Chapter 70 Three-person team
"We can cooperate, but I need to find another teammate. I don't know if you can accept it." Xu Mu shrugged.

"Beginner or intermediate level?" Yu Qiuyue asked.

"Intermediate level."

"As long as he's at the intermediate level, that's fine." Yu Qiuyue nodded slightly. In this Qing campus where most people are at the beginner level, teaming up with any intermediate-level magician would not be a burden.

At the intermediate level, even light magic can produce quite good defensive effects.

……

Dongfang Lie and Dongfang Ming originally planned to come here to discuss cooperation with Xu Mu, but when they arrived, they saw Yu Qiuyue chatting enthusiastically with Xu Mu.

"It looks like they have already cooperated. Do you want to join them?" Dongfang Ming added, "The team that ranks first in the assessment can enter the Three-Step Tower once. You should know the effect of that place."

The assessment results are closely related to the difficulty and completion of the commissioned tasks. This rule basically determines that it is difficult for mages below the intermediate level to get the first place.

"They are just two civilian mages. I will not lose to them." Dongfang Lie snorted coldly and turned away.

Dongfang Ming sighed and said, "Okay, then let's find other people to cooperate with."

If they don't cooperate with Xu Mu, then Xu Mu will be their opponent. If they want to surpass Xu Mu and the others and get the first place, the difficulty of the commissioned tasks must be higher.

The difficulty of the commission is linked to the overall strength of the team, and they need to find more people to cooperate with.

When Xu Mu came back, Yu Qiuyue caught a glimpse of a very beautiful girl accompanying him. Her hair was flowing and her eyes revealed charming charm.

"Is this your girlfriend?" Yu Qiuyue asked puzzledly.

"Cough..." Xu Mu almost choked on his own saliva. Fortunately, Ding Yumian next to him did not show anything unusual, otherwise he really didn't know how to explain it.

"Is this my junior sister? I think so." Xu Mu said uncertainly. They were studying under the same teacher, and he was born a few days earlier than Ding Yumian, so it shouldn't be a problem that he is my senior brother, right?
As for whether Ding Yumian admits it or not, that is none of his business. He wants to be the boss anyway.

Ding Yumian looked at Xu Mu in confusion. She was the first student to become Dean Fu's disciple, so she should be his senior sister. How did she become his junior sister?
Although she was a little confused, she didn't dwell too much on whether she was a junior sister or a senior sister.

The three of them exchanged a few simple greetings and then went to Dean Xiao to receive the commissioned task.

“…” Dean Xiao rubbed his brows and looked at the three people with a headache.

A victim, a triple basic power, and a great general-level summoned beast. The three strongest people in the entire Qing campus teamed up...

The commissioned tasks in his hands were all carefully selected. Even the most difficult one was only to eliminate an ordinary general-level demon and dozens of slave-level demons. This was prepared for those children of aristocratic families who were willing to cooperate.

The commission given to the children of aristocratic families seemed too easy and lacked challenges for these three people.

"Dean Xiao, are you having a headache?" Xu Mu asked with a smile.

With the combined strength of the three of them, even the generals who are about to advance to the advanced stage will have to be slapped in the face before they can leave.

How could Dean Xiao not have a headache in this situation? Could it be that the assessment of the main campus would also involve a general advancement stage?

"You three." Dean Xiao didn't bother to do anything else and directly gave the most difficult commission to Xu Mu, while reminding him: "Be sure to act with caution."

"no problem!"

After receiving the commission, the three of them left quickly.

"Recently, warlord-level demons have frequently appeared in the border area along the high-speed rail line from Magic City to Hangzhou, seriously threatening the security and stability of the area. We urgently need magicians to go there to carry out emergency cleanup operations."

Xu Mu cleared his throat and began to describe the specific matters of the commission in detail to the two women.

"Just a general-level demon?" Yu Qiuyue asked doubtfully. Are the assessments in the main campus so simple?

A general-level demon, she was still worried that she couldn't handle it, so she actually asked someone to cooperate with her to deal with it. "There are also dozens of servant-level demons!" Xu Mu added.

Yu Qiuyue: “…”

Okay, she can't do it alone.

"Let's set off now without further delay," said Xu Mu.

Both women nodded, agreeing with Xu Mu's decision.

The specific area range is clearly marked on the power of attorney, so they only need to go to the designated area to search.

Since the location is outside the high-speed rail line and cannot be reached directly by train, they chose other means of transportation as their travel mode.

……

The whistling wind was like an invisible sword, piercing the silent night sky.

Standing on top of the Flame-Desire Blood Falcon, Xu Mu let the breeze caress his face, with unspeakable joy surging in his heart.

It feels so good to fly in the sky!
To be honest, he is a little afraid of heights.

Especially at this height of one hundred meters, if one accidentally slips and falls, even a mid-level wizard’s body will be smashed into a pulp.

But I couldn’t resist the excitement. I had long wanted to experience the feeling of flying in the sky, but the speed was a bit slow.

"Big bird, fly faster." Xu Mu patted the head of the Flame Blood Falcon and urged.

"Crying~~~~"

The Flame-Desire Blood Falcon let out a sharp cry. Although Xu Mu could not understand its language, he could clearly feel the obvious hostility and dissatisfaction.

"That's enough!" Without waiting for Xu Mu to say anything, Yu Qiuyue could no longer bear it, with black lines all over her forehead, and pulled Xu Mu off the head of Yanyuxue Falcon.

This was a summoned beast that she had spent a lot of effort and four years carefully feeding with magical energy, not just an ordinary mount for traveling in a hurry!
It's outrageous that they even let it speed up!

"Ahem, it should be here soon." Xu Mu also realized that he had gone a little too far, so he dry coughed a few times to ease the embarrassment.

Yu Qiuyue snorted coldly and ignored Xu Mu, while Ding Yumian watched quietly from the side.

The flying speed of the Flame Blood Falcon was actually very fast, but considering that it was carrying three extremely fragile humans on its back, it had to deliberately slow down its flying speed.

After flying for a while, they finally arrived at their destination.

Ding Yumian pointed to a hill in the distance and said, "We can start our search from there."

The hill happened to be within the area specified by the client, and the three quickly reached a consensus and decided to use it as a starting point to launch the search.

"Little Falcon, you continue to patrol the sky. If you find any abnormal situation, notify me immediately." Yu Qiuyue gently stroked the beak of the Flame Blood Falcon and reminded.

The Flame-Desire Blood Falcon, which had not entered a frenzy, maintained a clear mind and sharp intelligence. It nodded obediently, then spread its wings and soared into the sky.

"Do you need a torch?" Xu Mu looked around. Although the moonlight was shining and most places were barely visible, there were still some areas that were dim and unclear.

"Torches will attract the attention of demons. Although it is unlikely that commander-level demons will appear here, if there are a large number of general-level demons, we may find it difficult to deal with them." Yu Qiuyue shook her head and said.

Hearing this, Xu Mu didn't say much.

He and Ding Yumian possess powerful mental powers. Even in a pitch-black area, they can clearly perceive everything around them, while Yu Qiuyue may find it difficult to see clearly due to limited vision.
