Chapter 115 An Unsettling Aura

Magic is constantly evolving, and the major magic systems were not fixed from the beginning. People are constantly exploring and searching for new magic systems and new powers so that humanity can be better protected in this perilous world.

These new magic systems generally require a long period of research, refinement, and testing before they are finally included in the orthodox magic system. As for those new spells that are not included, they are prohibited from being used by anyone other than magic researchers who can experiment with them.

Of course, not all forbidden techniques are harmful. There are many forbidden techniques that can actually enhance one's strength, and some don't even require much effort.

To become powerful, you will definitely have to make some sacrifices.

These sacrifices are neither enormous nor inhumane, yet they are still banned.

Because those in power do not want everyone to become stronger, such a situation is not beneficial to their rule.

So, while clamoring for progress, there are also restrictions being imposed – this is the most realistic picture of the world today.

However, in any case, forbidden techniques are strictly prohibited in the National Games. Once discovered, the team will be disqualified and will also suffer severe international punishment. Li Kaifeng used the Bloodstained Technique in order to win the competition, which is really going too far.

Fortunately, it didn't cause too much damage. After all, although the Bloodstained Art is a forbidden art, it cannot be called an evil art. Evil arts are divided into cruel and cold levels. For example, the Black Church's ability to turn living people into black monsters and curse monsters is among the best evil arts and is condemned by the whole world!

"This internal battle wasn't meant to eliminate anyone, since one of you has already died in the wilderness. But Li Kaifeng, what you did this time was truly disappointing," Instructor Songhe sighed.

Li Kaifeng can be considered the crown prince of the Northern Academy Alliance, and his future is bound to be bright. There is really no need for him to use such a secret technique that is openly restricted.

"I...I understand, I'm sorry, I just didn't want to lose..." Li Kaifeng said with his head down and his voice filled with guilt.

"You should apologize, but we're not the ones who should apologize." Songhe was a little helpless. Why couldn't this kid get it? Oh well, let's give him a way out.

"I...I understand." Li Kaifeng bowed and ran towards Jiang Yu.

"Jiang Yu, I'm sorry, I really didn't want to lose, I apologize to you!" Li Kaifeng came to Jiang Yu, bowed deeply, and said sincerely.

Nan Rongni stood beside the two like a nobody, waiting to treat them again later. Jiang Yu's expression calmed down a bit, but his eyes were still icy cold.

Next came the battle between Mu Tingying and Zu Jiming. Zu Jiming, being a magic user, simply couldn't withstand Mu Tingying's explosive magic. In the end, Zu Jiming was defeated by Mu Tingying's main ice magic.

Finally, there are Nan Jue and Guan Yu. Guan Yu is an assassin, while Nan Jue is already at the advanced level in both plant and plant systems. Bai Feng had sensed that Nan Jue's plant system had also suddenly reached the advanced level, but Bai Feng did not make it public.

The high-level plant expert covered the entire competition field with plants, leaving Guan Yu with nowhere to stand. In the end, he was helplessly bound into a rice dumpling by Nan Jue's plant vines.

"Sigh, I didn't expect Nan Jue's plant system to have broken through to the advanced level. I still need to work on it for a while," Jiang Shaoxu said with some envy.

Bai Feng thought for a moment and realized that he still had an eighth-order Fiery Green Vine that he had drawn from the Dou Qi Continent. If Jiang Shaoxu absorbed this, she might be able to break through to the Super Rank directly. However, he still didn't give it to Jiang Shaoxu. He wanted to give it to Mu Nujiao when she came to Venice from the National Pavilion. With Ai Tutu as his "best friend," winning over Mu Nujiao would be a sure thing. And Jiang Shaoxu, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, was never short of resources.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Shaoxu asked curiously, looking at Bai Feng who was in a daze.

"It's alright, I still have a few Star River Veins. You can ask me for them if you need them." Bai Feng said to Jiang Shaoxu after regaining his senses, and also to the others. The stronger the others were, the greater the strength of the National Team. Of course, this only applied to his few good friends.

"Really! Lao Bai, get me one. I'm about to break through to the high level in my summoning system, and I'm just missing a Star River Vein!" Mo Fan came up behind Bai Feng and said with a look of surprise.

"Hmm. I'll give you a discount, a small goal," Bai Feng said casually.

"Given our relationship, how about I give you another discount?" Mo Fan massaged Bai Feng's shoulders.

"There's no room for negotiation. I bought it for 110 million, and I even asked for 10 million less." Bai Feng slapped Mo Fan's hand away.

"Alright, alright, I'll transfer it to you later." Mo Fan said with some reluctance. He had finally managed to get some resources, but he still didn't have a lightning-type soul seed. As for the fire-type soul seed, Old Zhao said he had already found out and could get it today.

"Alright, let's go back. We still need to go to the Mexican Pavilion tomorrow to get their national emblem." Bai Feng stood up, took Jiang Shaoxu's soft hand, and headed towards the tavern. Jiang Shaoxu had seen a particularly unique tavern while strolling around earlier.

The lighting was pure green, and there were people dressed as clowns and ghosts inside. It was both a tavern and a haunted house, which was really interesting.

"Wow, this place is really interesting. Look, isn't this Sadako? And that one, isn't it Kayako?" Jiang Shaoxu said, pointing inside as she walked with Bai Feng's arm around him.

"Heh, I wonder which genius designed this tavern." Bai Feng's lips twitched. Inside, there was a bunch of ghostly things writhing around. Damn it... speechless.

The two ordered two glasses of low-alcohol fruit wine. While they were chatting casually, Bai Feng suddenly sensed an unusual aura, like that of an undead or a shadow creature.

"Vampires?" Bai Feng raised an eyebrow, a meaningful smile appearing on his lips. There was a high probability that there was a vampire's lair in Mexico. After taking down the entire vampire family, the wealth would be extraordinary, at least tens or hundreds of billions of dollars. Add some magical resources, and they would hardly need to worry about money for the next two or three years.

"Little fox, I probably won't be going back to the apartment for the next couple of days. Tell them that this is a bit tricky." Bai Feng took a sip of fruit wine, his brows furrowing slightly.

The reason he frowned was because he had just left a Shadow Mark on that vampire. The Shadow Mark was slowly fading, which could be because someone had discovered it, or something he didn't know was eroding it.
