If they were a bit more competitive, then it wouldn't just be Lu Li left behind. No? It should be who told the Third High School to produce such a pervert as Lu Li this year!

Shivering with cold! Cangling City has only produced such a special case as Lu Li after so many years. How could it be intercepted by the Third High School?

As for Wang Ping, Bei Hanyun, and the others, although they didn't understand, they also knew that Lu Li being left alone must have other benefits, which made them even more envious.

"Sit down, no need to be restrained." In the office of the City Lord's Mansion, Cang Fenghua appeared slightly casual, with a faint smile on his face, without any airs.

For a genius, putting on airs has no meaning, especially since Lu Li has already exceeded the category of genius.

"From the unified exam to the exchange match, and then to the Spirit Home, we have seen your performance." After Lu Li sat down, Cang Fenghua continued: "To be honest, I didn't expect Cangling City to produce such a heaven-gifted talent like you this year."

"No matter what, the appearance of a heaven-gifted talent is a good thing for our Cangling City." Heaven-gifted talent rather than genius; clearly, in Cang Fenghua's mind, the word "genius" alone is no longer worthy of Lu Li's performance. Calling the other party a heaven-gifted talent is perhaps more appropriate.

The talent, potential, and strength Lu Li showed, let alone in Cangling City, even if placed in Cangdu, one of the twelve cities of the Eastern Region, are extremely rare. In Cang Fenghua's cognition, only a very small number of Magic Card Masters who are also heaven-gifted talents can compare with Lu Li.

As one of the twelve cities of the ancient kingdom, the overall strength of Cangdu is naturally stronger than the subordinate Cangling City, but even so, there are not many candidates in Cangdu who can create a six-star Magic Card before participating in the college entrance exam.

More importantly, Lu Li's Magic Cards are all original Magic Cards! Even if he searches through his memory, counting back hundreds of years, in Cang Fenghua's impression, there has never been an original Magic Card.

As for the longer thousand-year time, Cang Fenghua can only consult the classics. After all, if it weren't for Lu Li's appearance, he wouldn't have specifically checked the information on original Magic Cards.

Regarding Cang Fenghua's praise, Lu Li just smiled and didn't say anything. Saying more is empty; he knows that what comes next is the key point.

Cang Fenghua would definitely not leave him behind for no reason, especially since Yu Haojia, the president of the Magic Card Association, was also on the scene, and even Gu Fa stayed behind.

"Lu Li, I asked you to stay this time because of the Heimen." Just as Lu Li thought, after Cang Fenghua sighed, he soon stated the reason for leaving him behind.

"The Heimen connects to an alien dimensional space. Once wandering alien beasts enter the dimensional plane through the Heimen and then break through to the Magic Card civilization without being stopped in time, it will cause a terrifying disaster."

"Do you still remember the Thunder-Roaring Dragon that caused a sensation in Cangdu? That was actually an alien beast."

"The Thunder-Roaring Dragon back then was an alien beast?" Hearing this, Lu Li suddenly realized. No wonder it could cause such a big sensation in Cangdu, where there are many strong people.

"Every appearance of a Heimen will attract everyone's high attention, and any Magic Card Master who resolves a Heimen, reports it, and passes the verification will receive special rewards."

There are special rewards for resolving a Heimen? Thinking of the materials dropped from the Abyss Hunter, Lu Li suddenly felt that these Black Gates were experience bags.

Of course, the premise is to have enough strength; otherwise, it's like a meat bun hitting a dog, never to return.

"Generally speaking, reporting the destruction of a Heimen also requires a strict review process, but the process of you destroying the Heimen was witnessed by us, so there is no need for such tediousness." Speaking to the end, Cang Fenghua leaned back on the chair slightly.

"However, the appearance of the Heimen is of great importance, so this aspect still needs to be reported to Cangdu. By then, I will strive for more rewards for you as much as possible. Regarding this point, you can rest assured and leave it to me to handle."

"For you right now, the most important thing is to welcome the upcoming college entrance exam. If you can win the first place in Cangdu, or even the first place in the entire Eastern Region, in the college entrance exam, you will receive absolutely generous rewards."

"I understand, City Lord." Seeing this, Lu Li nodded. He still trusted Cang Fenghua relatively. As for the college entrance exam, he would also go all out.

"Alright, with this, the most important thing is resolved. Let's talk about another thing." Cang Fenghua was still leaning on the back of the chair: "This time, because of the appearance of the Heimen in the Spirit Home, it ended early. Tell me what type of material you want as compensation."

48. Original Magic Card, Just So Willful!

Strictly speaking, the Spirit Home had a Heimen mutation event because of Lu Li, and now he has to give the other party compensation. Even Cang Fenghua felt a bit strange.

But these words were what he said in front of everyone just now, and he couldn't break his promise. If he really did that, he believed that the old guy Gu Fa would be the first not to let him off.

Of course, Cang Fenghua also knew that Lu Li did not intentionally trigger the mutation of the Heimen; it could only be said that it was caused by a coincidence.

"What type of material?" After pondering for a few seconds, Lu Li said: "Dragon-type materials are okay? Dragon pupils would be best."

Since Cang Fenghua had said so, he naturally wouldn't be polite to the other party.

Having seen the combat power of the Red-Eyes Black Dragon, Lu Li also understood the gap between intermediate Magic Cards and advanced Magic Cards.

Whether it was the Dark Magician Girl or the Red-Eyes Black Star Dragon, the performance of both Magic Cards in the same star level could be described as very dazzling, but when facing a stronger seven-star level, such as the Abyss Hunter not long ago, they could only maintain an unbeaten state.

However, six-star versus seven-star, the gap in combat power across the ladder between intermediate Magic Cards and advanced Magic Cards, is not something that just any Magic Card can do to protect itself. This is also the reason why Cang Fenghua and the others were so focused on Lu Li's Magic Cards.

When Lu Li created the Dark Magician Girl and the Red-Eyes Black Star Dragon, he had already thought about the subsequent planning and strengthening. What he needed to do next was to upgrade the two Magic Cards.

And dragon pupils are the key material for upgrading.

As for the fairy and elf-type materials obtained in the Spirit Home, as well as the materials dropped by killing the Abyss Hunter, Lu Li had other plans. He intended to recall the flash of inspiration that had flashed through his mind.

"Dragon-type materials? Dragon pupils?" Cang Fenghua and the others, who were still relatively casual, were not calm again this time.

Although it is not necessarily the case that Dragon-type materials are used to create Dragon-type Magic Cards, this situation is not common. After all, Dragon-type materials are notoriously rare and expensive.

Therefore, Lu Li proposed the need for Dragon-type materials and specifically stated that they were dragon pupils. It is very likely that he is creating a new Dragon-type Magic Card. After all, he has already succeeded once, and it seems not impossible to create a new Dragon-type Magic Card.

Thinking of this, Cang Fenghua and the others looked at each other, seeing the other's thoughts. Damn, when did Dragon-type Magic Cards become so worthless and so easy to create?

"What's wrong?" Not knowing the complaints in everyone's hearts, Lu Li looked puzzled.

He actually had quite a few other Magic Card concepts, but the main thing was that the price of Dragon-type materials was outrageously expensive. Last time he bought the scales of the Undying Flame Prison Dragon, he had used up almost all his possessions.

And the Magic Card he was preparing to create next to further strengthen the Dark Magician Girl absolutely could not lack dragon pupils. If Cang Fenghua could provide them for free, it would save him a lot of trouble.

"Lu Li, can I understand that you are preparing to create a new Dragon-type Magic Card next?" Taking a deep breath, Cang Fenghua's expression was solemn. Although such a question involves the privacy of a Magic Card Master, having seen the combat power of the Red-Eyes Black Star Dragon and the Red-Eyes Black Dragon, even if he is a Sovereign Realm, he dare not underestimate the Magic Cards created by Lu Li.

"You can say yes, or you can say no." Lu Li nodded and shook his head again.

The Eye of Timaeus, this is the Magic Card Lu Li intends to create next. It is the incarnation of the legendary dragon, which is also the reason why he specified the Dragon-type material of dragon pupils.

The rank of the legendary dragon should normally be higher than the Red-Eyes Black Dragon. With his current strength, it is naturally not enough to create the true Legendary Dragon Timaeus.

But Lu Li didn't need to create the true Legendary Dragon, because what he needed was actually Timaeus's ability.

This point can be achieved through the Magic Card "Eye of Timaeus."

In Lu Li's conception, the ability of the Eye of Timaeus is basically concentrated on the "eye," so dragon pupils are a must.

What does this mean?

Nodding and shaking his head, Cang Fenghua and the others were all confused. You are a Magic Card Master, after all; you haven't even figured out the Magic Card you want to create? Everyone became a little anxious for a rare moment.

However, Cang Fenghua and the others had experienced quite a few storms after all. Although they were provoked by Lu Li's curiosity, they finally didn't continue to ask.

Magic Card creation involves the secrets of a Magic Card Master, and if Lu Li is creating an original Magic Card, there are indeed many unknowns.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Lu Li would have such a performance just now.

However, thinking that Lu Li is still creating an original Dragon-type Magic Card next, the three couldn't help but feel sour in their hearts. If possible, they also wanted to create original Magic Cards, even if they weren't Dragon-type Magic Cards.

So angry! A Magic Card Master with an original worldview in hand is just so willful.

"If it were other Dragon-type materials, there would still be stock in the City Lord's Mansion, but if it must be dragon pupils, then I really can't take them out for a while." Complaining in his heart, Cang Fenghua spread his hands helplessly: "The last pair of dragon pupils was used by me three months ago."

In the City Lord's Mansion, there are not many Magic Card Masters who can use Dragon-type materials at will, and Cang Fenghua is undoubtedly the one with the most qualifications and strength among them.

It is a pity that the Magic Card Cang Fenghua created back then did not succeed, and all the materials, including the dragon pupils, were blown up together.

For this reason, Cang Fenghua felt a bit of regret. Although he was not short of money, finding suitable materials was not an easy thing.

The difficulty of obtaining materials is also one of the main limitations restricting Magic Card Masters from creating Magic Cards.

"Is that so." Hearing Cang Fenghua's explanation, Lu Li also felt a bit of regret.

However, since he couldn't create the Eye of Timaeus, he would create other Magic Cards, such as the Fang of Critias, or the Claw of Hermos, which could also use the power of the legendary dragon. Lu Li didn't believe he couldn't create even one Magic Card.

If it really came to that, then Lu Li didn't have to create the legendary dragon's Magic Card. Anyway, there were quite a few other Magic Card concepts in his mind, and there were quite a few choices, it just required a little more time.

Just as Lu Li intended to propose other material requirements, Cang Fenghua spoke again: "However, the City Lord's Mansion doesn't have them, which doesn't mean other places don't have them."

As he spoke, Cang Fenghua's gaze fell on Yu Haojia. If he really had to say it, the Magic Card Association was not much worse than the City Lord's Mansion, and it was even richer.

49. When You're Old, You Need to Find Some Fun

Damn!

Seeing Cang Fenghua's gaze fall on him, Yu Haojia couldn't help but roll his eyes wildly. This bastard old boy, he actually had designs on him.

"Old Yu, Lu Li is a member of the Cangling City Magic Card Association after all. Now that a member is in trouble, shouldn't you show something?" Cang Fenghua coughed and reminded: "After all, the stronger his strength, the better it is for us."

"That's right, Old man Yu, everyone is so familiar, just help if you can." Gu Fa also helped from the side. Anyway, whoever gives it is fine, Lu Li is the beneficiary, and the result is the same.

Clearly you promised it yourself, what does it have to do with me? Hearing Cang Fenghua's statement, Yu Haojia was so angry.

I have already made an exception to recruit Lu Li to join the association, and even as long as he successfully creates three six-star Magic Cards before the college entrance exam ends, he will be given the treatment of an elite member. Is this back door not enough?

Also, Gu Fa, why are you butting in? Don't think I don't know what you're planning!

Although he was unhappy with the two, Yu Haojia finally said: "The association does have dragon pupils, but they belong to the association. Even if I am the branch president, I cannot use these materials privately at will."

When saying words like "privately" and "at will," Yu Haojia specifically emphasized his tone.

Just say it if you want money!

Old and refined, and the two sides have not known each other for just one day, Cang Fenghua naturally heard the potential meaning in Yu Haojia's tone.

"Fine, just give me a number." However, Cang Fenghua had no intention of arguing. Although he had designs on Yu Haojia, he also knew that the other party could not use the association's resources at will.

The Magic Card Association governs the Magic Card Masters of the entire ancient kingdom and possesses a very perfect set of rules internally. Even the branch presidents of each branch cannot break these rules at will.

"I won't go as far as to open my mouth like a lion." Shaking his head, Yu Haojia turned to look at Lu Li: "Since Cang Fenghua is paying, I will order people to prepare it after I go back. At the latest, in two days, I will hand the materials to you."

"However, the association only has one pair of dragon pupils left, so I suggest you wait until you have a greater grasp before creating new Magic Cards." Yu Haojia exhorted.

Even for a Sovereign like him, there is a possibility of blowing up a card when creating a Magic Card. Although Lu Li has already successfully created two six-star original Magic Cards, there is no guarantee that he will always be so smooth when creating Magic Cards next.

Especially since what he is creating is a Dragon-type Magic Card, which is known for its high difficulty.

In Yu Haojia's memory, there has never been a Magic Card Master who can maintain a 100% completion rate, even for Immortal Realm or Undying Realm Magic Card Masters who are stronger than them, they cannot do this.
