Chapter 840: Chapter 840 Terrifying Music Magic

Because there was no ti to visit the trial tower again, Qin Sisi had dinner in the cafeteria and then returned to her dormitory at Tianyue Mountain to get so rest early.

The Ice Attribute Magic class was followed by Teacher Yirou’s Music Magic class. Thinking about Teacher Yirou’s charming beauty and deanor, Qin Sisi was curious about how she would conduct the class.

The next day, when all the students had arrived at Tianyin Mountain, Teacher Yirou indeed gave them a big... shock.

Qin Sisi already knew that among the ten magic attributes, Music Magic was not highly regarded because it required high talent but had weak offensive power, only displaying significant strength at higher levels of practice.

Most people would choose magic attributes with stronger offensive power and quicker returns, making Music Magic seem rather worthless in everyone’s eyes.

Among the nine freshn, only Qin Sisi, Wen Xuan, Li Li, and Qing Pu had activated the Music Magic Attribute.

Teacher Yirou also had to teach according to the different situations of the students. For the five who had not activated their Music Attribute, Teacher Yirou first brought out a variety of musical instrunts for them to choose from.

To Qin Sisi’s surprise, all five of them unanimously chose drum instrunts—so picked large drums, others picked small drums, and a few opted for hand drums.

Qin Sisi moved closer to Wen Xuan and asked curiously, "Why did they all choose drums?"

Wen Xuan explained helplessly, "They probably don’t understand musical tunes at all and are afraid of choosing other instrunts that might not even produce a sound. At least drums will definitely make noise."

Qin Sisi then understood, but drum instrunts, while seemingly simple, are also quite challenging to master well.

After selecting their instrunts, Teacher Yirou enclosed each of the five in a transparent do, which were open at the top without lids.

Teacher Yirou had them line up to make it easier for her to observe their practice.

After they were ready, Teacher Yirou threw a snake into each transparent do.

Qin Sisi had anticipated this and silently sweated for them.

The next second, as expected, a series of screams erupted.

Teacher Yirou frowned, rubbing her ears irritably and chided, "What are you screaming for? Is it an honor to not have fully activated your variation attributes even as students of Heaven Academy?"

After being scolded by Teacher Yirou, the five of them managed to shut their mouths, but their expressions were still terrified. The soft, slippery snake had already crawled onto them, raising its head and flicking its red tongue.

Teacher Yirou pulled over a large stone slab, wrote down a drumbeat rhythm on it, and said, "This is what you’ll be practicing today. I’ll demonstrate it first."

With that, Teacher Yirou picked up a hand drum and tapped out the rhythm on the stone slab with her fingers.

Hearing the rhythmic drumbeat, the five snakes stood up, tails on the ground, and swayed their bodies to the rhythm, as if they were dancing.

After finishing, Teacher Yirou taught them so precautions and then said, "As you just saw, as long as you drum to this rhythm, the snakes will start dancing. After they tire and fall asleep, you can co out."

The five people looked at each other, their faces all turning sour.

However, seeing that the snakes were staring at them with unfriendly eyes, they hastily picked up the drums in their hands and began to play. But due to a lack of understanding of music rhythms combined with their nervousness, their beats were almost all incorrect.

The snakes initially twisted their bodies a few tis but, realizing sothing was wrong, stopped and just stared motionlessly at the people around them.

Teacher Yirou cleared her throat and reminded them, "Pay attention, the rhythm needs to be precise. If it’s not, they won’t dance. If they don’t dance, they won’t sleep, and if they don’t sleep, you won’t be able to leave."

Hearing Teacher Yirou’s words, the five of them felt a chill in their hearts and quickly recalled the rhythm of Teacher Yirou’s drumming, earnestly hitting the drumbeats they saw on the large stone slab.

They had never planned to specialize in Music Magic after this and had thought simply scraping by would be enough to graduate. Little did they expect the learning process of Music Magic to be so terrifying.

After organizing the five students who hadn’t activated their Music Attribute, Teacher Yirou took Qin Sisi and the others a little farther away and also had them line up in a row inside a transparent cover that had no lid.

Teacher Yirou pulled over a large stone slab, wrote down so music scores on it, and said sweetly, "This piece is called ’Floral Butterfly Dance.’ It has a lively rhythm and a beautiful lody. Today you will learn this piece, and your task is to attract butterflies."

Attract butterflies?

The four of them looked at Teacher Yirou in surprise. Was the first lesson really this challenging?

Teacher Yirou smiled slightly and said, "Since you’ve already activated your Music Attribute, it ans you have so grasp of musical rhythms. As long as you put your heart into it, attracting butterflies isn’t that difficult. It doesn’t matter how many, even one is enough."

After saying this, she gracefully walked to a more distant spot and leisurely sat down on a comfortable rattan chair, and Mr. Chen Song tily ca over to hand her a glass of juice.

The four of them looked at each other, realizing that, like those five classmates, they had no choice but to take out their instrunts and begin practicing ’Floral Butterfly Dance.’

Qin Sisi rembered Wen Xuan’s Jade Flute had been left in the Wind Valley, and she specially glanced at him, only to see him taking out a very ordinary wooden flute.

This wooden flute was no match for the white Jade Flute, and Qin Sisi couldn’t help but feel regret for Wen Xuan, yet she temporarily couldn’t think of any way to help him.

Li Li’s instrunt was a lusheng, colored black and red, with silver tal securing several lusheng pipes together, each pipe lustrous and bright, clearly very exquisite.

Qing Pu’s instrunt was unexpectedly a small set of chis, arranged in two layers, with five chis hanging on the bottom and four on top, representing different musical notes. The fine wooden hamr struck them, producing a very beautiful sound.

Qin Sisi also took out her Half Moon zither, her fingers gently caressing the smooth and delicate edges, her face naturally showing a look of cherishing.

She sat cross-legged, positioned herself properly, and her fingers moved across the strings, beginning to learn ’Floral Butterfly Dance’ from the music scores written on the stone slab by Teacher Yirou.

This piece wasn’t particularly difficult, and after practicing it more than a dozen tis, Qin Sisi was able to play it quite skillfully.

However, based on her experience playing music for the Ice-scaled Purple Crystal Python, she knew that learning a piece wasn’t difficult, but playing it well wasn’t simple.

Besides proficiency, the quality of the instrunt, one’s mood, and whether one’s focus was in place all had significant impacts on the performance of the piece.

Here, another very important factor was added, that was the power of magic.
