Full-Time Magister: I can control you to death

Nan Jue never misses an opportunity to look down on him.

Zu Jiming roared, "Afraid? I'm afraid? Xu Fang is nothing... Even if he can beat me, he can't eliminate me. I'm a poison-type!"

So what if it's Xu Fang?

Even if they beat me up, as the only poison mage in the team, I will never be eliminated by the mentor!

This is Zujiming's greatest source of confidence!

Nan Jue snorted coldly. Although she didn't want to admit it, Zu Jiming's words made sense. It was indeed hard to agree that a functional mage like a poison mage should be eliminated.

During this attack on Kasuo, Zujiming sneakily attacked from a distance, corroding a hole in Kasuo's poison armor.

On the other side, Xu Fang found Li Kaifeng.

Li Kaifeng was standing in a corner, his expression shifting between light and dark.

He knew the situation was dire; he knew he would most likely have to send it this time, and once he did, he would have to slink back to China in disgrace.

Unlike Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue, he wasn't shameless enough to stay on the team after being eliminated, waiting for a comeback.

If I am eliminated, the only possibility is to tuck my tail between my legs and return to the Da Li family, where I will be ridiculed by my uncles and brothers who have long been envious of me!

Just then, a person walked over.

"Xu Fang?"

Li Kaifeng was stunned for a moment.

His relationship with Xu Fang wasn't exactly good. Both of them were from the South, and their personalities clashed; they simply couldn't see eye to eye.

"Talk?"

Xu Fang said.

"Go ahead." Li Kaifeng subconsciously stepped aside to let Xu Fang pass, then reached into his pocket to take out a cigarette.

and many more!

Li Kaifeng slapped his head in frustration.

Why did I even take out a cigarette? Xu Fang is clearly someone my age and on the same level as me, why am I being such a coward!

Chapter 293 The Tyrannical Zu Jiming, the Mentor's Favorite Candidate

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Li Kaifeng asked.

Xu Fang leaned against the wall and laughed, "You'll most likely have to withdraw from this elimination round, right?"

"Are you here to laugh at me?"

Li Kaifeng's expression immediately turned cold.

"No, no, no, of course not." Xu Fang's smile remained unchanged: "I just want to do a business deal with you and replace someone else with the one who gets eliminated."

Li Kaifeng's heart raced, and he subconsciously asked, "Who else? Zu Jiming?"

"I've disliked that jerk for a long time. Kick him down so he won't get in my way." Xu Fang glanced at Li Kaifeng sideways. "What do you think?"

Li Kaifeng swallowed hard, then slowly smiled. "I've also disliked Zu Jiming for a long time..."

"What a coincidence!"

Xu Fang clapped his hands: "So, this deal is done?"

"What do you want to do?" Li Kaifeng asked hesitantly, "Even if you defeat him, you may not be able to eliminate him."

In fact, the person the team least wanted to encounter was Xu Fang, followed by Ai Jiangtu, Mo Fan, and Jiang Shaoxu.

These people are practically invincible in one-on-one combat; you can simply admit defeat when you encounter them without being looked down upon.

"Then you don't need to worry about it." Xu Fang held up one finger: "I won't waste any more words. It's a control magic device. I know your family makes this kind of thing. Don't try to fool me with inferior goods."

"Control magic artifacts? This thing is more valuable than the Star River Vein!" Li Kaifeng almost jumped up.

Xu Fang's expression remained unchanged.

Li Kaifeng's expression shifted between anger and uncertainty as he tried to negotiate the price: "Could you lower the price a bit..."

"I suddenly think Little Gigi is quite cute." Xu Fang turned to leave, but Li Kaifeng quickly grabbed him: "Alright, alright, let's control the magic artifact!"

"I want it in stock," Xu Fang said.

"This is Mexico, where am I supposed to find it for you..."

“You have it on you.” Xu Fang held out his hand: “I want it now.”

Helpless and heartbroken, Li Kaifeng took out his control artifact and reluctantly handed it to Xu Fang.

"Tsk, so moist."

Xu Fang praised, "This control artifact is clearly no ordinary item."

The reason for needing this item is twofold. Firstly, the funds are in place, and it's time to advance my ice-based cultivation and prepare to advance to a high-level mage. Ice-based cultivation has been neglected for far too long.

On the other hand, there's my own "Gan Shi Xing Jing" (Gan Shi Star Scripture). I've recently had some insights into it and am interested in conducting an experiment to see if controlling the magic weapon can help me improve my efficiency.

Li Kaifeng watched helplessly as Xu Fang grasped his beloved magical artifact and fiercely engraved his spiritual imprint on it.

The control device hummed for a while, its sound indistinguishable as either pain or pleasure. After a slight tremor, it returned to calm and was left to Xu Fang's control.

—Even more smoothly and naturally than when I used it myself!

Li Kaifeng felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife.

I'm sorry, darling, I really want to stay in the team, so I'm afraid you'll have to make do...

“You have to promise me I can stay in the team,” Li Kaifeng said.

"No, no, no, I can only guarantee that Zu Jiming will be eliminated," Xu Fang corrected.

"That's enough."

Li Kaifeng felt there was no difference between the two.

In each elimination round, the mentors can only take one person away. As long as Zu Jiming is eliminated, he can safely get on the other side.

Honestly, his relationship with Zujiming is alright, but at this crucial moment... let's put our brothers through this!

Xu Fang didn't ask Guan Yu the same question.

Guan Yu is the kind of young man who is a little proud, just like Mu Bai, stubborn and inflexible.

Most importantly, he was poor. He spent all his money on that top-quality thorn magic tool and didn't even have enough to buy a pair of good magic shoes. He couldn't squeeze any money out of him.

······

"Let the duel begin," Feng Li said.

The mentors are all like the wind, coming and going as soon as they've finished their business, just like university counselors.

First up is 1A versus 1B, with Ai Jiangtu facing off against Mu Tingying.

Mu Tingying was quite dissatisfied with her mentor classifying her as "B", especially in front of her old enemy, Mu Ningxue.

What made her even more humiliated was that Ai Jiangtu showed no mercy whatsoever, and a round of spatial magic left her completely bewildered.

"Next match, Xu Fang will face Zu Jiming," Dean Song He said.

Xu Fang walked up from one side of the stage with his hands in his pockets, while Zu Jiming slowly walked up from the other side.

"2B, do you have something to say?" Xu Fang asked.

"Don't be so arrogant!" Zu Jiming said angrily.

Xu Fang picked at his ear, held it in front of him, and blew on it: "You're not convinced? Then keep it to yourself."

"grass!"

Zujiming, who considered himself a man, roared and immediately cast a spell: "Poison Cave - Widespread Infection!"

High-level magic takes time. Zujiming had absorbed a special poisonous substance, and that overwhelming wave of toxins rushed towards Xu Fang.

"What's the point of this?"

Mo Fan yawned from below the stage.

Doesn't that idiot Zu Jiming know how powerful Huang Mao's light magic is?

I reckon a single Divine Shield spell should be enough to solve this, followed by any additional attack spell, and Zujimin will be finished...

The others shared the same thought, but to their surprise, Xu Fang actually took out a vessel from his storage magic tool.

Open the lid, and a swarm of insects buzzed out.

"poisonous insect?"

Everyone was stunned, and Feng Li and Song He almost spat out their tea.

Xu Fang actually raised poisonous insects?

"This is too dangerous. Why raise poisonous insects when there are no poison-type insects? What if the insects turn on us?" Songhe said anxiously.

In his early years, he also traveled around and met insect shamans in primitive tribes in the rainforest.

Those insect sorcerers who wanted to raise poisonous insects had to feed the insects with their own bodies. Each hair follicle stored a large number of insect eggs, eventually turning them into ruthless egg-laying machines.

He worried that Xu Fang would also go down this path.

"Don't worry!"

Feng Li stopped him, his eyes shining brightly: "Did you notice that these poisonous insects are trained like an army... And look at the light emanating from Xu Fang, those poisonous insects don't dare to get close at all... How can they do that?"

Xu Fang opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

But no one present thought he was crazy; instead, they believed he was using sonic magic to command the swarm of insects.

Facing Zujimin's poisonous fog, the poisonous insects fearlessly charged straight at him.

Zu Jiming's face turned green as he watched helplessly as Xu Fang's poisonous insects danced merrily in his poisonous mist before swooping down on him.

"Damn it..."

—These were the last words Zu Jiming said before leaving the field.

Lost.
