng, she was a little princess.

In the Imperial Capital, she was just a commoner.

Someone like Chen Lang, there would be no outcome between them.

Chen Lang had naturally expected to be rejected, but he hadn't expected to be rejected like this...

Chen Lang stopped in his tracks and asked directly, "Is it just because of this?"

Mu Ningxue also stopped and looked at him, saying very seriously, "My other half only needs to be satisfactory to the Family. My Family will definitely have no objections to you. Conversely, what about you?"

Everything she had now was provided by the Family, given to her by her father, Mu Zhuoyun.

Mu Zhuoyun only had her as his daughter, so she naturally had to repay him. After all, her father was not only her father but also the head of a clan.

(Note: The original work clearly stated that Mu Ningxue never considered anything with Mo Fan; it was all Mo Fan's persistent pursuit until the end.

At this time, Mu Ningxue might have felt a sense of guilt towards Mo Fan from their childhood, and that was all.)

"I have no problem either," Chen Lang said immediately.

Hearing Chen Lang's answer, the expression on Mu Ningxue's face changed for the first time in a long time.

She frowned slightly, completely disbelieving what Chen Lang had said.

Even her small Family had all sorts of restrictions; how could Chen Lang's powerful aristocratic clan allow him to choose his own marriage?

"I don't believe you," Mu Ningxue said calmly.

She wasn't trying to flirt with Chen Lang; at this time, she truly had no such intentions.

But sooner or later, such matters would have to be dealt with, and if possible, Chen Lang would undoubtedly be suitable.

Talented and from a superior family background. Although she didn't have a strong preference for looks, Chen Lang undoubtedly fit her aesthetic.

It was just that she didn't believe Chen Lang's words; in her opinion, he was just coveting her appearance
