Chapter 141 Magic Sparring
After Jiang Han, Mo Fan, and Zhao Manyan left, Dean Xiao, sitting on the sofa, murmured, "I wonder if sending that kid over was the right or wrong decision. If those old guys really dare to lay a hand on him, I'll show them what I, Xiao Mingzhu, am capable of. Why am I thinking about this? Maybe the old guys from the Jiang family will come knocking on our door before I even have to lift a finger." Dean Xiao smiled and shook his head at the end.

The next day, Jiang Han, Mo Fan, and Mu Nujiao went to school to meet up after breakfast. As for Ai Tutu, she was left alone at home. When she left, Ai Tutu cried and said she wanted to go with them. It was one thing for Sister Mu not to be there, but Jiang Han was also going to the capital, which made Ai Tutu a little anxious. She didn't crave Jiang Han himself, she just craved the food he cooked.
Ai Tutu finally begged his older brother, Ai Jiangtu, for help, and with his brother's assistance, Ai Tutu successfully joined the exchange student team, albeit as a substitute player.
This made Mo Fan extremely envious. Mo Fan exclaimed, "Wow, having a powerful background really does allow you to do whatever you want!"
After boarding the high-speed train, Professor Qiu Yuhua, who was leading the group, said with a smile, "This time, you're going to the capital as exchange students. You can have a good time at some of the famous tourist attractions in the capital. The most famous attraction in the capital is the Great Wall. As the saying goes, 'He who has not climbed the Great Wall is not a true man.' It would be a pity if you didn't go to the Great Wall."
"The Great Wall was built by Qin Shi Huang back then. It was originally used to defend against the invasion of demons. As the territory of China expanded, this line of defense against the invasion of demons gradually became a relic, and is now mostly open to tourists."
"There are many magical stories and legends about the Great Wall. If you are interested, you can learn about them on the way."
Mo Fan smiled and said to Professor Qiu Yuhua, "Professor Qiu, let me ask you something. Magic was so primitive back then, unlike now with countless powerful earth mages. So how did you build the Great Wall, this behemoth? Was it done by manpower and hard labor?"
If Jiang Han hadn't read the original work, he would definitely have asked the same question. In the previous world, everyone knew that the Great Wall was built by Qin Shi Huang by mobilizing countless laborers and hard workers over several decades. This also gave rise to countless folk tales, the most famous of which is Meng Jiangnu's weeping at the Great Wall. However, in this world, the story of Meng Jiangnu's weeping at the Great Wall has been transformed into a sea monster stirring up a monstrous wave to submerge the human land.
"Qin Shi Huang is known as the Ancient King. He was not only a great monarch and statesman, but also the most remarkable earth-elemental mage in our history. He used his extraordinary power to build the Epang Palace and the Great Wall, two magnificent and enduring structures. If the Great Wall had truly been built by manpower and hard labor, as you say, it would have long been destroyed by the invasion of demons," Ai Tutu said calmly.
"Wow, I didn't expect this female student to have such insight. Not bad, not bad at all," said Professor Qiu Yuhua with a sense of satisfaction.
"Do you know why we still can't set foot in the tomb of the ancient king? It's because he also built the tomb with his immense power; otherwise, the Paradise of the Dead wouldn't exist today."
Professor Qiu imparted a great deal of knowledge to Mo Fan and several other students on the high-speed train, and also allowed Jiang Han to learn about many things that were not in the original work. It has to be said that Uncle Luan is really a scoundrel; he didn't explain many details. If it weren't for Professor Qiu's explanations, Jiang Han wouldn't have known many things.
After getting off the high-speed train, Professor Qiu Yuhua led everyone on a tour of several sacred sites of Chinese magic in the capital before heading to the Imperial Academy. At each location, Professor Qiu also explained various historical stories to everyone, instilling in them a sense of awe for history.
It must be said that those who can become professors at Mingzhu University are indeed highly capable individuals.
After entering the university in the capital, teachers who were specifically responsible for welcoming everyone quickly arranged for them to stay in the student apartments.
The student apartments are quite nice. They have a lobby, and each room is independent. The rooms also have soft Simmons beds, and the environment is in no way inferior to that of star-rated hotels.
After arranging accommodations, Teacher Lu, who was in charge of the reception, said with a smile, "Teacher Gu Han, Teacher Qiu Yuhua, please take the students to rest first. Tomorrow afternoon, exchange students from other colleges will arrive one after another, and then there will be a magic competition between the colleges."
"Isn't this year a bit rushed?" Teacher Gu Han said blankly.
Every year, after the exchange students from various schools arrive at the Imperial Capital Academy, there is a magic sparring match. However, it usually takes place near the end of the exchange. The two teachers in charge, Gu Han and Qiu Yuhua, did not expect that this year's magic sparring match would be held earlier than expected.
"Why would we be in a rush? The timing is perfect. The annual magic sparring is always a highlight, and this year, in addition to the sparring, outdoor training is also essential. Therefore, it's best to hold the magic sparring as soon as possible," Teacher Lu said with a smile.
"Since that's the case... then alright." Gu Han sighed and said.
"Alright, that's enough for now. Students of Pearl Academy, you should all get some rest. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning. We students from Imperial Capital Academy have heard a lot about your world and are eager to have an extraordinary competition with you. Please go easy on us then." Teacher Lu said with a smile, but his smile was very fake.
"Yes, we'll go easy on them," Jiang Han said calmly, sitting on the sofa.
When Teacher Lu heard Jiang Han's words, his lips twitched slightly. He hadn't expected that there would actually be a fool who dared to take the bait. Didn't he know that his opponents were all outstanding magical geniuses from the Imperial Capital Academy?
"Yes, we will go easy on them, but I'm afraid the students from the Imperial Academy will be crying afterwards, hahaha," Mo Fan said with a laugh.
Mo Fan's words made Teacher Lu's face darken. Just as she was about to reprimand him, Teacher Qiu Yuhua said with a smile, "Teacher Lu, don't mind that young people are just like that, they don't know how to keep their mouths shut. Mo Fan, you should apologize to Teacher Lu."
On the surface, Qiu Yuhua was reprimanding Mo Fan, but anyone with eyes could see that she was actually making excuses for him.
Finally, Teacher Lu snorted and left the student dormitory where Mingzhu Academy was located. He was going back to tell the students from the Imperial Capital Academy who had participated in this magic competition to teach those two arrogant young people a lesson in the competition tomorrow.
After Teacher Lu left, Qiu Yuhua said with a smile, "Don't feel any pressure going to the magic sparring tomorrow. Just treat them normally. Besides, aren't there exchange students from other schools? There will be someone who embarrasses us even more."
"Professor Qiu, you're not quite right about that. With Jiang Han, the ultimate boss, and Mo Fan, the great demon king, around, how could we possibly lose to the Imperial Capital Academy?" Ai Tutu said with a smile.
"Yes, don't put too much pressure on yourselves. Go back and get some rest to get back into the swing of things," said Teacher Gu Han.
