Full-Time Magister: Rebirth of Mo Fan as the Primordial Evil Phoenix

Mu Bai stood below the stage, arms crossed, waiting to see the spectacle unfold. He had already bribed someone to place a hidden stone beneath the Star-Sensing Stone. As long as Mo Fan channeled his magical energy into it, the hidden stone would absorb all the light. Mo Fan would be doomed today.

Mo Fan walked to the front of the stage and placed his palm on the Star Sensing Stone.

The stone surface was a little cool.

He closed his eyes. In his mental world, the mutated dark red stardust suddenly pulsed.

Evil Flame! It was too violent. Normally, suppressing it inside his body was like carrying a bomb. Now, it finally had an outlet. This violent magical energy flowed down his arm and poured into the Star-Sensing Stone without reservation.

hum!

The star-sensing stone suddenly lit up. It wasn't the bright red of a normal flame, but a dark red tinged with black. The light was incredibly bright, like a red-hot steel needle piercing everyone's eyes.

Immediately afterwards, a crisp cracking sound came from under the platform.

"Click"

That was the hidden stone Mu Bai had concealed there; it didn't even last half a second before shattering into pieces.

But this is only the beginning.

The dark light grew stronger, and suddenly a crack appeared on the surface of the star-sensing stone. The crack expanded rapidly, spreading across the entire stone like a spider web.

"Snap!"

The Star Stone shattered.

The raging magical energy, now unhindered, poured directly into the conduction array at the bottom.

That was a high-strength steel base used to support and stabilize magical energy. At that moment, a piercing metallic scraping sound emanated from within the base. Then, with a deafening "bang," the entire magical base exploded!

Black smoke billowed out. The smell of burnt wires and the pungent odor of quartz powder instantly filled the air. Broken parts were scattered everywhere, one of which hit Xue Musheng's leather shoe directly.

The entire room fell silent.

The wind blew across the playground, swirling up a few scraps of paper on the ground. A thousand people seemed frozen in place, their jaws agape, almost touching the floor, unable to utter a sound.

The examiner's pen fell to the ground.

Xue Musheng stood frozen in place, his glasses slipping down to the tip of his nose.

Mu Bai, sitting in the audience, stared wide-eyed, cold sweat instantly pouring down his face. He knew perfectly well that he had bribed someone to sabotage things beforehand. But he couldn't fathom what level of magical energy could possibly cause the steel-forged base array to explode! Even a normal person who gets an S-rank might just have a slightly brighter glow than others. This was an explosion!

In the dead silence, Mo Fan abruptly pulled his hand back.

He looked at the pile of black-smoking scrap iron and the shattered Star Sensing Stone, and his heart skipped a beat.

"Oh no, oh no..." Mo Fan's mind raced, calculating, "How much does this thing cost? If I don't pay for it, will Principal Zhu drag me to feed the demon wolves? Or should I just sell myself to Teacher Tang Yue to warm her bed?"

No, I absolutely cannot go with them!

Just when everyone thought the genius who caused the strange phenomenon was about to strike some unfathomable pose, Mo Fan jumped back a step.

He pointed at the pile of scrap metal and yelled, "Damn it! Professor Xue, did the school's purchasing department take kickbacks?! What kind of cheap junk did they buy? It's leaking electricity!"

Everyone in the room shuddered at his shout.

Mo Fan raised his right hand, shaking it with lingering fear: "You almost blew my hand out of shape! I'm a flower of the motherland, a rising star of the magic world! If you've injured my hand and delayed my becoming a mid-level mage, can you afford to compensate me? The school must reimburse my medical expenses, and also pay for my emotional distress!"

Xue Musheng opened his mouth, but after a long pause, he managed to stammer out, "You...you get down first."

On the distant stands, a fine layer of cold sweat instantly appeared on Mu Ningxue's smooth forehead. She stared intently at Mo Fan, her embroidered eyebrows tightly furrowed.

Just as the base of the magic circle exploded, she suddenly trembled and clutched her chest.

Others couldn't sense it, but she could.

The "Ice Crystal Fiend Bow" deep within her soul, which she had never been able to fully control, had just moved.

That was the most primal connection between the ultimate elements. Like a stray wolf suddenly encountering a wolf king leading a complete pack. It was a resonance and tremor originating from the depths of the soul. The Ice Crystal Fiend Bow trembled with fear and excitement at the same time.

"What exactly did he awaken?" For the first time, a strong desire to explore ignited in Mu Ningxue's beautiful, usually calm, eyes.

Finally, someone by the examination platform realized what was happening.

"Cheating! It's definitely cheating!" someone shouted from the crowd. "He must have been carrying something forbidden that can break the magic array. Teacher Xue's grade can't be counted!"

The students began to whisper among themselves. After all, blowing up the equipment was just too outrageous.

"Tap, tap, tap"

The sound wasn't loud, but it was rhythmic. A scent of perfume, characteristic of a mature woman, wafted over, masking the pungent, burnt smell in the air.

"Since the equipment is broken, let's just test for release."

Tang Yue pushed through the crowd and stepped out. Today, she was wearing a tight-fitting black business suit that accentuated her stunning figure. Sunlight shone on her fair face, exuding an undeniable air of authority.

Xue Musheng quickly made way: "Teacher Tang Yue, this..."

"Practice makes perfect," Tang Yue said, stepping to the front of the stage and pointing to the test puppet ten meters away. "Mo Fan, use your fire magic to hit it. If you hit it, you pass."

Mo Fan didn't waste any words. He turned around and faced the puppet.

A heatwave erupted from him. The surrounding students recoiled from the scalding heat.

There were no unnecessary movements, no lengthy preparations.

The seven stars instantly aligned in a straight line in Mo Fan's mental world. A dark red flame rapidly compressed from his palm.

"Fire - Burn!"

Mo Fan waved his hand casually.

The dark red ball of fire, like a cannonball, hurtled towards the puppet ten meters away.

"boom!"

Flames rose from the sky. It was no ordinary burning; it was an extremely explosive and devastating attack.

The specially made thick-skinned puppet couldn't withstand the heat for even a second, collapsing completely in the high temperature. The original puppet turned into a pool of blackish-gray powder, leaving not a single piece of wood behind.

The entire hall fell silent once more. This time, not even a breath could be heard.

All the students stared at the pile of black ash as if it were a monster. They didn't understand; they simply assumed it was because Mo Fan's fire magic was powerful.

But Tang Yue, who was standing to the side and behind Mo Fan, couldn't help but slightly part her red lips, and her full chest heaved violently.

As an elite member of the Inquisition and a mid-level mage skilled in both fire and shadow magic, her perception of elemental energy far surpassed that of everyone else present.

Just now, the instant Mo Fan made his move, she clearly felt the fire nebula within her body... actually tremble with fear and submission!

"It wasn't due to outdated equipment at all..." Tang Yue stared intently at Mo Fan's retreating figure, her heart churning with shock. "The low-grade Star Sensing Stone base simply couldn't withstand his domineering and heavy infusion of magical energy! That's why it was forcibly burst!"

What shocked her even more was the fleeting dark red light she had just seen.

Without the aid of any magical artifacts, it instantly melted the specially made puppet on its first release. This is definitely no ordinary fire!

"A naturally occurring spirit seed... or even a flame of a higher level than a spirit seed!" Tang Yue's gaze towards Mo Fan completely changed. It was no longer the look of a teacher looking at a student, but the look of a seasoned mage who had seen a rare treasure, filled with intense curiosity and undisguised admiration.

"Teacher Tang...Teacher Tang Yue?" Xue Musheng swallowed, breaking the silence. "How should these grades be calculated?"

The students who had just shouted about cheating fell silent. If a magic circle could be used to cheat, surely magic cast barehanded couldn't be?

Tang Yue suppressed her inner shock and walked up to Mo Fan in her high heels.

As she drew closer, the unique fragrance of a mature woman once again wafted into Mo Fan's nostrils.

Tang Yue ignored the others and instead gave Mo Fan a deep look, a hint of cunning and amusement flashing in her foxy eyes.

"There's no need to calculate this at all." Tang Yue turned around, facing the entire grade, and announced in a clear and authoritative voice, "Mo Fan, your control over the stars is perfect, and your magic casting power is excellent! First place in the annual assessment!"

The entire grade was in an uproar, and Zhao Kunsan's legs went weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground.

After making the announcement, Tang Yue turned her head again, and even leaned down slightly to whisper in Mo Fan's ear.

A warm breath mixed with a fragrant breeze brushed against Mo Fan's cheek. Tang Yue whispered softly, her breath sweet as orchids, in a voice only the two of them could hear: "A dark red flame from a naturally born spirit seed, right? Little guy, you've been hiding it well."

Mo Fan raised an eyebrow, about to speak, but Tang Yue had already straightened up, leaving him with a seductive back view and a meaningful cryptic message: "Come to my office after the assessment. I have many 'personal issues' that I'd like to discuss with you in depth."
