Chapter 493: Chapter 162: Disappointment_1

"This isn’t fair, Professor!"

Hearing the Professor’s words, Li Meng immediately raised her voice and complained, "What we want to see is the number one beauty in the wizarding world, not this nameless little fox-lady!"

She was referring to the little fox-lady, Su Ya, standing next to the podium.

To the other students, this little fox lady was likely in her teens, about the same age as Li Meng, definitely not Su Shijun.

As for her fox-lady identity, it was also very easy to determine. Because the ribbon on her tail had peeked out from under her black skirt, gently swaying with the soft breeze – even when Li Meng stood up to make her complaint, she was constantly looking at the tip of that tail.

Zheng Qing would stake his Merlin Medal that if this wasn’t a classroom, and if there wasn’t a desk separating Li Meng and Su Ya, the little witch would definitely have pounced at that fluffy tail.

"Meng Meng!"

Hearing Li Meng’s disrespectful words, Jiang Yu was instantly infuriated, pulling her younger cousin back into her seat.

"You... you are the real ’only one’!"

On the podium, Su Ya widened her eyes, glaring at the little witch a few meters away who was about her age. Her tail shot up in anger, "I... I have a name! I’m called Su Ya!"

"Oh no!" Zheng Qing, who had been half-bent under the desk, nearly buried his head in the drawer.

"Su Ya?" Xin Fat Man scratched his chin, sitting in his seat twisting back and forth, muttering thoughtfully: "Why does it sound so familiar? I feel like I’ve heard this name somewhere..."

Xiao Xiao flipped open her notebook, checked it, and gave the young scholarship student a significant stare.

Zheng Qing waved his hands repeatedly, begging for peace.

"Little fox-lady?" On the podium, Old Yao seemed to be confused by Li Meng’s words.

But he glanced at the two guests nearby and understood immediately.

Aside from the Astronomy Class 08-1 students and Old Yao on the podium, there were only two strangers in the classroom.

One was the little fox-lady, Su Ya, and the other, was that tall witch.

At this moment, this witch was folding her arms, tilting her head, idly looking at the view outside the window – apparently, the monotone blue sky was more attractive than the faces of the young wizards in the room.

"This is, Su Shijun, Councilor Su."

The Professor extended his hand, pointing to the tall witch. He gestured for the students: "This is the Councilor Su you all have been longing to see... If you have any inquiries, any questions, hurry up and ask."

"The time of Councilor Su is very precious... I hope you can ask questions that match your status and are in line with the temperament of our institute."

"Don’t ask about those nonsensical gossip news."

"And don’t keep on asking for her autograph."

...

Upon hearing Old Yao’s confirmation, Zheng Qing couldn’t help but raise his head to take a few more glances at the witch.

Although he had been mentally prepared before, but after really knowing that she was Su Shijun, the look in his eyes naturally held a bit more scrutiny—

For example, although her jawline is tight and smooth, her chin line very clear, but her slightly long face and sharp eyebrows gave people a feeling of not being welcomed.

Another example, her figure is great, her temperament exceptional, but the bright red robe she was wearing made her seem less attractive, giving off the feeling that she didn’t know how to dress.

No matter how you look at it, on the whole, Zheng Qing felt somewhat disappointed.

After all, he had heard from more than one wizard about this ’number one beauty in the wizarding world,’ but seeing her in person, she didn’t seem to live up to her reputation.

She was indeed pretty, but not unparalled beauty in the world.

There are different kinds of beauty, even in this classroom, there were quite a few beautiful witches.

Seemingly noticing the scrutiny from the scholarship student, Su Shijun turned her head, giving him a surprised glance.

Zheng Qing’s gaze didn’t have time to look away. He could only chuckle awkwardly before shifting his gaze.

At that time, he only noticed that the atmosphere around him had begun to stir once again.

...

Although everyone could sense that two unfamiliar wizards had walked into the classroom, before Old Yao clarified, most of the students in the class unconsciously ignored the tall witch.

Even when Old Yao clearly stated that Su Shijun was in this classroom, many people still couldn’t focus their attention on her.

Every time they rested their gaze on the witch, for one reason or another, they couldn’t help but look away.

Perhaps it was a speck of dust sparkling with colors in the sunlight, maybe it was a small elf above the blackboard flapping its wings, some even had auditory hallucinations, always thinking someone was calling them from behind.

Clearly, this was abnormal.

Under mutual discussion, more and more people noticed this strange phenomenon.

"Could it be that I lack the eyes to appreciate beauty?" Xin Fat Man pulled out a small mirror from his watch, examining his bulging, goldfish-like eyes, sighing endlessly.

"It must be because she just promoted to Grand Wizard, and hasn’t yet completely mastered her abilities!"

Zhang Ji Xin explained sagely to his companions: "I’ve heard from my elders that each time a wizard promotes, it’s like a metamorphosis... The wizard has to start from zero, bit by bit, to regain control of their power."

"If she can’t fully control her power, then the magic power that seeps out will naturally affect the surroundings."

"Being a Grand Wizard...unconsciously affecting the perception of ordinary wizards around her is undoubtedly a cinch."

Zhang Ji Xin comes from a renowned family in the wizarding world, and his elder’s words naturally held quite a persuasive effect.

Many were convinced by this explanation.

"It might also be because of those glasses." Xiao Xiao adjusted her glasses, whispering, "If I remember correctly, Councilor Su doesn’t wear glasses... So there must be something fishy about the glasses she’s wearing."

There were challenges, of course, but there were also ways to overcome them.

This was also a time that truly tested a wizard’s abilities—some students pulled out eye potions from their pockets, trying to use the power of the magic potion to focus their attention; others continued to pat ’tranquility talismans’ on their bodies, trying to use talismans to control their fleeting attention.

By all means, there were those rare ’decisive’ wizards, that used the pain of needle pricks and knife cuts to force their concentration.

All manner of methods varied, leaving Zheng Qing in astonishment.

"Lend me a few ’tranquility talismans’, I’ll return them to you later!" Xin Fat Man reached out to Zheng Qing, while wondering, "Don’t you plan to use a few for yourself... Now isn’t the time to be stingy."

"I don’t need them." The young scholarship student vaguely answered, hurriedly taking out a few talismans from his pocket and shoving them into the fat man’s hands.

"I owe you one!" As the fat man bowed, he turned back and patted a few talisman papers on his face.

You all might be disappointed."

The young scholarship student sighed in his heart, unable to help but raise his head again to look at Su Shijun.
