"AHHHHH!!!" Ai Tutu screamed out in embarrassment, "You pervert, why did you remove my clothes!"
While screaming, Ai Tutu covered her b.r.e.a.s.ts and fled upstairs.
As a woman with 34D b.r.e.a.s.ts, her running was a spectacular view. It was so gorgeous that Mo Fan could feel his nose heating up.
Mu Nujiao tapped her forehead softly after seeing Ai Tutu's panicked reaction. How slow could this Ai Tutu be?
It had been a while since the two girls were the only ones living in the apartment. It was cold outside, but the apartment was warm with the heaters. Ai Tutu was never bothered with trifles. She always complained that her bras were too tight, thus she would normally take them off after coming back home, and would not bother wearing clothes. She would simply lie on the couch and watch her dramas.
In fact, many girls would do the same when they were home alone. However, they never thought Mo Fan, who was supposed to dead, would barge in all of a sudden. She ended up presenting herself to him half-n.a.k.e.d.
"I guess your living habits are better… aren't you surprised?" Mo Fan and Mu Nujiao were left in the living room.
Mu Nujiao's eyes flickered with shame and anger. She should be happy knowing Mo Fan had survived, yet she somehow assumed he was doing it on purpose to achieve his evil goal. She replied, "I thought so. A bad guy like you wouldn't die so easily."
"So you will speak bitingly too, or maybe the fact that I'm still alive has made you lose your mind, that you can no longer hold yourself back?" Mo Fan squinted theatrically.
Mu Nujiao was not bothered by the remark. Either way, it was a relief knowing that he was still alive. Even if she were to let it go and rebuke him, he would not listen at all.
"Mo Fan!" Ai Tutu's voice like a lioness exploded from upstairs. The entire unit began to tremble.
Mu Nujiao glanced at the stairs before looking at Mo Fan, "You take care of yourself."
Mu Nujiao put on her lint slippers and headed for the stairs, leaving behind Mo Fan, who was about to suffer the consequences.
"Shouldn't you give me a reunion hug?" Mo Fan asked with a wry smile as he watched Mu Nujiao drifting away.
Mu Nujiao was halfway up the stairs. She cast a glance back at him speechlessly, before continuing on her way to her room.
Mo Fan watched the slim curves of her back. What a pity...
------
Mu Nujiao slowly closed the door as she entered her room. She leaned against the door and raised her head upward. She closed her eyes, feeling extremely relieved...
A while later, her red lips curled slightly upwards.
After her eyes sprang open once again, it seemed like the world had become more exciting...
Chapter 406 - The Jerk, Mo Fan
Translator: XephiZ Editor: Aelryinth
The piercing voice babbled never-endingly beside Mo Fan's ear...
It had been a while since Ai Tutu went into her room, but her grumbling was too magical. It would not go away easily in a short period of time.
Mo Fan laid down on the couch and let out a relieved sigh.
Boss Zhan Kong must have told something to his friends. Even though they were not assured that he was still alive, at least they knew that he did not die as the public was told.
Many were surely worried about him during this period of time.
It did feel great knowing someone was worried about him. Being content with living a solitary life was in fact just an attempt at self-comforting. Everyone needed a sense of belonging. If your existence did not bring any difference to the others, especially those whom you cared about, you might as well as be dead, or simply find a new place to start over again.
-------
The next dawn, the path to school was covered in leaves that had fallen last night. Some of them had ended up floating on the surface of the lake. It was indeed a great depiction of the typical autumn scenery...
After having a good rest that night, Mo Fan followed his two gorgeous housemates to Pearl Institute in a pleasant mood!
The typical dramas about a tyrannical CEO would always have a girl with a young face and huge b.r.e.a.s.ts on one side, and an elegant, noble beauty on the other. The protagonist would then walk at a domineering pace, with such an arrogant, proud smile on his face that even the bullies in the school had to pay him their respects. His gaze was so full of himself that those who were bold enough to block his path would suffer great consequences of being tortured by one of the hundred methods that he had in mind...
Mo Fan was sure that he was getting very close to wearing the same shoes. The only difference was the two gorgeous ladies beside him showed no cooperation at all. Instead of leaning into his arms on both sides, they were clinging onto each other and walking in front of him.
"Sister Mu, it's that Lin Yanyu, Zhou Shuming's pawn!" said Ai Tutu as she pointed at someone ahead.
The person had fairly sharp ears. He immediately turned around and glanced at Ai Tutu and Mu Nujiao, before noticing Mo Fan, who was fairly close to the girls.
"So, Miss Ai has a new follower? I would suggest that you find a better-looking one. Look at him, are you sure he can satisfy you? Or maybe he's the new protector that you've just recruited. Make sure he's strong enough. I hope he won't get destroyed by Big Bro Zhou Shuming with a single move." A male student who was dressed up like a noble approached them. He spoke ruthlessly, as if he were not intimidated by Ai Tutu's nickname, 'The Little Witch'.
The guy spoke with a rather impertinent tone. The word 'sissy' immediately popped up in Mo Fan's mind, which he quickly attached to the man's head in his imagination...
Hang on, this asshole was humiliating him!
Mo Fan immediately felt his temper rising. He went up and stared at the guy who was half a head shorter than him, "What did you just say?!"
The man was not afraid at all. He raised his head, looking at Mo Fan and said mockingly, "Are you angry because I say you're a follower? Well, let me guess, which renowned family are you from..."
Mo Fan grabbed the man's fairly elegant bow tie and glared at him, "Open your dog eyes and look at my face carefully, how dare you say that I'm not handsome!"
Ai Tutu felt an urge to snap her heels when she heard Mo Fan's statement. She wished she could slap him to death right on the spot.
Meanwhile, Mu Nujiao's lips contorted slightly. She had honestly given up on him.
"Kid, I suggest letting go with your hand now. Otherwise, I will guarantee that you have to pick up your hands with your mouth and plead the Healing Element teachers at the infirmary to reconnect them for you!" Lin Yanyu's voice turned icy all of a sudden.
He had let Mo Fan dragged his bow tie around, but his eyes flickered coldly. His aura was completely different from his previous sissy appearance!
"Very arrogant. You've insulted me first. Normally, I would have thrown you to the ground and used you as a mat. I won't give you another chance to correct yourself."
The atmosphere between the two quickly intensified. If it were visible, the people nearby could definitely see two small galaxies colliding into one another intensely.
"Make sure you remember what you've said!" said Lin Yanyu coldly.
Meanwhile, a rather tall man came up from behind.
The man had a rather domineering aura. The crowd immediately made way for him with a hint of gloating.
"Yanyu, what's going on here?" The tall man moved closer. He did behave like a school tyrant, who did not forget to politely nod at Mu Nujiao with a smile while asking the question.
It seemed like he had come to take over the situation!
"Brother Dongfang, you've seen it too… I hate people touching my collar the most!" exclaimed Lin Yanyu.
"Everything will be fine once you get used to it," said Mo Fan with a smile.
Mo Fan was truly a jerk. As soon as the man had mentioned his reverse scale, Mo Fan immediately pulled the bow tie and snatched it away from Lin Yanyu's neck as if he were plucking a flower.
Lin Yanyu was immediately enraged, but he was dragged away by the guy who had the surname Dongfang.
"You're dead!" Lin Yanyu pointed at Mo Fan. His anger had risen to a whole new level.
Mo Fan simply threw the bow tie away and cast a challenging gaze at Lin Yanyu, "This bow tie is too fancy for a man. Hey sissy, I'm trying to help."
Lin Yanyu pulled a long face.
He was about to speak when Mo Fan interrupted, "Don't tell me you hate people calling you sissy too..."
"I swear I'll kill you!" Lin Yanyu lunged forward. If it weren't for the crowd, he would have cast a spell right away.
The man with the name Dongfang quickly grabbed Lin Yanyu and dragged him away from the crowd...
The people immediately gasped in astonishment.
Lin Yanyu never cared about stirring troubles in front of a crowd. Why would he leave like that?
Perhaps this man that was humiliating him had some formidable background?
------
"Strange, did they just leave like that?" said Ai Tutu. She was hoping to see more.
"Mo Fan, do you know Dongfang Ming?" Mu Nujiao stared into Mo Fan's eyes, as if she had noticed something.
Mo Fan shrugged and responded in an indifferent tone, "I can't remember. Too many people have lost to me in the past."
Not far away, Dongfang Ming who was pulling Lin Yanyu away staggered...
Just for a second, Dongfang Ming, who had forever lost his chance at becoming a Judge of the Magic Court, felt like charging back at Mo Fan together with Lin Yanyu, who had totally lost his temper!
Chapter 407 - World College Tournament

Lin Yanyu glanced backward with a hint of dissatisfaction.
Mo Fan was right on point. The two things he hated the most in his life were someone touching his bow tie, or calling him a sissy.
The man had committed a serious offense, enough to grant him the worst death penalty. He would lose his reputation at Pearl Institute if he could not get his revenge.
"Brother Dongfang, why are you stopping me? You just want to preserve your good image in front of Mu Nujiao, but I don't f**king care," said Lin Yanyu furiously.
"I don't want you to take a beating," said Dongfang Ming.
"Why would I take a beating… wait, are you implying that he's stronger than me?" It sounded fairly ridiculous to Lin Yanyu.
Only a few students in the entire Pearl Institute were worthy to be his opponent. He would never believe a jerk with no manners could be comparable to him.
Dongfang Ming had his pride, too. He did not want to mention how he was defeated by Mo Fan when he was sent after him and Tangyue previously.
He vaguely answered Lin Yanyu's question and quickly left the place. Meanwhile, he mumbled to himself, "So that guy is also from Pearl Institute, why haven't I seen him before?"
Lin Yanyu assumed Dongfang Ming was just trying to be a gentleman in front of Mu Nujiao. Either way, he would never forgive that guy called Mo Fan...
------
Meanwhile, Mo Fan headed straight to the Dean's Office to report in. Along the way, he could not help but murmur, "I was once the demon king among the new students, yet it seems like everyone has completely forgotten me within half a year's time. That's not good news. Even Tom, D.i.c.k, and Harry dared threaten to break my hands. Most importantly, he was complaining that I was not handsome enough!"
Mo Fan did not bother knocking. He pushed the door open and barged in. "Dean Xiao, I'm here to report for duty!"
The office was seated with several teachers who had fairly high positions in the school, and some student representatives. Everyone was staring at the impolite Mo Fan with blank faces.
"Which Element are you from? How dare you act so lawlessly in the Dean's Office? Do you want your name erased?" scolded an Elemental Director.
The few students from the student council were left speechless, too. Even those who were famous representatives for the students had to mind their attitude and words in front of the Dean. They never thought anyone would dare to barge in like that. Surely, the man was tired of having a peaceful life at Pearl Institute!
Dean Xiao was also angered by the sudden interruption. He still had to preserve his authority in front of the teachers and the students. However, his anger quickly vanished when he saw it was Mo Fan.
He waved his hand and said to the teachers and students, "We'll call it a day. I'll organize a meeting some other time."
The teachers and students were stunned. They never recalled Dean Xiao having such a close relationship…
------
The crowd quickly left the office, leaving Mo Fan alone with Dean Xiao.
Dean Xiao wore a blossoming smile, with a hint of relief. His first words were, "Are you alright?"
"Of course, somehow I quite miss you after being gone for half a year," said Mo Fan with a smile.
His words were sincere. Dean Xiao had been taking good care of him since he came to Pearl Institute. He was definitely a senior worthy of his respect.
"I told Zhan Kong to announce to the public that you were dead, as I was concerned about your safety. Speaking of which, it was quite a miracle that you managed to survive the aftereffect of the Demon Element. It was our fault too, being unable to give you the right protection. After all, your Double Innate Elements is too special," said Dean Xiao.
"It was my fault for showing it too early. Well, at least I'm still alive now. I managed to come back here to continue my studies," said Mo Fan.
Dean Xiao nodded. That was truly a relief to everyone.
"Dean Xiao, I shall head back to class if there's nothing else you have in mind. Oh, by the way, I would like to change to a different Element," said Mo Fan.
"You're not planning to stay in the Summoning Element?" Dean Xiao was rather surprised.
"You couldn't even form a soccer team with the number of people in the Summoning Element, not to mention that there are no girls at all. It's too boring. Move me to the Fire Element, at least it's still a popular Element in the school. I believe it will suit me better," said Mo Fan with a hint of menace.
Dean Xiao shook his head helplessly. He had already caused so many troubles when he was in the relatively deserted Summoning Element. The situation would be much worse if he were transferred into the Fire Element.
That being said, it was not a bad idea, either. Since Mo Fan was willing to train in the Fire Element, he would not mind fulfilling his wish, since it would not bring any harm to let him compete against the other students in the Fire Element.
"Fine, you should spend some time improving your cultivation. When the time comes, I'll recommend you to the National Team. I'm looking forward to your outstanding performance in the upcoming World College Tournament."
"World College Tournament... what the heck is that?" asked Mo Fan.
Dean Xiao raised his eyebrows, before speaking with an annoyed yet amused tone, "Are you sure you're a student? How could you not know about the World College Tournament? The Enforcement Union at Lingyin, Hangzhou, strongly recommended you as a seeded candidate for the National Team. Didn't you know that?"
Mo Fan dropped his jaw, before he recalled Miss Tangyue's words prior to his departure, "I never said I wanted to participate in the tournament. It's just a waste of my time and effort. If I won, the school would say they had done a great job at training me. If I lost, they would say that I'm not good enough."
Dean Xiao rubbed his temple and said with a headache, "Do you have any idea how hard the renowned clans, Hunter Union, and Magic Associations have tried just to secure a spot? Yet you think it's a waste of effort. The school will consider it, and once we all agree, there's no escape for you."
"This isn't fair, our school has lots of talents. Why do you have to pick me?" said Mo Fan.
"You won't have much time until the selection for the National Team takes place. The World College Tournament is also known as the Battle of Venice. You will know its origin eventually. Now, I'll let the student affairs sort out your transfer… forget it, I'll do it for you. Just check in at the Fire School," said Dean Xiao.
"Oh, right, thanks, Dean Xiao."
"Watch yourself, there are differences between different Element Schools. I can't help you with everything," advised Dean Xiao with a worried tone.
Chapter 408 - Transfer Student, Fire School
Translator: XephiZ Editor: Aelryinth
In smaller cities, there were fewer students with the Fire Element in a class, but for Pearl Institute, which had selected great talents across the nation, the Fire Element was rather common.
Most students who were eligible to join the main campus would have achieved the Intermediate Level. At this stage, everyone would have some savings by now, thus if they were really keen on awakening the Fire Element, they would most likely use Guided Awakenings to improve the odds of getting the Element they wanted.
Therefore, there were lots of students with the Fire Element!
Now that his Double Innate Elements talent were exposed, Mo Fan knew that he had nothing left to hide.
After all, the Fire Element was his main Element. It was about time he competed for some resources at the main campus that would let him improve further.
His Fire Element Nebula had ranked up to the third tier. Even though he was still a distance away from owning the Advanced Level Galaxia, things like cultivation acc.u.mulated over time, so he should make preparations for his next breakthrough.
The Fire Element students in Pearl Institute were specifically placed under the Fire School. It had more than two thousand students. Over a thousand of them were fairly active at school, with a countless number of graduates in the past.
Mo Fan had picked the right time. It turned out to be the day the results of the monthly test for the Fire School was announced.
The aim of the test was fairly simple, to determine the distribution of the resources. Those with higher ranks would receive more resources. The amount of resources needed from Intermediate Level onward was more or less a bottomless hole. Having abundant resources was crucial to standing out among the students in this long journey of cultivation.
