The raging flames erupted from within the puppet, sweeping over it and instantly engulfing and incinerating it.
Against the backdrop of the striking firelight, Tang Yue's fair face was tinged a captivating red, and the smile playing on her lips further highlighted her confidence.
"Confident women are indeed beautiful!" Lin Chen murmured to himself. Perhaps due to his cultivation of the Yin-Yang Art, Lin Chen had always had a low resistance to beautiful women.
Ignoring the worshipful gazes of her students, Tang Yue continued her lesson.
"Which students in the class are Fire-element?"
Several students who had awakened Fire-element magic stepped out from the crowd, including the Son of Fortune, Mo Fan. After Tang Yue taught them for a while, her gaze swept over the other students in the class, finally settling on Lin Chen, who was standing at the very back.
"Oh…" Tang Yue's expression was clearly surprised.
Because a mage's Spirit is greatly strengthened after meditating, they can sense many auras that ordinary people cannot, and by a person's aura, one can roughly deduce their cultivation.
Of course, this also depends on the gap in cultivation and mental force between the two parties.
Additionally, there are also methods of concealment, such as magic tools.
"Interesting…" Tang Yue, after a second glance, immediately averted her gaze and continued with the lesson.
Lin Chen did not mind Tang Yue's attention. Being deeply entrenched in the Way of the Dog, Lin Chen naturally did not lack Spirit-shielding spirit tools.
Having spent so many years in Douluo Continent, and once being a Level Seven soul master himself, when traveling the World, he never returned empty-handed. At this moment, the various spirit tools in his warehouse were enough to equip several armies.
The charm of an older woman was quite powerful; in a short time, she had become the goddess in the hearts of the young boys.
They listened to the lesson with extraordinary seriousness.
The day's lessons quickly ended, but unexpectedly, Tang Yue suddenly said, "Student Lin Chen, come with me for a moment!"
Lin Chen, who was called out, was somewhat at a loss. Had he not been low-key enough?
As for the other chuunibyou teenagers in the class, they were almost bursting with envy.
For a moment, whether it was Mu Bai, Zhang Xiaohou, or Mo Fan, they all stared intently at Lin Chen, their envy, jealousy, and hatred unspoken.
Soon, Lin Chen arrived at Tang Yue's office. After entering the office, he realized that the teachers seemed to have already left for the day.
For some reason, some scenes from movies inexplicably popped into his mind.
"Have a seat first!" Tang Yue did not know what Lin Chen was thinking; instead, she went to the water dispenser and poured a glass of water.
After pouring the water and returning, Tang Yue placed the glass in front of Lin Chen. She sat on a nearby sofa and asked, "Lin Chen, did you awaken the Summoning系 for your Basic Magic?"
"That's right, it's Summoning系!" At this moment, Lin Chen transformed into the image of a good boy, his face full of sincerity.
"Although I don't have Summoning系, I am quite knowledgeable about it. You can ask me anytime if you have any questions in the future!"
Lin Chen nodded at Tang Yue's kindness and obediently said, "Okay, Teacher!"
Tang Yue smiled slightly, then asked, "How many Star Dust have you currently controlled?"
Lin Chen said earnestly, "I have currently controlled four. According to my progress, I should be able to complete the control of the fifth Star Dust in another month!"
At this moment, Lin Chen was like a good boy, answering every question with a sincere face.
This was not because Tang Yue was a beautiful woman, but because of Tang Yue's true identity—a Judge.
Given his current situation of cultivating both soul and magic, Lin Chen did not intend to reveal too much until his magic level reached High-Tier.
Only when his magic level reached High-Tier, with the basic amplification of his Spirit and the power of a six-fold Soul Seed, could his magic's destructive power rival Super-Tier perfection or even Forbidden Magic. At that time, Lin Chen would truly fear no one in this World, and even if he couldn't win, he could escape.
In the All Magic World, besides the terrifyingly powerful demons, what was even more frightening than demons was the human heart.
Demons could be avoided; they generally lived in specific areas and didn't just wander around randomly.
But humans were different; the human heart is unfathomable. These four words are a timeless truth in any World.
Tang Yue nodded and said, "From what I understand, you live alone now?"
Lin Chen said, "That's right, I live alone!"
Tang Yue said, "Are there any problems you can't solve?"
Lin Chen shook his head and said, "Not at the moment. Wei Fang takes good care of me!"
Subtext: I'm half of Wei Fang's person, please let me off!
Tang Yue said, "From what I see, your talent is good. Work hard on your cultivation and strive to release your magic as soon as possible. You can also come to me anytime if you have any problems in your life!"
Lin Chen obediently said, "Okay, thank you, Teacher!"
Tang Yue picked up a pen and wrote something on a piece of paper.
After a while, Tang Yue handed the paper to Lin Chen and said, "This is my phone number. You can contact me anytime if you need anything!"
Lin Chen took the paper and thanked her, "Thank you, Teacher. If there's nothing else, I'll head back now?"
Tang Yue nodded and said, "Hmm, go back early!"
Watching Lin Chen's retreating figure, the smile on Tang Yue's fair face gradually faded, her brows furrowed in thought.
After a long while, Tang Yue murmured to herself, "What exactly are you hiding?"
Lin Chen was very mature, so mature that it felt incredible.
After his parents passed away, and he wallowed for a month, he immediately reined in his sharp edge, as if he had hidden himself in the shadows.
After awakening his magic, he frequently took leave, further reducing his sense of presence to the lowest.
He was usually gentle and humble, never getting into any disputes with anyone.
When communicating with him, he was very sincere and open, answering every question, and possessing a maturity far beyond his peers.
Yet, Tang Yue's intuition always felt that something was amiss.
Generally speaking, things that are too perfect often have problems; perfection is often just a facade to cover up issues.
Of course, Tang Yue did not suspect Lin Chen of being from the Black Vatican.
Because Lin Chen's background was simply too clean, impeccably clean.
Not only were his parents Wei Fashi (Law Enforcers), but even after their deaths, Lin Chen often had many ties with Wei Fang.
His file was even something she had no authority to check. Such a key protected individual, who would believe he was from the Black Vatican?
Lin Chen did not know Tang Yue's true thoughts. If he did, he could only sigh at how terrifying a woman's intuition was.
…
Time flew by, and two months passed in a flash.
Lin Chen's life had not changed much due to Tang Yue's arrival; he still took leave from time to time.
His life also gradually became more regular: cultivation, monster hunting, and dating.
During this period, he also visited the Imperial Capital once and spent a few days with the little princess.
The little princess's cultivation progress was also astonishing; with sufficient resources, her spirit power level had already reached Level 37.
Her Ice-element magic had also broken through to Intermediate-Tier Level Two.
