"Damn it, I've already told you so many things. Would it kill you to tell me what happened at the Ancient Capital? Many people across the world are still trying to uncover the truth. Who was the one that forced the undead to retreat? Was Salan really one of the authorities under house arrest? How did she escape? How did the Black Vatican allow the undead to show up in the daytime? Was the Fire Demon God a human or a Summoned Beast? Did someone jump into the Dark Abyss? Are they still alive … I heard Zhang Xiaohou let it slip once. He told me that you made a great contribution during the Calamity of the Ancient Capital, and that the person protecting you must have put you on the national team because of it … Don't leave, is there anyone like you as a brother? I'll answer your questions, but when I ask you, you won't even say a thing, "cursed Zhao Manyan.
It was not that Mo Fan did not trust Zhao Manyan, but he never treated him as a trustworthy person!
If he told him the truth about the Calamity of the Ancient Capital, the whole world would know the truth the next day.
Zhao Manyan grumbled when he saw Mo Fan leaving.
The door was slammed shut once again. Zhao Manyan sat on a chair and stared out the window. He could see the murky ocean through the buildings in the East Maritime Fortress from his position.
"Jiang Shaoxu's identity is quite secretive. Nan Jue is from the military, so it's going to be difficult to get her hands on him. Forget about Mu Tingying, she looks quite ordinary. That leaves Nan Rongni, but isn't she already with a man? The Nanrong Clan … "Zhao Manyan was mumbling to himself, but he suddenly paused in the middle of the sentence. His expression stiffened.
"The Nanrong Clan, aren't they the most familiar with the sea creatures?
"But why couldn't Nan Rongni tell that the White Sobbing Demon's cry was fake?"
Zhao Manyan shook his head. He felt like he was overthinking it.
…
…
A cool breeze blew in from the window. Inside the room, Mu Tingying was wearing a simple spaghetti strap top. Her tightly shut eyes suddenly opened, just in time to welcome the light of the rising sun from the east, making her pupils even more colorful.
"Advanced Level … I've achieved the Advanced Level of the Ice Element!"
She opened her mouth and laughed. Her laughter was so carefree that she didn't need to pay attention to the red tape that her family had taught her. She even hoped that everyone could hear her laughter.
With just one Galaxy Meridian, she had successfully broken through to the Advanced Level of the Ice Element.
Any innate talent would pale in comparison to the difference between their levels. Mu Tingying could easily crush Mu Ningxue, while Mu Ningxue would be stuck in the Intermediate Level for a long time without a Galaxy Vein. The longer she stayed in the Intermediate Level, the further she would be able to surpass Mu Ningxue.
The Heavens had blessed her once again. From today onward, she would once again be the favorite of the Mu Clan. Her cousins who had been gossiping about her would be given a huge slap in the face. The elders and cousins who were always around Mu Ningxue would place their attention on her, too, as she was the true representative of the Mu Clan. She would shine brilliantly in the World College Tournament and be known by the world, bringing glory to the Mu Clan!
"I still won in the end!" Mu Tingying opened her palm, allowing the ice crystals and sand to slide down from it.
After reaching the Advanced Level, it seemed like Mages were no longer restricted to the Star Patterns and Star Orbits. They were able to manipulate the Star Patterns with their will, but it still required more practice.
As a matter of fact, Mu Ningxue already had the ability, but she was not an Advanced Mage. She might have had an absolute advantage in the past, but it was no longer a big deal now!
"I really want to go back and see how the others are treating her. Unfortunately, we still have to move forward …" Mu Tingying rose to her feet and took a deep breath under the morning sunlight. She suddenly felt that everything was perfect. Her future was as bright as the rising sun.
…
The tide rose a few more times in the East Maritime Fortress, but none of them were as strong as the first tide. As more people became Advanced Magicians, the strength of the whole team improved significantly. It was no longer too difficult for them to defeat a team of Four-Star Magicians.
As their ranks increased, it was almost time for them to leave Japan. Most people were confident that they were going to win the tournament. They firmly believed that they would not be the ones to withdraw from the tournament.
"Mofan, gather up, the advisors are here!" Zhao Manyan woke up Mofan, who was still snoring loudly.
Mofan's eyes were still half-closed. He went to the main hall in his pajamas.
Sure enough, there were five instructors who were all above 40 years old standing side by side. They even had their backs facing everyone, looking extremely solemn and serious.
Mofan looked around him and saw that everyone had gathered. Everyone was looking forward to it. After all, today was the day when the rewards were distributed.
Mofan had nothing to do with the rewards. He was only a substitute in name, so he was not very interested in it.
"You guys did okay, nothing went wrong," Feng Li, who had a face full of wrinkles, said. Feng Li, whose forehead was covered in wrinkles, said. It was obvious that he was not satisfied with the performance of the national team. It was only passable.
"It's actually not bad. After all, the East Maritime Fortress did experience a huge tide. According to captain Ai Jiangtu's report, Mu Ningxue's performance was outstanding, "Song He smiled.
Song He was the headmaster of Imperial College. As a matter of fact, he was quite concerned about Mu Ningxue. He was only saying that in hopes that Feng Li would be lenient.
However, Feng Li was a merciless man. He glanced at everyone and said calmly, "It seems like Mu Ningxue is the only one who hasn't reached the Advanced Level yet."
Mu Ningxue did not say anything.
"Advisor, I do think Mu Ningxue is very important to the team. Even though she hasn't reached the Advanced Level, I believe we should give her the resources that were allocated to our team. She can become an Advanced Magician, too. After all, she's the one with the most outstanding performance," Jiang Shaoxu said.
Mu Tingying frowned when she heard the suggestion.
Was this Jiang Shaoxu out of his mind? A Galaxy Vein was extremely important to the team. They were all Magicians with three Elements, and they all needed to reach the Advanced Level. They would need a lot of resources. Why was he siding with Mu Ningxue!?
She was usually the sharpest person in the team, yet she was trying to be the good guy now!
"I know, but rules are rules. Your new teammate has already flown to Japan. They will arrive tomorrow. Mu Ningxue, you can pack your things and come back with us," Feng Li said.
Song He was left speechless.
The other three advisors did not say anything, either.
