When tired, he would close his eyes and sleep for a moment.
Elysia naturally noticed Lucas's state, so she angrily made this disobedient student answer questions.
However, the man answered fluently.
So Elysia no longer paid him any mind.
Himeko Murata had done something similar just now.
If it were before, when Lucas's grades were not good, he would certainly not be so presumptuous, but now his grades are so good that he can score as many points as he wants.
Naturally, he didn't want to waste time on these things.
It was better to relax and practice Jadeite Divine Skill.
As well as considering how to act tonight.
As for skipping class, Lucas certainly wouldn't dare.
If he skipped class without reason, it would cause the Yandere Valkyries to directly turn dark during the day.
Even if he wanted to skip class, he would have to ask Himeko Murata for leave in advance.
Moreover, he couldn't skip too many classes.
Otherwise, the Yandere Valkyries would also turn dark during the day.
Don't ask how Lucas knew.
Too much talk leads to tears.
Class after class passed.
In the last class, the moment the bell rang for dismissal, the geography teacher Pardofelis said "class dismissed" and instantly rushed out of the classroom, running incredibly fast.
Those who didn't know might even think this guy was a student in a hurry to go to the restroom...
The man practicing Jadeite Divine Skill stopped.
After ninety-nine reincarnations, although Lucas couldn't bring the true qi from the previous reincarnation into the next, the experience remained.
Now, his speed in practicing Jadeite Divine Skill was much faster than when he first cultivated it.
In just one morning, he had cultivated the first wisp of true qi, or rather, internal energy.
Refining Honkai Energy and storing it in the dantian, then releasing it when needed.
This is the essence of Shenzhou martial arts.
Storing Honkai Energy within oneself and then using it to harm enemies.
Due to the instability of Honkai Energy, it is easy to harm oneself and also easy to suffer from qi deviation, turning people into Undead or madmen.
This leads to practitioners of Shenzhou martial arts not having long lives; the more powerful the martial art, the shorter the life.
However, compared to Valkyries, who directly implant artificial Stigmata and suffer from Honkai Energy erosion, martial artists practicing Shenzhou martial arts can be considered long-lived.
The average lifespan of Valkyries is only around twenty to thirty years old.
Martial artists, no matter what, can live to forty or fifty, and some even to a hundred.
What's more, Shenzhou martial arts actually have a martial art that can avoid the lifespan reduction or qi deviation caused by cultivating Honkai Energy.
That is Hua's ultimate move—Taixu Sword Qi.
The Taixu Sword Qi of the Vermilion Bird Immortal does not cultivate Honkai Energy; it merely uses the body as a conduit for Honkai Energy.
Once perfected, it will continuously draw Honkai Energy from the air, avoiding both lifespan reduction and qi deviation, while also being more powerful.
Lucas was very envious.
However, Taixu Sword Qi is very demanding on talent; he went to Hua's place to try more than ten times but never learned it.
He simply settled for the next best thing, learning Jadeite Divine Skill to serve as a facade.
The morning theory classes on the first day ended.
In the afternoon, Himeko Murata would train everyone's physical fitness.
Starting from two o'clock and ending at six o'clock, this was a four-hour training course.
Himeko Murata, as the instructor, would thoroughly drill everyone, especially the transfer student Lucas.
Push-ups, sit-ups, squats, and long-distance running—none of these would be missed.
To be honest, there wasn't much worth paying attention to at St. Freya Academy during the day.
Time flew by quickly, and soon it was night.
Before approaching midnight, Lucas took out the late-night snack that Raiden Mei had prepared earlier that morning from the refrigerator, warmed it up briefly, and placed it at the door, waiting for a certain Paramecium who seemed like a starving ghost reincarnated.
There was no need to worry about the late-night snack at the door being seen by a Valkyrie and considered unusual.
After all, after eleven o'clock at night, no one would be moving around in the Valkyrie Dormitory.
Even if they weren't asleep yet, everyone would stay in their own rooms and absolutely not go out, as if it were an unwritten rule.
Until after midnight, the Valkyries would all leave their rooms, creating a terrifying scene like a parade of a hundred ghosts.
From twelve to one o'clock, and from five to six o'clock, one could see the parade of a hundred ghosts.
Although these were not literal ghosts, they were equally terrifying.
Lucas, in his pajamas, lay on the bed, his eyes wide open, watching the clock on the wall, quietly waiting for midnight to arrive, the second hand chasing the hour and minute hands.
Soon, midnight arrived.
Just as the hour, minute, and second hands aligned, boom! Boom! Boom!
Deafening drum sounds rang out.
The large drum in the Central Church of St. Freya Academy emitted deep, resonant sounds.
Lucas, without surprise, fainted again, as if stunned by the sound waves.
A moment later, he woke up again.
By this time, the drumming had stopped, and Lucas's tired body was completely refreshed.
His body, which had been so exhausted by Himeko Murata's training in the afternoon that he didn't want to move, instantly regained its vitality.
Morning Bell, twilight drum.
These are the universal cheats of St. Freya Academy (Reverse World Version).
If not for the Morning Bell and twilight drum to restore energy, Lucas and the Valkyries would not be able to operate continuously day and night.
Since adapting to life at St. Freya Academy (Reverse World Version), he slept very little.
At most, he would nap during class, or after six in the evening, after dinner, he would return to the dormitory and sleep for a few hours.
Although theoretically Lucas didn't need to sleep, he still felt it was better to sleep for a while.
Anyway, the training course was over.
Lucas didn't have much energy to do other things at that time, so it was perfect for resting.
Even if he didn't sleep, he could play games or something.
"There's still some time before Kiana comes to knock on the door, so let's keep waiting."
Lucas closed his eyes again.
You see, Kiana lived in the Faculty Dormitory, and it took about half an hour to walk from there to the Valkyrie Dormitory.
Since he had nothing to do, Lucas simply closed his eyes to rest.
He had no intention of practicing Jadeite Divine Skill.
The main reason was a limiting factor.
At night, the Honkai Energy concentration in St. Freya Academy was much higher than during the day.
His true qi was too weak, and without a martial arts master protecting him, he dared not act recklessly.
If he accidentally suffered from qi deviation, he would die.
As time passed little by little, the originally silent Valkyrie Dormitory seemed to come alive with the sound of doors opening and footsteps.
The Night Valkyries set out one by one.
The parade of a hundred ghosts had begun.
Compared to the wave from five to six in the morning, this wave from midnight to one o'clock was even more dangerous.
After all, during this period, the Night Valkyries would disperse and head to various locations within St. Freya Academy.
No matter where one was, it was possible to encounter a large group of Valkyries passing by.
Of course, just like the wave from five to six o'clock, the current situation was also polarized between danger and safety.
As long as Lucas, after midnight, got a head start before all the Night Valkyries changed and left their rooms, he could go anywhere unimpeded.
However, there was no need for that.
Even if he didn't take advantage of this time difference, he wouldn't face too much obstruction at St. Freya Academy anyway.
Half an hour passed in a flash.
As faint footsteps approached from outside the door, Lucas opened his eyes.
"She's here."
Lucas rolled out of bed.
He tiptoed to the door and took out a small mirror from his pocket.
This small mirror was, of course, not the one from earlier that morning.
That one had already been destroyed by a Night Valkyrie.
The one Lucas had now he bought at the convenience store in St. Freya Academy at noon today.
Besides a few small mirrors, he also bought a tranquilizer gun and five bottles of pepper spray.
Currently, Lucas was a C-Rank Destiny Knight, and he received a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan as a stipend.
This 10,000 yuan had to last for a whole month.
It seemed like a lot, but in reality, if he bought a few things, it would quickly be gone.
For example, the tranquilizer gun cost 2,500, and the five bottles of pepper spray totaled 500, so he had to be very frugal with the remaining money.
