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

Chapter 175 Nan Jue Beats Up Dongfang Lie

The girl's emotions came on quickly, probably from years of accumulated negative emotions. The head of the demon who killed her brother was the trigger, and all of them simply erupted, making a beautiful and charming girl abandon her reserve, ignore others, and cry uncontrollably.

Mu Ningwei felt that this was probably a good thing.

Perhaps it's because I've been a mentor for so long that my way of thinking has gradually become more like that of an "elder".

Mu Ningwei didn't empathize much with Jiang Shaoxu; he only hoped that today's venting would dissipate her negative emotions, prevent her from dwelling excessively on the deceased, and fill the void in her heart.

Mu Ningwei looked at Jiang Shaoxu, somewhat conflicted.

The pretty girl is crying so hard that snot bubbles are coming out of her nose. Should we hand her a tissue, or wait until she finishes crying so as not to disturb her?

Mu Ningwei took out a tissue, placed it quietly on the table, and then turned her head to look at the scenery outside.

Unfortunately, his actions seemed to disturb Jiang Shaoxu, and the mournful cries of the flash flood abruptly ceased.

Mu Ningwei turned his head and saw Jiang Shaoxu pick up a tissue, lower her head and bury her face in her long hair, wiping it with her hands.

"...I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Professor Ning Wei."

Jiang Shaoxu clutched the crumpled, damp tissue, raised her head, and whispered shyly.

Mu Ningwei shook his head. "Tears are like rain; only by crying can you wash away the dust that covers your soul. I don't think there's anything shameful about crying; on the contrary, it shows that you are loyal and righteous."

Jiang Shaoxu curled her long hair with her fingers, her wet eyelashes wide open, her clear, moist eyes like a clean, sunny sky after rain, and spoke slowly:

"If I hold it in and plan to hide in a corner and cry, wouldn't Professor Ning Wei think I'm heartless?"

Mu Ningwei said matter-of-factly, "If you hadn't cried, I would have just thought you were too strong."

"...So gentle."

Jiang Shaoxu smiled with relief, rested her chin on her hand, turned her face to the side, and looked up at the birds and beasts flying under the blue sky and white clouds and the sun with her clear eyes.

My mind has never felt so relaxed, so peaceful.

Mu Ningwei said goodbye, "Then I'll head back now."

Jiang Shaoxu smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, I will help Instructor Ning Wei keep it a secret that you are already a forbidden spell mage."

Mu Ningwei stood up. "That's not necessary. I haven't become a forbidden spell yet. I was able to kill the White Lion Emperor with the help of some of my companions."

"I see... Anyway, please let me say thank you."

Jiang Shaoxu turned her head, her eyes fixed intently on him, "Professor Ning Wei, thank you for your kindness. I will remember this favor."

Mu Ningwei waved his hand, "That won't be necessary. Providing me with the position of the White Lion Emperor will also be of some help to me... Anyway, see you later."

"See you later."

Jiang Shaoxu watched Mu Ningwei leave, and the sound of a piano drifted into her ears from the coffee shop.

"Professor Ning Wei isolated me from the visuals and sound, preserving my composure..."

Jiang Shaoxu let out a long sigh of relief, "How considerate."

Jiang Shaoxu is preparing to go home.

It's nothing much, I just want to persuade my parents to cooperate more with the Mu family or Jiao Weixin Group.

……

The next day.

Pearl Academy, Dean's Office.

"Ning Wei, welcome back."

"And Teacher Yu'er, and student Nan Jue, please come and sit down."

Dean Xiao was still wearing his familiar blue mage robe, which was perfectly pressed without a single wrinkle. He was tall and slender, exuding the air of a seasoned scholar, and greeted the three of them with a hearty smile.

"Dean Xiao, it's been a long time."

Mu Ningwei greeted him.

Qin Yu'er and Nan Jue sat on the left and right respectively, and after calling out "Dean Xiao", they remained quiet so as not to disturb the two of them catching up.

Dean Xiao watched as Mu Ningwei debuted in the center position, exuding confidence and boundless charm, and sighed with admiration:

"To be honest, I really didn't expect that you would have grown to this extent in such a short time since we first met."

"I'm afraid even I, an old man, am no match for you."

Mu Ningwei found it amusing that Dean Xiao always kept in mind his status as a super-level mage, no wonder he was able to deceive everyone.

"Dean Xiao is too kind; I dare not compare myself to my seniors."

Dean Xiao smiled but remained silent.

Which predecessor could compare to your past glory of instantly killing the Lu family patriarch and beheading the Sha Yuan Wangjun?

When Mu Ningwei got down to business, he said, "Dean Xiao knows that I am now the coach of the National Team. I came back to Mingzhu Academy this time to see if there are any good talents in my alma mater."

"That's great, I'll cooperate with you in selecting students."

Dean Xiao suddenly smiled and said, "Speaking of which, Ning Wei, you are still a student at Mingzhu Academy and haven't graduated yet."

"What a pity. If you hadn't been suspended, the title of this year's Venus Grand Prix would have been ours."

Mu Ningwei said confidently, "Even if I am suspended, we will definitely be the champions this year."

"Nan Jue is one of the main players in the National Team. She will be the one to test the students' abilities later."

Dean Xiao looked Nan Jue up and down. "Alright, let me see how many of the young geniuses in the academy are ahead of Ning Wei's top student."

Nan Jue bowed slightly. "Dean Xiao, as the only student brought by Instructor Ning Wei, I won't hold back."

"Haha, very confident, not bad!"

Dean Xiao made a phone call to inform them, then stood up and gestured for them to proceed.

"Ning Wei, Instructor Yu'er, and the great genius Nan Jue, let's go."

……

"Next."

On the arena, Nan Jue spoke calmly.

Shen Mingxiao looked ashen-faced and left dejectedly after the plant cage disappeared.

From the stands, Dean Xiao remarked with some emotion, "Such skillful plant magic! You've already defeated three defending members in a row. Ning Wei, you've cultivated yet another 'Shepherd Girl'!"

Mu Ningwei smiled and said, "Nan Jue and Nu Jiao are quite different. Plant science is just a minor subject for her. She can easily defeat her opponents because of her mental strength."

Dean Xiao exclaimed in surprise, "It's just a minor? I thought it would at least be a secondary course, and that the next team member would be able to pose a threat to your students. It seems I was just being naive."

Mu Ningwei looked over and saw Dean Xiao pull out Dongfang Lie's nameplate.

"Is that Dongfang Lie, who has innate talent?"

Mu Ningwei became somewhat interested.

……

As one of the national academies of China, Mingzhu Academy has a large number of geniuses in its guard team, including many young talents who were eliminated in the nomination competition and were only one step away from the national academy team.

Upon hearing that defeating the woman brought by Instructor Ning Wei would guarantee a direct selection for the National Team, all the guards arrived at the scene.

To ensure fairness, Dean Xiao decided to draw lots to determine the order of appearance.

"Next up, Dongfang Lie!"

Dongfang Lie stepped onto the arena, immediately attracting a lot of attention.

He is a star student in the team that guards the gym, and many people believe that he is a match for Nan Jue.

"Senior Nanjue, please enlighten me!"

Dongfang Lie's gaze was intense.

Nan Jue tossed her short hair, exuding a dashing and heroic air. "Professor Ning Wei mentioned your name to me; you are one of the key individuals I'm observing."

"So I'll use more force, you'd better hang in there."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Lie beamed with joy, "Okay, Senior Nanjue!"

A sound system of star trails appeared in Nan Jue's hand.
