The Golden Throne

Seeing that Liu Feng was talking about them, all the students started glancing at him. However, with his last sentence, everyone looked at Liu Feng, who spoke.

The students were a healthy mix of new students, as well as old ones. The moment that Liu Feng came into the limelight, murmurs started coming about. Liu Feng was a little bit of a celebrity in the academy after all. In the little time that he had even been in the magic academy, he took care of the entire Glade association, and he got Li Zhang expelled. A lot of people recognized him almost instantly.

All the students who did recognize him started talking about it, and Steve, who just saw Liu Feng, had an ugly face. He clenched his teeth so hard that everyone around him looked at him with concern. Liu Feng also heard the immediate change in the topic of conversation. He sighed and glanced around at all the students. He stopped briefly at Steve\'s face, and smiled a little. This smile was a bit devilish, and Steve felt chills all throughout his body. All the students were suddenly talking about Liu Feng, and the boy that Liu Feng fought with the same morning was confused. He asked someone near him. "Hey! Who is that boy? Why is everyone talking about him?"

"You don\'t know who he is? And you call yourself a Glade citizen? That is Liu Feng. He is the person who trashed the Glade club headquarters and got the president suspended for three months. If you are a person from Glade, it is an unspoken rule to avoid him. At least that\'s what we thought. He disappeared in the magical forest a month ago, and everyone thought that he was dead. Did you not remember the huge party that the Glade Club hosted?\'\'

"I thought that it was to welcome the new students like me. It was right?", the boy said naivelty.

"You idiot. Who cares about new students like you? They were celebrating his death. He returned, and it is going to shake the entire school.", the other boy laughed at him.

The boy seemed to have an existential crisis. He looked down with dead eyes. Liu Feng shook his head, and he looked at the teacher. Malcolm nodded at Liu Feng and said, "Ok then. Let us start with the class."

Liu Feng went back to his place, next to Arad and Amelia. But, all around him, he could still hear people talking about him. Amelia nudged at him, but Liu Feng just waved his hand to tell her not to worry. He had more important things to focus on. 

While the students were intent on discussing Liu Feng\'s miraculous revival, Liu Feng was more focused on the class. Liu Feng knew, after his fight with the demon captain, that he had to improve his proficiency with the spells that this era of humans had developed because they could prove to be game changing in places filled with corrupted energy. He told Lucas the same, and he knew that this was one class that he could not afford to slack off at.

Liu Feng looked at the spells that he was casting with a different light. The demonstrations that Malcolm showed were much smoother than the ones he cast, and Liu Feng knew that only practise could close that gap, and only then would these spells truly help him.

The class went on pretty unassumingly, and Liu Feng just practised all his spells a little. He was truly interested in understanding how normal humans grew powerful and cast bigger spells, but his wishes were not fulfilled in this class, and probably wouldn\'t in this year. Liu Feng knew that he had to find other avenues to learn bigger and better spells.

"I have to speak with my father, and quickly learn all the bigger spells, so that I can use them in the future. God! I have so much to do, yet so little time.", Liu Feng shook his head.

The bell soon rang, and the crowd dispersed. Amelia was about to move, but she looked at Liu Feng, who was still very much immobile. He had a faint smile on his face as he was still practising the spells on a dummy in front of him. All the students and Malcolm left, but Liu Feng, Arad, and Amelia remained. He looked at Steve, who was standing opposite to Liu Feng. Beside Steve were a few other students.

"So you still haven\'t let go of your stupid cowardly nature? So, I hear that you behaved yourself in the city? Good dog. Now I have some work, so please move aside."

Steve clenched his knuckles and said, "You may be misunderstanding me. I only left that day without much of a fight because that was inside Aegon. Now, we are in a neutral space. I can do whatever I want to do with you, and your stupid Baron father won\'t do anything."

Liu Feng laughed. "Fine. Come at me yourself. Why hide behind others. This was the case that day as well. You should know that you are not an inborn leader right? I thought that you would be smart enough to stay away from me after that day, but it seems that I was wrong. Well, I guess that hot-headedness truly runs in your family blood."

Steve was enraged, and he leapt towards Liu Feng. Hours of fighting kicked in, and Liu Feng took the extended arm of Steve and twisted it, while coming to the side. Steve fell on the ground. Liu Feng held the hand up, and put his knee on Steve\'s back. He started pulling on Steve\'s arm. 

"Aaaaagh. I yield. I yield. Leave my hand please. It hurts.", Steve started crying. Liu Feng left Steve\'s hand, and said, 

"Mess with me again, and I won\'t listen to your cries the next time around."

Liu Feng left the ground, and Amelia and Arad followed behind him. They went to the cafeteria and took a seat.

"Arad, could you give me some privacy? I wish to talk to Amelia alone."
