Chapter 118 – Magic Lesson (1/2)

“Hey, old man Woos, what’s with Lin Xiao?” Momm suspiciously grabbed Woos’ arm, “Tell me the truth, did you secretly carry out special training with him!?”

“Special training? I wanted…” Woos painfully grabbed his head, “It’s already rare enough that this brat doesn’t skip classes, even if I wanted to give him special training, he wouldn’t be willing!”

“Then how does he know chantless instant cast? Don’t lie! He’s only a fourth-level magician right now, right? This advanced casting technique is different from magic chaining, if you didn’t teach him, there’s no way he would be able to learn it himself!” Momm angrily questioned.

He was angered greatly by Lin Xiao hiding his strength, how could Woos not be surprised?

Woos would have never thought that not only did Lin Xiao magic chaining, but also chantless instant cast. Such outstanding talent and ability, yet he’s never even realized it as his teacher!

Many people call Lin Xiao a S-class muddler, although Woos doesn’t agree, he also never thought of Lin Xiao as someone with that much talent. He just thought of Lin Xiao as a good mature student that took care of stuff earnestly, and was much less talented than Caesar.

But now, reality gave him a hard slap to the face.

Lin Xiao was no S-class muddler, he’s a genius magician that has grasped magic chaining and chantless instant cast!

Everyone was fooled by his sloppy appearance.

“Damn brat…” Woos gazed at the youngster on the stage.

If it wasn’t for him meeting such a strong opponent like Shen DaiYing, then Lin Xiao probably wouldn’t have exposed his true strength, right?

Everyone else was desperately displaying their strength, yet he hid his talent and abilities, and didn’t reveal it until he had to.

What the hell was he thinking about?

“Wait! If he hid his true strength this whole time…” Woos suddenly realized something.

If Lin Xiao really hid his true strength this whole time, then is the strength he’s displaying right now, his true strength?

He wouldn’t have something else hidden up his sleeve, right?

Woos and Momm watched Lin Xiao attentively from below the stage, looking forward to what he’ll do next, but Lin Xiao’s expression became more grave.

Shen DaiYing’s ‘Shadow Blink’ and ‘Cherry Dance’ made him sweat.

He had only seen it from the sidelines before, and he only knew that Shen DaiYing was very fast. But after experiencing it firsthand, that wasn’t just speed.

He knew that those two techniques should still be low-level techniques after seeing Moonlight Soul Flower, but its power was horrifying.

Earlier, Shen DaiYing suppressed her aura, evaded Lin Xiao’s magic, and attacked from the back. Even the restricted territory created by magic chaining was useless against ‘Shadow Blink’. If it wasn’t for Lin Xiao anticipating it, he probably would have already lost.

“Sister Ying, I’m already serious, are you not planning on getting serious? That short sword, Soul Slayer, is it not time for it to make its entrance?”

Although he didn’t know the full extent of Shen DaiYing’s strength, but his intuition told him that the long sword, Snow, was just a front, and the truly powerful was the unremarkable dagger, Soul Slayer.

“Soul Slayer? No, it’s not time yet.” Shen DaiYing shook her head, and smiled, “Lin Xiao, are you really serious? From what I know, chantless instant cast isn’t the only casting technique that you know.”

“… Sigh.” Lin Xiao continuously sighed, feeling extremely downcast.

Shen DaiYing already saw him practicing before, and knew his techniques.
