Chapter 156 Early Graduation, Lingling
After letting Asharuya feel the master's majesty, Luo Chen walked out of the Goddess Palace refreshed.
Asharuya has been Luo Chen's person for a long time. If Xinxia wasn't too shy, Luo Chen would even want to have a sisterly meal with her.
After dealing with the relevant matters at the Parthenon, Luo Chen decided to return to the Demon City.
With the "First Protection of One Movement" consisting of 86 layers of magic constructed in a single thought, Luo Chen and his companions crossed the entire Asia and returned to their residence in the Demon City.
Xinxia and Yumian did not ask much about Luo Chen's space teleportation magic which was comparable to a forbidden spell.
The first thing Luo Chen did when he returned to the Magic City was naturally to return to Mingzhu Academy.
Since he had already broken through to become a super-class mage, there was naturally no need for him to stay in Mingzhu Academy to attend classes. In other words, apart from Dean Xiao, there was basically no one else in Mingzhu Academy who could teach him.
Instead of continuing to quarrel with students in Mingzhu Academy, it would be better to graduate early.
As soon as Luo Chen stepped into the school, he caused a sensation in the entire school!
"Look! Senior Luo Chen is alive!"
"The hero who won first place in the World Academy Competition and saved the ancient capital? Why is he here at Mingzhu Academy?"
"Oh my god, Mingzhu Academy is not lying. Senior Luo Chen really is studying in this school! Senior Luo Chen and I are actually alumni!"
"Boss Luo Chen, please, give me an autograph. My girlfriend really admires you..."
Even Luo Chen himself did not expect that his reputation in the country would be so loud?
Of course, Luo Chen obviously underestimated his own influence.
Originally, Luo Chen thought that even if he became the champion of the World Academy Competition, not many people would pay attention to him. After all, Mo Fan, who was ranked first in the Chinese Academy in the original novel, often received the same treatment...
But Luo Chen overlooked one problem, that is, his situation was completely different from Mo Fan in the original work.
Since the beginning of the World University Games, Luo Chen has been the pillar of the entire Chinese team.
Except for the match against the Egyptian team, where Luo Chen did not take any action, in other matches, Luo Chen defeated his opponents within a minute!
Even at a high level, he could single-handedly create power that was close to that of super-class magic!
Even across the world, he has attracted the attention of countless young people and has a certain reputation in the world, not to mention his hometown China!
Luo Chen's terrifying strength far surpassed that of his peers, and his heroic feat of saving the ancient capital, instantly made him the most sought-after young figure in all of China.
Even Mingzhu Academy has begun using Luo Chen as its signboard to recruit students.
Even Dean Xiao had to sigh that the effect of using Luo Chen for publicity was really good. Mingzhu Academy even attracted many geniuses who originally planned to go to Dijing Academy.
And these geniuses came here just for Luo Chen's reputation.
Luo Chen was dealt with helplessly. After the younger classmates gathered around him, he pushed through the crowd and walked towards the dean's office.
..............................
"How is it? It feels good to be the center of attention, right?"
Dean Xiao saw Luo Chen coming and asked with a smile on his face.
Luo Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"I would rather they hate me, at least then I don't have to sign autographs for them to deal with them."
"This is in line with your personality, by the way..."
Dean Xiao smiled and nodded, then his gaze towards Luo Chen paused. After a moment of silence, he spoke.
"...You have achieved a breakthrough to the Super Level?"
Dean Xiao asked with some excitement and disbelief in his words.
"Dean, you have a very good eye!"
Luo Chen did not respond directly, but he also admitted in disguise that he had broken through to the super-class mage level.
Dean Xiao said several good words in a row, unable to calm his excitement.
"You are probably the youngest super-class mage in all of China! Pearl Academy has nothing left to teach you."
"Dean, are you going to kick me out?"
Luo Chen asked with a smile on his face.
"If you don't want to leave, you can stay. There will always be a place for you in Mingzhu Academy."
"Forget it, I can't always be a student..."
Luo Chen smiled and shook his head.
"You... who said I wanted you to be a student? I know you came here today most likely to graduate early.
But it is true that your ability is probably stronger than most of Mingzhu’s instructors, and Mingzhu can’t teach you anything.
However, are you interested in taking on a mentoring role?"
Just as Luo Chen was about to respond, Dean Xiao quickly said:
"Don't rush to refuse. I'm letting you be my mentor, but it's just a title. You can be an honorary mentor and I'll pay you a salary."
"Dean, I haven't even graduated yet, and you want me to be your advisor? Besides, what do you want from me being an honorary advisor?"
Hearing Luo Chen's response, Dean Xiao rolled his eyes.
"If you are not able to graduate with your ability, how many people would Mingzhu Academy persuade to drop out every year?
Your ability is much stronger than most tutors, so it is normal to have your name on the list. What's the point?
Your name is in the tutor column, which will help Pearl Academy recruit students!"
"So you're using me as a living advertisement, but, just putting a name on it is fine."
Luo Chen still has some feelings for Mingzhu Academy, and Dean Xiao has also helped Luo Chen a lot.
Luo Chen would naturally not refuse such a favor that only required him to put his name on the list...
However, in the future, those students who come to Luo Chen for his title of honorary tutor may find that the honorary tutor may not come to teach once a year.
Then they might realize that they have been fooled...
But they may not regret it. After all, Mingzhu Academy is not much worse than Dijing Academy. It's just a matter of one willing to fight and the other willing to be beaten...
"That's good that you're willing. It just so happens that several of the mentors and professors who can lead outstanding graduates are all engaged in research, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to find a suitable mentor to guide you in a short period of time.
If you graduate with excellence, I will give you a special approval, and you will be considered graduated from now on." Dean Xiao said.
"So good? Don't they usually have missions?"
Luo Chen said in surprise.
"You don't need that kind of mission to complete your final training. If you have time, go back to Mingzhu Academy to visit your juniors and give them lessons. That will be your graduation mission."
"Okay, I'll take this mission then."
..............................
After leaving Dean Xiao's office, Luo Chen returned to Qingtian Hunting House to see Lingling, whom he had not seen for a long time.
At the door of the old store, Lingling, with her long ponytails, was sitting on a stool as usual, shaking her cute little legs and reading a book in her hands.
However, Lingling has obviously grown a lot taller at this time, and her whole body exudes the aura of a pure loli, so cute that it will make your nose bleed, and she is popular with both men and women.
The moment Lingling saw Luo Chen, she was stunned for a moment, then stood up in surprise and pounced on Luo Chen.
"Luo Chen, you're finally back!"
