Versatile Mage: Starting with the White Tiger Pendant

The Cold Hunter King of the Clear Sky Hunter Agency, one of the two Hunter Kings in the China region over the last decade.

Lu Jun, familiar with the plot, actually knew the truth about the Cold Hunter King's death—it was caused by the Red Devil. The origins of this creature were incredibly complex, beyond what he could investigate at his current level.

In the future, Mo Fan would ascend to the Evil Saint King by devouring the Red Devil, a powerful supplement for his Demon Element, showcasing just how terrifying this entity was.

Lu Jun even suspected that Lu Nian's original research was based on the Red Devil as a sample, which led to the creation of the Demon Element, making the two intricately linked.

"Strange, why am I constantly running into monsters and demons these days?"

Lu Jun muttered inwardly but remained expressionless on the surface.

Lingling, seeing her grandfather apologize on her behalf, felt guilty and realized her mistake. She took the initiative to say, "Sister, I'm sorry. I was wrong."

Lu Mei saw the little girl's sincerity and waved her hand to let it go.

"You're here for an interview, right?" The old man finally got to the point, speaking kindly, "My surname is Bao. From now on, just call me Old Bao."

A lie! Lu Jun knew the man's real name was Song Qiming, a former high-ranking official in the Holy City with significant international influence. However, Lu Jun was wise enough not to expose him. Forbidden Curse identities had to be kept secret, and he couldn't explain how he knew anyway.

Old Bao chatted briefly with the two, praising them, "You're both mages from Bo City, and so young yet already at the Intermediate level. Remarkable potential. Excellent!"

After pondering for a moment, he made a decision, saying, "Alright, you two are in. Welcome to the Clear Sky Hunter Agency."

"You two siblings can start by familiarizing yourselves with each other. I'll assign you as a team for now. Since you're only at the Intermediate level, we'll hold off on the more challenging commissions until you reach the Advanced level."

Lu Mei was slightly surprised. He casually mentioned the Advanced level as the threshold, indicating the high standards of this agency. It seemed her brother had indeed found an extraordinary place to work.

After some small talk, the two bid farewell to Old Bao. On their way out, Lu Jun reflected on his recent days in Shanghai, feeling a mix of emotions. Unknowingly, he had already made connections with all the city's "gatekeepers."

Until the day classes started, nothing major happened. He just spent his time on patrol with the city's Hunter Team and continued training.

Lu Jun also immersed himself in his cultivation. Aside from striving to break through to Intermediate Level 2 in the Metal Element, he focused most of his energy on the Psychic and Curse Elements.

In high school, his strength was sufficient, but at the university level, where experts were everywhere, relying on the Metal Element too often would risk exposing his secret. It was time to rely on the Curse Element to dominate.

A few days ago, he combined the two elements to completely overwhelm an Intermediate mage, leaving them severely traumatized. While part of this was due to his superior mental state, the combination of the two elements indeed had astonishing power.

It was said that the African Medusa Mother, one of the first human mages to master the Psychic and Curse Elements, created the powerful move "Medusa's Gaze," proving the potential of these elements.

In his apartment, Lu Jun sat cross-legged, conducting a peculiar experiment. His mind delved into the Transparent Star Dust, where a translucent mass of spiritual energy writhed, constantly shifting shapes.

The Psychic Element's Basic Level 2 spell, Spiritual Ripple: Mental Shock, was a mere interruption spell, capable of disorienting opponents for a moment.

Lu Jun wanted to modify it into an offensive spell. This wasn't impossible, as most Psychic mages simply followed the standard process of releasing magic, forming a crude outward flow of energy.

Lu Jun pondered: what if he repeatedly refined his spiritual energy, tempering it into steel, and condensed it into a single thread as sharp as a needle? Once unleashed, wouldn't it be capable of obliterating souls?

By concentrating his efforts, he hoped to turn this idea into a trump card, maximizing his destructive potential despite the limitations of his spiritual power.

But how could he temper his spiritual energy into a needle? What external force could he use?

Lu Jun had long conceived a plan—using the Metal Element. In his spiritual world, a platinum star cloud shimmered with sharp energy, with a sword mark at its core exuding murderous intent.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

For the first time, Lu Jun guided the power of the Metal Star Cloud. Threads of platinum light crossed boundaries and entered the realm of other star dust. This was extremely risky, but his precise control, thanks to the Psychic and Curse Elements, helped him succeed.

The translucent Psychic Star Dust trembled under the tempering of the platinum light, and a mass of spiritual energy began to take the shape of a rough sword.

Despite the dizziness, Lu Jun concentrated on his operation and felt a surge of joy when he saw the results.

It seemed viable. The Psychic Element's adaptability might be unparalleled among magic systems, effortlessly transforming under the abuse of the Metal Element.

Time flew by, and ten days passed.

Since the day he encountered Lu Dong, the man hadn't come looking for him again, likely frightened off. Lu Nian also hadn't made a move.

At this point, Lu Jun had painstakingly condensed a translucent, miniature sword. Although he hadn't managed to refine it into a needle as originally planned, compressing it into a psychic sword was still a notable achievement.

He felt the danger of continuing further compression and lacked the confidence to proceed, fearing harm to the star cloud. It seemed he would have to wait until his mental realm improved before attempting further refinement.

"Not bad. I wonder how powerful it is."

Lu Jun observed the crystal-clear sword floating in his spiritual world, surrounded by seven stars, and nodded in satisfaction.

The aura of danger emanating from it made him cautious about testing it on anyone, as it could potentially reduce them to a vegetative state.

Meanwhile, the Metal Star Cloud had also undergone significant changes. The experiments seemed to benefit not only the Psychic Element but also honed his Metal Element.

As Lu Jun continued his routine of city patrols and secluded cultivation, a phone call broke the monotony.

Seeing "Teacher Tang Yue" on the communicator, he was surprised. Then, his memory clicked. At this time, Tang Yue was on an assignment for the Enforcement Union.

She was investigating the drying up of rivers in Hangzhou's Xishui Town while also hunting down a fugitive named Chao He.

The critical point was that the river's drying up was caused by the emergence of a Fire Elemental Spirit Seed. Mo Fan had originally obtained his Rose Flame from this incident.

"Huh?" Lu Jun was taken aback. Tang Yue was contacting him instead of Mo Fan?

After some thought, he realized it wasn't surprising. Given their lack of interaction, she had no reason to involve Mo Fan. Instead, she shared a camaraderie with him, having recently destroyed a Black Vatican scheme together.

"Oh no, her situation is dangerous!"

Recalling the detailed events of this incident, Lu Jun couldn't stay calm. He quickly answered the call. On the other end, a pleasant, melodious voice said, "Hello? How have you been? Interested in earning some money? I need a Curse mage for a mission to deal with—"

"Got it! Stay where you are. I'm on my way!"

Lu Jun interrupted before she could finish, immediately putting on his clothes and preparing to head to Hangzhou.

Shanghai wasn't far from Hangzhou—two hours by train at most.

In the spacious living room, Lu Mei opened her eyes and saw her brother rushing about. Puzzled, she asked, "Lu Jun, where are you going?"

"Ah?" At the door, Lu Jun, while putting on his shoes, paused and replied honestly, "To help Teacher Tang Yue with a mission and rescue her. I can handle it alone."

Hearing the name "Tang Yue," Lu Mei instinctively felt something was off. However, knowing her brother's honesty and Tang Yue's role as an Enforcement Union member, she figured it was legitimate work.

She didn't stop him but gently said, "Be careful. Let me know if anything happens."

"Got it." The voice echoed from the doorway as her brother disappeared.

Watching him leave, Lu Mei furrowed her brows and muttered, "Running off so quickly."
