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

“Mei Linde, you’ve crossed the line this time.”

After the crowd of descending wizard consciousnesses was easily handled by Mei Linde, a figure echoed above Mo Nuo Peng City with a hint of indignation.

“You’ve learned to be smart, none of you descending with your true bodies anymore. Or do you think I don’t have the ability to go to your Wizard Towers and drag you out?”

Mei Linde let out a soft snort, not responding directly to the question, but continuing to keep those wizard consciousnesses imprisoned by her side.

If these wizards were willing to abandon these avatars of descending consciousness, then Mei Linde would have no way to deal with them; otherwise, she truly would have to go to the Wizard Towers to drag them out, as she just said.

But these wizards could not bear to do so.

These descending consciousnesses were no ordinary avatars.

If lost, the wizards themselves would suffer a massive backlash and bear irreparable losses of power.

Compared to the death of their true bodies, these avatars merely allowed them to keep their lives.

“If you want to come alone as a lone witch, then come and try.”

“Pfft… you actually have the face to say such words?”

Mei Linde was amused by the other party.

She naturally wouldn’t be so foolish.

If it weren’t for the current situation, she would have gone over to give the other party a slap before leaving regardless of the cost.

It was just that the current situation did not allow her to be so willful; what’s more, she was already an Academy Head and needed to be responsible for the mentors and students under her.

“Humph! If you don’t dare, just say it directly.”

The wizard side retorted toughly.

If one didn’t know what he had said before, they might think he was very impressive.

“Since you, Mei Linde, have come personally this time, we of the Wizard Academy will give you this face. But now, immediately, right this instant! Take your precious students and mentors and get the hell out!”

Finally, after delivering the harsh words, the Wizard Academy side also actively offered a step down.

And this was currently the best ending for both sides.

“You are making things difficult for me. A witch’s advancement ritual is not something that can be moved around casually just because of one sentence from you.”

Mei Linde’s gaze remained fixed on the silhouette of the girl currently emitting an unstable aura.

Those characteristics were undoubtedly the posture after advancing to Transcendent.

The pressure originating from the Transcendent was not yet stable; this was a sight belonging to consciousness or the heart not yet having completed its metamorphosis and mastery.

A normal witch advancement was not supposed to be this troublesome, nor would it cause such a huge commotion.

Thinking of this, Mei Linde looked at the Bai Yu on the side.

The one before her was a typical case who had advanced to Transcendent in the Expansion Realm without saying a word.

Therefore, for that unconscious girl to advance to Transcendent, the process must have been a convoluted one.

Precisely because of this reality, Mei Linde also really wanted to take this step down, but the actual situation truly did not allow it.

“What do you mean? Do you intend to continue occupying this place and adding to the chaos!”

“Is it not allowed to borrow the place for a bit? Once this child’s advancement is over, we will leave. What is there to be uneasy about?”

“Easier said than done…”

The Wizard Academy side was practically about to explode with rage.

What else was there to say?

Not uneasy?

These witches being here alone was trouble!

They had to keep their eyes on these witches at all times.

It was like someone carrying a three-meter-long greatsword on the street saying they were just taking a stroll; no normal person would believe it.

“Since you think it’s not easy, then let me find something for you to do.”

Mei Linde naturally knew that the matter wouldn’t settle if she stayed here, so she prepared to change the topic.

Then, she gestured with her hand toward the several descending wizard consciousnesses nearby and spoke: “Then let us talk about the ransom for these fellows.”

“Ransom?”

Upon hearing this word, even without seeing the wizard’s true body, the people present seemed to be able to imagine the scene of veins popping on the other party’s forehead.

“Mei Linde! You should get things clear! It was your witches who came to our wizard territory to run wild and cause trouble. You captured our wizards on our turf, and you’re asking me for ransom?!”

“You’ve got the order wrong. It was your Transcendent Wizards who first took action against our students and assistants, and our witch mentors fought back! If it weren’t for your Transcendents interfering first, this would have been a small-scale squabble between students or even ordinary people!”

Mei Linde completely ignored what the other party said, directly insisting that the Transcendents moved first; she intended to set the nature of this incident in stone.

“See for yourself, is this a small-scale squabble! Causing such a huge commotion is a small squabble? You’ve nearly destroyed this Mo Nuo Peng City! Do you know how many resources are required for reconstruction!”

“The one who caused such a huge commotion was the internal strife of the families in Mo Nuo Peng City, wasn’t it? Do you really think I just arrived and don’t know the sequence of events?”

Mei Linde directly pulled out the Earth Vein Appraisal Spell.

The summary of information presented by the earth veins replayed the scenes, instantly rendering the group of wizards speechless.

“Our assistants and mentors merely came to visit a former assistant who was persuaded to withdraw. The families around your Wizard Academy are quite powerful indeed. To surround and capture a retired assistant, you mobilized the Security Bureau and armed forces of the entire city. Are you not afraid that one day a family will tear down your Wizard Academy’s Wizard Towers?”

When Mei Linde said these words, her tone was extremely sarcastic and cynical, although what she said was indeed the truth to some extent.

And the last sentence directly pinned a label on the secular family forces while incidentally insulting the Wizard Academy.

Even if the families couldn’t possibly achieve such a thing, the Wizard Academy’s suppression of the families was certain.

Furthermore, the Hawthorne Family, which had run right into the muzzle, would absolutely be the first to be sacrificed.

Even if this matter was first provoked by the witch side, in principle, it was the Wizard Academy that stepped over the line.

Thus, after another round of arguments, the result was the Wizard Academy being ridiculed by Mei Linde to the point of wanting to resort to violence.

But resorting to violence was bad for both sides, so everyone was very restrained; otherwise, they wouldn’t have been in this war of words until now.

In the end, the outcome was that the few wizards captured by Mei Linde would pay their own ransoms to buy themselves back.

Those who didn’t want to redeem themselves could commit suicide if they liked.

In short, every time they faced off against witches, they were always the ones left mentally exhausted.

It was already good enough that this time didn’t harm the academy’s interests.

Who told those few wizards to act without authorization?

If they had successfully killed that little witch, it would be one thing, but since the operation failed, they had to bear the consequences!

Whatever grievances they had, they could go back and summarize them slowly.

In short, the matter seemingly ended like this.

It was much better than the last time they were swindled by the Witch Academy and had to pay out a world fragment.

Even though that world fragment belonged to the category with the lowest value, the wizards still felt heart-wrenched even thinking back on it now.

And I, who had not participated in this argument all along, subconsciously took a step back at this moment.

Because at this time, April had reached the final step of the Great Project of the Soul, the sublimation of the soul.

Likewise, this was the step I was most concerned with!

That was the shaping of the soul!

This metamorphosis directly concerned the most critical part of my Soul Depiction technique.

As the fluctuations originating from her life essence gradually became intense, I understood that April was starting to wake up from “her world.”

No, it should be called returning from a “rebirth”!

The April of thereafter would thoroughly bid farewell to her past self and become a brand new Transcendent Witch!

Perhaps the family rumors were right once more; a witch after advancing to Transcendent was no longer the tribesperson of the past.

But for April to walk to this step… wasn’t it the family’s own doing?

“Soul sublimation… yes, this is it…”

I watched April as she gradually woke up, and couldn’t help but let out a sound.

As long as I knew this single process and summarized that kind of soul sublimation ritual, then this would be the final piece of the puzzle for the Soul Depiction technique!

But the extreme pressure brought by April’s initial entry into the Transcendent at this moment similarly brought immense pressure to me.

If it were the suppression of a non-transcendent life level from before, I could contend with it by relying on body cultivation strength.

But once reaching this qualitative change of the Transcendent, it was as if it directly crossed into another level and brought me an absolute dimensionality reduction strike!

Even as I contended with it using body cultivation strength and domain order, April’s unintentional and uncontrolled pressure brought me great trouble.

And at this time, Big Sis Bai also took action to shield me slightly.

“Mhm? It’s you? I recognize you.”

The first person April saw upon gradually waking up was naturally the person directly in front of her—me.

Even though she only spoke a single sentence, I found that the current April was already completely different from the past.

Every gesture and movement even made me lose the confidence I had earlier to manipulate the direction of her life at will.

This was April’s most intuitive transformation—a change of concept and confidence from the bottom of her heart.

An existence of this level made me feel uncomfortable all over even just by making eye contact.

But when April’s gaze saw Academy Head Mei and saw the Transcendent wizard consciousnesses confronting her, she still inevitably fell into her past cognitions for a moment.

Of course, it was mostly the sense of loss and confusion regarding the current situation.

“What happened?”

Facing such a complex situation, April still spoke and asked a question.

“Oh? You’re awake already? In short, congratulations on becoming a member of the big witch family. If I remember correctly, you are called April, right?”

Mei Linde felt a wave of joy upon seeing April wake up.

At least this way, they could exit the stage directly and wouldn’t have to bicker with those wizards anymore.

“In short, you don’t need to worry about the current matters. Just leave everything to me, your Academy Head. Your Big Sis Mei is very reliable.”

The current Mei Linde naturally didn’t mind showing off her presence before a new sister.

She even changed her self-address to “Big Sis Mei.”

It had to be said that the sense of security from the Academy Head was quite substantial.

But just when all the people and witches thought this matter was over, an accident occurred once more at this juncture.

“Damn it… Mei Linde, what does your Witch Academy mean! While you’re here attracting our attention, you sent another group of witches to cause trouble in our Wizard Academy?!”

“What?”

Mei Linde, who was originally prepared to escort Xiao Han away, was instantly stunned by the wizard’s words.

Because this was truly something that exceeded her expectations.

“Speak clearly. We haven’t done anything wrong. Is your Wizard Academy trying to make this never-ending!”

Mei Linde’s aura exploded directly as she went head-to-head with the wizard.

But seeing that the other party’s emotion didn’t seem to be an act, Mei Linde also felt a wave of foreboding.

“Bastards, it’s you witches. You witches actually ran to our Wizard Academy to cause trouble. Do you want to start an Academy War!”

“I guarantee in the name of the Academy Head of the Witch Academy that I have arranged no plans to raid your Wizard Academy. Or do you think at such a juncture, our Witch Academy are the type of witches who like to mess around?”

Mei Linde questioned back.

Although the Witch Academy indeed disliked these fellows and had the ambition to drive them out of the Main World, right now was definitely not the time to look for extra trouble.

“Then who is this?!”

That wizard indignantly projected a sorcery image.

It was exactly what was currently happening at the Wizard Academy.

Setting aside those towering structures of Wizard Towers and the ring-shaped belt academy architecture, a female silhouette could indeed be seen in the center of the image.

And more than one person on the scene recognized this silhouette.

Even I recognized exactly who this silhouette was.

That was the street-wanderer currently in the Witch Academy—the Anti-Witch, Cheryl.

“It’s her?”

Seeing this silhouette, even Mei Linde lost her previous confidence, leaving only a headache.

“You recognize her after all!”

“I do recognize her, but I want to state one point: this fellow is not a witch of our Witch Academy.”

“Who the f*ck are you kidding! You’ve admitted she is a witch; how could she not be from your Witch Academy!”

At this moment, this Transcendent Wizard was practically about to explode with rage.

This was no longer as simple as just being played.

Did they truly think their Wizard Academy had no temper!

“She is an Anti-Witch. You know what kind of conduct an Anti-Witch has, right? That fellow won’t even listen to me. I’m having a headache too.”

“What?! An Anti-Witch?”

Upon hearing this title, this wizard’s breathing instantly stalled, even forcibly stifling his previous violent emotions.

“I don’t care! Hurry up and invite this pest witch away!”

At this moment, the wizard’s expression changed multiple times in an instant—either conflicted or indignant—but ultimately he vented his anger on Mei Linde.

Because he was very clear that he had to pull the Witch Academy completely into the water; otherwise, even if Mei Linde looked like she had a helpless face, who knows how happy she was in her heart!

The one the Anti-Witch was harming was their Wizard Academy!

“If you don’t go and drive that fellow away, then we will launch an Academy War! At the worst, we’ll all go down together!”

“Calm down. The Main World has been peaceful for so long. Must things be pushed to this point?”

Mei Linde also hurriedly pacified the other party’s emotions.

Right now was not yet the time to flip the table.

“An Anti-Witch’s actions are bizarre; she doesn’t even care if they are fellow witches. How about this… I will accompany you to the Wizard Academy to resolve this matter?”

“……Fine.”

The wizard gritted his teeth and finally squeezed out this one word.

But even so, as if thinking of something, he spoke again to supplement:

“But before that, a non-aggression Witch’s Contract must be signed! Who knows if you are in collusion……”

“Fine… anyway, it’s your time being wasted. You draft the contract content. I’ll send my students back first.”

“No! At most you can send an avatar. Your true body must stay behind. Otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll just run off like that!”
