Versatile Mage c1-2021, page 56
Bai Yang was so excited that he took a few steps forward, he practically wanted to snatch the Underground Holy Spring from Mo Fan’s hands. Unfortunately, he didn’t see where the Underground Holy Spring was .
Mo Fan attentively watched Bai Yang and said, “It is also very safe with me, it’s better if I personally give it to Boss Zhankong, please hurry and guide us on the way, Instructor Bai Yang.”
Bai Yang was clearly stunned, followed by his face filled with a smile, “That makes sense…”
It was clear that Bai Yang hadn’t finished talking, he slightly stopped. The warm smile he had on his face instantly froze, his gaze suddenly displayed an ominous glint. His face actually seemed somewhat twisted.
“Then, you can go and die!” Bai Yang coldly said.
As his voice faded, the incredibly meek Spirit Wolf suddenly took a big stride toward Mo Fan. Its sharp claws were raised, it was actually going to slam right into Mo Fan.
As this unexpected thing happened, everyone was completely dumbstruck.
“Mo Fan!” Zhoumin cried out in alarm, yet she could only helplessly watch as the Spirit Wolf’s heavy claw was about to seize Mo Fan’s life.
“Instructor Bai, what are you doing!?” Xue Musheng shouted loudly.
Bai Yang completely ignored him. His Spirit Wolf didn’t have the slightest intention of being lenient.
Not a single student would be able to survive from an attack from this distance.
_Swooosh!!!_
As the claws slammed down, it seemed to carry the anger of Bai Yang within it. After all, his previous Spirit Wolf was killed by Mo Fan, and now he finally had the opportunity to take revenge for that.
Naturally, taking revenge was just one part of it. The Underground Holy Spring was the more important reason. If he give it to the Red Cloaked Deacons, then this Bo City would also...
_How...How is this possible!?_
Bai Yang was expecting the boy’s blood to dye his entire body. However, a solid Bone Scythe Shield was erected right in front of Mo Fan. The Spirit Wolf’s claws slammed onto the Bone Scythe Shield, causing both Mo Fan and the shield to be struck flying without claiming his life!
Bone Scythe Shield! Bai Yang clearly remembered this was something given to Mo Fan by Zhankong. The question was, how did this kid have the time to prepare? He shouldn’t have had the time to activate his Magic Equipment when suddenly attacked at this distance, unless he was already suspicious about Bai Yang’s identity!
After the Bone Scythe Shield had blocked a heavy claw strike, it turned into numerous bone splinters as it dispersed into nothing. Mo Fan, who was knocked ten or so meters away, also stabilized his body.
Raising his head, Mo Fan’s face was stern. The heaving of his c.h.e.s.t displayed his current rage.
As expected, this Instructor Bai Yang did have a problem.
“F***king sh**!” Mo Fan spat as he ruthlessly cursed.
“Hahaha, who would’ve thought? I can’t help but be curious as to why you are suspicious about me. I’m your instructor, after all.” Bai Yang began to madly laugh. The gentle and attractive appearance from before had now turned into a twisted lunatic, no longer having the admirable light which caused infatuated the young women!
At this kind of time, how could Mo Fan be in the mood of explaining to this spy of Black Vatican about this kind of stuff.
His gaze swept past his companions who were standing to the sides as he hastily shouted to them, “Be careful, this guy’s summoned beasts are not alone…”
Instructor Bai Yang’s face immediately sank, an ominous glint in his eyes flashed.
On the other side of the bridge, two slowly wiggling shadows quickly flew out. Their particularly sharp, long, and narrow forelimbs were like two sickles chopping toward Zhang Xiaohou and He Yu that were closest to them!
Bai Yang’s sudden betrayal came too quickly. The others were unable to react, much less to speak of being mindful of the two creatures that had jumped out from the two sides of the bridge.
With a ghastly monkey face and an abnormal human body, its body was completely black. It looked as though it was wearing some kind of tight leather clothing. Extremely ugly, this was precisely the symbol of Black Vatican, a Dark Beast Monster!
Mo Fan saw one of the Dark Beast Monsters was jumping toward Zhang Xiaohou, his heart began to beat fiercely.
Currently, he really wanted to finish his Star Path in less than a second and directly turn that Dark Beast Monster into dregs. However, his magic casting speed was not that fast.
In the end, Zhang Xiaohou was still somewhat pure. He couldn’t be like Mo Fan, who already had a wariness toward Instructor Bai Yang. If it was any other student, then they also wouldn’t have any bit of suspicion toward their own instructor.
He wasn’t able to cast his Wind Track this time, and when he turned around, he had already discovered that the incredibly ugly black creature had already pounced in front of him...
_Am I gonna die like this?_
Zhang Xiaohou was unable to believe this.
He had gone through the dreadful three kilometer route of death with Brother Fan, and was close to arriving after overcoming great difficulties. In the end, he was going to die at the hands of his own instructor.
Zhang Xiaohou closed his eyes.
_Puuuchii~_
The warm blood suddenly sprinkled over his face, Zhang Xiaohou’s heart felt helpless.
_This animal has opened my c.h.e.s.t, its speed was so quick that I felt the blood sprinkling on my face before feeling my c.h.e.s.t being shredded open._
After one more second, Zhang Xiaohou still didn’t feel any pain. He was puzzled as he opened his eyes.
As he opened his eyes, he had discovered that the ghastly beast that was attacking him had been sent flying away and had slammed heavily into a motorcycle.
_I didn’t die?_
_Then this blood..._
Zhang Xiaohou turned his head around, his entire being stunned.
That was a deathly pale face, it was cold and dismal and it made people want to hold her in their arms.
Blood was spurting from her body, it was warm, it was so warm that it caused Zhang Xaiohou’s entire being to burn.

Chapter 103 - Battling Spirit Wolf Again
“He...He Yu!!”
Zhang Xiaohou wanted to scream out from the depths of his throat, however, his throat was blocked by a fierce pain, unable to make a sound.
Numerous water droplets were sprinkling in front of Zhang Xiaohou, they were like He Yu’s life as they fell onto the ground and quickly dispersed.
“Wind Track! Wind Track! Wind Track!!!”
Zhang Xiahou tried to connect his Star Path while his heart was feeling a fierce pain, and at last, a wind coiled around his body.
Using the Wind Track, Zhang Xiaohou frantically stole the completely bloodstained He Yu from the other Dark Beast Monster’s claws.
Relying on Flash Steps, he carried He Yu as he darted to a location far away. However, the blood was also sprinkling all over the ground...
It was completely unable to stop. A Dark Beast Monster was specialized in slaughtering, capable of accurately finding a creature’s arteries. Once it cut, the blood would certainly flow without stopping.
“Why did you use Water Barrier to protect me, you should’ve protected yourself! You’re not even able to protect yourself, you blockhead!!”
“Mr. Xue, please hurry and save He Yu, I beg you, please save her! There must be a way!”
“Shit, shit, shit, I will slaughter you bastard!”
The sound of the shouts fell into everyone’s ears, just like how everyone never thought that Instructor Bai Yang was someone from the Black Vatican, they never thought that He Yu would protect Zhang Xiaohou like this. Captivating scarlet blood was everywhere. Upon seeing it, everyone’s heart tightened.
Zhang Xiaohou held He Yu, and He Yu looked back at him. Her pale face was turning purple.
Her eyes were wide open, her black pupils contained a mix of feelings in the last moments of her life. Perhaps it was a trace of gratification because she was able to finally cast Water Barrier in a critical situation and protect a person’s life according to what Mr. Xue had said. There was also peace, the skinny boy in front of her risked his own life to save her during Practicals and today, she had also saved him. But most importantly, it was yearning; like other girls, she had far too many wishes which hadn’t been fulfilled yet.
“Hahaha, it seems like you brats have also progressed a bit. I thought that the second Dark Beast Monsters made their move, the two of you would definitely lose your lives, I never thought that one of you would survive. However, your Instructor, I, have taught you one more lesson, and that is to never trust someone that easily. Unfortunately, this could very well be the last class of your life, because none of you will live to cross this bridge!” Bai Yang stood in the center as he shouted, looking quite demented.
As he was talking about surviving, the two Dark Beast Monsters once again pounced toward the other students.
The Dark Beast Monster’s physique was not much different from humans. Their speed was twice as fast as Colossal-eyed Ape Rat, and once they scuttled into a shadowy place, it would be too difficult to see their figure.
This kind of excessively nimble creature could be called the executioner of rookie Magicians. They were capable of killing you with a single attack before you could finish casting your Magic, and they could easily avoid the frantic attack of a Magician!
“Retreat!” Xue Musheng shouted.
Everyone had just experienced how formidable Dark Beast Monsters were. Once they approached any of the students, the next moment, they could become like He Yu; unable to stop bleeding.
On the other side, the robust Spirit Wolf was precisely obstructing Mo Fan by standing in front of him. This savage creature most likely had hurt itself immensely after striking his Shield, and was unable to attack Mo Fan again for a short period of time. Nevertheless, it used its pair of vicious eyes to deathly stare at Mo Fan.
Mo Fan was breathing fiercely, his c.h.e.s.t heaving. After hearing Zhang Xiaohou’s grieving scream, a raging fire began to fiercely burn within his abdomen.
From He Yu’s perspective, seeing Instructor Bai Yang was equivalent to being safe. However, who would’ve thought that Instructor Bai Yang was actually even more ruthless than a Magical Beast. Seeing his face still ridiculing them, it made him to really want to smash his fist into the man’s face!
“Roaaaar~!”
The Spirit Wolf opened its mouth, and from within the depths of its throat something was surging. Following the roar, a turbid air wave viciously drove toward Mo Fan.
Flying Sand Stones!
This was Spirit Wolf’s special skill. Even if it could not use its claws, it could still attack the enemy from afar.
The scathing yellow Flying Sand Stones were flying over, but Mo Fan was already well prepared. He nimbly rolled to the side and quickly hid himself behind an abandoned van.
The Van’s steel layer began to shriek as the Flying Sand Stones hit its surface, the rocks penetrated through the van and left behind numerous holes. The entire van began to shake repeatedly.
Mo Fan leaned against the van with his back, his eyes was already emitting purple radiance. This radiance turned increasingly stronger, and began to form a beautiful streaking purple Star Path around Mo Fan’s body.
The seven stars were dazzling within the Star Path, they were transmitting Lightning to each other and quickly condensed into a raging and twisting Lightning pattern around Mo Fan’s body.
“Hu!”
Mo Fan let out a long breath, he turned around before the Flying Sand Stones had completely stopped. He directly faced the Spirit Wolf.
“I slaughtered a thing like you an year ago, and today, I will kill you like a dog!” Mo Fan said in rage, and in his eyes was not a single trace of fear.
He raised one of his hands, and suddenly clenched his fist, a command of Lightning was passed. The agitated and unstable Lightning Elements in the air turned into an indignant sharp weapon as they fell on the Spirit Wolf.
The Spirit Wolf attempted to evade, but Mo Fan had already predicted the place it would be when it dodged.
Lightning Strike: Wrath Shock inherited the transitive effects of Lightning Strike: Mad Whip. As long as a single Lightning arc came in contact with the Spirit Wolf, then the rest of the Lightning Strike would be absorbed into the target’s body like a magnet as it was ferociously scourged and the Lightning ruthlessly penetrated into its flesh!
There were many purple Lightning arcs. They covered the entire body of Spirit Wolf, and it incessantly emitted a painful howl.
The Spirit Wolf’s movement capabilities immediately disappeared, it was no longer able to approach Mo Fan with a single step.
Mo Fan coldly smiled. Not seconds after he cast Lightning Strike, a scarlet radiance flashed within his pupils. Not knowing when, his other hand was actually already holding a ball of flames.
First, Lightning!
And then Fire!
The godforsaken Spirit Wolf was about to have a taste of the two Magics that held the strongest power within the realm of Elements.
His anger was like fire and lightning, the ball of flames in his hands was thrown by him in anger. Everyone could see that the ball of Fire Burst was directly thrown toward the mouth of the Spirit Wolf that was howling in pain.
After a great amount of practice and real experience, Mo Fan was able to cast the Fire Burst even more accurately. As expected, the small ball of fire immediately struck the head of the Spirit Wolf that was slightly raising its muzzle, and then floated into its mouth.
“Rupture!” Mo Fan’s gaze was like a torch as he said this, his control of the third level of Fire Burst’s Rupture had achieved a complete synchronization.
The small fireball did not look very strong at all. However, it ignited after Mo Fan’s cry, and exploded mightily within the mouth of the Spirit Wolf

Chapter 104 - I Want To Become Stronger
The strength of the rupturing wave of flames instantly burned into the Spirit Wolf’s muzzle. You could distinctly see the Spirit Wolf’s mouth bones severely deform, and furthermore, its jaws were quickly swallowed by the fierce flames.
The fire didn’t stop there. It tyrannically expanded down the Spirit Wolf’s throat, and crammed into the Spirit Wolf’s abdomen. This caused its belly to immediately bulge, it looked as though it was going to explode.
_Booooooom!_
A loud sound finally erupted, and the vicious Spirit Wolf was turned into grilled, stinking meat by the Rupture exploding inside it. Its body landed heavily in front of Bai Yang.
Bai Yang’s sardonic smile immediately turned stagnant. His gloominess fell to a terrifying level.
His previous Spirit Wolf’s bloodline was superior to this one, and he’d been able to nurture it into an extremely powerful summoned creature, but it was accidentally killed by a Practical student. The killing that time could be said to have used all kind of tricks. The Spirit Wolf this time was directly bombarded by his opponent’s powerful dual Elements Magic.
“I admit that you are indeed different from the majority of the students whose limbs turn weak when they encounter a Magical Beast. You’re not worse than any other veteran magicians. However, you will still die! I will use your corpse to feed my next summoned beast!” Bai Yang covered his c.h.e.s.t with one of his arms, his face ghastly pale as his twitched uncontrollably.
In the end, that Bai Yang underestimated this student. Lightning Strike: Wrath Shock and a Fire Burst: Rupture might be able to heavily wound a Spirit Wolf in normal circ.u.mstances, but would not be able to directly kill it. This student had his Fire Burst enter the mouth of the Spirit Wolf and instantly slaughtered the Spirit Wolf. This kind of handiwork was not something a normal student would think of, or was capable of doing!
However, so what if the Spirit Wolf died? As long as he got his hands on the Underground Holy Spring, he, Bai Yang’s, status would be completely different. For a great Summoner like him, by then, a tiny Spirit Wolf would no longer be good enough for his standards.
“You two, kill him!” Bai Yang’s gaze turned cold as he viciously ordered the two Dark Beast Monsters.
The Dark Beast Monsters were chasing other people when they heard their master’s command, and immediately turned toward Mo Fan.
The Dark Beast Monsters are much more nimble than Spirit Wolf. They are able to directly jump from the roof of vehicles, and they could use the cars to continuously change their locations.
The two Dark Beast Monsters clearly knew how to cooperate to hunt for their prey. They divided to the two sides of Mo Fan. Even if Mo Fan used Lightning Strike to suppress one of them, the other Dark Beast Monster would certainly pounce on Mo Fan and cut his throat!
The two Dark Beast Monsters was getting closer and closer. Mo Fan, who didn’t have the Bone Scythe Shield anymore, only had the time to complete a single Magic Star Path.
Mo Fan didn’t have the time to think too much as he didn’t have enough time, Mo Fan subconsciously condensed one more ball of Fire.
The rupturing effect of Fire Burst could maybe allow him to slightly dodge this. It was just that dealing with these two extremely fast Dark Beast Monsters after that would be very hard to do.
“Mr. Xue, cast Brilliant Light!” Mu Bai shouted toward Xue Musheng from not too far away.
Xue Musheng glanced at Mu Bai, and realized his hands had a quickly condensing blue star radiance. The experienced and knowledgeable Xue Musheng immediately understood, and began to cast his own Light Magic without hesitation.
Brilliant Light: Blind!
If he properly cast this immensely strong radiance, it would be able to blind one of the Magical Beasts and make it lose its combat prowess.
Feeling the strong radiance appearing, Bai Yang slowly turned his face to the other side, displaying some disdain.
