Chapter 140 Awakening of the Necromancer Ability, an Exchange Student at the Imperial Capital Academy
Mu Qinghan shook her head and said, "Let's forget it. If we stay any longer, it will only cause them more trouble. Let's stick to the original plan and head to Tianshan tomorrow to have some time alone. As for the capital, Ning Xue and a few of my friends are here, so there shouldn't be any problems."
"Ning Xue, Jiang Han will be relying on you to entertain him after he comes to Shanghai," Mu Qinghan said, smiling as he finished speaking.
Mu Ningxue nodded and said, "Aunt Han, you're joking. This manor belongs to you all. I'm just bringing him here; it's not like I'm entertaining him."
Mu Ningxue chatted with Mu Qinghan and Jiang Kun for a few more minutes at the manor before leaving to go back to school. She would have definitely stayed overnight at the manor if it weren't for school matters. After Mu Ningxue left, Jiang Kun said with a smile, "Qinghan, you weren't really serious about telling that brat Jiang Han to be friends with Ningxue, were you?"
"Jiang Han is my son. Stop calling him 'brat' all the time. If you do it again, I won't be polite to you. Also, do you have a problem with Ning Xue being my daughter-in-law?" Mu Qinghan coldly glanced at Jiang Kun, who was so frightened that he quickly stepped forward and smiled apologetically.
"How could we dare? It's just that Jiang Han, that stinky guy—I mean, that kid—found a girlfriend in Bocheng. She's quite nice, and he seems to like her a lot. We can't just break them up, can we?" Jiang Kun said with a forced smile.
"It's alright. My son is definitely going to inherit the Mu family business. Do you have any objections if I have a few more daughters-in-law?"
"Or are you envious of my son and want to have a few lovers? If you're so capable, you can give it a try."
Mu Qinghan gestured as she spoke, startling Jiang Kun, who quickly explained, "Qinghan, my feelings for you are as clear as day! How could I possibly have such thoughts?"
Jiang Kun was a little envious of Jiang Han, but he couldn't show it in front of his wife. If she guessed his feelings, he would definitely be sleeping on the sofa tonight.

After the entrance exams, Jiang Han wanted to take Tang Yue out for some fun in Shanghai and do something to strengthen their teacher-student relationship. However, Tang Yue said she had to go back to Songcheng. Before leaving, she explained why she was going back to Songcheng. She didn't know why she had to explain the reason to Jiang Han.
After returning home, Jiang Han spent 500 system points at Xiao Shi's place to exchange for an Awakening Card. Holding the Awakening Card, which was entirely purple and covered with countless intricate runes, he felt it awaken and grow brighter as magic energy was injected into it, eventually turning into starlight that merged into Jiang Han's body. At the same time, two new stardust appeared in Jiang Han's spiritual world.
One is silver-white, and the other is gray-white. These two newly awakened stardusts revolve around several large galaxies and star systems, including the Ice System, within the spiritual world.
According to Jiang Han's understanding, the silver-white one is the mysterious spatial type, while the gray-white one is the necromancy type.
The Necromantic magic system appears very rarely in Uncle Luan's original work. Given how terrifying the ancient capital that pioneered it was, Jiang Han was somewhat curious about how far he could develop it. After awakening two new magic systems, Jiang Han began practicing star control in his cultivation space.
The next day, Jiang Han and Mo Fan had just entered the school gate when Zhao Manyan was waiting there. Mo Fan, unsure why Zhao Manyan had summoned them, asked in confusion, "Zhao Manyan, what do you want with us?"
"Don't you know? Dean Xiao sold us out, sending us to the capital as exchange students for a while," Zhao Manyan said as he walked over.
"Huh, exchange students? What's that?" Mo Fan asked, puzzled.
Jiang Han said calmly, "To put it nicely, it's an exchange program; to put it bluntly, it's a competition between colleges. As for why it's the Imperial Capital Academy, I suppose the school leaders drew the Imperial Capital Academy by lottery, and both sides will send outstanding students to the other school to study for three months."
"I really don't know how unlucky the school leaders are. They actually managed to draw Imperial Capital University. You know, Imperial Capital University is full of freaks and prodigies. Dean Xiao only specifically named you two to avoid losing face. But with Jiang Han's strength, even if he goes to Imperial Capital, he won't be weaker than those prodigies," Zhao Manyan said.
Jiang Han and Mo Fan came here today not because Zhao Manyan wanted to see them, but because Dean Xiao asked them to come. After entering Dean Xiao's office, Dean Xiao warmly invited the three of them to sit down.
As soon as he sat down, Mo Fan said with dissatisfaction, "Dean, how could you enroll me without even asking me? I don't want to be an exchange student; I just want to stay at school to cultivate and improve my cultivation."
Jiang Han glanced at Mo Fan, too lazy to speak. He knew without a doubt what Mo Fan was thinking. That guy just wanted to get some good stuff from Dean Xiao. Jiang Han didn't stop him. He also wanted to get some from Dean Xiao, but he just let Mo Fan say it. As the dean of Mingzhu Academy, Dean Xiao must have a lot of good stuff. Just a little bit would be enough for Jiang Han and Mo Fan to have a good time.
"You don't need to be modest. Although you're not as outstanding as Jiang Han among the freshmen in the main campus, you're still exceptional. How could we not let you go?" Dean Xiao said with a smile, stroking his beard.
"Dean Xiao, you yourself said my strength is inferior to Jiang Han's. Let Jiang Han go for this kind of battle for the honor of the academy. I would only be a hindrance." Mo Fan remained unmoved.
Zhao Manyan was inwardly complaining: If you go and drag us down, then what are I and the others?
How could someone as shrewd as Dean Xiao not guess Mo Fan's little scheme?
He took two items out of his pocket and placed them on the table: a jade-green bracelet and a pendant shaped like a blade. He smiled and said, "I know you're under a lot of pressure going to the capital as exchange students. Therefore, the school has decided to give you some extra rewards. One is a healing bracelet, and the other is a mind-controlling magic artifact. You and Jiang Han will each receive one."
"The Mind-Concentrating Magic Artifact can ensure that a mage can withstand a mental attack and release magic completely while controlling a star."
Before Dean Xiao could even introduce the healing bracelet, Mo Fan's eyes lit up. The Mind-Concentrating Artifact was a really good thing; it could help him withstand one curse-type mental attack. He smiled and reached out to touch the Mind-Concentrating Artifact on the table.
Dean Xiao raised his hand and slapped Mo Fan's hand, saying calmly, "Don't be in such a hurry, I haven't finished my introduction yet."
"This healing bracelet, when infused with magical energy, can condense a healing sprite to help injured mages recover from their wounds."
"Healing Elf!!" Mo Fan's eyes lit up even more when he heard this. If it was a Healing Elf, it was a mid-level healing spell. With this healing bracelet, he might be able to turn the tide of battle.
Mo Fan looked at Jiang Han and said with a smile, "Jiang Han, this healing bracelet is mine. How about you take that Mind-Concentrating Demonic Artifact?"
"What do you think? Don't be too greedy," Jiang Han said calmly.
When Dean Xiao introduced the healing bracelet, Mo Fan roughly guessed that it was prepared for Jiang Han. The reason he said those things earlier was because he fantasized that Jiang Han would give the healing bracelet to him; to put it bluntly, he was daydreaming.
Having a Mind-Concentrating Magic Artifact is not bad, at least it's better than nothing. Mo Fan reached out and held the Mind-Concentrating Magic Artifact in his hand, and said with a smile, "Dean Xiao, it is my duty to go to the capital as an exchange student for the honor of the school. Jiang Han and I will definitely beat those guys from the capital academy to their knees and call them daddy."
"Don't cause trouble." Dean Xiao paused for a moment, then continued, "But don't be too reserved. As long as you're in the right, go ahead and do it. The school will back you up."
