Full-Time Magister: Dark Throne

"Just kidding, just kidding."

Ai Tutu chuckled awkwardly, her gaze constantly shifting between He An and Mu Nujiao, especially lingering on He An's face.

"Sister Mu's idol seems pretty handsome. If Sister Mu really manages to win him over, should I join her? Join her? Or join her?"

Just as Ai Tutu was struggling with her inner turmoil, Dean Xiao came to their side.

"He An, your exchange student experience is over. When are you planning to start pushing for the Shadow Ranks?"

The ranking rewards at the main campus are very generous and will greatly help your cultivation.

Dean Xiao looked at He An and asked.

"Dean Xiao, my Shadow skill has already reached the advanced level. Normally, I should be able to apply for an excellent graduation from Pearl Academy. Isn't it a bit too much to still be competing on the rankings?" He An said helplessly.

Upon hearing the news that He An had already reached the advanced level, Dean Xiao's eyes lit up instantly, his face beaming with smiles. He patted He An on the shoulder and remarked with emotion:

"Oh? Your cultivation has already reached the advanced stage? A prodigy, a true prodigy! I, Xiao Bingsen, am already content to have produced a student like you in my entire life!"

"Then, Dean Xiao, what about the rankings?" He An asked.

After a moment's thought, Dean Xiao replied:

"Keep going on the list! Dominating the top spot in the Shadow Department of Pearl Academy will greatly help you get into the National Team."

Not to mention that the top-ranked player also has the qualification to cultivate in the Three-Step Tower and a monthly reward of Dark Matter Fragments.

Remember not to use high-level magic or magical artifacts in the duel. Summoning one Shadow Wolf of Warrior level is enough; otherwise, it's unfair to your opponent.

Paving the way for He An's spot in the World University Competition was only part of the reason.

Another reason is to suppress the arrogance of so-called geniuses.

Dean Xiao had wanted to teach these arrogant students a lesson for far too long.

One or two people, just because they are at the top of the school's rankings, start to get carried away and become arrogant.

If He An didn't only have the Shadow Department, which is considered a large department at Pearl Academy...

Dean Xiao had already sent him to other departments to campaign for students!

Aren't you guys awesome? Aren't you geniuses?

Now a true genius is right in front of you. How many moves can you possibly exchange with him?

The thought of those unruly magical geniuses starting to train hard under He An's pressure is infuriating.

Dean Xiao felt a surge of satisfaction and even hummed a little tune as he left.

-----------------

Compared to the Fire Academy with its thousands of students, the Shadow Academy only has about three hundred students.

Even considering various reasons, including training trips outside the school, the actual number of trainees was only five hundred.

He An was startled by the eerie silence inside the university hall of the Shadow Department as soon as he arrived.

Three hundred students sat scattered throughout the large school, so quiet that even their breathing could be clearly heard.

He randomly found a seat and sat down, but unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance.

"Senior Sister Nie." He An greeted the woman sitting in front of him.

"He An? You've already started participating in the rankings?" Nie Jinyu blinked, looking at He An with a puzzled expression.

Today marks the start of the first challenge week of the month, and most of the people who come to the department's academy at this time are those who are competing on the leaderboard.

Generally speaking, after the exchange program, the university will give the students who participated in the exchange program a short vacation.

This allows trainees to relax their tense minds and bodies after three months of outdoor training.

It was only the second day after the training ended, and most of the exchange students were still fast asleep in bed.

Nie Jinyu only had to come because of some departmental matters.

"It was all Dean Xiao's arrangement, there's nothing I can do about it," He An said helplessly.

"So that's how it is."

Nie Jinyu looked at He An, lost in thought.

Not long after, Lin Hua, the head of the Shadow Department, hurriedly walked in.

"Which one of you is He An?" he asked loudly from the stage.

"Teacher, this is me. How can I help you?"

He An stood up and answered.

Lin Hua looked at He An, who had stood up, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face.

A student who defeated the Imperial Academy joined their Shadow Department. Now let's see who dares to say the Shadow Department is no good?

"Congratulations, He An! From now on, you're ranked tenth on the Shadow faction's leaderboard!"

Unlike Mo Fan in the original work, who was motivated by a desire to motivate these magic students to cultivate diligently.

Under Dean Xiao's arrangement, He An was directly promoted to the top ten of the Shadow System rankings.

Although He An made a name for himself in last year's beast fighting competition and this year's exchange student experience.

However, many students who do not pay attention to these kinds of competitions and focus on cultivating magic have never heard of He An's name.

Unfortunately, Xie Wuyai, who was originally ranked tenth on the list, was just such a person.

"Teacher Lin, who is he? How did he manage to knock me out of tenth place as soon as he entered our Shadow Department?"

Xie Wuyai stood up from his seat, crossed his arms, and looked at He An with a displeased expression.

"Exactly! Exactly!"

"What kind of strength does he have? Why is he ranked tenth? We've trained like crazy and still haven't gotten that high!"

Inside the lobby, some students who had also been pushed out of the rankings and lost resources spoke up in support.

"Enough! What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket?"

Department head Lin Hua frowned and shouted.

Despite his slender build, Lin Hua wields immense power within the Shadow faction.

With just a shout, the university hall fell silent instantly.

"If you have any complaints, you can issue a challenge now. If you lose, you'd better go back to your training!"

Lin Hua looked at the crowd sitting below the stage and spoke loudly.

"Come on! Get on stage!"

Before Lin Hua could finish speaking, Xie Wuyai had already used Shadow Escape to arrive at the largest arena.

He could no longer tolerate this parachuted-in relative sitting above him.

"it is good."

He An didn't say much, just nodded, and also used Shadow Step to appear on the opposite side of the arena.

"Alright, let the challenge begin!" Lin Hua announced with a smile as he looked at the two on the stage.

I've always heard about He An's deeds, and now I can finally see what he's really capable of!

"Giant Shadow..."

Xie Wuyai had barely uttered two words when he was struck in succession by two giant shadow nails that flew out from the black rift.

A nail stuck in his body!

Two nails to stabilize!

Xie Wuyai's rapidly connecting star chart collapsed upon being struck by the second nail, and his mind was completely suppressed.

"One, a single thought of the star map?!"

The trainees below the stage covered their heads in shock, watching the scene unfold on the competition field.

Although extremely rare among them, those who can create a star map with a single thought are not nonexistent.

But someone as fast as He An, whose movements are completely invisible, is someone you couldn't find even with a lantern!

"To be honest, Dean Xiao's task for me is to defeat everyone on the Shadow Ranked List." He An paused for a moment before continuing, "Including the Chief."

"So, who's next?"
