Xian Empire, ShanDong Province, West Castle Town.

ShanDong Province is a major province for the magical high school entrance exam in the Xian Empire. Each year, only a very small proportion of magical high school students can be admitted to the key imperial magical universities, which can be described as a "hell mode".

Correspondingly, the management of magical high schools in the Hedong area is generally very strict.

On the playground of West Castle Town First Magic High School, students are arranged in orderly square formations by class. Under the scorching sun of the Hedong area, they circle around the statue of the magical king in the center of the playground during a daily large-scale break activity—morning exercise.

"Enthusiasm in youth, surpassing dreams! The sky is high and the earth is vast, let me soar!"

"Class Ten, Class Ten, extraordinary strength! Class Ten, Class Ten, third in the continent!"

Passing by the viewing platform, the square teams shout slogans, keep in step, and shoot the "Basic Magic•Wind Blade" into the sky. The scene is magnificent.

Whizzing sounds fill the air!

After the performance, the students line up neatly, standing straight and looking determined.

Sweat drips down their young cheeks, evaporating in the sweltering summer air of the northern empire.

The headmaster stands high above the viewing platform, looking down at the vibrant students.

He smiles and turns to the director to praise, "Our students are all full of energy and spirit! Especially the graduating class, they have set an excellent example for their younger brothers and sisters!"

"Yes!" The director agrees, "The graduating students will take the magic college entrance exam in one month. They will face this first major test of their lives with the fullest spirit and enthusiasm..."

"Well done." The headmaster pats the director's shoulder, "Next week, the special enrollment group from the church will come to West Castle Town. We must build a good relationship with them and make our school's college entrance examination even more glorious!"

"We also need to rehearse the magic fireworks performance formation seriously to ensure they are satisfied!"

Hearing the conversation between the two, the students grumbled inwardly.

What a lousy school! They make us run in the heat to please the church's god-stick, sacrificing precious review time! It's so infuriating!

Despite the complaints, no one dares to rebel.

To maintain the enrollment rate, West Castle Town First High School implements strict management, with trivial matters written into the school rules and regulations.

If students accumulate a certain amount of disciplinary points, they will be unconditionally expelled and lose the chance to attend the magical college entrance examination.

For the common people of the Xian Empire, losing the chance to take the exam means that their channel for class mobility is completely blocked, and they become a "salty fish" for the rest of their lives.

So, everyone follows the rules, except for one man.

"Li Wei! Christopher•Li Wei!" Homeroom teacher George shakes the attendance list with regret, shaking his head, "Ah, this rascal has skipped school again... Does anyone know where he went?"

"Reporting to the teacher, Li Wei went to the West Village Mountain to catch fish with explosives." Class Monitor Vina reports.

"I heard he figured out a new way to use the fireball technique and ran out excitedly." A bystander adds.

George sighs, "Goodness, he destroys the ecosystem of ShanDong Province by blowing up fish all day...Vina! Go to the West Village Mountain during the noon break and bring Li Wei back to me!"

Vina opens her mouth as if to say something but then decides against it.

Catching Li Wei is a difficult task, as he has an unpredictable and cunning nature, and Vina as a well-behaved student usually keeps her distance from him.

Moreover, Li Wei is the most handsome boy Vina has ever seen, even more attractive than the male celebrities whose photos go viral on the magic internet.

Every time Vina speaks face-to-face with Li Wei, she feels her face turn red and her heart races, feeling very uncomfortable.

However, the teacher's orders must be obeyed, which makes it a real headache.

"Ugh, that stupid Li Wei, how many times has he skipped school? He should've been expelled by now," in the middle of the team, a richly dressed young man sneers.
