Although he only saw a figure and half of a profile, Bai Mo felt that this girl should be very beautiful.

But he immediately lost his curiosity.

Because with the girl's successful awakening, an invisible wave spread out from her.

First, her homeroom teacher and her classmates were affected, and they fainted without a sound.

This was the main reason Bai Mo noticed the wave.

Then Bai Mo's pupils contracted.

The wave had spread to their class!!

Watching his teacher and classmates faint one after another before they could even react. Feeling the invisible energy sweep over his body.

Bai Mo felt all sorts of emotions and thoughts surge into his mind like a river bursting its banks, as if trying to break through his Mental World.

"Hmph~!"

Bai Mo grunted, his body shaking uncontrollably, and his vision went black in waves, but luckily he didn't faint.

After a moment, he suddenly noticed that the noisy, screaming playground, which had become chaotic due to the situation on their side, had suddenly gone silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

He looked up in the direction of the girl and saw an old man wearing glasses and clothes like the Zhongshan suit from his past life appear beside the girl.

The wave, which had been spreading, also dissipated.

Bai Mo's probing gaze met a pair of calm eyes, deep and beautiful, like the starry sky.

It was the girl's. He subconsciously looked away.

Then he met a pair of seemingly old eyes. The eyes were equally calm, yet seemed to contain the ultimate truth of the world.

Slightly stunned, Bai Mo was confused. Why are they looking at me?!

Oh, he hadn't fallen down.

After thinking for a moment, he supported his still slightly dizzy head and lay down on the ground.

Pretending he had been knocked out by the wave.

I'm just an ordinary student, with no special talent.

Now it was the other two's turn to be stunned. Then the old man chuckled, "Interesting."

He didn't pay them any mind, but instead said something to the school leaders who had walked over.

Then he reached out and placed his hand on the girl's shoulder.

At the same time, streaks of silver starlight lit up. In just an instant, these brilliant and mysterious silver lights outlined a magnificent constellation, enveloping the two.

With a flash of silver light, the two disappeared.

Only a few school leaders who were discussing matters, and the school doctor tending to the fainted teachers and students, remained at the scene.

"Instantaneous Movement!"

Bai Mo, lying on the ground and secretly observing the situation, exclaimed inwardly, just like the classmates in the distance.

Seeing a few school doctors approaching him, Bai Mo stood up. He didn't want to lie in the earthen houses temporarily built by the Earth Element teacher.

It was definitely not because the triangular houses were too strange.

The footsteps of the two school doctors approaching him paused. One of the female school doctors stepped forward and asked:

"Classmate, are you feeling unwell?"

"No."

"Let me check."

However, the female doctor still didn't believe him. She summoned a healing light and scanned him.

Feeling his abs being touched, Bai Mo looked at the female doctor expressionlessly.

Is this how you check?

The female doctor didn't look at him and retracted the healing light.

However, feeling a warm and comfortable sensation all over his body, Bai Mo didn't say anything. He considered it payment.

Anyway, because he was good-looking, he had been touched by women like older sisters, aunts, and cousins since he was young.

The awakening ceremony continued. As a victim of the awakening fluctuation caused by that girl, and the only one awake.

He was summoned to the office by the school leader.

"Teacher Bai, why did you call me?"

"What happened just now needs to be kept a secret."

"Oh." Bai Mo replied, extending his hand with his palm open.

"Where's the hush money?"

"Hey, you little brat, you're really not polite!"

Bai Mo's expression remained unchanged as he continued to extend his hand, saying calmly, "Uncle, I'm a little brat, what are you? Be careful, I'll tell Grandpa what you said."

"I..." Bai Changkong was momentarily speechless. He took an Irregular Grey Pebble from a box on the table and tossed it to Bai Mo. "I can't be bothered to lecture you."

Bai Mo caught the small stone and examined it. It was tiny, not even as big as his thumb. He then asked, "What is this?"

"A Space Magic Crystal, used to assist Space Mages in meditation and cultivation. Dean Xiao specifically designated it as compensation for you. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, I'll keep it absolutely secret. My lips are sealed."

Bai Mo nodded, and he understood the old man's identity. Thinking about it, the identity of that girl also became clear. To cause such a huge commotion just by awakening, it must have been her.

"If there's nothing else, I'm leaving."

"Mhm, go back and cultivate well. Don't waste your talent."

"I don't understand what you're talking about."

Bai Changkong suddenly felt an urge to hit something. He was helpless against his nephew's personality. Lecturing him was useless; he'd just get tangled up in Bai Mo's twisted logic. He could only impatiently wave his hand.

"Get out, get out, get out!!"

Bai Mo grinned, tossed the stone in his hand, and walked out.

The classroom was empty, but he heard that the unconscious teachers and students would wake up within half an hour at most. He estimated that someone would come within an hour.

Since he had nothing else to do during this time, Bai Mo decided to try controlling the star seeds. Although controlling them was supposed to take days of meditation, trying it wouldn't hurt.

Having witnessed Dean Xiao's Instantaneous Movement, it was impossible not to yearn for it.

He closed his eyes. In his Mental World, only a speck of silver dust shimmered. Within this mysterious silver, seven star seeds glowing with silver light flickered continuously.

Each time they flickered, they changed positions.

Mage cultivation has three steps:

Meditation and cultivation: Magic also requires magic energy. The amount of magic energy determines the duration and realm of the magic.

Controlling star seeds: Only by mastering the star seeds within the Stardust can one arrange Star Orbits and cast corresponding magic.

Practicing magic: It's not enough to be able to cast magic; one must also know how to use it. It's like writing; some people write quickly and beautifully, while others write slowly and sloppily.

This severely affects the grade on the exam paper!

And what Bai Mo was about to do was control.

After observing for a while, Bai Mo seized the gap before a star seed flickered. He extended his mental will and precisely grasped it.

Having read the Star Control Guide, he prepared to concentrate his spirit to deal with the star seed's subsequent frantic struggle. However, he only felt the star seed, bound by his mental will, tremble slightly a few times.

Then it gave up struggling, actively established a connection with him, broke free from its restraints, and happily flitted about in the stardust.

"???"

Bai Mo felt his mind was full of question marks. Was it successful just like that? It wasn't as difficult as described in the books.

Could it be.

So, to avoid misjudging, he grabbed another star.

Perhaps this star was shown off by the previously tamed star.

As soon as it was restrained by his mental will, it immediately established a connection with him, not even offering symbolic resistance.

Third time's the charm, third time's the charm!!

He silently recited twice.

Bai Mo once again controlled his will to capture a star, but the result was the same.

Refusing to believe it, he grabbed star after star, and finally looked at a pen he was holding in mid-air with his telekinesis.

Bai Mo fell silent.

After all, he was from a prominent family. He might lack common sense, but he couldn't lack magical common sense.

Whether it was from books or from seeing his elder brother cultivate magic with his own eyes, Bai Mo knew that the process of controlling stars was not easy.

He glanced at the clock hanging at the top of the blackboard.

Forty minutes. He had only used forty minutes!

In this way, he had mastered seven stars and cast a spell in just forty minutes, a feat that could take others at least half a year!

The cruel reality shocked Bai Mo: Damn it, I'm actually a genius?!

He suddenly remembered that he hadn't been dazed by Ding Yumian's mind wave, which suggested he was extraordinary.

But he also knew clearly that he was definitely not a victim. This made his talent even more terrifying.

With such great talent, he wouldn't have to work too hard, right?

In an instant, Bai Mo nodded. Control was unnecessary. He could achieve this through meditation alone. It seemed there was nothing to strive for.

He would just cultivate step by step, and perhaps wander around. If he died while wandering.

He still had his elder brother, Bai Hanxing, as the pillar of the family.

Anyway, he didn't want to be the pillar of support; it was too boring, and this world was full of excitement.

He thought of his older brother's life.

Apart from sleeping, every other moment was spent cultivating. After meditating, he would cast spells and fight. He had no time for anything else; it was terrifying.

He didn't even have time to date. Like the author, he was almost twenty-four and still a virgin!

Instead, Bai Mo felt that the Cultivation Guidance was well-written—it was advisable for a mage to cultivate for about 5 hours a day. Of course, that was also the maximum time they could meditate.

The main reason was that newly awakened mages' Mental Power could only last that long. Any longer would lead to mental fatigue, and they wouldn't enter a meditative state at all.

Unless they had magical cultivation tools like the Stardust Magic Tool, which could extend a mage's meditation time.
