Inside the apartment.
"Tomorrow is your Challenge Week, are you ready, Great Demon Head?" Ai Tutu asked, sitting next to Mo Fan with a look of someone enjoying gossip.
"What's there to prepare for?" Mo Fan said indifferently.
"Hey, do you even know how many people want to beat you up?" Ai Tutu said, speechless.
"It's not my first time being ganged up on," Mo Fan shrugged.
"Back in Qing Campus, relying on your War General Level Flame Howl Wolf was indeed a huge advantage. But the Main Campus is different. You pauper, count how many decent Magic Tools you have. Your Innate Dual Element does give you many more offensive methods than others, but as long as others understand you even a little and equip some defensive Magic Tools that can counter Thunder Element or Fire Element, you'll be utterly defeated!"
Ai Tutu suddenly smiled and said, "Why don't you become a live-in son-in-law for the Mu family? The large clan that Mu Ningjiao belongs to still knows how to cherish talent. With your current reputation as Great Demon Head, they would be willing to provide you with a complete set of high-quality Magic Tools for free."
"If the Mu family marries Miss Mu to me, becoming a son-in-law for the Mu family wouldn't be impossible," Mo Fan said cooperatively, glancing at Mu Ningjiao, who was gracefully standing on the balcony.
Mu Ningjiao's rosy cheeks turned, and she glared fiercely at Ai Tutu, who had come up with the bad idea. She feigned anger and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Who would want someone who causes trouble all day? It would be good enough if he doesn't tarnish our Mu family's reputation."
Upon hearing Mu Ningjiao's defense, Ai Tutu immediately leaned closer to Mo Fan and whispered with a mischievous smile, "Great Demon Head, have you noticed? Since you came back this time, Mu Ningjiao loves to criticize you and pour cold water on you. I've never seen her treat a guy with such an attitude. If she doesn't genuinely dislike you, then she must have fallen for you. I just said I'd let you be the Mu family's live-in son-in-law, but I didn't say it had to be Mu Ningjiao, did I? The Mu family has plenty of daughters."
With Ai Tutu's hint, Mo Fan immediately nodded.
Mu Ningjiao's cheeks grew even redder. She hadn't expected these two to conspire against her. She turned away, not wanting to talk to them anymore, and to escape her somewhat awkward state.
"It seems, Great Demon Head, your self-sacrificing rescue was quite successful," Ai Tutu said.
"Of course! You weren't there at the time, otherwise, wouldn't I take both you sisters?" Mo Fan said.
"Tsk, Scumbag (scum)!" Ai Tutu felt a bit embarrassed upon hearing that, cursed, and then added, "What a pity! If Mu Ningjiao's worth were truly to be sold, the Mu family would at least tie her to a young High Level Mage, or even a talent with great potential to reach Super Level. You're just a small Intermediate Mage with no significant background. At most, you'd marry a plain-looking direct descendant from the Mu family whose status is several levels below a cherished daughter like Mu Ningjiao. For a major family to marry Mu Ningjiao, the betrothal gifts would have to be high-quality Magic Tools filling this room!"
"Tsk, what a wicked class society. It won't even allow true love between us, with such strong feudalistic prejudices," Mo Fan said, pouting.
Mu Ningjiao watched as the two spoke more and more outrageously, then directly turned and left the living room.
Hmm, although she didn't respond, she also didn't refute. Clearly, this girl did have some unique feelings.
The next day. Challenge Week had arrived, and the Fire Institute members were already eager, ready to severely teach Mo Fan, the guy who dared to call them all trash, a lesson.
On this day, the Fire Institute members gathered once again in the Great Hall. People's eyes would intentionally or unintentionally glance at Mo Fan. In fact, everyone was very surprised that this kid actually had the guts to show up. Wasn't he afraid of being beaten to death by everyone?
In fact, Mo Fan didn't care about their attitudes at all.
What if there were many people?
He would directly take them all down in one wave, making them understand the gap in strength, so there would be no possibility of being ganged up on.
After all, they had to come one by one, not in groups.
He was not a kind-hearted person.
Mo Fan was still sitting in the back row behind Huang Xingli and Ding Y眠. At this moment, Huang Xingli turned her head and looked at Mo Fan with surprise, saying, "No wonder you dared to be so arrogant. I heard you thrashed all the new students in Qing Campus, right?"
"However, what you're facing next are not students who haven't even mastered a Star Map, but every elite and experienced Fire Element Mage. A Magic Wolf won't be enough for you to show off."
Mo Fan glanced at Huang Xingli. He found this girl quite talkative. He then said, "This is only our second time meeting. You don't need to be so concerned about me, do you?"
"???"
Sure enough, as soon as Mo Fan said that, Huang Xingli instantly stopped blabbering.
Wei Rong still stood on the lecture platform in the hall. His gaze quickly found Mo Fan in the crowd, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly upwards. He wanted to see how arrogant this kid could be today.
"I already have a list of challengers here. Any challenges from now on, as long as they are on our official competition grounds, will be considered valid. I believe everyone is already clear on the rules, so I won't say more. Let's begin directly," Wei Rong said.
Every month, some top-ranked individuals would accumulate grievances, and whenever these people competed, it would attract a lot of attention. For those from prominent families, establishing their reputation in this school depended on continuous challenges.
Unfortunately, the plans of those who painstakingly tried to gain higher rankings and more prestige through challenges last month would fall through this time.
Today, one could say, was Mo Fan's main show.
Wei Rong stood at the referee's seat. He had specifically come today to see how this arrogant kid would be beaten to a pulp by the group of 'trash' he had taught. Trampling on the self-righteous arrogance of students was the most frequent thing Wei Rong did in this academy.
"Today's challenges will be presided over by me," Wei Rong took out the challenge list, his gaze sweeping over the dense names of challengers, and continued, "The challenged, Mo Fan, is ranked 100th. Your number of challengers today is 231. Kid, come up here and apologize to me, write a self-criticism, and then bow and apologize to every student in the department one by one. I'll let you off, considering you transferred here."
"No need."
"Alright, the first challenger is Zhang Youhe, ranked 736th," Wei Rong knew Mo Fan wouldn't agree to that condition.
As Wei Rong called out the name, Mo Fan was already walking towards the arena.
The entire competition stage was nearly the size of a football field, covered in lush green grass.
As he arrived on the field, a young man with a slightly crooked nose also appeared. His smile was radiant, and his gaze occasionally scanned the surroundings, as if telling everyone that he was the luckiest one.
"Do you know how many people envy you? The resources we fight to the death for, you just got by flapping your mouth. It's a pity that the monthly distributed resources also have a plunder system. Hand over these things that don't belong to you obediently, and maybe you can save a bit on medical expenses," Zhang Youhe said.
Wei Rong also spoke at this moment, "Mo Fan, Zhang Youhe, ranked 736th, must be one of the vast majority of 'trash' you spoke of. If you can't even beat him, you either do as I just said, or you get out of the Fire Institute yourself. I can admit that my Fire Institute might have some 'trash' mixed in, but I cannot tolerate students who are incompetent and shameless, like you."
"Can we start?" Mo Fan asked directly.
Wei Rong looked at Mo Fan's arrogant demeanor, feeling annoyed, but in the end, he held back his anger.
"Yes, begin!"
