Ren Chenfeng was also extremely disgusted and hurriedly straightened his clothes to cover up his embarrassment.
"Tch~" Xia Xiang ignored them, crossed her arms, and walked out of the classroom with a smug look on her face. "People who are afraid of ghosts can't beat me~ I'm so strong that even ghosts are afraid of me~"
"Hey, wait a minute!" The two of them snapped out of their daze and immediately chased after them.
"What's going on? How come someone here is using superpowers?" Ren Chenfeng asked first.
Although Xia Xiang didn't want to answer his question, she still wanted to show off her knowledge, so she pretended to be profound and said, "You guys don't know this, do you?"
One arm was draped over the other's shoulders.
“You know about elementary schools that have special classes for students with superpowers, but you don’t know that many junior high and high schools used to have special classes for students with superpowers.”
"???" The two looked completely bewildered.
As far as they know, most children from gifted families only have an elementary school education in the Muggle world.
Firstly, after entering junior high school, those with superpowers need to undergo specialized training in order to better inherit their family's superpowers or prepare to join the Imperial Guard.
Secondly, they don't need diplomas to find jobs in the Muggle world. Their families all have family businesses, so they don't need to participate in the Muggle-style exam-oriented education.
Those who study in Muggle schools are generally like the Xia family before, who are going to live in anonymity and fade out of the superpower world, or they are orphans who will need to support themselves in the future.
Therefore, the two expressed doubts about this.
"I'm talking about a long time ago. You can tell by their clothes; they're so vintage," Xia Xiang continued, explaining.
"I was so startled I didn't even notice," Hu Yanjing recalled the scene. "Then why was it canceled?"
"Because it was later discovered that concentrating people with superpowers actually increased the risk of exposure, it was gradually phased out." Xia Xiang released the two of them.
"What does that have to do with what happened in the classroom just now?" Ren Chenfeng asked again.
"Because in the previous class, or rather, the class teacher of that class was a superpowered person, they naturally used their superpowers without restraint in front of their own people."
"As you all know, starting at this stage, anyone who wants to join the Imperial Guard needs to go out into combat and can't stay in school. Some clever people have created a special ability to make an image sit there in their place to deal with inspections."
“Isn’t that even scarier?” Hu Yanjing questioned.
"It wasn't like that at first. It was very realistic before. As long as you didn't touch it, you would never be able to tell. Plus, my classmates worked together to keep it a secret for a long time."
"But this building has been abandoned for a long time, how come it's still here? It's kind of scary." Hu Yanjing had just been so frightened that he got goosebumps.
Xia Xiang stroked her chin and boldly guessed, "It's probably because the excessive use of superpowers caused changes in the spatial magnetic field, which led to the previous scene. But as the energy is consumed, it should gradually disappear."
"But doesn't this also expose our superpowers? Won't the Iron Guard come and deal with it?" Ren Chenfeng was a little worried that the Iron Guard might not know about the problem.
"I don't think so. After all, that place is so desolate. Even people like us who were born into families with superpowers thought we saw a ghost. Muggles would probably just treat it as a paranormal event." Hu Yanjing thought back. He had never heard any similar rumors.
Xia Xiang thought for a moment, then an idea came to her mind. "I do have a rough idea, would you like to hear it?"
"What?" The two looked at Xia Xiang, who was laughing sarcastically, with confusion, feeling that her idea might be a little dangerous.
—After school—
Xia Xiang learned that Jiu Wu wouldn't be coming today, so she sent Jiu Lai away early and brought her two new underlings who wanted to defeat her to the classroom that had been "haunted" before.
"What are we doing here again?" Hu Yanjing was reluctant to enter the classroom. He didn't really want to come, but he had to to save face for his new friend. It wasn't that he was afraid of ghosts!
"Ritter - Restoration - Ura Baha!" Xia Xiang recited.
The same figure that appeared this morning slowly appeared in front of the three, only what they were doing was completely different.
"Xia Xiang, what are you doing?" Ren Chenfeng and Hu Yanjing exchanged a glance, not quite understanding what she was trying to do.
"Of course, we should study hard and make progress every day." Xia Xiang ignored the two of them and began to observe the images of people using superpowers.
Seeing Xia Xiang muttering to herself and taking notes in a small notebook while reading, the two understood what was going on.
"Xia Xiang, are you learning their superpowers?"
"Of course, otherwise would I be learning to act?" Xia Xiang took notes without looking up, but at least gave him a polite reply.
“But these are their family’s own special abilities, isn’t it wrong to do this?” Hu Yanjing was a little embarrassed, and Ren Chenfeng nodded in agreement.
“You’re right,” Xia Xiang nodded, a rare occurrence. Then, “Mind Control Technique—Woo-la-ba-ha—Jump three times in place.”
Hu Yanjing's small eyes widened. He wondered if he had forgotten something. After jumping three times in shock, he adjusted his glasses.
"You, you...you still haven't told me where you learned my family's mind-controlling technique!"
"Why bother learning something you can learn after just one look?" Xia Xiang thought that these two people, though young, were as old-fashioned as their ancestors.
"Am I not allowed to learn it? I never said that once I learned this ability, it would belong to my family. I'm just using it. You're saying everyone can use the Lightning Bolt? Then whose family does it belong to?"
Both of them shook their heads in disagreement.
"Am I wrong?" Xia Xiang's face was dangerous, as if she would bury them here if they disagreed.
"No, not everyone knows how to use the Lightning Bolt Technique, at least we don't." The two spoke calmly, their expressions utterly frank.
"You guys are amazing!" Xia Xiang expressed her admiration for their matter-of-fact attitude, giving them a thumbs up and sincerely praising them.
Seeing that Xia Xiang already knew how to use lightning, and was now learning other superpowers, the two felt they couldn't fall too far behind, otherwise they would be beaten without any chance to fight back. So, despite their reluctance, they joined in.
