Chapter 179: The government prepares, but is shocked by the bad news
After leaving Zhuoyuan, everyone rested in Dunhuang for a few days before boarding the train back home.
Xu Fan, Mo Fan and the others planned to visit the imperial capital first, then return to Mingzhu Academy, and then wait until the national competition selection. Although Xu Fan was almost the chosen one, he still wanted to show off his skills.
Zhang Xiaohou and his wife parted ways with Xu Fan and others in Dunhuang. Next, they will report to the military headquarters. He Yu has been assigned a new task, and Zhang Xiaohou will try to break through to a higher level again. Regardless of success or failure, he will go to the ancient capital to carry out the mission.
"When we meet next time, Monkey should be at a higher level! When Monkey finishes his mission, we can go to the ancient capital to see him if we have time!"
“I remember that a group of people from Bo were resettled in the ancient capital before!”
Mo Fan said with some anticipation. In his opinion, the mission Zhang Xiaohou was about to carry out would not be too dangerous.
"Hehe, I remember clearly that Mu Bai and his lackey Zhao Kunsan were also in the ancient capital!"
Mo Fan said with a smile. He was a loser in the past and was often laughed at by Zhao Kunsan. Although he had fought side by side with Mu Bai during the Bo City disaster, Mo Fan always had an urge to compete with Mu Bai.
He is now at the advanced level of two systems. After a while, he should be able to successfully release high-level magic. Mu Bai can only look up to him!
"And me, take me with you!"
Zhao Manyan was very eager to participate. He now understood more and more clearly that Mo Fan was a big supporter, and Xu Fan was an even bigger supporter. With these two big brothers protecting him, he could travel around the world to exchange ideas during the National Government Competition.
Mo Fan and Xu Fan both nodded slowly. After being together for such a long time, Zhao Manyan had already won their recognition. If Xu Fan, Mo Fan and Zhang Xiaohou were known as the Three Heroes of Bo City, then Xu Fan, Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were the Three Heroes of Mingzhu.
Along the way, Xu Fan, Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were chatting, while Lingling and Ye Xinxia talked about Xu Fan's childhood. Only Zhao Chenying and Zhou Min looked at each other. They had a lot to say, but in the end they swallowed their words.
Zhou Min's eyes were filled with reluctance, but she also knew that it would be difficult for her to stop the development of the relationship between Mo Fan and Zhao Chenying. Her only advantage was that she had taken the initiative.
Mo Fan didn't say much about this. With Xu Fan's good example in front of him, he was a little shaken. And it was also because of the examples set by Ye Xinxia and others that Zhou Min didn't have a big objection to this matter.
Mo Fan's attitude is to let the situation develop. If he can be with Zhao Chenying, it will certainly be a good thing. If not, with Jiang Feng around, their relationship will not be too awkward.
Jiang Feng naturally noticed the change in her daughter's attitude. She also knew that this matter had something to do with herself, so she had been hiding in Mo Fan's contract space. As long as Mo Fan did not abandon his daughter, she would not interfere in this matter.
Little Yan Ji basically sleeps for twenty hours every day, and her cultivation level increases a lot every time she sleeps. With sufficient milk powder and snacks, her growth rate is much faster than that of a normal Yan Ji.
Jiang Feng guessed that another reason why Xiao Yan Ji grew so fast was the promotion of the two soul seeds and Xu Fan's high-level cultivation. Maybe Xiao Yan Ji could reach the commander level before Xu Fan broke through the super level. And if Xu Fan broke through the super level, he could still drive Xiao Yan Ji's cultivation to improve rapidly, maybe Xiao Yan Ji could break through the monarch level before her.
After Xu Fan arrived in the imperial capital, he first went to meet up with his former teammates Mu Ningxue, Mu Nujiao and others. The original exchange study activity had long been disrupted, and those injured team members such as Bai Zangfeng had long been taken back to the Magic City by their families. The reason why Mu Nujiao stayed was only to cultivate feelings with Mu Ningxue.
With the return of Xu Fan and Mo Fan, the exchange student team was complete. After a farewell ceremony was held at the Imperial Capital Academy, the exchange student activities officially ended.
Mu Ningxue naturally went through the Imperial Capital Academy route to enter the National Palace Competition, while Mu Nujiao returned to Mingzhu with Xu Fan. Xu Fan and Mo Fan could be said to be non-staff members, while Zhao Manyan was a player with a lot of money. Mu Nujiao still had to fight for Mingzhu's spot.
However, thanks to Jin Lin's core of the earth, Mu Nujiao's cultivation has improved a lot. Now her plant system has also broken through to the high level. It can even be said that her return to the Magic City is just a formality.
After returning to the Magic City, everyone lived a peaceful life except for Mo Fan who occasionally fell into the Shura Field.
Ye Xinxia, Ding Yumian, Ai Jiangtu, Mu Nujiao, and Tang Yue who occasionally went on business trips to the Magic City, Xu Fan's life was extremely fulfilling during this period. He even specially found a teacher in the Magic City who claimed to be a descendant of the Yang Family Generals and studied spearmanship for a period of time.
Although Xu Fan rarely showed up at Mingzhu Academy, rumors about him were rife. His natural mid-level talent had also spread. Everyone knew that he would definitely have a place in the National Academy Competition, but no one dared to raise any objections.
They vented their anger on another person who was born with dual talents, but when Mo Fan performed the high-level fire magic Sky Flame Funeral in front of everyone, Mingzhu Academy suddenly calmed down.
Even Dongfang Lie, who had been highly regarded for joining the National Team, has become more obedient. An intermediate level 4 magician can have a great advantage against an intermediate level full-level magician, but when the opponent becomes a high-level magician, there is no difference between an intermediate level 4 and a level 3.
The places that other universities and military commands fought tooth and nail for could no longer cause the slightest ripple at Mingzhu University, as all the previous seeded players had learned to play badly.
There was even a hint of gloating in Dongfang Lie's eyes when he looked at Mu Nujiao who also released high-level magic. It was normal for me, a mid-level mage, to not be able to join the National Government team. So what if Mu Nujiao was a high-level mage? In the end, she ended up like me!
The time finally came to the final day of the Mingzhu School District National Team Selection Competition. Xu Fan and Mo Fan finally showed up. Mu Nujiao followed behind them, and the three of them stood directly on the stage.
"These three are the candidates chosen by our Mingzhu. If anyone thinks they can replace one of them, they can come on stage and challenge!"
Dean Xiao announced while sitting on the podium. Although many people were surprised that there were only three vacancies, they were all mid-level mages and none of them dared to challenge.
Not to mention them, even the regular players of the National Team had some who failed to break through to the higher levels, such as Mu Tingying who was frozen by Mu Ningxue at the Imperial Capital Academy.
When Xu Fan was about to step down from the stage, his cell phone suddenly rang urgently. He took it out and saw that it was indeed He Yu calling.
The bad news about Zhang Xiaohou finally came!
