Mo Fan left the Awakening Room. However, he did not bother paying double the fee, as Guo Liyu had babbled about.

Mui Nujiao was waiting patiently outside. She rose to her feet as soon as she saw Mo Fan. She asked with great anticipation, “How was it? What Elements did you Awaken?”

“Earth and Chaos, not bad!” Mo Fan answered happily.

Mui Nujiao was quite happy for Mo Fan, yet when she heard the Elements he had Awakened, she twisted her lips with a gloomy expression, “Those Elements are just not bad for you? I would be dancing around in joy if I were you!”

“Why don’t you perform an erotic dance for me to celebrate it?” Mo Fan replied immediately.

“I don’t know how!”

“You can learn, the kind that involves slowly taking off your clothes as you dance… ugh, I’m just kidding,” Mo Fan stopped talking when he noticed the look in her eyes.

Mo Fan paid the fee. He was about to leave when he suddenly recalled something.

“By the way, I have a little servant girl. Can you help with her Awakening, too?” Mo Fan asked.

“What level is she?” Guo Liyu asked.

“She has never done the Awakening,” Mo Fan admitted.

“Oh, I’ll do it for free, then. Bring her here. Xiao Mian, I’ll leave it to you,” Guo Liyu casually assigned his disciple to do the job.

Mo Fan found a remote corner and Summoned Apas.

Apas had sleepy eyes when she showed up in front of Mo Fan. She said unwillingly, “What now? I was sleeping!”

“Didn’t you want to learn magic? I’ve arranged someone to help you with your Awakening,” Mo Fan told her firmly.

“For real?” Apas’ eyes widened immediately, glittering with anticipation.

“Why would I lie to you? Let’s go!”

Apas was extremely happy. Right now, she would not even care if Mo Fan had Summoned her in the men’s washroom. She quickly followed behind Mo Fan, as if she was worried that he would regret his decision.

—

Mo Fan brought Apas into the Awakening Room. Mui Nujiao was rather confused. How did Mo Fan bring her here so quickly? Not to mention she was a little beauty…

“Go with her. Xiao Mian, she doesn’t know much, so please explain the process thoroughly to her,” Mo Fan said loftily.

“Sure thing. Come with me.”

Xiao Mian brought Apas into the Awakening Room, while Mo Fan and Mui Nujiao waited outside. Mui Nujiao was looking at Mo Fan with a weird expression. She was obviously wondering about the relationship between Mo Fan and Apas.

“I was wondering why you were away for so long. It seems like you were having fun with such a little beauty in other countries,” Mui Nujiao grumbled.

“Why does everyone say the same thing? Do I really look like that kind of a guy?” Mo Fan protested.

“Perhaps!” Mui Nujiao giggled.

Xiao Mian brought Apas out from the room while they were talking. Her Awakening did not take long.

“How was it?” Mo Fan asked.

“Not bad, she has Awakened the Plant Element, but her Plant Element is a little… Anyway, it’s the Plant Element!” Xiao Mian informed them.

Apas’ face was full of joy. She had not really thought she could learn magic, and she was quite fond of the Plant Element, too!

“Oh, Jiaojiao, aren’t you an expert of the Plant Element? Why don’t you teach her the basics?” Mo Fan asked on a whim.

“Sure, I’m more or less a teacher too,” Mui Nujiao agreed.

—

By the time they got back to the apartment, Apas managed to melt Mui Nujiao’s heart by constantly calling her sister. She ended up teaching Apas the basics of the Plant Element overnight.

Apas was truly interested in magic. Mui Nujiao decided to bring her to the Pearl Institute’s training grounds to teach her some practical skills.

Mo Fan found himself a training ground to practice his magic, too.

The Chaos Element was indeed a lot harder to control than other Elements. Mo Fan had managed to complete the Star Orbit of the Basic Earth Spell after just two attempts, but he did not make any progress in trying to control the Stars of the Chaos Element for an entire day.

That being said, Mo Fan was not in a rush. He already knew it would take him some time to familiarize himself with the Stars of the Chaos Element. He still needed to practice his Earth Element, and his boosted Lightning Element, too!

His Lightning Element now had twenty-four hundred and one Stars, which had to combine into a magnificent Star Palace. It was a huge project! Luckily, Little Loach had advanced to the next level too, so Mo Fan’s cultivation speed and rate of gaining control over the Stars had multiplied once again. Without Little Loach, he seriously wondered how long it would take for him to control all twenty-four hundred and one Stars.

“Hey, you there, are you interested in a friendly duel?” a voice interrupted Mo Fan’s thoughts.

Mo Fan was currently in a public training area. The place was quite spacious. A few students of the Pearl Institute were practicing their Elemental Magic not far away.

Mo Fan initially thought the person was talking to someone else, so he simply ignored them. However, he realized the person was actually talking to him when he saw a young man with greasy hair approaching him.

“You’re challenging me to a duel?” Mo Fan pointed at himself.

“Is there anybody else here? Yes or no, just say it, stop being a little b**ch!” the student said impatiently.

“What are the rules?” Mo Fan asked.

“Just a normal duel with our spells. Don’t tell me you have no idea what the rules are, you don’t look like a new student to me!” the student harrumphed.

“I know the rules. Bring it on, then! I would like to try my new Element out too,” Mo Fan nodded.

It was boring and ineffective for him to practice his spells on some dummies. He was glad that someone had volunteered to be his moving punching bag!

“New Element? So you’re an Intermediate Mage… I don’t want to be a bully, either. I’m Zeng Tong from the Fire School. What’s your name? Which school are you in?” Zeng Tong said.

“I…I’m Fan Mo from the Earth School, nice to meet you!” Mo Fan smiled. The sand under his feet began to shake.

The student noticed Mo Fan preparing for the duel. He glanced at the slow-moving sand and said with a disdainful grin, “It seems like you have been slacking a lot. Your Earth Element isn’t that impressive.”

“I only learned it recently,” Mo Fan agreed shamelessly.

“Very well, I shall show you the true strength of the Earth Element, then!” Zeng Tong felt extremely confident, and stomped the ground with his right foot. The sand immediately became restless, and overwhelmed the Earth Wave that Mo Fan was controlling!

Zeng Tong’s primary Element was Fire, his secondary Element was Earth. Mo Fan’s Earth Element was simply too slow and gentle compared to Zeng Tong’s Earth Element. Mo Fan was indeed just a beginner!
