Versatile Mage: The Crimson Flame Lion, the Strongest Spirit!

Chapter 69: Mu Nujiao joins the team, the Guofu team assembles [Seeking follow-up reading]

Li Xuan took the ring, then smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "Thank you, President Han, and thank you everyone in the ancient capital."

The "Glass Phoenix Feather" in this ring really surprised him.

In the ancient king's memory, this treasure has an extraordinary origin - it comes from the Vermillion Bird, one of the four ancient sacred totems.

Although there are not many records about it, Li Xuan is very interested in the Suzaku flame.

As the symbol of fire, the Suzaku must possess extraordinary power.
When Han Ji saw Li Xuan accept the gift, a relieved smile immediately appeared on his face.

This catastrophe in the ancient capital can be exchanged for the survival of most people and the inner city at the cost of an outer city.

Li Xuan made an indelible contribution!

No one can deny this, and no one can change it.

"Li Xuan, thanks to you, the ancient capital was able to survive this disaster." Han Ji said sincerely, his eyes full of gratitude.

“Although this gift is not enough to express our gratitude, it is a token of our appreciation.”

Li Xuan waved his hand and smiled calmly, "President Han, you're too kind. The safety of the ancient capital is my responsibility. What's more, I've benefited greatly from it."

Han Ji nodded, and then mentioned Mo Fan and Zhang Xiaohou's arrangements.

Mo Fan gets the opportunity to go to Huashan to practice in depth. During this period, the ancient capital will provide Mo Fan with training resources.

As for Zhang Xiaohou, based on his outstanding contributions, Gudu has applied for a promotion for him.

Judging from this situation, Zhang Xiaohou will most likely have smooth sailing in his promotion to military mage in the future.

Another thing is the Mu Ningxue incident that occurred during this period.

The arrest of Hujin Chief Steward Mu He affected Mu Ningxue, who was far away in the imperial capital.

In reality, the Mu family in the imperial capital was wary of public opinion and wanted Mu Ningxue's family to change their surname, saying that members of the Black Church were unworthy of the Mu surname.

However, with Li Xuan's identity, these matters were handled for him before he could even show up.

The news that Mu Ningxue was Li Xuan's woman was known to the entire Imperial Palace.

Naturally, they would not allow the Mu family in the imperial capital to bully Mu Ningxue's family so wantonly!
After all, Pang Lai is a teacher who protects his students.

…………

A few days later, Li Xuan left the ancient capital and returned to the Magic City.

After staying in the ancient capital for quite a while, it was time for him to go back and report his safety to the two girls at home.

By the way, let me find out about Mu Nujiao's situation.

The National Government team will assemble soon, and I don’t know whether she will be selected.

Li Xuan went straight back to his residence.

The moment I opened the door, I saw Mu Nujiao, Ding Yumian and Ai Tutu sitting in the living room, seemingly discussing something.

"Li Xuan!" Ai Tutu was the first to notice him. He immediately jumped up from the sofa and ran over with a look of surprise on his face. "You're finally back! We were so worried!"

Mu Nujiao and Ding Yumian also stood up, a hint of joy flashing in their eyes, but they were always reserved and just said softly, "Welcome back."

Li Xuan looked at the three people and felt a warmth in his heart.

He smiled and reached out to rub Ai Tutu's head: "Why, do you miss me so much?"

"Who missed you! We are just worried that something might happen to you in the ancient capital." Ai Tutu curled his lips and said in a dissatisfied manner.

"Li Xuan, we have all heard about what happened in the ancient capital. Are you hurt?" Mu Nujiao also nodded, with a hint of concern in her tone.

Ding Yumian's beautiful eyes were also looking at Li Xuan.

The specific details have not been released yet, and the outside world only knows that a disaster occurred in the ancient capital.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Li Xuan waved his hand and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Ai Tutu breathed a sigh of relief, then asked curiously, "So, when you come back this time, will you stay here?"

"It will take a while." Li Xuan said ambiguously, and then explained: "The training in the government office is about to begin."

The three girls then realized that Li Xuan was the designated captain.

Li Xuan nodded and said with a smile: "Jiaojiao, did you pass the selection?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Nujiao's face flushed slightly and she said softly, "I passed." She then recounted the series of events that took place during her participation in the selection.

With the resources Li Xuan had previously given her and her hard work, she was now a high-level plant-type expert.

It is natural for a high-level player to crush a mid-level player. In the recommendation competition, she relied on her absolute strength to defeat another genius from Mingzhu Academy, Li Kaifeng.

Become the representative of Mingzhu Academy to join the national team.

"Not bad." Li Xuan praised.

"Great!" Ai Tutu clapped his hands excitedly, "This way, you two can participate in the national team's competition together!

When the time comes, we must let those foreigners see the power of our Mingzhu Academy!"

Li Xuan smiled but said nothing.

In fact, if Ding Yumian wanted, she could also step onto the stage of the World University Competition.

It's just that she doesn't want to.

…………

Time flies.

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

There is a most magnificent magic duel arena in the center of the Imperial Capital Academy.

The entire venue is in the shape of a star, with a large seating area around it that can accommodate 50,000 people. It is magnificent!
This duel ground is rarely open, and it is impossible to hold a magic duel here that has not reached a certain level.

The seats in the dueling arena were empty, but there were about ten young mages in the center of the arena.

They were standing in a row. Ai Jiangtu, Mo Fan, Nan Jue, Mu Ningxue, Zhao Manyan were all there, along with a few others.

National government tutor Feng Li looked at his watch and left these ten people aside without giving them any preferential treatment because of their background and talents.

"Teacher, Brother Xuan said they will be here soon."

Mu Ningxue gently put down her phone, her clear and pleasant voice breaking the silence in the team.

Feng Li smiled brightly, waved his hand gently, and said, "Don't worry, it's okay for me to wait a little longer."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone else in the team was secretly shocked and filled with surprise.

Feng Li was a mentor from the government specially sent by the higher-ups. He was very famous and respected in the wizard world, yet he could actually tolerate the captain being late.

Mu Tingying stood aside, her eyebrows raised in anger, and a fierce gleam in her eyes.

She stared at Mu Ningxue intently, the jealousy in her heart burning like a raging fire.

"Damn Mu Ningxue!" She cursed inwardly.

"Originally, the Black Church incident was just the perfect opportunity to kick her out of the National Government, but then the Forbidden City suddenly showed up."

Mu Tingying was filled with resentment when she thought of the traitor Mu He.

According to common sense, if something like Mu He happened, even if the Mu family in Bocheng had extraordinary abilities, they would still be to blame, and no one could guarantee their safety.

However, the Forbidden City Court did not play by the rules and used its own reputation to guarantee that Mu Ningxue's family was definitely not members of the Black Vatican.

How could this not make her burn with jealousy!
Mu Tingying looked at Feng Li, who looked calm in the team, and then looked at the other four instructors.

They had no objection to Li Xuan's special treatment.

This left her with nowhere to vent her anger, and she could only grit her teeth and bury this resentment deep in her heart...

"Humph, it's just relying on men!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a crisp slap sounded.

"Snapped!"

Mu Yingting covered her burning cheeks in disbelief.

"What qualifications do you have to say that about me?"

A calm and unquestionable voice quietly echoed in the fighting arena.

P.S. Thank you all for reading!!
