Chapter 0061: Suppression
Magic spells of level three in all elements appeared one by one on the assessment platform.
When Huang Long’s slender figure stepped down from the platform, the assessment area remained dead silent—no one spoke, no one mocked; everyone instinctively stepped aside to make room for him.
Reck opened his mouth, wanting to call out to this “super genius” or “super failure,” but then closed it again.
The assessment platform remained unchanged by Huang Long’s arrival.
The gloating mentor beside Reck swallowed hard, as if a fish bone was stuck in his throat.
As Huang Long passed by that so-called super genius, Lei Yun, the favored prodigy, his face turned pale. The flattery he had received earlier now seemed like a cruel mockery.
A magician of level two in fire, wood, and water elements—was he really a super genius?
While Huang Long, who possessed magic spells of level three in all elements, was labeled a super failure?
Even after Huang Long’s back disappeared for a long time, Lei Yun still stood there, unaware of anything.
Under the complicated and bewildered gazes of everyone, Huang Long, this super genius, rode away on his pet ox, with the beautiful and enchanting maid following closely behind.
It wasn’t until Huang Long was out of sight that the freshmen began to whisper among themselves.
“See? I told you he’s a super genius. Tsk tsk, a super genius is indeed a super genius. Who would have thought that while we’re not even at level one yet, he’s already at level three!” The freshman spoke with utter admiration, the mocking expression on his face long gone.
“That’s right! And he’s at level three in all elements—that’s terrifying!” Another girl exclaimed, her eyes sparkling.
“Strange. I’ve never seen him attend a single class. Didn’t he spend two months in the library? Maybe a super genius really doesn’t need to train at all!”
“I think so too. If he trained a little, he might already be at level four in all elements!”
Chatter continued nonstop throughout the freshman assessment area.
Lei Yun listened to the surrounding discussions and left silently.
Amidst the lively chatter, no one noticed the departure of this “super genius.”
It wasn’t long before news spread that Huang Long, the so-called “super genius” and “super failure,” had demonstrated the strength of a magician of level three in all elements during the grade assessment—once again, like a powerful forbidden spell, it sent shockwaves throughout Shenfeng Academy!
Almost everyone was stunned for a long time after hearing this news, unable to react.
What! That super genius who spent two months flipping through books in the library is now a third-level mage—across all schools!
Storms once again swept through the Divine Wind Academy.
All the mockery, sighs, and schadenfreude vanished, replaced by admiration, disbelief, and worship.
When Yang Zhen, Ren Zhongqing, Ouyang Hai, and Yu Qi heard this news from Tang Wudi, they too were speechless for a long time.
“That kid, just flipping through books and playing around for a few months, and yet he’s already a third-level mage—across all schools!” After a while, Yang Zhen finally spoke, his expression gloomy.
Yu Qi also gave a bitter smile: “It seems he didn’t join us because he thought we weren’t good enough.”
Back then, they thought Huang Long’s refusal was just childish ignorance, but now it seems not so.
Tang Wudi and Ren Zhongqing wanted to argue, but in the end, they stayed silent.
Because facts are facts.
“If this kid can maintain this rate of progress, he might reach the Holy Realm by around thirty!” Ren Zhongqing said with a complex expression.
The conference hall fell into silence.
A Holy Realm at thirty! Such a thing had never happened in the entire history of the Hengyuan Continent!
“It’s a Holy Realm across all schools!” Yu Qi said slowly.
Earlier, Ren Zhongqing avoided using the phrase “across all schools,” but everyone knew what he meant. Hearing Yu Qi say it made their hearts pound.
A Holy Realm master at thirty across all schools! Just imagine how terrifying that would be.
“In a few years, the major forces on the Hengyuan Continent won’t be able to stay calm!” Tang Wudi implied.
With Huang Long’s monstrous talent, once he grows up in a few years, the major forces on the Hengyuan Continent will surely fight over him.
It’s easy to imagine that once this news spreads, Huang Long will become the focus of all these forces. Right now, he’s already extremely sought after.
Of course, it’s not ruled out that some forces might try to suppress this super genius.
For example, the Huang family’s eternal rivals—theHill family of the Lutong Kingdom.
During Huang Long’s annual assessment, Du Fei was holding her swollen face from her sister Du Meng, shouting fiercely, “When I get back to the arena, I’m going to torture that scumbag before killing him!”
But as soon as she said that, she heard the results of Huang Long’s annual assessment.
“What? A third-level mage across all schools!” Du Fei was shocked upon hearing this news, followed by a hint of panic on her face.
Du Meng’s expression also changed drastically.
Originally, she hadn’t taken Huang Long, that little brat, seriously, but now she could truly sense the threat he posed to theHill family. If left to grow unchecked, the fate of theHill family was predictable.
“It’s just a third-level mage—why are you panicking?” Du Meng snapped at her younger brother, who looked terrified.
Hearing his sister’s rebuke, Du Fei snapped back to reality and stammered in confusion, “Sis, that Huang Long—he’s actually a third-level mage!” He had thought the tournament back in the Lu Tong Kingdom at the end of the year would be a formality; he could easily defeat his opponent and do as he pleased. But now it turned out the opponent was a third-level mage who could use all magic styles. This made it hard for him to accept and left him panicked.
A third-level mage—though still below him at the peak of fourth level, it wasn’t someone he could casually defeat.
“All magic styles are just fancy talk. He’s just a kid. Third level is still third level. Do you really think he can beat you, a mage at the peak of fourth level?” Du Meng’s face turned cold.
Only then did Du Fei calm down a bit. Indeed, it was almost impossible. The gap between third level and the peak of fourth level was roughly two levels. Even if the opponent was a third-level mage now, the outcome wouldn’t change.
“You must kill this Huang Long in this tournament. No mistakes allowed—use any method necessary!” Du Meng’s tone was icy.
Huang Long had to die!
With a fierce expression, Du Fei said, “Hehe, don’t worry, sis. He won’t make it through this year. On the arena, I’ll personally tear him to pieces!”
……
After the final exams and year-end assessments, it was time for holidays. Another semester had passed, and it was time to head home. As for the duel with Du family’s brat, Huang Long hadn’t taken it seriously at all.
For Huang Long, only those strong enough to reach the mid-tier of the Holy Land posed a real threat.
The peak of fourth level? That was Huang Long’s strength from before he was three years old.
