Demon King Mo Fan was eventually declared the winner of the duel. The speech he gave before the duel, which looked down on every other young Mage in the world, naturally spread like a plague across the planet. It became a trending topic among the Mages.

“Ningxue, I was wondering how we could promote our Fanxue Mountain so at least the people of our country would know who we are, but I think we can save the money now. Not only did our boss make sure the whole country remembers our name, people across the whole world know there’s someone called Mo Fan from Fanxue Mountain…” Mu Linsheng told Mu Ningxue after he quickly calculated the budget he had initially planned for marketing purposes.
Mu Linsheng showed the figure to Mu Ningxue when he was done.
“What about the Golden Reef Armor?” Mu Ningxue asked.
“The forgemaster has reforged it multiple times based on our requirements. I’m afraid he isn’t willing to reforge it again. Ningxue, I think we should just forget about it after seeing Mo Fan’s strength. I doubt anything below the Heaven-grade is going to be useful for him,” Mu Linsheng sighed.
Mu Ningxue was troubled too. She had prepared a nice armor for Mo Fan for when he came back from Greece. It was forged with pure quartz reefstone, and thus was capable of withstanding powerful attacks. However, Mo Fan’s strength had improved at an insane rate during the past few years. She kept feeling the armor was not that useful to him, so she had continued to invest money in it so the forgemaster could enhance it further. Yet no matter how often she did it, it still struggled to catch up with Mo Fan’s cultivation and the level of the enemies he had been facing.
She was like a mother who did not stay with her child. She had finally knit a sweater for her son, but the kid had grown a lot bulkier and taller in no time. She took the sweater back to readjust its size, but when she was done with it, it still did not fit him. The kid was growing like he had been injected with hormones!
“Let’s sell the armor. Yu Shishi is making a Heaven Seed for Mo Fan. Let’s see if we can find the materials she needs,” Mu Ningxue proposed.
“Sell it? We have put in so much effort… fine,” Mu Linsheng conceded with a wry smile. On second thought, the armor was not really going to be much use to Mo Fan, since he already had the Heavenly Gate.
“We’ll use the money we saved for marketing to buy the materials Yu Shishi needs, too,” Mu Ningxue added thoughtfully.
“Ningxue, how about this… since our boss has already given his huge speech, why don’t we make the day of the duel Fanxue Day? It’s rare for the Magic Association to allow anyone to hold duels, but Mo Fan is obviously an exception. Both Mages and ordinary people admire powerful magic. If we can hold something like a festival by decorating the streets, giving out some tax refund discounts, inviting celebrities, hiring famous chefs, and organizing some special events, we can make the duel between Mo Fan and any challengers the finale?” Mu Linsheng proposed.
Mo Fan’s boastful speech had spread across the world. Ninety-nine percent of the Mages across the world wanted to beat the crap out of him. On the other hand, it was extremely rare to have official duels above the Advanced Level, and people enjoyed watching them. The challenge Mo Fan gave to every young Mage in the world was most likely going to start a huge chain reaction that would help with Fanxue Mountain’s development. Otherwise, Fanxue Mountain might only stay a local tyrant, as its growth would be limited.
“Sure, it’s a great idea!” Mu Ningxue had already accepted many challenges on Mo Fan’s behalf. She had also noticed that many people were interested in watching the duels. He Yao, who had won the title of the strongest young Mage of Feiniao Headquarters City, was a great example. He had attracted a huge crowd to Fanxue Mountain when he challenged Mo Fan.
Mo Fan was a born troublemaker. Many people were jealous of him, but he also had a lot of supporters. The people would look forward to more duels like the one between Mo Fan and Zu Xiangtian!
Zu Xiangtian did not represent the world. He could not even represent China. Mo Fan’s challenge was definitely going to attract stronger opponents. It was a great way for Mo Fan to train himself!
“We can keep holding it as long as boss doesn’t lose,” Mu Linsheng added cunningly.
“He won’t,” Mu Ningxue said confidently.
Just like the fight between him and Yu Ang at the Mu Clan’s mansion, Mo Fan would always surprise the people around him. Mu Ningxue did not know Mo Fan very well back then, but that was no longer the case now. She knew Mo Fan did not even use his true strength to beat Zu Xiangtian.
He had definitely preserved his strength. During the duel between him and Yu Ang, when everyone thought his Fire Element was at its limit, he had surprised everyone with the Lightning Element.
Many people saw Mo Fan in a bad shape when he defeated Zu Xiangtian. It seemed like a close match, but was that really the case?
Mo Fan had never even used his Fire Element!
Mo Fan’s Fire Element had already reached the Super Level! Little Flame Belle must have evolved by now, after cultivating diligently for a long time under Xinxia’s care. If she guessed right, the Fire Element was Mo Fan’s real trump card!

“Huh? Is that really a good idea? Xuexue, you are giving wages to so many people now. I can sort out the materials for the Heaven Seed myself,” Mo Fan protested righteously.
“You will only waste your time doing it yourself. After all, you won’t necessarily find these high purity elemental ores in auctions. Some are in the hands of factionless Mages. If we use Fanxue Mountain’s name to collect them, people who are scared of being scammed will be more willing to sell them to us. We can slowly gather the materials,” Mu Ningxue replied confidently.
“You’re right, it’s a little tricky to do it myself.” Mo Fan did not turn the offer down again.
The amount of materials needed to make the Heaven Seed was high, and some of the materials were extremely rare. Mo Fan was going to Greece tomorrow. He had to wake Mu Bai up and continue looking for Totem Beasts!
“It’s settled then, rest early,” Mu Ningxue turned off the light, draped a thin windbreaker over her shoulders, and headed for the door.
“Mm? Xuexue, do you have something else to do?” Mo Fan was confused.
“Not really.”
“Where are you going then? Aren’t you going to sleep?”
“Back to my room,” Mu Ningxue turned around and said.
“Shouldn’t you change and hop in my bed? I’ve warmed it for you!” Mo Fan raised his brows.
“We haven’t really performed any ceremony, so it’s not a good idea for us to stay together.”
“Fine, go back to your room and leave the window open. I’ll Blink into it later. Hehehe, doing it secretly is indeed more thrilling! I didn’t know you liked it that way,” Mo Fan smiled.
“…” Mu Ningxue looked at Mo Fan. She suddenly had a feeling she should ask someone to check Mo Fan’s head to see if there were any hidden wounds in it…
