Is It Weird for a Guy to Apply to a Witch School?

Chapter 358: The Arrival of the Transcendent Academy Mentors

”She’s a madman.”

”She’s a fool who doesn’t know what’s good for her...”

After those people heard my words, while letting out a long sigh of relief, they also did not forget to mock me to show off their own sense of superiority.

They selectively ignored the gap in combat power at this moment, comforting themselves that this was just in a dream.

But the more a person lacked in this aspect, the more they would emphasize the importance of the identity of a Child of Destiny.

They showed the ugliness of human nature with their practical actions.

But at this moment, I didn’t care what these people said.

I only had one thing in my eyes, and that was to destroy this Seed of Destiny!

At this moment, those people who were still talking idly as if it had nothing to do with them, no longer had the chance to gossip leisurely here.

Then, the entire underground city in the dream once again experienced a cataclysmic change like the end of the world.

The earth cracked, the dome shattered.

Any visible creation, at this moment, became a weapon that I could use in the dream.

They were controlled by me in the Dream Rewrite Spell, shattered by me, and reshaped by me.

The dream at this moment was no longer an orderly replica of reality, but became dilapidated, strange, and dangerous in my hands, just like the initial chaotic dream world.

It was precisely such a blow that gathered all my strength and the imagination of this moment, condensed into a point, and pointed in one direction.

When this blow was completely charged, I did not hesitate any longer and pushed this blow towards the Seed of Destiny.

Boom—!

As such an explosion erupted again in the dream, my expression was calmer than I had expected.

There seemed to be an inexplicable emptiness in my heart.

Was my mission completed?

Was my plan over?

Not yet.

It was just that these successive accidents had consumed a lot of my mental energy.

I wouldn’t be so weary even if I studied in the library for a whole day.

Just now, I had witnessed with my own eyes the Seed of Destiny completely shattering the moment it came into contact with my blow.

It was so simple, as if all of this didn’t require me to attack with such an exaggerated means, and it even seemed as if I could destroy it with a Fireball spell.

Was it simply the determination of my refusal that I showed?

I don’t know, and I have no way of knowing.

I only know that at this moment, my pupils seemed to be reflecting a golden brilliance.

Because when the Seed of Destiny shattered, the Destiny inside it once again scattered out.

At this moment, everyone truly saw the golden color that filled the entire dome.

That was the protection of Destiny that had originally belonged to Ninglan New City.

At this time, the Destiny filled the entire underground city, as if it had regained its freedom and was drifting randomly.

But I saw it very clearly, because this piece of Destiny would belong to the one who deserved it.

And at this moment, Tan Han was staring at all this in a daze.

Just now, she had been suddenly called out.

She had witnessed the whole process of that Seed of Destiny being completely shattered by an absolute force.

And this was the answer that the Little Han in her eyes had given her, and also the revelation for her.

At least before this moment, she had never thought that she could actually say no to what fate had given her so directly.

She had the thought of imitating in that instant, but she also had reservations when she was about to act, afraid of failure, fearing futility, and repeatedly hesitating... The other party had given her a vivid lesson.

And what did she learn?

She knew that she had learned nothing.

She only saw her own timidity, her own hesitation, and her own fear!

Wasn’t this learning nothing?

No, she knew that she had learned, but she just hadn’t learned it well.

But she had found the goal of her own learning.

She knew that once she overcame these difficulties, she could also do it with such ease.

Even if she couldn’t do the same thing, she could also accept this fate with a smile.

The Destiny was slowly settling in a certain corner.

***

That was where Ninglan Qiuyue, who had not yet gone to sleep, was.

At this moment, she was also an ordinary person.

According to the time, it was already late at night, but at this time, there were too many people who couldn’t sleep.

They were afraid that this closing of their eyes would be the last time they saw this world.

”It’s okay. Everything will get better. We will take the people from the Earth Patrol Team to maintain your safety and fight to the death to protect you until the last moment.”

And at this time, a low and deep explosion sounded again.

”What happened again?”

”Report, no additional damage to the urban area has been found in front. It is preliminarily presumed to be a battle within the dream. The specific situation is unknown...”

”What about that huge monster?”

Ninglan Qiuyue got up and prepared to leave this place, continuing to ask.

”That monster has not expanded the disaster area at present. The situation is unknown...”

”Still unknown...”

Ninglan Qiuyue suddenly hammered the wall, making a muffled sound.

This feeling of being at the mercy of fate was simply terrible.

And... now, Ninglan New City on the surface must have also had a beast tide and an energy tide... this was really one misfortune after another.

At this moment, Ninglan Qiuyue finally discovered that even Ninglan New City, which had stood for a thousand years, was also powerless at this moment.

She hated, hated why Ninglan New City was so weak, hated why she was so weak.

If she could master spells like Teacher Little Han and have great power, she could protect the entire Ninglan New City with her own strength.

Unfortunately, there were no ifs in all of this.

Just as Ninglan Qiuyue had sorted out her emotions and was preparing to take the people from the Earth Patrol Team to another disaster-stricken settlement area, another strange movement in the underground city instantly made Ninglan Qiuyue’s face change drastically.

”What is this again?!”

Ninglan Qiuyue looked at the spatial tunnel that had been opened in the underground city, her face full of despair.

Not long ago, after a passage like this was opened, such a terrible monster came in.

Now that so many were opened at once, wouldn’t this be the end of the underground city?

What about Ninglan New City on the surface?

Please don’t let anything happen!

And just as Ninglan Qiuyue was worrying, that wisp of Destiny accumulated in her body bit by bit... gradually forming the phantom of a shattered Seed of Destiny...

And just as she was anxious, a figure blocked her path.

She subconsciously looked up at this figure.

It was a big sister she had never seen before.

She wore a gorgeous robe that was not in the style of Ninglan New City, and also that eye-catching large-brimmed hat... such a mature big sister immediately brought her great pressure.

”You... who are you!”

***

And I, who was at the center of the chaos, frowned, because at this moment, those spatial tunnels that had suddenly appeared, accidents had happened one after another.

But my energy was not infinite... Could it be that the Abyssal Demons were preparing to formally declare war and start a full-scale attack on the main world?

Just as I thought that countless monsters like the demon before would drill out of those spatial tunnels and sweep through the entire underground city, a noisy sound suddenly rang out.

Countless small, dark, and ugly monsters were poured out from the spatial tunnels in the sky like garbage.

”What are these... little demons?”

But no one gave me an answer.

They were like a plague of locusts.

Even if their strength was weak, they were endless.

I looked at the Earth Vein chains that had not yet been severed, and then at the disaster that the underground city was facing.

I was struggling with whether to create a body and return to reality to support them.

And at this moment, a huge hand phantom suddenly appeared.

The clenched fist suddenly shattered one of the spatial tunnels.

The little demons that followed were also turned into dust.

In the next moment, a figure followed closely behind and appeared in front of everyone by shattering the space.

”Men... mentor!”

As someone in the crowd shouted out, everyone was stunned for a moment.

Then, several figures followed closely behind.

”This is...”

Seeing this scene, even I was very surprised.

A mentor from a transcendent academy had actually intervened!

This struggle for Destiny was clearly not completely over yet, and the Nightmare Demons had not been completely cleared out.

As more and more mentors came here, I was more and more convinced that many transcendent academies had intervened in this.

And this was also a signal, a signal to end this so hastily.

Could it be that some accident had happened?

Or was it because of... what I had just done, that they were worried and couldn’t let the script develop like this anymore?

Just as I was curious, I turned around and almost bumped into a figure.

My first reaction was that there was a person standing behind me, and I hadn’t even noticed!

But when I looked up, it was the Academy Head... oh then it’s fine.

”Academy Head, this is...”

”It’s ending early.”

”But... those Destinies haven’t...”

”Those Destinies already have an owner. You don’t have to worry about this. You should worry about yourself.”

”Myself?”

I looked at the Academy Head in confusion.

Did I have anything to worry about?

Could it be that I had unintentionally done something and caused big trouble?

”I give you a Resurrection Spell, and you dare to use it like this, right?”

”Hmm? Um... er... wasn’t it the Academy Head who wanted me to use it like this?”

I looked at the Academy Head awkwardly.

I thought all of this was within the Academy Head’s expectations...

”I never said anything. Even if you’re mad, there has to be a limit. Do you understand? If you keep courting death like this, you’ll play yourself to death sooner or later.”

”I know I was wrong, Academy Head.”

Faced with the Academy Head’s teaching, I directly bowed my head and admitted my mistake.

This was called accepting with an open mind.

As for whether I would change or not, that depended on my mood.

”You little one are quick to apologize. Sigh I don’t think there’s anything wrong with your fearlessness. I just hope that you will be responsible for every decision you make. You haven’t reached the level where you can recklessly try any unknown things.”

”Yes, yes! I understand!”

I quickly nodded, but then seemed to think of something.

”Um... Academy Head... my Earth Vein chains... haven’t...”

”This is not urgent. I never intended for you to sever it yourself.”

”Huh? But didn’t the Academy Head say that I could theoretically do it?”

”Do you not understand ’theoretically’? ’Theoretically’ means that you can’t do it in reality. And... you little one have attracted the world consciousness. It’s even more impossible for you to sever the Earth Vein chains with your own strength.”

”This... alright...”

Hearing the Academy Head’s explanation, I had to temporarily put this thought aside.

”Don’t be discouraged. I will help you.”

”But... I also didn’t... in this script node...”

Just as I wanted to continue speaking, I suddenly reacted.

There were so many people here.

Was I just going to chat with the Academy Head about this so openly?

But when my gaze swept around, I found that there were not many people whose eyes were on me.

Instead, there were many mentors from other transcendent academies who had come here.

The students of the corresponding academies all gathered around, because only in front of their mentors could they get some sense of security.

Even if they now knew the so-called truth, so what?

Not to mention whether the words of the enemy could be believed, whether it was to sow discord.

You know, this was a special situation.

To have a little temper with the mentor here?

Wasn’t that just looking for trouble?

No one here was a fool.

”It’s okay. Feel free to talk. They can’t see us. You were just trying to say... that you messed everything up at this script node?”

”Yes...”

I lowered my head and replied softly.

Knowing the truth, I had so many ways to stop those Nightmare Demons from saying the so-called truth, but I was indifferent.

”Don’t take all the trouble on yourself. You didn’t do anything wrong during this period,” at this moment, the Academy Head reached out her hand and touched my head through reality and the dream, as a form of comfort.

Actually, there was one more sentence she didn’t say.

The surprises the other party had brought during this period were too many.

It had even given many of the Transcendent Witches who were watching the scene new inspiration, and they had a deeper understanding of the exploration of the dream.

Even many witches joked that when they published their academic papers or articles later, they would have to add Yang Yuehan’s name as an author.

If the things these guys wrote did not have a full plagiarism check in the Witch World’s Great Library, then it was very likely to be included.

After all, the exploration of the dream domain was a brand new field, especially the research under the special environment of the dream invading reality.

”Let’s just turn the page on this matter,” the Academy Head said softly.

Thus, this journey to Ninglan New City was considered a ”perfect” end.

After all, when those mentors arrived, it was destined to put an end to all this.

Before long, they disappeared from the dream one by one and left Ninglan New City.

And in the main world’s transcendent academies, those students who had been lying down for a long time because of the ”Sleeping Curse” finally began to slowly wake up.

But most of them, after their consciousness returned to their bodies, seamlessly connected to a deep sleep.

After all, a good sleep could shallowly make up for the energy consumption during this period.

”Now, they have all gone back. So you... what are you going to do?”

At this moment, the Academy Head’s gaze turned here.

With a wave of her hand, a piece of white crystal on the ground in the distance appeared in her hand.

It was the so-called extraordinary item that the first City Lord’s Seed of Destiny had turned into.

”I... er... I’ll go back too?”

”Then what about your body? You used the dream to carry your soul. I have to say, you’re really not afraid of death.”

”Um, this was also forced by the situation... I also wanted to rely on my own strength to... in short, I’m sorry!”

”You should change your habit of always saying sorry first. A strong person doesn’t need to apologize to anyone. And your idea is not wrong.”

”Alright...”

Since my idea was not wrong, then the catchphrase of ”sorry” would not be changed for the time being... My gaze was on the extraordinary item in the Academy Head’s hand.

If I remembered correctly, I seemed to have promised that first City Lord to hand this over to that Ninglan Qiuyue.

”What, you’re staring at this. Are you curious about what an extraordinary item is?”

”Yes, yes!”

I immediately nodded.

I didn’t have time to ask the Nightmare Demon what an extraordinary item was before.

It wasn’t too late to ask the Academy Head now.

”An extraordinary item is something with transcendent power that is formed by a coincidence. It can be any known or unknown thing, and can even be an existence without a specific shape, or even a concept or behavior.”

”This... is a miracle completed by the first City Lord of Ninglan. The formation of an extraordinary item with a Seed of Destiny as a medium. At that time, the Ninglan City Lord did not know the specific name of Destiny, but he had seen through the concept of the existence of Destiny on his own, and finally figured out the crude method of using Destiny on his own. At the end of his life, he was just holding the purest thought, wanting to pass on this power. The ritual responded to his expectation...”

”...”

At this moment, I was just listening quietly, without interrupting.

Whether this was something the Academy Head had witnessed herself, or the past she had deduced through the extraordinary item, this was indeed a miracle worth singing about.

”Then... the first City Lord, can he still be resurrected?”

”Theoretically, yes.”

”Is it ’theoretically’ again?”

”Yes, because his soul-substance still remains. But he has become a part of the extraordinary item. To resurrect him, you need to fight against the ritual of the extraordinary item. So everything is just theoretically feasible,” the Academy Head patiently explained to me.

”Let’s go...”

”Yes, okay. Um... where are we going?”

”Didn’t you promise this first City Lord to hand this over to that young girl, Ninglan Qiuyue?”

”The Academy Head also knows about this...”

”Of course. For most of the time, we have been paying attention to you. And... if everything goes smoothly, Ninglan Qiuyue will also be a Child of Destiny.”

”Huh? Impossible! I had seen before that she didn’t... could it be!”

I quickly thought of a possibility.

”Yes, it’s probably as you think. Since you didn’t appreciate the world consciousness’s favor, then it will pick another one. But seriously, you dare to provoke the world consciousness. You’re really something.”

”Um, this shouldn’t matter, right? How could the world consciousness... with a small character like me...”

Being told this by the Academy Head, I was now a little scared.

”Who knows? But it doesn’t matter anymore. After all, you’re going to sever the Earth Vein chains. The world consciousness won’t give you a good face.”

”Oh, by the way, a digression. Do you know the other reason why only by being promoted to a transcendent can one sever the Earth Vein chains?”

”The other reason? I don’t know...”

I looked at the Academy Head with clear eyes and said bluntly.

”Because a non-transcendent level of life entering the world will be rejected by the world consciousness. Once you sever the Earth Vein chains, then you are essentially no longer a person of this world. Even if you were born, grew up, and became strong in this world, you will not be recognized by the world consciousness.”

”Er...”

”So the world consciousness will instinctively reject outsiders, just like those Nightmare Demons, that Blackstone Troll. If they forcefully stay in the main world, they will be very unlucky. This is the so-called curse of misfortune imposed by the world consciousness. Only when the life level reaches the transcendent can one ignore this curse, or if you take the initiative to withdraw from the main world, this curse will slowly dissipate.”

”Huh?!”
