The nurous wind blades surrounding Eloise made Daniel worry for Rose.
Despite her intense training, Rose's strength had beco incomparable to before.
However, she was still his daughter, and Daniel forced himself to suppress the impulse to intervene directly.
He wanted to see how Rose would handle the situation.
Rose had been in the chosen place for a whole month, and she had already grasped a part of the destructive essence of lightning.
Daniel needed to understand the extent of her mastery.
This enemy would serve as a test for Rose.
Daniel's mind power was always ready to rescue her in case she faced any danger.
After all, this was just a secret realm.
While Rose needed to grow, Daniel was there to support her.
He then observed the calm on Rose's face as she prepared herself.
Mana surged rapidly within her.
The insights she gained from the thunder pool began to manifest.
As golden arcs of electricity erged around her, Daniel's previously tense heart gradually relaxed.
Those golden arcs represented Rose's understanding, imperceptible to others but sensed by Daniel, who recognized the destructive aura contained within.
When Rose could grasp and incorporate these insights into her practice, there could only be one outco: the girl nad Eloise was no match for her.
Rose had already surpassed her. In the realm of magic, Eloise simply couldn't compete.
The dense wind blades shot towards Rose, even creating a temporary vacuum in the air.
But Rose didn't dodge; she charged straight into the wind blades.
Daniel had no concerns at all because the outco was already obvious.
Those thunderbolts were far from ordinary.
The destruction they contained spoke for itself!
The wind blades inflicted no harm on Rose, seemingly vanishing into thin air.
Both Nina, who was watching from the sidelines, and Eloise, who had cast the magic, were stunned.
Rose maintained her composure, for she knew this was destined to happen.
Now, it was ti to eliminate her opponent.
As her massive sword struck for the first ti, Eloise skillfully dodged with magic.
Rose showed no disappointnt or impatience; instead, she used her battle intelligence to quickly adjust her force.
She altered the trajectory of her sword, using a technique similar to pole vaulting, leveraging the tip of the sword against the ground.
This allowed Rose to leap into the air for a second strike.
Perhaps even Eloise herself didn't expect Rose to follow up so quickly—so fast that she couldn't even run away or cast any magic.
During the second strike, Rose seed to enter a ditative state, a mont every mage dreams of—ditating in the midst of battle.
Rose recalled her countless attempts and practices at the edge of the thunder pool.
In that mont, a bolt of lightning crashed from above, striking beside her.
Accompanied by the golden lightning, Rose brought her sword down.
At that mont, Eloise was utterly incapable of resistance.
Daniel watched closely. Rose's sword strike appeared slow, as she was not very close to Eloise before swinging it.
Even if it fell from the sky, it would take ti.
Any ordinary mage skilled in wind magic could react in ti, casting a levitation spell and following with an acceleration spell to escape easily.
Being a genius, Eloise could certainly do sothing similar.
But at that mont, she couldn't.
Her mana felt entirely locked down, rendering her unable to move.
Even her body was immobilized.
Before Rose's sword fell, the lightning had completely locked onto Eloise.
It was lightning infused with a destructive essence.
Eloise could offer no resistance.
In truth, even before Rose's sword struck, Eloise was already defeated.
Rose's sword was rely the final blow, shattering Eloise's form.
After the sword fell, Eloise vanished—completely, utterly erased from this world.
Not even a trace remained.
Rose showed no sign of emotion, as if she had just done sothing trivial.
She sheathed her giant sword and walked step by step toward Nina's direction.
Rose had succeeded—more than Daniel had imagined.
It was as if he had enrolled Rose in an interest training program, expecting her to simply acquire a hobby, but instead, she returned with a grand prize.
At that mont, Daniel felt a mix of emotions: astonishnt at Rose's talent and concern for her well-being.
After all, she wielded a force of destruction.
Even after eliminating Eloise, that power still lingered in the area.
Within that space, no elents existed.
Any mage stepping into that area would instinctively feel revulsion.
Of course, this phenonon wouldn't last long; it would soon dissipate.
There was no need to worry excessively.
After Rose rested, Daniel used his mind power to check her condition.
Thankfully, there were no hidden dangers.
It seed that Rose had fully mastered and integrated this power into her ultimate move.
Once he confird this, Daniel finally breathed a sigh of relief.
With the last tier-silver peak combatant from House Windwhisper eliminated by Rose, what remained were just minor threats.
They would pose no significant risk.
Daniel even used his mind power to subtly guide the remaining mbers of both families.
It was likely they would soon "accidentally encounter" the students from Crossbridge Academy, and the outco was predictable.
In short, Daniel no longer needed to worry about the secret realm's events.
The final result would ultimately reflect who among the academy's mbers would erge victorious.
There was no way the two families would co out on top.
Oh, the two families would likely be nearly extinct soon. That was no concern.
During the three days the secret realm was open, the three major forces would rest at temporary accommodations outside, showcasing their emphasis on the younger generation entering the secret realm.
Daniel returned to the temporary residence, first shedding the cumberso and ornate clothing.
Once he changed into his everyday attire, he felt a wave of relief wash over him.
He reflected that such public appearances were not suited for him.
Tomorrow, he would let Rowan attend in his stead and evaluate the situation on the final day.
Just as he thought of this, Daniel saw Rowan walk in.
"Headmaster, I've discovered sothing!" Rowan's expression was serious, a cloud of concern hanging over him.
"It might be extrely unfavorable for Crossbridge Academy," he added.
Hearing Rowan's words, Daniel beca serious as well and asked, "What did you find?"
"House Lunastone and House Windwhisper seem to be acting suspiciously! According to my sources, they've been secretly selling off their family assets over the past few months."
Rowan whispered, "For such families, their assets are everything, and it's generally impossible to move them unless…"
"Unless the family is at a critical juncture!" Daniel interrupted.
For the two families, which had long been among the three major forces in Riverside City, what could constitute a critical mont?
After much contemplation, Rowan realized there was only one possibility: the mont when the three forces of Riverside City would be reduced to two!
