Full-Time Mage: Double Return, Niu Ma Mo Fan

Chapter 28: Giving the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce the Green Light! The Black Tortoise and the Flame Sparrow!

"That's all you've seen. As for the fighting style, what's the point? The capital city has already lost, so we don't have a chance to play. Old Meng is still too abnormal. He used water-type moves in two consecutive matches and defeated his opponent in one move. Even our own people from Mingzhu who have already played didn't have a chance to show off. He's the only one standing out." Zhao Manyan shrugged.

"Something's not right. Why is Lao Meng being so unusually enthusiastic today?" Mo Fan asked, puzzled.

"Who knows? Maybe they're just unhappy with the Imperial Academy and want to teach them a lesson. It's just bad luck that the Imperial Academy ran into Old Meng. I reckon they won't be able to get over this for many years."

Zhao Manyan commented, feeling both the helplessness of not being able to play and the excitement of Mingzhu's rise, as he was also a member of Mingzhu!

……

The news spread quickly, and when the news of Mingzhu Academy's sweeping victory over other academies in the capital was relayed back to the school, the school leaders were somewhat incredulous.

Dean Xiao and Zhou Zhenghua fell silent for a long time after hearing the details reported by Professor Gu Han.

"Go and investigate the background of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce. As long as they are not some kind of dark force, give them the green light all the way in Shanghai." Dean Xiao's face was full of a gratified smile.

Since Meng Qiuzhen is working so hard, how could the dean let his students down?

……

“Next, you will go to the outside of Anjie for training. There will be no protection measures during this training, so if you encounter danger, no one will save you,” Teacher Li Jing said.

"No protection at all??"

"We will give you a light magic signal pen. If you are trapped there, we will send someone to rescue you, provided you are alive."

"This"

The expressions of everyone else froze, while Meng Qiuzhen seemed distracted.

He was thinking about how to maximize his profits from this Jinlin training trip, and he needed a large amount of funds to give the Chamber of Commerce a boost.
“In previous years, there have been deaths and injuries during the university training program. In short, I hope that you will not slack off at all when you step into the training, and do not do anything risky. You may think that even if you encounter a few demons, you can easily deal with them, but I want to tell you: don’t think things are that simple!” Teacher Gu Han said very seriously at this time.

The teachers were all unusually calm, and the trainees naturally understood that this experience was no joke.

"This training has a general direction, and we will inform you when the time comes. If you are in the capital, and if you or your family have some savings, it is best to buy a good defensive magic item, which may save your life."

After announcing the details of the training, Meng Qiuzhen returned to her room.

He channeled a massive amount of summoning magic energy into the two eggs, and the runes on the eggshells suddenly flickered.

"Click~~~"

"Click!!!"

Both eggs cracked at the same time!

……

In the training ground.

A sturdy creature with long, elegant black fur, its body is graceful and powerful, and the heels of its limbs are moon-white, making it look as if it is walking on moon clouds, giving people a feeling of lightness and agility.

"Haha, well done, Old Wolf!" Mo Fan exclaimed excitedly, sensing the aura of a warrior-level expert.

His Shadow Wolf Beast has successfully advanced!

"Swift Star Wolf!!" Teacher Qiu Yuhua exclaimed the creature's name, her face showing a hint of excitement. "It's actually a Swift Star Wolf, the most agile subspecies among wolves!"

"Mo Fan, you've successfully advanced?" Teacher Gu Han looked at Mo Fan in astonishment.

The two teachers witnessed this scene as soon as they arrived.

Just then, Meng Qiuzhen entered the training ground through the already open door and saw the Warrior-level Swift Star Wolf as well.

"Oh? The Ghost Wolf Beast has successfully advanced? It looks pretty good," Meng Qiuzhen praised.

"Is this Meng Qiuzhen? Don't you usually prefer to stay in your room? What brings you here today?" Qiu Yuhua asked while admiring Ji Xinglang, noting that it was rare to see him out.

"How about it, Lao Meng? Isn't my Swift Star Wolf cool?" Mo Fan twitched his nose. Now he also had a War General-level summoned beast, and his combat power had increased exponentially. It was hard not to be happy.

“They’re quite handsome.” Meng Qiuzhen nodded. “By the way, Professor Qiu, I recently acquired two pets, but I can’t figure out their pedigrees, so I’m asking you to take a look.”

"Oh? Where is it? I'll go take a look later." Teacher Qiu Yuhua agreed without hesitation to Meng Qiuzhen's request. After all, this guy had brought honor to Mingzhu, so giving him some face was acceptable.

"No need to go anywhere else, I've already brought it."

Where is it?

Before Qiu Yuhua could finish speaking, Meng Qiuzhen made a single slash with his hand, and a silvery-white crack appeared.

The next moment, a small bird, about the size of a palm, with fiery red feathers, landed lightly on Meng Qiuzhen's shoulder.

In his outstretched palm lay a small black tortoise with faint blue markings.

"Ugh!!!!!"

A roar echoed through the training room, and the Swift Star Wolf leaped backward, baring its sharp white teeth as if facing a formidable enemy!

Those wolf eyes were fixed on Meng Qiuzhen, or more accurately, on the two little ones beside him.

The Swift Star Wolf sensed the warrior-level aura emanating from these two little guys!

And it's one of the strongest among the warrior-level generals!!

If it can sense it, then everyone else present can naturally sense it as well.

"Holy crap!!!" Mo Fan was the first to exclaim, "Three elements? Old Meng, you've reached a high level?!?!"

The two teachers present also stared at him in shock.

How old is he? High-level? Why don't you become a teacher yourself!

Gu Han is even considering retiring on the spot.
"Haha, don't be nervous, he's not even at the high level yet. If Mo Fan can have multiple elements, why can't I?" Meng Qiuzhen's question left Mo Fan speechless.

Is this some kind of joke? Not only is he strong and talented, but he also possesses summoning abilities! Mo Fan felt his future position was in jeopardy.
However, recalling Meng Qiuzhen's slacking-off personality, he instantly felt much more at ease.

If you're more diligent than this lazybones, you might still have a chance to play.
Unlike Mo Fan's focus, Qiu Yuhua gasped upon seeing the two little creatures! "These are the baby pets you were talking about? Battle General level baby pets?! My god! Baby pets can be Battle General level???"

Do students these days all have warrior-level summoned beasts?
What kind of mentor is he then? A poor bastard?
Driven by his curiosity, Qiu Yuhua was about to approach and observe, but he stopped when he sensed the aura of the warrior-level creature. "They...won't hurt people, will they?"

"Well, maybe the little black tortoise won't." Meng Qiuzhen pointed to the zen-like little tortoise in his hand.

The little Flame Sparrow on his shoulder held its head high, not allowing any creature other than Meng Qiuzhen to touch it.

These two little guys were hatched from the two eggs he brought back from the summoning plane.

Meng Qiuzhen couldn't understand it, and could only guess that it was related to the bloodline of the totem, but knew nothing else.

Fortunately, Professor Qiu Yuhua, a very knowledgeable old professor, was there, so we asked him to help identify the pedigree of the two little ones.

A moment later, the Swift Star Wolf scurried back to the summoning plane.

Qiu Yuhua, Gu Han, Mo Fan, and Meng Qiuzhen observed the little black tortoise.

"Strange, so strange!" Qiu Yuhua took a magnifying glass and carefully examined every part of the little black tortoise's body.

"This little guy is also a War General level???" Mo Fan was full of doubts.

It's so tiny!
Look at other warrior-level creatures, such as the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf, the Swift Star Wolf, or even the Scaled Mother Demon, none of them are this small.

However, the aura of a general-level warrior emanating from him was undeniable.

After observing for a long time, Qiu Yuhua finally couldn't resist touching it.

"I don't know this little guy's lineage. After all, there are so many creatures in the world, and there's a lot that humans don't know."

"But I suspect it might possess some kind of magical ability to freely change its size, only revealing its true size when necessary!"

"Holy crap!! There's such a sorcery?" Mo Fan was utterly shocked. Could it change size at will?

"Hehe, it might have more than one kind of sorcery. Think about it, a warrior in his childhood, with this bloodline, at the very least he'll be a monarch, or even..." Qiu Yuhua swallowed hard as she spoke, "it might even be able to advance to the level of an emperor!"
