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

Chapter 181 The Hands-Off Manager: Mu Ningwei

Mu Ningwei sized up the two of them. "I heard from the information provided by Dean Xiao—"

"Dongfang Lie, Fire-type talent - Mutant Star Child, mid-level mastery of Fire and Earth elements."

"Ding Yumin, Fire-type talent - Magic Area Amplification, Fire-type mid-level maxed out, Mind-type high-level level one. Is that correct?"

Ding Yumin: "Yes, Professor Ning Wei."

Dongfang Lie suddenly looked at Ding Yumin, who was standing beside him, looking as serene as a painting.

He considered himself the number one guard in the museum team and the strongest genius in Shanghai, but Ding Yumin had already quietly become a high-level mage?

The clown in Dongfang Lie's eyes is actually my own bitterness.

Mu Ningwei nodded. "I will train you for a while. After that, you will need to spar with the current National Team members. If you win, you will join the team; if you lose, you will leave. Whether you can seize the opportunity depends on yourselves."

Dongfang Lie's fighting spirit ignited. "Mentor Ning Wei, we will do our best!"

No, you're the only one who needs to work hard.

As a victim of the disaster, Ding Yumin was basically guaranteed admission to the National Government Team.

Dongfang Lie is far behind, and even with his innate talent as a powerful weapon, he may not be able to catch up with the others.

Mu Ningwei spoke up, "Now that you understand the situation, say goodbye to your families. I'll take you to other places to gain experience."

Dongfang Lie: "Mentor Ning Wei, I'm ready!"

Ding Yumin turned her head, and Dean Xiao nodded slightly.

Ding Yumin took a light breath. "Professor Ning Wei, I'm ready too."

"In that case, come with me."

……

The Dunhuang Mogao Caves are a well-known ancient demon area in China, inhabited by a large number of pure-blooded demons that can be traced back to ancient times.

The scorching sun baked the Gobi Desert beach. After Mu Ningwei got off the dark dragon, the soles of his shoes sank into the weathered sand.

Qin Yu'er and Ding Yumin, two beauties in the group, with flowing black and white hair dancing gracefully.

Mu Ningwei looked on with admiration; in the desolate Gobi Desert, the two women were the most dazzling and beautiful flowers.

"Is this Zhuoyuan?"

After admiring the perfect man, Mo Fan noticed that the surrounding environment looked somewhat familiar.

Mu Ningwei nodded, "That's right. Zhuoyuan is a region in the country with abundant fire and earth attributes, making it a suitable training ground for fire-type mages. You all possess fire attributes, so it's perfect for you to train together."

Dongfang Lie had mixed feelings about Mo Fan.

Back then, they were competitors.

As time went by, Mo Fan had secured his position as a key player and was now a powerful high-level mage, someone Mo Fan could only look up to.

"Mo Fan, have you been to Zhuoyuan?"

Mo Fan patted his chest. "I know this place well."

Little Flame Princess's hometown is in the Scorching Plains.

Mu Ningwei chuckled, "Since you're familiar with the place, I won't make any further arrangements. As usual, you'll take Dongfang Lie here for training."

"If Dongfang Lie can join the National Team, I can contact the Dongfang family and give you a reward, probably worth one hundred million."

Mo Fan's eyes immediately turned into those of a little money.

His last trip to the United States had already drained his savings.

He still owes money to Ai Jiangtu and others in order to obtain the Tyrant Desolate Thunder Soul Seed.

Although 100 million is not a particularly large sum for Mo Fan now, it can be accomplished by taking Dongfang Lie on a training trip, and there is no punishment for failure. No one would complain about such extra income.

"Brother Dongfang, don't worry, with your brother Fan leading the way, I guarantee you'll win! Just listen to me, challenge Zu Jiming and Mu Tingying, they're the weakest in the team."

Dongfang Lie's lips twitched. Had he really been handed over to Mo Fan to be raised by Instructor Ning Wei?

Is this reliable...?

"Professor Ning Wei, what about me?"

Ding Yumin raised her hand to ask.

She noticed that only Dongfang Lie needed to follow Mo Fan for training.

Ding Yumin completely understood this, after all, she was a victim of the disaster and certainly could not leave her mentor's sight.

She just wanted to ask about her own plans.

Mu Ningwei gestured to Qin Yu'er.

Qin Yu'er's voice was cold and clear, "You will learn from me how to control the power of your talent."

"good!"

Ding Yumin was overjoyed.

This is exactly what she needs most.

Mu Ningwei handed Mo Fan an A4 sheet of paper, and Mo Fan patted Dongfang Lie on the shoulder, "Come with me."

Dongfang Lie turned back every three steps, looking bewildered, and asked, "What should we do?"

Mo Fan cleared his throat. "You'll be working under Instructor Ning Wei, so you need to familiarize yourself with the rules here."

"First, during the training, there is a permanent side quest: slaying demons."

"Master Ning Wei's dark minions will collect the corpses of demons for us and sell them afterwards. In other words, the more demons we kill, the more money we earn, and we don't have to worry about not being able to take them all with us."

"The remnants of souls that were released during this period belong to the servants of darkness; this is their payment for their labor."

"The essence belongs to us."

"At crucial moments, by sacrificing your essence, you can also request the Dark Servant to bring you a large amount of food, water, medicine, antidote, and other resources."

Dongfang Lie was surprised. "So, that means we can keep killing demons without worrying about logistics?"

Mo Fan nodded.

Dongfang Lie exclaimed, "Instructor Ning Wei is truly amazing! Where are his dark servants?"

Mo Fan glanced at the writhing words on the A4 paper, then gave Dongfang Lie's shadow a meaningful look:

"Who knows? Maybe it's hiding in your shadow. If your size is too small when you go to the toilet, it might even laugh at you."

Dongfang Lie's face turned pale.

Mo Fan's lips curled up as he continued explaining, "Mentor Ning Wei will also help us compile a list of the most valuable resources around us and distribute them as main quests."

……

Mu Ning was somewhat surprised.

Mo Fan actually guessed it?

On the surface, the Dark Servant is indeed listed on the mission slip.

However, for safety reasons, Mu Ningwei still arranged a dark servant in the shadow of each person during the training.

Especially the dark servants in the shadows of light and shadow mages, whose strength is at least at the peak commander level, to prevent them from noticing and to avoid a lack of sense of crisis during training.

Unexpectedly, Mo Fan still managed to notice.

Mu Ningwei sighed, realizing he had underestimated Mo Fan.

"Ding Yumin".

"Professor Ning Wei."

Ding Yumin looked over.

Mu Ningwei asked, "Are you aware of how special your identity is? What are your plans for the future?"

Ding Yumin shook her head. "I originally thought that I would stay at Mingzhu Academy for the rest of my life, to take care of Dean Xiao in his old age, and if I could control the disaster, I would stay at Mingzhu Academy."

"If we can't control it, we'll settle in a small place on the edge of Anjie."

"Now that I've met two mentors, my past thoughts are no longer important."

Mu Ningwei nodded, "If that's the case, then I'll make the arrangements."

"I can train you to become a forbidden spell, but the price is that you need to join my group and not do anything that goes against the group's interests."

"Dean Xiao has been kind to you. If you want, you can take over his position as dean after he gets old and take care of him in his old age—after all, Shanghai is my territory."

The Mu family is unifying the other two aristocratic families and is even ambitiously waiting for the opportunity to be promoted to a clan.

Mu Ningwei said that Shanghai was his territory and there was absolutely no problem with it.
