Full-Time Mage: Starting from Obtaining the Mysterious Ancient Tree

Chapter 179 Charming
The inner city of the ancient capital.

Under a pergola.

Fang Yu held a steaming cup of coffee, gazing at the sky above the ancient capital.

There were countless helicopters hovering there, with countless supplies landing on them.

In the Sifang region.

Under the glow of the night lights, a scene of people busily working.

They are rebuilding the ancient capital.

After a long while, Fang Yu took a big gulp, then sighed as if expelling all the stale air from his chest, which had been contaminated by the dead.

Early spring is approaching.

The New Year is coming.

Hopefully, Gudu can restore everything to its original state as much as possible before the New Year.

"Jingle Bell!"

Fang Yu finished his coffee and was about to turn and leave when his phone, which was in his pocket, suddenly rang.

Upon answering the phone, I immediately heard Dean Xiao's admonishing voice:

"The National Government's nomination process has entered the final selection stage. Since you only have three nomination votes, you can only be a candidate at most. You still need to compete to enter the main election!"

"So now you need to head to the Imperial Capital University to report for duty."

"Understood!" Fang Yu replied.

The battle for the title of the world's best universities is finally drawing to a close!
That place is the world stage where young mages from all over the world compete.

What moved Fang Yu was...

Before they can reach the final showdown in Venice, they still need a year of training.

However, there are many valuable resources to be acquired during the training process.

……

Two days later.

We arrived in the capital city.

The air here is as bad as ever; the sky is covered with a grayish-brown hue, and you can't see any blue sky or white clouds.

After taking a deep breath of the smog in the capital, Fang Yu finally arrived outside the Imperial Academy.

Following the location, he arrived at the center of the Imperial Capital Academy, where there was a magic duel arena.

The magic duel arena is magnificent, with the entire venue shaped like a star and covered by a black, four-arched dome that can be closed or opened. Surrounding it is a vast seating area that can accommodate 50,000 people, making it grand and imposing!
Not long after.

Fang Yu then saw a handsome man with dyed blond hair.

but.

The man's lewd expression as he stared at his phone ruined the aesthetic, and to make matters worse, he spoke into the phone via voice message:
"Come to the hotel tonight, the room is big, and the bed is even bigger."

Fang Yu walked over and patted Zhao Manyan's shoulder hard, saying, "Such a handsome face, but this lewd expression completely ruins the beauty?"

"Get out, get out, get out..." Zhao Manyan said irritably.

"So engrossed in beautiful women, I bet you've even forgotten why you came here," Fang Yu teased.

"how is this possible?"

“My dream is to sleep with all the world’s top models, so I’m very well prepared with my ‘money power’,” Zhao Manyan replied.

"You still have this ambition?" Fang Yu said.

"Of course, don't tell me you're not interested in foreign beauties," Zhao Manyan said disdainfully.

The topic has already been discussed.

The two, who shared the same hobby, then put their arms around each other and began to have a deeper conversation.

soon.

Two people walked towards us.

Feng Li, a chief instructor with tiger-striped forehead, is also serving as the chief instructor of the National Trial Council. He is currently serving as the national instructor for the World University Competition!
Another one is Dean Songhe of the Imperial Academy, who also serves as a tutor for this year's National Academy.

"Now that everyone is here, let's get started," Dean Songhe said bluntly.

"The rule is that you choose your own opponent, and the person chosen cannot refuse. Everyone has to play three matches."

"We will decide on the selection of the main team based on your performance."

"Young people, show yourselves to the fullest!"

Instructor Feng Li's voice echoed in everyone's ears.

At this time.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense. No matter how good the relationship was before, at this moment, they would completely break off their facade.

If we can't even win the qualifying rounds.

Thinking about the Battle of Venice is simply a pipe dream!
That's the world's top-level competition; anyone who makes an appearance there has an extremely bright and limitless future.

The duel begins.

When Fang Yu appeared, with his high-level magic skills, no one could defeat him in a single blow. He quickly defeated his opponent and became one of the advancing contestants.

Having secured his advancement, he watched with great interest as his peers displayed their skills on the field.

In the field.

Zhao Manyan's performance was equally impressive. He used light and water-based defenses in turn, along with a variety of magical tools, to exhaust his opponent's magical energy. Finally, he finished him off with a magic-slaying tool.

He truly deserves to be called a man with "money power".

Watched for a while.

Fang Yu then got up and left.

He did not stay in the capital for long.

Instead, they returned to Shanghai.

……

Shanghai, Qingtian Hunting Grounds!

The second floor.

Leng Qing sat on the sofa, her beautiful eyes, like autumn water, lowered, her dark hair falling beside her ears, her neck white and tender, her gentle temperament captivating.

Leng Qing was at home alone, listening to music on TV. Fang Yu walked over and sat down next to her, saying:
"do you miss me?"

"Didn't you participate in the capital's selection trials? Why are you back now!" Leng Qing stared at Fang Yu.

"Once you get a spot, you'll come back."

Fang Yu couldn't help but yawn, his eyes watery as he looked at Leng Qing beside him and said, "I've been traveling all day, I want to rest."

"Go back and rest if you're tired," Leng Qing replied.

"That won't work."

Leng Qing ignored him and sat there quietly, only her brows furrowing slightly.

Not a moment later.

The music began.

The piece is Elgar's "Salut d'Amour," a song he dedicated to his newlywed wife. In the typical serenade style, it paints an elegant picture of love for the world.

In the TV series, the musician played a deeply affectionate melody on his violin, much like the tender whispers of lovers. Within the gentle tune, there was also a touch of melancholy.

slowly.

As the piece faded into the finale, tinged with complex emotions, the lingering echoes in the room seemed like the whispered secrets of lovers.

Leng Qing squinted, listening intently to the performance, and gradually her emotions began to overflow.

At this time.

A faint snoring sound reached my ears, small yet exceptionally clear.

The sudden noise interrupted Leng Qing's wonderful enjoyment. She pouted slightly, a hint of annoyance in her eyes, and quickly turned her head away.

result.

A bit dumbfounded.

The little rascal next to me had fallen asleep at some point and was even snoring.

Seeing him lying on his side, fast asleep in an extremely awkward position, Leng Qing felt a pang of heartache. After a moment of contemplation, she silently reached out her hands and gently straightened his body, while slowly leaning her shoulder against his.

Another period of time.

Sudden.

Leng Qingqing couldn't help but shiver, and then her whole body went limp.

He, he actually...

Leng Qing felt like she was going crazy.

Leng Qing felt her neck being bitten, or rather, not bitten, but sucked in in a very strange way. In an instant, it felt as if her entire soul was being sucked out by the suction force. A feeling of shame and anger kept assaulting her brain.

However, this feeling is also quite peculiar, a bit tingly and a bit numb.

Leng Qing abruptly pushed away the person leaning on her shoulder. Perhaps due to the shock, she lost control of her strength and saw Fang Yu, who was still asleep, slam his forehead against the table and chair in front of him. After a muffled thud, he was awakened by the pain.

"Oh My God"

"Ouch! Holy crap, what's going on?"

Fang Yu clutched his throbbing forehead, looking at Leng Qing beside him with a miserable expression.

Then he found the mature Leng Qing staring at him angrily, her eyes looking as if she was about to devour him.

Go back to sleep!

Leng Qing got up and strode quickly toward the room, her voice filled with malice.

Fang Yu, completely bewildered, stared longingly at her departing figure, feeling even more lost. But his confusion didn't last long before his attention was drawn to his own forehead.

hiss.
It's swollen.

Ugh!
After resting for a night at the Azure Sky Hunting Grounds, Fang Yu could only leave with reluctance, as his ice-type cultivation had already reached the threshold of the second level of the high-level stage!
It's time for an upgrade.
