Versatile Mage: Starting from Obtaining the Blue and White Snakes

Chapter 93 Imprisonment, Epic Treasure Chest

There are still a few days until the awards ceremony.

The awards ceremony must be extremely grand; otherwise, wouldn't it make the competition between the world's top universities seem lacking in prestige?
Therefore, the preparation time should be at least six or seven days.

During this time, everyone has relaxed.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for winning the World University Competition! Reward: 2 Epic Treasure Chests]

"Two epic chests!"

Jiang Haoxuan's eyes lit up.

But before he could even open it, the mages from the Holy Tribunal came knocking on his door…

The Holy Judge standing in front said:
“Jiang Haoxuan…you killed two super-level mages on the beach before, we need you to come with us.”

Jiang Haoxuan had already anticipated this, but the other party's attitude made him very unhappy: "I acted in self-defense. The one who died was an assassin from the Assassin Hall. Don't talk to me like you're arresting a criminal."

"Boy, do you know who you're talking to!" the Holy Judgment Mage sneered. "If it weren't for your status, to avoid tarnishing the reputation of the world's top university champions, it wouldn't be us coming to invite you; the Holy Judgment Academy would have issued the summons directly!"

Another holy judge said in a deep voice:

"Our time is precious. Stop wasting time. If Judge Durank gets impatient, the consequences will be even more serious."

"That's right. Judge Durank is of such high status that it's an honor for you that he would personally intervene!"

"What does this have to do with Judge Durank?" Jiang Haoxuan asked, frowning, with a bad feeling.

"Stop talking nonsense and come with us!" one of the holy judges said in a deep voice.

Jiang Haoxuan said, "Let me change my clothes."

The Holy Judge glanced at Jiang Haoxuan, who was still in his pajamas, and snorted coldly:

"You have two minutes."

Jiang Haoxuan turned around and took two steps, then suddenly turned back and asked:
"What are your names?"

"Holy Judgement Mage Poli!"

"Holy Judgement Mage Paul!"

The two holy judges made no attempt to conceal that this was the greatest honor of their lives.

"Okay, I'll remember you."

"..."

The two holy judges laughed at Jiang Haoxuan's slightly angry tone.

Does this kid want revenge?
……

the other side.

Upon receiving news that Jiang Haoxuan had been forcibly taken away by the Holy Judgment Mage, the top leadership of China was furious.

Jiang Haoxuan's current status makes it no exaggeration to say that he is one of the most valued young geniuses in China.

The Holy Tribunal took the person away without giving any notice.

Shao Zheng, Han Ji, and the others were also extremely furious!
"The awards ceremony for the competition between academies is imminent, and the ceremony of the Divine Seal Praise is not far off. Doesn't the Holy Judgment Academy know how important this is to Jiang Haoxuan?" Han Ji said in a deep voice.

"Hmph! Don't let me find out they're deliberately blocking it!" Pang Lai sneered.

"What should we do now?"

"The old priest has received the news and is on his way to the temple."

"..."

……

To the west of the Alps stands a magnificent and ancient city.

This city is known as the City of Faith, the highest sanctuary sought by all mages!

Holy City!

Jiang Haoxuan, along with two holy judge mages, leaped down from a flying beast.

"Isn't this the Holy Tribunal?" Jiang Haoxuan asked, sounding puzzled.

"This is the highest hall of the Holy Tribunal, the Holy City!"

After saying that, the two holy judges led Jiang Haoxuan into the holy city.

At the very center of the Holy City, in the sacred temple, Jiang Haoxuan had expected to be taken in for interrogation.

Unexpectedly, the Holy Judge turned a corner and led him to a small, secluded courtyard...

"Wait here, Judge Durank will come to interrogate you personally." After saying this, the Holy Judge turned to leave.

"Didn't he say he had been waiting for me for a long time?" Jiang Haoxuan asked.

The Holy Judge ignored him.

Jiang Haoxuan spoke again:
"I didn't have breakfast."

"When someone comes, just give them the instructions!"

"..." After waiting for about three hours, Durant finally arrived.

Durant didn't waste any words and went straight to the point:

"Your current cultivation level is only at the high-level of three elements, how did you manage to kill two super-level mages?"

"I have my own trump card."

"What trump card?!"

"..."

Without saying a word, Jiang Haoxuan summoned Jiang Feng.

Durant glanced at Jiang Feng's strength and then ignored her.
"I believe you. Besides that, there are a few more things I need you to answer."

Before Jiang Haoxuan could respond, Durant continued:
"What was your purpose in going to the ancient capital? How did you learn Salang's true identity? And how did you survive?"

"What does this have to do with your Holy Judgment Council? I've already told the Ancient Capital Magic Association everything I needed to say," Jiang Haoxuan asked, frowning.

"Just answer the questions, no questions allowed!" Durank said in a deep voice.

That condescending tone is really annoying.

Jiang Haoxuan stared at him for several seconds before slowly speaking:

"I went to the ancient capital to save my friend Zhang Xiaohou. I learned about Salang's identity from Saint Azharia of Parthenon."

"As for how I survived the undead tide, you should know my strength."

"How was the catastrophe in the ancient capital resolved?" Durank stared into Jiang Haoxuan's eyes, his voice deepening.

"How would I know? Go ask that ancient king who has been resurrected in the Abyss of Fiends yourself," Jiang Haoxuan replied with a sneer.

After he finished speaking, an eerie silence fell over the room.

After a few breaths, Durank continued, "When can I leave?"

"There are still many questions about your situation, so I need to stay in the Holy City for a few days."

"What about the awards ceremony and the Divine Seal Praise ceremony for the competition between our universities?"

In response to Jiang Haoxuan's question, Dulan sneered: "Being able to stay in the Holy City is your greatest honor. You still care about such trivial things?!"

"Is this considered imprisonment?"

"The Holy City Academy will not wrong any innocent person, nor will it let any criminal go unpunished!"

"..."

……

Back in the villa.

“For the foreseeable future, you will be living here. You are free to move around the city, but you are not allowed to leave,” Durank said.

"Can I contact the outside world?"

"The Holy City is a sacred city, don't describe it in such a filthy way."

"I haven't said anything yet."

"..."

Upon learning of Jiang Haoxuan's whereabouts, Shao Zheng and other high-ranking officials of the National Government immediately led a group to visit him.

Although Jiang Haoxuan is currently under surveillance, he is relatively free except for not being allowed to leave the Holy City.

The National Government team was eager to see Jiang Haoxuan, but because they were not of high enough status, they could not enter the Holy City to visit him.

Even with Song Qiming present, they still encountered obstruction from the Grand Judge, Dulan.

Therefore, only Song Qiming and Shao Zheng, among others, came to visit.
"Did they use any methods against you?!" Han Ji was the first to inquire about Jiang Haoxuan's situation.

Jiang Haoxuan shook his head slightly and asked with a smile:

"President, did you bring what I asked for?"

Han Ji took out a spatial ring and handed it to Jiang Haoxuan, who briefly examined it with his mental sense.

The item inside the ring is none other than the Star Sea Celestial Vein!

"Speaker Shao Zheng and High Priest Song are already negotiating with the Holy City. It's a pity you'll have to stay there for a while," Han Ji sighed helplessly.
"Don't worry, the news about you staying in the Holy City hasn't spread. Although the Divine Seal Praise has been delayed, it won't be in arrears."

Jiang Haoxuan shook his head:
"This matter is no longer your concern."

"How can it be none of our business! You are the undisputed glory of China!" Han Ji said, frowning.

Jiang Haoxuan did not respond, but continued speaking to himself:
"President, do me another favor."

"You said."

"Go back to Hangzhou, China, and bring me something."

"..."
