Starting as a Magical Girl, I Alone Shall Rule for Eternity

Jiang Si wasn't in any rush to skip class and go find Cripple.

If the other party really wanted to fight, he wouldn't leave easily. No need to hurry. He would use these few Chinese and English classes to focus on reviewing, basically not listening to the teacher's lectures.

Regarding learning methods, he always believed that obediently listening in class was the least efficient approach, especially for Chinese and English classes, which somewhat felt like repetitive time-wasting.

These subjects were most efficient when actively memorized on one's own. He only came to school three or four times a week, attended very few classes, but seriously reviewed and memorized previously forgotten content during each class. In fact, he had already progressed to third-year high school material.

His progress was much faster than those who obediently attended every class. Of course, this was also because he had already learned everything once before, so review efficiency being higher was normal.

As for physics, chemistry, biology, and mathematics, only biology was something he wasn't good at in his previous life. Just remembering key points to avoid losing marks was enough. For the other subjects, he had already finished reviewing all the third-year content.

Getting into a first-tier university shouldn't be difficult. The BH City exam papers were clearly much easier than those from his previous life, probably around the level of Beijing exam papers.

During break times, PE teachers would take students to run two laps around the playground. This wasn't exactly PE class. Since they didn't do calisthenics on Saturdays and the school didn't want students idle during breaks, they changed it to having students run.

Many students complained bitterly. Most would rather sit around doing nothing in school than come out to run. The weather had been getting hotter recently, and running two laps would make anyone sweat.

Especially since No. 4 High School's playground was huge - two laps were truly brutal.

For Jiang Si, these two laps weren't even enough for a warm-up.

Today's four classes would allow him to finish reviewing the third-year content. After that, coming to school wouldn't mean much. He could focus on training at Azure Cloud Sect, ask Bingtang for some predicted exam papers before finals as a precaution, and have the principal arrange his college entrance exam after finals.

His recent training had reached a bottleneck. He needed to buy some supplements, then try Azure Cloud Sect's magic fusion experiment again to alter magic properties, which would allow further physical refinement through magic.

Although he failed last time, he could feel the magic penetrating deeper, and his seed showed some unusual activity. However, this experiment was quite dangerous and needed optimization.

As long as he could complete it, even if it didn't elevate his body to the early Seedling stage, it could break through his current half step to Sprout Great Perfection and reach half step to Sprout Limit Great Perfection.

"Jiang Si, that person has been staring at you..."

When the running ended, the teacher didn't rush students back to the classroom but let them walk around the playground to rest.

Li Yi came over to Jiang Si's side this way.

Although both their classrooms were on the same floor, Li Yi was actually a first-year student. No. 4 High School didn't divide floors by grade level but by academic performance. Jiang Si's class was at the bottom, so they were placed on the first-year floor.

If Bingtang hadn't insisted on following Jiang Si, she probably wouldn't have been assigned to this class. Her grades were firmly the top in her grade, unchallengeable by anyone.

But aside from Bingtang and Jiang Si, few other students in this class were potential first-tier university candidates. And since Jiang Si frequently missed exams, the class's overall academic performance was predictable...

Although Silver Lotus's grades were among the top in first year, they were still slightly inferior to Bingtang's. She could only maintain top five, occasionally taking first place.

Even so, with her appearance and personality, such grades were enough to make her a focus of attention among first-year students.

Approaching like this inevitably attracted many gazes.

Jiang Si clearly heard the girl behind her, probably Silver Lotus's friend, timidly whisper: "Hurry up and leave, Li Yi! You'll get beaten up!"

Li Yi just made a "it's fine" gesture.

Some boys also nonchalantly moved closer.

If Jiang Si dared to lay hands on Li Yi here, they would probably swarm him immediately.

They all wanted to show off in front of the girls. With a crowd charging forward, even if they couldn't win through fighting, they could exhaust Jiang Si.

As for Jiang Si, he was silently reciting the third English passage.

He wasn't very good at English essays, so he used the clumsy method of memorizing all the English passages he'd studied, then disassembling and piecing together memorized passages for his essays.

Basic scores were never low.

Generally, three to four passages with minimal grammar and vocabulary repetition were sufficient.

These were all things he'd memorized in his previous life. Just refreshing his memory could jog his memory, requiring little time.

Of course he had no time to care about the surroundings. When Silver Lotus, or rather Li Yi, came to talk, he just glanced at Cripple outside the school gate who was gripping the railings and staring intently at him, saying, "Don't worry about it."

"I can help you deal with him."

Li Yi whispered: "After transforming, I can make him hallucinate. Then he won't be able to find you."

"Be careful about exposure."

"Relax! I have the Disaster Control Bureau backing me. No one will find out!"

No, precisely because it's the Disaster Control Bureau that makes it completely unreliable.

The fact that you're a Magical Girl is already public knowledge within Azure Cloud Sect.

Jiang Si still shook his head, "Magical Girls shouldn't bully ordinary people."

"It's... not really bullying. He wants to pick a fight, I'm just making him hallucinate..."

"He just wants to spar with me."

Jiang Si said calmly, "Sparring exchange, not picking fights."

Yeah right.

Watching Jiang Si head back to the classroom alone, Li Yi immediately felt somewhat annoyed.

Does he like fighting that much? Calling it sparring? People fighting outside school never hold back. She knew about this Cripple - he was notoriously arrogant and vicious.

No matter how much Jiang Si trained or how skilled he became, getting stabbed with a knife was still dangerous.

But Jiang Si's indifferent attitude still made her feel a little unhappy.

I'm concerned about him, you know...

Her deskmate only hurried over to pull her away after Jiang Si had left, "What are you doing, Li Yi? Suddenly talking to such a bad student is too dangerous. What if he had attacked?"

"He wouldn't. There are so many people at school, he wouldn't dare." Li Yi said confidently, "And I'm not afraid of him."

"Don't get too close to such poor students, it'll affect your studies."

Facing her deskmate's concern, Li Yi was somewhat speechless.

How could just talking affect studies?

She glanced outside again, feeling something was off but unable to pinpoint what exactly.

Because she sensed danger from that person, she had specifically gone to warn Jiang Si, planning to help him.

But ended up being ignored like this.

Hmph, daring to disrespect me like this? I, Silver Lotus, am no pushover either.

Wait until you get beaten up, Jiang Si, and suffer some hardship. Then I'll help you.

But she was also worried about being perceived as petty and vindictive.

Torn by these thoughts, Li Yi didn't absorb anything from the next two classes.

...

Zhang Song had been in a very bad mood recently. Very bad.

So bad that he even started hoping a Disaster Beast would appear at school someday and smash everything to pieces.

He heard that a nearby middle school had been attacked by a Disaster Beast before, with their dormitory building completely destroyed.

Why not at No. 4 High School?

If only it could smash No. 4 High School to pieces, preferably crushing both the principal and Jiang Si to death.

They say Disaster Beasts are manifestations of resentment. With his resentment this strong, why couldn't one be born...

He had been enduring for years and was about to be promoted to academic affairs director, but because of Jiang Si, he got no outstanding teacher evaluations each semester, no bonuses. This stubborn stain that couldn't be removed - no other class would accept him.

When he suggested expulsion, the principal refused. That old fool gave him psychological counseling to accept Jiang Si, but offered no help for the bonuses and evaluations he lost because of Jiang Si!

Zhang Song knew that with Jiang Si around, other classes would object to his outstanding evaluations, and his promotion to academic affairs director wouldn't be convincing. But what did that have to do with him? You, principal, made me suffer like this and won't lift a finger to help!

Damn them all!

When noon dismissal came and he left the office, he saw students crowding outside the school gate.

He immediately roared: "What's going on? Why are you crowding here instead of going home after school?"

As he pushed through the students, he saw that student who infuriated him beyond measure.

Jiang Si.

That guy outside, seemed to be called Cripple or something - he couldn't remember.

What promising future did any of those street thugs have? They were all worthless trash, garbage for life.

Zhang Song always looked down on them. Only knew how to bully students every day - what kind of people were they?

As a teacher, he naturally regarded such hopeless minors as useless students. Squeezing forward, he shouted, "What's everyone doing? Security! What are you eating for!"

The security guard from the security booth said, "I've already called the police. Don't get involved..."

Actually, outside school gates, security guards didn't dare provoke these people either.

They were security guards. Those who used to meddle too much often got ambushed and beaten.

Why risk their lives for a few thousand yuan monthly salary? Calling the police was the correct choice.

"Then what do we need security for? I'll have the principal fire you when I get back!"

Cursing as he moved forward, he saw Cripple talking to Jiang Si. Faintly, he actually heard Cripple's words.

"Aren't you good at fighting? Today either you beat me to death, or I beat you to death..."

"Let's not fight at the school gate. This isn't appropriate. Let's go to the alley over there..."

"Damn, who's this guy? So annoying. Can he shut up..."

Zhang Song was still roaring as he moved forward, reaching out to push Cripple aside, wanting to pull Jiang Si back.

Then the next second.

Cripple suddenly turned around and slapped him, sending Zhang Song flying up slightly!

His glasses smashed against the roadside curb. Zhang Song fell to the ground, then spat blood from his mouth.

Students at the school gate immediately screamed.

"I told you to shut the fuck up, didn't you hear me! Ah!"

Cripple's roar was enormous, instantly suppressing the students' screams.

The middle-aged man struggled to sit up from the ground, holding his swollen right cheek, his expression somewhat dazed. That slap had stunned him.

"You..."

He still wanted to say something. As a homeroom teacher who had managed students long enough, he was accustomed to being condescending and bossy toward kids this age. After the initial daze passed, pain and humiliation surged up, his first reaction being anger.

He wanted to ask where his parents were.

But when Cripple's violent gaze turned toward him, he immediately fell silent.

The methods used against students were ineffective against outsiders...

Suddenly realizing this, he finally felt fear.

Holding his face, he laboriously crawled aside, picked up his glasses with slightly cracked lenses, trembling as he put them on, not daring to speak anymore, just looking up.

That student he had previously scolded, hit, who never fought back - Jiang Si - stood there expressionlessly, not even looking at him, completely disregarding him.

Just watching Cripple ahead.

"Let's go, go!"

Cripple's tone carried excitement, anticipation, and some apprehension.

Cripple... was afraid of Jiang Si...

When Zhang Song realized this, he swallowed blood-tinged saliva, his emotions momentarily complex.

Seeing Jiang Si about to follow Cripple into the alley, Zhang Song still got up, took two steps forward, and called out, "Jiang Si..."

Jiang Si turned around frowning, glanced at him, and Zhang Song immediately stepped back in fright.

Cripple's slap had turned him into a startled bird.

"Get lost. Don't get in the way."

However, Jiang Si didn't attack, just spoke impolitely.

If this had happened at school before, these words would have driven him insane.

He wouldn't be satisfied without kicking Jiang Si a few times.

But now, he couldn't muster any anger.

This was outside school. When Jiang Si said this, he had no confidence to refute.

Not even the courage to reply.

After Jiang Si followed Cripple away, disappearing from sight, no one dared to follow.

Zhang Song looked back. All the students crowding at the gate were watching him.

"What, what are you looking at."

He originally wanted to roar out like before, vent his anger on these students.

But suddenly, fear prevented him from easily erupting in anger like before.

"Hurry up and leave. Don't get involved in such matters."

He stammered, holding his burning right cheek.

Some students were secretly laughing - he saw them.

Shame and anger mixed together, but the earlier fear prevented these emotions from erupting too strongly.

After completely losing face, even erupting would only make him a laughingstock.

So he just waved his hand, dispersing the students, "Go, go, everyone leave quickly! Be careful on your way home!"

School was students' ivory tower. Students at school hadn't experienced society's harsh lessons - naive and immature.

But this applied to teachers too.

Zhang Song limped toward the teaching building, rubbing his slightly reddened eyes.

So he, this teacher with decades of teaching experience, was also someone protected by the school's ivory tower...

...

For Cripple, he needed to bring the person to the adult who granted him power, and it had to be somewhere not easily seen by others.

The alley was sufficiently remote with many escape routes.

But since Jiang Si started practical combat training with people, almost no one came here anymore.

Cripple still remembered his first fight with Jiang Si - full of confidence and vigor.

Later being beaten like a stray dog, his pride and dignity repeatedly trampled by Jiang Si! 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

But now, he wouldn't be stepped on anymore!

Infinite power already coursed through his entire body!

He laughed maniacally: "Jiang Si! Hahaha! You never imagined, I've changed!"

Looking at the seed on the other's forehead, Jiang Si took off his backpack and casually threw it aside, asking: "Where?"

"You'll know soon enough!"

Cripple stomped his right foot on the ground, launching himself forward like a cannonball!

Facing the charging Cripple, Jiang Si neither dodged nor avoided, slightly twisting his body, gathering strength, then his right leg swung forward like an axe, brutally meeting the charge head-on!

The unstoppable Cripple was violently smashed backward, crashing against the alley wall, slumping down weakly, spitting blood from his mouth, staring blankly at Jiang Si.

Brushing dust from his pants leg, Jiang Si lowered his right leg, cracked his neck, then asked again, "What's different?"

"Tell me."
