The Sorcery Academy: I am Invincible After Getting Treasure Chests Everyday - Chapter 20

Chapter 20: The Elements of Ice and Fire

This was a theory that was written in textbooks. No one could break it easily.

But to Linley, the fundamental theories in this world were completely useless to him.

This was because he did not rely on the magical elements of this world to use magic. He relied on the system.

As long as the system said that he would be able to learn a particular magic spell, it meant that he would definitely be able to learn it. As long as the system said that he could use a form of magic, no matter where he was, even if the place didn’t have any magical elements, the system would help Linley Bart use that form of magic.

This was the superpower of the system!

It could overwrite everything in this world, ignoring the logic and laws in place.

In that instant, Linley Bart used the Flaming Storm.

The fire elements naturally formed around him, and the temperature also suddenly increased. He seemed to become a fire hero unaffected in the snow world.

The ball of flames quickly became a storm.

If the World Of Ice and Snow was described as the sky falling onto the academy, making the surroundings extremely cold.

Then the Flaming Storm would be as if raging flames spewing out from the ground, devouring everything in its way like an explosion of flames.

These were two very different elemental abilities, one fire, and one ice.

The flames underground collided with the ice in the sky.

Due to the collision of water and fire on the magic arena, the thick white fog dispersed.

The audience below the arena was stunned.

This was a direct collision between ice and fire, a clash between two different magical powers. Nowadays, sorcerers rarely use large-scale magic when dueling with each other.

They all used simple and fast combat magic. After all, the enemy only consisted of a single person. There was no need for large-scale magic.

The World Of Ice and Snow and Flaming Storm were spells meant for the battlefield.

Once these spells were used, they could destroy thousands of soldiers and horses from the opponent’s army.

This was a rare scene in an ordinary magic showdown. Powerful area-of-effect magic clashing against each other was something that could only happen in a battle between great mages.

Some of the teachers sitting in the spectator stands quietly left. They came to the side of the competition stage and reinforced the magic barrier to prevent the magic powers from leaking out and affecting others.

Ice and fire had always been the two most aggressive and powerful magical elements since ancient times.

The force of the two spells colliding stunned all the spectators.

A merciless snow storm came from the sky while raging flames bloomed from the ground.

Even the other top ten students from the academy felt that they were unable to cast such powerful magic.

Under such powerful magic pressure, the people inside were under even greater magic pressure.

As the spells were large-scale magic spells, apart from attacking the enemy, it would also affect oneself. Therefore, other than on the battlefield, very few people would use large-scale magic in a competition to avoid accidentally injuring themselves.

If it was just one person using area-of-effect magic, it was still within one’s control range.

However, if two people were to use area-of-effect large-scale magic spells at the same time, it would be difficult for them to control their magical elements and spell accurately and precisely with the constant clashing between the two very different magical elements.

It was also very easy to lose control of the magic power and the consequences of losing control of magic power were very terrifying.

This was because magic itself was extremely unstable.

The essence of sorcery was to use the instability of the magical elements to drive, control and gather magical elements with spiritual affinity to cast a spell.

Many factors could affect a successful use of a spell.

Throughout the past thousands of years, countless talented sorcerers had been training and inheriting various knowledge about magic, allowing for there to be an established magic system in place now.

These systems and theories minimized the risk of using magic.

This was also why magic could become widespread and be taught to everyone.

This was because generations of magic geniuses had already thoroughly studied the principles and theories of magic and further refined them.

Using the experiences from the past generations of geniuses and the learning experiences from failed experimentation, people were then able to craft and refine magic spells to be used and taught.

However, magic would still be affected in many ways, even if countless people had used it successfully before.

In a certain person, it might not be successful, and it was hard to find the reason.

This was also the mystery and uncertainty of magic.

In this world, no one could use two identical spells, just like no one could find two completely different leaves.

This was the situation in the competition arena.

Even though such large-scale magic was very common on the battlefield.

However, that was a battlefield after all. There was a vast space. No one had to consider the stability of magic as long as magic could be cast.

Regardless of whether it was an explosion or not, as long as it killed the enemy, it would be considered a successful spell.

Therefore, no one had ever delved into what would happen when the two elements collided in a small area.

The current situation was very unstable.

Some teachers who were more sensitive to magical elements had noticed.

On the dueling platform of the magic competition, the elements of ice and fire clashed fiercely. These two elements had become extremely unstable.

Stability meant that one could control the magical elements however they wanted, to the effect they desired.

Instability meant failure. Failure would have many effects, but more than likely, there would be the following result.

An explosion.

The explosion of a spell did not signify success. An explosion is caused due to the dislocation and instability of the arrangement of magical elements.

No one could be sure of the terrifying damage caused by the explosion.

Therefore, some teachers immediately came to the dueling arena and started to use magic to strengthen the barrier in an attempt to prevent the explosion from affecting the audience.

Also, if anything happened on stage, they would step up to stop it.
