Full-Time Magister: The Path to Invincibility

Chapter 96 Beast Fighting Tournament

"Great, everyone's here!"

A bespectacled man who looked very knowledgeable stepped into the classroom, saw the three people below, and nodded in satisfaction.

"I'm actually a history teacher here as a substitute teacher. There aren't any teachers specializing in curses at the Qing campus. Our Pearl School has never had many students in the curses department, and last year we didn't have a single student! So this classroom is a bit dirty and messy. In the future, we'll mostly be having classes with other students from the dark magic department."

"Oh, right, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name is Fan Wuming, you can just call me Teacher Fan," Fan Wuming introduced himself.

"Our curse system's teaching is actually different from that of the elemental magic system. Most of it is theoretical knowledge, and you have to figure most things out on your own. Our school can only provide you with some ideas."

"So there aren't many classes, and you can spend your free time visiting other magic departments."

"As for our school's traditional welcome event, the Beast Fighting Tournament..." Teacher Fan paused, "Theoretically speaking, it has nothing to do with our Curse Department. You can go and watch if you're curious, and if your cultivation reaches the intermediate level, you can participate..."

"Teacher, why can only those with intermediate cultivation levels participate in the competition?" the slightly overweight man asked, raising his hand.

"Because Pearl Academy has clear rules that curse magic cannot be used in the Beast Fighting Tournament! Curse magic is forbidden, so where do you get your combat power if you're not a mid-level mage?"

Teacher Fan smiled and asked in return.

"Everyone here is a sensible person; the power of curse magic needs no further explanation. You only need to cast spells targeting the summoner, and the opponent will basically have no power to resist. This is too unfair to summoners!"

"No wonder I've never seen a curse mage in the annual beast fighting tournament!" the slightly chubby man exclaimed in realization, then added with a touch of regret, "Alas, it's a pity my cultivation level isn't high enough; I have no sense of participation at all."

"Alright, that's all for today's lesson. The three of you can get to know each other and maybe even become friends. I have to go now!" Teacher Fan closed her lesson plan and left the classroom.

…………

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Lin Tianhao, a mid-level curse mage, second element Earth!" the slightly chubby man said with a grin, extending his hand.

"Ling Tianyu, mid-level dual-type plant and curse element!" Ling Tianyu reached out and shook hands with Lin Tianhao.

"Brother, you're pretty good! Mid-level dual-elemental skill, you're no worse than us locals from Shanghai!" Lin Tianhao exclaimed in surprise.

The aloof girl glanced at Ling Tianyu with some surprise and said calmly, "Zu Linglong, Curse type, mid-level fire type."

"How come a fire-type girl ended up in the curse type? And you, Ling Tianyu, there are more people in the plant type, the girls there... tsk tsk tsk! They're all so pretty!" The slightly chubby boy didn't hold back at all.

"It's okay, I can change my major later anyway. I just came out of curiosity, but I didn't expect it to be so deserted." Ling Tianyu shrugged and said.

"Hey, hey, Sister Zu, could you please give me your contact information..." The slightly chubby man saw Zu Linglong get up to leave, so he shamelessly approached her, only to be rebuffed as expected.

"Are you from the Zu family? Why did you come to Shanghai?" Ling Tianyu asked curiously.

"I didn't like the atmosphere in the capital, so I came here," Zu Linglong replied in her usual cold tone.

"Alright!" There was no point in chatting with this ice block, so Ling Tianyu got up and left.

…………

The Qingdou Hall was built in a very grand manner, with a space even larger than a football field, providing mages with ample room to hide.

This place is usually used as a duel arena for mages, but now it is shrouded in a huge protective cage to prevent accidental injury to the students on the viewing platform.

The dueling arena was surrounded by tiered seating, densely packed, easily accommodating 10,000 people, demonstrating the wealth and power of Mingzhu Academy.

Around 3 p.m., male and female freshmen took their seats one after another. There were couples sitting together, as well as close friends and besties.

The vast majority of freshmen had a light in their eyes that shone with "confidence." After all, those who could get into Mingzhu University were all outstanding individuals, one in a million, and naturally they had a sense of pride in their hearts.

Why should the summoners be allowed to trample on them? Today, they are the main characters!

Each magic system had its own spot. Ling Tianyu looked around, found the Curse system's spot, sat down, and looked with interest at the several Summoning system freshmen standing on the dueling platform at the bottom.

This year, there are eight new students in the Summoning Department, four boys and four girls. Some of them looked timid, probably intimidated by the huge crowd in the audience, while others were full of confidence and had enough faith in their summoned beasts.

…………

Ling Tianyu belongs to the dark magic faction, which is quite far from the fire magic faction.

However, Ding Yumin's quiet temperament always makes her the center of attention, no matter where she is. After looking around, her gaze settled on the fifth-tier seat opposite, where a girl was pestering Ding Yumin and saying something to her.

Ding Yumin seemed to sense something, raised her eyes to look across the room, and easily spotted Ling Tianyu sitting alone. She smiled knowingly.

The chilling aura emanating from him kept most freshmen at a distance, and coupled with the eeriness of his curse-related nature, most students harbored some prejudice and apprehension.

As for the other two members of the Curse faction, they seemed uninterested in the occasion, so only Ling Tianyu from the entire faction was present, making his absence particularly noticeable in the crowded viewing platform.

…………

In this atmosphere, the beast fighting tournament began.

"Before I begin my speech, I want to make one thing clear. If you want a peaceful life, to cower in the shadows and seek wealth and luxury within the Anjie (a fictional world), then I can tell you all with certainty that you've come to the wrong place!"

"Magicians who graduate from Pearl Academy are undoubtedly among the best in their respective fields—the military, the Magic Association, the Hunter's Alliance, government agencies… I can tell you with absolute certainty that graduates from Pearl Academy make up a significant proportion of the student body!"

Despite his advanced age, Dean Xiao still spoke with great vigor, and his words revealed the fundamental educational philosophy of Mingzhu Academy.

"Students graduating from our prestigious university will undoubtedly possess the power to change the world in the future!"

Hearing Dean Xiao's words, all the freshmen were completely ignited with fighting spirit. Who didn't want to master powerful magic? Who didn't want to "annihilate demons with a laugh"?

This beast fighting tournament will definitely be my stage to showcase myself!

Regardless of what the future holds, at least for now, these spirited young people are pursuing the highest magical power!

Ling Tianyu couldn't help but admire Dean Xiao's ability to mobilize students; in this way, the emotions of the vast majority of students were stirred up.
