Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone-Chapter 500 - 361: Exchange Visit, Moon Elf Silvanas

Fang Zhou naturally wouldn’t hide his true thoughts from Instructor Xinyan. He wore an expression of supreme confidence and said with a smile, "After the grade-skipping assessment is over, I’ll familiarize myself with these new skills, and then I can try to challenge Senior Gu Yueyuan. I don’t think he’s much stronger than me."

Su Xinyan loved this confidence of his, and her eyes softened with an alluring tenderness. After a moment’s thought, she said to Fang Zhou, "By the way, there’s something I need to tell you in advance. Lately, I’ve been in frequent contact with Master Sandro, and he has also been closely watching your growth and progress. After hearing about your outstanding performance in the Longxia Federation’s new soldier competition, he was so eager that he immediately submitted an application to become a visiting instructor at our Sea City Military Academy."

"Our instructors’ council recently held a vote and decided to accept Master Sandro as a visiting instructor. He’s now processing the exchange procedures between the Purple Iris Alliance and the Longxia Federation. With the invitation letter from our Sea City Military Academy, it probably won’t be long before Master Sandro arrives to teach."

Su Xinyan continued, "I looked at his application materials. According to his plan, he also intends to bring one of his apprentices to our Sea City Military Academy as a transfer student. His apprentice is apparently a very rare Undead Mage from the Elf Race."

Hearing this, Fang Zhou looked excited. He smiled and said, "It’s great that Master Sandro is coming! I just broke through the bottleneck to reach the Black Iron Rank, and there are still many Undead Mage skills that I need to develop and perfect. With Master Sandro joining our Undead Mage research group, we’ll be unstoppable, and our progress will advance by leaps and bounds."

After a moment’s thought, Fang Zhou hesitated briefly but decided to give Instructor Su Xinyan a heads-up about his plan to develop a Corrosive Poison Series skill tree. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"By the way, Instructor Xinyan, there was a little discovery I made during my breakthrough that I haven’t had a chance to tell you about yet. I’ve gained some understanding of the Zombie Race’s talent skill, Corrosive Poison Incarnation. Next, I want to use the Corrosive Poison Incarnation skill as a foundation to see if I can develop some Corrosive Poison Series skills for our Undead Mage Profession."

Upon hearing this, Su Xinyan’s expression grew complex—a mixture of surprise, doubt, and even shock. "A Zombie’s talent skill? A Corrosive Poison Series Skill Tree?" she asked, seeming to make sure she had heard him correctly. "Do you mean that just like how you developed the Skeleton Series skill tree during the Apprentice Stage, you’re now going to start developing a Corrosive Poison Series skill tree?"

Fang Zhou nodded. "Yes, that’s my plan. However, it’s just a preliminary idea for now, and I lack a concrete path to implement it. During my breakthrough, I had a few flashes of inspiration for Corrosive Poison Series skills, but I’ll need to do more research to put them into practice. Therefore, I plan to start with the existing Black Iron-Rank Undead Mage skills to see if I can find some ideas and inspiration there."

After listening, Su Xinyan couldn’t help but reveal a look of utter disbelief. She took a deep breath, trying to calm the shock in her heart. "I had always thought your talent was extremely rare, given you could continuously develop and perfect the Skeleton Series skill tree to keep it in sync with your growing power. I never expected that just after breaking through to a new rank, you would already have inspiration for a whole new skill tree. In all my years of cultivation, I’ve never heard of a prodigy like you." As she spoke, Su Xinyan couldn’t help but shake her head, her voice filled with genuine admiration.

"Master Sandro has ventured many times into the ruins of the Naraku Civilization. I think if even he knew about your situation, he would find it hard to contain his excitement. It’s truly our Undead Mage Profession’s good fortune to have a rising star and genius like you."

Faced with Su Xinyan’s praise, Fang Zhou remained remarkably calm. It was all just thanks to his talent and hard work, with a little help from the attribute panel and the corpse clone. It was hardly an achievement worth boasting about.

At this point, Su Xinyan added, "Developing a new Corrosive Poison Series skill tree is an extremely challenging task. The research work ahead will be immense. At a time like this, the arrival of Master Sandro and his apprentice is undoubtedly a much-needed boon. After all, with only my own knowledge and strength, I might not be able to answer every question you encounter during your research."

Hearing this, Fang Zhou couldn’t help but grow curious. He asked, "As a Golden Upper Rank Great Undead Mage, Master Sandro is the strongest among human Undead Mages. His strength and experience are undoubtedly top-notch. But what’s the story with his apprentice? I’ve only ever read about the Elf Race in academy lectures and seen them in pictorials; I’ve never actually seen an Elf in real life."

Su Xinyan reached out, her fingertips lightly brushing against Fang Zhou’s muscles, which were particularly firm from his long-term training. She recalled, "I just skimmed his apprentice’s file. She seems to be a female Moon Elf named Silvanas, and her strength has already reached the Lower Black Iron Rank."
