Full-Time Magister: The Failed Knight, But the Dark Angel

Chapter 174 Jiang Shaoxu Cries

Mu Ningwei said softly, "Bai Tingting, your strength is quite good. However, since you are positioned as a support mage, your competition with Nan Rongni can only be in terms of cultivation level."

"Nan Rongni's third skill has reached the intermediate level three and is preparing to break through. So you will still be in the second team this time."

Bai Tingting looked at Nan Rongni in disbelief, as if struck by a heavy blow.

Her third element is already at the mid-level three!?

Why is there such a big difference?

Nan Rongni said gently, "Tingting, don't be sad. I know how hard you've worked. I'll be waiting for your next challenge and will treat you as my opponent to train hard."

Haha, you work hard, I work hard too, but you'll never rise to the top in your lifetime!

Bai Tingting was upset, but she forced a smile. "Brother Mu, I will continue to work hard..."

Mu Ningwei reassured her, "Your roles and Nan Rongni's are slightly different. Nan Rongni is a pure support, while you are more versatile. During the Venus Tournament, I will arrange your appearances based on the situation on the field."

Bai Tingting breathed a sigh of relief.

It turns out she wasn't a substitute; she only got a chance to play when Nan Rongni wasn't feeling well.

She is also a formal support player.

Mu Ningwei continued, "I'll be going back to Shanghai in the next couple of days to see if there are any promising students at Mingzhu Academy."

"You seem to be particularly interested in this prestigious university. Do you have any recommendations?"

Bai Tingting immediately thought, "Dongfang Lie from the Dongfang family is quite good. He has a natural talent for fire magic, which increases the power of his spells by one level."

"In addition... there's Senior Ding Yumin. She also has a natural talent for fire magic, doubling the range of her magical attacks. Besides that, her mental magic is also very powerful."

"Speaking of Senior Ding Yumin, I was actually quite surprised that she didn't win any votes and had to participate in the final selection with us. She's clearly very capable."

Mu Ningwei knew the answer.

Ding Yumin is a victim of the mental illness, so Dean Xiao naturally wouldn't let her participate in the Venus Competition.

This stands in stark contrast to Song He, the former dean of the Imperial University of Beijing.

However, now that he is on the Shenzhou team, and Qin Yu'er, a victim of the disaster, is already on the team.

Bringing Ding Yumin into the competition would be no problem at all.

Anyone who has a problem should first ask Qin Yu'er, the cursed sorcerer who suffered the disaster, before arguing with her.

When the time comes, Mu Ningwei will bring several emperors to hear what the other party has to say.

Bai Tingting's eyes were expectant. "Brother Mu, you're going back to Shanghai for a few days. Why don't you come over to my place?"

"My aunt has been saying she wants to meet you ever since she saw you."

Mu Ningwei chuckled lightly, "Alright."

The main purpose of this trip back to Shanghai is to plant the demonic seeds of the White Fluffy Heavenly Tree.

Of course, if the opportunity arises, it would be fine to help the Mu family subdue the other two powerful families as well.

Bai Tingting exclaimed with delight, "I'm going to share this great news with my aunt right now!"

After Bai Tingting took her leave, Mu Ningwei looked at Nan Rongni.

"What about the Nanrong family?"

Nan Rongni was confident, "The family foresaw the future turmoil in the ocean and wanted to join the Mu family's cause to protect themselves."

"But after discussing it with my parents, and with your backing, they decided to try collaborating with Jiao Weixin Group in industries outside the ocean, to see how things go for now."

"Once I become a high-level mage, I can start to take control of the family and serve you better."

Mu Ningwei nodded.

After the Venus Tournament ended, it was some time before the Siren Invasion officially began.

As long as the Nanrong family obeyed orders at that time, that was enough.

Nan Rongni said with some regret, "You'll be leaving for a few days. I need to go home tonight to share the news that I can stay in the team and ask for some resources. I won't be able to serve you anymore."

"Without me, Sister Blue Bat is a little reserved. I hope she can satisfy you tonight."

Mu Ningwei rolled her eyes at her. "Go back to your home."

Blue Bat possesses the body of an emperor, and its combat power has long surpassed that of Mu Ningwei, so it will not suffer defeat again.

Of course, Mu Ningwei did not lose either.

He was able to stay up all night, but he had things to deal with during the day and couldn't continue the battle, which allowed him to maintain his dignity as a man.

When Mu Ningwei's physique also advances to the Emperor level, it will be the moment for him and Blue Bat to have their final battle at the Forbidden City!

……

"Professor Ning Wei!"

Outside the fighting arena, Nan Jue, standing gracefully, waved and called out to Mu Ningwei:

"Do you have time later?"

Mu Ningwei shook his head, "I have something else to do later."

Nan Jue replied obediently, "Then I'll come to see you again tomorrow."

I'm going back to Shanghai tomorrow.

"what……"

Nan Jue was slightly disappointed.

Mu Ningwei pondered, "How about this, I'll go back to Shanghai to select promising talents from the National Pavilion. You can come with me, and you can compete to test their abilities."

Nan Jue was overjoyed. "Great! I'll go pack my bags right away. See you tomorrow, Professor Ning Wei!"

Mu Ningwei watched Nan Jue leave, took out his phone to check the time, and headed to a coffee shop outside the Imperial Capital Academy.

A beautiful young woman with a foxy face elegantly sips her coffee, chatting with a smiling man who comes to chat her up, making him blush with just a few words.

When Jiang Shaoxu saw Mu Ningwei, her beautiful eyes flickered slightly. "Oh, my boyfriend is here. Excuse me, I'll be right back."

"Boyfriend?"

The boy looked like the sky had fallen, and upon seeing Mu Ningwei, he lowered his head in even more self-consciousness.

"You have a boyfriend... Waaah!"

The boy hurriedly apologized to Mu Ningwei, tears welling in his eyes, his gaze lost, and he fled in a panic.

Mu Ningwei sighed, "You've hurt a young boy's fragile heart."

Jiang Shaoxu covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes gleaming mischievously:

"There are so many bad women out there. Meeting me is a lesson learned, at least it's better than being cheated out of money and sex."

"Moreover, it provided me with enjoyment, so it was a win-win situation."

"What does Professor Ning Wei think?"

Mu Ningwei wanted to teach this wicked woman a lesson on behalf of the boy from earlier.

Shaking his head, putting the little incident from his mind, Mu Ningwei handed out a spatial bracelet:

"You seem to be in a good mood, so the gift I prepared was a bit unnecessary."

"I have to thank Professor Ning Wei for this; he gently comforted me when I was feeling down."

Jiang Shaoxu picked up the spatial bracelet and started chatting, "I really like the jewelry that Teacher Ning Wei gave me~"

Mu Ning remained silent.

Jiang Shaoxu probed the space bracelet with her mind, and inside was a huge white lion's head.

It wasn't the lion's head from Chinese cuisine, but a real part of a lion-like demon's body. Its head was as huge as a hill, and its unseeing vertical pupils were wide open in anger, radiating a shimmering light and emanating a sense of oppressive power, as if the terrifying aura it possessed in life still lingered.

Caught off guard, Jiang Shaoxu was startled. She patted her trembling, imposing figure, let out a long sigh, and glared at Mu Ningwei.

"Professor Ning Wei actually gave a girl such a terrifying gift. He might not be able to find a girlfriend in the future."

Mu Ningwei held out her hand. "Give it back if you don't want it."

"That's the head of an emperor."

Jiang Shaoxu didn't react at first, blinked, and then realized what was happening.

This is the head of the Light Emperor who killed Jiang Shaojun...?

Jiang Shaoxu stood there stunned for a few seconds, her mind blank and unresponsive.

She touched her face and realized that it was already covered in tears.

Mu Ningwei looked at Jiang Shaoxu quietly.

In just a few seconds, I watched her go from being nonchalant and playful to shedding all pretense and masks, her expression numb as she silently wept, until finally she realized what was happening and broke down in tears, looking completely unrecognizable.

Mu Ningwei immediately blocked the sound and hid the seat in the dark.

Jiang Shaoxu was not allowed to disturb the other people in the coffee shop.

This will also prevent passersby from disturbing Jiang Shaoxu's venting.
