Full-Time Magister: Throne of Dimensions

Chapter 21 Top Students at the Ancient Capital's Academy

The air in the ancient capital had a musty smell of decay, which was very unpleasant. Due to differences in individual constitutions, some people could tolerate it, while others vomited.

The ancient capital academy sent two students. One was chubby with frizzy hair sticking up to the sky and walking with an arrogant gait. The other was a girl, much quieter, wearing glasses and taking small, quick steps.

Both of them were mid-level mages; the man was named Liu Weiwei, and the woman was named Zhong Xiao.

Liu Weiwei is furious. The school has assigned him some terrible task: to lead over thirty novice mages to visit the undead and not be allowed to get into any danger. Oh, and most of them aren't even mages.

Zhong Xiao didn't have any objections. Seven days was enough to earn a lot of credits, which was much more worthwhile than hunting undead outside the Anjie.

The two had different ideas. Zhong Xiao went to coordinate with the teacher, while Liu Weiwei looked unhappy. He planned to lower his image among the students so that they would go to Zhong Xiao if they had any problems. He could slack off for seven days and still get credits.

Thinking about it, it's not bad, provided that you can actually get away with it for seven days without any accidents.

"You're students from Zhoucheng No. 7 Middle School?" Liu Weiwei glanced at them briefly and lost interest. "You don't look very good."

He looked arrogant and didn't take the students seriously at all.

"Who do you think you are?" Fang Ming took a step forward and said fiercely, his face almost touching Liu Weiwei's.

The university doesn't have school uniforms, and since they've all only recently come of age, their faces still have a touch of childishness. Liu Weiwei, on the other hand, is the kind of person who likes to shirk his duties and avoid hardship, so he doesn't get to do anything tough and looks even younger.

Fang Ming was furious after being scolded by the short man, and now some bastard from who-knows-where was looking down on him. He was, after all, a mage, and a fire mage at that.

Liu Weiwei took a step back, her face showing disdain, and her tone arrogant, "Liu Weiwei, a second-year student at the Ancient Capital Academy, a fire mage, currently capable of casting mid-level fire magic. What, you want to spar with me? I'm fine with it, but I don't know if your little body can handle it."

Liu Weiwei's words immediately caused a stir. Not only the students from No. 7 Middle School, but other passengers couldn't help but look over. This was a top student from an ancient capital's prestigious university.

Fang Ming felt like he had swallowed a fly, unable to speak for a long time. He was cursing under his breath. First, he was taught a lesson by a level 3 fire mage, which he tolerated, but now a mid-level fire mage had appeared.

This is truly bizarre.

The mid-level mages in Zhoucheng are all seasoned veterans who have been honing their skills for over a decade, yet they've encountered someone so young.

The difference between small cities and big cities becomes apparent.

"What, aren't you going to show me?" Liu Weiwei asked, feeling refreshed after seeing Fang Ming freeze.

"No...no need." Fang Ming clenched his fists and said unwillingly.

"Oh, I'm free anytime. Just let me know if you want to spar." Liu Weiwei smiled faintly, looking at the others, "You all are welcome to come and learn from a senior."

"What's wrong?"

Seeing the commotion outside, Su Ming came out carrying two suitcases and addressed Liu Qi.

"It's nothing serious. Fang Ming brought up the 'iron plate' again. That's a student from the Ancient Capital Academy, a mid-level mage. The 'iron plate' Fang Ming kicked is him. I don't really like him."

Liu Qi witnessed everything that happened between Fang Ming and Liu Weiwei. Although Fang Ming was in the wrong, Liu Weiwei was, after all, a senior, and her behavior was too aggressive.

Su Ming glanced at her and then looked away. Hmm, fat and short, overnourished and too inactive.

Only a magician could be so arrogant.

Seeing that none of the people dared to resist, Liu Weiwei felt bored and decided not to waste any more time on them. As she turned to leave, she caught a glimpse of Jiang Shaoxu out of the corner of her eye. She changed direction, pushed aside the people blocking her way, and walked up to Jiang Shaoxu, revealing a confident smile. "I am Liu Weiwei."

Liu Weiwei extended her hand, and Su Ming also extended his hand, smiling and nodding, "Su Ming."

"Senior, we need to go to the hotel to drop off our things first, we'll talk later." Su Ming walked past Liu Weiwei, took Jiang Shaoxu's hand and left, leaving the two suitcases to Liu Qi.

Before Liu Weiwei could react, Su Ming had already walked over to the teachers. Although his cultivation level was higher than that of the teachers, they were still teachers, and he was just a student. He still had to respect the teachers, otherwise, if he complained even slightly, his credits would be gone.

He had rarely seen a woman like Jiang Shaoxu. Even in her bulky school uniform, she stood out in a crowd, every part of her exuding allure.

Perhaps this is love at first sight.

It's already like this when they're wearing school uniforms, imagine if they changed into...

hey-hey……

Liu Weiwei interrupted her thoughts, looking at Su Ming and feeling somewhat displeased.

How many dishes did you have to drink so much? You thought I was greeting him? You have no self-awareness at all, ptooey.

"See? I'm still very popular. No matter where I go, people fawn over me," Jiang Shaoxu said jokingly, glancing back at the scene.

Su Ming asked without curiosity, "You can still feel happy being thought about like that?"

"Why not?" Jiang Shaoxu retorted.

"Whatever makes you happy," Su Ming waved his hand. "But if I'm unhappy, the consequences will be very serious."

"Tch." Jiang Shaoxu snorted and ignored Su Ming.

The five teachers in front of me are talking to a woman, who is probably a student from the Ancient Capital Academy.

She looks petite, young, and full of energy. If the unassuming Liu Weiwei is a mid-level mage, then this girl must be too.

Su Ming couldn't help but sigh, the ancient capital academy truly lived up to its reputation as a top-tier institution, with mid-level mages being a common sight.

Jiang Shaoxu was a little unhappy. Su Ming kept staring at her. Could he possibly be prettier than her?

I've seen her. Her breasts aren't big enough, her butt isn't perky enough, she's not as tall as her, her figure isn't as good, and her looks aren't as good.

Anyway, he's inferior to her in every way. Why would a man ignore the beautiful woman next to him and insist on looking at a woman he can't have? That's men for you.

"Su Ming, Jiang Shaoxu, you two go and organize things. After putting the luggage back at the hotel, let's go visit the special scenes in the ancient capital." Lin Tian walked over and said to the two people closest to them.

OK.

"no problem."

Su Ming and Jiang Shaoxu went back to organize the team. There weren't many people; thirty-odd was easy to organize.

As they were organizing their team, the woman named Zhong Xiao walked over and, watching the two busy people, pondered, "Are these the two of them?"

"Yes, he's the best of the best in our school," Lin Tian introduced, a broad smile on his face. "That boy is called Su Ming. He awakened his spatial abilities, achieved an S-rank in the assessment, and has mastered seven star points. He's just one step away from unleashing magic."

"The girl's name is Jiang Shaoxu, a mind-based magician. She has been able to cast spells for several months now."

"Jiang...psychological..."

"What's wrong?" Lin Tian asked, seeing her muttering to herself.

Zhong Xiao shook her head. "It's nothing. I'm probably overthinking it."

The surname Jiang, the mentalist, it's unlikely to be such a coincidence. Besides, the Jiang family wouldn't attend a magic school; they all grew up in the military region. That person was just holding a position at the ancient capital's academy.

Zhong Xiao shook her head, trying not to think about these things. She had seven days, and where she would go would depend on her discussion with the five teachers. As for Liu Weiwei, she couldn't count on him at all.

Zhong Xiao suggested that they first go to the outer city wall to see the spirits of the ancient capital, so that these students who had never observed demons could see them for themselves.

The hotel is located in the outer city area; hotels in the inner city are too expensive, and the school doesn't have that much funding.

The ancient capital is a city with a thriving tourism industry. Outside the city are natural scenic spots, and even ordinary people can climb the city walls to observe the ghosts and demons. The only downside is that the air is not very fresh.

The dead bring with them a putrid stench, filling the air of this generation with the scent of death.

Although there is a barrier to purify the air, there are too many undead to purify it all.

The hotel wasn't great, but it wasn't bad either. After they put their things away, the teachers hired a large car to take them to the outskirts of the city.

They chattered excitedly the whole way; it was their first time seeing the so-called demons, and they were all very excited.

Sitting in front, Liu Weiwei couldn't help but sneer. These kids in their ivory towers could only laugh now. It would be truly impressive if they could still laugh when they faced the undead.

Liu Weiwei secretly glanced at Jiang Shaoxu, thinking that she could go and comfort her after Jiang Shaoxu was frightened by the overwhelming ghosts.

If necessary, you can also cast a spell to kill the undead and vent your anger.

By the time they reached the city wall, dusk had fallen, and the setting sun painted the earth red. In the ancient capital, the days were short and the nights were much longer.

The dead sleep during the day, with only a few wandering around outside, but at night they all crawl out of their graves.

They could smell the unique scent of the living, and every night they would charge towards the ancient capital, attempting to kill the living.
