Tang Yue turned to look at Tang Miao, her lively, enchanting eyes carrying a potent allure. It was probably only someone as beastly as Tang Miao who could still hold the line in the face of that...

Tang Miao: This is true love, what do you know!

Of course, even true love sometimes couldn't withstand the test, but whenever it reached that point, a flame would always ignite in Tang Yue's hand! And the key thing was, that spot terrified Tang Miao...

So... let's not talk about it~

Tang Yue wasn't actually surprised. Tang Miao had never been one to follow rules—otherwise, why would the Great Serpent be by the bedside right now?

After all, the Great Serpent used to stay in the middle of the lake. It was only after Tang Miao showed up that it chose to follow him...

Even Tang Zhong couldn't make it go back. As for disciplining Tang Miao, he didn't have the guts for that, since the Great Serpent was utterly obedient to Tang Miao.

Letting out a soft, fragrant sigh, Tang Yue slapped away Tang Miao's paw that had crept up in front of her, saying shyly, "Have you made up your mind? Joining the academy doesn't have that many rules, but if you can't achieve good results, your cultivation speed will slow down a lot."

With his Dual Element, and a Dual Element that came with its own domain, plus that cultivation speed, Tang Miao was at his most valuable right now.

If he missed this window, it would be much harder to join the Judgment Society later. After all, it's best to nurture geniuses from the very start!

Unable to enjoy the softness, Tang Miao settled for resting his hand on Tang Yue's waist and replied, "I'll take the training. But if you get bullied, I'd have to think twice before acting. If I stand on my own, though, anyone who messes with you—I'll bring the Great Serpent and wipe them out in no time!"

Tang Yue's mouth twitched slightly... That was actually a reason she couldn't argue against.

And besides, Tang Miao's personality really wasn't suited for a place full of scheming and intrigue.

"Fine... let's sleep."

Tang Yue turned over, not planning to continue the discussion, but before closing her eyes, she added a warning, "No more mischief, or I won't come again."

It was a weak threat, but Tang Miao had no choice but to accept it.

The next day, when Tang Miao woke up, he habitually groped around beside him. When his hand touched a cool, slender body, he grabbed it and tossed it to the foot of the bed.

"You lecherous idiot snake, how did you get into my bed again?!"

Even without opening his eyes, he knew exactly who it was.

Who else could it be but the Totem Mystic Snake?

After being thrown to the foot of the bed, the snake hissed in protest, flicking its tongue. Normally, it slept right beside him!

Hearing the snake's displeasure, Tang Miao stretched out his foot and stepped right on it.

A lordly monarch, being stepped on by a Beginner Mage... He was probably the only person in the world who'd dare do that.

Hearing Tang Miao's complaint, Tang Yue pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing the snake pinned under his foot, she scolded him playfully, "Why are you bullying the big guy again? Get up!"

At the sound of Tang Yue's soft, alluring voice, Tang Miao cracked his eyes open a sliver. He was still pretty sleepy—after all, having a bewitching woman like her by his side made it hard to fall asleep peacefully...

But when he saw Tang Yue standing there in an apron, his heavy eyelids snapped wide open.

With that apron on, it felt like her charm had somehow increased...

Just moments ago, he'd been drowsy, but now he was fully awake. He rolled over and reached out for a good-morning hug.

What he got, of course, was a jade hand pushing him away...

"Go wash up and eat. I'll guide you in cultivation later." With that, Tang Yue turned and swayed her firm backside out of the room.

After breakfast, Tang Yue started tutoring Tang Miao on some magic knowledge. And during this session, she was truly impressed—and a little baffled. How had Tang Miao managed to cultivate so fast when he was completely clueless about these basics?

The charming older sister instantly transformed into a strict teacher.

Whenever Tang Miao didn't understand something she taught, Tang Yue would give him a smack!

But instead of being upset, Tang Miao looked thoroughly delighted.

Tang Yue knew full well that his mind was probably wandering to some weird place again. And more than once, when she caught him pretending to be clueless when he actually knew the answer, she felt utterly drained...

That exhausting stretch lasted a whole month. Luckily, Tang Miao's cultivation speed wasn't slow, or she'd have blown her top.

But after a month passed, Tang Yue had to leave again for a mission.

That day, after finishing the lesson, Tang Yue hesitated before speaking. "Tomorrow, I have a mission. I need to go to Bo City. I'll recommend a magic high school in the Magic Capital for you. Go there and train well. I'll come see you when I have time."

"Bo City?"

Hearing that, Tang Miao froze! If Tang Yue was going to Bo City now, didn't that mean the place was on the verge of destruction?

He couldn't remember much clearly, but wasn't the beginning of everything the destruction of Bo City?

Looking at Tang Yue, he asked, "Does Bo City have a magic high school too?"

"Don't be silly. I'm going on a mission. It's too dangerous for you to come along..."

She'd watched him grow up, so she knew exactly what he was thinking.

Seeing her refuse, Tang Miao pressed on, "I know, but experience brings improvement. I want to go with you!"

"No."

"..."

Tang Miao tried to argue, but in the end, he gave in. Sometimes, he had to admit that Tang Yue had a queenly aura of her own.

Without her approval, and since she wasn't in any real danger, and he was still a weakling, Tang Miao dropped the idea of going to Bo City.

Actually, that made sense. Even if he went, it wouldn't do much good. After all, this was just an experiment for the Black Vatican, but without reaching the Intermediate level, he wouldn't even have a chance to survive. Under those circumstances, what thrill was there to chase?

After that, Tang Miao arrived at a high school magic academy in the Magic Capital, recommended by Tang Yue.

Since he'd missed the start of the semester, getting in at this point was basically pulling strings. But because the Judgment Society had contacted the principal, he got the treatment of being personally received by his Homeroom Teacher.

He'd thought life was pretty dull, but when he saw who his Homeroom Teacher was, Tang Miao was instantly revived!

The Homeroom Teacher wasn't that old—she looked about twenty-three or twenty-four. Even though she was only a meter sixty, she could be described as petite and cute. Especially her little face, like a porcelain doll—he always felt like pinching it to test the texture...

Leaving the principal's office, Tang Miao looked down at his short Homeroom Teacher and asked, "Teacher Li Li, how old are you this year?"

Li Li paused, seeming a bit nervous. She turned back and glared at Tang Miao, saying sternly, "Is that a question a student should be asking?"

Tang Miao didn't mind and laughed. "Just asking your age, nothing else. Is that against the law?"

"I'm twenty-five!"

Li Li looked a bit helpless and finally had to answer.

Tang Miao pressed on, "Are you an Advanced Mage?"

"Intermediate!"

"Do you have a boyfriend?"

"No..." She was about to answer when she immediately caught herself. Looking at Tang Miao, she said, "If you keep this up, I'll go to the principal and have you transferred to another class!"

"Did you just start teaching?"

"How did you know..." Li Li was startled, then stomped her foot in frustration. "I really will tell the principal!"

"Heh heh..."

Watching this rookie Homeroom Teacher on the verge of tears, Tang Miao smiled and said, "Just kidding, just kidding. But next time you pretend to be angry, don't let your body tremble."

With that, Tang Miao walked into his classroom.
