Full-Time Magister: The Jade Serpent's Three-Flower Pupil Captures Apas

Chapter 18 First Encounter with Mu Ningxue: I am... a High-Level Mage!

After leaving the area behind Tianlan Magic High School, Song Zhong quickly returned to the small building.

"Snap!"

He took out his key, opened the door, and Song Zhong pushed the door open and entered.

A fragrant breeze wafted by; who else could it be but the little snake woman, Apas?

"Hoo hoo~~"

Apas leaned close to Song Zhong's body, her small, delicate nose gently sniffing his neck and body, revealing two sharp little snake fangs.

"Apas, what's wrong with you?" Song Zhong asked, puzzled.

"Hmph~ I didn't expect that you, big brother, didn't steal any wild women." Apas said coquettishly.

"Am I that kind of person? Apas, I've already told you you're my first wife," Song Zhong said with a smile.

"That's more like it, big brother. I bought some new clothes online today, I'll wear them for you to see later~"

Apas put her little hands behind her back, tilted her head slightly, and said with a charming smile.

"I knew my Apas was the best."

Song Zhong also hugged the little snake girl's slender waist, which could be encircled by one hand, and spun her around a few times.

The 1.85-meter-tall Song Zhong paired with the 1.65-meter-tall Apas creates a rather adorable height difference.

Moonlight streamed through the curtains, scattering a silvery glow across the floor.

The wind chimes hanging in the living room swayed in the wind, echoing with a series of crisp and melodious sounds.

Time flies, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

In the early morning, a ray of sunlight gently falls on the windowsill.

Song Zhong got up early, washed up, and then rode the blue-eyed white dragon toward the Mu family manor.

Today is the day of Mo Fan's duel with Yu Ang, and almost all the prominent figures in Bo City have been invited to attend the ceremony.

Song Zhong originally didn't want to go to the appointment. Why bother watching two novice mages fight each other? He'd rather spend more time with Xin Xia and interact with the little snake girl.

But then I thought, Mu Ningxue seems to be here too, so I might as well observe whether she is qualified to become my female disciple.

Song Zhong only had three requirements for his female apprentices: they had to be beautiful and capable, and obedient and well-behaved.

As for talent and resources, well, both can be acquired and invested in later. Besides, Song Zhong also has the panel cheat of the Heavens, so it's a piece of cake.

It's also worth mentioning that Song Zhong's abilities have reached a new level.

The Summoning system has already broken through to the advanced level 2, and the Fire system is also eager to break through, with the breakthrough time expected in the next few days.

He has mastered the advanced level one of the spatial system, the advanced level one of the sound system, and the mid-level of the plant system. His spiritual power has reached the early stage of the sixth realm.

Both fire and space-based systems can achieve constellation formation with a single thought, a significant upgrade.

At 18 years old, Song Zhong is a first-year high school student in four major disciplines and a middle school student in one major discipline. With a fire-type soul seed with six times the domain strength, he is more than qualified to be a tutor at Mingzhu Academy.

"Whew! Whiff! Whiff! Whiff!!"

A pair of enormous, forty-meter-long, silver-white dragon wings flapped vigorously, riding the gale, and the blue-eyed white dragon carried Song Zhong to land in the manor.

The weather was sunny and bright.

Guests flocked to the Mu Family Manor, and the appearance of the Warrior-level dragon immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"That's Lord Song Zhong, the one who possesses a dragon-like contracted beast?!"

"Youth is an advantage; this person has the potential for high rank."

"."

The well-dressed guests were all talking amongst themselves, their expressions showing surprise at Song Zhong's age and cultivation.

"Hahaha, Mr. Song Zhong, it is my honor that you have graced us with your presence at the Mu family banquet today. Please come this way."

With a joyful expression, Mu Zhuoyun strode over, followed by a stunningly beautiful, aloof young woman.

Ice Beauty - Mu Ningxue.

A snow-white, high-waisted, form-fitting dress accentuated her stunning figure, highlighting her full, firm curves, long, beautiful legs, and her exceptionally gorgeous, snow-silver, center-parted hair.

My love for white-haired girls is burning fiercely!

"Mr. Mu, it's an honor to meet you," Song Zhong said politely.

"Lord Song Zhong, do you have a preferred magic university to choose from?" Mu Zhuoyun asked.

"I'll most likely go to Pearl Academy to teach, applying for a position as a magic combat teacher," Song Zhong said softly.

"Is that so? What a pity. I thought His Excellency Song Zhong would choose to study at a university in the capital. Wait, teach?!"

Mu Zhuoyun said with some regret, but quickly realized a word in Song Zhong's words.

"Yes, I've already broken through to the high-level fire element, just a few days ago," Song Zhong said casually.

(PS: Please don't criticize the protagonist for revealing his high-level strength, as it would affect the plot. Even if the Monarch-level Male Wolf King and Female Wolf King came, he would crush them by three minor realms. The Great Monarch-level peak-level Apas could also use the ultimate move [Heavenly Peerless Petrifying Eye] to instantly kill them. For details, please refer to Chapter 2027 of the original work - Heavenly Mark Command.)

Before he could finish speaking, Song Zhong opened his right hand.

A deep blue fire-elemental star river slowly emerged, with 343 fire-elemental stars constantly dancing around him.

"Cluster cluster cluster!!!"

Flames roared, and a brilliant blue light shone!

The high-quality concealing magic artifact that Ethan gave them could shield specific magic types, so in Mu Zhuoyun and the others' perception, Song Zhong's aura was that of someone who had just broken through only two days ago.

The banquet hall fell silent instantly, so quiet you could hear a pin drop, until someone finally spoke after a long while.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"My God, is that a fire-based galaxy?!"

"Lord Song Zhong has already broken through to the High-Level Mage realm. Such a young and outstanding talent may very well have a chance to glimpse the realm of the Supreme Mage!"

"I wonder if Your Excellency Song Zhong is looking for a lover? A mistress would be fine too."

"."

The people present were all well-traveled and knowledgeable. The deep blue fire-elemental galaxy shone for the first time, attracting the attention of everyone present.

Instantly, Song Zhong became the center of attention, igniting the entire scene!

Zhan Kong and Tang Yue both showed strange expressions. They were older than Song Zhong, but their cultivation and potential were not as strong.

An 18-year-old high-level mage, if placed in a major city like Shanghai, would attract numerous powerful families and organizations vying for him, and would definitely break through to the super-level within five years!

A super-level mage can single-handedly support a small family!

In the early stages, the value of a high-level mage is undeniable, after all, youth is an asset!

"With such cultivation as Lord Song Zhong, I, Mu, am truly honored to be worthy of your title."

Mu Zhuoyun was filled with mixed emotions, but his gaze involuntarily swept over Song Zhong and Mu Ningxue, as he secretly plotted something in his mind.

"Your Excellency Song Zhong, what is your opinion of my daughter, Mu Ningxue?" Mu Zhuoyun suddenly asked.

"Her innate spiritual seed aptitude is excellent. Judging from her aura, she must have broken through to the mid-level of the ice element a week ago," Song Zhong commented.

"Ah, how can my daughter's cultivation compare to Lord Song Zhong's? What do you think of Ning Xue's appearance?" Mu Zhuoyun coughed and said.

The onlookers were somewhat astonished. Mu Zhuoyun, that old fox, wasn't even pretending anymore; it was obvious he was planning to use a honey trap.

How despicable!

"With skin as white as ice and bones as jade, she is hard to match among her peers."

Song Zhong commented softly, then added after a pause:

"However, it seems you are bound to a high-quality magical artifact that is difficult for an ordinary mid-level mage to withstand, and you have to endure the torment of ice invasion day and night."

Song Zhong did not say this in public, but instead used his sound-based abilities to send a private message to Mu Ningxue.

"you"

Mu Ningxue was slightly taken aback. Sound magic?!

Yes, the opponent has already broken through to the high-level mage level, so it's normal for them to awaken [a billion] more elemental types.

Upon hearing this, Mu Zhuoyun's face lit up with joy. In his opinion, Song Zhong's ability to break through to the high level at such a young age meant that he must have a powerful force supporting him.

He was not content to stay in the small city of Bocheng forever. Only places like Shanghai and Beijing were the places where Mu Zhuoyun should make his mark.

If you can get on the fast track of a powerful force, you can rise to the top instantly.

"Your Excellency Song Zhong, since you and Ning Xue are the same age, I hope you can give her more guidance."

"There are still guests over there, so I won't disturb you young people any longer. My apologies."

Mu Zhuoyun gave Mu Ningxue a wink, then picked up a wine glass from a passing waiter and went to greet the other new guests.

This left the space for Song Zhong and Mu Ningxue, a man and a woman, to spend time together.
