Are the victims highly talented?
high!
Horrible? Horrible?
Absolutely terrifying!
If no one stops things when they get out of control, the result will be mass casualties.
But if the downside is loss of control, what are the benefits?
The victims are gifted freaks!
Especially for the lineage that awakens to the calamity, reaching the forbidden spell is no problem at all.
In other words, becoming a victim of the disaster grants one a ticket to the forbidden spell.
Not the kind of weak forbidden spell that can't be cast on its own, but a forbidden spell mage who can cast forbidden spells independently.
Furthermore, because of the victims, the speed and time it takes for them to control and release magic will be greatly increased or decreased.
Ding Yumin can be considered a future master of forbidden spells in the field of mind magic.
It was fate that Su Lan and Ding Yumin met.
Ding Yumin's mental magic went out of control due to a sudden bout of sadness.
Su Lan happened to be passing by at that moment and immediately had Serafina suppress Ding Yumin's rampaging mind-based magical energy.
Knowing that Su Lan could help her suppress her mind-based magical energy, Ding Yumin immediately clung to Su Lan.
Not the kind of clingy, persistent type.
Instead, it's a gentle, considerate, proactive, and benevolent way of sticking together.
Ding Yumin usually just quietly followed by his side, never asking for anything in return.
She just hoped that Su Lan could help her suppress the mental energy within her body when she lost control.
Su Lan did not refuse this easy task.
Over time, the news that Ding Yumin's mental system was temporarily under control reached the ears of Dean Fu and Dean Xiao.
Especially when Dean Fu learned that someone could temporarily suppress Ding Yumin's mental magic, he almost cried tears of joy.
Dean Fu, who dedicated his life to teaching and nurturing students, had long regarded the orphaned and helpless Ding Yumin as his own granddaughter.
It is important to know that harboring victims of disasters is a serious crime.
If the Holy City finds out that someone dares to harbor the victims, they will be severely punished.
Especially when you don't have enough power to protect the victims.
But that's exactly what Dean Fu did.
He kept Ding Yumin's identity as a victim a secret, known only to the upper echelons of Mingzhu Academy.
Dissemination is strictly prohibited.
"Su Lan!"
"Su Lan!"
Upon seeing Su Lan enter, Dean Fu and Ding Yumin greeted her warmly.
Ding Yumin, in particular, had a shy look in her eyes that seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
Su Lan, who sensed Ding Yumin's emotions, did not say it directly.
Both Dean Fu and Dean Xiao are here today; they must have something to discuss with me.
All you have to do now is listen.
Dean Fu took the initiative to pull Su Lan to sit between Ding Yumin and him, and instead of getting straight to the point, he tried to find topics to talk about from all over the world.
After reviewing the files, Dean Xiao sat on the opposite sofa and leisurely joined the conversation.
Ding Yumin, standing beside them, poured tea for the three of them with a serene expression and a faint smile on her face.
Perhaps sensing that it was almost time, Dean Xiao and Dean Fu exchanged a glance and coughed at the same time.
Seeing that the two were finally about to get to the point, Su Lan pretended to listen attentively.
"Su Lan, there are actually three things I wanted to ask you to come here today."
As Dean Xiao spoke, he proactively poured about seven-tenths of the tea that Su Lan had left, which was only one-third full.
Seeing Dean Xiao's appearance, Su Lan leaned back slightly.
While it's true that unsolicited favors are often a sign of ulterior motives, that's not entirely accurate here.
But in the current situation, this phrase actually has a certain charm.
Perhaps realizing his intentions were too obvious, Dean Xiao gave an awkward smile.
"Firstly, there is an exchange meeting between Mingzhu Academy and Imperial Capital Academy in a month. I hope you, Su Lan, can accompany them and have your summoned beast protect them a little while they go out for training."
"Those selected will be the next generation of outstanding talents from Mingzhu Academy, and I don't want anything to happen to them."
"The reason we chose you, Su Lan, is because you are strong enough now. Leading the team to the Imperial Capital Academy will make Mingzhu Academy famous and protect the next generation of talents."
At this point, Dean Xiao looked at Su Lan and asked for her opinion.
Su Lan nodded in agreement when asked to lead the team to the exchange match a month later.
"I have no problem leading the team."
Su Lan knew that Dean Xiao's suggestion to go was suspected of being a way to "show off" to the Imperial Academy, since the Imperial Academy had been ahead of Mingzhu Academy for the past few years.
As for the training after the exchange competition, Dean Xiao wanted to use the alien girl's help to secretly protect the students in the exchange group.
This is perfectly understandable.
After all, nobody wants promising young talents to suffer for nothing.
Moreover, knowing the subsequent plot, Su Lan's protection was truly necessary this time.
Upon hearing Su Lan's agreement, both Dean Xiao and Dean Fu smiled.
"The second point is about the next World University Competition."
When this topic was brought up, both Dean Xiao and Dean Fu looked very serious.
"In the previous World University Tournament, the Great Xia National Government team was eliminated in the top 16, which resulted in us obtaining very few resources from the tournament."
"Not only the last session, but also the session before that, and even several sessions in total, Da Xia failed to achieve good rankings."
"To be honest, the entire Great Xia has nearly two billion people, yet it is still inferior to the neighboring Japan. It is truly a failure."
"There are many factors involved, and many powerful forces involved, so even I can't change much."
"But Su Lan, your appearance gives me hope for a top-three finish."
At this moment, Dean Xiao and Dean Fu looked intently at Su Lan.
They knew Su Lan's current apparent strength.
That is the third level of the three systems.
This level of strength is comparable to that of a captain in the top three teams at the World University Tournament.
Moreover, Su Lan is not an ordinary elemental mage.
Su Lan's strongest magic types are summoning and spatial magic.
Even the third element is the strongest elemental attack magic, lightning.
A year ago, Su Lan was able to summon two advanced-stage warrior-level contracted beasts.
After a year of training, he must have been promoted to the commander level.
In two or three years, at the next World University Competition, Su Lan's two summoned beasts might even be promoted to Grand Commanders.
Furthermore, with Su Lan's two contracted beasts, fighting opponents of higher levels is as easy as eating and drinking.
They really couldn't imagine which high-level mage could win without relying on sheer numbers.
Moreover, Su Lan is not weak in either the summoning or spatial or lightning magic.
He even plans to work around the issue of securing the captaincy for the next Great Xia National Team.
At worst, I'll just swallow my pride and stand up for Su Lan.
Surely no one would dare to disrespect him.
Of course, it doesn't matter if someone doesn't appreciate your kindness.
Dean Xiao believed he had some martial arts skills.
Secondly, Su Lan also agreed.
However, Su Lan's strength in the competition will be more than just high-level.
It's even possible to use super-level spells or even forbidden spells.
Regarding the issue of super-ranked individuals being ineligible to participate, Su Lan stated that there was nothing that concealing one's aura couldn't resolve.
You say it's unfair?
There is no such thing as fairness in this world.
Thirdly, I hope that Su Lan can live with Ding Yumin.
"ha?"
