Chapter 81 Entrance Examination, Two Colleges Compete
"Do you want the Spirit Seed or not? If you don't refine the Rose Flame soon, it will dissipate quickly," Tang Yue said angrily through gritted teeth.
"Alright." Jiang Han nodded and walked towards the gushing rose flame. Upon reaching the rose flame, Jiang Han condensed flames in his hands and reached into the rose flame. Immediately afterward, Jiang Han felt the crimson flame energy surging into his body from the rose flame.
「龙炎吞噬玫炎,进度10%、20%、30%·····90%、100%」
"Successfully devoured, Dragon Flame (3x amplification effect, awaiting fusion)"
After Long Yan devoured Mei Yan, the crimson flames outside dissipated. Spiritual seeds are gifts from heaven and earth; even if no one refines and absorbs them, they will dissipate into the world.

After leaving Xishui Town, Jiang Han took a high-speed train to Mingzhu. After several hours, he arrived in Mingzhu city. On the train, he sent a message to Xin Xia saying that he had reported to Mingzhu and that she could contact him by phone if needed.
He initially applied for the lightning magic school, not the strongest ice magic school. At Pearl Academy, one of the top magic schools in the country, if your strength isn't up to par, you absolutely won't be accepted, regardless of whether you're a lightning magic school.
There is an assessment during freshman registration, which mainly tests cultivation level and the release and application of skills.
Sending Xin Xia to register delayed Jiang Han's reporting time, preventing him from going through the formal assessment process. Fortunately, he had Mo Fan report to the school beforehand the reason for his late reporting: sending his girlfriend to register and being late—what a ridiculous excuse! If Dean Xiao hadn't said he would personally assess Jiang Han, he probably would have been kicked off the reporting list long ago.
It was precisely because of his dual-system nature that the higher-ups at Mingzhu Academy agreed to give Jiang Han an opportunity for entrance examination. Otherwise, given that Jiang Han failed to report on time, even if he were to be admitted smoothly, he would definitely receive a disciplinary warning.
Upon arriving at the testing hall, Jiang Han walked straight in and found that the five examiners were already sitting there.
Sitting in the middle was a white-haired old man with a ruddy complexion, presumably Dean Xiao of Mingzhu Academy. On either side of him sat the directors of the Thunder and Fire departments, as well as two instructors.
"What a hassle! I have to wait for him? Who does he think he is?" The fat man, who had been waiting impatiently for a while, said irritably.
The elderly man who looked like a butler next to the fat man said respectfully, "Young Master Luo, this is Pearl River Delta, not Shanghai. Besides, the student you are competing with today seems to be born with dual attributes. Such talents are rare even in the capital."
"Old Li, is being born with dual elements really that impressive? Without resources to aid his cultivation, how far can he go? He'll probably struggle even to reach the mid-level," Luo Song said dismissively, curling his lip.
"Yes, yes, no, how can he compare to Young Master Luo without cultivation resources?" Butler Old Li said with a beaming smile.
Luo Song's family, Luo family, is based in the capital. He came to Mingzhu to study to prove to his father that he was no worse than others. However, when he arrived to register, he encountered a guy who was competing with him for a spot. Therefore, before the assessment, Luo Song asked his butler, Lao Li, to investigate information about Jiang Han. After investigating for a long time, he only found out that Jiang Han was born with dual systems.
If Jiang Han hadn't made no attempt to hide it, Old Li would have had to pay a hefty price to uncover the truth.
"Alright, Lao Li, you've been scolded. I came to Pearl Academy this time to put those arrogant guys to shame. Do they really think that just because they have dual-elemental abilities, they're qualified to compete with me?"
"Alright, Young Master Luo, I hope you don't cause any big trouble." Seeing that Luo Song had already said this, Butler Li didn't dare to persuade him any further.
Upon entering the trial hall, Jiang Han chuckled when he caught sight of the fat guy, Luo Song. He hadn't expected that Mo Fan's early enrollment would lead him to encounter this fat guy. He wondered if the fat guy would provoke him later; he really wanted to punch him.
He was very unhappy about what happened with Tang Yue and needed to vent his anger on someone, and that fat guy Luo Song was just right.
Sitting to Dean Xiao's right, Han Bin, the head of the Ice Department, was the first to ask, "You're Jiang Han, the one who never reports on time?"
"Yes, I am Jiang Han," Jiang Han replied calmly.
"Alright, let's proceed with the nebula strength test." After Han Bin finished speaking, a mentor led Jiang Han to the nebula strength test.
The strength of the nebula was tested again using a Star Sensing Stone, but it was different from the one used during the Tianlan Magic High School assessment. This time, a mid-level Star Sensing Stone was used, which could determine which level a magician had reached in their third level of cultivation.
Jiang Han placed his hand on the mid-level Star Sensing Stone, closed his eyes, and immersed his consciousness in the ice-type nebula of his spiritual world. After a few minutes, a faint mist of cold air appeared on Jiang Han's body, and ice began to appear under his feet. The Star Sensing Stone emitted a dazzling sky-blue starlight, and finally, four large red characters appeared on the Star Sensing Stone: Mid-level, Level 3!
"Good, good, good. Reaching the intermediate level three at such a young age, you are truly a force to be reckoned with. Jiang Han, would you like to come to our Ice Academy?" Han Bin said with a smile. You should know that the average freshman is at the initial level three. Those with better talent might reach the intermediate level, but that is still intermediate level one. It is no match for level three.
After Jiang Han finished testing his lightning element cultivation, Shao Lei, the head of the lightning element department, said with a smile, "Han Bin, we'll take Jiang Han from our lightning academy. Besides, he applied for the lightning element, why are you from the ice academy getting involved?"
"Nonsense, with his talent in ice magic, it would be a waste for him to stay in your Thunder Academy," Han Bin said unhappily.
"Damn it, Han, what do you mean? Sending him to our Lei Academy is such a waste!" Shao Lei slammed his fist on the table and stood up.
Watching the two deans arguing fiercely over Jiang Han, the two instructors wiped the sweat from their brows, unsure what to say. Shao Lei was notoriously hot-tempered at Mingzhu Academy; if you angered him, he'd fight you on the spot. If they didn't intervene, Dean Xiao's presence and the two deans' commotion were a bit inappropriate; if they did intervene and angered Shao Lei... well...!
Advising them was one thing, not advising them was another; the two teachers accompanying the assessment were getting increasingly anxious.
Finally, Dean Xiao spoke up, and Shao Lei and Han Bin shut up, saying, "Continue with the assessment."
After the magic was released, Han Bin became even more excited when he saw that Jiang Han, an ice-type, could achieve the Star Trail in a Single Thought. This kid had to go to their Ice Academy. It would be a waste and a disservice to him to go to the Thunder Academy with that guy Shao Lei.
Jiang Han's ice magic is always ahead of other magic types. At the initial stage, he can achieve the "one thought, one star trail" technique, and at the intermediate stage, he can complete the release of intermediate magic without practicing the control of stars. All of this shows that Jiang Han has a unique talent in the ice magic.
"Quick, quick, let's try the lightning element!" Shao Lei said impatiently.
If ice magic is this powerful, then Jiang Han's lightning magic must be just as strong.
Jiang Han's lightning element did not disappoint Shao Lei. The release of Thunderbolt was no less powerful than the release of Ice Lock. The two releases made Luo Song's expression not very good. He originally wanted to come and trample on people and show off, but who knew that a dragon from the river would come.
I failed to put on a show, but thankfully I wasn't stupid enough to spout off, or I would have really lost face.
"Haha, good lad, Jiang Han, right? Come on, I'll take you to our Lei Academy." Shao Lei chuckled as he stepped down from the examiner's seat.
Shao Lei's words immediately displeased Han Bin, who angrily retorted, "Hey, Shao, what do you mean? Jiang Han was first chosen by our Ice Academy. Are you sure you want to compete with me for him?"
"What, you want to fight? Come on, let's have a go at it." Shao Lei said without any hesitation.
