On the airplane.
Fang Yu sat by the window, his eyes fixed on the boundary where the summit of Tianshan met the heavens.
There a pair of crystalline ice wings could be seen faintly in the distance. As they spread wide, they stirred up fierce gales that swept away the endless snow and ice.
The sight reminded Fang Yu of the colossal figure he had seen soaring across the skies during his journey through Tianshan.
Just what kind of existence was that?
Once his cultivation reached a higher level, he would definitely return to witness its true form and unveil the mystery surrounding it!
The airplane sped through the sky.
The next day.
Fang Yu returned to Magic City. After reporting back to Dean Xiao at Pearl Academy.
He strolled along one of the academy's pathways.
Before long, he noticed a graceful figure standing quietly on the bridge by the lakeside.
Dressed in a white dress, she resembled a flawless white rose blooming in solitude pure, elegant, and immaculate.
Ding Yumian!
He hadn't expected to run into her. His luck wasn't bad at all.
Seeing her, Fang Yu walked over and gently patted her soft shoulder.
"Long time no see."
Ding Yumian turned around. Her eyes, carrying a faint bluish tint, widened slightly in surprise when they met Fang Yu.
"Oh? You're back."
"Yeah. What are you doing here?" Fang Yu asked.
"Nothing in particular. Just taking a walk to clear my mind," Ding Yumian replied.
"Want to walk together?"
"Mm."
The two of them chatted as they strolled side by side.
A while later, they arrived at a restaurant and ordered a few dishes.
While eating, Fang Yu told her about the breathtaking snowy scenery of Tianshan. He could clearly sense the longing in Ding Yumian's eyes as she listened.
Fang Yu sighed inwardly.
Once her cultivation became strong enough for her to better control the Calamity Power of her Psychic Element.
He wanted to take her there.
If she remained cooped up in the academy all the time, like a bird trapped in a cage, she would only become more withdrawn.
After spending some more time with Ding Yumian, Fang Yu left Pearl Academy and returned to his residence.
For the time that followed, he paid little attention to anything else.
Instead, he entered secluded cultivation.
He focused on consolidating his cultivation.
A week later, after days of dedicated training, the four Star Rivers within him had become increasingly stable.
His speed in constructing Star Constellations had also become even smoother and more effortless.
At that moment, feeling the surging power within his spiritual world.
Fang Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Three Elements at the second level of the High Tier, one Element at the first level of the High Tier, who in the World College Tournament can stand against me?"
"Haha!"
Moreover, it wasn't just his cultivation that was formidable. Every one of his Magic Elements was exceptionally well-developed.

Half a month later, Fang Yu arrived in the Imperial Capital once again.
The exciting journey around the world was about to begin.
Just thinking about traveling across different nations, gathering precious resources, experiencing foreign cultures, and perhaps even having beautiful women throw themselves into his arms put him in an exceptionally good mood!
As he walked along the academy pathway, he felt as though he were floating on air.
Halfway there, he spotted a familiar figure.
Fang Yu immediately walked over.
At that moment, Mu Ningxue was walking with her head lowered, making her way toward the exit. Ever since losing her place in the World College Tournament because someone had replaced her, she had been overwhelmed with sorrow.
However, because of Mu He, she had no grounds to complain.
As the Black Vatican's Tiger Deacon, Mu He had orchestrated the catastrophe in the Ancient Capital, nearly reducing the city to ruins. Countless people had died, and his crimes had enraged the entire nation.
Not long ago, after Mu He's identity as a Black Vatican member had been exposed, even the Mu Clan had suffered tremendous losses. The Mu Family of Bo City, because of their close ties with Mu He, had been abandoned by the main Mu Clan.
Moreover her qualification for the World College Tournament had also been revoked.
"It's you."
Noticing someone blocking her path, Mu Ningxue raised her head. When she saw it was Fang Yu, she froze for a moment before saying,
"Long time no see."
"Yeah, it's been a while. Need any help?" Fang Yu replied.
"Help?" Mu Ningxue asked in confusion.
"The Ancient Capital," Fang Yu said.
"No."
Mu Ningxue refused.
Although she had no idea how Fang Yu knew about her situation, she did not feel it was appropriate to trouble anyone under her current circumstances.
Besides She did not believe Fang Yu possessed the ability to help.
Fang Yu sighed.
It seemed Mu Ningxue simply didn't believe he was capable of it.
After all, he had been one of the people who helped save the Ancient Capital. As long as he relayed the matter to Han Ji, guaranteeing Mu Ningxue's innocence would not be a problem.
However, since Mu Ningxue had declined, he had no intention of forcing the issue.
In any case, she would eventually become a reserve member of the National Team. There would be plenty of opportunities to win her favor then.
The next day.
After spending the previous night resting at a hotel, Fang Yu headed to the academy early in the morning.
Today was the day the National Team members were gathering.
The meeting place was still the Magic Duel Arena at the center of the Imperial Capital Academy.
Several young Mages were scattered around the arena. Dressed in elegant magic robes, with their cloaks fluttering in the breeze, they all looked exceptionally spirited.
"You're here."
Seeing Fang Yu approach, Nan Jue walked over and greeted him.
Since Fang Yu had rescued her during the siege in Nanling and they had fought demons together, the two of them could already be considered old acquaintances.
"Yeah, I arrived in the Imperial Capital yesterday."
Fang Yu looked at Nan Jue.
She was still the same as ever her neat short hair, stern demeanor, and commanding aura concealed her naturally outstanding feminine charm.
Rather than diminishing her attractiveness, that restraint only made others want to break through the walls around her heart.
At the same time, Ai Jiangtu also stepped forward to greet him.
"Hello, I'm Ai Jiangtu, captain of the National Team."
He was no stranger to Fang Yu. The two had already met in Magic City, and afterward he had learned more about him. Fang Yu's cultivation was unfathomably deep.
Fang Yu chatted with Ai Jiangtu and Nan Jue for a while.
A short time later.
Five instructors walked over.
Among them were Feng Li, whom Fang Yu had met before, and Song He, the Dean of the Imperial Capital Academy.
As for the other three, all of them were influential figures in their own right.
As the instructors arrived, the team members also gathered together.
Fang Yu casually took his place at the back of the group.
Since they were leaving for their training expedition, there weren't many people seeing them off, nor was there any formal ceremony.
There was no crowd watching them, so it made no difference where they stood.
"I'm delighted to see all of you emerge from so many universities as the finest young Mages. From this point onward, you will represent our nation's outstanding youth as you compete against the elite Mages of other countries. We could certainly hold a grand farewell ceremony before your international training journey begins, but I would much rather hold that ceremony after you return having brought glory to our nation. Because at that time, you will truly be the pride of our country."
Dean Song He's voice echoed clearly in the ears of all ten team members as he spoke of the bright future awaiting them.
Just as Dean Song He was describing that promising future, a wave of frigid air swept toward the gathering.
