I gained immortality in Full-Time Magician

Chapter 56, Hello, Ghost Wolf Beast!

Jiang Shang eventually went to the welcome party.

It's not that he's all talk and no action; he says he won't go, but then he goes anyway.

He was practically dragged there by Vincent Fang and his group!

These guys treated him to dinner the night before last, saying it was to "celebrate the arrival of the Space Department's big shot to my Fire Department dormitory for guidance."

In addition, a string of sugar-coated bullets.

Unfortunately, he lacked the great man's ability to "swallow the sugar coating and fire back the cannonballs," and was easily captured by Fang Wenshan and his group.

They carried him directly to the welcome party venue, one on each side.

The welcome ceremony was held in the Qingdou Hall, which was built to be even larger than the football stadium in my previous life. I heard that this thing was the private property of Mingzhu Academy.

Building such a large competition venue in Shanghai, where land is incredibly valuable, is enough to demonstrate the financial strength of Mingzhu University!

The entire Qingdou Arena has now been transformed into a huge fighting arena, surrounded by a barrier on all sides, and a holographic viewing effect has been thoughtfully added to the barrier.

It showcases the most exciting moments from both sides of the match!

As Jiang Shang walked along the entrance road, he looked at the huge barrier in front of him and said, "The beast fighting competition is held every year. This barrier alone must cost a lot of money. If you add the cost of the venue damage caused by each competition, our school is really rich and powerful."

"You don't know this, do you? These barriers are automatically generated by magic circles, and they only respond automatically when they sense magic attacking the stands. They are usually in a low-energy state, which is nothing to Pearl Academy." Fang Wenshan turned his head to explain after hearing Jiang Shang's words.

"Yeah, it didn't cost much at all. Even the arena that looks the most damaged was actually made by an earth mage! The manpower was just that slightly chubby earth mage, Zhou Zhenghua. He personally made it for every competition with earth teachers and some earth students." Lu Guangren, another fire mage roommate walking to Jiang Shang's left, pointed to a teacher on the platform and said.

"."

After Jiang Shang entered the venue, he parted ways with his roommate. They went to the fire-type students' area together, while Jiang Shang turned right and went to the dimensional-type students' area.

The Dimensional System students' territory is like that of an unloved stepmother; the combined area of ​​the three systems is only about one-third the size of the Thunder System students' territory, not to mention the area of ​​major systems like Water and Fire.

You're asking about summoning?

They are on the field below and are not included in the headcount.

This puts them in the middle, caught between black magic and white magic.

I forgot to mention, there are quite a lot of students in each of the two major categories, Black Magic and White Magic.

Although the number of high school students who awaken black and white magic is relatively small, the cumulative number across the national population is still quite large.

It's much stronger than the prerequisite of needing strong mental power or corresponding talent to awaken a dimensional system.

Looking at the three Chaos students behind him and the nine Sound students behind him, Jiang Shang's silence was deafening.

If I hadn't come, this generation of space-age specialists would have gone extinct, right?

"Brother, are you the only one with a spatial ability?" Fu Shaoquan asked as Jiang Shang entered the arena and sat in front of him.

Upon hearing the question, Jiang Shang turned around and looked behind him, only to find that the students from the Chaos Department were sitting there.

"Yes, it's just me," Jiang Shang replied.

"Most of the students who first awakened in the Space Department are from aristocratic families, and they mostly inherited it from their parents. Most of them went to Imperial University in the capital." A music student nodded and said, as if he was quite familiar with this situation.

"Yes, even the few geniuses have been recruited by the forces entrenched in various places," a Chaos Department student chimed in.

Just as Jiang Shang was about to speak, he heard Dean Xiao's voice coming from the podium.

"Before I begin my speech, I'd like to tell you something."

"If all you want is to be a respected magician in society, earn a high salary, and live a high-quality life... then I must tell you with certainty that you've come to the wrong place."

"A magician who graduates from Pearl Academy is destined to have the ability to change the world and to be a hero capable of protecting humanity. If anyone only pursues the former, we can give you a graduation certificate and letter of introduction from Pearl Academy right now, allowing you to live that kind of life. Please don't take up a precious spot at Pearl Academy. Wealth and fame are not lacking; what we lack is an eternal heart that pursues the highest magic!"

Looking at Dean Xiao, who stood on the podium exuding an air of dominance, Jiang Shang glanced around and found that all the students present were filled with enthusiasm, wishing they could immediately step down and kick aside today's protagonist to become the demon themselves.

Perhaps many newcomers who just arrived here originally wanted to follow Jiang Shang's lead and keep a low profile by not participating in this beast fighting tournament.

But after what I just said, I'm afraid they'll all have to go down to the arena for a match!

Immediately afterward, the summoning students entered the competition venue amidst Dean Xiao's words.

Watching the five summoning students enter like protagonists, Fu Shaoquan, sitting behind Jiang Shang, said enviously, "If only I had awakened a summoning ability back then, I would definitely have been the star!"

"It's the same now. If you go down and pick a summoned beast to defeat it by yourself, you'll definitely be more famous than a summoning student," said a music student.

"That's right, how come I didn't think of that!" Fu Shaoquan slapped his thigh and got up to leave.

When he turned around, he found that he was the only one who had moved; the rest of the students were all sitting quietly in their seats.

Aren't you going?

"No, we're not going. Summoning magic is still dimensional magic, and our magic at the early stages isn't as powerful as lightning or fire magic. We'd have to coordinate with other magic types, and we can't win in a one-on-one fight," Jiang Shang said.

"Since that's the case, then I won't go either." Fu Shaoquan sat back down dejectedly.

After some discussion, a student who looked very confident went up on stage.

The boy with blond curly hair stood arrogantly on the arena, taunting the students in line, "Don't waste your time, come up here all at once, my Ghost Wolf Beast will take you all down!"

"Holy crap, that's so arrogant!"

"Brothers, kill him! (crossed out) Let's all go together and wipe out these arrogant summoners!"

The blond boy merely snorted at their words and then began to unleash his magic.

A moonlit star trail appeared around him, followed by what looked like a crescent moon slit tearing through space.

A spatial rift under the moonlight connected to a vast plane, and a hideous, dark blue head slowly emerged from the passage.

I forgot my keys when I went to the hospital, tried to pick the lock myself but failed, and lost 50 yuan.
