Lucian, as a seasoned veteran apprentice at Kamar-Taj, might have had mediocre spellcasting skills, but his insight and discernment were definitely top-notch.

This was clearly two peerless powerhouses fighting to the death in the Mirror Dimension.

In the end, they had literally used nuke-level attacks to smash the barriers of the Mirror Dimension to pieces!

The tremors felt in the real world were merely a shred of the aftermath leaking out as the space collapsed.

The problem now was...

Across the entire Kamar-Taj, aside from the elusive The Ancient One, who else possessed such world-shattering strength?

Even top Masters like Wong and Mordo couldn't do it!

What terrified Lucian even more was...

When he had been dodging the Spatial Rift just a moment ago, he had seen it clearly.

The source of that rift had clearly spread out from the direction of Raine's—that newly risen monstrous apprentice—dormitory!

Taking advantage of the big shots' absence today, he had originally wanted to come and build some rapport with his genius junior fellow apprentice, and incidentally hug a golden thigh.

Who could have guessed that he would almost lose his little life right here!

Holy shit... Could it be that this kid caused this commotion?!

A wildly crazy, and even somewhat absurd, guess suddenly popped up in Lucian's mind.

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

Lucian shook his head frantically, trying to banish this crazy thought from his mind.

He's only been initiated for half a month! Even if he started practicing magic from his mother's womb, it's impossible for him to be strong enough to smash even the Mirror Dimension to pieces!

Although he said he didn't believe it with his mouth.

Yet Lucian's legs uncontrollably ran toward Raine's dormitory.

Whether it was him or not, going over for a look would tell!

Right in the center of such a terrifying spatial storm, if Raine could still manage to survive in one piece...

That would mean the peerless powerhouse who had fought to the death inside just now was him!

Because apart from the Sorcerer Supreme and the parties involved in the battle, no one could survive under that level of spatial tearing!

Lucian ran all the way, not even caring about his usual etiquette, and without even knocking on the door, he shoved Raine's bedroom door wide open.

Inside the room.

Raine was sitting cross-legged on the bed, meditating with his eyes closed, not even a single strand of hair out of place.

Hearing the commotion, he slowly opened his eyes with a clear gaze, as if the massive commotion outside had nothing to do with him whatsoever.

"Senior Brother Lucian? Why are you here, and why are you running all sweaty?"

Raine feigned surprise as he stood up and went to greet him.

However, Lucian had completely no heart to entertain Raine's polite niceties.

Like a crazy sasaeng fan seeing his idol, he rushed forward in a single bound, grabbed Raine's hands tightly, his face red and his lips trembling.

"You... how on earth did you do this?!"

"Do what?"

Raine put on a baffled expression.

"Don't play dumb! The space collapse just now!"

Lucian was so excited that his spit was flying everywhere. "My talent might be mediocre, but I'm not blind! That Spatial Rift exploded right from your place!"

"Ahem..."

Raine gave two dry coughs, straightened his expression, and said with extreme seriousness, "Senior brother, if I said... it was actually just The Ancient One passing by and casually stretching her muscles just now, would you believe it?"

Lucian stared fixedly at Raine with a You've gotta be fucking kidding me look.

Make up more!

Go on making it up!

If I believed your bullshit, I'd be a pure-blooded retard!

Who didn't know that The Ancient One was currently away on business in other dimensions?

Even if she had returned, would she be so bored out of her mind as to smash up the Mirror Dimension for fun inside her apprentice's dormitory?

Although Raine refused to admit it to the end.

Yet Lucian was already ten-thousand-percent convinced.

The terrifying fluctuation from just now that was enough to destroy everything was definitely caused by this harmless-looking kid right before his eyes!

"You brat... you're no once-in-a-century genius at all."

Lucian's voice trembled, incoherent with excitement.

"You're fucking clearly a monster wearing human skin!"

"Only half a month since initiation... half a month! With combat power like yours, I reckon even Master Mordo combined wouldn't be enough for you to beat with a single hand!"

Lucian finally reacted now.

No wonder big shots with their eyes higher than the top like Wong, Hamir, and even Kaecilius ran to this kid's dormitory every day.

This wasn't teaching an apprentice at all!

This was clearly hugging a golden thigh!

"Too crazy... simply unimaginable..."

Lucian's face flushed red, the whole person in a state of extreme agitation.

Although he didn't know how Raine had managed to pull it off.

Still, this was his fellow apprentice from the same cohort!

When he went out to brag to people in the future, he could just say, "Back in the day, I even took classes with the big shot who soloed the Mirror Dimension," which would be so fucking prestigious!

Seeing Raine's expression of I'm very helpless, but I don't want to speak.

Lucian took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and then switched to a flattering smile of I understand you completely.

"Raine, don't worry!"

Lucian patted his chest and promised solemnly.

"Since you want to lay low and develop, senior brother will definitely not let your secret out!"

"I know, peerless experts like you surely have your own unspeakable hardships."

"Rest assured, my mouth is notoriously tight. Even if a blade is held to my neck, I will never leak a single word!"

Looking at Lucian's eager expression as if he wanted to pour his heart out.

Raine only felt a wave of a headache.

You fucking didn't even let me say a single word, and you directly arranged the identity of a peerless expert for me?

What was even more crucial was...

As for the vows of an old slickster like Lucian, Raine didn't even believe the punctuation marks!

This guy was Kamar-Taj's acknowledged gossip king and loudmouth.

Counting on him to keep a secret?

Tomorrow morning, his legend of shattering Kamar-Taj with a single punch would probably be passed around in the cafeteria in eighty different versions!

Yet Raine couldn't be bothered to explain either.

Anyway, he hadn't exposed any trump cards back in the Mirror Dimension; at most, people would just harbor suspicions.

As long as he denied it to the end, what could anyone do to him?

"Senior brother, it really wasn't me who did it. I've been meditating the whole time," Raine made his final dying struggle.

"Understood, understood! I get it!"

Lucian was flushed with excitement, even having the impulse to kowtow and acknowledge Raine as his master on the spot.

"Actually, Raine."

Lucian moved a bit closer and persuaded earnestly.

"In Kamar-Taj, you really don't need to keep such a low profile."

"What matters here is that strength is supreme! The more freakish your performance, the more terrifying the resources the Sorcerer Supreme will give you."

"A towering tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind? Nonexistent! Here, your towering tree will only make everyone scramble to come enjoy the shade!"

Raine rolled his eyes helplessly.

He understood the logic.

Yet were the resources he currently held not top-tier enough?

The few top-ranking Masters of Kamar-Taj queued up every day to send him experience and skills.

What he needed most right now wasn't fame, but quietly leveling up the divine-tier skills in his hands to max level!

Once he became famous, who knew how many people would come looking to spar and seek guidance every day.

How could he happily idle and idle then?

"Senior Brother Lucian, just pretend you never saw today's matter, alright?" Raine said with a sincere tone.

"Hey... Your temper, you're truly a freak."

Lucian heavily patted Raine's shoulder with an expression of Leave it to me.

"Rest assured, heaven knows, earth knows, you know, and I know about this matter. There will never be a third person who knows!"

Raine watched Lucian's solemn-swearing back.

He couldn't help but massage his temples.

It was over.

This bastard would definitely run around talking about it everywhere.
