Versatile Mage: Undying Fire

Chapter 104 World University Competition
"Have you heard that Mo Fan and Lin Ran are both selected players and have already secured places in the World Academy Competition?"

"That's nonsense. Our national team selects the strongest students from the national famous colleges, and then forms a team to compete with countries around the world. Mo Fan just made it into the top ten of the fire list in Mingzhu College. Even if he can make it into the top ten of the overall list, there will be competition from the top and second place students in other colleges. He would have to rank far behind. So I think it's impossible. As for Lin Ran, he probably has a little hope of entering the national team, but it's impossible for him to be selected internally."

"I think so too, but this news came from a reliable source."

"Reliable people, relevant departments, experts... these things are the most untrustworthy!"

The campus was suddenly filled with all kinds of news. Recently everyone was talking about Mo Fan making it into the top ten freshmen. Coupled with the news of the World University's confirmed quota, the news became even hotter.

Mo Fan and Lin Ran had originally been enjoying the awe of the freshmen and the respect of the seniors, but once this incident happened, the entire school seemed to have an infectious disease, with red eyes!

"If you praise him so highly and brag so loudly, sooner or later he will fall to his death!"

"They are the chosen ones? Not to mention that the masters from other schools can beat you up in a minute, even the masters from your own school can beat them like dogs!"

"This is the internal candidate, and he doesn't look that good, does he?"

Mo Fan was annoyed by the sounds of these demons and monsters. He really wanted to catch the bastard who leaked the information and beat him up. Compared to Mo Fan, Lin Ran was much calmer.

However, it also shows the importance of the quota. No matter those top masters who are scheming for this quota, or those who can only watch but are jealous, they all care very much about this World Academy Competition!

Come to think of it, it makes sense. Initiated by the Magic Associations of the five continents and jointly held by the famous schools around the world, the old wizards are reluctant to judge themselves by victory or defeat to avoid negative impact, but the young wizards are full of enthusiasm and hard work, so every session of the World Academy Competition is particularly exciting and attracts worldwide attention! !

Those children of the world racked their brains to stand out and make a name for themselves while they were in the academy. However, no matter how many strategies they came up with or how much support they received, it was not as good as participating in a World Academy Competition. Even if they were a substitute, the family that the substitute belonged to would prosper, and the power that they belonged to would soar!

In the past, all the major forces would have paid more attention to Mo Fan, who performed outstandingly in school. However, as soon as the news of the World Academy's internal candidates came out, Mo Fan and Lin Ran became very popular. Regardless of whether it was true or not, all the major forces were determined to get them!

As a result, there were red eyes in the school and green olive branches from outside the school, but Lin Ran and Mo Fan just wanted to be a quiet handsome man.

Anyway, Mo Fan didn't know until later that Chief Judge Tang Zhong was one of the people who decided on the list for the World Academy Competition.

What was particularly coincidental was that the voter of the Magic Palace had just retired, so the right to choose was given to the councillor Zhu Meng. As a councillor, Zhu Meng already had one vote, so the ruler of the Magic Palace, who had been scolded by Mo Fan several times, had two votes...

Generally speaking, if there are students on the list who get 4 votes of approval, they will basically be able to escape.

Tang Zong cast one vote for Mo Fan. Councillor Zhu Meng probably wanted to give the vote to Lin Ran in order to make up for his guilt of killing the Totem Black Snake. However, seeing that Lin Ran had a lot of votes, Zhu Meng gave two votes to Mo Fan, so Mo Fan had three votes.

Compared to Mo Fan, Lin Ran had more recommendations, including from the Inquisition, the military, the Magic Palace, and Mingzhu's Mage Tower, so the one who was actually chosen was Lin Ran.

As the World University Competition is about to begin selecting candidates, the top students from various domestic universities are still fighting hard for a nomination. Suddenly, they find out that someone has been selected, and the expressions on their faces are naturally extremely rich!
Even Dongfang Lielai, who ranked first on the Hot List, hasn’t even gotten the nomination right yet!!

……

As the cold air swept through the city, coughing sounds were heard everywhere. Perhaps the new cold germs were beginning to spread rampantly again.

"What are you doing? Aren't you cold? Why are you opening the window?" Ai Tutu leaned over and looked at Mo Fan's room in confusion. At this moment, Lin Ran and Mo Fan were looking at something.

"We are all fire-type people. There is a small stove next to us. The air is good when the window is open!" Mo Fan sat in front of the computer, scrolling through the web pages and casually checking out some recent sensational reports about the ancient capital. He and Lin Ran had received some news recently, so they were collecting information now.

This is a world full of disasters, with endless monsters and demons.

Seeing that Mo Fan was actually concerned about national affairs, Ai Tutu couldn't help but make a few sarcastic remarks.

Lin Ran sat aside and exchanged information with others.

Mo Fan turned off the computer and turned his gaze to Ai Tutu. He glanced at her big breasts that were about to burst out without leaving a trace, and then continued seriously, "You just said that at the end of the semester, the top 20 people in each department ranking will be eligible to participate in the World University Competition nomination preliminaries?"

"Well, you haven't seen Sister Mu in seclusion for a long time." Ai Tutu said.

"Her strength is improving very quickly." Mo Fan nodded.

Mu Nujiao is a woman who is admirable when it comes to fighting. I have seen her every now and then in the past few months, and every time I meet her, she takes the initiative to challenge me to a sparring match.

The huge power behind Mu Nujiao must have finally made up their minds to support her in entering the World Academy Competition. Not only does she possess two top-grade spiritual seeds, but she also has luxurious magic tools. Ai Tutu even said that Mu Nujiao has a trump card that she has never shown before, and she will shine in the competition for a place in the World Academy Competition.

This made Mo Fan look forward to it.

Come to think of it, Mu Nujiao is backed by the Mu family, the most powerful of the four major families in Magic City, and they will fight for this important position no matter what.

Similarly, as a consortium-level Zhao family...

Zhao Manyan has changed his usual behavior and has been absent from public view all day for secret training.

Zhao Manyan probably won't take the college's quota, but to get a quota through other means, he will need to work several times harder than an ordinary person.

Regardless of whether there is a powerful force behind you or not, the competitors are as numerous as the sea. If you don't have the ability to shock the crowd, it is impossible to break through the siege...

It can be said that for the sake of a spot in the World University Competition, anyone with intentions has basically become a cultivator madman.

And Ai Tutu...

She is the eldest daughter of a wealthy family, with big breasts and no ambitions, she lives a very comfortable life, but because her best friend has devoted herself to hard training in public, she is now bored all day long.

Mo Fan and Lin Ran were both selected candidates. They didn’t have to participate in the nomination contest...

Everyone around was busy practicing, except Mo Fan, so Ai Tutu probably came to stick to Mo Fan, hoping that he could find some fun for her and take a look at what Lin Ran was busy with.

"I suggest that you and Lin Ran still participate in this nomination competition." Ai Tutu herself will not participate, but she knows a lot about this matter.

"Why?" Mo Fan asked.

Lin Ran also looked at Ai Tutu.

"Mo Fan has three votes, which is no different from the internal selection, but four votes are needed for the final confirmation. Getting nominated through the competition is equivalent to winning a vote yourself. This way, no one can shake your place, and you won't be gossiped about. As for Lin Ran, although he got four votes, it's not bad to participate in the competition." Ai Tutu said. In fact, she wanted to see Lin Ran beat people up. There were a lot of people saying bad things about Lin Ran now, so it wasn't bad to let Lin Ran teach those blind people a lesson.

Mo Fan nodded, thinking that what Ai Tutu said made sense. He looked at Lin Ran and said, "Let's join together."

"Whatever." Lin Ran said.

Not everyone knows how Lin Ran and Mo Fan got their votes. Even those who know would say it was just luck, so many people are dissatisfied with them. Mo Fan and Lin Ran like to fight. The nomination contest must be a battle between the strongest people in the entire school. How can they not step on a few blind people?

……

Battle for nominations!

Pearl Academy has a total of ten nomination rights. After nomination, there will be about two rounds of selection before the members are finally finalized.

The nomination competition this time is very simple. It is to gather the top 20 people from each department and directly fight round after round...

Interestingly, the nomination competition was not a one-on-one battle. The Academy adopted a randomly shuffled 4V4 format.

Each student participating in the nomination competition will form a temporary team with three other students who are also participating in the nomination competition. This team will have three competitions with other teams.

Although winning or losing also determines whether the student will be nominated, losing does not mean there is no hope.

The overall ranking of the academy is not determined by the competition between the academies. There are restraints between departments. In addition, everyone is an intermediate mage and only has two series of magic. Some defense and healing systems are forever. It is impossible to have a high ranking, but the defense and healing systems are the key among mages...

Therefore, the nomination competition held by the college is four people against four people. Each competition has three referees. The referees have 8 points. It doesn’t matter whether they win or lose, but those who perform well will get high points.

Those with the highest final scores will be selected for nomination, and a dean-level figure will finalize the 10 nominees.

Nomination means that the contestant receives one vote.

Generally, four votes are needed to secure a place in a world university. How to obtain the other three votes involves too many considerations. Whether it is support from aristocratic families, support from the association, or tacit approval from the military... it all depends on the student's strength and charm!

Mo Fan now has three tickets, but these three tickets were given to him out of kindness, plus he was lucky...

Therefore, getting this nomination right is also very important for him.

The game mechanism of group fighting made Mo Fan and Lin Ran excited.

A one-on-one duel is fun, but everyone is using magic to blast each other, and it usually depends on who has higher skills and better equipment.

The World University Competition is obviously a team event, so the nominations will definitely test the team's combat capabilities.

……

Ai Tutu has become Lin Ran's little tail. She loves the hustle and bustle the most and knows that it will be fun to follow Mo Fan and Lin Ran, so she actively signs up for Mo Fan and Lin Ran, and then draws lots for them...

a few days later.

Lin Ran sat in the audience and yawned as he watched Ai Tutu pretend to be Mo Fan to participate in the competition.

"Are you from Team 11?" said a male student among the three.

"Ah!? I recognize you, you are Gu Jian, the handsome guy from Lei Academy!" As soon as Ai Tutu saw the male student, his eyes lit up.

The man named Gu Jian had a stiff expression on his face, and he looked Ai Tutu up and down.

Gu Jian has seen a lot of beautiful women and plump women. He is not interested in women now... Oh, no, his mind is full of how to get the nomination recently. Even if this woman takes off all her clothes and puts her in his bed, he will concentrate on practicing abstaining from sex!

Gu Jian's first impression of Ai Tutu was not very good. He was worried that he was just a vase. If he lost the first competition, it would have a bad impact on everyone. Even if the victory or defeat did not matter, only if he won could he show his excellence!
"Now that everyone is here, let's first tell each other what department you are from." Gu Jian said to the other three people with the attitude of a captain.

"Um..." Ai Tutu was only here to replace Mo Fan. Now that Mo Fan had gone to the Three-Step Pagoda to practice in seclusion, she naturally had to explain things clearly.

Gu Jian frowned immediately and said, "Are you from Team 11? If not, don't waste our time. We still need to train."

"...this...yes, yes." Ai Tutu said hurriedly.

Ai Tutu had heard of Gu Jian's name a long time ago, because not long ago, her aunt acted as a matchmaker for the Gu family and asked her to meet the young master of the Gu family during the Chinese New Year...

It was said to be a meeting, but in fact it was a blind date.

This is very common in aristocratic families. Ai Tutu has reached the age to get married, but she is not serious about her cultivation and plays around all day long. Her family has long wanted to marry her off so that she can focus more.

Unfortunately, Gu Jian was the person that the family had chosen as their favorite. Ai Tutu had never expected that Mo Fan would be assigned to the same group with this guy who might be her fiancé.

This man is very handsome, powerful, and a leader in the Lei Academy. In every aspect, he meets Ai Tutu's requirements. Although Lin Ran is better, Ai Tutu knows that it is difficult for him and Lin Ran to be together...

"What department are you in?" Gu Jian asked.

"I majored in botany and minored in light." Ai Tutu replied quickly.

"Oh, that's not bad. Our team has no shortage of destruction magic." Gu Jian's expression looked a little better.

"Then let's start training. It's always better to be a little prepared."

"Okay, let's cooperate!"

Ai Tutu also said with a smile on his face: "Happy cooperation."

Lin Ran felt bored so he closed his eyes to rest. When he heard someone arguing, he opened his eyes and saw a young man slapping Ai Tutu in the face.

Lin Ran rushed to the young man in an instant, grabbed his hand and kicked him away.

Lin Ran's eyes fell on Ai Tutu, who was in tears, and he said, "What's wrong, little rabbit?"

Ai Tutu hugged Lin Ran and started crying. She was really scared just now. Gu Jian’s temper frightened her.

Gu Jian's eyes fell on Lin Ran. Just now, Lin Ran broke several of his bones with a kick. He staggered to his feet and said, "This stupid woman doesn't know how to fight at all. If she hadn't used magic randomly, we would have won."

"Oh, sorry...she is a little stupid." Lin Ran said.

Gu Jian was so angry after hearing Lin Ran's careless apology that he said, "Let her kneel down and apologize, and I will forgive her."
