: Youthful Spirit

Chapter 5: Youthful Spirit

After dinner, the group parted ways. Gojo went to his healing-themed seating area, Zhao Manyan went to find his senior, and Mo Fan entered the arena to prepare for his turn to fight.

While searching for the healing-themed seating area, Gojo Satoru asked several classmates, who all looked at him with surprise.

The reason is simple: the healing department, which has always been dominated by girls, suddenly has a boy, and a very handsome one at that, which makes many boys extremely envious.

In the large seating area of ​​the Seitokan, a group of boys from other departments stared at Gojo Satoru with envy, and even some girls were looking at him with predatory eyes.

Under the gaze of this group of people, Gojo Satoru felt somewhat uncomfortable and quickly left this place of trouble.

Before long, he finally saw his classmates from the Healing Department. Bai Tingting, who was sitting in the audience, also noticed Gojo Satoru who had just arrived and waved her hand, saying, "Class monitor, there are empty seats here."

Without any hesitation, Gojo Satoru quickly stepped forward and sat down next to Bai Tingting, saying with a smile, "Thank you, Tingting, for saving this seat for me."

"No...you're welcome," Bai Tingting said, her face slightly flushed.

At this moment, the welcoming ceremony officially begins, and the first speaker is Dean Xiao, one of the deans of Mingzhu Academy.

"Before I begin my speech, I'd like to clarify one thing with you."

"If all you want is to be a respected magician in society, earn a high salary, and live a high-quality life... then I must tell you with certainty that you've come to the wrong place."

"A magician who emerges from the Pearl Academy must possess the ability to change the world and must be a hero capable of protecting humanity."

If anyone only aspires to the former, we can now give you a graduation certificate and a letter of introduction from a prestigious university, allowing you to live that kind of life.

Please do not take up a precious spot at our Pearl Academy. We have no shortage of wealth or fame; what we lack is an eternal heart that pursues the highest magic!

Satoru Gojo sat in the healing department's seat, listening to these domineering remarks, and couldn't help but look at the students around him.

Almost everyone's eyes were sparkling.

That's very true. Fame and fortune pale in comparison to supreme magic.

When he first became the number one sorcerer in the world, he disregarded rules and regarded money as dirt.

It's the same now!

"Today is your day to showcase your abilities! Let's start with our seven main characters, the freshmen of the Summoning Department!"

Dean Xiao didn't say much, nor did he let the other leaders speak one by one. He decisively got to today's topic.

Perhaps at first, many freshmen will think that since they are new to university, they should keep a low profile and not participate in this beast fighting competition.

But after hearing those words, many people probably couldn't hold back.

They had already eliminated all their local competitors in the Magic College Entrance Examination, so why were they still keeping a low profile?

The rare resources provided by universities will not fall into the hands of those who remain silent for no reason.

If you want resources in this prestigious university, you can't remain unknown; you have to fight for them, and compete fiercely!

Gojo Satoru looked at the seven people on the high platform, a glint of silver light flashing in his pale blue eyes that were shrouded in white mist.

Their cultivation levels are rather average. Apart from Mo Fan, the six summoners are only at the initial stage. It seems they won't be able to cause much trouble.

Wu Tiao Wu couldn't help but sigh softly for Mo Fan.

"Many people might be dissatisfied; why should they become the focus of attention as soon as they enroll in the Summoning Department?"

"It doesn't matter. If you defeat them, you will be the real protagonists today!" Dean Xiao said loudly.

As Dean Xiao finished speaking, the entire arena instantly erupted in excitement, especially the spirited freshmen, who were all eager to defeat the Summoning Department and become the center of attention!

-

"We're all in the prime of our lives, so who would want to fall behind?" Gojo Satoru murmured softly from the healing seats.

Hearing this, Bai Tingting, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but nudge his shoulder and ask, "Isn't the class monitor only 18? Why is he acting so mature?"

"..." Gojo Satoru was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Yes, I'm also at the prime of my life."

"You've always been the class monitor, we're still freshmen!"

-

"So, who wants to go first?" Dean Xiao asked with a smile as he looked at the seven new students from the Summoning Department.

"I'll go first!" One of the seven, a rather large fat man, stepped forward. "I'll show them what I'm capable of!"

"Alright, then the stage is yours for the rest of the time."

This person's dimensional beast is a white-armored war serpent, which is almost a deadly weapon among novice mages.

However, those who could enter the Pearl Academy were no ordinary people. Even with no mid-level cultivators present, less than four groups managed to defeat the white-armored war beast.

Fifteen people is its limit.

The second to appear was a short, thin boy whose dimensional beast was nothing compared to the fat boy from before.

It was merely an immature ghost wolf beast, and its combat power was negligible.

Sure enough, he barely managed to eliminate two people before being outmaneuvered by a Shadow-type student behind him.

The third to appear was a long-haired youth, whose aura was far stronger than the previous two.

His summoned beast is a Rock Demon, possessing some ability to manipulate earth, and its combat power is much more domineering than that of the White-Armored Warrior.

Its only drawback is its enormous size, which greatly reduces its mobility and makes it difficult to pose a threat to fast mages.

As Gojo Satoru had predicted, the Rock Demon's weaknesses were completely exposed after the first few groups probed. The later groups used guerrilla tactics to wear him down, and finally, they took him down at the cost of 25 lives.

The fourth person was a rather arrogant fellow, walking with an air of arrogance, but his aura was average.

It's worth mentioning that this person's dimensional beast is a flying bone-eating demon!

Seeing this, Gojo Satoru understood why this person was so arrogant. The Bone Eater's combat power was actually not as good as the White Armored Warrior and the Rock Demon, but it could fly, which was enough to make a novice mage hesitate.

However, this is Mingzhu Academy, one of the top universities in the country. How could there not be intermediate-level mages among the freshmen?

Under Gojo Satoru's gaze, an equally obese man walked up to the platform, and a knowing look appeared in his eyes as he looked at the other man.

Mid-tier Ice-type!

Wow, if I'm not mistaken, that bone-eating demon will probably be instantly entangled by the mid-level ice lock.

Just as Gojo had imagined, the servant-level bone-eating demon had no chance of resisting against mid-level magic and plummeted from the sky in an instant.

The battle actually ended quickly, but the uproar from the crowd never ceased.

The domineering power of intermediate-level magic was fully demonstrated at this moment, and the Bone Eater, which made all the beginner students of all departments hesitate, was dealt with so easily.

After dealing with the Bone Eater, the fat man ordered the last two to attack together, seemingly intent on wiping out the summoning class.

However, according to Gojo Satoru's observation, the fat man seemed to know Mo Fan, which is why he specifically challenged the three people other than Mo Fan.

When an intermediate player challenges a beginner, the outcome is obvious.

Bo Shi!

Without much effort, the fat man took care of the two summoners.
