Demons are extremely sensitive to magic devices, and Zhou Min's action immediately made the One-Eyed Magic Wolf abandon Jiang Yuan and Mo Fan and rush straight towards her.
Zhou Min was so frightened by the One-Eyed Magic Wolf that she froze in place, her mind a blank.
"Triple Ice Spear!"
"Fire Burst – Bone Incineration!"
Two magic spells flew in just in time. An ice spear pierced through the One-Eyed Magic Wolf's spine, pinning it firmly onto the ruins, followed by a torrent of flames that instantly engulfed the One-Eyed Magic Wolf.
Seeing that the One-Eyed Magic Wolf was still struggling, Jiang Yuan conjured another ice spear, which pierced directly into its skull from above. The One-Eyed Magic Wolf finally became completely still after a tremor.
All of this happened within a few breaths.
The terrifying demon, which made people unable to resist, was dealt with as easily as cutting vegetables.
Zhou Min was still in place, her pupils reflecting the blazing fire.
"Easy peasy," Mo Fan said smugly, blowing on his fingers.
A wisp of wolf soul drifted out from the One-Eyed Magic Wolf's corpse. The Little Loach immediately became scalding hot, showing great desire for the wolf soul.
At this moment, Jiang Yuan had already walked in front of the wolf soul and collected it in the blink of an eye.
Mo Fan wore a bitter expression, constantly suppressing the protesting Little Loach.
"My ancestor, we must keep our word."
"I had previously promised Jiang Yuan that whoever killed the demon would get the spoils."
"Next time, next time I will definitely strike first!"
Finally, under Mo Fan's persistent persuasion, the Little Loach quieted down. Mo Fan came to Jiang Yuan's side: "Where did you get that Soul Vessel? That's worth several million!"
"This?" Jiang Yuan said casually, "Last time I sold an essence soul and some remnant souls, and then I bought it."
"Don't you have one too?"
Mo Fan was about to say he was inhumanly rich, but hearing the last sentence, he could only give an awkward laugh.
"You… you killed the One-Eyed Magic Wolf?" Zhou Min asked in disbelief, as if waking from a dream.
Jiang Yuan said, "If there's no accident, it should be dead. The One-Eyed Magic Wolf has a strong territorial awareness, so no other demons should be alive nearby. Now that the One-Eyed Magic Wolf is dead, your grandmother should be safe."
"However, I still advise the elderly to move quickly, otherwise, even without demons, there's a great danger if some place collapses or falls one day."
"Oh, oh, oh." Zhou Min nodded repeatedly.
During the last outdoor training, they only managed to pass because Jiang Yuan and Mo Fan killed the Wolf Beast.
She originally thought, like many others in her class, that the summoned beast was suppressed by the summoner, which was why it was killed.
Now it seems, Jiang Yuan's Ice System… Ice System?
Wasn't Jiang Yuan awakened to the Water System?
At this moment, Zhou Min suddenly realized something was amiss and asked, "How did you use Ice System magic just now?"
Jiang Yuan had a bit of a headache; he always had to explain his innate talent to people.
"Maybe I should just reveal it directly one day. It's not some heaven-defying talent anyway. In terms of heaven-defying level, even Dongfang Lie's innate talent is far inferior."
Dongfang Lie's mutated Spark talent allows his Fire System magic to be one level higher.
This means he doesn't need to use a Monarch-level essence soul to strengthen his magic to level seven; he only needs to use a Commander-level one to strengthen it to level six.
Monarch-level ones are not many, but Commander-level ones are as numerous as ox hair!
"This is my innate talent; I can control the temperature of Water System magic. The ice spear magic just now was actually Water Magic - Water Barrier frozen." Jiang Yuan explained.
"Ah!" Zhou Min exclaimed, then looked at Jiang Yuan with an expression of adoration, finding him more and more handsome the more she looked.
She had completely, utterly become a fangirl.
Mo Fan "tsk-ed" when he saw this.
While the three were doing cleanup, the City Hunter Squad arrived slowly, but there was only one person.
It was squad member Li Wenjie, a Wind System mage.
"Why are the City Hunter Squad members so slow, and why did they only send one person? I'm going to report this to the Hunter Union!" Zhou Min said indignantly.
If Jiang Yuan hadn't been there, she would have been eaten by the One-Eyed Magic Wolf long ago.
Must report!
Wind System mages have very sensitive hearing. Hearing Zhou Min's complaint, Li Wenjie asked in confusion, "Haven't two members of our City Hunter Squad already arrived? Jiang Yuan, Mo Fan, what's going on?"
Zhou Min was a little confused by this.
Mo Fan said, "Let me tell you, don't tell anyone at school. Jiang Yuan and I actually joined the City Hunter Squad a long time ago."
"Oh, and the City Hunter Squad isn't under the Hunter Union's jurisdiction. It's jointly organized by the Magic Association and the municipal government. If you want to report, it's best to go to the Magic Association."
"Oi! How can you openly incite others to report your own team? Don't you want your bonus?!" Li Wenjie interrupted.
"I was just spreading some knowledge," Mo Fan said awkwardly.
"Brother Jie, find someone to drag the One-Eyed Magic Wolf away directly. Also, have someone investigate why this kind of demon appeared inside the city, and why its size is abnormal," Jiang Yuan reminded him.
"You two are truly becoming more and more monstrous. Demons that used to require our entire squad to deal with, you two resolved easily. You truly are formidable youths; I'm afraid we'll have to rely on you two in the future!" Li Wenjie exclaimed with emotion.
The gap between people is inherently huge, let alone mages.
At the same rank, the difference in mages' skill can be like heaven and earth.
...
Li Wenjie stayed on Banyan Tree Street to deal with the One-Eyed Magic Wolf. Jiang Yuan said goodbye and headed straight for the East District.
As soon as he returned to his room, he closed the door, not even bothering to sit on the sofa, and sat directly on the floor, his expression solemn.
In Jiang Yuan's spiritual space, the Water System Stardust was more restless than ever before. The seven stars moved rapidly, like a chaotic blue meteor shower.
Just as he killed the One-Eyed Magic Wolf, Jiang Yuan felt the Mid-level bottleneck loosen, and the Water System Stardust uncontrollably wanted to expand.
Jiang Yuan didn't rush to break through at the time, waiting until he returned home to formally release the restrictions on the Stardust.
He concentrated his mind and gently pushed at the critical point of the Stardust's expansion.
In an instant, it was as if surging waves roared in his ears. The great waves crashed, and the Stardust instantly spread into a vast, brilliant nebula.
Immediately after, forty-two new stars were generated around the seven original stars.
A total of forty-nine stars danced joyfully.
Jiang Yuan opened his eyes.
Water System Mid-level!
Feeling this dreamlike Water System Nebula, Jiang Yuan's heart was filled with excitement.
He had been wondering earlier in the day when he would break through, and he didn't expect to become a Mid-level mage that very night.
In the small Bo City, a Mid-level mage was already considered a significant figure, possessing considerable influence.
Advancing to Mid-level, Jiang Yuan could also undergo another magic awakening at the Magic Association.
He was very much looking forward to what magic system he would awaken this time.
Jiang Yuan always had a premonition that he would awaken two magic systems this time as well.
Without further ado, he would go to the Magic Association for awakening tomorrow.
There was no need to buy a guide stone either; he would leave everything to fate.
The main reason was that the guide stone for the Dimensional Magic he wanted to awaken was too expensive, and Bo City didn't have high-quality awakening stones, so the success rate was too low.
Simply put, it wasn't worth it.
Ultimately, it was a lack of money that limited him.
Jiang Yuan sighed, no longer thinking about the guide stone, and began to diligently control the new Water System stars.
