Versatile Mage: Soul and Demon Dual Cultivation.

Chapter 289 Convergence
Lin Chen returned to the big villa in the Magic City and found that Mu Nujiao was still practicing hard. Seeing Lin Chen coming, Mu Nujiao felt a little resentful and blamed Lin Chen for disturbing her practice.

Fortunately, Mu Nujiao's strength is more than enough to participate in the National Government Competition, so she can only give up her precious training time to accompany Lin Chen.

Lin Chen was also quite tactful and did not disturb Mu Nujiao all the time. When it was time to practice, Lin Chen would let her practice with peace of mind. Of course, she had to attend the necessary classes during this period.

At the same time, Lin Chen also began to practice. Lin Chen’s soul power level had reached level 98. He only needed to condense the third soul core to break through to the Extreme Douluo.

Lin Chen was not in a hurry to condense the third soul core. Lin Chen began to add corresponding soul rings to his martial soul.

For Lin Chen, the age of the spirit ring is important, but not the most critical, so Lin Chen only adds suitable spirit rings. The age of the spirit ring can be increased through the devouring ability of the Yin-Yang Sword.

Absorbing spirit rings is a boring thing. Lin Chen combines work and rest. Besides doing homework with Mu Nujiao every day, he also goes out to Qingtian Hunting House to play with Xiao Lingling. Perhaps because of the cultivation of martial spirits, he always feels that Xiao Lingling has grown a lot and has grown taller than his peers!

Lingling also has special feelings towards Lin Chen. When they are playing, the two often have physical contact, but little Lingling doesn't care about it at all.

After spending a long time together, Xiao Lingling finally understood Lin Chen's thoughts and began to face her own heart, which led to her gradually taking on the role of a child bride.

As the time for the competition drew closer, Lin Chen did not forget to use the Three-Step Tower of the Magic City Academy and break through the newly awakened magic systems to a high level.

After Lin Chen walked out of the Three-Step Tower, he received a call from Dean Xiao, who reminded him not to forget the time to meet up for the competition. Lin Chen was already a designated member, so he did not need to participate in the trials and could report directly.

For an old hand like Lin Chen, it wouldn't matter if he went a few days late, but Lin Chen still decided to go to the imperial capital on time to meet up. In the original novel, Mu Ningxue was implicated because of Mu Zhuoyun. Now Mu Ningxue is a super-class mage after all, and the strength of all the designated team members is not as good as Mu Ningxue.

Similarly, Lin Chen was also very curious about how big of an impact Jiang Tianyuan played behind the scenes.

As for Mu Nujiao, Lin Chen was even less worried. With Mu Nujiao's strength, the selection competition was just a formality.

After making an appointment with Mu Ningxue, Lin Chen bought a plane ticket to the imperial capital and flew there.

……

Lin Chen, who had lived in the Magic City for a long time, seldom came to the Imperial City. He only came to the Imperial City when he was secretly dating Mu Ningxue in Bo City. Therefore, Lin Chen was quite familiar with the Imperial City. After getting off the plane, he directly called a car and came to the apartment rented by Mu Ningxue.

Although the Mu family has left the imperial capital, Mu Ningxue's apartment has not yet been vacated. In Mu Ningxue's words, this apartment carries the beautiful memories of the two of them. Originally, Lin Chen wanted to buy this small apartment directly, but he didn't expect that the landlord would not sell it at all. Lin Chen and Mu Ningxue didn't force it. They just rented it. It wouldn't cost much anyway.

Mu Ningxue had been busy in Feiniao City, but Lin Chen arrived there first. He didn't see Mu Ningxue until the evening. A short separation was better than a new marriage, and the two of them were very affectionate as soon as they met.

On the day of Mid-Autumn Festival, there is still a cool breeze in the imperial capital.

In the center of the Imperial Capital Academy, there is a most magnificent magic duel arena. The entire arena is star-shaped, covered by a black four-arc dome that can be closed or opened. Surrounding it is a vast seating area that can accommodate 50,000 people. It is magnificent. At this moment, the seats in the duel arena are empty, but in the center of the arena there are about ten young wizards, who are standing in a row, wearing handsome magic robes. When the wind blows, the cloaks are blown up, which can be described as heroic!

A pair of handsome men and beautiful women held hands and slowly walked towards the center of the duel arena!
Dean Songhe, who was about to speak, did not rush to speak when he saw Lin Chen and Mu Ningxue arrive, but waited for them to return.

All the teachers and students also looked towards Lin Chen. Lin Chen did not recognize most of these students. At this time, Jiang Fox was looking at Lin Chen with a charming smile on her face.

When Lin Chen approached, he saw that one of the serious-looking teachers had a dark face. He didn't care and nodded slightly to Dean Songhe and other leading teachers: "Sorry, teacher, we are late!"

Lin Chen is not the kind of person who looks down on others. As the saying goes, if someone respects me one foot, I will respect him ten feet. The world of martial arts is not just about fighting and killing. Those who defy the world will die quickly.

In addition to the nine students, there were also five teachers. Seeing Lin Chen's sincere attitude, the instructors didn't take it too seriously.

Especially someone like Lin Chen who has connections. That’s right, before the gathering, all the instructors already knew about Lin Chen and Mu Ningxue’s situation, and the top leaders of the Wei side even made a special visit to say hello.

Song He smiled faintly and said, "The road conditions in the imperial capital are indeed not very good. It is normal to be late. You two should return to the team first!"

Dean Songhe has already spoken, and the other teachers didn't say much. Someone greeted them and said that as long as Lin Chen and Mu Ningxue didn't do anything too embarrassing, there was no need for these tutors to be too serious. It would be truly good if everyone was good and you were good.

Just as Lin Chen and Mu Ningxue were about to join the team, a girl with brown hair stood up and challenged them, "Mu Ningxue, have you come to the wrong place? This is a ceremony for the main players. Let's not talk about your status as a substitute, it's hard to say whether you will be considered a national player in the future..."

Lin Chen took a deep look at the girl. He knew that the girl in front of him was Mu Tingying from the Mu family, who was strongly recommended by the Mu family.

Mu Tingying hated Mu Ningxue very much because with her status in the Mu clan, she actually became Mu Ningxue's substitute. After being suppressed by Mu Ningxue's reputation for so many years, God finally opened his eyes and helped her.

The other students looked a little surprised. In addition to having good talents, the selected students also had certain backgrounds. Mu Tingying hinted that the affairs of the ancient capital were no secret to them, and most people understood what was going on.

Before Mu Ningxue could speak, Lin Chen yawned and said to Mu Tingying, "Excuse me, who are you?"

Hearing this, Mu Tingying was stunned at first, then she raised her head and chest and said confidently: "I am Mu Tingying from the Mu family!"

Lin Chen raised the corner of his mouth, with a slightly mocking smile on his face, and asked: "So, you are not a mentor?"

"I'm not..." Mu Tingying said without even thinking.
