161 A Couple?

Holy Magic Academy. Practicing Yard.

Everyone was shocked as they are currently seeing something really outrageous.

Cragus Davida then spoke.

"How can you produce such great power?"

Zhihao scratched his head pondering for an answer, and after a while, he thought of something as he shouted.

"Shoot!"

The thirty spear looking flames immediately rushed towards the Mannequin, one of the spears hit as it turned into a very small arrow-like flame, while the rest of the spears directly went past the Mannequin like it was some illusion.

Zhihao scratched his nose as he replied.

"It's just an illusion technique that I was studying before, I wanted to test it, but I didn't think that it could actually produce so much."

Cragus sighed as he shook his head and spoke.

"So It's a Mirage spell?"

Zhihao casually nodded as he smiled."

Cragus smiled at him and spoke.

"2nd-Grade Magic, Mirage, That's good, but you should've told me before, you nearly got me there."

Everyone nodded in understanding.

"Next."

Ying Mai then walked forward as she prepared herself, remembering what happened earlier, she tried to prevent herself from doing the same mistake as Zhihao and tried to minimize how little the Mana she could gather.

Zhihao was about to remind her to be on a low-profile, but then, remembering how he failed, he casually shook his head and walked a little further.

Ying Mai immediately formed a flame arrow in the sky, but what happened next shocked everyone.

The flame arrow that Ying Mai had made started to solidify, not like Zhihao's or Cragus flame arrow! it is becoming solid as armors started to form around it.

"This... This..."

Cragus became speechless, not knowing what else to say.

Zhihao then quickly formed an alibi and spoke.

"Ah! Ying Mai actually specializes in Flame powers, and she has an innate talent in modifying spell type magic."

Cragus became shocked as he spoke.

"This... there haven't been any Magicians in the past thousands of years that can modify magic, what great talent! All of you continue."

"Yes!"

Cragus immediately walked towards Ying Mai and spoke.

"Your name is Ying Mai, right? You will be one of the pillars of the Human Race, you should go to the Dragon Blaze Academy, they focus mainly on Flame Magic, they would help you improve much better than our Academy, Every head of our school will permit it."

Ying Mai was about to speak, but before she could, Zhihao walked in front of Ying Mai.

"Mister Cragus, I think, that, it is up for us to decide something like that, Ying Mai and I won't be separated, even if it's both within the same Empire."

Everyone lining up for the Practical Magic testing immediately looked at Zhihao as they started a murmur amongst themselves.

"They are a couple?!"

"Wow! I didn't expect something like that to happen."

"Why not? An Awesome handsome guy like that needs a gorgeously beautiful woman in his side."

"Yep, It's a very acceptable reality."

"Well, I don't care now, since he's taken, I`ll go with the other one."

Hearing these chatters, Ying Mai smiled beautifully at them as she bowed and blushed, she was extremely satisfied.

What Zhihao actually meant was that the three of them wouldn't need to be separated as they wanted to stick together, so for them not to get find out.

Cragus smiled at him and wanting to reject it, then he just shook his head and accepted everything immediately.

"But, I`ll try to contact the Dragon Blaze Academy, if they could send some people here to help Ying Mai develop her powers furthermore."

Zhihao just sighed as he nodded at his words.

Cragus then looked at the students as he shouted: "Continue!"

"Yes!"

Ma Dong shook his head trying to stop his laughter from coming out of his mouth, he then started to gather the mana inside his palm trying his best to only manipulate a very small part of it.

A flame formed within his hand, but something weird is happening, the flame arrow looked so bulky instead, like a pig shot by an arrow from his rear through his mouth, everyone started to laugh at how weird it is.

Ma Dong then heard a voice inside his head.

'Throw it upward, don't throw it at the Mannequin.'

Yes, It is from Zhihao, Ma Dong immediately threw it upward and after it had reached a kilometer away, it exploded, the explosion looked like a very powerful one, comparable to a nuclear explosion.

All the ones that had laughed before shut their mouth immediately, witnessing such destructive power, their laughter was transformed into awe.

Cragus frowned as he touched his forehead, his only thought now is.

'What the hell is wrong with these three... One has illusion magic, one has modification magic, and another one has explosion magic...'

That question is now mostly contained within everyone mind, witnessing the scene today, they are either struck with awe or fearing the outcome if those things actually hit them.

Cragus sighed as he continued.

"Next!"

Within a building, two silhouettes are observing the whole thing at the roof as they looked at what had just happened. one of them spoke, a very feminine and seductive voice came out.

"Are they the Heroes of our Human Race?"

The other one immediately shook his head and replied.

"The heroes are within the Royal Empire, I had received news that they only arrived yesterday, if they rushed here, it would at least take 2 months, and 1-month using flying magic.

The Female looked sharply at Zhihao as she spoke.

"Are those three spies from the Demon Race?"

"I don't know, but that guy, the one that started the Practice, you are a Magician, were those really illusions?" The Massive Man with two heavy swords in his back asked.

The Female shook her head and replied: "I don't know myself, Either it's an illusion that carries real power or... that Young Man is at least at a Sage level like me, maybe stronger."

The Massive Man frowned, if that really is the case, they either received a great reinforcement or the end of their human race.

The Female then looked at the other one and spoke.

"Let us only observe for now."

"What if... they are spies?" The Man asked.

The Female immediately frowned thinking of another solution as she sighed and looked at the Man.

"Let us still watch, Our powers were only enough to defend the whole Empire, and if we fought another Unknown enemy, the Human territory will immediately be breached."

The Man frowned sadly as he spoke: "We're already in our 50s, if it continues, our Human race will immediately be extinct after we die, I wish those heroes become stronger faster, it will be better if they kill the Demon King."

The Female nodded as they both continued to observe.

After a while, the practical test ended with no more suspense or surprises, all of them returned to school as he spoke of two things.

One is how awesome their new classmate's abilities are, and the other one is how a great couple is inside the Academy.

Rumors about it started growing by every flowing time and immediately scattered through the whole Academy.

The Great Couple, Zhihao and Ying Mai, the Heavenly Pair.
