Everyone look here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bets are bets! Classmates, all the wagers from just now are already recorded!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Within three days! Please transfer your money to my account! No credit allowed!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At these words, the crowd erupted in wails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Mengqing… can you give us a few more days…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah… I got carried away, I don’t have that much money!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wahhh… I can’t even afford gear now, Sister Mengqing, can I pay in installments?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The students all wore gloomy faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the gambler’s frenzy faded, nothing remained but endless regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Mengqing, however, remained stern and unyielding, her face hardening:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No! No Fuzi  on the gambling table! If you’d won, would you have given me extra time to pay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Kong glanced at Han Mengqing and spoke:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough arguing. Han Mengqing, tally up the total. All the money is on me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m the one who started this betting. If we lost, I’ll take the loss.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the classmates stared at Ye Kong in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big Brother Kong…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wahhh! Big Brother Kong is so righteous!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big Brother! From now on, you’re my real brother! So badass!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching this, Lin Mo silently nodded in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to admit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy had some backbone. He was a real man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone like this, as vice-class monitor, was reliable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Mengqing didn’t care who paid, as long as the money arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rapidly tapped her calculator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a flurry of clicks, she announced a number:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Um… adding your own loss of one hundred and ten million, plus everyone else’s…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The total is… seven hundred and forty-five million.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cough cough cough cough…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this number,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Ye Kong had prepared himself, he nearly choked on his own saliva.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at the surrounding classmates:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What the hell? How much did you all bet? I only wagered a hundred million, and you all bet this much?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The classmates exchanged uneasy glances, some sheepishly scratching their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gambling was truly terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You didn’t feel it while you were high, but seeing the number now was downright deadly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Kong, seeing this, could only wear a look of helplessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though his family was wealthy, this sum was still enough to cripple him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d already made his promise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright… alright…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Kong’s face turned pale, his hand trembling as he pulled out his phone: “Send me the account. I’ll have someone transfer it right away…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching this scene,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, “This is truly it—killing and arson earn you a golden belt, but running the table is faster.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenchang walked over and signaled for silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, since the class monitor and vice-class monitor have been chosen, today’s events are over.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenchang’s gaze swept over the group, his tone turning serious:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Everyone saw today’s sparring.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Mo’s strength is unquestionable. Ye Kong’s performance was also commendable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The real test comes tomorrow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“At nine a.m. tomorrow, the freshman trial begins!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenchang raised his voice slightly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In past years, the Long Xu Class has never won the trial—it’s like a curse.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But this year, you are the generation of ‘Divine Descent,’ with the strongest class monitor and vice-class monitor.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I believe you have the ability to break this curse!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Disperse now. Those who need to level up, go level up. Those who need rest, rest. Get your state ready!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenchang’s words instantly ignited the crowd’s fighting spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Master Xu!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Break the curse! Crush the upperclassmen!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Kong looked at Lin Mo and chuckled softly: “With Lin Mo here, I can’t imagine how we could lose.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Mengqing also puffed out her chest proudly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course! Lin Mo is a monster who unlocked his Elemental Body at level 25! Upperclassmen? What are they, even?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenchang smiled, but still warned:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Still, don’t let your guard down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t forget, your opponents are the entire second-year class.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They outnumber you a hundredfold! And their levels range from 30 to 40—it will be a true battle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, disperse!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Xu Wenchang’s order, the crowd scattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Mengqing and Han Mengyao hurried over to Lin Mo. “Lin Mo, wanna go level up together?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo, however, waved them off and yawned:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m going back to sleep. Rest up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Han Mengqing nodded and didn’t press:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright then. Lin Mo, you’re already level 26, while we’re only level 24. You rest, we’ll catch up later.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’re off then! See you tomorrow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“See you tomorrow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo bid farewell to the group and walked alone out of the arena toward the villa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Earth Shield” also stirred to life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【“Earth Shield” rolled over: Yay! Time to sleep! I’m tired too, gonna lie flat!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo directly spoke in his mind:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sleep? What sleep?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m the one sleeping, not you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go level up! Do you want Earth Element Fragments or your Elemental Avatar or not?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Look at your big brother—he’s got his fragments. Look at your third brother—his are on the way. What about yours? Are you even ashamed to sleep?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fireball” chimed in with its fiery voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【“Fireball” snorted: Hmph, Second Brother is being dramatic! True Qiangzhe  never need rest!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【I am destined to become a Forbidden Spell! What others do is none of my concern—I will seize every chance to grow stronger!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【I will make all things in this world tremble beneath my flames! Sleep? Sorry, no time!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo listened to this and nodded approvingly, lecturing inwardly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little Earth, look! Look closely!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Learn from your big brother! This is awareness! This is the example!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Look at yourself—you get tired just doing a little work. Are you honoring the effort I’ve put into cultivating you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with Lin Mo’s PUA and his brother’s intense competition, “Earth Shield Art” immediately wilted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【“Earth Shield Art” weakly said: Alright… I’ll try harder too… I’ll become something that makes the earth tremble…】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s more like it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【“Fireball Art” glanced at “Lightning Strike Art” beside it and taunted: Third brother, what about you? We didn’t settle who won last night’s monster grinding—dare to race again?】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Faced with “Fireball Art”’s provocation, “Lightning Strike Art” simply replied four words: Gladly.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm… good, good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re all full of fight!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo walked down the road, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is this what it feels like to be a boss?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Go, go—push yourselves to the limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as you don’t train to death, train until you drop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master me can only reluctantly go back and get a good night’s sleep for you all.\u003C\u002Fp>",1139,"2026-06-21T04:41:49.398Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","fdf18e646aa00ea3cac3df5b9fdebc45e5d4b2a8984535a7ce37e9e93805da20","just-became-a-mage-and-my-skills-got-self-aware--chapter-137","just-became-a-mage-and-my-skills-got-self-aware--chapter-135",374,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fjust-became-a-mage-and-my-skills-got-self-aware--cover.jpg"]
