Chapter 39 Elemental Holy Spirit
Lying in bed staring at the ceiling, there was no longer that chilling aura around me; Jiuyouhou must be gone.
Su Ming sat up with a jolt, ready to begin his cultivation.
Suddenly, Xiao Qing ran out from the summoning plane. This time, instead of wandering around Su Ming for a while, she sat down next to him with a serious expression.
Seeing Xiaoqing's condition, Su Ming knew it was over; the Nine Netherworld Queen was still alive!
Just as Su Ming had this thought, an invisible gust of cold wind suddenly blew out of the room, and the phantom of a stunningly beautiful woman slowly emerged. Her lower body was transparent, and the woman's delicate face showed a hint of doubt as she asked, "What are you doing here?"
Su Ming quickly composed himself and forced a smile. "Sister, as you know, I grew up in a small place like Zhoucheng. I've never seen such a luxurious hotel in my life, so I thought I'd stay here for one night to experience it. Maybe I'll be able to control Xingzi more easily here."
"Come on, I don't know where you grew up." Jiuyou waved her hand: "You should just focus on your cultivation. I'm going to take a look around first. You need to bring me the crystal within a year at most. I'll come back to find you when the time is almost up."
After saying that, Jiuyou disappeared immediately, and no one knows where she went.
Su Ming stared blankly at the place where Jiu You disappeared. A year had passed; he didn't know if it was a good or bad thing.
From a long-term perspective, this is good news; at least we don't have to go to our deaths right now. If we look at the bigger picture, it just means the time to die has been slightly delayed.
I need to focus on my training and stop thinking about these things. If I can become stronger, maybe I can still walk out of the Graveyard of the Dead alive in a year. If I stagnate, I'll definitely die.
The next day, Su Ming returned to his rented room and never came back after Jiu You. It seemed that he had really gone to a very far place. Su Ming spent the next two months cultivating.
He was still unable to master basic magic before the start of the semester, which was a huge blow to him. He didn't even want to go to the ancient capital academy anymore and decided to take some time to reflect.
But he couldn't not go; he... had no money.
Su Ming needs money right now, and going to the academy can solve a lot of resource problems, which in turn solves the money problem.
The school had recommended Su Ming to the Space Department, but Su Ming did not want to enroll in the Space Department. He planned to enroll in the Ancient Capital Academy as a Summoning Department student.
This has one advantage: Xiaoqing's resources will be resolved. Space magic is mostly awakened by high-level mages. Although there are professional space magic instructors in the ancient capital academy, they have relatively few resources.
Those who have awakened the space system at a high level may have already graduated, while most people will choose to graduate when they are close to reaching the mid-level.
The ancient capital university gathers top students from all over the country. Although most people think that the ancient capital university is a little worse than the capital university and the magic university, and even inferior to the demon city university, this is not the case. It can only be said that the focus is different.
Lu Huan once emerged from the ancient capital's academy. He was the chief of the ancient capital's imperial guards, a mage standing at the pinnacle, possessing the most powerful cultivation and combat strength among humans, and a fully mastered mage of the four super-class elements.
Su Ming lives in the ancient capital. The semester is officially only one day long, but in reality, it lasts for three days. This is to take care of ordinary students who live too far away.
Su Ming's first day was over. During the enrollment period, the ancient capital was crowded with people, including new students, returning students, parents who brought their children, and idle people from society.
Su Ming's magical cultivation has been reported to the Ancient Capital Academy, and his information is already in his file. However, he was admitted as a Space Department student. If Su Ming wants to be admitted as a Summoning Department student, he needs to go to the school leaders to change it.
"Special Admissions Office." Su Ming saw a sign standing there; this was it.
Demonstrate your intermediate-level mage skills, then use the summoning system to enroll.
……
"Your name is Su Ming, from Zhoucheng. Didn't you enroll in the Space Department?" Several school leaders were above the training ground, including the heads of various departments. One of them, who was slightly younger, asked with a strange expression.
"I want to enroll in the Summoning Department," Su Ming said solemnly, looking at the instructors on the stage.
"Oh? A summoner?"
"Looks like he's a mid-level mage, a mid-level space mage, and he's awakened the summoning ability. I think this is a good option. Old Liu, who specializes in space mages, basically leaves his students to their own devices, and he only teaches high-level space mages. He might not be able to teach mid-level or early-level mages well."
……
Several instructors whispered among themselves on stage. The intermediate-level mage had already exceeded their standards and was considered an excellent student, so they certainly wouldn't refuse him.
One of the instructors, wearing glasses and exuding energy, stood up and looked at Su Ming below the stage, saying, "Su Ming, right? Let me introduce myself. I am Zhang Hai, the head of the Summoning Department."
"With your cultivation level, entering my residence is no problem. However, the Summoning system is different from other systems. I wonder if you have mastered the basic Summoning magic. If you can summon a beast, we can be fair and just when allocating resources."
"Everywhere is a dog-eat-dog world. You are a mid-level space mage, but in the summoning world, all resources depend not on the mage himself, but on your summoned beasts."
"I have a summoned beast," Su Ming replied, inwardly exclaiming that Xiao Qing had recently become obsessed with TV dramas, watching them every day without eating or sleeping. Su Ming felt that he himself was not as successful as Xiao Qing.
It doesn't resemble a summoned beast at all. Because of staying up late watching TV, Xiao Qing's mental state has been poor, and it sleeps in the summoning plane every day.
Su Ming arrived at the summoning plane, and Xiao Qing was indeed sleeping, motionless. Su Ming went forward and lifted Xiao Qing up, which made her open her eyes, but there was still a little confusion in her eyes.
Su Ming talked at length with Xiao Qing, and after confirming that Xiao Qing understood, his consciousness returned to his body, and he began to control the star.
The seven stars instantly aligned themselves in orbit, and a massive crack opened up behind him, as high as a three-story building.
The mentors on the stage widened their eyes, eagerly anticipating what kind of summoned beast would appear. With such a large dimensional gate, the summoned beast system emerging from it should also be enormous.
Zhang Hai, the head of the Summoning Department, kept picturing slave-level creatures that could reach the height of a three-story building in his mind; those enormous summoned beasts were no weaklings.
A creature with a large, laughing hand slowly floated out from the deep dimensional gate. Xiao Qing flew out from it, wearing a feathered robe and light gauze woven by the wind, just like the one Su Ming first saw in the summoning plane.
The head of the Summoning Department was greatly disappointed when he saw that it was just a little guy. He leaned back in his chair, speechless. How could such a big Summoning Gate produce such a tiny thing?
The other mentors were more or less disappointed; this summoned beast didn't look very good.
An elderly man on the stage, with a full beard and gray hair, was dressed in health-preserving clothes. It seemed that he had been practicing Tai Chi in the morning and was immediately called here without even having time to change his clothes.
His eyes flickered slightly as he carefully observed Xiao Qing. After a moment, he understood everything. The old man smiled faintly and said, "Young Zhang, you can't judge things by appearances. Haven't you noticed the difference in this summoned beast?"
After the old man said this, everyone looked at Xiao Qing again, but they didn't see anything special about her, including Zhang Hai, the head of the Summoning Department.
He couldn't help but wonder, what does the principal mean by this?
"You guys," the old man shook his head, somewhat disappointed. He pointed at Xiaoqing and said, "Just feel that feather robe carefully and you'll know."
Feathered Robe?
Su Ming looked back and sent his spiritual energy through Yu Yi, but he couldn't sense anything.
Su Ming couldn't sense it, but that didn't mean the mentors couldn't. Some of the mentors had higher cultivation levels and stronger mental power, and they finally discovered some clues while observing the feather robe.
Summoning Department Head Zhang Hai stared wide-eyed at the old principal, somewhat incredulous, with a hint of disbelief: "This is... an Elemental Holy Spirit?"
Elemental Holy Spirit?
Su Ming was slightly taken aback. Wasn't this something that only existed in the magical plane?
I've heard that Xiaoqing is an unusual life form born from an extremely rich environment, and that she is an elemental spirit?
