Full-Time Magister: You're selling soul beasts in Shanghai?

Chapter 67 Nomination Contest, Mu Nujiao Falls for Him

For the next period of time, Xu Beichen spent his time teaching Jiang Feng cooking skills and cultivating his spatial abilities.

In addition, Xu Beichen also purchased a batch of fire-attribute resources, which were mainly prepared for Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng has not yet reached the monarch level, and her flames are not as high quality as Xiao Yan Ji's Calamity Flame.

However, since she is Yan Ji, it is not difficult to upgrade her to the monarch level as long as the fire attribute resources are sufficient.

Originally, Xu Beichen wanted Xue Di to learn cooking skills as well, but Xue Di's icy power was too strong. Even his Azure Netherfire couldn't withstand it, let alone ordinary fire.

Snow Empress's primary element is ice; she is a natural ice type, and a soul-level ice type at that. She should be able to improve upon reaching a certain level of cultivation.

However, three cooks are enough for now. Xu Beichen plans to open another restaurant. With Xue Di around, there's no need to worry about the safety of the new restaurant.

Time flies, and Pearl Academy has begun a new nomination competition, with the winning student receiving a vote.

In the evening, at the restaurant.

"It's just a nomination competition, yet so many high-level students have signed up. How are we mid-level students supposed to compete with them? It's all that bastard Xu Beichen's fault."

"Sister Mu, do you think it's his fault?" Ai Tutu complained softly.

Due to the remarkable effects of soul beast meat, many students at Mingzhu Academy have benefited greatly.

In particular, some scions of aristocratic families even touched the threshold of the high-level realm because of this, and then broke through to the high-level realm with the help of a Star River Vein!

Originally, the nomination competition was mostly a contest between mid-level students, since the high-level students had already graduated.

But this year it was completely different, with several high-level students participating, such as Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, and Dongfang Lie.

"How can you blame this on me?"

Xu Beichen was slightly speechless, and said irritably, "I'm improving the overall strength of the National Team, do you understand?"

"Hmph, I don't care about any of that. Anyway, if Sister Mu doesn't get selected, it's all your fault."

Ai Tutu crossed her arms over her chest and said unreasonably.

"TuTu!!"

Mu Nujiao immediately tugged at Ai Tutu's clothes and scolded her with a hint of embarrassment and annoyance.

She couldn't blame anyone else for not breaking through to the higher level; she could only blame herself for being unambitious.

The Mu family also gave Mu Nujiao a piece of the Star River Vein, but she failed to break through.

In fact, Mu Nujiao was under a lot of pressure because she discovered that her younger sister, Mu Nuxin, had caught up with her!

She had cultivated for more than a year longer than Mu Nuxin, yet their cultivation levels were now almost the same. This huge difference put considerable psychological pressure on her.

"Hmph!" Ai Tutu huffed angrily.

"Uh-huh."

Xu Beichen didn't know what to say. Compared to Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan, Mu Nujiao came to the restaurant far too infrequently.

Compared to other scions of aristocratic families like Dongfang Lie, Mu Nujiao had cultivated for a year less.

"Hey, I just remembered, your name isn't on the nomination list, Brother Xu. Aren't you planning to participate?"

Zhao Manyan suddenly spoke up and asked Xu Beichen.

"Aren't you going to participate in the World University Competition?" Mu Nujiao looked at Xu Beichen with equal curiosity.

"I don't need this vote; I've already decided on the outcome," Xu Beichen said calmly.

"It's already been decided?"

Zhao Manyan was immediately stunned. Even the Zhao family didn't have this ability. Brother Xu was too awesome!

If he knew that Xu Beichen was already a super-level mage, then he wouldn't find it strange.

"It's perfectly normal that Brother Xu was chosen beforehand; there's absolutely no one stronger than Brother Xu in any domestic university," Mo Fan said.

"Hehe~"

Xu Beichen didn't want to say anything more, secretly calculating what changes this year's National Team members would undergo.

Ai Jiangtu, Nan Jue, Jiang Yu, Jiang Shaoxu, and Nan Rongni are basically a done deal.

Zu Jiming and Mu Tingying come from aristocratic families. Although their combat strength is weak, they will most likely be selected.

Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan are both high-level mages, and both have powerful backers, so their spots shouldn't be a problem.

If I include myself, there are now ten official members.

But we can't calculate it that way, since I might not participate in the training, and there might be an extra official member spot.

So far, it's highly likely that this spot will go to Dongfang Lie.

However, Dongfang Lie and Xu Beichen did not have much of a relationship. Relatively speaking, Xu Beichen would prefer that Mu Nujiao get the official spot.

As night fell, Dean Xiao, Mo Fan, and the others left one after another, leaving only Mu Nujiao and Ai Tutu behind.

"Tomorrow is the nomination competition, so I'll treat you to a dish," Xu Beichen said to Mu Nujiao.

After saying that, Xu Beichen went into the kitchen, stir-fried a dish with a small piece of meat from a 30,000-year-old soul beast, and then served it to Mu Nujiao.

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

"this."

When Mu Nujiao saw the hot dish in front of her, she was at a loss for what to do. She could tell that the dish was quite expensive.

"Sister Mu, consider this a small compensation from him to you," Ai Tutu urged.

Normally, Ai Tutu would definitely fight with Mu Nujiao for it, but now she knows very well that Sister Mu needs it more than she does.

Xu Beichen rolled his eyes but didn't say anything more. Anyway, Mu Nuxin had helped him earn a lot of points, so he figured he might as well give them to the two sisters.

"Sister Mu, don't overthink it. At worst, you can repay me with your body."

Seeing that Mu Nujiao had not made a move, Ai Tutu said something surprising.

Mu Nujiao glared at Ai Tutu. How could she possibly calm down now that you've said that?

Suppressing her restless heart, Mu Nujiao hesitated for a moment before starting to eat.

Before long, Mu Nujiao finished the entire dish and then casually found a place to sit cross-legged and begin her cultivation.

Half an hour later, Mu Nujiao opened her eyes, a hint of joy in her beautiful eyes, clearly indicating that she had successfully broken through.

"Thanks."

Mu Nujiao hugged Xu Beichen tightly, bursting into tears of joy, while Ai Tutu, standing to the side like a third wheel, stared wide-eyed.

Is Sister Mu about to be taken away?

Xu Beichen looked down at the beautiful Mu Nujiao in his arms, smiled faintly, and felt a little disappointed.

If Ai Tutu wasn't here, could he have taken advantage of the situation?

Xu Beichen really liked the two beauties from the Mu family.

If he had to choose between the two, he preferred Mu Nuxin, because she had the mischievousness of a young girl, the obedience of a maid, and the role of a personal secretary.

But only children make choices, and Xu Beichen naturally wanted them all.

"Don't worry about the votes. As long as you get one vote in this nomination competition, I can get you two more."

As a businessman, Xu Beichen had accumulated a lot of connections, so getting votes wasn't difficult for him; he could get more than two from the Magic Palace alone.

Mu Nujiao's beautiful eyes revealed a hint of shyness, dependence, and deep affection; she was completely captivated.
