I'm really not the god of time.

Chapter 29 [Modern Warlocks] Are All Weaklings

Bai Lu pouted and reluctantly agreed.

Zhang Lingyun asked:

"Senior sister, how do I use this potion?"

Bai Lu explained to him:

"The way to digest this space potion is to eat a handbag within 10 minutes."

Zhang Lingyun looked at the potion in his hand, a troubled expression on his face:

"I'm afraid I don't have that kind of appetite."

Bai Lu smiled and pulled him up:

"Don't worry! We have a way!"

The two arrived at the school store, where Bailu introduced the store:

"This shop is also owned by Golden Rose, and it contains many opportunistic and clever items."

Zhang Lingyun was somewhat puzzled:

What does "opportunistic and shortcut-taking" mean?

Bai Lu went to the leather section and bought a fish skin wallet.

Do you eat spicy food?

"I won't eat it."

"Then I'll buy the original flavor."

Zhang Lingyun asked, somewhat puzzled:

"What are you going to do with this?"

"Of course, it's about eating!"

Bai Lu handed him the purse and introduced it:

"The sorcerers of the past were incredibly fierce; they actually ate leather bags."

But modern warlocks have weak stomachs; they're like flowers in a greenhouse, which is why this alternative has emerged.

Zhang Lingyun picked up the wallet and took a bite, half-believing and half-doubting.

It tastes like cold jellyfish salad; it would be even better with some shredded cucumber.

After he finished eating everything in the bag, a card with a faint glow floated down.

This is a card from the [Spellcasting School] that can open a dimensional pocket next to you, specifically for storing small items.

Bai Lu watched from the side, muttering enviously:

"Master is too good to you! I did so many things before Master was willing to give me this potion."

Zhang Lingyun casually replied:

"Yeah?"

Bai Lu glared at him, her tone tinged with resentment:

"What kind of monster are you? How come your [Magic Power] is increasing so fast?"

Zhang Lingyun smiled and teased her on purpose:

"It's nothing, I'm just an ordinary genius."

Bai Lu turned her face away angrily:

"Hmph, I hate geniuses the most!"

In fact, Bai Lu was considered a genius witch by others, otherwise Lan Ruoxi would not have taken a liking to her.

But lately, when she's with Zhang Lingyun, she always feels like a salted fish.

Zhang Lingyun suddenly remembered something and asked:

"Let's not talk about me, I think Master is the scariest. Just how many rings is her [Awakening Card]?"

Bai Lu shook her head and said:

"Just like you, Master keeps the Awakening Cards a secret and never tells anyone."

Zhang Lingyun nodded, pondering to himself:

It seems he's not the only one in the world with "cheat codes".

Considering Lan Ruoxi's 60 [magic points], her "cheat code" might be even bigger than mine.

The world's talented people are as numerous as carp crossing a river!

-----------------

the next day.

Zhang Lingyun returned to school to attend classes.

As soon as he sat down, Wang Dong leaned over:

"Where did you go yesterday? You didn't come to class all day."

Zhang Lingyun remained calm:

"I didn't go anywhere, I just went out for a trip."

Wang Dong winked and asked gossipily:

"Was it with that dark-skinned woman?"

Zhang Lingyun did not evade the question and simply responded with an "Mm".

Wang Dong, whose face was covered in acne scars, was practically bursting with envy, but he still managed to take the opportunity to deliver a sarcastic remark:

"You're really something! The college entrance exam is almost here, and you still have the mind to go out and have fun?"

Zhang Lingyun appeared completely indifferent.

"It's fine."

Wang Dong's curiosity remained undiminished, and he continued to press for answers:

"What do you mean 'nothing'? What's your [Awakening Ring] level? Are you really going to be promoted without taking the entrance exam?"

Zhang Lingyun smiled faintly:

"you guess?"

"I think it's unlikely. At most, you'll get one bonus point."

"Hmm! Maybe it's possible, maybe it's not."

"Why are you being so annoying lately?"

Wang Dong frowned:

"But even with bonus points, you can't completely neglect your studies. If your academic performance doesn't meet the standards, you'll still end up doing manual labor."

Zhang Lingyun ignored this comment and instead looked at Zhuang Wenwen in the front row.

Her face was flushed, clearly indicating that she had internal heat rising.

He turned to Wang Dong and asked:

"Is she still taking the 'angel drug'?"

Wang Dong sighed and nodded in response:

"That's probably true. Even after Liu Yang's incident, people were still secretly selling them outside of school."

Zhang Lingyun frowned:

"Isn't anyone going to do anything about this?"

Wang Dong explained:

"We can try to manage it, but we simply can't manage it all."

[Angel Drug] is not a seriously prohibited item; it is only used to increase [Magic Power], like a supplement for fitness.

Even if you eat until you're extremely smart, the punishment is very minor.

Zhang Lingyun frowned.

He thought of the musician's situation and realized that the drug's harmfulness was far greater than it appeared on the surface.

However, it seems that no one has realized this yet.

The door was flung open with a bang, and the homeroom teacher rushed onto the platform.

His face crinkled into a wide smile as he loudly announced to the whole class:

"Quiet down, everyone! I have some great news to announce! A classmate of ours has received a guaranteed admission to university and doesn't need to take the college entrance exam!"

The classroom instantly erupted in noise.

The students began to guess among themselves:

Who is so lucky to avoid the hellish life of senior year of high school?

Wang Dong gritted his teeth in envy and nudged Zhang Lingyun with his elbow:

"Bro, guess who this is? It's so enviable!"

Zhang Lingyun spoke calmly, then secretly started playing with her phone.

"have no idea."

Wang Dong glared at him:

"Why don't you seem excited at all? You're acting like a corporate slave who's been stuck in office for ten years."

Immediately afterwards, the homeroom teacher announced the names in a loud voice:

"The student who secured admission to Green Island University is Zhang Lingyun from our class!"

The entire venue fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone turned their heads in unison, staring at Zhang Lingyun in shock.

Everyone seems confused about what kind of cheat code this guy who always sits in the back has been using lately.

Zhuang Wenwen, in particular, suddenly turned her head around.

Her eyes were incredibly complex.

There was a hint of resentment in the surprise, and deep regret hidden within that resentment.

At that moment, she was thinking that if she weren't so arrogant, she could have this boy as her boyfriend for the rest of her life.

Wang Dong was so shocked his eyes almost popped out, staring at Zhang Lingyun in disbelief:

"Dude, are you serious? You've been hiding this for so long!"

Zhang Lingyun remained calm.

"It's nothing special."

"When did you find out?"

"I took care of it while I was visiting the university yesterday."

The classroom erupted in another uproar, filled with astonished discussions.

The homeroom teacher had just received the news and wasn't entirely clear on the details, so she quickly asked:

"Zhang Lingyun, which major did you get admitted to through the guaranteed admission program?"

Zhang Lingyun responded calmly:

"The School of Change".

"The School of Change?"

The homeroom teacher's eyes lit up, and she pressed on with another question:

"Which professor did you study under?"

It must be said that the homeroom teacher is very professional; every question is to the point, making it perfect for "subtle showing off."

Zhang Lingyun answered calmly:

"Lan Ruoxi".

When the name was mentioned, even the homeroom teacher was stunned.
