Teaching magic theory was different from teaching about magic duels, as magic theory was closely related to the latest magic technologies.

For example, how did vehicles powered by the Lightning Element maintain their stability?

How could one manipulate the structure of the soil and the terrain to make the walls of a city st.u.r.dier?

What were the principles that the Magic Tools and the special Cultivation Ponds were based on?

There was no way Mo Fan would know the answers to those kind of questions!

He might have the Lightning Element and the Earth Element, and he also owned a Magic Tool, but he was completely clueless about how they worked!

Mages not only learned how to use magic and maximize the potential of their spells, but they had to improve magic technology too, as it directly affected the advancement of civilization.

Mo Fan was being asked to teach this subject, not to mention it was an advanced cla.s.s!

“Ahem… students, my name is Mo Yifan, I’m your lecturer for today.” Mo Fan tried his best to remain calm and introduced himself.

One of the students who was not far from the podium almost burst out screaming in disbelief.

She was none other than the overbearing senior who had slapped the woman with a broom in the face. She had the urge to hide under her desk when she recalled her behavior yesterday. She was hoping that the lecturer would not notice her.

Mo Fan had sharp eyes. He immediately noticed a familiar face among the students.

He had no idea where to start, so he decided to pick on her instead.

“You there… yes, the third lady on the fourth row. Nice to see you again. Please think of an interesting question for me to start our cla.s.s today!” Mo Fan pointed at the woman with puffy hair.

The student rose to her feet, staggering as if she was having her period.

The Aorus Sacred Inst.i.tute had a great reputation. Its lecturers were well respected too. The students had to behave themselves in front of the lecturers.

“Lecturer Mo, I don’t know which topic you are going to teach today…” the student, Bulma said softly.

“It’s fine, just ask whatever question you have,” Mo Fan slowly calmed his nerves after he found an entry point. As for the topic he was going to teach today… he did not have any idea either!

‘Ugh… then may I ask about the magic towers that are mainly built to defend cities. These towers replace the role of sentry Mages of firing spells and tracking demon creatures. How do they work?” Bulma offered with a lack of confidence.

Mo Fan had no idea how to answer Bulma’s question.

He did hear about these magic towers, but they were not generalized across the world. Not only did they cost a lot, they were unable to distinguish demon creatures very well. It was still being tested across the world, so Mo Fan had no clue how they worked!

“Isn’t your question too easy? You should just ask the lecturer of your construction cla.s.ses instead of wasting my precious time!” Mo Fan adjusted his gla.s.ses proudly.

“Erm… I’m sorry, the question is indeed too simple for you,” Bulma’s head began to spin. She had regretted calling the lecturer a savage yesterday.

“Give me a better question,” Mo Fan prodded her.

“Then, what are the devices and Fire Seeds that are required and the procedures to purify the Elemental Diamonds?” Bulma asked.

“What’s the point of wasting your time on learning about these materials that are only useful for Forbidden Mages? Do you think you can become a Forbidden Mage?” Mo Fan replied coldly.

Luckily, he had heard about the Elemental Diamonds from Lingling and the American healer when he went to Tianshan Mountain. Mo Fan just briefly touched on it like he knew the answer and pretended like he was too lazy to answer the question.

Bulma was stunned.

Most people did not even know what the Elemental Diamonds were, let alone Forbidden Mages that did not even exist in most textbooks.

“Sir!” A handsome student suddenly rose to his feet. He seemed to notice Mo Fan was purposely picking on Bulma, so he decided to lend her a hand.

“Sir, Bulma must be a little nervous, so she couldn’t come up with a nice question. I did encounter a tricky problem when I was on an adventure. I was hoping to hear your thoughts on it,” the student with red hair called out.

“You…” Mo Fan was just about to ask the student to sit down, yet the student insisted on protecting Bulma, even if it meant offending the lecturer.

The student interrupted before Mo Fan could finish, “Our group went to Peru and encountered a strange species. They kept showing up like waves of the water in the ocean. Even the biggest hordes of demon creatures in the world can’t just keep coming like there’s no limit to their numbers. Most importantly, you can’t even sense their presence until they show up. It has been bothering us since, so I was hoping to get some answers from you.”

“Simpkins, the lecturer is teaching magic theory, but you are asking a question about demon creatures. Please rethink your question again!” the a.s.sistant reminded him.

The a.s.sistant was the cla.s.s’ head aide. His job was to supervise the students instead of teaching them. Normally, the position was open for graduates who preferred to stay at the school.

The a.s.sistant was not a lecturer, but his status was still higher than the students.

“It’s fine. His question might not be my field of expertise, but as a lecturer, it’s my job to answer my students’ questions. I can answer his question too,” Mo Fan subconsciously fondled his beard before he realized he did not even have one.

The student’s question was Mo Fan’s last hope!

“The two of you should remain standing while I answer the question.” Mo Fan did not go easy on the students, acting like he was not someone they wanted to mess with. He said, “The question implies you like going on adventures and fighting demon creatures. I’ve never been to Peru, but I can easily guess what you’ve encountered without having to hear the details about it.

“The creatures you mentioned are called the Symbolic Creatures, a kind of Chaos Magic that the natives used. It allows certain creatures to duplicate continuously…”

The student had obviously encountered the Nazca Monsters!

Examples included the Nazca Monster Birds and the Nazca Monster Apes.

Mo Fan was much more familiar with the Nazca Monsters than some theoretical experts. After all, the Nazca Monsters once pursued the national team endlessly after the team was Cursed by them!
