Full-Time Magister: A Hellish Start, But the Shadow King

Chapter 27: Matchmaking Cheng Xiao and Ding Yumin? Choosing Magical Tools

The girl in front of him was rather petite, a head shorter than Cheng Xiao.

At first glance, it resembles a beautiful and bright white rose.

She was pure and innocent, yet exuded a charming and graceful allure, with her hair piled high and falling to her chest.

She has a petite yet shapely figure, the kind of person who leaves a lasting impression at first glance.

"Hello, my name is Ding Yumin!"

Cheng Xiao was taken aback when he heard her self-introduction.

Ding Yumin, a victim of the mental health crisis?!

The question of why she came to find me had just crossed Cheng Xiao's mind when he instantly had the answer.

Ding Yumin was taken in by Dean Fu of Mingzhu Academy when she was a child, and Dean Xiao also cared for her a lot.

If there were any reason for her to come to him, it would probably only be these two people, while Cheng Xiao had only ever met Dean Xiao.

Ding Yumin's eyes seemed to see through everyone's doubts.

She explained with a smile on her face:

"Dean Xiao sent me to find you, saying he wanted me to take you to get the resources that belong to you."

For some reason, her words were heartwarming, and a strange feeling arose in my mind that I could unconditionally trust this beautiful girl in front of me.

Cheng Xiao knew about the mental abilities, and his mental strength was also quite strong, allowing him to effectively control his emotions and thoughts.

"Resources from the Beast Fighting Tournament?" Cheng Xiao nodded.

"Then I'll trouble you to lead the way, senior."

"How did you know I was your senior?" Ding Yumin asked with a smile.

"I didn't see the senior among the people I defeated in the Beast Fighting Tournament, and if she were a freshman, I would definitely remember her as someone as memorable as her," Cheng Xiao said.

Hearing this, the students who came to watch the drama unfold in the corridor were so angry they almost vomited blood.

The fact that none of those defeated were seen is undoubtedly a sharp blade, piercing deeply into the hearts of all the new students.

How could such cold words come from a mouth with a temperature of 37 degrees Celsius?

"Is this a compliment?"

"Yes, senior does have a unique charm."

"."

Watching the two leave, chatting and laughing, broke countless hearts.

Ding Yumin is widely recognized as the number one goddess of the Fire Academy on the main campus!

She is the object of affection for countless students at the main campus.

Cheng Xiao has only been enrolled for a few days, yet he's already chatting with someone, and it was Ding Yumin who took the initiative to come to his door.

Putting aside Ding Yumin, there was also the healing-type younger sister from the previous beast fighting competition, and the big-breasted rabbit Ai Tutu.

Even Mu Nujiao, the universally acknowledged goddess among the freshmen, was all circling around Cheng Xiao!

With power as strong as a demon and surrounded by so many goddesses, it's simply killing you and destroying your spirit.

..............................

"Your Majesty, this girl's mental strength is extraordinary." Bell's voice echoed in his mind.

"Oh? You can tell?" Cheng Xiao asked curiously.

"I can sense something; she seems to be suppressing her mental power to prevent the surrounding things from being affected by her powerful mental energy. She's dangerous," Bell said.

"This power is called the Calamity Soul Body. Her Calamity Soul Body belongs to the Mind-Based type. Because of the Calamity Soul Body, she possessed an uncontrollable soul-level power from the moment she awakened," Cheng Xiao explained.

"Soul-level power requires a high level of cultivation to fully control, which is why she has been suppressing her mental power."

"If it is not suppressed, the soul-level power that has been afflicted by mental calamity can easily erupt and cause damage to the surrounding area."

"Your Majesty's knowledge is profound; I am ashamed of my own inferiority," Bell flattered.

"."

Cheng Xiao smiled helplessly, already used to Bell's occasional flattery.

Soon, Ding Yumin led Cheng Xiao to the top floor of the library at Mingzhu Academy.

The top floor is not open to everyone; even Ding Yumin is not qualified to go up there.

After taking Cheng Xiao to the top floor, Ding Yumin left.

Dean Xiao was also waiting there, and upon seeing Cheng Xiao, he smiled warmly.

"It seems you two get along very well."

"It's alright, Senior Ding is quite kind," Cheng Xiao said.

"Have you considered taking this a step further?" Dean Xiao asked, his smile undiminished.

Cheng Xiao remained silent, looking at Dean Xiao with a strange expression.

Let me tell you her story.

Dean Xiao ignored Cheng Xiao's strange look and, as they walked, briefly recounted Ding Yumin's experiences to Cheng Xiao.

After listening, Cheng Xiao didn't feel much emotional fluctuation, because he already knew about Ding Yumin, this tragic girl.

"Senior Ding is indeed very pitiful," Cheng Xiao asked, feigning ignorance.

"So, you mean you're trying to set me up with her?"

"Hehe, I'm an old man, and I've seen a lot. I can see what makes you special," Dean Xiao chuckled.

The original text can be found at 6#9@book/bar!

"I won't delve into that, and I won't force you to talk about your relationship with Ding Yumin. I just think you two have common topics and can chat more."

"If possible, please help her out for me and Lao Fu when necessary. She found something in you that she has never found in anyone else."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiao roughly understood what Dean Xiao meant.

It's probably because his necromancy abilities were so extraordinary that Dean Xiao noticed them and treated him as a victim like Ding Yumin.

Even if they weren't victims of a disaster, they could still be labeled as outcasts by certain people, along with Ding Yumin.

"If she needs me, I will help her within my capabilities," Cheng Xiao said.

Dean Xiao smiled.

This answer is sufficient; feelings need to be cultivated gradually.

The saying goes, "familiarity breeds fondness." Cheng Xiao might find it abrupt now, but who knows what will happen in the future.

The two entered a private meeting room.

Dean Xiao got down to business:

"The resources you have access to are public resources distributed to countless students."

"Public resources belong to the school, and we will convert them into the resources you need."

Cheng Xiao nodded; this was within his expectations and acceptable.

"According to the rules we agreed to, you defeated three thousand people, which will give you the resources of fourteen departments." Dean Xiao waved his hand casually.

Suddenly, several miniature versions of magical artifacts appeared on the conference table.

Dean Xiao smiled and said:

"These are treasures I acquired when I was young and adventuring. They have nothing to do with the academy. You can choose one."

Cheng Xiao was stunned for a while before she reacted.

The magical artifacts and tools on the table are all Soul-level items worth hundreds of millions!

Dean Xiao is being too generous, isn't he? Or is this some kind of special treatment for him?

Cheng Xiao didn't think much of it. Since Dean Xiao was willing to take it out, he had no reason to be embarrassed to accept it.

After a quick glance, Cheng Xiao immediately took a liking to a short sword that looked like a demon-slaying tool.

The short sword is entirely black and gold in color, with a very unique feel; it's unclear what material it's made of.

Seeing this, Dean Xiao explained:

"This is a demon-slaying tool forged from a commander-level dark creature. It is unnamed and was used by me when I was carrying out assassination missions."

"Assassination?" Cheng Xiao suppressed a laugh.

No wonder Dean Xiao is so open-minded; he probably did all sorts of things when he was young.

"Is it forged from the strange bones of dark creatures?" Cheng Xiao asked curiously, stroking the short sword.

"No, this short sword belongs to that dark creature."

"???"
