Full-Time Mage: One random forbidden spell per month

Chapter 9 Solo Training Mission? I'm going to flip the table!

Zhan Kong ignored the students' insults, glaring at them fiercely: "Tianlan High School claims to be the best school in Bocheng, but it turns out it only produced a bunch of good-for-nothings!!"

"Of course, I will personally award a reward to the team that completes the bounty. The reward is a defensive magical item."

Zhan Kong raised his voice again and continued.

Defensive magical artifacts!!

Even the cheapest defensive magic item costs hundreds of thousands!

A commotion erupted as all the students stared blankly at the instructor who had just turned the tide.

Defensive magical artifacts are very attractive to them, since they don't come from a family like the Mu family, where a single defensive magical artifact is already considered very expensive.

Furthermore, even the Mu family doesn't just casually produce a defensive magical artifact.

Li Xingze raised an eyebrow. If it was just a Ghost Wolf Beast, it would be too easy for him.

Getting a defensive magic item for free is great.

Just then, Zhan Kong, who had been talking loudly, suddenly fixed his gaze on him and said in a deep voice, "To be fair, I have other plans for Li Xingze, who has awakened the summoning system."

"???"

Upon hearing this, Li Xingze was stunned. What the hell? They were giving him special treatment.

Is this what you call fair?

However, this is indeed something that Zhan Kong is capable of doing.

Mo Fan and the others stared blankly at Instructor Zhan Kong.

They weren't fools; they understood perfectly well that the instructor was clearly worried that Li Xingze's summoned beast would affect the training.

Of course, some people were very happy, because with Li Xingze gone as a competitor, their chances of obtaining defensive magical artifacts would be much greater.

Zhan Kong naturally noticed everyone's gaze, but he didn't care. If these fledglings didn't go through some trials and tribulations, how could they become powerful mages?

"Alright, get ready and set off in your respective groups." Zhan Kong waved his hand, dismissing everyone in a casual tone.

Under the teacher's arrangement, the students left in groups, except for Li Xingze.

After the teachers and students left, Zhan Kong walked up to Li Xingze and suddenly said, "Summoning is quite good, but without the support of a powerful force, it's difficult to unleash its full potential."

"How about it? Want to join me? I'll figure out a contracted beast for you."

Li Xingze was caught off guard by Zhan Kong's words; it turned out he wanted to invite Zhan Kong to join the military.

Unfortunately, Li Xingze preferred his freedom and didn't want to join any faction. Besides, with so many forbidden scrolls in his possession, wouldn't it be crazy for him to become someone else's subordinate?

"Instructor, you left me behind alone. I wonder what task you're planning to assign me?" Li Xingze said calmly.

Zhan Kong keeping him around definitely wasn't for any special treatment; there would be plenty of training missions for him.

Moreover, it might be even more difficult than the training missions of others.

Seeing that Li Xingze did not answer him, Zhan Kong was not angry.

If young people aren't spirited, what kind of young people are they?

"I've looked into your summoned beast; its bloodline is quite strong. Ordinary demons are definitely no match for you." Zhan Kong took a few more steps closer. "With your talent, reaching a high level in the future isn't impossible."

Li Xingze scoffed inwardly. High-level? You're looking down on me!

"Instructor, stop with this nonsense. This training isn't really necessary for me, and I don't need to put up with your difficult behavior."

Li Xingze didn't bother with formalities and spoke frankly.

Upon hearing this, Zhan Kong frowned. This kid has quite a personality.

Zhan Kong naturally wouldn't get angry with a student, and said with interest, "Making things difficult? What makes you think I'm making things difficult for you?"

Li Xingze chuckled lightly, looking at the burly figure and said calmly, "You kept me behind alone, isn't that making things difficult for me?"

"Without these achievements, I can simply not take the Magic College Entrance Examination and still get into Pearl Academy through special admissions."

"That's interesting. You even know about special admissions."

Zhan Kong was increasingly surprised as he looked at Li Xingze; this guy didn't seem like a high school student at all.

Even when facing him, she remains so rational; her future is limitless!

Li Xingze rolled his eyes and said, "Do you think a phone is just for decoration? You can't find out this with a simple check. Summoning, spatial, and curse magic are all within the special admissions scope of Pearl Academy."

"But I remember there was another requirement for this special recruitment, which was that one's cultivation level had to reach the third level of the initial stage."

Zhan Kong used his spiritual power to probe his cultivation level, which was actually at the second level of the initial stage, which was somewhat unexpected.

Even so, he didn't think Li Xingze could raise the Summoning system to the third level of the initial stage within a year, as the Summoning system was more difficult to cultivate than other systems.

"That has nothing to do with the instructors," Li Xingze said calmly.

With the Holy Spring at his disposal, why would he worry about not being able to advance to the third level of the initial stage?

Moreover, the calamity in Bocheng will only last a year, at which time all students of Tianlan High School will be able to choose to take a year off from school.

With two years, are you still worried about not being able to break through to the intermediate level?

Seeing how stubborn this guy was, Zhan Kong had no choice but to soften his tone, "How about this, as long as you complete the training mission, I will also give you a defensive magic tool."

"I won't do it."

Li Xingze refused decisively; he didn't believe that Zhan Kong would kindly prepare an easy task for him.

Zhan Kong's face darkened. Even a defensive magic item couldn't tempt him; his appetite was a bit too big.

"A demon-slaying tool," Zhan Kong said through gritted teeth, having really gone all out this time.

But it's all worth it. As long as this guy suffers, let's see if he'll still join the military!

Li Xingze raised an eyebrow; this demon-slaying tool was far more valuable than any defensive demon-slaying tool.

But he already had alchemical weapons, so the low-level demon-slaying tools were completely useless, only good for exchanging for a little money.

"If it's a Stardust Magic Artifact, and it has to be a brand new one, then I can consider it," Li Xingze said.

For now, the Stardust Magic Artifact is still the most important thing to him.

He had already spent almost all of his bounty money earned that year just on renting Stardust Magical Tools.

Zhan Kong was taken aback by Li Xingze's outrageous demand. Good heavens, a mere ordinary-grade Stardust Magic Artifact is worth over five million, which is equivalent to two or three Demon Slayer Tools.

"Do you think my money comes from thin air? There's absolutely no way I'd make a new Stardust Magic Weapon." Zhan Kong shook his head.

In a big city like Shanghai, he could earn tens of millions just by offering a bounty.

But this is Bo City, and he has so many mages under his command. They are usually very frugal and can't bear to buy a single magical tool all year round.

Seeing this, Li Xingze simply walked silently toward the school bus.

"This guy."

Zhan Kong was completely impressed by Li Xingze; it's true that no one gets up early for nothing.

He felt this guy was more suited to be a businessman than a mage!
