Who says I can't become a Grand Master?

Chapter 133 [Half-Witch] Professor, is he a man or a woman?

Chapter 134 [Half-Witch] Professor, is he a man or a woman?

The waitress stood behind the counter, gazing absently at the two figures by the window.

She had been worried for a long time, fearing that the seemingly well-matched young couple would develop a rift because of the suddenly appearing "cousin".

Now it seems the storm has finally passed and the sun is shining.

Although she didn't know exactly what had happened, the waitress was relieved that the story was back on track.

Gu Xintong gently smoothed the strands of hair that had fallen to her temples and deliberately turned her face to the other side of the window.

Because there are always clueless guys who will sneak glances at her, bypassing their female companions.

This made her feel both shy and angry.

Why are there so many philandering men in the world?

She hated all those glances that were secretly directed at her.

However, Zhang Qingzhe, who was sitting opposite her, was not looking at her at all.

He stared blankly out the window, clearly still pondering the card.

Zhang Qingzhe was pondering a serious problem: the price of [Battery Cards] would only increase in the future, and upgrading the level of [Magic Circuit] would require consuming a large number of [Battery Cards].

He roughly calculated in his mind what level of income he would need to reach in order to upgrade [Magic Circuit] to the level of Xia Qiwei.

Although the exact figures haven't been calculated yet, they're already enough to make him frown.

I remember how I had so arrogantly declared that I wanted to strive for the "official position" —

Now, upon closer examination, the wealth required to become a [Grand Master Cardholder] would probably make even Gu Xintong frown.

Gu Xintong wasn't thinking about money.

But she was already frowning.

Why isn't this guy looking at me?

How annoying.

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Xintong suddenly stood up and sat down in the seat next to Zhang Qingzhe.

Zhang Qingzhe then came to his senses and looked at Gu Xintong, who had suddenly sat down next to him.

Why did you sit here?

"Can't I sit here?"

Gu Xintong retorted sharply, "When Lin Wan was sitting here, I didn't see you kick her out."

Zhang Qingzhe took a sip of his milk tea and said slowly, "She's my cousin."

Gu Xintong pouted: "If you say so, then so be it. Anyway, I have no way of verifying it."

Zhang Qingzhe glanced at her and felt that the girl had been acting a bit strange lately.

She used to be very cheerful, so why has she become so petty about her "cousin"?

I don't understand at all.

The two fell into a brief silence.

Although the two were sitting very close, they each turned their faces to one side and silently sipped their milk tea.

The waitress watched this scene with concern from a distance.

She was afraid that although the couple hadn't argued, their feelings for each other might have faded silently.

Although she had never been in a relationship, the waitress was well aware of the dangers of this situation, thanks to her extensive experience watching romance dramas.

Arguing isn't actually scary.

Young couples often deepen their relationship through playful arguments.

What I fear most is a cold war.

The Cold War will slowly erode the passion, eventually turning the two people into strangers.

The waitress's heart clenched at the thought of that possibility.

However, after a while, Gu Xintong spoke again.

"Feed".

Zhang Qingzhe was stunned for a moment, thinking it was his sister calling him.

He then realized what was happening and looked at Gu Xintong with a puzzled expression.

What's wrong with girls these days? Why do they all like to call people "feed"?

"What is it?"

When did you meet our teacher?

"Your teacher? Which one?" Zhang Qingzhe didn't react for a moment.

"Professor Yu Huaizhen."

Gu Xintong gestured with her hands to indicate the name, "A very beautiful female teacher, who looks like this."

She drew a beautiful gourd-shaped curve in mid-air.

Zhang Qingzhe paused for a moment, then subconsciously mimicked the shape with his hand.

Unexpectedly, a faint blush instantly appeared on Gu Xintong's cheeks.

She lowered her head and muttered something under her breath.

"Dirty."

"What?" Zhang Qingzhe asked, somewhat helplessly.

He's really bad at playing riddles with girls.

"She said she'd seen you make cards before, and you made a LV4 [Fireball] card?"

"Oh, it's her." Zhang Qingzhe finally remembered.

She's the female teacher who stormed into the School of Energy's office and had a fight with Xia Qiwei.

Zhang Qingzhe gave a brief explanation.

After hearing his explanation, Gu Xintong seemed relieved. "Is there something wrong?" Zhang Qingzhe asked curiously.

"Professor Yu asked me to do some ideological work on you." Gu Xintong gently stirred the milk tea in her cup. "She hopes you can switch to the [Structuralist School]."

"Um?"

Zhang Qingzhe paused for a moment, then slowly shook his head. "I think things are fine as they are now. Why would I want to switch schools?"

"I also feel that the [Energistic School] is not quite suitable for you."

Gu Xintong looked up at him. "You're not good at the [Energy Shaping School] cards to begin with, and besides—your great witch professor often takes you out in her Porsche."

"What kind of reason is that?" Zhang Qingzhe said helplessly. "We went out for an internship, not to play around."

"Anyway, I don't like her."

Zhang Qingzhe was even more helpless. "That's my professor. What does it matter whether you like him or not?"

He changed the subject: "Speaking of which, why does Professor Yu seem a bit strange to you?"

"What's strange about it?"

"She seems to be both an ordinary person and possesses the aura of a witch."

Zhang Qingzhe frowned, trying hard to recall his impression of the meeting, "There was an indescribable sense of contradiction."

Gu Xintong opened her eyes wide in surprise and clapped her hands lightly.

"Your intuition is really accurate."

"What do you mean?"

"Because she's a half-witch," Gu Xintong explained.

"【Half-Witch】——" Zhang Qingzhe repeated in a low voice.

When he first wanted to improve his Magic Circuit, he heard about the concept of "half-witch" from Wang Dong.

Later, I gradually learned some related information from Xia Qiwei.

But this was the first time he had ever encountered a real "half-witch" in reality.

So this is what a "half-witch" feels like.

No wonder when I met Yu Huaizhen, I felt that she had both the worldly sophistication of a human and the straightforwardness and purity unique to a witch.

"Was she an ordinary human before?" Zhang Qingzhe asked.

"yes."

"After transforming into a [half-witch], did her [magic circuits] improve?"

"It should be a big improvement."

Gu Xintong took a sip of her milk tea. "Actually, the transformation process of a 'half-witch' is like opening a blind box. How far you end up depends entirely on luck."

"What if I'm unlucky?"

"The [Magic Circuit] might not improve much, and it might even become tainted with the unique flaws of a witch."

Zhang Qingzhe nodded: "What if we're lucky?"

"The [Magic Circuit] is basically at the level of a [Witch], and it also retains many of the advantages of humanity."

.

"In that case, Professor Yu is quite lucky."

"That's right."

Gu Xintong's lips curled up slightly. "Didn't you notice that she's not only beautiful, but also has a great temperament? That's..."

The performance of the "Magic Circuit" has been significantly improved.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing. Before she became a 'half-witch,' was she a man or a woman?" Zhang Qingzhe suddenly thought of something very chilling.
