She's the youngest mage to make it to year 7 at the prestigious Coltriss Academy in over a generation.

Now in the final term of her final year, Eleanor Agnicyan must prove she is worthy of graduation by overcoming the final challenge every student must face to earn their staff- traversing the deadly Wandering Halls of the Magebane while racing against every other student in her class to reach the end first.

The challenge stands to push her magical abilities and problem-solving skills to the limit. One wrong move could be her last. And in the race to magehood, the non-living challenges are the least of one's problems.

After a talent measurement test, Adam found out he is the only "normal man" in a society of superhumans. Coming from school heartbroken, he found a mercenary threatening his mom for money. To save her he had no choice but to kill him. Unexpectedly, the boy gained the ability to eat dead people’s shadow.  From that day onwards, his ordinary life would never be the same!

Standing in front of the mega entrance hall, she took several deep breaths with her eyes closed tightly and thanked to this therapy, her tension muscles began to relax and her body was no longer as rigid as before. Calmness took over her anxious heart and her mind exceptionally was at peace. She then moved her right foot closer to the door and slowly pushed it only to reveal the glamorous decoration inside the hall with at least hundred people broken into several groups chattering to each other happily. At first her presence was unknown but in a spilt second she let her body fully trapped inside this huge hall, she had surprised everyone there with her charismatic and yet elegant appearance. She managed to draw their attention , not leaving a second for them to lose their focus on her. She then became the centre of the attention as of tonight. 

She wore a long blue sapphire dress covering her high heels but never did she stumble or mistakenly stepping her dress. The lower part of the dress was plain without any embroidered design leaving the upper part of the outfit from her shoulder to her waist to be fully sewn of customised simple flowery pattern in a light shade of blue sapphire. The measurement of the upper dress nicely fitted to her body which outlined her hour glass figure  and these combinations really hit off the elegance vibe and yet didn't concealed her confidence and charisma. Neatly tucked in the left hand was a silver pouch with glittering mini diamonds and its size was enough to store her phone and card holders. 

Whispering among several groups of clique, they continuously asked each other of how she looked like three years ago but none of them was actually remembered her in their memory including her former classmates. From their facial expressions right now showed how desperate they wanted to recall their past whether they actually came across to this charismatic woman back then or maybe she was never exist physically. They knew that in their batch got a female student named Clara Anderson who studied accountancy in Fall Academy the same year with them and even graduated on with them but sadly this woman's face didn't trigger any memory in their mind. They became aware of this name was due to her absence in attending the annual reunion gathering and her name was consistently being announced at the end of the gathering for the past three consecutive years. This effort made by the Alumni Committee as part of the small tribute tradition for those who couldn't attend the reunion as to cherish everyone's presence in this batch. Usually they would put up the current pictures of the absentees and updated info about them in terms of career and personal life on the presentation slides however this Clara Anderson only got her degree underneath her name and that was all on that slide specially written for her. There was no picture and info about her after graduating and surprisingly even the university didn't have any of her graduation picture. Because of this, her name actually carved inside their mind every year for an unique reason. Initially they were looking forward every year to bet among themselves whether this Clara Anderson would attend the next reunion or got some updated info on the slide other than her name and blank slide but gradually they became less interested to know about her. 

Understood of the piercing gazes on her the moment she stepped into the hall as she walked from the entrance door to the centre of the hall, Clara was clearly aware of the confusion and desperation showed upon the onlookers' faces and she knew that so far none of them remembered her existence in the past. She was nobody and invisible in everyone's eyes throughout her university days. How she actually survived back then! 

Some might think that this fact was an exaggeration but nothing was impossible in this world and humans were born with this trait inside everyone. Humans were always forgetful and this trait would never fade away till the day humans went on extinction. 

While everyone was awestruck admiring her and watched her every steps like a model walking on a fashion runaway, Clara briefly scanned through the scattered small crowds in the hall and trailed after each of everyone there. Like a spell being enchanted in the air , the surrounding noise came to a complete silence and every soul there except her froze precisely like the once trending  mannequin challenge. 

She was amused to witness this grand scene and subconsciously the stoic face of her gradually changed into a satisfying expression. She then closed her eyes to enjoy the aura of tranquility radiated in the air. 


As the time went by second by second , she also became one of them , slowly turned into a very pretty doll among all statues there. 

ZZZ ZZZZZ ZZZZZ ZZZ
ZZZ ZZZZZ ZZZZZ ZZZ

The lights that shone brightly around the hall flickered as if there was power outage issue.
One by one , the lights burned out , allowing the darkness engulfing each of the charred souls there.

*** This book is about the journey of Nick, Noah's sworn brother. 

Excerpt
"NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" Nick shouted as he dashed towards his siblings, trying to save them but his plead was ignored. 

Those bullies kicked and punched all of them merciless while laughing at their helplessness. The bruises on their bodies were formed so fast after a few kicking and punching because of the lack of the nutrients. Habitually, Nick adamantly bite his lip and his teeth painfully pierced into his own flesh until it was bleeding and yet, he didn't shout or scream unlike his siblings. Only the tears silently rolled down on his sunken cheeks. 

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" 

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" 

The continuous wailings from his siblings echoed through the air and emitted the exceptionally solemn and gloomy atmosphere. 

"You're acting tough huh? Let's see if you can endure this..." taunted the leader as he dragged one of his little brothers to the river and drowned the face into the water repeatedly. 

Nick's teary eyes widened in rage. He saw his brother aimlessly threw his hands and legs in the air as to escape from the water. This inhuman act of the leader forced his inner demon to retaliate. Unbearable, Nick couldn't suppress the burning rage inside him and the bomb finally exploded. 

Nick went rampant at last as he used every energy he had to shove those bullies away from his brothers and sisters. He pushed them with strong force and some of those bullies were caught unguarded hence they couldn't defend themselves on time so they even fell down on the cold ground and hissed in pain. 

He ran wildly to the leader with full speed and bumped his head onto the leader's torso like a mad buffalo attacked his prey. The leader ended up plunging into the water. Who knew that small and weak body with only bones left could unleash such a tremendous force in the desperate time. 

"Quick! Run!" With the ferocious look in his eyes, he raised his voice for the first time to his siblings and told them to escape. Fear of their brother's demon side which was scarier than those bullies, they hurriedly went hiding the bridge as they limped heavily all the way to the bushes nearby with the body full of blue and purple bruises.

"Huh?" 
The other numbers that walked in seemed just as surprised as me. 
For a brief second, time stopped. Did I fail? But I just got here! I could see myself leaving the building here seeing Amara's disappointed expression. That day at school, her twinkling brown eyes that dimmed into a cold black void. 
"You failed? Oh..." 
My very reality was on the verge of shattering into pieces. 
No. No. Amara wouldn't say that. 
*Even if by some chance those lovely people turn out to be dipshits and reject you Kagami, we can always turn to whotube!* 
But was that just her way of comforting me? 
"...have completely no sense of style for a rock artist. Your hairstyle and guitar are the only things that truly embody the spirit of rock. Let's hope your performance isn't as lacking." I heard only half of what she had said. 
"Stop intimidating the contestant, Ms. Yumena." A bald man wearing shades spoke calmly. 
"Yumena?! As in Yumena from Blacklist?!" I heard one of the other contestants say, 
"Umm..." I raked my hands through the front of my hair while pointing at myself with the other.  "I came here to audition as a composer, not as a musician." 
Hearing this, the judges' looks were pointed at the silver-haired woman, Yumena, her eyes clouded over when she heard me say this. 
"Hmph! If that was so then why didn't you just say so?"
"...I just did?"
One of the judges a woman with spiky pink hair coughed. At first, I thought she was Loraine, the lead singer, and guitarist from the band BlackPeace but she was wearing less make-up than I was familiar with, she also looked healthier. Something told me it was her. She seemed to be choking down a laugh. 
"Don't mind her." The bald man, I'm pretty sure he's Satoshi from Blacklist! he glanced at the form I had submitted online perhaps to confirm my claim. 
"Fukuda Kagami, correct?"
"Yes, sir."
I heard one of the contestants gasp. 
"That's-
"Ahem!" A man with long black hair, Renjiro, a bassist from the guitar, Ainz glanced in the contestants' direction. "Quiet down."
Satoshi-san gestured for me to go ahead. 
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous. Nearly getting kicked out still had my heart pounding and as I unzipped my guitar case my hands were trembling. 
I exhaled as I strapped on my guitar. And dried my sweating hands on my jeans before reaching for my pic. I stood. 
"You're not here to audition as a musician what are you so nervous for?" Ms. Yumena sneered. 
At that moment I could feel Amara's warm hand pressed against my back. Nudging me to go on. 
"I'll be performing a song I wrote myself. I hope you find it...satisfactory. I named it Golden Hysteria."
The judges waited.
I exhaled and before I began, envisioned Amara standing outside there waiting for me. It actually made me even more anxious. I hope she waits in the lobby at least. 
"Any day now." Ms. Yumena said checking her nails. 
I began to play carefully. 


The light's out~ the fans are gone ~
I stay to practice one more song ~
The silence that fills these walls
are deafening ~

Was it all a lie?
Those cheers that nearly reached the sky. ~
And the bodies that moved at the wave of my hannnnd. ~
And the bodies that moved at the wave of my hannnnnnnd.~
And the bodies that moved at the wave of my HAANNND!~

Goooolden Hysteriaaaa! ~
I reach for you and you all reach for me!~
When I am old and grey~
I'll recall my glory days~
And your voices will sing for me~
In symphony! ~

Goooolden Hysteriaaaaa!
Those days we nearly became God!
The hearts we struck, 
The hearts we stole,
I don't want to forget it at all. 
Should God smite me I would need to know why~
Should God smite me I would meet to know whhhhy~
Should God smite me I would need to remember whhhhyyyyyyy! ~

Heaaaaaavens, can't you stop time for meeeeeee?~
I need to burn this scene into my minnnnnd!~
I'll maake it a mold!
An encased art piece of hysteria in gooooold....
Of the bodies that moved at the waaaave of my hannnnd...

Was it all a lie? 
Those cheers that nearly reached the sky~
And the bodies that moved at the waaaaaaaaaaave... of my hannnnnd!
And the bodies that moved at the WAAAAve OF myyyy HAAAnnnnnd...~

It felt like I was back on Earth once the sound had ended. The faces of the judges were unreadable furthering the feeling of being disoriented. 
Loraine, was the first to speak. 
"I would have loved to sing this song if I were still back in the band." 
My mind went blank. 
Yumena looked to her and said something but I didn't hear anything at that moment.
"Aaah, how nostalgic." Loraine tucked her hand underneath her cheek. 
Loraine from BlackPeace liked my song. 
Loraine from BlackPeace liked my song. 
Loraine from BlackPeace liked my song.
Loraine from BlackPeace liked my song. 
Loraine from BlackPeace liked my song. 
"Fukuda-san has left the chat."  A young European kid watching with folded arms behind the long-haired fellow.


*The judges stared at Fukuda who was still standing there but his eyes were glassy looking but vacant*
"No way, was he a fan of yours Loraine?" Yumena asked. 
Loraine blinked. 
"Eh? Is he? I don't know. More importantly, what did you think of his song Satoshi, Ren-Kun?" Loraine looked to the two guys who had yet to voice their opinions. 
"...I'd like to know more before I form my own opinion."
"Fukuda-san. Fukuda-san." Loraine called out to Fukuda who blinked. 

He pointed at himself. 
"That's right. What else could you tell us about yourself?"
"Huh? Oh well, I can play the piano... I can also speak English and uh... ah! I was in a band in middle school, I wrote most of their songs. They're name is-
"Azure Phoenix!" That noisy contestant from earlier interrupted me. 
"Th-that's right, you know me?"
"I knew it! I knew it had to be you! You performed with them in the gym during graduation! I shared the video with dozens of my friends on whotube!" I had ignored him earlier but I recognized him at once he started babbling. 
Back then he was dressed an average middle school student dressed neatly but he had dyed his hair tomato red, had a bunch of ear piercings, and wore a leather jacket. Simply put he was completely punked out compared to back then. 
"Are you Fukami-san from the newspaper club?" He was always poking his head in our club room. Our very first fanboy. 
"To think you remembered me Fukuda-san..." Fukami's face nearly became as red as his hair. 
"If you are who you say you are, why haven't you applied to the same label as them? I'm sure your old buddies back at Azure Phoenix would be more than willing to have you?" Mr. Satoshi probed.  "Not only can you compose music you're also good enough to be subbed into a band."
"Oi, oi, you're not thinking of-" The long-haired fellow glanced at Satoshi-san. 
He didn't respond. He was waiting for my response. 
"That... it's embarrassing but I haven't kept in touch with them ever since my move. I decided to audition because I was tired of waiting. If you're really suspicious about my identity I can show you the royalty checks as well as my middle school graduation video..." 
Everyone looked to Mr. Satoshi who seemed to be withholding his response. He looked to Renjiro-san. 
"Ren-kun what did you think?" 
"He's pretty good isn't he? His guitar playing had soul, and his voice is refreshing to the ear, though if Kazuo were here, I'd bet he'd have more to say. He has potential. It's a pass for me."
"Then it's fine. Does everyone agree."
Loraine nodded vigorously and so did Yumena, shockingly. 
"Very well then, congratulations, Fukuda Kagami-san, you passed."
"Eh, eh?!" 
You passed. 
You passed. 
You passed. 
"Oi! Hurry up and get out of here! There are other contestants you know?!"
"Oh, I'm sorry! I mean thank you!" I deeply bowed at a 90-degree angle. My heart felt light.
Satoshi-san waved me a way. 
"We'll contact you on a later day using the given contact info on your form."
"Yes, thank you so much!"
"To see you so ecstatic as if you already aren't sort of famous, is sort of odd isn't it?" Lorraine commented. 
"Eh..."
"Contestant 44 please step forward."
I stood off to the side. Once everyone was finished grading we all left together. Fukami-kun bombarded me with a billion questions as we made our way out into the lobby. Some, I dared not answer.
"Kagami."
That voice. 
Amara was sitting in the lobby, she stood at the sight of me. 
My joy was re-kindled. 
"Amara!" I lunged at her. 
She looked startled and dodged. 
I crashed into the bench. 
"I'm sorry, I mean, what's the matter? Did- did you...?"
I looked up at her, not even the throbbing pain I felt in my face could cease the foolish grin sprawling across my face. 
"I passed!"
"Huh? Huh?!" Her eyes glittered with excitement. She clapped her hands together. "Ohmygosh you passed?! Congratulations Kagami!" She hugged me. 
Something soft pressed against my chest. Kyaaaaaaa! ~ 
Watching off at a distance, onlookers held an odd expression on their faces. 
"Hehehe..." 
If you asked me to scale my measurement of happiness at that moment it was paramount to infinity.



 






 

As I moved the skeleton of my new bed next to the window, I felt a gaze focused on me. Outside my window, was the house next door. The house shape was similar to ours, so it also had a window facing mine at the same level. Standing there on the other side was a skinny Japanese boy. 
As soon as I laid eyes on him, he stiffened, then shyly smiled and waved. His hair was all over the place, seeing him in his tanktop I thought to myself that he must've just rolled out of bed.
But wasn't it the afternoon already?

The boy says something but of course I can't hear him with my window closed so I slide it open. 
"Eto....hi." He tried in English.

If someone were to tell me later I'd come to care about him deeply, I'd find to hard to believe. For as long as I could remember I've always felt empty. And that emptiness, I hid on instinct. 

- an excerpt from Amara's Diary.

[Please collect your newbie pack.]
This sentence popped up before Ling Ran's eyes again at noon. At the same time, an icon shaped like a parcel kept flashing at the top right of his field of vision like a broken ambulance beacon.
Ling Ran quietly took out his notebook and made a note of it, but he did not give any response.
As a medical student, Ling Ran had a considerable amount of curiosity, but he could also exercise a sufficient amount of caution and self-control.
After obtaining this system in a baffling and confusing manner, Ling Ran immediately started making all sorts of records and tests on it.
...Because he first had to make sure that he was not crazy. And to avoid losing the graduation certificate he was about to receive, Ling Ran had to conduct the tests himself.
Ling Ran first chose the Davos Assessment of Cognitive Biases Scale. It was used to assess the cognitive biases of schizophrenics, especially those with delusional disorder. Moreover, it was a self-assessment.
There were a total of forty-two clauses and they all described the different attitudes and beliefs people held. The questions were asked in first person point of view, with one point to 'strongly disagree', and seven points to 'strongly agree'.
It was very easy to complete the whole form and some of the clauses were also easily understandable.
For example, the first clause: I am on the lookout for danger.
The ninth clause: I am often not sure what people mean.
The twentieth clause: I make sure that all windows are locked.
The twenty-fifth clause: The first thoughts are the right ones.
The twenty-seventh clause: I do not go out after dark.
However, even though it was easy to complete the self-assessment form, it was rather troublesome to process it. It usually needed to be calculated with many types of formulae before the final tally could be obtained.
Besides, other than the assessment of cognitive biases scale, Ling Ran also did the Chinese version of the Measurement and Treatment Research to Improve Cognition in Schizophrenia Consensus Cognitive Battery, Peters et al.'s version of the Delusions Inventory, Haddock's version of the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale, and the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale which was used to determine whether psychosis was present, and how severe it was.
In short, Ling Ran needed a computer that was equipped with the relevant softwares to use data to determine his mental state.
Ling Ran quietly walked to the second floor of the school laboratory. When he knocked on the door, he heard the sound of someone walking inside. All of a sudden, the person stopped for a few seconds in front of the door before suddenly opening it.
"Junior Ling Ran, you're here." His senior sister wore a thin layer of lipstick and seemed to have applied blush on her face. Illuminated by the dim lighting, it was easy for others to recall the wolf impersonating the grandmother in Little Red Riding Hood when they saw her.
"Senior sister, sorry to trouble you again." Ling Ran smiled calmly.
"It's okay, no big deal." The sight of him made his senior sister feel good. There was a miniature version of herself howling furiously in her mind. 'The school hunk is so handsome, the school hunk looks so charming when he smiles…'
Ling Ran continued smiling.
The senior suddenly came to her senses, and immediately shifted her body away from the door. She spoke with a beaming face, "Come on in, I made you tea… No, I'll make you tea. Oh yeah, how have you been?"
"Hmm? Quite healthy, why do you ask?" Ling Ran took note of this, but only paid a little attention to it.
"I heard that you did a CT scan and an MRI scan that day… Um, I just accidentally heard about it," his senior sister said while preparing a tea bag.
A CT scan cost a few hundred RMB, while an MRI scan cost around two thousand RMB. As Ling Ran wanted to scan multiple parts of himself in one go, he naturally utilized the resources available to him and asked for the help of a female senior on the third floor. His aim was to make sure that there were no organic changes to his brain.
Ling Ran had also prepared an excuse long beforehand for this. He said calmly, "I wanted to write something, so I asked for Senior Lee's help. You saw it? How was it?"
"It looks pretty good." When she said that, his senior sister immediately corrected herself, "It is pretty good, you're young and lively. There's no problem."
But his senior sister kept chastising herself internally, 'Why did I casually talk like this?! Calling the MRI scan of someone's brain good-looking? This makes it easier for him to think of you as a pervert! You are fated to be single forever!!'
"It's good that there's no problem. Hmm, senior sister, is this the machine?" Ling Ran pretended not to catch the nuances in her words and shifted his attention to the computer in the laboratory.
"Yes, it has the SPSS 20.0 statistical analysis software installed. As long as there're enough data, we can make a diagnosis on schizophrenia based on the DSM-IV. The CQB, BDI, PDI and PSYRATS evaluations that you want are all not a problem…" When it came to her specialty, the senior could not stop talking. Immediately after that, his senior sister taught Ling Ran to use the software hands-on.
Every year, there would be undergraduates who came here to borrow machines and softwares, but Ling Ran was the only one who got to receive such careful guidance.
His senior sister was also very happy. She earnestly taught the school hunk how to use the software before reluctantly saying, "Then, please operate it by yourself. I'll go outside first."
It would not be nice for her to stay and look at the patient's data.
"Alright, sorry to trouble you." Ling Ran took it upon himself to sit down and focused his attention on the computer screen.
The senior left the laboratory, but she turned to look at him repeatedly at every step she took to leave the place. When the door was completely closed, Ling Ran got up and locked it before quietly taking out a thick stack of questionnaires from his backpack.
He completed these just recently. To prevent the effects of delusions or schizophrenia, Ling Ran even took videos and let his schoolmates check some of them.
It was not rare for medical students to conduct experiments on themselves, especially when it came to psychiatric assessments. Because no operation or injection was required, everyone liked to use themselves as their own guinea pigs.
Ling Ran entered the numbers and letters into the corresponding extensions according to what his senior sister taught him. He then checked them twice and clicked on the 'run' button.
The computer started running, making quiet whirrs. Even though there was only single digits in the table, after adding in the formulae and coefficients, the operand was quite large.
The creaking sound of the printer only came after a long time had passed. Ling Ran grabbed the piece of paper that came out of the printer. He looked first at the end result.
"Well… the standard value of the Davos Assessment of Cognitive Biases Scale should be 128.05±26.5. Mine is… 154. Phew, fortunately, I am still 0.55 points away from being mentally ill."
Ling Ran happily stood up and decided to click on the newbie pack… but he stopped.
'I probably need to find a secluded and safe place before doing something like this. What if there's a Transformer in the pack? It would bring trouble to the country.'


Ling Ran, a med school senior, begins to see the world like a game UI. He uses it to pave his way towards graduation, a residency, becoming the greatest doctor in the world... And finally getting a Transformer from his newbie packs? Maybe. We don't know yet.

"No problem! Boss, I don't even need three days if it is just eight million! I will just buy three of your Land Rovers and it will all be gone! Actually, it wouldn't even be enough!" Tang Meng said heartlessly. 
Ling Yun did not know whether to laugh or cry as he kicked Tang Meng's ass. He glared at Tang Meng "Don't act stupid. If we followed your plan, it wouldn't be enough to buy a plane!" 
Tang Meng rubbed his head, grinning, "Big Brother Yun, you actually want to fill this mansion with furniture, right?"
Ling Yun was right; Tang Meng was playing dumb. Ling Yun glared at him again but agreed anyways. "That goes without saying. Listen, I place this fully in your hands. I don't care what you do, but you must satisfy my mum and my sister. I only have one request: it must be majestic and luxurious!" 
Actually, it was quite unbecoming to use eight million yuan to fill such a huge living room of a fifty million yuan mansion. However, it was more than enough to handle the emergency. 
Tang Meng assented solemnly. "Big Brother Yun, rest assured, I guarantee that this will be done well. Erm…" 
Tang Meng paused, glancing around to be sure that Qin Qiuyue and Ning Lingyu were not in the living room. He continued in a low voice, "Big Brother Yun, you want to dip into the nineteen million from Qingyun Productions?" 
Ling Yun shook his head and laughed. "There is no need. Dao Yong gave me eight million today. The money is with Tie Xiaohu, so just get the card from him." 
"Uh…" Tang Meng was dumbfounded. On top of the Land Rover Range Rover, he had also given him eight million yuan?
W-What is this? Did he have too much money so he gave some away? 
Ling Yun chuckled secretively and gave Tang Meng a sidelong glance. "My good brother Tang Meng, your big brother is having a housewarming party. Are you going to give me something as well? You see, even Dao Yong gifted me more than ten million…" 
Tang Meng knew that Ling Yun was up to no good when he chuckled like that. "Please spare me. You-you how it is with me…" 
Ling Yun looked pointedly at the Hummer outside the mansion and smirked. "Don't you have a Hummer…?"
Ling Yun was deliberately playing around with Tang Meng. He did not expect Tang Meng to turn around, nod, and say, "You want my Hummer? No problem, I will give it to you now!" 
Tang Meng was smart and calculative. No matter how brilliant Ling Yun was, he only had one butt and one pair of hands! He could only use a single car at any time. If he gave Ling Yun his Hummer, then he would be able to drive Ling Yun's Range Rover! 
Even though he truly liked his Hummer, the Range Rover was far more attractive to Tang Meng!
"Smart! Okay, let's get down to business!" The atmosphere turned serious as Ling Yun whispered, "You will drive the Range Rover to meet Dao Yong tomorrow. His men have already been instructed to handle all the formalities. Remember, all of it will be at his cost." 
"Understood!" Tang Meng's expression was gleeful one moment but turned sour the next. "Boss, why do you only bring Tie Xiaohu along on such good missions? Can you bring me along the next time?" 
Ling Yun got up suddenly and knocked on Tang Meng's head. "I will bring you along when you remember to call me Big Brother Yun instead of Boss!" 
"But I am already used to calling you Boss…" Tang Meng nursed his head in protest.
Ling Yun surveyed the entire living room again and said lightly, "As long as each cent is spent practically, you can do as you like." 
Tang Meng agreed. He knew what to do without Ling Yu's instruction. Tang Meng said, "The highest priorities are the living room, the bedrooms, the kitchen, and then the daily necessities…"
Tang Meng had experienced Zhuang Meifeng's shopaholic habits. Since Qin Qiuyue and Ning Lingyu were in charge at home, he smiled and said, "Okay, Boss—err,  Big Brother Yun. Count on me. I will see this task to completion!
Ning Lingyu quickly pattered down the stairway, her delicate body twisting gracefully with each skip in her steps. She stopped in front of Ling Yun and asked sweetly, "Big brother, which bedroom on the second floor are you taking?" 
"Uh?!" It was Ling Yun's turn to be caught off-guard. He hadn't planned on wasn't staying here until after his graduation! 
Ning Lingyu did not care about that. She happily extended her jade-like arms, hugged Ling Yun, and dragged him directly to the second floor. 
Ling Yun could only follow Ning Lingyu step by step up the stairway and asked, "Which room will Mum be staying in?"
Ning Lingyu grinned and said, "Mum wants to stay on the first floor. She said that the house is so big that it would feel very unsafe if everyone stayed on the second floor!"
Ling Yun shook his head and explained, "Mum does not need to worry herself over this. The security level of this area is pretty good, and there's all kinds of emergency facilities. If she is really concerned, we can have two guard dogs…" 
Ling Yun noticed that most of the people living in Qingxi Wharf have a few expensive dogs, be it pure breed Tibetan Mastiffs or German Shepherds. However, it seemed like they were not meant for security but more to emphasis certain status.
"Mum doesn't like dogs. They're too noisy, remember?" Ning Lingyu raised her eyebrows at Ling Yun as they reached the second floor. 
"Uh…" Ling Yun really didn't remember that. 
Ning Lingyu let go of Ling Yun's arm and beamed, "Let's go to my room first…"
This mansion was simply too big. The size of the land alone was more than two mu [1.mu is a unit of measurement, 1 mu ~ 667 square meters]. One could only imagine how many rooms there were on the second floor. 
There turned out to be only three bedrooms on the second floor. However, each one was at least double the size of Cao Shanshan's. They had everything that one could wish for. There was even a spa! 
The design of the spa was ingenious. The door from the bathroom led to the semi-recessed spa. While it was less than 20 square meters, it was cozy and exquisite. With a television on the wall, one could enjoy a glass of red wine and movie from the spa. 
"It is really f*cking extravagant…" Ling Yun could not help but mutter under his breath after entering Ning Lingyu's room. Who would still be willing to go out and fight for their survival with this kind of life?
However, the thought disappeared without a trace as fast as it had entered his mind.
Ning Lingyu held Ling Yun's hand throughout the entire tour of her room. A red flush slowly crept up her face for reasons unbeknownst to her. She stood close to him and loosened her grip on Ling Yun's hand. 
After the tour, Ling Yun smiled and walked straight to the bright wide floor-to-ceiling windows, gazing at the azure sea that was not far away. He turned back to Ning Lingyu. "This place isn't that bad. Lingyu, do you like it?"
Ning Lingyu delicately bit her lower lip and walked gently to Ling Yun's side. She linked her arms with Ling Yun once again and gazed at the sea with him. After a short while, she whispered, "Big Brother, I finally understand the meaning of what you said to me the other day.
Indulge only in what you truly desire!
Indeed, once anyone had a taste of this way of life, one would never compete and fight in the world again. It was possible to just enjoy life and the things you wanted to do peacefully. 
Ling Yun held Ning Lingyu dearly and smiled gently. "It is great that you understand. In the future, if you have nothing to do, just listen to music, read some books, and watch some movies. If you are tired, just look out to the sea, swim, or do some gardening. It's wonderful!"
"Yes…" Ning Lingyu seemed to be intoxicated by the Ling Yun's description of life. Her face was slightly red. It all seemed unreal, like she was living a dream. Ning Lingyu was afraid that she was indeed dreaming and did not want to wake up to reality.
And all of this was only possible because of her brother's immense changes and his willingness to share everything with her!
Ling Yun was suddenly alerted by the sheer volume of spiritual energy rolling off of Lingyu's body. 
"What happened? Could it be that she is affected by the Dragon Spiritual energy?" Ling Yun started to panic. If that was the case, that mean Lingyu was already… 
He carefully observed Lingyu's blushing face. His beautiful sister's face turned red once more today. 
"Big brother, can you stay in the room beside me? This way, I can… I can learn more from you…" Ning Lingyu finally came up with a seemingly reasonable justification.
Since Ling Yun would not be staying more than a few nights, it did not matter which room he stayed in. "Sure!" 
He smiled and told Lingyu, "Lingyu, give me your bank account number. I will transfer some money to you later. Take Mum and go shopping for the next few days for clothes, accessories, makeup, and whatever else you like." 
Ning Lingyu's face turned an even deeper shade of red. "Isn't that is too extravagant?"
Ling Yun laughed. "Well, if you don't want to buy anything, just save the money for your future dowry…"
"Go to hell, I am not marrying anyone! I want to be with Big brother—erm, and Mum forever!"
Ning Lingyu realized that she had said something wrong. She quickly looked away to hide her blush on her beautiful dream-like face.  
Just as Ling Yun thought of a response, there was a light cough from outside the bedroom suddenly. Qin Qiuyue's perfect silhouette appeared at the doorway. 


Lingyun's tribulation has failed and he has descended onto Earth in the degenerate age. Step by step, he will rise up against the natural order!

Leaving the banquet hall, Erina was amazed at the beauty of the halls, the halls were immaculate. The windows were all spotless, the paintings were lined up along the wall in perfect spacing, and most of all, glamorous chandeliers were hanging above, illuminating the halls.
Arriving at the double doors leading to the testing site, the Queen turned around and addressed everyone walking behind her, "So beyond these doors is the testing site, there are tables laid out for each family to sit at, so please find the table with your family's name on it and take a seat."
Walking through the opened doors, Erina was greeted by a relaxing yet simple sight. In the open courtyard, there was a Magic Measurement array on one side, in front of the array was a stage where the test taker would go to get tested. On the stage were a few large screens, where test results would be shown, as well as a panel where several of the most important parliament members would sit.
In front of the stage were 18 tables forming a semi-circle around the stage, one table per family along with a table for the Royal Family. On these tables was a name plaque, used to identify which family would be sitting there, along with a large table umbrella to allow the family members to remain in the shade.
Near the back, behind all of the tables, was a large array of cameras, used to broadcast the Magic Measurement test for the general populace to watch.
Along the sides of the courtyard, there were many trees under which had small tables for other parliament members. Each tree was tended to in a meticulous fashion, not a leaf out of place,  not a branch sticking out at a weird angle. Furthermore, each table was immaculate, gleaming under the sun's rays.
Taking a seat at the Noragi table, Erina was bouncing in her seat in anticipation, "This is so cool! Mama, why didn't you bring me sooner? It's so nice and beautiful!"
Taking a seat next to Erina, Miyuki replied, "Papa, and I didn't want to bring you here mainly because it's not as peaceful as you think it is, Erina. It's hard to tell but there are 2 factions within the 17 pillar families, nicknamed the Imperious Faction and the Modest Faction. In the Imperious Faction, the families advocate that because they are pillar families they are better than everyone and should be treated even better than they are treated right now. While the Modest Faction advocates that new legislature shouldn't be passed to make the 17 Pillar Families even more favored than they are right now."
Surprised at the hidden malicious politics between the families, Erina asked, "W-well which families are part of which faction? And which faction is our family part of?"
Thinking about it for a bit, Miyuki turned to Garret and poked him in the side, "You should answer this instead of me, you know a lot more about the current state of affairs than me."
Perking up at his chance to speak, Garret answered with an enthusiastic voice, "Okay! So our family, the Noragi family is part of the Modest Faction. Some of the other Modest Faction families are the Mitsuyas, the Yoshidas, the Seigis, and the Kuznetsovs. On the other side, some of the more prominent families in the Elitist Faction are the Hanamiyas, the Ivanovs, the Nijimas, and the Kusanagis. You might notice that even though I only named a few of the families that most of them are part of the Modest Faction. That is a trend that carries throughout the rest of the families, with the majority of the families part of the Modest Faction, even the Royal family could be considered in the Modest Faction."
-----------------
With everyone seated, the Queen walked up the ramp to the podium, exuding an air of confidence. Facing the families along with the cameras, she began, "Welcome back everyone, I would like to thank you all for coming today to the annual Magic Measurement test hosted by the Royal family. Today I will be hosting the event as I have for the past 10 years, calling out the names of testers. So to begin, would all the children taking the test today line up on the side of the stage?"
Following the announcement, there was a period of silence where only the sounds of moving chairs could be heard. Leaving the table to line up on the stage, Suzuki reassured a nervous Erina with a calm smile whispering, "Don't worry about me, okay? Believe in me, I'm your amazing sister!"
Seeing that everyone was lined up on the stage, the Queen began, "Would Gouki Ichijou please step up to the Magic Measurement Machine?"
Stepping out from the line, Gouki sauntered over to the first machine, the Magic Power measurement machine.
Placing his hand on the designated spot, several blue lines could be seen flowing into the machine.
*Whirrr*
After several seconds, the machine flashed and the result was displayed on the large screen on the stage.
In a mechanical voice, it reported,
{Result: Magic Power of the subject is A ranked}
Smiling with a smug expression, Gouki continued on to the next machine, the Magic Type measurement machine.
Slamming his hand on the testing spot, Gouki towards the other testers with an evil smirk while waiting for the test results to come in.
Waiting for a few seconds, another mechanical voice reported,
{Result: Magic type of subject is 35% release type 65% enchantment type}
[AN: I decided to call offensive type release type, also the percents mean that he is more suited to enchantment type magic compared to release type, not that only 35% of his Magic power can do release type.]
Walking over to the other two machines Gouki finished the other two tests in a brisk manner and walked back to the line when the mechanical voice reported,
{Overall scores of the subject are:
Magic Power: A rank
Magic Type: 35% Release type 65% Enchantment type
Magic Affinities: Earth B+ rank, Water C+ rank, Air C rank, Fire D rank
Specialization: Club}
[AN: Club because he is a brute~]
With the final report in, applause could be heard from the spectators below the stage.
Moving on, several other children went, going in alphabetical order by last name. Suzuki looked on as some children with better results than others.
After going through several other people, the Queen called out,
"Next, will Suzuki Noragi please step up to the Magic Measurement Array?"

Born with a frail body, but an exceptional talent for magic, Erina dreams of adventuring through the world.

Collapsing due to exhaustion? Who cares? I'm still alive!

Enemies? Didn't I tell you I have magic?

Getting lost? Ah, you know, good point that's a problem...

Watch Erina make friends, and try to enjoy life to the fullest!
-------
"C'mon Yuiko let's have some fun!" 

"Aiya Erina! I still need to study okay? I'm busy right now! I forgot to prepare for the test tomorrow!"

"Aww... Fine, then I'll go explore without you!"

"Hahhhh okay... Don't get lost though!"

"I won't!"

Later,
"Huh? This doesn't look right... where am I..."
--------
This is my first novel so please have mercy on me...
Aiming for 1 chapter a day currently~
Also I'm slowly Posting chapters on ScribbleHub too.

Briony signed when Brylee stopped the car in front of Miliani.

"I thought we are not coming back here after Uncle Lorcan warned you." She said.

"Are you kidding me?! I commissioned her to make me dresses. And besides, when did I ever mention Uncle Lorcan in front of her. We are not doing anything that should make Uncle Lorcan stop us from coming here. It's my right to choose my own designer." Brylee gave her a side-eye before she opened the door of the car and stepped out of it.

"Yeah, we are not. Until now." Briony rolled her eyes.

"Oh, come on! Have you seen Uncle's tailored suits? I am sure that it was Lydia who made them." Brylee said then she started walking towards the boutique.

"Yes, they are. But considering their current condition. I don't think Lydia would like to make him another suit. Or Uncle would like to wear anything that she touched." After being warned by her Uncle Lorcan and Bell, Briony seemed to be hesitant to go along with Brylee.

Meeting Lydia is simply dangerous. At least when they were threatened by their Uncle Lorcan and Bell.

Brylee stopped in her track then she turned to face Briony before she opens the door of the boutique. "I don't think Lydia would refuse to make a suit for me especially if I told her that it would be a gift. And I don't think Uncle wouldn't mind if I gift him a new pair of suits. He wouldn't even ask where did I buy it." 

Briony narrowed her eyes at her sister. "Uncle Lorcan is Uncle Lorcan. He would know."

"Miss Brylee, you are just in time for your fitting." The sales assistant greeted them with a pleasant smile before she accompanied them on the second floor of the boutique.

When they reached the second floor, the sales assistant immediately left them.

They saw Lydia on her desk with her head down. Her hand is moving swiftly yet smoothly on the sketch pad.

"Good morning, Ms. Lydia." Brylee greeted her.

When Lydia raised her head to look at the two, Brylee and Briony were taken aback. It was only more than one week since they last saw her, but she looked paler. Her eyes were dull and there were dark circles under her eyes.

"Miss Lydia, are you alright?" Brylee asked with concern.

"You looked terrible," Briony added. Worry was flashed on their faces.

Lydia forced a smile on her lips then she stood up from her seat and walked around her desk. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just a lot of work to finish." She said.

Lydia went to the cabinet and take out four dresses from it. Then she walked back to where Brylee and Briony were standing. 

Brylee looked at the dresses then she looked back at Lydia's face. "It's finished already?"

Lydia nodded her head. "Yes, you can try it on so that we can make necessary adjustments."

Brylee suddenly felt guilty. When she commissioned Lydia to make dresses for her, she didn't intend to make it rush. Yet, Lydia looked like she is rushing everything.

Brylee took the dresses from Lydia's hand. "You know, I was not in a hurry. You didn't have to finish it all at once." She said regretfully.

But Lydia just smiled at her.

Brylee looked at Briony and they both looked forlorn.

"I thought I've seen her worst at Uncle Lorcan's pad. She looks like she is not having enough rest. I wonder if she is eating well." Briony said in a hushed tone so that only Brylee could hear her.

They were both inside the fitting room. Briony decided to tag along and help Brylee with the fitting. Because she saw Lydia went back to working on her sketch pad and staying there would feel awkward.

"She is not looking good, which is bad." Brylee sighed heavily.

"Will you still commission her to make Uncle Lorcan a suit?" Briony asked because she is really concern about Lydia's current state. The last thing they wanted now is for Lydia to just collapse while making Lorcan's suit.

Brylee shook her head. "I don't know."

When they get out of the fitting room, Lydia saw them and immediately asks. "Is everything fine? Or we need adjustments?"

Brylee shook her head. "No, everything is perfect." That was not a lie just to keep Lydia from working extra hours for her dresses. The dresses fit her perfectly.

Lydia smiled. "That's good."

Then Brylee and Briony looked at each other hesitantly. They wanted to say something but were hesitant. 

And Lydia noticed it. 

"Can I help you with anything else?" Lydia asked.

Brylee bit her inner cheek.

"Uhm...I was wondering...if you could make me another one. But it is not a dress. Just one pair of suits. And it is no rush. You can do it anytime you are free." Brylee blurted out making Briony glare at her.

Lydia looked at them silently without any expression on her face. She pondered for a moment then after a while, she said, "Okay."

"Is it for you?" She asked.

Brylee shook her head. "No, it's for my Uncle. This is supposed to be my birthday gift for him."

"Oh..." 

That's when they see the hesitation in her face. 

"Then...I need a measurement." She said without looking at them.

"Yeah, I got it here." Brylee searched for a piece of paper on her purse and passed it on Lydia.

Briony eyed her with curiosity.

Lydia looked at the paper and frowned, but nevertheless, she pinned it on her board.

"I'll have my assistant call you when it's done," Lydia said.

"Okay, but you don't have to rush it. My Uncle's birthday is in three weeks so you need not work hard on it." Brylee said to which Lydia just nodded her head.

"Uhm...Miss Lydia?" Brylee just can't help it. Lydia who was back on her desk look up at her.

"Are you sure you are alright? I mean, I'm sure there is a lot of work going on, but you need to rest and eat. How about we go to our restaurant? You promised to visit one day. It'll give you time to relax." Brylee urged Lydia.

Briony nodded her head because she thought the same way. Lydia needs some break.

Lydia just smiled at them. "I promise to visit one day, but not today. Thank you."

"But you are not looking good. It is not right to abuse your body." Briony said.

Lydia was frozen for a while with her last words. Then she nodded her head. "You are right, I think I need some rest."

After a lot of convincing, Lydia finally decided to take a break. She instructed her assistant to order some food for her and to cancel her appointments for the day. 

Brylee and Briony didn't persuade her to visit their restaurant because Lydia seems like she needed rest more than food. 

When they left the boutique, Lydia went to her room and immediately drag her tired body into her bed. She eventually fell asleep after that.

"I am not comfortable with this," Briony said as soon as they get inside the car. 

"Yeah, me too," Brylee replied.

"And yet you still commissioned her to make Uncle Lorcan's suit. I feel sorry for her." Briony shook her head.

"I know, I just can't help it. I feel like I should do it."

Briony looked at her unbelievably.

Brylee is staring in front of her, her hands gripping on the stirring wheel. "Do you think she is burying her self to work so that she could forget about Uncle Lorcan?"

"She is definitely burying herself to work but I am not sure about the Uncle Lorcan part. We don't even know what happened to them. And Uncle Lorcan doesn't seem to care." 

"Uncle Lorcan is such a jerk! Urgh! I hate men!" Brylee seethed while gripping tightly on the steering wheel.

Then there was silence.

"I guess we should stop seeing her," Brylee said afterward. Briony looked at her with doubt. Brylee is saying that she will stop being nosy? Briony raised her hand and check Brylee's forehead with the back of her hand to check if she is sick.

Brylee irritably swatted Briony's hand. "What are you doing?"

Briony just shrugged her shoulders. "I thought you were sick. Thou you are right. If there was really something going on with Lydia and Uncle Lorcan, Lydia is obviously still hurting and trying to move on. Seeing us would not help. So, we should stop."

Brylee nodded her head defeatedly. "Thou I will still come to buy dresses."

"How about the suit you commissioned for Uncle Lorcan?" Briony suddenly asked.

"That will be the last time that I will have to see her," Brylee replied defeatedly and started to drive the car.

"By the way, where did you get Uncle Lorcan's measurement?" Briony asked when they were almost at home. She was certain that their Uncle Lorcan will never give his measurement to Brylee. And there is no way that Brylee could sneak in and get his measurement without being caught.

"I just assumed it." She replied, her focus is on the road.

"What? You mean, that is not his real measurement?" Briony said with a wide eye.

"Yeah, as if I can get Uncle's measurement." Brylee rolled her eyes. "I am sure Lydia has his measurement anyway. Now I wonder which measurement will she use."

By that time, they already arrived at their home.

"Bell and Bianca are back." Briony sais when she saw Bell's car parked at the driveway.

"I wonder what they found out. Let's go!"

Five Sisters with special gifts they found themselves a side job where they could utilize their gift.

As one of the backers of the parliament's Hawk Faction, the direction of public opinion was gradually leaning towards the Spirit Pagoda. On the other hand, the frontline military soldiers had no choice but to temporarily fall back as they truly could not wage the war. This was due to the judgment that if both sides were to engage in active attacks, the federal fleet too would be at a loss. They could possibly end up being completely defeated in the end without adequate supplies and due to endless incoming soldiers from the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Spirit Empire.
Despite the federation's power, they could not withstand the loss of their three great fleets. So they could only temporarily fall back after careful consideration.
The Hawk Faction had already come up with even more radical suggestions such as mobilizing the federation's last Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition to completely destroy the Star Luo Empire's line of defense. However, even the internal supporters of Hawk Faction could not possibly consent to such a destructive war tactic. It naturally remained as a convenient discussion.
Tang Sect paid the price by being listed as a treasonous organization of the federation in order to resolve the war in the end.
In Sea God Lake.
The crystal clear lake water rippled as a gentle wind blew across the surface of the water and resulting in soft waves of ripples.
It was supposed to be an exceedingly pleasing scene. However, not even a blade of grass could grow in the areas surrounding this large pond of clear blue lake water.
This was a result of the negative implications brought by the Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition. According to the federation's official measurement, the Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition left behind a large amount of remnant destruction energy with exceedingly powerful radiation. The area of three thousand meters surrounding the Sea God Lake would not be suitable for the growth of any life forms. On the other hand, the extent of the remnant radiation could very possibly last for a thousand years.
This was the most terrifying part of using Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition. If an ordinary person was to reside in this region, the person would fall sick very soon and it could even lead to a life-threatening condition. Soul masters had much stronger resistance but they would not be suited to live in this place for their health would similarly be affected.
A soul rover slowly drove on the bumpy wilderness by the lake. Five people were seated in the car. There were two males and three females that appeared to be over the age of twenty.
The thick glass and internal circulatory system of the car effectively shielded them from the destructive energy and radiation on the outside. 
"It truly does look magnificent! Just that it appears a little scary. The fact that not a single sign of life can be seen here is horrifying." In the car, a young maiden with her hair tied in a ponytail gasped in admiration.
"That's right! This is the reason why we should wage war. We can't tolerate the existence of a weapon of this extent. Otherwise, this is the result when one loses control," the youth driving the car righteously said.
The youth sitting next to the driver emotionally heaved a sigh. "That's truly a waste. Shrek Academy was originally located in this spot! It was the number one academy in the continent. When I was young, my biggest dream was to become a student of the Shrek Academy. It's simply the pinnacle of dreams in a person's lifetime to graduate from Shrek. It signified that the person will certainly thrive in life."
There were three maidens sitting at the backseat. The baby-faced girl sitting by the girl with a ponytail pouted her lips. "It's not as easy as you think it is. One would need to undergo strict examinations in order to be accepted in Shrek Academy. Moreover, there's still an elimination mechanism for those that are accepted into the academy. The academy doesn't impose any rules such as which subject to learn or one should work hard at something by force. However, one will be eliminated sooner or later if they don't work hard. It is said to be the holy land of soul masters. Even if one doesn't score especially well in the academy's examination, if one can persist until graduation and leave the academy, then one will discover that the world outside is actually very relaxing."
There was another young maiden with long hair draped across her back sitting on the other side of the baby-faced girl. She was also the prettiest among the three girls. She softly heaved a sigh and asked, "Ying Ying, your father graduated from the Shrek Academy, right?"
"That's right! That's his proudest achievement in life. Your brother too, right? Just that…" At this point, the baby-faced maiden named Ying Ying had a dimmed countenance.
The eyes of the beautiful maiden with long hair reddened. She was sobbing. Her brother was precisely one of the students learning in Shrek Academy. He was supposed to be the pride of the family, yet he had perished altogether with the entire Shrek Academy in that great catastrophe.
The purpose of their trip to the Sea God Lake was to visit the place so she could pay her respects. The rest of the four people were here to accompany her. They were her classmates.
"Yaping, don't be sad. It has already been so long. Those murderers will certainly die an untimely death!" The ponytailed girl hastily attempted to console her.
"Thank you." Yaping pursed her red lips. Her gaze laid upon the Sea God Lake on the outside all along. Only a short while ago, this place used to be the number one city of the continent. The number one academy in the continent was located here. She could still clearly remember how the entire family was so excited upon learning that her brother was accepted into Shrek Academy back then.
Her brother made great efforts to steadily work hard at elevating himself in the academy. His natural endowment was extraordinary and he had relied on his great efforts to even get a place in the inner court.
The act of getting a place in the inner court signified that the person could remain in Shrek Academy in the future. It was an honor for the entire family to have a person capable of achieving this in their family.
Yet who would have known that a great catastrophe would suddenly fall upon him during on that very day. The entire family was filled with disbelief upon learning the news of Shrek Academy being blasted by Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition. Her mother had even fainted from the shock.
Her father aged overnight while her mother spent every day with tears streaming down her face from missing her son. Who would have known that the number one academy that had existed on the continent for twenty thousand years would vanish into thin air just as such. There was also their close kin who perished together with the academy.
"Do all of you think that this is an act of the Spirit Pagoda?" The boy riding shotgun could not refrain himself from asking.
The boy on the driver's seat turned his head to the side and took a glance at him. "Watch your words. Spirit Pagoda is influential like the sun at high noon right now. It's okay for us to discuss conveniently to ourselves, but don't you just say that aloud when you're on the outside.
The youth riding shotgun scoffed. "In my opinion, this is certainly the act of Spirit Pagoda. How could the Holy Spirit Cult acquire Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition so easily without their help? I heard that Spirit Pagoda received the most gains as a result of the destruction of Tang Sect's headquarters and the Shrek Academy. Out of the three great organizations on the continent, only Spirit Pagoda that remains now. It is the monopoly of a single clique. Had it not been the headquarters being destroyed, I don't think that the parliament would have the audacity to announce Tang Sect as the treasonous organization of the federation."
"Alright, alright. You say that but if Spirit Pagoda sends out a request to invite you to work for them, won't you agree to it?" said the ponytailed girl in an unpleasant tone.
The boy riding shotgun was stunned for a moment and then answered with a slightly awkward expression. "Of course, of course not." Even though he said as such, everyone could tell that his words were insincere. There was no other place as popular as Spirit Pagoda now, especially after they made the announcement that they would recruit and employ ordinary people as their staff. They were now renowned beyond comparison.
Yaping did not pay attention to the conversation between her friends all along. She seemed to see the silhouette of her brother as she looked at the Sea God Lake that was as clear as a mirror on the outside.
Her eyes were gradually pooling from her tears while the world outside the window in her vision blurred as well.
Yet it was at this very moment that she was suddenly stunned.
She watched as a man suddenly bored out from the surface of Sea God Lake that was not supposed to contain any signs of life. The man was dressed in a white robe. He had an exceedingly handsome appearance and long flowy hair. He was suspended on the surface of the lake just as such.
Yaping subconsciously raised her hand and wiped away the tears on her face. Could it be that her eyes were deceiving her because she missed her brother so much?
In the next moment, she wiped away her tears and fixed her gaze upon the scene once again to find that she could still see the silhouette there. Not only that, the silhouette was slowly floating into the air. His entire body seemed to be emitting a faint radiance. It felt as if he had already transformed into a core between heaven and earth.
What was that?
"Look!" The boy riding shotgun was the second person to notice this peculiar scene. He could not refrain himself from shouting aloud.
The boy in the driver's seat hit the brake hard and stopped the rover car. The gaze of five people was simultaneously projected onto the surface of Sea God Lake. They stared in bewilderment at the unexpected silhouette.
Who was that person?
The boy riding shotgun procured the photography tool that he carried along with him and raised it to take photos in the direction of the lake.
The white-robed youth rising in the air raised his hand and pointed towards the sky.
A stream of piercing white light suddenly surged skyward in a manner that was akin to piercing through the heaven and earth in a split second.
It was even more shocking that the Sea God Lake underneath him was suddenly surging with waves to support his weight and sent him a hundred meters away into the sky.
The white-robed man grasped at thin air and suddenly conjured a white spear in his hand. A voice that was filled with endless overbearingness was heard soon after before spreading in all directions.
"From this day onwards, Shrek shall be rebuilt!"


Following the advancement of soul technology, the humans of Douluo Continent conquered the ocean and discovered two new continents.

Afternoon after lunch all-girl wearing bloomer waiting in front of the nurse's office.

Every one of them hold their own Medical Examination Form while comparing each other's body development.

Suddenly the nurse office door open and a handsome silver-haired man wearing white doctor coat come out and said," All of you will go to line and one by one you will go inside according to your own sit number"

"After you enter you just need to give the Medical Examination Form in your hand"

"Then I will be going to conduct some Medical Examination to you like measurement and body condition"

The girl embarrassed hide in behind her friend.

One of her friends said," Doctor, please don't be angry on her she just embarrassed in doing this in front of male"

The man smiles at them," It's fine i know that some of you are nervous because the doctor is male, but I can guarantee to you that every one of you is only normal patients in my eyes"
