The villain really doesn't want to steal the heroine.

This mana-destroying aura not only continuously consumes a small amount of mana from surrounding enemies, but also triggers a death wish when an undead monster dies, consuming a large amount of the enemy's mana at once.

Wanxing used group attack magic to kill a group of undead monsters, and his magic power was consumed without him noticing.

However, he didn't care much about it. With seven [Sources of Magic], he could recover instantly, so he could afford the loss of this amount of magic.

In order to facilitate the equipment of [Source of Magic], Wanxing specially asked the craftsmen of the Duke's Mansion to create a metal glove a few days ago. He drew the shape himself, and it is somewhat similar to the Infinity Glove.

Since the gloves only have the function of inlaying the [Source of Magic], theoretically speaking, the equipment forging is not difficult, and the material is mainly gold and is not hard.

So it was made very quickly, completed in less than an hour, and is now worn on Wanxing's left hand.

Wanxing called it the [Infinite Magic Gloves]. With these gloves, he quite liked the undead monsters on the 68th floor. It would be best if there were a steady stream of undead monsters sent to him for him to kill, so that he could upgrade faster.

As Wanxing killed groups of undead monsters, his magic power dropped very quickly. However, the [Infinite Magic Gloves] could restore his magic power to full in one second. With the two balanced, the magic bar jumped back and forth like a dance.

……

Time flies like flowing water.

The half month of monster hunting passed quickly.

With a "ding" sound, Wanxing opened the system interface:

【Experience value is full, level up! 】

[Magician Level: LV59~LV60]

[Warrior Level: LV59-LV60]

[Your familiar Xingyi's level: LV59~LV60]

"Finally promoted to the glorious realm!"

Wanxing stopped killing monsters with satisfaction and leveled up three times in half a month, from LV57 to LV60.

It would have been a few days faster, but as we all know, there are bottlenecks in the upgrade of a higher realm, so the experience bar from LV59 to LV60 is particularly long.

It was not until two days before the Six University Campus Exchange Competition that Wanxing successfully completed his promotion.

In addition to the significant increase in magic power and fighting spirit, the Glorious Realm also has the ability to fly freely.

Below this realm, except for some winged creatures, most races cannot fly directly unless they use special flight equipment, and humans are naturally the same.

As long as one can be promoted to the glorious realm, anyone can fly regardless of race.

Of course, flying still requires the consumption of magic power or fighting spirit. The larger the body, the more energy is required to fly, so the sea monsters that Wanxing encountered before did not like to fly into the sky.

Chapter 159: Cat Bus

After reaching LV60, not only Wanxing and Luo Ai'er gained the ability to fly, Xingyi also awakened a new dragon language magic - dragons with bloodline inheritance are such a perverted race, they don't need to learn, they can get stronger even when they sleep!

Different from the auxiliary dragon language magic [Star Seal] and the offensive dragon language magic [Star Spear], the awakened [Healing Star] is the purest healing dragon language magic.

According to the details interface seen by Wanxing, this dragon language magic can use the power of the stars to summon a star floating around the caster. This star will release a warm light that can quickly heal the wounds of teammates and the caster within the range of the starlight and restore combat effectiveness.

It just so happened that the Wanxing team was not short of attack and defense abilities, and the only healing abilities they had, apart from magic scrolls, were some of Sylphy's water magic.

More importantly, water magic is all-encompassing and includes both offensive and defensive magic, and is not specialized in healing.

So now Xingyi can awaken a pure healing dragon language magic, which is an excellent supplement for the Wanxing team that lacks healing ability.

After all, the dragon language magic inherited from the bloodline of the Star Dragon King is extremely powerful. I believe that this [Healing Star] is definitely one of the dragon language magics with the strongest healing ability.

From now on, let Sylphy use water magic to heal minor injuries, and let Xingyi cast [Healing Star] for serious injuries.

His thoughts turned back to the past, Wanxing closed the system interface, and took Luo Ai'er and Xingyi out of the Russell Maze and returned to the dormitory.

Although there are still two days before the Six-campus Exchange Competition begins, due to the long distance, the contestants from Russell Academy have to set off tomorrow.

So Wanxing has to go back early to rest today.

……

The next morning, in front of the gate of Russell Academy.

The principal, vice-principal, and the class teachers of all participating students were all present, as well as a guard team of nearly 100 people.

In fact, according to the practice of previous years, Duke Russell might also go together, and bring along the elite team of the Silver Knights.

However, this year, a large number of adventurers poured into Russell City, and the security in the territory became somewhat chaotic, so Duke Russell chose to stay and guard his home, and he did not send any members of the Silver Knights.

The main reason was that Duke Russell thought the Six University Campus Exchange Tournament was not dangerous, and even if he lost, it wouldn't be a big deal - the key was that he didn't know Wanxing was planning to cause trouble (assassinate the Eighth Prince), and judging from past experience, there was indeed no problem.

The eight contestants standing opposite the principal and others were the top eight in the actual combat competition a few months ago: Wanxing, MacArthur, Devilia, Claires, Hernandez, Bartholomew, Jerusis (Eighth Prince) and Ryutani Kaiwu - but Ryutani Kaiwu committed treason, so his place in the competition was replaced by the ninth place.

"All participating students must give their all and bring honor to Russell Academy! The academy will generously reward those who win..."

The principal was loudly encouraging the morale of the eight contestants who were about to set off.

Wanxing, as the first place in the actual combat competition, stood at the front. With a glance, he saw the Eighth Prince and the dozens of subordinates guarding him.

This guy is bringing so many people with him, he must be afraid of death.

Of course, participating students can indeed bring subordinates as guards, provided that the students have subordinates.

For example, Davriya brought Norlandi with her—because they were short of money before, they only recruited this one Guardian Knight. Now, although they have embraced the golden thigh of Wanxing and their financial situation has improved, there is no need to recruit more subordinates. Recruiting subordinates below the heroic level is useless because they can't keep up with the pace of the Wanxing team.

Apart from the prince and princess, Wanxing only brought two people with him - Loelle and Sylphy. Latifah Poseidon knew Wanxing's true strength, so she didn't follow him and stayed in Russell City.

After talking a lot of nonsense, the principal of Russell Academy waved his hand to summon his familiar [Cat Car] and asked the participating students and teachers to get on the car.

As for the hundred-man guard team, they were all on horseback, otherwise there would be no room for them to sit.

This familiar [Cat Car] is very large and can easily seat dozens of people. Its appearance is somewhat similar to the cat bus in the anime "My Neighbor Totoro" that Wanxing watched in his previous life.

The Cat Bus is not only as light as a swallow and extremely fast, but it can also ignore the terrain and cross mountains and rivers.

It was simply Wanxing’s dream car in his previous life. He really wanted to take it for a ride and was very envious of Totoro who could take the cat bus to go wherever he wanted.

Now that he encountered such a similar [cat car], Wan Xing was immediately very excited and got in first. He sat on a furry seat by the window in the back row and looked around curiously.

The girls in the team also followed suit and sat around him.

I have to admit that although the principal's familiar [Cat Cart] has low combat power, it is much more useful than the familiars of ordinary magicians that can only deliver messages. At least it can be used as a means of transportation, and its value is second only to flying mounts.

Seeing Wan Xing's love for the [Cat Cart], Xing Yi, who had been held in his arms, felt a sense of crisis and asked, "Brother, do you like this kind of mount? Xing Yi can also transform it into one for you to ride..."

Hearing this, the girls in the team that followed him all looked at him with very strange eyes.

"Oh, this," Wan Xing's heart skipped a beat. Noticing the strange looks from the girls, he immediately waved his hand and explained, "That's not necessary. Running on the ground is no match for flying. This is like picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons."

"Don't be so stubborn, I clearly saw you wavering for two seconds!" The sharp-tongued mermaid princess Erfei was the first to interrupt.

"Sorry for the misunderstanding. I just remembered a story called "My Neighbor Totoro" that I read when I was a child. Do you want to listen to it?" Wan Xing successfully diverted the attention of the team members by simply changing the subject.

"I want to listen, I want to listen..."

"It'll only take a day to reach our destination anyway, so there's plenty of time on the road!"

"Yeah, now it's not boring anymore."

……

While Wanxing started telling stories to the girls in the team, Hachioji had an argument with the principal.

Because Hachioji brought too many subordinates, the participating students and the accompanying teachers totaled nearly twenty people, and the space on the [Cat Car] was obviously not enough to accommodate Hachioji's dozens of subordinates.

Although Hachijo's subordinates could also follow on horseback like the guards, Buddhas fight over a stick of incense, and people fight over a breath of air.

Especially people in the royal family like Hachioji care more about face.

"Why can Wanxing bring his entourage on board, but this prince can't? Does the principal look down on the royal family?"

Hachioji questioned dissatisfiedly, feeling discriminated against.

Chapter 160: Business Goddess

"Your Highness, you misunderstood. I'm not targeting the royal family, but my familiar's carrying capacity is limited." After a pause, the principal added, "And Young Master Wanxing only brought four followers. There are still three empty seats on the [Cat Cart]. Your Highness, please take a look..."

In fact, the principal had something else hidden in his heart that he didn't say - Wanxing is the son of Duke Russell, and the entire Russell Academy belongs to him. He can do whatever he wants, and it's none of your business, Hachiko.

Of course, the principal didn't dare to say this out loud. After all, he was just an employee. Why should he risk his life for him?

When the Eighth Prince listened to the principal's explanation, he had some complaints - why can Wanxing bring four followers on the car, but this prince can only bring three followers on the car?

But when he thought about his plan for this trip - to find an opportunity to kill Wanxing to vent his anger while participating in the six-university campus exchange competition.

If he had a conflict with Wanxing now, then when Wanxing died, Duke Russell would suspect him of having a motive to kill.

So for now, just be patient, bide your time and wait for the right time. A little impatience will ruin a big plan!

Thinking of this, Hachioji took a deep breath to calm his anger, pointed at the three people, and said calmly: "Okay, you three follow me to get in the car, and the others follow on horseback."

In order to hide his murderous intention towards Wanxing, Hachioji didn't even look at Wanxing the whole time.

He thought he had concealed it well, but what he didn't know was that he was already on Wanxing's kill list, and it didn't make any sense whether he acted or not.

Wanxing didn't even pay attention to the Eighth Prince. There was no need to pay attention to a dying person.

While telling stories to the girls in the team, he recalled the rules of the Six University Campus Exchange Competition - divided into group matches and finals.

Eight people from each of the six universities formed eight groups to fight against each other.

In other words, the contestants must first defeat all the students from the other five major campuses in order to stand out from the group stage and participate in the finals. To achieve this is by no means an easy task!

This kind of competition arrangement can effectively avoid the possibility of contestants from the same school meeting each other before entering the finals.

Although on the surface, the slogan of the Six University Campus Exchange Competition is [Friendship first, competition second, fair competition, participation is important].

But in fact, contestants who get a place in the exchange competition can get points for their respective academies, and after the exchange competition is over, the comprehensive points of each academy will be calculated and the source of students will be redistributed.

Therefore, the competition among the six major campuses is still very fierce.

If a certain academy loses one of its two seeded players in a civil war, the academy will definitely raise an objection, suspecting that there is something fishy going on when arranging the match list.

Now that there is a group stage as a buffer, the occurrence of this situation can be greatly reduced, and the fairness of the six-campus exchange competition can be maintained.

The venue for the exchange competition is rotated among the six major campuses, and this year it is the turn of Christian Academy.

The Christian Academy's emblem is the goddess of commerce, symbolizing fair trade.

The school spirit is open-minded and brilliant. In addition to combat talent, the admission requirements also include business talent. It is the richest of the six major academies, even richer than the Royal Blois Academy.

……

A day later, the [Cat Car] arrived in [Christian City].

Because Duke Christian admires the goddess of commerce, the city has an exceptionally strong commercial atmosphere and is particularly large in scale. The bluestone streets, which are several times wider than those in Russell City, are lined with various shops and houses. The streets are bustling with people and the noise is endless, making it extremely lively.

Although he knew that this was a city in another world, Wanxing still felt a familiar atmosphere, like the embryonic form of capitalism in modern society in his previous life.

Wanxing got off the cat carriage and looked up to see the towering city wall that stretched to the end of his sight. It was ten feet high and majestic. There was also a winding moat flowing through it, surrounding the entire city.

At this moment, the receptionist arranged by Christian Academy at the city gate came forward to greet them.

"Russell Academy's participating team, please follow me."

The receptionist first saluted with a smile, and then politely invited the Russell Academy group into the city.

Just after passing through the city gate, one could see a massive statue situated in the center of the square. It depicted a slender, beautiful young woman with long, radiant golden hair and eyes like two molten golden orbs. She wore a robe embellished with various gemstones and precious metal sequins, a cape strung with gold coins, a gold belt, and golden boots studded with large pearls.

This statue is so luxurious, isn't there anyone who comes in the middle of the night to dig out a few pieces and sell them for money?

Out of curiosity, Wan Xing sent an analysis and identification power over, and then he suddenly realized:

[Statue of the goddess of commerce, trade and wealth]

[Material: Gilded stone statue...]

Well, it turns out it was just a fake, even the gems and pearls inlaid on it were fake.

No wonder there wasn't even a guard. Who would come to steal a stone?

The receptionist led everyone from Russell Academy across the square, wandering around for a long time before entering a huge circular arena at Christian Academy.

Wanxing looked at the surrounding layout and guessed that this was the venue for the exchange competition.
