Versatile Mage

Thanks to his bloodline, the possibility of him awakening Ice Element was very high.
However, there could also be exceptional circumstances.
If he awakened the Water or Light Element then the Mu Family was unlikely to continue attaching any importance to him.
After all, there was no way they would waste their finances just so they could find resources suitable to a different attribute.

He placed his left hand on the stone…

The Awakening Stone suddenly emanated a starry radiance.
This radiance turned into strips of star marks that appeared to be an extraordinary vein as it landed on Mu Bai’s left hand.

This was everyone’s first time seeing the awakening with their own eyes; the students were all tiptoeing as they watched Mu Bai.

Mu Bai was standing there unmoving, as though he was suddenly enlightened.
He then raised his head slowly…

“Creak, creak, creak~~~~”

A sudden frosty air curled itself around the Awakening Stone.

The air became more and more dense.
It actually slowly froze the surface of the Awakening Stone, forming a layer of frost!

“Ice Element! It really is the Ice Element!!!”

Suddenly, a person behind him began yelling.
Following this yell, a few girls screeched.

As Mu Bai heard the noises, he opened his eyes in joy!

It’s actually the Ice Element! With the Ice Element, it would be easier for him to be taken in by the Mu Family.
The day where he would soar through the skies was not far.
To deal with someone like Mo Fan, the dreg of the society, would be like pinching an ant to death… Ah, that’s not right. After awakening the Ice Element, I will become an official disciple of the Mu Family.
There is no reason for me to lower myself to the level of a beggar.

I need to set my standards higher.
Who knows? I might even have an opportunity to cultivate together with Mu Ningxue!

“Very good.
It is a very pure Ice Element.
I believe an Ice Element Star Dust should be appearing within your Spiritual World.
Cultivate harder, and make it grow even stronger!” the homeroom teacher said, with eyes full of praise.

The ability to freeze the Awakening Stone during the awakening meant that the power of his Ice Element surpassed the average person.
He was likely to be a very talented Ice Element apprentice, and his future was very promising!

“Next, Qiu Yueying!”

After the homeroom teacher said this, a girl with a somewhat confident look on her face came over.

“Alright, Earth Element.
The power of your stardust isn’t bad at all.
It seems like the effort you’ve put in is showing!”

“Next, Xu Qinglin!”

“Also Ice Element.”

At this moment, Mo Fan tiptoed to watch.
He discovered that the person who also awakened the Ice Element, Xu Qinglin, caused a layer of faint frosty mist to emerge.
It did not freeze the Awakening Stone though.

From this, one could tell that even if this was the Ice Element, Xu Qinglin’s talent and cultivation was much lower than Mu Bai.

“Next, Lu Xiaobing.”

“Hm, Water Element!”

“Ahhh, oh my god, how could I be Water Element? I should be a Fire Element!” suddenly, the classmate called ‘Lu Xiaobing’ called out in bewilderment.
The people within the circumference of a hundred Mi heard this.

“Don’t be discouraged.
No matter what Element you cultivate, as long as you can become an Intermediate-level Mage, you will obtain even more recognition.”

Lu Xiaobing had no other choice.
He could only return to his own seat in low spirits.

In fact, the awakening in the beginning was very important.
If it was a Fire Element, then one could possess a certain level of combat prowess as a Primary-level Magician.
That allowed future cultivation to happen much more easily.

The Primary-level Water Element skill was ‘Water Shield,’ and its defensive power was not as strong as the Earth Element.
If one was not proficient in it, then the effects were not very clear.
At the very least, that’s how it worked among the Primary-rank Mages.
