Drinking some wine, enjoying the breeze, listening to some pleasant music. (The night was still very fulfilling.)
The anticipated night arrived quietly. The moonlight shone on the stone bridge, as cold and bright as frost. But at some point, a layer of hazy gauze had covered it. A light flapping sound lingered in the air above the small town. The clean night immediately became a little turbid, and even the river was no longer clear …
…
It was rare for Mo Fan to give himself a vacation. He did not hunt demon creatures, nor did he cultivate, nor did he practice magic. He was just like a normal university student, spending his vacation in a beautiful town with the person he liked.
The more comfortable it was, the faster time would pass. Five days passed quickly. It seemed like there were still many secrets and interesting things in the town that he had yet to discover. However, he had no choice but to continue his exploration the next time he came.
When Mofan left Wuzhen with Xinxia, he happened to see the City Hunters at the entrance of Wuzhen. Mofan was quite familiar with their logo.
"Did something happen?" asked Xinxia when she saw the City Hunters rushing into the town.
"Maybe." Mofan did not want to be a busybody. Since the City Hunters were here, they would deal with it no matter what happened.
…
They took the train back to Hangzhou. Mofan sent Xinxia to school, but he was still reluctant to part with her.
Mofan initially wanted to send her to the plane, but his superiors had already urged him to report to the national team. He had no choice but to leave Xinxia with Tang Zhong, Lu Ping, Glorkian, and Digaeus.
"Glorkian, if anyone dares to bully her there, I won't forgive you!" Mo Fan reminded the golden-haired teacher once again.
"Don't you worry!" said Glorkian confidently.
Mofan kissed Xinxia's forehead and said with a smile, "Give me a call if you miss me."
"Mmm, you too," Xinxia nodded.
Sitting on the plane to the Imperial Capital, Mofan looked at the empty blue sky and felt a sense of loss.
Perhaps, ever since Xinxia had lived in his house, she had never been so far away from him. The geographical distance made Mofan unable to completely relax.
Or perhaps, he had always had a strong desire to possess her, and this small separation made him feel uncomfortable in his heart.
Actually, it was also good. He was going to leave the country for a long time, and she would have her own things to do. She wouldn't be like a sparrow without any freedom, being overly protected in a narrow cage by him …
…
…
When they arrived at the Imperial Capital, the air here was as bad as ever. The sky was covered with a grayish-brown color, and there was no blue sky or white clouds.
However, Mofan was an optimistic person. He was about to embark on his exciting journey of sowing seeds in the world. Mofan could not help but whistle on his way to the national team's residence when he thought about traveling to different countries, searching for mysterious lands, trampling on the superior dogs of foreign countries, and flirting with exotic girls.
When he arrived at the gathering point, Mofan immediately saw five elderly Magicians with dark expressions at the entrance of the stadium.
One of the advisors, a short and fat man with a big belly, glared at Mofan, who was carrying a slanted backpack, and said in an unfriendly tone, "So you're the substitute Mofan!"
"I'm Mofan, but why am I a substitute?" Mofan was startled. He looked at Dean Song He confusedly.
Dean Song He was aware of Mofan's situation, and tried to explain with a smile.
To his surprise, Advisor Feng Li with a tiger-striped forehead spoke up coldly, "You're just someone who came in through the back door. It's already impressive that you're a substitute."
"Mofan, you didn't participate in the final selection. Even if you have the votes and the nominations, you're still not an official member until the final selection," Dean Song He explained to Mofan.
"Alright, I'll be a substitute then." Mo Fan shrugged indifferently as he walked toward the rest of the team.
Mofan only took a few steps forward when he saw a few familiar faces. Mofan was quite surprised.
"Mofan, HAHAHA, I was wondering why you weren't on the list. Don't forget about our agreement!" The first guy to approach Qin Nan was Zhao Manyan. His blonde hair was perfectly combed!
"Not bad, you actually managed to get a spot," Mofan patted Zhao Manyan on the shoulder. He was quite surprised.
"What's wrong with that? He's just relying on his clan's wealth to bribe a lot of people to get a spot. He's no different than a substitute who came in through the back door," a sarcastic voice came from the crowd.
"There are so many people in a team, yet only five to seven of them are qualified to participate in the final. It's fine to give the rest of the spots to the rich. After all, we're competing for the national team. We deserve the best treatment," a woman with a beauty mark beside her lips said indifferently.
Zhao Manyan felt extremely awkward after hearing the words.
As a matter of fact, he was only able to become a member of the national team because of the Zhao Family Financial Group's support.
The five advisors were well aware that in terms of strength, Zhao Manyan was still a distance away from the representatives of the national team.
"He's so handsome, maybe the Councilman is interested in him, HAHAHA …" said a brawny man with a rough appearance.
The man was almost two meters tall. His muscles were almost bursting out of his clothes. He looked like a beast in human form. It was hard to tell what Element he was practicing.
"Brother, it seems like you're not welcomed here," Mofan glanced at the three arrogant people.
The ones who spoke rudely were a well-dressed man, a woman with a beauty mark, and a beastly man.
The others did not seem to care, as if it was just as the woman with a beauty mark had mentioned. Only five to seven people were qualified to participate in the final match. There were more than ten people in the team, so it was inevitable that some of them would rely on other means to get a spot.
Zhao Manyan had already mentioned that he would not rely on the school to secure a spot in the national team.
However, Mofan did not seem to mind, as long as he was selected.
They were not here to win glory for their country. Their goal was to spread the seeds of the world!
"I'm handsome and rich, it's normal for people to complain about me. Just get used to it." Zhao Manyan let out a self-mocking laugh. He did not care what the others thought when he saw Mofan's indifference.
The two joined the team with their arms around each other's shoulders. Mofan was surprised when he saw a man and a woman with stern expressions.
The man was not too surprised. He was Ai Tutu's brother, Ai Jiangtu, an expert with the Space Element. Mofan already knew that he was the chosen member of the team, and most likely the captain too.
The woman, on the other hand, was quite surprised, as Mofan had seen her before. She was the Commander he had met at the Burning Valley — Nan Jue.
