Full-Time Mage: Starting with Gengar, selected for the National Tournament

Chapter 4 The Splendor of That One Strike

Chu Ming and Jiang Shaoxu entered the Fengming Hotel.

But to his surprise, as soon as he entered the hall, he found that several pairs of eyes were focused on him.

Why has there been so much hostility for no apparent reason?

Ok?

the other side.

The scions of prominent families in the rest area.

The expressions of confusion, envy, and jealousy in their eyes were undisguised.

And the reason for all of this.

Earlier, when Jiang Shaoxu was waiting at the hotel entrance, many people approached her, wanting to get to know her.

Those who know her identity.

He even pretended to walk by, trying to show off how great he was and arouse Jiang Shaoxu's interest.

But the result is the same.

They were rejected without hesitation.

Now, seeing Jiang Shaoxu entering the hotel arm in arm with Chu Ming, they immediately felt indignant.

At this time, among these jealous scions of noble families...

Lu Yilin of the Lu family, one of the four great families in Shanghai, is the most obvious example.

"Hehe, I heard that among the southern aristocratic families participating this time, there is a member of the Chu family who got selected through connections."

"That guy who got in through connections, you wouldn't happen to be him, would you?"

A provocative voice rang out in the hall.

Chu Ming looked at him coldly.

Some onlookers, eager for a good show, chuckled and quickly looked away, revealing the young man sitting on the leather sofa with his legs crossed to Chu Ming.

They were also jealous of Chu Ming.

However, they came mainly for the competition and did not want to reveal their strength too early.

However, it would be even better if Chu Ming and Lu Yilin could confront each other directly, or even fight, so that we could watch the spectacle and also test their strength.

"Lu Yilin, say that again?!"

Jiang Shaoxu's eyes were filled with hostility as she stared intently at Lu Yilin.

"Miss Jiang, I'm talking about some gigolo from the South, what's the rush?"

Lu Yilin smiled, slowly got up from the sofa, took out a cigarette, and casually put it in his mouth, looking at Chu Ming with what he thought was a cool demeanor.

"I'll handle it."

Chu Ming gently squeezed Jiang Shaoxu's hand, signaling her not to get agitated.

It is clear.

The other person is just jealous of me.

However, there were many members of prominent families watching from the sidelines, and they could not allow Lu Yilin to insult them and their families.

For this kind of pretentious playboy.

Chu Ming was too lazy to argue with him.

then.

next second.

Chu Ming rushed out quickly, drew Muramasa with his right hand, and the demon-slaying tool rapidly enlarged.

Swah——

A sharp, piercing sound rang out.

Lu Yilin's pupils suddenly dilated as he saw a sharp longsword appear before him.

The tip of the knife was pointed directly at his nose.

He was only a thumb's distance away.

pat!

The cigarette broke in two instantly.

Lu Yilin's forehead was covered in cold sweat.

Soon, he clearly saw that purple magical light began to flow on the blade.

"My blade is imbued with a level 3, initial stage poison essence - refinement," Chu Ming said calmly.

Lu Yilin's lips twitched, and his face was extremely ugly.

He never expected that Chu Ming would dare to make a move directly.

And the movements were so fast.

So much so that he didn't even realize it.

The most painful thing is...

The opponent's poison magic has reached level three.

If he gets touched, his next match can be declared over immediately.

At this moment, it wasn't just Lu Yilin who was shocked.

The other scions of prominent families present were also stunned and speechless.

A monk from a prominent family in the south.

They actually have such formidable strength?

The speed of that movement just now was so fast, it was as if they were wearing wind-type magical artifacts!

But they saw it very clearly.

Chu Ming was not wearing any magic shoes.

In other words, this was all achieved through exceptional physical abilities?

Besides physical fitness.

Even more terrifying.

Chu Ming's control over power seemed to have completed the depiction of star trails the instant his body moved?

……

"Come on, let's continue!"

Chu Ming smiled and pointed the Muramasa directly at the other person's head.

Lu Yilin choked up, his face flushed, but he ultimately remained silent.

Chu Ming sneered, shook his head in disbelief, put away the Muramasa, and took Jiang Shaoxu's hand as they walked towards the hotel elevator.

Ding Dong!

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

The elevator went up, the doors closed, and Chu Ming and Jiang Shaoxu disappeared from sight.

In the blink of an eye, the hall erupted in chaos.

"Holy crap, that slash...this guy's attack is way too overpowered!"

"When did such a monster emerge from the Southern Clan?"

"No, no!"

"How come I remember this guy majoring in summoning on the official list?!"

"But he just said that he has cultivated poison techniques and reached level three!"

"A dual system?"

"Perhaps she has special talent?"

"That's insane! He hasn't even used any summoning abilities yet. If we met in a competition, how many people could beat him?"

"It's hard to say. There are quite a few abnormal contestants in this competition. From what I've heard, Dongfang Ming and Dongfang Lie from the Dongfang family are both abnormal individuals with innate talents."

"The Mu family has also sent an ice-type innate spirit seed."

"Holy crap, there are so many monsters! There are only ten official nominations!"

"God help me, please don't let me run into Chu Ming, or anyone from the Dongfang or Mu families..."

The scions of prominent families in the hall were buzzing with discussion.

Lu Yilin, who had been completely ignored, had an uncertain expression. He clenched his fists, glared at the elevator, and then turned and walked out of the hotel.

……

In the hotel room.

Jiang Shaoxu leaped onto the bed and rolled around comfortably, saying excitedly, "Xiao Ming, that slash just now was so cool! Lu Yilin was so scared he didn't dare to move!"

"Stay calm."

Chu Ming opened his suitcase and hung the clothes in the closet.

"But Xiaoming, you've exposed your strength now, they'll definitely target you!"

"Whatever, target me if you want."

Chu Ming shrugged.

In fact, his true trump card was already written in his profile.

That's the summoning system I specialize in.

However, there's no need to let Gengar deal with someone like Lu Yilin.

And poison-based power.

That's his only offensive magic right now, and he can't hide it for long.

The basic Shadow skills are only useful for movement and have virtually no offensive capabilities, so there's no need to reveal them.

"As expected of my Xiaoming!"
