Full-Time Magister: Summoning Eight Demons at the Start.

Chapter 14 Annual Performance Appraisal

……

Annual performance review in progress.

Under the blazing sun, school leaders stood on the podium, delivering impassioned speeches, while below stood thousands of energetic new students from Tianlan Magic High School.

At the end of the speech, Mu Ningxue, the eldest daughter of the Mu family and a special guest of this magic assessment, demonstrated the power of her ice magic to everyone.

Upon seeing this, the students below the stage exclaimed in admiration.

"What are you planning to do later?" Tang Yue walked to the back of the group, next to Lü Cheng.

Over the past few months, she has become fairly certain that the thing on Lü Cheng's body is definitely not some kind of undead!

Because after Lü Cheng came into contact with and experienced her fire-type nebula, he successfully activated a basic fire-type spell last month!

Moreover, she also had Lü Cheng release the so-called spirit and had contact with it several times.

Now, she was almost certain that the so-called spirit was another personality of Lü Cheng!

A personality that has successfully mastered Lü Cheng's special fire-type talent!

However, Lü Cheng's fire-type talent doesn't seem to be a natural soul seed; it appears to be a special talent that has never been seen before.

Therefore, to avoid danger, she instructed Lü Cheng not to use his fire magic for the time being.

But this also brings a new problem: Lü Cheng's dimensional magic seems to have never been successfully activated.

"What? What should we do?" Lu Cheng yawned, looking like he hadn't woken up properly and was very tired.

"You can't use your fire yet," Tang Yue whispered a reminder.

Lu Cheng's fire-type talent is too unique, and his split personality is a sensitive issue. If it were to be exploited by someone with ulterior motives, it would be too dangerous.

"What fire? I'm a summoner." Lu Cheng said seriously.

Tang Yue was stunned. "You succeeded?"

Despite having the talent for One Thought Star Track and a thorough understanding of dimensional summoning, Lü Cheng was unable to successfully activate dimensional summoning magic.

Regarding this, she guessed that Lü Cheng's fire-type talent was too powerful, suppressing his summoning stardust and causing the dimensional summoning to fail to activate successfully for a long time.

"Of course," Lü Cheng shrugged.

During this time, he had been collecting materials related to the sub-dragon species. After all, the aura of the evil dragons in hell was completely different from that of the dragons in this world, so he couldn't release it directly.

To solve this minor problem, the Holy Lord asked him to find some materials from the dragons of this world, such as scales and blood, to mask and simulate the aura of an evil dragon.

He got this thing from the black market; it cost him several million!

Just last night, the Holy Lord successfully selected one for him: his former mount, a gigantic Western dragon!

Of course, just like other demons, if a dragon wants to leave hell, it needs to form a contract with him, and its strength will be somewhat limited.

According to the Holy Lord, his current dragon mount is probably a warrior-level dragon demon in this world.

"What did you summon?" Tang Yue asked curiously.

The stronger a magician's mental power, the stronger the summoned beasts they can contract.

Lu Cheng's mental strength is terrifying!

"You'll see in a bit. By the way, don't be scared," Lu Cheng reminded him.

A dragon demon at the Warrior level, especially one with sub-dragon blood, is already capable of going toe-to-toe with many commander-level demons. Tang Yue, currently only a mid-level mage, is practically throwing herself against a Warrior-level dragon demon.

"Then I'll wait and see," Tang Yue said with a smile.

"..."

On the platform, Mu Ningxue, who had just finished casting her magic, saw Lü Cheng chatting and laughing with Tang Yue at the back of the group, and her ever-present expression became somewhat unnatural.

Mu Zhuoyun, who was standing nearby, also noticed this. "Ning Xue, how about..."

"No need." Mu Ningxue stepped down from the podium.

Seeing this, Mu Zhuoyun shook his head and said no more.

"The annual performance review is now officially underway!"

At the principal's command, all the teachers and students in the school began to move, dividing into several squares to conduct tests at various locations on the playground.

The assessment process is simple: stand on the testing platform, place your hand on the star-sensing stone under the supervision of several examiners, concentrate your mind and enter a meditative state, and judge the intensity of the stardust, that is, the level of cultivation, by the light emitted by the star-sensing stone.

Each person has three chances, and the best result will be the final score.

The test was random, and Lü Cheng was unlucky; he drew the last one.

"Can I cut in line?" Lü Cheng yawned.

He was thinking of finishing the test as soon as possible and going back to sleep.

He didn't sleep a wink last night while working on the dragon mount.

After all, this thing is not only a dragon, but also a demon, and a vicious dragon that has been imprisoned in Hell for thousands of years. It has almost no brain left. Although it had been beaten up by the Holy Lord before leaving Hell and had become much more obedient, it still needs to be tamed by him.

With the help of the Holy Lord, using the demonic energy of fire and the Holy Lord's true dragon pressure, the sub-dragon was made to recognize its own status. The whole process took almost all night!

His basement was completely ransacked!

The magic of the talismans has been accumulating and storing recently. This is Shendu's new attempt to activate the magic of the talismans. In order to release the magic of the Rat Talisman on the Lope statue after a while, he temporarily stopped the magic of other talismans and forcibly activated one.

Therefore, he could neither use the Horse Talisman to eliminate his fatigue nor obtain the Dog Talisman's infinite vitality.

He was exhausted after a night of intense work, and now he could barely keep his eyes open.

"Cutting in line is not allowed. The assessment is handled by the Magic Association, and I can't interfere." Tang Yue walked up to Lü Cheng.

"If you're really sleepy, lean on me and rest for a bit."

"Oh, thank you." Lu Cheng didn't stand on ceremony. He put his head on Tang Yue's shoulder, closed his eyes, and in less than ten seconds, he entered a state of even breathing and dormancy.

"This..." Tang Yue was stunned.

What kind of skill is that? Falling asleep while standing up?

Wait, did you go thieving last night?

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

……

The test is proceeding normally.

Before long, half of the students in Class 8 had passed.

The best result so far is Zhang Xiaohou, with 3A+.

"Next, Mu Bai!"

Hearing the commotion from Class 8, Mu He chimed in at the opportune moment, drawing Mu Zhuoyun over, wanting to give Mu Bai a chance to shine.

Mu Bai did not disappoint him, successfully obtaining the school's highest evaluation, 3S, and also achieving a B grade in release.

However, S, B.

A strange combination.

"Brother, what do you think?" Mu He asked expectantly.

If Mu Bai can gain Mu Zhuoyun's favor, he will be able to obtain more family resources!

The most important thing for a mage's training is not talent, but resources!

With enough resources, even without talent, one can reach great heights!

Without the infusion of resources, no matter how talented you are, you will only fade into obscurity!

"Not bad." Mu Zhuoyun simply said two words.

In his eyes, only Mu Ningxue was truly important. Although Mu Bai was excellent, he was only outstanding in this small city of Bocheng. Outside of Bocheng, he was nothing special.

"Next up, Mo Fan!"

……

Having completed the test, Mu Bai stepped down amidst the envious and amazed gazes of the crowd.

Just as he was about to show off to Lü Cheng, he saw a scene that left him dumbfounded.

Lu Cheng was seen resting his head on Tang Yue's shoulder, fast asleep!

He wasn't mistaken!

This guy is really sleeping!

Sleeping while standing is also one of Lü Cheng's special abilities. In fact, Lü Cheng can even sleep with his eyes open, pretending to be listening attentively!

He's seen it all before!

Also watching Lü Cheng was another figure standing not far away beside Mu Zhuoyun.

"Ning Xue?"

Sensing the sudden chill emanating from Mu Ningxue, Mu Zhuoyun followed his daughter's gaze.

"..."

Excellent! That's the kind of kid I'm talking about!

Sleeping in this kind of situation?!

No way! It's one thing for you to be sleeping, but what's with leaning on the female teacher's shoulder?

"Ahem!" Mu Zhuoyun coughed twice, interrupting the chill that Mu Ningxue was releasing.

"Ning Xue, you..."

Mu Ningxue took a deep breath. "It's okay, it's just too hot. I'm just cooling off!"

"..." Mu Zhuoyun.
