On the Elayven Great Plain,

"Uh... Wasn't the artificial Shadow World supposed to be safe?"

Lanqi muttered worriedly, looking at the motionless Felat lying far away.

He seemed to have gone too far.

According to Lanqi's plan, the more opportunities Huberrian could create to raise Felat's anger, the better their chances of winning.

But Lanqi had never practiced such a strategy before.

He wasn't sure how angry Felat needed to be before he could use [Great Love Poet] to make Felat suddenly calm down from his rage.

So Lanqi just asked Huberrian to delay as much as possible.

This way would be a bit safer.

He didn't expect the power of [Great Love Poet] to be so terrifying.

[Detected severe cardiovascular and cerebral damage to Examiner Felat beyond the artificial Shadow World's protection protocol, initiating emergency transfer measures...]

With the sudden appearance of this prompt in the sky of the Shadow World, Felat's form on the ground was teleported away from the artificial Shadow World.

Meanwhile, in the exam venue, Teacher Teresa, who was in charge of coordination, was anxiously stomping her feet.

After observing Felat's condition, she urgently contacted the medical team from the Alchemy Academy, who were now rushing to the exam venue with a stretcher.

Most healing spells were more suited for external injuries.

There were advanced magic spells that could treat uncomplicated internal injuries.

But cerebral hemorrhage, she really couldn't cure.

Felat needed specialized doctors to perform emergency surgery.

"Lanqi... And to think I was initially worried about you being troubled by Felat..."

Teresa covered her face with both hands, her voice full of despair.

It turned out she had worried about the wrong victim.

She didn't know how to evaluate the boy who had so candidly told her "I'm a white mage" during enrollment.

Just thinking about Lanqi studying at the Sage Academy in the future, or even joining the Healing Mage Department, Teresa felt the school's reputation was doomed.

Lanqi might single-handedly change the connotation of the term "healing mage".

Even in the entire history of healing mages, he would be a significant figure.

......

The conference room of the Sage Academy was neat and solemn, with long tables surrounding the central giant circular magic screen.

Crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling, and the meticulously polished details on the walls along with neutral tones made the entire space bright and comfortable.

However,

At this moment, the conference room had fallen into a chaotic discussion!

"Just received the latest news from the exam venue, Felat had a cerebral hemorrhage caused by Lanqi."

"His magic cards are truly newborn!"

"Once you get riled up by this kid, you're done for. He'll make you lose control of yourself instantly."

Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation.

"But if you were in Felat's position, who could guarantee they wouldn't get agitated by him?"

"..."

Everyone understood the logic.

But even if everyone now knew that Lanqi's provocation of the enemy was an open strategy,

If they were to face Lanqi, no one could say for sure if they could control themselves...

Lanqi even had a mysterious rank 1 magic card that he hadn't used yet.

Who knows if it's an even more mind-bending card! And what other torturous methods Lanqi might come up with in the future!

"As an opponent, you either have to kill Lanqi directly, or even if you're held back by him or his teammates, you must maintain your inner calm before taking him down,"

Vice Principal Roen commented, reviewing this exam.

With [Great Love Poet] as Lanqi's core trump card, when facing him, emotions other than "anger", including "surprise", "sorrow", and "joy", could be equally fatal.

And clearly, Lanqi himself was very skilled at manipulating the enemy's mind, causing them to fall into some extreme emotion, and then letting it roll like a boulder down a mountain, unstoppable.

"Usually, those who like to play with the enemy's mind are the tactics favored by the most evil demons in the holy wars against demon nations,"

A teacher couldn't help but sigh, witnessing the decisive replay on the magic screen.

"Should we check his human registration again?"

Another teacher immediately suggested this idea.

Vice Principal Roen shook his head.

"There's no need to do such a disrespectful thing to a student. His race was already verified during enrollment."

"Lanqi's card that doesn't distinguish between friend and foe is actually something even demons wouldn't dare to use recklessly, because demons' desires are also their weakness, and when infinitely amplified, it's equivalent to self-destruction."

"Unless the user is a person with a heart as clear as still water, they can avoid being affected at all."

Roen sighed.

Obviously, Lanqi was a person with such an unbeatable mentality, his temperament was indeed extraordinarily optimistic and composed.

No matter what situation he encountered, he never showed the slightest wavering.

The teachers present could only nod helplessly.

Although it was difficult to define the current strength of Lanqi, who was only at rank 2, they knew that no one would want to face Lanqi after he grew up.

His lower limit approached zero, but his upper limit was equally terrifyingly high.

For example, in this exam, under increased difficulty, not only did Lanqi and Huberrian pass, but they also achieved the special clearing condition of defeating the examiner, which meant they would receive extremely high scores.

Vice Principal Roen knew that Lanqi's temporary teammate Huberrian wasn't even the most compatible with him.

If Lanqi were to find a perfectly compatible teammate, it would probably be an unimaginable disaster...

Thinking of this, Vice Principal Roen couldn't help but take off his glasses and start searching through the new student forms from the Knight Academy.

When he found one particular page, he took a deep breath.

It seemed their school had recruited a pair of hidden dragons and crouching phoenixes this year...

......

In the Phantom Valley, with the message of passing the exam, Lanqi breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed he hadn't damaged the artificial Shadow World terminal this time.

But this terminal indeed had quite a few hidden dangers. What did they mean by no life-threatening danger? Hadn't he just found one?

Surely the professors at the Magic Engineering Academy would be very grateful to him, a new student from the Sage Academy, for helping them eliminate a safety hazard.

"I'm heading out first."

Huberrian, far away, waved tiredly to Lanqi and exited the artificial Shadow World exam environment first.

Compared to the unscathed Lanqi, she had suffered quite a few injuries and wasn't feeling well. Only by exiting the artificial Shadow World could she recover from her injuries.

Lanqi nodded in the direction where Huberrian had disappeared.

Then he glanced at the epic-level summoned creature — [Great Love Poet].

The reason he couldn't directly exit the artificial Shadow World was that he had to recall all his magic cards before he could pass through the void gate.

Seeing this little demon summon that looked extremely similar to Talia, Lanqi couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

When he was collaborating with Talia to create this card using [Compassionate Psalms], the drawing step was done by him.

To make this card as perfect as possible, he naturally chose his most proficient drawing method —

Directly imitating Talia's appearance to give form to the summoned creature!

Moreover, the main card maker for this summoning card was Talia, and it had a very deep bond with her.

Using her image to finalize the card achieved a level of compatibility that was unexpectedly perfect and difficult to explain.

Even though Talia was both shocked and angry about this in the end.

But in order not to ruin this soon-to-be-born masterpiece, and for the huge card-making fee Lanqi had promised her, she still forcibly endured it.
