Phoenix Warrior of Full-Time Magister

Chapter 75 First Battle

The next day, the morning was for competition between other schools, and the afternoon was for competition between Mingzhu Academy and Didu Academy.

This sparring match was naturally the highlight; if the arena hadn't been partially closed, it would have been packed with people.

The arena is very large and imposing, and the huge white pillars outside the door remind one of the grandeur of the Colosseum in ancient Rome.

The style of the arena is quite different, and it is also modeled after the Roman Colosseum. It is shaped like a circular ring, and some specially designed honeycomb-like openwork makes it stand tall and more visually appealing.

Except for Mo Fan, who needed to catch up on sleep, everyone else, including Yun Hua, went with Gu Han early to watch the competitions of other schools.

The competition was fierce on the field, and off the field, students from Mingzhu Academy and Didu Academy were also exchanging barbs in language.

Because Luo Song was from the capital but went to study at the Pearl Academy, he became the first target of the attack.

"Luo Song, you're a smart man too. You didn't want to be the tail of the phoenix, so you ran to be the head of the chicken—come to think of it, someone like you is only mediocre in the Imperial Academy, and it's not your turn to fight." A very strong student from the Imperial Academy named Xu Dalong spoke first.

The two sides engaged in a fierce verbal battle, exchanging words back and forth. Not a single word was offensive, yet every sentence was infuriating, fully demonstrating the power of language.

The morning passed quickly, and Mo Fan arrived late in the afternoon just as the competition between Mingzhu Academy and Didu Academy was about to begin.

The competition format is a four-on-four team match.

Currently, not everyone possesses a wide range of magic, so one-on-one duels are basically just a matter of exchanging blows, and whoever has the most solid strength wins, which is rather monotonous.

Team battles are a different story. With various skills, magical artifacts, mutual cover and cooperation, and the interplay of spells, there are many variations, which greatly test a mage's combat ability and on-the-spot adaptability!

The two sides reached a friendly agreement to play a total of two games.

In the first round, the four players from Mingzhu Academy who went first were Yun Hua, Shen Mingxiao, Luo Song, and Zhao Manyan.

"To be fair, no magical tools or artifacts are allowed in this team competition. Let's compete through magic and stop when we've reached a point of no return!"

This rule is a good thing for ordinary students. There are countless children from aristocratic families in the capital, and it's impossible for them not to have a few decent magical tools. If magical tools and artifacts are banned, then it will be a matter of real ability.

The two sides signaled to each other, and at the referee's command, the battle began!

From the very beginning, the difference in personnel was immediately apparent. The formation of the Pearl Academy was somewhat scattered, making it difficult to discern who was leading the charge or who should be positioned further back. In contrast, the four individuals from the Imperial Capital Academy had likely been practicing together for quite some time, as their formation was completed instantly, forming a perfect cross.

Zhao Manyan stood at the very back. As a light-elemental mage, he usually protected his teammates. However, after glancing at the battle, he felt that he would have very few opportunities to make a move in this sparring match.

Because at the very start of the race, Yunhua launched himself into the air and instantly appeared in front of a girl named Jingjing.

At this moment, a deep green star map rapidly condensed beneath her feet, and the long star trails within the star map transformed into winding vines, slowly coiling up the girl's delicate, long legs.

The magic coiled around her, and judging from the vines, it must be a mid-level plant-based magic, but she no longer had the chance to release it.

When Yunhua reached her, he kicked her and sent her flying along with the vines on her body, thus ending his magic.

Yunhua's leg strike was so powerful that it sent her flying to the edge of the arena. If it weren't for the soft water barrier above, the mage named Jingjing would have had to leave the arena after only three seconds.

This was only because Yunhua held back during the attack; otherwise, given the fragile physique of a mage, even a minor injury would be considered fortunate. But even so, Mage Jingjing felt unbearable abdominal pain and would be unable to continue fighting for a while.

Losing one player right after entering the arena startled the other students from the Imperial Capital Academy, especially the mage named Xu Dalong who was closest to him.

Xu Dalong is a typical muscular man. Although he looks very different from a mage, he still fights with magic and never engages in close combat.

Seeing Yunhua turn her gaze to him, Xu Dalong's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately used a beginner-level earth magic.

The once flat ground suddenly developed wrinkles, which undulated and were accompanied by strange shaking, stretching, or contracting of the ground.

Under the influence of the ground wave, Yunhua was forced to move away, but before leaving, he left them with a Poison Essence Breathing Technique. A large amount of poisonous mist emerged from Yunhua's body, quickly surrounding the others and blocking their vision while causing damage.

The green poisonous fog was terrifying to look at, and the people from the Imperial Academy didn't even dare to breathe. Fortunately, there was a wind mage among them who used the power of wind to disperse the poisonous fog.

However, because they focused their attention on Yunhua and didn't pay attention to the others, Rosson's ice magic was ready, and several ice chains, under Rosson's control, attacked the other side.

Meanwhile, another female mage from the Imperial Capital Academy, Zhao Mingyue, took a step forward, and flames suddenly erupted, illuminating the entire arena in a crimson hue.

Flames first appeared around her body, spreading out in rings of blazing fire. With a loud shout from Zhao Mingyue, all the flame spirits condensed on her right wrist.

Zhao Mingyue's hair flew wildly in the heat, and her seemingly soft punch became incredibly fierce against the backdrop of the flames!

The Fierce Fist strikes in a fan shape; the farther it travels, the wider its impact range.

Finally, the massive flames struck the ice lock, and the two mid-level spells canceled each other out.

However, Shen Mingxiao was not the only one who used intermediate-level magic; he also completed his intermediate-level magic.

Shen Mingxiao used wind magic. A gust of wind swept through the arena, and the wind grew stronger and stronger. Although the wind was invisible, the dust it stirred up had already outlined its shape. It was a tornado that was spinning violently and rising continuously!

The tornado was at least two meters in diameter. Under Shen Mingxiao's control, it moved laterally toward the people of the Imperial Capital Academy, violently trying to drag everything in front of it into the domain torn apart by its gale.

On the other side, Liao Mingxuan, dressed in white, clearly had a higher level of magical skill than Shen Mingxiao. Although he was delayed for a while by the poisonous fog, he still completed his spell. His clothes were fluttering with a gust of air rising from his feet.

Both being of the wind element, Liao Mingxuan and Shen Mingxiao will have a battle of wind against wind!
