Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

With Gouzi not yet arrived, everyone naturally continued their respective cultivation practices.

Zhao Manyan grabbed Cao Le and grinned lewdly, "Cao Le, our journey to conquer the world is about to begin, and these girls in the team are all high-quality. Aren't you going to flirt with them?"

"Am I that kind of person?" Cao Le asked very seriously.

"Go away... If you're not like that, then I, Zhao Manyan, could be a saint." Zhao Manyan said disdainfully.

"What, you have a goal now?"

"That one is pretty good, her breasts are absolutely perfect, and just now I saw her look this way and smile at me," Zhao Manyan said happily, glancing at Jiang Shaoxu.

Cao Le glanced at Zhao Manyan, then reached out and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Brother, sometimes being too confident isn't a good thing."

"What, you don't believe me?" Zhao Manyan said with dissatisfaction.

"Do not believe."

"Wait here, I'll go get her contact information and ask her out tonight," Zhao Manyan said confidently.

With his ability to navigate the world of female students, flirting with such a vixen would be a piece of cake for him.

I'm not kidding!

Seeing Zhao Manyan walk towards Jiang Shaoxu, Cao Le thought to himself, "Flirting with a junior girl is only possible because your status gives you access to her. Flirting with a full-fledged member of the National Team? Tsk tsk..."

He couldn't bear to see Zhao Manyan make a fool of himself, so he turned and walked towards the training ground.

A few minutes later, Zhao Manyan returned to his original spot, somewhat annoyed, only to find that Cao Le was no longer there.

He was quite puzzled. After a brief chat, he realized that the seemingly sassy fox had absolutely no interest in him whatsoever...

What wealthy family's son? In the other party's eyes, he seemed to be nothing more than a spoiled brat with no real ability...

He also seemed to have a feeling that he had stepped into one of the three major pitfalls in life...

Fortunately, Zhao Manyan was easygoing and wouldn't let the rejection of one tree bother him, after all, there was still a large forest waiting for him to cut down.

Two or three days later, Mo Fan, the substitute who had been late, finally arrived in the capital.

The mentors naturally greeted Mo Fan with disapproving looks, as they felt he was courting death.

If you offend your supervisor, do you expect to have a good life from now on?

Most importantly, he's still a substitute!

"Mo Fan, you son of a bitch, you're finally here, haha..." Zhao Manyan was quite happy to see Mo Fan arrive.

He felt that with Mo Gouzi's abilities, he should have been selected. But there was no such guy among the official team members.

After the mentors mentioned there was another substitute, Zhao Manyan felt it should be Mo Fan.

Sure enough, it really was!

Even with Cao Le around, there are still people who talk nonsense.

But Cao Le is a regular player, and he's just a substitute... He's clearly a very simple brother, but to others, it seems like he's being a sycophant?

"Not bad, you actually got a spot." Mo Fan patted Zhao Manyan on the shoulder, genuinely surprised.

“A person who relies on his family’s wealth to bribe countless people to get a ticket is no different from you, a substitute who got in through connections.”

As soon as Mo Fan finished speaking, a sour voice came from Guan Yu.

“With so many people on a team, only five to seven actually play. Giving the other spots to rich tycoons is fine; it's just sponsorship for us,” Jiang Shaoxu added.

"..."

Hearing the group teasing Zhao Manyan, Mo Fan smiled and said, "Brother, are you having a hard time here?"

"Being handsome and rich inevitably attracts jealousy..." Zhao Manyan said nonchalantly.

Mo Fan agreed, and just then, he saw Mu Ningxue in the substitute position.

Then they approached, and Cao Le looked over as well. However, the two only exchanged a few words, and Mo Fan didn't make any advances.

This made Cao Le somewhat puzzled.

That's not very much like Mo Gouzi.

He originally thought he should beat him up.

But now it seems unnecessary.

He was just curious: what was wrong with the dog? Why had it suddenly changed its personality?

Cao Le still thought that the two of them had secretly developed feelings for each other when they were young, so he didn't care if others had feelings for Mu Ningxue, because those people could only dream about it.

But dogs are different!

"Everyone's here. Now let's talk about your upcoming training. Your ultimate goal is to participate in the Venice Water City National Palace Competition, which is also the World University Competition..." Just then, Feng Li, the instructor with the tiger-head tattoo, slowly walked over, his gaze sweeping over the thirteen people.

He recounted his experiences and the world championships, then dismissed everyone and sent them away....

...

Outside a small fishing village.

"I'm so tired!"

"Who says becoming a member of the National Guard means a life of leisure and comfort!"

"Why is my bank card frozen now, and my right to fly is also suspended...?"

"..."

Once they arrived, Mo Fan began to complain.

"Sure enough, mediocre people only know how to complain." Jiang Shaoxu said with a smile as he listened to Mo Fan's rant.

However, after knowing him for a few days, Cao Le could tell that it was a mocking smile. Even though it looked no different from usual, his eyes showed disdain.

This little brat is quite the little shrew.

Moreover, she was incredibly realistic. When he hadn't shown his true strength, in her eyes, Mo Fan was just like Zhao Manyan—a good-for-nothing rich kid who was just coasting along in the National Team because of his connections.

Her perception of Mo Fan seemed to change only after the fierce battle with the Crimson Demon Clan.

At that time, it was because of the strength that Mo Fan had demonstrated.

...

170. Asuka City

Mo Gouzi didn't have much observational ability; he just thought the woman had a beautiful smile and looked like she was untouched by worldly affairs.

"Jiang Shaoxu, tell me, how are we supposed to get to Japan under these circumstances?"

"This is a test for us in itself. The higher-ups forbid us from taking airplanes and do not allow us to use our background or identity to hitch a ride on any means of transportation. But we are mages, so we can't be left with nothing if we are thrown into a small fishing village."

Mo Fan paused, about to ask something, when Cao Le said directly, "Since we've been thrown here, it means there's trouble here that ordinary people can't handle, or rather, it's the first test our National Academy mentors are giving us. But like in a game, this is a hidden mission. The best way to complete it and discover the solution is to keep going down this path."

Upon hearing what Cao Le said, the group was taken aback.

Ai Jiangtu, who was at the front, turned around and looked at him, asking, "Cao Le, do you know something?"

"do not know."

Cao Le shook his head decisively, then added, "However, I think that's all they're capable of. Otherwise, why would they choose to have us here if there's no better option?"

After some thought, the group agreed...

Then the group of them began to walk along the road ahead.

The small fishing village wasn't far away. Passing through the seemingly non-existent grass fence, you could see a dozen or so low, flat old houses made of wood and stone. Over the years, the sea winds had eroded them, making them look somewhat damp.

Upon arriving in this village, they were immediately misunderstood.

It seemed like they were planning to forcibly demolish the village or something. The village chief and several strong young men living there all looked fierce and menacing, determined to protect the village to the death.

Fortunately, the sly Jiang Shaoxu and Nan Jue stepped forward to explain, and since both of them were pretty girls, the title of "bad guy" was removed from their hands.

Then the old man pointed them to a road leading to the port.

The group resumed their journey, but the girls in the group were still quite attractive. Even though they had walked quite a distance, the village boys were still staring longingly at the girls' shapely buttocks...

...

They hadn't gone far when Cao Le, who was walking ahead, noticed footsteps and immediately stopped.

Ai Jiangtu asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

“One of the people from that village is chasing after us,” Cao Le replied.

Ai Jiangtu was taken aback at first, then sensed it for a moment, and then felt somewhat embarrassed...

Because he didn't notice anything.

However, he had no doubt about Cao Le's abilities.

Cao Le said, "I think they probably have something to tell us. Let's wait a bit."

"Everyone, take a break." Ai Jiangtu nodded, then gestured for everyone to stop for a moment.

Guan Yu asked, puzzled, "Captain, aren't we in a hurry to get to the port? Why do we need to rest now?"

We're all magicians, so this distance is nothing to us.

It wasn't just Guan Yu who was puzzled; everyone else was puzzled too.

Ai Jiangtu responded, "One of the people from that village caught up with us. Perhaps they had something they didn't finish saying."

The group was stunned for a moment. Mo Fan, who was at the very back, looked back, but he didn't see anyone at all.

After waiting for ten minutes, there was still no sign of anyone, and everyone began to have some doubts.

Just then, a figure was seen running towards them.

At this moment, the group couldn't help but be secretly surprised. Just how strong was Ai Jiangtu?

Judging by how fast he ran, he must have come from a great distance!

We noticed someone approaching!

Ai Jiangtu was equally shocked, wondering just how powerful Cao Le must be.

Actually, Cao Le didn't sense anything at first, but he knew the child would definitely come. To avoid taking a wrong turn, having someone to guide him while he waited wouldn't hurt.
