But the next second, he was pulled into Yu Muqiu's arms.

At the same time, the pink light in Yu Muqiu's eyes intensified, and even her body seemed to radiate a pink glow.

His clothes had changed, and even the wand in his hand had become much longer.

This is Shining Form!

The Shining Form, which Yu Muqiu had only used once before, was unleashed by Yu Muqiu once more!

Setting Chen Xiaoxia down, Yu Muqiu gripped his wand with both hands and said to Xiao Chun in the distance:

"Xiao Chun, step back a bit!"

"!"

Xiao Chun, who was about to continue the pursuit, paused for a moment upon hearing this, but seeing Xiao Qiu's current state, she immediately obeyed Yu Muqiu's order and left the Pencil Monster's attack range.

Once Xiao Chun was far away, Xiao Qiu pointed her magic wand at the Pencil Monster:

"Although I don't know what you are, but... I'm sorry, please disappear from here!"

Buzz--

Hope's Light burst forth, and a magical Convergence Rings, designed to enhance the power of the shot, appeared at the tip of the wand. The light gathered, and as soon as it appeared, it transformed into a massive torrent of magical power, flowing from one end of the barrier to the other!

"Lead--!!!"

The Pencil Monster let out a final, eerie scream before being completely swallowed by the torrent of magic.

The torrent of magic lasted only a second, but after that second, the Pencil Monster had vanished, leaving only a broken pencil stub and a damaged correction tape on the ground.

The Pencil Monster is only at the level of Lesser Demons, while Xiao Qiu, when she activates her Shine state, is a true Middle Rank.

Furthermore, given Xiao Qiu's current magical power, even without activating her Shine Form, eliminating the Pencil Monster would be an extremely easy task, let alone with her Shining Form activated.

It was normal for Xiao Qiu to kill the Pencil Monster in one hit, but seeing Xiao Qiu in such a state, Chen Xiaoxia, who was saved by Xiao Qiu, and Murong Xiaochun in the distance all fell silent for a moment.

Chen Xiaoxia looked at Xiao Qiu now, slightly opening her mouth as if she wanted to say something. The camera focused on her mouth, and it could be seen that she opened her mouth.

But the next moment she closed her mouth, pursed her lips, and when she opened her mouth again, she uttered her usual energetic voice:

"Wow! Xiao Qiu! You're amazing! You scared me!"

Chen Xiaoxia ran happily to Yu Muqiu's side and praised her.

Hearing his best friend's praise, Yu Muqiu deactivated his Shine state, scratching his head sheepishly as he said:

"Hehehe, no, it's just that the Shine state was too strong."

"What are you saying? Nino said this is a legendary state, only one in ten thousand Magical Girls can activate it! You've activated it, so it's yours. The Shine State is powerful, isn't that your power?"

Chen Xiaoxia said to Yu Muqiu.

Murong Xiaochun walked over, her gaze lingering on Chen Xiaoxia, as if she had noticed something.

But Xiao Chun didn't say anything. She turned her gaze back to where the Pencil Monster had disappeared, walked over, picked up the broken pencil stub and correction tape, and finally asked Nino:

"This isn't Demons, right?"

Nino sniffed the pencil stub and correction tape, then nodded. "Yes, they're both magical artifacts, but... this time there's a hint of Demons energy on them."

"So, besides Xiao Bai, there really is another unknown Magical Girls lurking in the shadows, and she might be hostile towards us."

Xiao Chun made a judgment.

Xiao Chun's judgment puzzled Xiao Qiu: "Hostility? Why?"

"Because of this pencil... the weirdo is coming for us."

Xiao Chun looked at the pencil stub in her hand and whispered:

"From the moment it appeared, it came straight for us; clearly, our only target was us."

"Could it be because we ruined that sneaky guy's plans yesterday?"

Chen Xiaoxia continued, asking the question.

If today's Pencil Monster and yesterday's Toy Bear were created by the same person, then today's attack by the Pencil Monster is clearly revenge for their actions yesterday in stopping the Toy Bear.

It's understandable that Chen Xiaoxia would think that way.

"I don't know, there's still a lot of information we don't know... but until then..."

Xiao Chun looked at the real-world projection within the barrier, then at the crater on the rooftop, and said helplessly to the two of them:

"Let's think about how to handle things here first..."

Xiao Qiu: "..."

Xiaoxia: "..."

I almost forgot, there's still a huge hole in the rooftop!!

(Xiao Qiu in her Shine state is indeed incredibly strong!)

(But Xiaoxia's expression seems a little off, doesn't it?)

(My friends have suddenly become so strong, while I've fallen behind. Maybe my mindset is unstable?)

(But it's okay, Xiaoxia, you'll definitely unlock your Shining Form this season! Believe in yourself!)

(Was the Pencil Monster created by Dongdong?)

(I'm not sure... It seems like only one Toy Bear ever appeared in Spring City...)

"Pencil... correction tape..."

Fang Ming turned to look at Song Niandong.

A look of confusion appeared on Song Niandong's face; clearly, she didn't know what the pencil and correction tape were.

Fang Ming thought about it for a moment and wasn't surprised by Song Niandong's confusion.

Although Song Niandong, who was in the Sky Screen, knew that Xiao Qiu and the others were Magical Girls, he acted a little more aggressively because not many people knew about Magical Girls.

However, Song Niandong, who was under the Sky Screen, had to be much more restrained in her behavior because the Magical Girls was already known to the whole world.

In addition, not long after becoming Magical Girls, Song Niandong stopped going to school with Black Rabbit... no, it should be said that Black Rabbit Youyou stopped going to school with Song Niandong, for fear of being discovered by the Magical Girls. Therefore, pencils and correction tape would not appear in Song Niandong's 'Book of Friends'.

This only happens when there is no Sky Screen.

Those pencils and correction tape are 'monsters' that only appear in the Sky Screen.

Chapter Ninety-Six: The Transfer Student is a classic... but why is he a teacher!?

The large hole on the rooftop obviously couldn't be repaired by magic; even Magical Girls couldn't fix it.

However, the Magical Girls can use their Suggestion to make bystanders who witness the Pencil Monster forget everything they saw.

As for how to explain the large hole...

After Chen Xiaoxia and the others Suggestion at their reasoning, they explained that the rooftop had been in disrepair for many years, causing it to collapse. The collapse hit the fifth floor below, then went down another floor, finally stopping on the third floor.

This explanation is barely plausible; at least given the magical Suggestion, few people would doubt it.

Afterwards, Xiao Chun went to the monitoring room and deleted all the surveillance footage, which finally brought the matter to a temporary close.

"... Don't let me catch that sneaky guy! He's putting us in such a passive position!"

On her way home from school, Chen Xiaoxia couldn't help but feel angry when she thought about how she and her friends had almost had their identities exposed by the Pencil Monster earlier that day.

Xiao Chun was also exhausted.

Suggestion Magic is a common technique used by Magical Girls to avoid being detected by ordinary people. However, because it does not possess any Magical Girls characteristics and is a general skill, it consumes much more magic power than exclusive magic.

The three of them have already reached their limit by giving Suggestion to so many people today and implanting non-existent memories.

In other words, Xiao Qiu is still full of energy, as if she hasn't been affected at all.

After seeing Xiao Qiu and Dongdong off again, Chen Xiaoxia and Xiao Chun stood at the crossroads, watching Yu Muqiu's retreating figure as he saw Dongdong off, lost in thought for a moment.

Xiao Chun turned to look at Chen Xiaoxia, who had her hands behind her head, and seeing her lost in thought, suddenly said:

Are you envious of Xiao Qiu's Shining Form?

"..."

Chen Xiaoxia remained silent, watching Xiao Qiu leave until she was out of sight before softly saying:

It's impossible not to be envious...

After she finished speaking, she suddenly laughed and said, "But it's just envy. Xiao Qiu can activate her Shining Form because she's powerful. You can't envy someone like that."

Chen Xiaoxia said this, she turned and walked towards her home, saying:

"Okay, I'm going home now. Xiao Chun, would you like to come over for a bit?"

No, thank you.

See you tomorrow!

"See you tomorrow."

Chen Xiaoxia and Xiao Chun waved goodbye and walked away.

Xiao Chun watched Chen Xiaoxia's retreating figure and couldn't help but sigh.

After Chen Xiaoxia walked away, Nino, who had listened to the whole thing, saw Xiao Chun sigh and asked in confusion:

"Xiao Chun, what's wrong? The way you're looking at Xiaoxia seems a bit strange..."

Hearing Nino's question, Xiao Chun sighed again and said to Nino:

"Xiaoxia... is actually a very competitive person."

"Hmm? So?"

"So, seeing the gap widening between herself and Xiao Qiu, she must be very disappointed."

Xiao Chun murmured to herself.

Actually, it wasn't just Xiaoxia, even she...

Forget it, Shining Form is a legendary form. Xiao Qiu's ability to activate it is her talent. Ordinary Magical Girls like them shouldn't even think about such things.

Xiao Chun, who has a natural talent for learning, is well aware of this.

Sometimes, talent is everything.

(As expected, Xiaoxia still cares about this matter quite a bit.)

(It's normal to care. We already knew from the first episode of the first season that Xiao Qiu and Xiaoxia have been good friends for a long time, and Xiaoxia used to always be the one protecting Xiao Qiu, but now...)

(Isn't it nice to be protected by your friends instead?)

(Xiaoxia is a rather competitive person.)

(Talent... it can be really frustrating sometimes...)

The comments section erupted in exclamations, Fang Ming, unusually, fell silent at this moment.

Sometimes, having talent and not having talent are two completely different worlds.

Xiao Qiu was able to activate her Shining Form so quickly because of Xiao Qiu own talent, while Chen Xiaoxia... without the Sky Screen, it's hard to be sure whether she actually has the talent to activate her Shining Form.

If not, she would fall behind Xiao Qiu and might even be unable to participate in future battles.

This must be unacceptable to Chen Xiaoxia.

However, in front of her friend, Chen Xiaoxia didn't want Xiao Qiu to know her thoughts; she didn't want her friend to know that she... harbored 'jealousy' towards her friend.

"Xiaoxia..."

The Sky Screen directly conveyed Chen Xiaoxia's thoughts, and even without revealing Chen Xiaoxia's inner feelings, it still made Yu Muqiu aware of his friend's ideas.

She looked at Xiaoxia with concern, but then Xiaoxia burst into laughter:

"Haha, don't worry, you saw it in the ending theme, right? I definitely activated my Shining Form! So I'm not envious of you now, don't worry!"

Chen Xiaoxia grinned and gave Yu Muqiu a thumbs up.

Yu Muqiu stared intently at Chen Xiaoxia for a long while, making sure Chen Xiaoxia wasn't just putting on a brave face, before he felt relieved and encouraged Xiaoxia:

"Yes! I believe you can do it! Xiaoxia, you can do it!"

The girls encouraged each other, but Xiao Chun poured cold water on Xiaoxia's enthusiasm:
