I gained immortality in Full-Time Magician

Chapter 32, Preparation

Jiang Shang was somewhat surprised by the reward from Shuiyun Swimming Pool this time; he alone received nearly 5 yuan.

The swimming pool manager offered the demon-hunting team a reward of 50 this time, and he took nearly 10%. Although Jiang Shang had just joined the team, based on his performance in this mission and the level two Thunder Seal he displayed, he was not only promoted to a full-fledged member, but also had his bonus share increased.

However, it's unlikely we'll encounter such a huge sum again. This time, the swimming pool was in a rush to reopen, which is why they gave them such a large commission. For them, missing even one day of business means losing millions.

Jiang Shang also deposited this money in the bank, as he would need it for his future awakening money after advancing to the intermediate level.

"Hmm?? The lightning-elemental stars seem to have changed somewhat, could it be...?"

Jiang Shang discovered that his stars had become brighter and more active.

"It seems the intermediate level is just around the corner!"

On days when he had no missions, Jiang Shang stayed at home and continued his cultivation.

The city's monster-hunting team's work isn't busy; it's more about adjusting the pace of life. At least Jiang Shang has nearly 7 hours of meditation time every day.

And after each battle with demons, the light emanating from the lightning star grows ever brighter.

The higher-level magical nebula was something very unfamiliar and novel to him. The books were vague about this breakthrough, so he relied entirely on his own intuition.

As his stardust emitted a radiance that gradually intensified like a pulse, Jiang Shang vaguely sensed that this was likely a sign of a breakthrough.

Normally, stardust is very stable. Now, the stardust is covered with a strange, aurora-like light shell. After this period of meditation, the stardust shows obvious desire and restlessness. It is like a small life in an egg, eager to break through the light shell covering it.

Each burst of brilliance represents the stardust's attempt to break free from its constraints; each dimming of brilliance may simply be the stardust gathering its strength.

During this time, he could also clearly feel the changes in Xingzi's emotions; they wanted to break free from their constraints!

"Just a little bit more"

Go back to Uncle Nan and ask him to speed up your cultivation.

Today is the first day of school for senior high school students, and students who have spent the summer vacation are gradually returning to school.

On the playground, there were still freshmen standing in line, while on the podium, the old principal, whose temples were already gray, was still giving a speech. Everything was just like when Jiang Shang opened the school in person.

"Wow, look! Someone has awakened their fire element! There are even flames!"

Yes.

"How many light-elemental beings have awakened already? Has anyone counted them?"

"Nine!"

"Tsk, those poor kids."

In the corridor, the senior high school students watched the awakening ceremony of the freshmen with surprise and astonishment.

Suddenly, a purple light flashed across the playground.

"Look! Someone has awakened their lightning element!"

"That's the formation of Class 3, Grade 11."

"Wow, there's another lightning-type awakening this year, I'm so envious."

"So handsome!"

Jiang Shang also leaned over the corridor of the teaching building, watching the awakening ceremony below. After all, the awakening ceremony was like a gacha pull; no one knew what they would get. If elemental magic was the permanent gacha pool, then dimensional and black/white magic were the rare gacha pools. Getting lightning or dimensional magic was like getting gold!

Even if you're not the one withdrawing the funds, it's still quite interesting to watch others withdraw them.

"Holy crap, damn it!" Jiang Shang suddenly cursed as he watched.

The reason is that during the first-year high school awakening magic on the playground, a moon-white magical glow appeared on someone's awakening stone.

Jiang Shang now knows exactly what this color is.

That's a summoner!

Once awakened, you can directly go for the magic-type special recruitment!

If lightning is the king of elements, then summoning is the king of magic that can be awakened at the beginner level! One of its summoned beasts can be as powerful as a small team. At the beginner level, as long as you can fully summon a beast, you can do whatever you want!

This thing is even cooler than the lightning type. It looks like the awakening of the summoning type student completely overshadowed the awakened lightning type student above.

"I can't watch anymore, someone's cheating!"

Jiang Shang turned and left the corridor, returning to the meditation room for meditation.

He also wanted to awaken the Summoning ability, but unfortunately, he couldn't fit it into his four remaining magic slots.

Space-type abilities are a must-have for every transmigrator, right? That's telekinesis! It's a great tool that can throw demons away with a wave of your hand, and at higher levels, it can even allow for teleportation.

We need either a water-type or an ice-type, right? We'll need them to fight the siren later.

How about a Chaos type? Those above the Super-Order level have already touched upon the power of time. What's that saying again: "Time reigns supreme, space is king?"

Wouldn't it be wonderful to have space on the left and time on the right?

If you count on your fingers, there's only one spot left for the magic system. How can that be given to the summoning system? There are so many magic systems that haven't been chosen yet.

School life in the new semester was the same as before. After experiencing trials, the students' temperament had obviously changed. In addition, with the Magic College Entrance Examination approaching, those students who were usually lax were working extra hard and frequently appeared on the training ground.

However, he himself no longer goes to the training ground.

Hitting humanoid puppets is useless. He has now turned this meaningless training and practice into real combat, fighting demons face to face. The improvement effect is much better than hitting puppets on the school playground!

In the evenings or when he was on a mission, Jiang Shang would ask his homeroom teacher, Qin Renyuan, for leave. Old Qin would always readily agree.

This is the preferential treatment given to good students!

The days passed by in this uneventful yet eventful way.

Jiang Shang also dedicated all of his precious youth to cultivation and demon hunting!

"Hey, Uncle Nan, when can I go to that treasure land you mentioned to cultivate? I've already reached the breakthrough threshold."

"What! You're so fast, kid!" Nan Shu made a clattering sound from the phone in Jiang Shang's hand, sounding quite excited.

After the sounds from that side stopped, Uncle Nan's voice came through.

"Come over tomorrow. Tell your homeroom teacher today."

"it is good"

Beep beep~~~~~~~~

Jiang Shang was slightly taken aback. He hung up the phone already?

Forget it, I should go find Lao Qin and explain the situation first.

Jiang Shang put away the phone and walked towards his office.

dong dong dong~

"Come in"

When Jiang Shang went inside, he found Lao Qin holding a thermos, drinking from it while scrolling through his phone.

"Hey, why are you putting goji berries in your thermos?" Jiang Shang laughed.

"Haha, you're not always in control of your own destiny when you reach middle age. You'll understand when you do. So, what's the matter this time?"

"It's nothing, I just need to take a day off tomorrow, probably for about a week." Jiang Shang scratched his head.

puff~

"One week!!! Do you even know that the college entrance exam is coming up this year? Instead of focusing on your training, you're making the most of your time. Usually, taking a day off is fine, but this time it's absolutely not allowed!" Old Qin shook his head firmly.

"I took leave this time because of my cultivation; Commander Nan Cheng invited me to come."

"real?"

"real."

"Then let me confirm it. You've fooled me several times already," Old Qin said.

Qin Renyuan then picked up a phone and dialed the number, explaining Jiang Shang's situation to the other end. After a short while, he heard Jiang Shang nod in agreement.

After hanging up the phone, Lao Qin picked up his thermos full of goji berries and took a sip to calm his nerves. He then said to Jiang Shang, "Go ahead, the leadership has agreed. Don't let us down. Be here on time tomorrow; a delivery truck will take you."

Having received the answer he wanted, Jiang Shang didn't waste any time. He praised Lao Qin profusely and left the office.

For the intermediate stage, should I awaken the Ice/Water element or the Spatial element? +_+
