Chapter 100 Mo Fan with Green Glow in His Eyes, Jiang Kun's Background
"Young people always have their little secrets. You are, and so is Jiang Han. I won't pry if you don't want to talk about them; you'll just have to reveal them sooner or later anyway," Dean Xiao said with a smile.
Looking at the aged figure, Jiang Han thought to himself, "As expected of a powerful figure at the forbidden spell level, it seems he sensed something from me. Fortunately, Dean Xiao didn't have any ill intentions towards us, otherwise Mo Fan and I would probably have died a terrible death."
"Jiang Han, I need to remind you of something. Your innate dual-elemental talent was exposed too early, and some people have already set their sights on you. They can't do anything to you in Shanghai, but be extremely careful if you leave the safety barrier," Dean Xiao warned solemnly.
"Thank you for the reminder, Dean Xiao," Jiang Han said respectfully.
Jiang Han knew who Dean Xiao was referring to; the people targeting him were most likely Lu Nian and his group.
When he goes to the desolate city for training, even if he can't reach the high level, he can still reach the mid-level perfection. It's still unknown who will live and who will die when he meets Lu Nian.
"Alright, let's get to the main things for today." Dean Xiao turned and walked towards the sofa.
"I've been waiting for you to say that." Mo Fan followed Dean Xiao with a smile. Jiang Han didn't say anything and went straight to the sofa to sit down, waiting for Dean Xiao's instructions.
"You're quite the smooth talker, aren't you? Our academy's public resources are originally divided among countless students of each department, but since you won this competition, the school has decided to convert all the public resources into cultivation resources that you can use," Dean Xiao said calmly.
"As long as they don't exploit me at every turn and deduct from the little bit of hard-earned money I make, that's fine," Mo Fan said with a smile.
"Hey, how dare you talk to Dean Xiao like that? Do you really think everyone is as greedy as you?" Jiang said coldly.
Dean Xiao was amused by Mo Fan. With a wave of his right hand, several magical tools appeared on the table. He said, "Here are a few high-level magical tools, suitable for mid-level mages in combat. You can choose first. As for the cultivation resources, summoning resources, and bonus, I'll give them to you later."
Mo Fan's eyes lit up when he saw the magical artifacts on the table. He smiled and said, "Dean Xiao, I'm so poor, can I take all these magical artifacts?"
"You must be dreaming. Every magical artifact here is incredibly valuable, and you think you can have them all?" Jiang Han said, rather speechless.
"Haha, it's probably impossible to give you all these high-level magical artifacts. I've brought them out this time so that they're most suitable for your needs. The magical artifact on the far right is the Blood Beast Boots, forged from the bones and blood of the Changbai Mountain Blood Beast. Wearing them will give you the powerful running ability of a Blood Beast, and your leg strength will be enough to split mountains and shatter rocks," Dean Xiao introduced to Mo Fan.
After hearing Dean Xiao's introduction, Mo Fan's eyes lit up even more. These Blood Beast Boots were truly a wonderful item.
"It can even attack on its own? This is truly a treasure." Mo Fan almost drooled as he looked at it.
Finally, Jiang Han couldn't stand it anymore and coughed lightly, saying, "Look at you, so pathetic, you're practically drooling all over the table."
"Ahem, what about Dean Xiao's black armor? What's its purpose?" Mo Fan coughed lightly and asked.
Dean Xiao smiled and continued, "This armor is called the Azure Scale Armor. Its biggest feature is its flexibility and softness, but it is not strong enough in terms of defense. However, the Azure Scale Armor is suitable for wearing as soft armor under clothing."
"Well, to put it bluntly, it's still a relatively low-grade product," Mo Fan said casually.
"Hmm, but it's still not a problem to withstand attacks from slave-level demons." Dean Xiao said, waving his right hand again, and two or three demon-slaying tools appeared on the table. The most peculiar demon-slaying tool looked like the talons of an eagle. Mo Fan noticed it as soon as it appeared.
Dean Xiao continued, "The demon-slaying tool you see is called the Black Cleaver. Once activated, it can transform into the forearm of a black serpent, with destructive power comparable to the combined attack of two advanced-stage demons. And this Ink Snow Blade is a demon-slaying tool forged from millennia-old cold iron, with magical incantations engraved on it."
Dean Xiao introduced the various magical tools on the table to Mo Fan one by one, and Mo Fan's eyes grew brighter and brighter, even glowing green.
Mo Fan wanted all the magical artifacts on the table, but he could only choose one, which made him extremely heartbroken. Choosing the most suitable one from so many magical artifacts was a difficult decision for him.
"Look, those Blood Beast Boots are perfect for you," Jiang Han reminded him in a cold voice.
After seeing Jiang Han recommend the Blood Beast Boots to Mo Fan, Dean Xiao said, "The Shadow element is not invincible among all elements. Unlike the Wind and Earth elements, it cannot move freely. The Blood Beast Boots can indeed be of great help to you. Try them on."
Mo Fan compared the Blood Beast Boots with other magical artifacts, and found that they were indeed the most suitable for him. The Blood Beast Boots gave him multiple escape abilities; if he couldn't win a fight, at least he could run away. Therefore, Mo Fan followed the advice of Jiang Han and Dean Xiao and chose the Blood Beast Boots. After imprinting his spiritual mark onto the Blood Beast Boots, Mo Fan felt a connection between the boots and his soul. With a thought, the boots automatically materialized on his legs. Feeling the surge of power in his legs, Mo Fan felt that a single stomp could shatter rocks.
"Thank you, Dean," Mo Fan said with a smile.
Jiang Han had no interest in the various magical artifacts that Dean Xiao had brought out. The Thunder Dragon Armguard and Snow Condensation Dragon Blade he obtained from the system could instantly kill most magical artifacts. Moreover, his master had said that these two magical artifacts could be upgraded in the Magical Artifact Workshop. The fact that they could be upgraded alone was something that other magical artifacts could not compare to.
"The cultivation resources you've been given are one opportunity to cultivate in the Three-Step Tower. We've also noticed your performance in the friendly match, so this time your cultivation time in the Three-Step Tower will be extended to one week, while Jiang Han's cultivation time is half a month. The opportunity to cultivate in the Three-Step Tower is extremely precious, so I think you should go in at an appropriate time."
After saying this, Dean Xiao took out a yellow bank card from his clothes and said, "There is a bonus of two million in this card. All the public funds of all departments this semester are yours. For magicians, money is just a supplement. The most important thing is to pursue a higher level of magic. You should understand what the responsibility of a true magician is."
When Dean Xiao handed the bank card to Mo Fan, his eyes immediately lit up again, practically flashing with money. He gripped the card tightly with both hands and tried to pull it away, but Dean Xiao wouldn't let go, lecturing him on various grand principles about focusing on magic cultivation.
"Dean Xiao, don't worry, I will absolutely not be satisfied with just a mere mid-level." Mo Fan said quickly while pulling on the bank card in Dean Xiao's hand.
As soon as Mo Fan finished speaking, Dean Xiao released the bank card he was holding onto. Mo Fan was so caught off guard that he almost fell to the ground. Jiang Han shook his head, his face practically screaming, "I don't know this idiot!"
"I hope that when a major disaster strikes, you can do your part as you did in Bo City," Dean Xiao said, adjusting his glasses.
"We will keep the Dean's teachings in mind!!" Jiang Han and Mo Fan said in unison.
After Mo Fan and Jiang Han left the office, a middle-aged man appeared inside. If Jiang Han and Mo Fan hadn't left, they would have recognized him as Jiang Han's adoptive father, Jiang Kun.
"Haokun, your son is quite remarkable; he has excellent talent and a good temperament," Dean Xiao said approvingly.
Jiang Kun's full name is Jiang Haokun. He is a direct descendant of a powerful family. He was expelled from the family and became an outcast because of a certain incident. After being expelled, he received a lot of care from Dean Xiao. If it weren't for wanting to prove himself to his family, Jiang Kun would definitely have become a legendary figure at Mingzhu Academy. But then he wouldn't have met Mu Qinghan, and there would be no Jiang Han at all.
