Full-Time Magister: Summoning Agumon at the Start

Chapter 332 Treasure Hunt

"By the way, if the Divine Seal Praise for first place is so powerful, what's the use of the Void Altar for second place?" Mo Fan asked curiously. "You've already secured first place, why bother with the reward for second place?" Lin Chen teased.

"I need to learn more about it, otherwise I'll be mistaken for an illiterate person when I go out," Mo Fan chuckled.

"So you do know you're illiterate?" Jiang Yu shook his head and explained the Void Altar to Mo Fan: "The elemental concentration in the Void Altar is extremely high. Cultivation speed there can be increased many times over. It can even allow a high-level mage to advance a small portion of their cultivation level..."

It can even enable high-level mages to successfully break through and become super-level mages.

"Wow, this is amazing! For a mage like me with multiple elemental types, this is an unimaginable treasure trove. Now I want both of them, it's really troublesome," Mo Fan said with some worry.

"You're lucky to get one, you want two? Are you out of your mind?!" Zuji said, having just understood Mo Fan's words. He was originally scheduled to play against Spain, but Mo Fan replaced him, which made him very unhappy.

"You have to have dreams, what if they come true! Besides, if you don't even dare to dream about it, what's the difference between you and a salted fish? Why bother participating in the university competition? Go home and sleep." Mo Fan replied without any politeness.

Just as Zu Jiming and Mo Fan were about to start arguing again, Zhao Manyan's words drew Mo Fan's attention back to them.

"Those things are still a bit far off for us. I'm wondering if there will be a treasure hunt this year. That's a tangible benefit," Zhao Manyan said excitedly.

"What is this 'treasure hunt'? Why do you guys always know things I've never even heard of?" Mo Fan scratched his head and asked awkwardly.

"Mo Fan, how come you don't know anything about a university competition? I suspect you transmigrated and possessed the original Mo Fan." Jiang Yu was speechless. Mo Fan was almost a four-star hunter master, how come he had no common sense at all?

"Wow, how did you know I traveled from another time? You finally figured it out!" Mo Fan exclaimed in surprise.

Mu Ningxue pressed her forehead, feeling inexplicably embarrassed. This guy had always been so unreliable since he was a child. God knows why she liked playing with him so much when she was a kid.

"Get lost, if we're talking about transmigrators, I think Lin Chen is the real one. He's incredibly strong and is clearly the protagonist of this world," Jiang Shaoxu said, deliberately praising him.

But as soon as she finished speaking, most of the people present turned their attention to Lin Chen. They all seemed to think,

Lin Chen seems to really fit the template of protagonists who transmigrate from novels.

Lin Chen felt everyone's gaze, nodded seriously, and admitted, "I really did come from another time."

However, once Lin Chen admitted it, everyone's attention shifted away from that and returned to the treasure hunt.

The treasure hunt takes place after the first round of eliminations. It contains resources prepared by various countries and forces around the world for the World University Tournament. It is a huge treasure trove. How much each country can get depends on the ability of its students.

Moreover, if the resources from the previous competition cannot be fully taken away in the treasure hunt, they will accumulate in the next competition. It is not uncommon for powerful students to win treasures worth tens or even billions in the treasure hunt.

"No wonder you all risked your lives to come to this Venice Water City Grand Prix, there's such an exciting competition!" Mo Fan suddenly realized.

Mo Fan wasn't initially that enthusiastic about the competition between world academies, but after learning about the rewards for the top three and the second round of the treasure hunt, his blood was pumping!

With him and Lin Chen working together, snatching those little karaomis would be a piece of cake.

"Every treasure hunt is different, I wonder what interesting rules will be in store this time." Han Ji smiled, he had naturally noticed Mo Fan's excited expression.

After the brief meeting ended, Lin Chen was about to return to his room when Mo Fan stopped him.

"Lin Chen, I need to discuss something with you. The treasure hunt is coming up soon, and I'd like to buy some resources to strengthen my Swift Star Wolf and see if I can get it to the Commander level as well," Mo Fan said awkwardly.

Not long after Mo Fan paid off Lin Chen's debt, and since his Swift Star Wolf was just a summoned creature, many people advised him not to invest resources in it. If Lin Chen hadn't also been raising a summoned beast, Mo Fan would have been too embarrassed to say so.

"Okay, but you'll have to pay me back after the treasure hunt. I believe you should be able to collect enough treasures in the treasure hunt."

Lin Chen did not refuse.

Lin Chen quite admired the Swift Star Wolf. For a servant-level summoned beast to grow all the way to the monarch level was practically a heroic legend of the wolf clan, one that would be remembered for generations.

Just as Mo Fan was about to pull Lin Chen to go shopping, Lin Chen specifically reminded him, "Mo Fan, you'd better consult Jiang Yu or Pang Lai about this. Pang Lai is, after all, the strongest summoning mage in China. Advancing is a big deal, riskier than gambling. One wrong move and you're back to square one!"

"Lin Chen, you're quite experienced in this area, so I can just ask you, right?" Mo Fan said.

Although Pang Lai is strong, the contracted beasts and summoned beasts he raises already have very strong bloodlines. Lin Chen's summoned beasts, like his own Swift Star Wolf, also evolved from the lowest level. Therefore, there should be more meaning in communication between the two.

Lin Chen glanced at the expression on Mo Fan's face and understood what Mo Fan meant. He then spoke again, "My summoning system is different from yours, so it's not a reliable reference."

"Alright then." Mo Fan nodded.

When Mo Fan and Lin Chen arrived at Jiang Yu's room, Pang Lai was preparing to give Jiang Yu some special treatment.

"Why are you two here? I thought you were going into seclusion to cultivate," Jiang Yu said curiously.

Mo Fan then explained his purpose for coming.

Chief Pang Lai also told Mo Fan that if he wanted to upgrade his summoned beasts to the commander level, his summoning skills first had to reach the level of a high-level mage.

After learning this news, Mo Fan understood why Lin Chen had said that the two people's situations were different.

Lin Chen, with his special innate talent, can directly transcend cultivation limitations, while Mo Fan clearly does not possess this ability.

Having no other choice, Mo Fan had to borrow another small amount of money from Lin Chen to buy a Star River Vein in order to break through his cultivation level.

Of course, to avoid Lin Chen and Mo Fan making a wasted trip, Chief Pang Lai first led Lin Chen and Mo Fan to purchase the items needed for the Swift Star Wolf's upgrade.
