The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again

As the referee announced loudly, applause broke out from all directions, and the teams from both sides took turns to go on stage.

Looking down from a high place, the red part completely overwhelmed the blue part. The obvious difference in numbers made the outcome of this battle seem doomed before it even started.

Inside the silver-white box, a tall, handsome middle-aged man was sitting on a luxurious single chair, his chin supported by one hand, his eyes taking in the scene on the field below through the glass window.

There were three other people standing in the box besides him. Although there were seats nearby, they all stood respectfully behind the man and watched the game together.

Before the battle began, the man suddenly asked, "Who do you think will win?"

The three of them fell into deep thought after hearing this.

One of them answered after more than ten seconds: "Your Highness's academy is more powerful in terms of both numbers and strength. I think their advantage is obvious."

Another person offered a different opinion: "You saw yesterday's match. That freshman from the Water Academy must have hidden a lot of things. Your Highness may not be able to stop him."

"Are you looking down on His Highness?" the former immediately frowned and spoke sternly.

"I'm just telling the truth, not a flatterer like you."

"you!"

"Alright, there's no need to talk about looking down on me. I know exactly how strong Yige is. He can't beat that kid alone."

The man waved his hand, interrupting their argument. His gaze was focused less on his son and more on Jiang Liujing, who was surrounded by students from the Water Academy.

This was not the first time he noticed this child with rare and beautiful long black hair. In fact, the man had noticed him before he showed his strength, but that time it was because of his appearance.

The features of black hair and black eyes are too rare. Once they appear, they are scrambled for by the nobles. If one does not have the strength to match this beauty, it can easily turn into a regrettable tragedy.

As a man, he would not have any covetous thoughts, but the child's appearance reminded him of his queen who had run away and had not returned for half a year.

They all have black hair and black eyes, and I can't help but take a few more glances.

But later, after seeing his talent, the man's attention was more focused on him.

"Your Highness really wants to win," the one who had remained silent among the three suddenly spoke. His voice was hoarse, as if his throat had been burned by fire.

The man said "hmm" lightly, and his eyes remained calm as he looked at the audience: "I know."

"He's not a competitive kid by nature. If I weren't here, his pride wouldn't have led him to do something like this."

His child was like a young animal eager to grow up, determined to prove to his parents that he was capable of living independently, and the prop he used to demonstrate this was his victory in the freshman competition.

but.

The man looked at the ordinary-looking young man in the crowd and said slowly, "Sometimes, encountering setbacks can actually help people grow faster."

In the center of the field, the freshmen from the Fire Academy politely stood at both ends of the Water Academy at the beginning, and then quickly surrounded the Water Academy in a circle, forcing them to stay together and get closer and closer.

In this position, even if they used the formation from yesterday, they would not have much space to move freely.

Just when the people from the Water Academy thought they were about to launch a siege and were vigilantly summoning water shields for defense, the freshmen from the Fire Academy suddenly started running quickly.

As they ran, flames burned all over their bodies. As they ran, the flames on each person connected together, and after a few minutes, a huge ring of fire appeared out of thin air.

After the fire ring was born and separated independently, they stopped running and raised their hands together.

In an instant, the magic power belonging to each person was pulled by the master, and a large piece of light red film suddenly extended upward from the ring of fire. In a few breaths, it was like a semicircular cover covering the heads of the freshmen of the Water Academy. Only a small gap was left in the center.

"What do you mean? Their spell wasn't completed?"

Meimei stood beside Jiang Liujing, looked up at the gap, frowned in confusion.

Jiang Liujing glanced at Ignatius and Vita, who hadn't made a move yet: "They won't make such a low-level mistake."

As he spoke, he moved his fingers slightly, and an ice-blue light appeared on the ground and quickly disappeared. Because of the obstruction of the surrounding crowd and the fire barrier, it was not noticed.

"So what they want to do is..." Before Meimei could finish her words, she saw the entire light red shield suddenly light up, and hundreds of flaming blades floated out from the shield, and then chopped down like a violent storm, forcing everyone in the Water Academy to concentrate on dealing with these attacks.

On the other side, Ignatius also moved.

He stomped his right foot heavily on the ground, and his whole body suddenly flew into the air like a cannonball. He was not a wind element, so he could only stay in the air briefly with the help of the recoil force, but it was enough.

A red light rope shot out from his palm like a snake, and in the blink of an eye it passed through the gap in the light shield and bound Jiang Liujing's waist. With a force, he pulled him out of the crowd as if grabbing a doll!

Amid the exclamations of the audience around him, the figure of the black-haired child was suddenly pulled into the air and out of the light shield.

The moment he was pulled out, the remaining gap in the light shield quickly closed, clearly pre-emptive. The freshmen from the Water Academy were unable to react, and when they turned back, their representative had already disappeared into the crowd. They could only angrily attack the light shield.

The fuse loosened, and Jiang Liujing flipped over and landed on the ground from mid-air. His black hair flew with his movements, and he remained elegant despite the haste.

His expression remained calm and composed. He glanced around, seeing the hundreds of Fire Academy freshmen staring at him. They weren't as fierce as wolves or tigers, but they were clearly focused.

The attack within the flame shield stopped, but the thickness of the shield suddenly increased with the infusion of magic power. Doing so would inevitably break the shield, but it could delay them for enough time.

What they want now is time.

Ignatius stood at the front of the Fire Academy freshmen, staring at Jiang Liujing and said, "I'm sorry, but I have to make sure I can capture you."

After thinking about it all night, he felt that a two-on-one fight was still not safe. After all, Vita had already lost to him, and Ignatius had reasons to win.

So he finally made a decision to concentrate all his strength and take down the Water Academy representative as quickly as possible.

The difference between two against one and one against one was too big, and this strategy obviously couldn't convince Vita. So he made a bet with Vita in the morning, and after winning with a slight advantage, he asked Vita to cooperate with their action.

Vita had a bad temper, but he always kept his promises. Ignatius knew his character and took advantage of it.

He said to Jiang Liujing, "It will take your classmates ten minutes to break that shield. You can't hold out that long. I suggest you give up early. If you insist on continuing, I can't guarantee that I won't hurt you."
