“Ding!”
“You have one unread email. Please check.”
Lu Xun pulled out his phone.
“Please don't be a membership renewal notification, please, anything but that!”
He muttered to himself while tapping on the email.
Seeing that it wasn't a membership renewal from some video app, the heart Lu Xun had been holding in his throat finally settled.
The sender of the email was still Lu Xun’s acquaintance.
666 Network Technology Co., Ltd.
The content of the email was roughly: We have received your message. We are deeply sorry for your poor experience. Regarding this, we have implemented a hotfix to correct the bug where NPCs were idling in groups and the plot where the Peerless Fencer was framed as a cultist, thereby fixing the villain route. We wish you a pleasant game.
“It's fixed?” Lu Xun exclaimed in surprise. “That was fast!”
This 666 Network Technology Co., Ltd. was quite something; their speed at fixing bugs was much faster than certain other companies.
And the most important thing was that they were very receptive to feedback!
Not bad. For this attitude alone, even if your game is hot garbage, I'll keep playing!
Lu Xun smiled. Since his mental state was quite good at the moment, he decided to strike while the iron was hot.
As for whether he might drop dead suddenly?
Heh, he only worried about that after logging off.
He logged into the game.

In the classroom, Grinya was focused intently on Teacher Evan’s lecture. Whether from her expression or her upright posture, it was clear she was studying quite seriously.
Evan, occasionally glancing her way, was very confused.
Since you can study this seriously, what was the point of getting a 0 on the theory test back then?
Evan didn't understand Grinya’s logic, but seeing her study so diligently still made him quite happy.
“Student Grinya.” So, having just finished explaining a point, Evan called out her name. “Can you explain to the class what mana vein resonance is? And when a caster's frequency conflicts with the environmental mana veins, what are the three typical mana backlash phenomena that occur?”
His smile was gentle, and his eyes were full of encouragement. “Don't be nervous. These are things I just covered. You only need to repeat it.”
Grinya stood up calmly, her smile filled with confidence. “It's simple.”
Everyone couldn't help but look toward her.
Buze also finally opened his eyes, sizing her up with a scrutinizing gaze.
This kind of expectant and admiring look from classmates was the kind of moment that made these youths feel their blood pumping, and Evan was happy to give this chance to show off to Grinya.
He smiled as he picked up his water bottle.
The confident and composed smile on Grinya’s face was clear to him.
It looked like she shouldn't have any problems.
But why did he always have a sense of unease in his heart?
Come to think of it, hadn't he seen this look on Grinya before?
His movement to drink water paused, and the smile on his face gradually froze.
Oh no...
Grinya: “It's simple. Mana vein resonance is when...”
Her voice stopped abruptly, her body freezing in place like a petrified statue.
'No way, why at a time like this?' Grinya’s inner voice cried out in disbelief.
In the next second, her limbs and everything else were no longer under her control.
Everyone watched as she suddenly went blank, then looked around like a neurotic:
“Is class in session?”
Everyone: “...”
Buze: “???”
Evan choked on his water.
“I knew it!” He gritted his teeth and wiped his mouth with his sleeve.
“Student Grinya, please explain to everyone what mana vein resonance is!” He said it word by word, with forceful emphasis and a loud voice, fearing Grinya wouldn't hear clearly.
He didn't even ask the second question.
Please, stop destroying my teaching career!
However, after silently listening to his question, Grinya stood there blankly for a moment, then suddenly started shouting:
“What the hell! There's actually class here too? Are you guys insane!”
“Day after day, is it not enough that I already have so many classes? What's even the point of this kind of curriculum? Isn't this purely just to mess with someone's mental state? Is there something wrong with the brain of the person who designed this course!”
She suddenly seemed to go mad, venting her emotions right there.
Everyone's eyes widened, completely stunned.
Kriss moved her seat away in fear.
Buze was in deep thought.
Evan had already begun to question his existence.
He was certain that this person was definitely messing with him on purpose!
Grinya glanced around again, then suddenly leaped out of her seat right in front of everyone.
“Whoever wants to attend this class can go ahead, but I'm done.”
Under the shocked and admiring gazes of her classmates, Grinya walked right out of the classroom in front of Teacher Evan.
Student Grinya doesn't even care about the school rules; she's so brave!
As expected of Student Grinya!
“Stop right there!” Evan finally couldn't take it anymore and called out to her with a sharp shout.
It was one thing for this person to embarrass him time and again, but this time was truly going too far!
As a student, she had absolutely no respect for him as a teacher.
Even Evan couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.
“I don't understand who gave you the courage to be so arrogant. This is a classroom. Do you think you can just come and go as you please?”
“You can't answer questions, and you don't know how to respect your teachers. Do you think performing well on Wuxin Island entitles you to special privileges?”
“You only happened to kill a few more magical beasts in the secret realm, which put your level ahead of others. Otherwise, where do you think your strength comes from!”
Evan's angry shout echoed through the classroom. The students stared at them, trembling, not daring to make a sound.
They knew Teacher Evan was truly angry.
Everyone looked at Grinya, wondering how she would handle it.
This was a direct confrontation with a teacher of Yiertaya Academy; even an average count's family might not dare to provoke a teacher here.
But Grinya, she dared!
Everyone's hearts pounded nervously as they watched Grinya turn around unhurriedly to face Teacher Evan.
A cold sneer appeared on her face, which was as cold as ice:
“Happened to?”
“A person's success is forged by their own hand; how can it be called mere chance?”
As soon as the words landed, the entire classroom instantly fell into a silence so profound that a falling needle could be heard.
Teacher Evan stood there in a daze, then fell into a state of total isolation, completely questioning his life.
