"I thought you would prefer your niece to take your place."
Before leaving, Zhu Yang said this to the principal.
The principal responded to her with an arrogant look: "The Supreme Witch must be the strongest witch of the time, precisely because she is my blood relative. If you can't do the best, it's just shameful to be unworthy."
This is a person who really implements his own set of rules, not only for others, but also for himself.
Zhu Yang smiled: "Then I can rest assured. I am also worried that you will have a disappointed expression on your face. To be honest, I am not happy to see embarrassment on the face of someone like you."
"It would be great if you were free and easy."
The principal looked at the back of the young Asian girl walking out and smiled, this is the one who is destined to control everything.
She could see it, just like herself back then. It seems that the abacus of her two brothers is probably going to be empty.
When Zhu Yang left the office, she met Yuffie who was waiting for her outside.
The other party glanced at her hand: "It seems that you have already submitted the application, and we will be competitors in the future."
She said this when it was at the table, and Zhu Yang told the principal when she wasn't making trouble in the restaurant.
It seems that he is looking forward to Zhu Yang joining the competition of the Supreme Witch.
Zhu Yang was a little interested: "You don't seem to have a negative response to the status of the supreme witch. I can see your longing for the principal and desire for that position."
"Why are you still taking the initiative to pull me in?"
Yuffie smiled and said, "My aunt and I have the same idea. If I'm not the strongest, I won't do that position for me."
It seems that she is used as a test stone, but Zhu Yang does not feel disgusted.
On the contrary, she herself is a similar person, but she has not yet entered the peaceful period of the game, and she is surrounded by ordinary people, and conflicts and ambitions generally exist in a more peaceful way.
The two went to the restaurant for dinner together. Except for the school banquet at noon, the meals at other times were not so uniform.
Not even the restaurant is together.
Like Zhu Yang, they belong to the higher school year, and the teaching, accommodation, dining and entertainment activities occupy the largest main building of the manor.
This building is also a circle smaller than the mansion Zhu Yang pried back to reality from the organizing committee, and it has all the necessary facilities.
There's even a private giant-screen movie theater and indoor gym and sauna.
Each student's room is large in size and has huge floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the estate.
The students really lived like a noble lady here. There were only twenty or thirty people in the classmate year for dinner, but everything was cleaner.
Because it was only at noon that Zhu Yang suffered a loss, Lena and the others did not dare to provoke her again.
However, it seems that the other party mobilized other students to stop talking to Zhu Yang, but Zhu Yang ignored it at all, and Yuffie was with her, which made the other party frustrated.
Even because of Yuffie's position, other classmates began to ignore her orders. After all, compared to Yuffie, Reina's influence was not enough in school.
Knowing that the next Supreme Witch will be selected this year, the girl has worked very hard since the beginning of the school year.
Even the girls in the lower grades are full of hope.
However, the number of pre-selected candidates is not released uniformly, but the magic announcement paper is posted in a prominent place in the school.
For each additional qualified pre-selector, there will be an additional name on it.
On the second day, all the girls gathered in front of the list to see the pre-selection list.
The pre-selection list this time is just the beginning, and the candidates are announced for the first time based on the performance of the girls in the previous semester.
Generally, there are not many such candidates, and they can usually be counted on one hand, because such people are often the impeccable talents in the school.
Many people would not expect to have a quota from the very beginning. This is equivalent to a recommended quota for a famous school in the real world. There are only two of them. Most people still know whether they are the leader of the school.
The one-month observation period after posting the list is the time for everyone to compete.
Because during this period, the school's tutors will carefully evaluate the comprehensive index of each college, and new names may be born on the list every day.
However, the first day is still worth looking forward to.
A few girls in Leina's group pushed aside the onlookers and stood at the top of the hanging list, waiting for the time to come.
Seeing her nervous, the surrounding attendants flattered: "Don't worry, there must be you."
"After all, Reina's excellence is obvious to all, and your great-grandmother is also a supreme witch."
"I guess the initial list this time is Yufiona and Reina."
As they were talking, names began to appear on the hanging parchment scroll projection list.
Everyone held their breath, even if they knew that it was impossible to have themselves, there was inevitably a subtle hope in their hearts.
First name: Yuna Oguli
"Mmmm! It's normal, Yuna is the only third genius in history who entered school before the age of ten. There must be her."
Second name: Yuffie Oguli
"According to the headmaster's own admission, Yuffie's strength is stronger than many teachers, and she can also rank in the top five in the entire witch group. This is not surprising."
"The next one must be Reina, congratulations."
Reina saw the third name that gradually began to appear, and the confident smile gradually came to her lips.
She thinks that this list is either only the Aoguli sisters, and if there is a third person, she will definitely not think twice.
But as the name became clearer, the curvature of the corners of her mouth stiffened, and the expression on her face became extremely hideous.
The people around me who were still touting just now stopped their voices in embarrassment, and even took a step back.
Because the name that appeared was actually two Chinese characters.
Although they don't know Chinese characters, there are less than five people of Asian descent in the whole school, and the other four are immigrants of several generations.
Only Zhu Yang, an exchange student, can take a seat with this name.
Witch schools are different from ordinary schools. The name of the witch itself is magical and binding.
That is to say, in this circle, anyone with contractual utility is expressed in their own words.
Reina turned her head and stared at Zhu Yang, who was sitting in the distance, drinking afternoon tea with Yuffie, and only casually glanced at Zhu Yang on the list.
Then he turned around, tried to calm his mind, and thought about the place the other party might have won because of his race and position.
Who knows if the sombre oriental wizards started mass protests this year
It doesn't matter, it's just one more person, as long as she is selected, it's just one more competitor.
But she stood in front of the list for five minutes, and no new names appeared on the floating list.
The onlookers have long left, either disappointed or clear, and even the followers who were holding her chose to stay away.
The witches that were first announced on the list were special, at least in the eyes of the last Supreme Witch, the principal, who really had the chance to become the successor.
Of course, there is no precedent for witches who have subsequently entered the list to become successors, but it is rare, accounting for less than 20% of the entire history.
And every Supreme Witch will have more or less feelings about her heir, so it's hard to go wrong.
Other witches can only fight for that small probability. Even if the hope is slim, it is still the dream of every witch to become the Supreme Witch.
Reina even reached out to touch the floating phantom parchment, but her hand passed through it, but there was nothing. The flexible response indicated that there was no malfunction.
She finally accepted the fact that she was not selected, then turned around abruptly and rushed towards Zhu Yang aggressively.
Raising his hand to lift Zhu Yang's table, he shouted, "You squeezed my spot, you insidious, cunning and dirty China—"
Just after uttering those two words, Reina let out a pained cry, the table she lifted up floated in the air, the coffee cups and delicate and fragile snacks even maintained a weightless balance in the air.
Then everything fell back to the ground quickly and smoothly, not even a drop of coffee was spilled.
I didn't see what Zhu Yang did at all, and she didn't even stop feeding the cake in her hand.
But Reina just lost her two palms out of thin air, and her two bare wrists were bleeding desperately.
It's also thanks to the witches who tear up and fight from time to time, and even many of the lectures are used to seeing blood, otherwise the ordinary girl group would have to be scared crazy by this scene.
Even so, Zhu Yang's traceless attack was still shocking.
Leina's face was twisted in pain as she hugged her wrist, and she saw Zhu Yang stand up and look down at her.
"Generally speaking, I won't raise a verbal conflict to a physical conflict. But I don't like those two words very much. The first time I smashed one of your eyes, this time I asked you to use two palms. It's just three-"
Zhu Yang approached her and spit out a chilling voice like a poisonous snake letter in her ear: "Next time, I promise that if the medical teacher wants to save you, it will take countless hours to retrieve your body."
"Understand?"
Reina looked at her in fear. If it was just a little bit of fuss, she really felt that death was so close to her now.
Not the usual kind of death that can be easily rescued, but a real, irreversible death.
The people around were cautious when they saw it, and at the same time they had to agree that the principal's choice really had her reasons.
The courage that was unrepentant with Reina and his gang in the restaurant before, and the courage to be reckless about Reina's family background, was a natural reaction when she learned that she was elected.
Everything is so out of place compared to the people around.
And if everyone just looked at Yuffie's face and didn't follow Reina's orders to exclude each other, then now it's based on Zhu Yang's existence.
The witch school is always respected by the strong, and the candidates are more noble than ordinary witches. This is the truth.
In the following time, no one bothered Zhu Yang again, but she herself devoted herself to studying hard like never before.
Especially after she learned that witches have two skills that are very useful to her, one is summoning, which can summon things from hell.
However, whether it is a soul or a demon that is summoned depends on the individual's ability, so this study requires a high degree of relativity and the stability of magic.
It should be a similar principle that the ancestor of vampires summoned the dragon before. After seeing the dragon, Zhu Yang yearned for the things of hell.
Although I haven't really seen it yet.
Another natural is the resurrection ability that brings the dead back to life.
Not to mention the summoning technique, Zhu Yang learned that the resurrection ability here is roughly classified into two steps.
One step is to summon the soul of the dead, and the other is to return the body to a healthy form, which is equivalent to the superposition of the two abilities.
Leaving the body aside for the time being, just by looking at the first step, you can see that witches are not unkillable.
There are also forms of death that leave the Healing Witch and Supreme Witch helpless.
For example, the most typical fire, it is said that the flames will completely destroy the witch's soul. Even if the body returns to a healthy state, how can it be resurrected without the soul
Of course, there are also ways to prevent people from resurrecting through curses, contracts, or complete destruction of corpses.
And natural aging and death are irresistible, so witches are not really free to play with life and death.
But for Zhu Yang, this is enough.
And she still has to do one more step, that is, how to make herself in the state of soul to save herself.
If it is just to resurrect others, as long as the death of the person is not too long, her time back is strictly speaking.
But that restriction is too big, far less convenient than the resurrection technique here, not to mention in the battle with others, if she is seriously injured or dead, how can she save herself when she cannot mobilize her mental power from the physical level
Everything points to one point, and that is the soul.
Although this concept has existed for a long time, even in the second game, players who died in the game were seen turning into ghosts.
But the soul involved here is not on the same level as that.
Zhu Yang thought that he had to get the Immortal Cultivation Field before he could truly observe his own soul, but he didn't expect that there would be signs here.
I wish the two subjects of Central School are progressing very quickly.
At first, she had similar abilities, and the affinity was very good. Before coming here, Pei Jiang, a successful practitioner, said that Zhu Yang himself had touched the soul level.
Therefore, Zhu Yang can instantly restore seriously injured creatures, resurrect dead animals, and grow larger and larger.
Until she experimented on herself in order to test what effect it could really have on herself.
First, he cut his own skin, suppressing the vampire's ability to recover, so that the wound could not be repaired instantly.
When the palm was attached, the scar immediately subsided, as clean as new, faster than a vampire's self-healing.
Then Zhu Yang was even more dissatisfied with this, until in the end she cut off one of her own arms.
Qigen cut off, just like the black-skinned player in the last game, such severe injuries from severed limbs are the most likely to affect the strength of the battlefield, and even lead to the failure of a game.
The black-skinned player had to waste a scarecrow because of this serious injury last time.
Zhu Yang did not use her severed arm to connect it. What she wanted to prevent was an attack where her limbs were destroyed.
The severed arm was placed on the table, and then a new one quickly grew out of the port. Zhu Yang stretched out his hand and moved without any stagnation.
In the event of death, you can't easily try accidents, and Zhu Yang is very satisfied with this ability.
But the question is where to put the chopped arm
The three children in the Lingquan space were about to explode. If it wasn't for Zhu Yang's actions, it was too late to stop them, and the strongest Long Long would have almost torn through the space and ran out.
Even after seeing her arms grow back, the three children were still jumping with anger inside.
Zhu Yang was very aggressive when he was experimenting just now, but now he doesn't dare to face his younger brothers and sons.
And the arm in the hand can't handle it either.
Just worrying about it, the phone rang again.
Zhu Yang's brain twitched, and she put her arm into the space with one hand. When the result was reflected, the three children were already crying while holding her arm.
She had no choice but to connect the phone first and listen to the Chinese speaking in a fluent voice.
"I received a notification from Dean Aoguli today that you have become a candidate for the Supreme Witch, and you have done a good job."
Zhu Yang glanced at the caller ID [Teacher Gu].
It seems that she is a witch teacher in China.
Zhu Yang was dealing with it when the other party said, "Everything is going according to plan. Your family expects a lot from you. Be careful, you know?"
Why doesn't this look like an exchange student, but a spy
Besides, in the wizarding world, is there any task for a witch to have priority over becoming the Supreme Witch
Even in terms of interests, no matter what they think, if Zhu Yang becomes the Supreme Witch, it will only maximize the interests.
But it turned out that she did underestimate the structure of the world.
It turns out that supernatural groups like witch schools are not the only ones.
In addition to witches, there are naturally wizards. Of course, these two are of the same species, so there is no surprise.
Wizards and witches have their powers all over the world, but this is the highest school.
In addition to wizards, the vampires, the old friends of the last dungeon, also exist, and they also have huge forces, as well as a werewolf organization that opposes vampires. Of course, these two groups are opposed to each other and are also opposed to wizards.
Although peacetime remains stable, there is occasional friction between individuals.
Then Zhu Yang actually heard that there are elves in this world.
"They are really a bunch of arrogant guys, and they don't even bother to live in the same world as humans. But there are still young people who often run out. Because they are beautiful, most of them will be discovered to be stars, except for a strange one."
A lower grade girl who is also Asian told Zhu Yangdao.
Zhu Yang was interested: "How do you say it?"
"The elves are naturally close to nature and are good at cultivating plants. After that person ran out, he became interested in growing marijuana. Later, the scale expanded and he is now the world's largest drug lord."
Zhu Yang: "… "
Tiger, completely subverted Zhu Yang's cognition of elves.
"Oh yes, this time Miao Jiang's witches will also come. I heard that the domestic wizards have a bad relationship with them, are you alright?"
How could Zhu Yang know
The reason it's talking about it now is because there's going to be a big gathering in the industry soon.
Similar special groups from all over the world will all come, and Zhu Yang, as the candidate for the next Supreme Witch, naturally has to go.
This kind of grand ceremony is a typical event-triggered dungeon, and the witch has given her a lot of surprises, so other groups will not let her down.
Zhu Yangting is looking forward to the arrival of the meeting. The meeting time will be after all the candidates for the Supreme Witch have come out and before the official start of the assessment.
During this period, Zhu Yang was like returning to his student days. No, student days were not so hard.
And within this month, in addition to their initial three people on the list, there are also girls who have been selected as candidates.
Reina got what she wanted, but she wasn't even the first name to be written down after that.
Because of this, her status on campus declined. In this direct and cruel competition, everyone realized that the witch's final achievement was not driven by her family's halo.
Of course, where there is competition, there is conspiracy.
Over the course of a month, there have been several incidents of conflict, framing, and even murder over opportunities and performance at the school.
The teachers were devastated by this, but the principal stayed on the sidelines and regarded it as part of the test.
It was all a little mess, until one morning, when breakfast was about to end, Yuna was not seen.
Although Yuffie had a cold relationship with her cousin at school, she, as a sister, would take the initiative to care about a lot of things for a child under ten years old.
But never showed a trace.
Seeing that she was a little anxious, Zhu Yang asked the servants in the restaurant without asking directly, "Has Yuna not woken up today? Or is she asking for leave?"
The servant looked around: "I don't know. Because Miss Yuna is still young, she has a special person to take care of her daily life. Before preparing breakfast, she saw that Sophia had passed by, but she hasn't come over yet."
Sophia is the maid who is responsible for serving Yuna's daily life, and she will wake Yuna up every day to dress her.
After all, Yuna herself is a lady from a famous family, and because her talent was discovered too early, she has been trained by her family to study witches, and she has no ability to take care of herself.
Zhu Yang tried to feel it with his mental power, and his face suddenly became a little strange.
Yuffie's intuition was a little bad, and she hurriedly stood up and ran to the bedroom floor.
Zhu Yang and people who have a good relationship with Yuffie in peacetime also followed after seeing this.
When I came to Yuna's room, the door of the other party's room was closed, and it was locked from the inside.
Yuffie hurriedly knocked on the door: "Yuna, open the door! Are you all okay?"
She said to Zhu Yang, "I can't hear the inner voice, I can't hear it."
Yuffie can capture a person's voice within 100 meters, if you listen carefully, it will be farther.
But at this time, just across a door, she couldn't hear the mental activity of any living person in the room.
At this moment, she wished that her ability failed, or that the two of them just went to the other end of the villa.
For example, Yuna's temperament, what if she saw a squirrel running down from the tree and chased after it
"I'm coming!" A girl opened Yuffie who didn't dare to violently destroy the door.
Using telekinesis to open the locked door, everyone entered the room.
Then I saw the bodies of Yuna and the maid lying on the ground. They fell in front of the dressing mirror, as if they had just dressed before they died.
But there is no trace of trauma on the body, just like a sudden coma.
"Their souls are gone," said one of the girls with excellent medical ability.
If the soul is missing, it means that it cannot be resurrected.
