Mo Fan had already returned to the academy when Jiang Yuan entered the Three Step Tower.
Knowing that Jiang Yuan had emerged from the Three Step Tower, he rushed to Jiang Yuan's single apartment.
As soon as he pushed open the door, he yelled at the top of his lungs:
"Baby, where's my baby?"
Jiang Yuan calmly sat on the sofa, unhurriedly, with a composed expression.
On the tea table in front of him, a medieval knight's full-face helmet lay quietly.
Mo Fan's gaze was instantly drawn to the helmet, and he subconsciously grumbled, "Where did you get such a helmet collectible? You don't even have a matching set of armor. It looks too ugly."
"Ugly?" Jiang Yuan's expression was calm, his tone faint: "This helmet is a very precious Mind magic item. It can resist mental attacks five times consecutively and can automatically recharge after use."
"Hmm?" Mo Fan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, his face full of doubt and surprise: "Really? Is that true?"
For an elemental mage like Mo Fan, a magic item that can resist mental attacks is self-evident in its importance.
Could it be… this is the treasure Jiang Yuan spoke of?
Thinking of this, when Mo Fan looked at the helmet again, he suddenly felt that it didn't seem so ugly after all.
Jiang Yuan didn't answer, but instead retorted, "Just tell me if you want it or not? If not, I'll give it to someone else."
"Don't talk, let me try it on first."
Mo Fan bared his teeth, picked up the helmet, and put it on his head.
How to describe it, such a large helmet on Mo Fan's body felt a bit too out of place.
Mo Fan walked to the mirror, somewhat silent.
He took it off, a slight hint of disdain in his expression: "I think it doesn't suit my handsome face. Do you have any other treasures?"
"You're getting picky now?"
Jiang Yuan sneered: "When Ding Y眠 beats you till you cry for your parents, don't blame me for not helping you."
"What do you mean?" Mo Fan didn't understand.
Or rather, he still didn't know the strength of many people in the academy, a pure brute.
"Don't worry about what I mean. I'm just asking if you plan to participate in the World Academy Tournament?" Jiang Yuan asked.
"Of course, I'm participating!" Mo Fan became excited when he heard this.
"Old Zhao told me that this tournament involves public-funded travel around the world. At that time, beauties from various countries, wouldn't that be, hehehehehehehe…"
As Mo Fan spoke, he began to snicker pervertedly, his Mind filled with lewd thoughts.
"You damn it, don't drool on my floor!" Jiang Yuan's mouth twitched.
Mo Fan wiped his mouth: "Don't you think it's awesome? So many exotic beauties!"
He was already impatient for the day the tournament would begin.
Just thinking about it made him unable to control his excitement.
Beauties, await the favor of your great Mo Fan!
"Awesome? First, figure out how to get the qualifications for the tournament," Jiang Yuan said.
"That's not hard to get! Just tell me how, and I'll go get one right away!" Mo Fan said confidently.
"Alright, in a few days, it's our academy's nomination battle. The top ten can secure a nomination ticket."
Mo Fan patted his chest: "No problem, just wait!"
Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded.
He didn't intend to tell Mo Fan about Ding Y眠's Mind ability.
When Mo Fan gets frustrated, he'll still come running for the helmet, won't he?
"Woo woo woo~" A tender voice suddenly sounded from behind Mo Fan, and a fire-red porcelain doll poked its head out, curiously looking at Jiang Yuan.
"Hey, how did you run out!?" Mo Fan grabbed Xiao Yan Ji by the scruff of her neck, about to stuff her back into the Summoning Space.
Xiao Yan Ji shook her head desperately, waving her hands and feet, babbling.
"What is this?" Jiang Yuan asked, feigning surprise.
"Her name is Xiao Yan Ji, and she's my contracted summoned beast," Mo Fan replied.
Jiang Yuan nodded: "Is she telling you something?"
"She said she doesn't want to go back to the Summoning Space. Sigh, other people's summoned beasts can stay quietly in the Summoning Space, but only she can run out whenever she wants," Mo Fan complained.
Jiang Yuan was about to say something else when a message from Little Yunmeng came from the Soul Space.
The next moment, Little Yunmeng's "Wuhu" sound rang out from above his head, followed by marshmallow-like white clouds floating up, and her small head emerged from within.
"Yi ya ya~!!!"
Upon seeing Little Yunmeng, Xiao Yan Ji's eyes widened, and her limbs suddenly flailed rapidly, trying hard to break free from Mo Fan's control.
Seeing this, Mo Fan released his hand.
Xiao Yan Ji instantly shot like a red rocket to Little Yunmeng's side.
"Wuhu?"
"Yi ya!"
"Wuhuhu~~~"
"Yi ya yi ya!"
The two of them kept speaking a language that others couldn't understand, but Mo Fan and Jiang Yuan, as their respective fathers, understood their daughters' words.
Finally, after a friendly exchange, Little Yunmeng and Xiao Yan Ji reached an agreement on a friendship pact, officially becoming the best of friends.
"One is water, and one is fire. Can they not play together?" Mo Fan suddenly asked.
"It's fine, a small problem," Jiang Yuan replied.
Little Yunmeng let out a "Wuhu" and, from somewhere unknown, pulled out a Commander-level Soul Seed, presenting it to Xiao Yan Ji.
It was meant as a welcoming gift for her new friend.
Xiao Yan Ji was extremely happy, and the flames on her body grew larger.
She unceremoniously accepted the Soul Seed, then ran to Mo Fan and held out her hand.
"Huh?" Mo Fan was stunned.
"Hmm? Yi ya!" Xiao Yan Ji wiggled her small hand.
She was asking Mo Fan for a Soul Seed as a return gift for Little Yunmeng.
If it weren't for the fire-elemental Soul Seed Mo Fan obtained from Zhuo Yuan North Corner, she would have given both the Soul Seed and the Soul Seed to Little Yunmeng.
Mo Fan really couldn't hold back. He was as poor as a church mouse, unable to take out a single Soul Seed from his little loach pendant.
His own daughter wanted one, what should he do?
He was so anxious!
Jiang Yuan couldn't stand it anymore. Xiao Yan Ji, following Mo Fan, truly couldn't eat her fill.
Unlike Little Yunmeng, who gnawed on Soul Seed fragments and Soul Seeds every day, her level had long reached the advanced stage of a Great Commander-level.
Just as Mo Fan was despairing, a Soul Seed was placed in his hand, and Jiang Yuan whispered, "You owe me a Commander-level Soul Seed now, kid."
Mo Fan was so touched he almost cried, and he quickly gave the Soul Seed to Xiao Yan Ji.
He watched Xiao Yan Ji and Little Yunmeng with relief, the two porcelain dolls sitting on the ground, nibbling on the Commander-level Soul Seed, one bite after another.
Mo Fan suddenly reacted, his face changing abruptly.
This Commander-level Soul Seed seemed to be worth nearly a billion.
It was more than enough to buy a Soul Seed!
"Don't eat, don't eat, my little ancestors, don't eat!!!"
Mo Fan's wailing was useless. Xiao Yan Ji quickened her chewing, her cheeks puffed out as she forcibly swallowed the Soul Seed.
"Burp~" Xiao Yan Ji covered her belly, a look of satisfaction on her face.
Mo Fan's face instantly turned ashen.
A colossal sum of a billion, how long would it take to repay that?
"It's okay, if you really can't pay it back, you can sell your behind. I'll keep your secret," Jiang Yuan said with a smile, comforting him.
He still remembered what Mo Fan said on his first day at the single apartment.
This was his revenge!
