Chapter 139 I've encountered both of the two major killers of beginner-level mages.
"no problem."
"So you're a mid-level awakened magic user, right? The settings have already been configured for you."
"High-level."
"?"
"I'm here to awaken a high-level magic system," Su Ming said with a smile. He was misunderstood, but that was normal, since many people his age did awaken mid-level magic systems.
Su Ming's words instantly caused a stir, and many people looked over. High-level, that's a realm that many mages dream of.
The receptionist also looked incredulous, but her professionalism was evident, and she quickly composed herself.
"Here is the amount you need to pay. Because Chaos-type Guiding Stones are quite expensive, and this is a high-level awakening, the price will be a bit high." The receptionist said. Su Ming glanced at it, his eye twitching, but he still reluctantly paid. Fortunately, the old principal had enough money in his card, and he was willing to lend it to him, although paying it back later would be a bit troublesome.
Su Ming walked to the side and sat down. The previous person who had awakened had not yet appeared, so he needed to wait a while.
"Ahhhhhhh!" A wail suddenly echoed in the awakening room. The person who had gone in to awaken the lightning element walked out dejectedly. His steps were unsteady, and his body swayed as if he was about to fall at any moment. Seeing this, Su Ming understood that there was a problem with the awakening. He had not awakened the lightning element, nor the fire element. After all, if he had awakened the fire element, he wouldn't be shouting like this.
I'm guessing it's a basic flying type like light or water, so this is understandable.
"You're next, you can come in now." A middle-aged man walked out of the awakening room and said to Su Ming. The awakening room was similar to the one over there last time, just different.
The middle-aged man took a transparent stone from the back warehouse and placed it in the center.
"You're really lucky, kid. There's only one Chaos-type Guiding Stone left." The middle-aged man laughed, then walked to the side to look at it after placing the guiding stone.
As before, Su Ming placed his hand on it.
A few minutes later, Su Ming left the Magic Association building. Two specks of stardust appeared in his mental world, one a dazzling gold and the other a deep blue.
He single-handedly took on the novice assassins, dealing with both water and light elements, though he doesn't really care about that now!
But the thought of my money going down the drain, and the fact that raising these two types of creatures would require spirit seeds and soul seeds, made me feel a little pained.
It's all money.
Fortunately, Xiaoqing is quite good at making things right; I've never bought her anything in all her years, and she probably doesn't need anything anyway.
The awakening process continued in the room, with people coming in one after another to awaken. After Su Ming left, the staff put the awakening stones back in the distance. One person who wanted to awaken the Chaos element awakened the Light element instead, and was probably in a bad mood.
After placing the awakening stone, he took out another awakening stone and went outside. After he left, the previous awakening stone suddenly emitted a dazzling azure light.
That was the radiance of water element awakening, but no one saw this change. As time passed, the radiance gradually disappeared, as if nothing had ever happened. After leaving the Magic Association, Su Ming visited all the surrounding pharmacies and bought a lot of medicine. He packed all of these away. After finishing everything, it was already dark. Su Ming returned to the Ancient Capital Academy and knocked on the principal's office door, but no one answered. He could only keep the card he wanted to return for the time being.
The old headmaster has disappeared somewhere. It's too late today, and there are only spirits outside. We can only go to the ancient tomb tomorrow.
Su Ming thought for a moment and decided to sleep at school for the night. Going home was too far. To be honest, he didn't really have a home. He hadn't been back to that apartment for years, and his things might have been thrown away. Hotels outside were also a bit pricey.
I've slept in the wild before, so spending the night on campus is nothing special.
After looking around and making sure no one was around, Su Ming used teleportation. A flash of white light appeared, and Su Ming entered the principal's office. He lay down on the sofa. He didn't have his phone, and after a day of wandering around, he had awakened two magic types. He was exhausted.
However, he didn't just lie down and sleep. It wasn't good to take off his clothes here, and sleeping in clothes was the same as sleeping naked, which could easily lead to a cold.
Su Ming thought for a moment, then picked up a book from the table, covered his belly button, and went to sleep.
Outside the ancient capital, two people were flying high in the sky, their destination being Tianshan. These two people were none other than Jiuyouhou and the old principal. Jiuyouhou was going to Tianshan to find someone, and the old principal went along as well.
They weren't in a rush and controlled their pace to avoid tiring themselves out.
"After the Nine Netherworlds, what was your purpose in going to Tianshan? The treasures there are of little use to a ghost like you, and besides, that place is dangerous, for both humans and demons." The old headmaster asked with concern.
"I'm looking for someone, didn't I already tell you? And what's the point of you following along? You're an old man, don't expect me to save you when you're in danger." Jiuyouhou said impatiently. "Then who are you looking for? A man or a woman? Are they friends? Is it a request or something? Hey, Jiuyouhou, speak properly!"
The old headmaster kept asking questions, and Jiuyouhou kept increasing her speed, but the old headmaster was able to keep up steadily. This was meaningless and only made him tired. Finally, Jiuyouhou got angry.
She said coldly, "Looking for someone, a man named Mu Gannian. Now you know, right? And since you're coming along, you'd better keep quiet, or I'll kill you right now."
The old headmaster wanted to ask something more, but he held back when he saw Jiu You's almost murderous gaze.
Mu Qiannian is a seasoned veteran of the Ancient Capital Academy. He's still a student there and has never taken a graduation exam, making him a freak.
Although his personality was eccentric, the old headmaster knew why. Moreover, Mu Gannian was very strong, a super-level mage, and was in the same year as Lu Huan. He had a very good relationship with Han Ji and always helped Han Ji handle things behind the scenes.
The old headmaster also knew about Mu Ganjin's situation. That ice bow, well, it's a strange thing from the Mu family. It requires a huge amount of ice-type resources to feed it, but the two siblings are having a hard time in the Mu family's territory.
This left them with no choice but to come inland. Mu Gannian was in the Tianshan Mountains and had disappeared. The old principal didn't even need to think about it; he must have come to the Tianshan Mountains for Mu Gannian's ice resources.
After all, this place is a holy land for ice mages, and its ice resources are the most abundant and purest. The old headmaster always knew that Mu Gannian would come here sooner or later.
However, I really didn't expect that Mu Gannian would disappear, especially in the Tianshan Mountains, where disappearance to some extent means death.
What's even more unbelievable is that Jiuyouhou actually came to Tianshan specifically to search for Mu Gannian, which made the old principal feel somewhat depressed.
