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

Chapter 47: A clean sheet! Just the tip of the iceberg?

Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!

The massive body of the Ghostly Wolf was sent flying dozens of meters away by a single punch.

Lu Zhenghe, riding on the wolf, rolled several times before stopping.

Lu Zhenghe looked at Cheng Xiao with a look of shock and disbelief.

Was that a large, upright ant?!

He sensed it the moment that undead made its move; it was also a War General, and a Great War General at that!

With just one punch, the Ghostly Wolf lost its fighting ability.

"A second great general?!" Mu Ningxue couldn't help but glance in Cheng Xiao's direction.

Legion Commander Bell let out a strange "ya ya" sound, which seemed to be accompanied by some kind of mental attack.

If it were just a powerful general, she could barely hold it back.

But how will the Imperial Capital Academy contend with this second major general?

Relying on the Ghostly Pattern Wolf that was crippled by a single punch?

Or is it Xiaofeng and Mingcong, who have difficulty even handling ten servants at the advanced stage?

Mu Ningxue, as the pride of the Imperial Capital Academy, is almost invincible among those of the same level.

Although she usually appears aloof and indifferent, it's impossible to say that she isn't competitive and proud.

Since she has already personally led the team to take action, even if they lose, it will be a defeat that is evenly matched.

Instead of this situation where they are almost completely crushed and have no chance of winning!

The one who crushed her was Cheng Xiao, whom she had heard about failing to awaken years ago!

The huge sense of loss was hard for Mu Ningxue to accept for a while.

"A second Grand General-level undead! Pearl Academy's cheat code is a bit too much, isn't it? They have absolutely no chance of winning!"

"I reckon even if all six of our academies plus the Imperial Capital Academy were combined, we wouldn't be a match for that captain from Pearl Academy. What kind of monster is that?"

"You really can't blame the Imperial Academy for being bad; they have a genius ice mage and a warrior-level contracted beast. If it were us, we would probably lose even faster."

"It's still a one-man show, where did this amazing player come from? They're on a completely different level from us!"

"."

Cheng Xiao's performance shocked the six universities in the spectator stands.

It's still one person against one team, and it's still the familiar crushing victory!

Whether it was Cheng Xiao's spatial attacks in the first round or his necromancy attacks in the second round, basically no one could stop him.

And these two things just happen to happen to appear in one person.

At Mingzhu Academy, Luo Song couldn't help but say:

"That ant has become stronger."

As the first person to be dominated by Bell's fear, Rosson felt this deeply.

"Brother Cheng is always invincible on his own, we're all a bit redundant," Mo Fan said helplessly.

His teammates nodded in agreement.

Everyone witnessed Cheng Xiao defeating a thousand mid-level mages from the entire Qing Campus all by himself. Well, that includes the victims as well.

Now, when we look back at Cheng Xiao's abuse of the Imperial Capital Academy, it all seems perfectly normal.

"Cheng Xiao has set off; it seems he's going to end the match."

"It should have been done a long time ago. After all, the opponent is an academy in the capital. Letting the capital's academy stand on the stage a little longer is just to give them some face."

"As the captain said, friendship comes first, competition second. This is perfectly embodying that now!"

"."

On the field.

Cheng Xiao slowly stepped forward, walked to the center of the arena, and confirmed that he was within his casting range.

"It's time to end this."

As the words fell, a silver light appeared in those deep, dark eyes.

Spatial rhythm—compression!

It was like a powerful gravitational field, and everything except the shadow soldiers was affected by the immense pressure.

The ice lock shattered, the ice vines dissipated, and the rock barrier collapsed. The gravitational compression of this spatial force was no less destructive than that of a general-level destructive force!

If the two legion commanders displayed the strength of generals, they pushed the Imperial Capital Academy to the brink of despair.

The spatial power that Cheng Xiao ultimately displayed was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

"We concede!" Mu Ningxue said, her voice filled with resentment, knowing she was no match for them.

The captain's speech naturally signifies the end of the match!

"Mingzhu Academy has won two consecutive matches and is the winner of this competition!" the referee announced.

Strangely, there was no celebratory cheer from the Pearl Camp, which had achieved a clean sweep against the Imperial Academy.

The six universities that were observing were not surprised by this result.

There was only awe and shock towards Cheng Xiao.

"Is this all the strength you have?"

Mu Ningxue looked at Cheng Xiao, her beautiful, icy eyes filled with complex emotions and resentment.

"I guess so," Cheng Xiao said with a smile.

Mu Ningxue parted her red lips slightly, unsure of what to say.

Judging from the reaction at Mingzhu Academy, Mu Ningxue had a vague feeling that Cheng Xiao had not yet used his full strength.

Hearing Cheng Xiao's answer, Mu Ningxue became even more certain of her guess.

The strength that Cheng Xiao has shown so far may only be the tip of the iceberg.

But this tip of the iceberg could utterly humiliate her, the pride of the capital's prestigious academy!

The huge sense of disparity was mixed with childhood emotions.

Mu Ningxue felt both happy for Cheng Xiao and bitter about her own defeat.

Mu Ningxue hesitated for a moment, then smiled with relief:

Congratulations on your successful transformation!

"And you? Are you still bound by shackles?" Cheng Xiao asked in return.

Mu Ningxue was taken aback; she naturally knew what the 'shackles' Cheng Xiao was referring to were.

She simply smiled helplessly and did not respond.

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

After the match, Cheng Xiao stepped off the stage, and his teammates reacted with unusual calm.

Everyone was complaining that it was going too far and asking if they could at least be allowed to play on it.

Despite being constantly suppressed by the Imperial Academy in the capital, these students felt no psychological pressure because of Cheng Xiao's presence.

Teacher Gu Han had concerns:

"Cheng Xiao is too invincible. Isn't that a bit much? These brats don't seem to be feeling any pressure at all."

However, it doesn't really matter, since they are all outstanding students from their own university.

Cheng Xiao selectively ignored the flattery of young admirers like Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan, and instead found Mu Nu and asked with a charming smile:

"How did you perform?"

Mu Nujiao seemed a little awkward and asked in a low voice:

"Why are you asking me this specifically?"

"What do you think?" Cheng Xiao countered.

"Very, very handsome!"

Mu Nujiao is like a shy little girl; her face turns bright red if the person she secretly admires makes even the slightest ambiguous move towards her.

Despite having already done "that" with Cheng Xiao, Mu Nujiao would still blush and blush easily, just like before.

Therefore, in everything between the two, Cheng Xiao always took the initiative.

"Nothing to say?" Cheng Xiao deliberately leaned closer and asked with a smile.

Looking into those deep, dark eyes, Mu Nujiao's face inexplicably flushed.

Okay, okay. Mu Nujiao's breathing became heavier, her voice barely audible.

"Okay, at least we should wait until tonight, right?"

"This is what I want to see." Cheng Xiao gently kissed her cheek.

"Were you thinking about something unpleasant just now?"

Mu Nujiao's face turned even redder:

"No, no, I didn't!"

She felt a sense of relief, but also a little disappointed.
