Versatile Mage: One innate talent for each system

Chapter 170 The Treasury will open a special channel for you
Tianlan Magic High School.

Every class was broadcasting footage of the Nationalist government battle.

"See that? Your senior Jiang Yuan is the captain of the Chinese National Team! He is the number one genius mage of the younger generation in China. After the National Team battle, he will definitely become the number one genius mage in the world!!" Xue Musheng proudly introduced Jiang Yuan on the TV.

He's said this same thing countless times.

Xue Musheng never tired of talking, and the students never tired of listening.

They all deeply admired Jiang Yuan.

At this moment, the camera panned across the Chinese national team.

Mo Fan's large face appeared, and Xue Musheng immediately said, "Your senior Mo was also a member of the National Team. He was a prominent figure in our school back then, but he was still a bit inferior to your senior Jiang. Of course, Mo Fan would be a genius anywhere, but he was just slightly inferior to Jiang Yuan."

"You should learn from these two senior students, get into Mingzhu University, and then join the National Team to win glory for the country!"

"If you perform well in the next assessment, then after the World University Competition ends, I will invite two senior students to come and personally guide your cultivation!"

"oh!!!!"

Cheers erupted in the classroom.

.........

The competition site.

"Is that Jiang Yuan from the Chinese National Team?"

"I heard he killed a monarch-level undead in Egypt, so he's probably the strongest player in this tournament."

"Who knows? China's ranking was so low last time, it's been controversial internationally for a long time. Maybe China is just trying to boost their captain's popularity, that's why they're spreading this news?"

"It's possible, but he's definitely very strong and a serious opponent to watch out for."

"."

The discussion about Jiang Yuan quickly shifted to the Egyptian incident.

Many people don't believe that Jiang Yuan could kill a monarch-level undead all by himself.

That was a terrifying undead that only a team of super-level mages could handle. If Jiang Yuan had dealt with it all by himself, wouldn't that mean he could have won the championship by himself?

Therefore, under the guidance of certain individuals, the rumors about the Egyptian events gradually became perceived as something China was doing to create momentum.

The incident is definitely true, but it's highly questionable whether Jiang Yuan was the only one who killed them.

On the stage, all the team captains had already drawn their lots.

The opponent for the first round has been determined.

"Old Jiang, which National Team will be our opponent in the first round?" Mo Fan asked as he stepped forward.

"You see."

Jiang Yuan revealed the results of the draw.

Our first opponent is Canada.

"Canada? That lackey that follows America around like a shadow?" Mo Fan laughed. Taking down a lackey was as easy as stepping on an ant.

“The opponents in the first round are not very strong, Jiang Yuan, so you shouldn’t go on stage yet. Wait until the treasure hunt and the third round. How about letting Ai Jiangtu, Mo Fan, Mu Nujiao, Mu Ningxue, and Guan Yu go on stage in the first round?” Instructor Feng Li said.

"Okay, let's do it this way."

Jiang Yuan agreed. After all, it was Canada, and their ranking among the thirty-two teams wasn't high, so Mo Fan and his team could easily handle them.

The first round of matches was held at the Torrento Magic Arena, with the opening match being a battle between China and Canada, and the stands were packed.

The magic arena was vast, set up by a specially invited venue master, and quickly simulated a wild environment. This environment ensured that neither side was biased, allowing them to fully utilize their abilities while also providing a thrilling spectacle for the audience.

"The match is about to begin. National team players, please come to the stage and get ready!" the referee shouted.

The Chinese team and the Canadian team entered the field one after the other.

The cheers from all around reached their peak.

The two teams huddled together to discuss tactics, and after everything was ready, they signaled to the referee.

Upon receiving the message, the referee flew to the top of the field and announced in a loud voice: "Both teams are ready, prepare the salute!"

"boom!"

The first cannon salute sounds, scattering golden blossoms across the sky. The cannon salute marks the countdown. When the central cannon roars to life and a dreamlike, mesmerizing waterscape fireworks display begins, the opening ceremony will officially commence!

.........

"boom!!!!!!"

A loud bang was heard overhead, and dreamy, golden fireworks burst in the sky.

The battle is imminent!
Because of the distance, the two teams did not meet immediately.

Ai Jiangtu stared intently in the direction of the Canadian team and warned, "Be careful of traps. There are likely curse and poison mages in their team. You need to pay special attention to whether there is any poison in the air or in the surrounding objects. Don't let them trick you. I'll handle the curse mages."

"Wind Barrier." Mu Ningxue softly released wind magic.

A gentle breeze swirled around everyone, forming a thin wind barrier. In case of any unexpected event, the barrier could accelerate its rotation to block out toxins in the air.

"As we enter the jungle ahead, keep a close eye on your teammates' positions at all times. Don't let yourself get isolated. Don't underestimate the Canadian team; if they can outmaneuver someone, even the American team could be upset," Ai Jiangtu reminded them again.

"Mo Fan, don't act like a reckless brute later," Guan Yu said to Mo Fan, who was standing to the side.

"Am I that kind of person? I possess the same extreme composure as Lao Jiang!" Mo Fan flashed his bright white teeth and laughed.

"If you don't obey the vice-captain's orders, I'll use ice to make your extreme calmness even calmer," Mu Ningxue said abruptly.

"Okay, okay, I'll follow your orders!"

Mo Fan nodded repeatedly.

The first wife has spoken, so we have no choice but to listen!

“Alright, let’s prepare to enter the jungle,” Ai Jiangtu said.

Everyone nodded and then stepped into the jungle in front of them, as did the Canadian team on the other side.

In the stands, Jiang Yuan and the other mentors sat together watching the competition. The Canadian team was mediocre; they could only follow the American team and get a little bit of the spoils. They weren't a team worth paying attention to.

The progress is going very smoothly, and Ai Jiangtu and his team are finding it easy to deal with the Canadian team.

We'll be able to secure victory soon.

"Jiang Yuan, do you know that your name is on the list of forbidden spell seeds?" Feng Li asked in a low voice.

"I don't know," Jiang Yuan shook his head.

Although he didn't know, based on the previous promise from the Chinese military leader, he could probably guess that he already had a reputation among the Chinese high command.

“It’s okay if you don’t know. It’s not something that can’t be talked about. Only a few people know about this, and so far no one has objected to the legitimacy of your being on the list,” Feng Li said with a smile.

He continued, "With so many of your magic systems already at the high-level, the Star Sea Celestial Vein can only raise two magic systems to the super-level at most. I heard that after the competition, the national treasury will be opened specifically for you. At that time, with several systems available, the rare and precious materials inside can help you break through to the super-level!"
