Chapter 37 Chapter 37: Successful Advancement! Battle for the Championship

“So it’s earth-type spells. Your proficiency is not bad, but the casting time is too long.”

Bai Ze smiled and commented.

After hearing his words, the other party’s face immediately turned icy cold.

Just as he was about to follow up with another strike, a meter-long icicle appeared behind him in the next second.

The icicle floated in the air, emitting a frightening icy cold light.

The young man who cultivated earth-type spells was so terrified that he didn’t dare to move and chose to surrender.

His opponent did not even unleash his magic rings, yet he was able to launch a magic attack behind him quietly. With such a great discrepancy in ability, there was no need to continue fighting anymore. When the judge standing on the side saw that the other party had surrendered, he immediately announced Bai Ze as the winner.

“Not bad. I don’t need to waste any more effort. “

Bai Ze walked down the arena beaming widely, then returned to his spectator seat.

There were nearly two hundred battle arenas in the venue, and most of the mages were still fighting

With his outstanding spiritual power perception, Bai Ze immediately found the arena where Wu Feng was.

At this moment, Wu Feng was casting wind-type spells. Countless Wind Blades condensed in front of him. Although the power of a single Wind Blade was not great, Wu Feng had the advantage of being able to condense a large number of them.

Although his opponent was still trying to block him, his magic power was decreasing rapidly, and defeat was only a matter of time.

“Not bad. You’ve actually practiced the D-class Wind Blade technique to the Familiar level.”

Bai Ze raised his eyebrows and began casting his eyes on the arena where the fourth ring mages were fighting.

At the fourth ring level, a mage’s magic style had already solidified. They would usually major in one or two attribute-based spells and also have the help of precious tools. They would not drag out their battles and made for enjoyable viewing.

At this moment, his gaze was attracted by one particular student.

Although the student was dressed in the elite school’s uniform, there was a band on his waist that emitted a faint light.

With a single look, he could tell it was a high-grade precious tool.

The young man was a close-range offensive fighter. He condensed magic power at his fingertips and directly attacked the opponent’s vital points. He also combined his strikes with an impressive speed-type spell.

His opponent was practically unable to fight back, and the flaming armor he had condensed was easily dispersed by him.

He ended the battle effortlessly.

This kind of expert was rare in the Nine Academies Joint Examination.

Bai Ze scanned through the hundreds of arenas and only found a few such talents.

However, he did discover many rules that he had never encountered before.

For example, they could forgo their magic staves and concentrate their magic power on their fingertips to use them as close-range combat weapons.

Another example was to use magic to create virtual avatars and engage in group battles in the name of justice.

There were even some who cast large-scale magic spells, turning their opponents into frozen ice sculptures straightaway.

With all kinds of experts gathered here, Bai Ze’s heart was aflutter with great expectations.

He didn’t know if the rules he cultivated could suppress those top experts.

The battle of the third batch of contestants soon came to an end.

At this point, all the students present had completed their first round of battle.

Compared to the start of the battle, the number of students left had already decreased by a lot.

The remaining 500 or so contestants returned to the spectator area to rest and wait for the second round of battle.

During the break, the exhibition match continued without delay.

The staff members in the spectator area also distributed small magic power recovery potions to the contestants for them to replenish the magic power expended in the first round of battle.

“Ah…”

Wu Feng swallowed the magic potion in one gulp, then laid back on the seat like a lazy slouch, feeling the magic power in his body gradually recovering. Bai Ze had the powerful ability of Magic Surge, so he had no need for this at all.

However, with the mentality that it would be a waste if he didn’t take advantage of it, he still accepted it.

“Burp… This thing is quite sweet.”

Bai Ze smacked his lips and gave his two cents worth of evaluation.

After throwing the empty potion bottle into the trash can, Bai Ze looked at Wu Feng, who was lying like a corpse, and said with a smile, “How is it? Do you have the confidence to win the second round?”

Wu Feng sat up straight and felt the magic energy in his body gradually replenishing. He patted his chest and said in an expansive manner, “Not that I want to brag, but as long as my opponent doesn’t have three rings, I have a high chance of winning!”

Bai Ze was a little dumbfounded. “Er… I just checked around. After the first round, there are less than 100 second ring mages left. Are you sure you can draw another second ring mage?”

“Huh?”

After hearing Bai Ze’s analysis, Wu Feng was instantly dumbfounded. His confidence vanished completely.

“Alright, I won’t discourage you anymore. Just do your best. I saw that your Wind Blade technique was quite good, but there’s just a small problem.”

“After the Wind Blade is formed, you have to consciously control the direction and speed of the Wind Blade instead of letting it charge freely at the opponent. It’s too much of a waste of magic power.”

Bai Ze frowned slightly. After a few seconds of silence, he offered the above suggestion.

Wu Feng also fell into deep thought, as if he was thinking about the feasibility.

The second round of the advancement stage began very quickly, and everyone drew their lots again.

Wu Feng braced himself like he was going to the execution ground, while Bai Ze won the second match in an extremely relaxed manner.

In the second round, the opponent was a third ring mage. Bai Ze still dodged all the opponent’s spells with fleeting speed and ended the battle with an icicle.

The entire process took less than five minutes.

The reason he did this was to leave an inherent impression on others, to make them think that he only knew two spells and that the reason he could win was because of his higher proficiency level.

He believed that in this competition, there would be many people who would do the same.

Back in the spectator area, Bai Ze continued to watch the battle.

He focused his attention on all the fourth ring mages.

This was because in the final battle for the championship, he would have to fight against those fourth ring mages.

This time, his attention was focused on a girl.

The girl’s hair was tied into two ponytails and her eyes were sharp. What attracted Bai Ze’s attention was the long-range magic spells that she cultivated.

According to his judgment and analysis, Bai Ze found that the girl had cultivated at least four long-range attack spells, and their levels were not low.

What surprised him the most was that the girl who had just come of age could actually release three spells at the same time while controlling them to attack the enemy concurrently

Her spells included Lightning Blink, Fire Rain, and Water Bullet. Under her airtight attacks, the enemies couldn’t even fight back, and each battle was finished within three minutes.

The other party’s ability was enough to be ranked in the top ten of this joint competition, so not surprisingly, Bai Ze paid more attention to her.

Of course, this included Lin Xi and Ling Quan, who were both fourth ring mages from his own school.

The two of them continued their usual fighting style. Lin Xi used wood-type spells as her main weapon, and the precious tools she matched to her ability were all very compatible.

As soon as the battle began, she was the first to condense countless vines to trap her opponent and straightaway threw him out of the arena.

One of her opponents was a mage at the peak of his third ring.

It was a pity that the unlucky guy was thrown out of the arena before he could even unleash his magic. It was truly a tragic outcome.
