Magic Academy: My Magic Skills Can Automatically Train Themselves 24/7 - Chapter 40

Chapter 40 Chapter 40: Talking Tough? Straightaway Cripple Both Legs

“Yes, but Student Ling Quan from Maplewood Uno High is also using a C-class rule, the Golden Wing Stab. I wonder who will emerge victorious when these two powerful rules collide!”

The female commentator at the side pointed out the other opponent’s ability, and at the same time, the anticipation for the battle between the two was raised.

Although the crystal clear explanation of the two commentators sounded good to others, Bai Ze only felt that the two people sitting on the commentary platform were a little noisy.

On the battle arena.

The Golden Wing Stab and the impenetrable Dense Forest barrier collided.

Upon contact, the golden needles were unable to advance any further.

Ripples repeatedly appeared on the greenish Dense Forest shield as well, and it looked as if it would collapse soon.

“Hmph! Looks like the top of the school from Maplewood Uno High is nothing great.”

The Norton’s representative said disdainfully with a scornful smirk on his face.

Ling Quan raised his head, and a steely glint flashed across his eyes.

Clenching the long rod in his hand, the magic power within his body burst out in a terrifying wave. In the next instant, the long rod was enveloped in golden light, and the surface was even radiating a metallic sheen.

Taking one step back, Ling Quan suddenly rushed forward like a phantom.

The Norton’s representative became a little flustered. He immediately conjured the Dense Forest barrier again while casting two Inferno Bombs at the same time in an attempt to block his opponent’s path.

However, he was too slow in casting the spell. Before the two fireballs could be completely condensed, Ling Quan had already closed in on him.

Pow!

The golden wooden rod struck down like a cannonball, immediately causing a wave of ripples.

However, Ling Quan’s attack was far from over.

Instead, he rained down a barrage of strikes like a raging thunderstorm.

The terrifying force of the impact tore Ling Quan’s school uniform to shreds, revealing his well-toned muscles and bronze-colored body.

The Norton representative’s eyes widened in terror. The scene before him went against his understanding of the common knowledge about magic.

A mage’s focus was on having an open mind. Only when one’s spiritual power was strong enough could one cast outstanding magic.

However, this Ling Quan guy in front of him had such a muscular body and did not look like a mage at all!

“Break!”

Ling Quan let out a furious roar as the magic power in his body converged at the tip of the wooden rod.

In the next moment, he exerted every ounce of strength in his muscles and smashed down with the rod.

Even if the Dense Forest barrier was a C-class rule, how could it possibly withstand such an insane bombardment? In the end, it completely shattered due to the dissipation of magic power.

After breaking through the barrier, Ling Quan’s rod did not stop. Instead, it went straight for the head of the guy behind.

The Norton’s representative only felt the sound of breaking wind whipping across his face. Before he could even open his mouth to admit defeat, the wooden rod bashed his head with great force.

This direct blow to his head instantly blurred his consciousness, and he was knocked out, falling into a baby-like sleep.

When the judge saw that Ling Quan was about to attack again, he quickly announced his victory.

(System message: You have observed an intense battle. Your Ice Crystal Armor has gained enlightenment, and its cultivation progress has automatically increased. Your current proficiency is at Mastery level 4.]

The moment the judge announced the end of the match, a system prompt appeared in Bai Ze’s mind as usual.

However, what Bai Ze did not understand was why the Ice Crystal Armor was improved when it was clearly a physical attack during the battle.

“Could it be that this rule was afraid that I would get beaten up, so it automatically increased its strength?” Bai Ze wondered.

“The Ice Crystal Armor is so gentle to me. I’m going to cry.”

Not long after the battle, Ling Quan returned to his seat in silence.

Bai Ze was sharp enough to notice that blood was oozing out from the area between his thumb and forefinger. He figured that he must have exerted a lot of effort before he could break the other party’s defense.

However, he still admired Ling Quan in his heart for having the courage to open up another path in the domain of magic.

Wasn’t this the spirit of a pioneer?

He turned around and saw that Teacher Fang Yu was healing Ling Quan. He thought that since Ling Quan was already struggling at this stage, he might very well lose to Lu Yi and the others in the next round.

The competition continued. The commentators were still passionately making commentaries while Bai Ze continued to watch.

Meanwhile, the underground betting platform’s group chat had erupted in an uproar. “Fuck that Jinmen administrator! Come out! Now that Bai Ze has obtained the qualifications to compete for the championship, you have to compensate me!”

“You can’t judge a book by its cover. I didn’t expect a third ring mage to reach this stage unexpectedly.”

“Did Jinmen receive dirty money? Why isn’t he saying anything now? Fortunately, I bet on Gu Yan. Although his odds are a little low, his chances of winning the championship are very high.”

“That girl called Ye Ningmei isn’t bad either. By the way, why can’t I see Jinmen in the group member list anymore?”

“Fuck, he’s probably long gone. He became a spy for a little money. I hate spies the most in

my life!”

“How much money did he receive exactly? He’s even canceled his account.”

The turmoil in the black market discussion group had yet to settle.

At this point, the battle in the arena had gradually reached a boiling point!

In the first two matches, Bai Ze once again understood more about Lu Yi’s spiritual movement technique. Even though his opponent was also a fourth ring mage, he still couldn’t withstand it and only held on for less than five minutes before leaving regretfully.

It was a pity that Bai Ze’s rules did not improve again after observing these battles.

It was 6:20 pm.

The spectators in the arena were still in high spirits.

The second round of battle had also reached its fourth battle.

After hearing the commentator call out his name, Bai Ze stood up and walked toward the battle arena briskly.

“Bai Ze, go for it! I believe you can win the championship!”

In the spectator seats behind him, Wu Feng waved the winning banner and cheered for Bai Ze as if he was on steroids.

Although there were fewer team members this time, their momentum was still not weak, and they caught the attention of the other spectators.

Seeing his buddy Wu Feng cheering for him like he was fighting for his own life, Bai Ze became emboldened.

“Don’t worry, the championship of the Nine Academies Joint Examination will definitely be mine!” Bai Ze thought.

He strode up to the arena and flashed a smile at the surrounding cameras.

“Now, walking onto the battle arena is the representative from Maplewood Uno High, Bai Ze. His current strength is at the early stage of the third ring.”

“Although his realm is not high, he has an excellent ice control technique. I wonder if he can continue to leverage his advantage and defeat his opponent in this peak-level competition?”

On the commentary platform, the female host was talking non-stop. At the same time, another contestant had arrived at the battle

arena.

His opponent was also a fourth ring mage. If Bai Ze remembered correctly, his name should be Shi Qiyun.

He was also the representative of an elite school and was well-versed in the extremely rare dark-type magic.

In Bai Ze’s view, he was a good opponent for himself.

“Let’s begin!”

Bai Ze said with a smile as he took out his Ethereal Magic Staff.

Shi Qiyun looked at Bai Ze with a profound gaze, then made a sliding gesture with his hand to his neck.

In the face of the enemy’s provocation, Bai Ze simply brushed it aside.

Many people made such arrogant gestures before a match but later turned out to be pathetic wimps.

In the arena, strength was the only truth. People like him usually had some mental problems.

nu!

At this moment, the judge below the stage saw that both of them were ready and immediately announced the start of the match.

Bai Ze held the Ethereal Magic Staff and stood still.

Since the opponent didn’t respect him, then he couldn’t blame Bai Ze for his unorthodox methods.
