Chapter 144 Mu Ningxue's Domain, The Unweaned Little Fox
After Jiang Han and his group of four entered the arena, Lu Yiming from the Imperial Capital Academy called out again, "Lu Zhenghe, Ming Cong, Xiao Jinhe, and Xiao Feng, the four of you will go up for this match. Mingzhu Academy has two troublemakers, but I think having you four is enough to handle them."
The four members of the first group, Xu Dalong and Liao Mingxuan, were only considered average in their team. If the people from Mingzhu Academy couldn't even handle the first group, then there was no need for the second group to go up. If the second group still couldn't handle it, then there was still Mu Ningxue as their trump card.
As for Jiang Han and Mo Fan, those two troublemakers, Lu Yiming believed they would definitely be no match for Lu Zheng and the others.
Just then, a voice as melodious as an ice crystal bell came from afar.
"Teacher, let me play in this match."
Everyone who had entered the arena looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl holding a parasol standing at the entrance. Under the blazing afternoon sun, the girl was like a cluster of ice lotuses quietly blooming with fragrance. As she walked over, everyone felt an inexplicable chill emanating from her. The people from Mingzhu Academy were all stunned by the girl's stunning beauty.
She stepped into the sunlight, making the blazing sun in the sky seem a little dimmer. The faint icy mist around her made her graceful figure even more captivating. Her high boots, covered in snow-white goose feathers, tightly hugged her delicate and alluring calves. Her long legs, with their round noses, were partially covered by a long leather trench coat, which outlined the graceful curves of her upper body.
Besides her graceful figure, she possessed a stunningly beautiful face. Her long, silver hair was striking in the bright sunlight, perfectly complementing her snow-white skin. Her flawless appearance seemed to have stepped out of a painting, without a single imperfection. If there was anything unpleasant about her, it was the coldness and aloofness in her expression. If one had to describe her in a single sentence, it would be: "In the North, there is a beautiful woman, peerless and independent."
Although this wasn't the first time Jiang Han had met Mu Ningxue, he was still captivated by her aura and stunning beauty.
"Still so cold-hearted," Jiang Han muttered under his breath.
The fat man from Luosong stared wide-eyed and exclaimed, "Wow, I thought Mu Nujiao was already quite stunning, but I never imagined there would be such an outstanding girl in the capital!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, this fruit exchange trip was definitely worth it! She's practically my dream girl. If I could win her over, I'd give up my entire fortune," Zhao Manyan said excitedly.
"It's been over a year, and you've grown even more alluring. Zhao Manyan, I advise you to give up on her." Mo Fan wiped away tears of emotion from the corner of his mouth and said with a smile.
"What? Does that mean she's already taken?" Zhao Manyan asked, turning his head.
Mo Fan patted his chest and said seriously, "Yes, she's my wife."
"Self-proclaimed," Jiang Han chimed in, trying to discredit him.
Mo Fan glared at Jiang Han unhappily, but he couldn't really refute anything. He had indeed declared Mu Ningxue his wife, and apart from the time he eloped with her, she had never agreed to be his girlfriend. However, Mo Fan was confident that he could win Mu Ningxue back.
Ai Tutu glanced at Mu Ningxue opposite her, then at the pair of jade rabbits in front of her, and muttered to herself, "So what if they're a little prettier than me? Are they even as big as mine?"
"Her hair is also silver, exactly the same color as Jiang Han's." Mu Nujiao said, glancing at Jiang Han beside her.
"You've seen enough, now think about how to deal with them. Mu Ningxue is an ice mage, and she's very strong. Jiang Han, how do you compare to her?" Song Xia glanced at the boys, then turned to Jiang Han and asked.
"Not bad. I'll handle Mu Ningxue, and you can deal with the rest," Jiang Han said calmly.
"Hey, why are you all so nervous? With my good looks, dealing with him will be a piece of cake," Mo Fan said with a chuckle.
"Alright, alright, you're here to bring honor to the school, not to compete and be jealous of each other. Get ready for the upcoming sparring session," Gu Han said in a deep voice.
At the Imperial Academy, Lu Yiming looked at Mu Ningxue seriously and said, "Mu Ningxue, are you sure you want to go on stage?"
"Hmm." Mu Ningxue didn't explain further and walked straight into the arena.
Among the four who were to take the stage, the boy named Xiao Jinhe said with a smile, "Since the captain is going to take the stage himself, then I'll just give up my spot. This time, Mingzhu Academy will definitely lose so badly that they'll have nowhere to hide, hahaha."
"Ning Xue, you don't need to play in this match at all. We can handle it." Lu Zhenghe ran up to Mu Ning Xue with a beaming smile.
"You are no match for him," Mu Ningxue said coldly, glancing up at Jiang Han opposite her.
Last time in Bocheng, she lost to Jiang Han, whose strength had already reached the intermediate level. She was very curious about what level Jiang Han's strength had reached after more than a year. Most importantly, she did not want her team to lose to Mingzhu Academy this time.
Seeing that Mu Ningxue's participation in this sparring match was a done deal, Lu Zhenghe smiled and said with a hint of flattery, "Then I'll go first."
Mu Ningxue nodded and raised her fair palm, from which pale blue ice crystals slid down. Then, she pursed her captivating lips and gently blew, causing snowflakes to dance in the air. Tiny, crystal-clear ice shards filled the entire arena, and a chilling aura enveloped the entire arena.
"Ice Vine!!!" Mu Ningxue said softly, her lips barely moving.
As Mu Ningxue unleashed her Ice Vine skill, frost covered the entire arena like a living ivy, transforming the arena, which had been covered in fine sand and gravel, into a wrinkled ice field in an instant.
"This...is this the Ice Domain?" Gu Han, Qiu Yuhua, and several other teachers in the audience were dumbfounded.
It's important to know that domains only appear at higher levels. Below the high level and Soul Seed level, there's never been such a thing as a domain. The most classic domain skill is none other than the Shadow-type Night Domination. While elemental skills can also have domains, they require at least a Soul-level elemental seed.
Who would have thought that Mu Ningxue, a mid-level mage, would possess a domain ability? Wouldn't that mean she's invincible among her peers?
"Damn it, her domain has completely suppressed me." Song Xia's expression changed after feeling the temperature in the air.
Although Song Xia's flames were a special type of Death Lotus Flame, they were merely ordinary fire and had not reached the level of a spiritual fire. They were completely suppressed by Mu Ningxue's spiritual ice.
"Is this the domain? This is a bit troublesome." As he spoke, moonlight and star trails lit up around Jiang Han, and then a small white creature appeared in Jiang Han's arms. This small white creature was Xue Ling, who opened her sleepy eyes and looked at Jiang Han.
"Xue Ling, wake up and help me out," Jiang Han said with a smile, gently rubbing Xue Ling in his arms.
Xue Ling barked twice, then stretched out her furry little paws and scratched Jiang Han's arm before jumping out of his arms and landing on the ground. Lu Zhenghe, who was opposite, burst into laughter when he saw Xue Ling jump to the ground.
"Hahaha, this is hilarious! Is this your summoned beast? It's so big, isn't it weaned yet? Sending it into the arena for a sparring match? What if my Ghostly Wolf gets hurt?" Lu Zhenghe mocked, pointing at the Snow Spirit on the ground.
