"Hmm. I hope there won’t be another Magus from the Mage Guild of the Mainland. I will go into action myself in the next round. It’s also good to let Kino taste the bitterness of failure, which is a kind of training in itself."
In the field, Xuan Yue began to chant her magic spell in anger. Under the envelopnt of sacred holy light, the spell echoed with a slow and rhythmic voice, "Heavenly Light, gather in front of , create a powerful force, turn light into a blade, go, the blade filled with sacred light. - Light Blade." This is the sa fifth-level light magic that she previously used against Olivia. Xuan Yue slowly raised her Angel Wand in her hand. The light elents in the air concentrated on Xuan Yue quickly. The transparent gem on the Angel Wand radiated a trendous glow, like a small sun constantly flickering in the air. The Angel Wand was suddenly swung down, and a large piece of golden light was thrown from the gem on the top of the Wand. It instantly condensed into a gigantic blade and slashed towards Kino.
When the holy glow erupted from Xuan Yue, Kino hesitated in his heart. He no longer underestimated the teenager in front of him and began to chant his spell. "God of Fire, please grant power. As your most loyal servant, I am willing to be your follower forever. Scorching fire, flas of destruction, form into a soul-killing arrow, burst out." A dark purple fla burst out, surrounding Kino’s body. He drew a faint figure in the air with his magic wand, and a two-ter long purple fire arrow was ford. This is a sixth-level fire magic - Purple Fla Bursting Arrow, a single-target attack magic with trendous power.
Kino’s position in Tianjing’s Mage Guild is the sa as Olivia’s in the Mage Guild of the Mainland. He has an extrely rare fire property physique, and he has been guided by the Magus Larthas since he was a child. After the cruel training like hell, he has achieved what he is today, and has beco a Fire Magus at the age of twenty-seven. Larthas has poured countless efforts on him, and he only accepted such a disciple in his lifeti. He was very pleased with Kino’s current achievents. Within twenty years, Kino would beco another magus of the Tianjing Mage Guild, ready to inherit his mantle. Other than Larthas’ confidantes, nobody in Tianjing’s Mage Guild knew the existence of Kino, who was always kept hidden by Larthas. If it wasn’t for Olivia’s performance earlier, Pu Tian and Gorisong would not have sent him to the battlefield. However, the opponent Kino faced this ti was Xuan Yue, the youngest Magus of the Holy Church and who had received God’s baptism for an entire year.
The Purple Fla Bursting Arrow was shot straight towards Xuan Yue’s chest, and at this mont, Xuan Yue’s Light Blade has also chopped down. The reason why Xuan Yue didn’t use more powerful magic was because she wanted to see how strong this silly boy, who had humiliated her, actually was. Golden light and purple rays t in the air, causing a dazzling rain of gold and purple light to burst out as the blade tip t the arrowhead. Kino’s magic wand was also a treasure, even though it was not as good as the Angel Wand, it provided a considerable enhancent to fire magic. But after all, Xuan Yue was a holy Light Magician, and light magic has a certain advantage over fire magic. This instantly reduced the difference in magic level. After the dazzling light rain, Xuan Yue remained standing in the sa spot, while Kino retreated a step back, an astonished look on his face. He couldn’t understand why he was at a disadvantage when he clearly had the upper hand in terms of magic level, and the sharp attack of Purple Fla Bursting Arrow was so sharp. Actually, this is the difference in magic ability, there is an insurmountable gap between a Magus and a magician even though they are only one level apart. Kino had almost exerted his full force just now, but Xuan Yue only used a casual magic, and still maintained the upper hand due to the difference in their magic powers. Since she left the Holy Church this ti, Xuan Yue hasn’t really exerted her full power yet.
Xuan Yue snorted coldly, "Is this all you’ve got? Dare to show off to , aren’t you good at fire magic? Fine, I will use fire magic to defeat you, then you will admit your defeat willingly. With the blood of the Phoenix as a guide, awaken, the immortal Phoenix." With the chanting of the spell, a red glow surged from Xuan Yue’s chest, and a hot air flow surrounded her delicate body. The clear sound of a phoenix echoed through the valley, a red light sprang out from her chest and spun around her body. The red energy gradually took shape, turning into a fiery phoenix that surrounded Xuan Yue and rose above her head. The magic that can be used with Phoenix’s Blood and Dragon’s Blood is similar, even more powerful than magic of the sa system, but its form is very different. What Xuan Yue is using now is one of the most powerful fire magic that can be used with Phoenix’s Blood. Even though its power is far less than the transformation attack of Phoenix’s Blood’s real body - Phoenix Rebirth, its power is still close to that of the eighth level fire magic.
Gorisong, the experienced magician, exclaid in surprise, "This is the divine artifact, Phoenix’s Blood! Not good, Kino may not be able to withstand such an attack."
Upon seeing the fiery red phoenix, Kino was dumbstruck. He subconsciously retreated a few steps, forgetting to chant his spell. Although he knew so magicians were able to simultaneously use several types of magic, those magicians could never reach a high level due to their lack of specialty. However, the Fire Phoenix conjured by the boy before him had exceeded his comprehension. An anxious and angry voice rang out in his heart, "Foolish boy, that’s the power of a divine artifact. Defend with everything you’ve got!" This voice was as tornting to Kino as a demon’s call, causing him to instinctively chant his most powerful defensive spell. "Great God of Fire! As your most loyal servant, I beseech you to use your boundless divine power to protect . — Fire God’s Shield. " Under the spell, the purple fire around his body gradually shifted to a faint white, slowly coalescing in front of him. The faint white glow slowly crystallized into beautiful arcs revealing a colossal white shield that held no heat of fire magic, but was purely power within. This was the most potent level seven fire defense magic Kino could conjure at the mont.
Xuan Yue’s eyes blazed with a cold light as she pointed the Angel Wand and shouted: "Go, undying Phoenix’s fire!" The Fire Phoenix in the sky raised its proud head as the sound of its cry echoed. The Fire Phoenix spread its five-ter wings and hastily lunged toward Kino.
Just then, two white light beams floated from the crowd of Tian Jing’s Mage Guild behind Kino, two Fire God’s shields blocking him. The Fire Phoenix hastily hit the first Fire God’s shield. In an explosive roar, the first shield disappeared along with countless white light points. The Fire Phoenix shrunk a bit and continued to strike the second shield with the sa result, only this ti, the Fire God’s shield remained a little longer. The Phoenix’s fire finally collided with Kino’s Fire God’s shield. In a thunderous explosion, both the Fire Phoenix and the last Fire God’s shield disappeared together. Kino staggered, retreating seven or eight steps before falling on his rear, gasping for breath. His face turned deathly pale from either injury or shock induced by the Fire Phoenix.
As the red glow receded, the golden holy light rose again from Xuan Yue. "So even Tian Jing’s Mage Guild will resort to intervening," she said indifferently. Though the Fire Phoenix was summoned with the aid of the divine artifact’s boosting effect, it consud a lot of her magic power. Taking a deep breath, she fixed her gaze on the camp of Tian Jing Mage Guild.
An old, deep voice responded, "We may have lost the eighteenth match. However, Master Levi, our friend there seed to threaten Kino’s life. I trust you haven’t forgotten your words from before." Along with the voice, a large figure erged from the crowd of Tian Jing’s Mage Guild. The man did not wear a magician’s robe, hence he remained unnoticed, hidden amongst the crowd until now. His appearance instantly quickened Xuan Yue’s heartbeat. This man’s domineering deanor revealed his formidable strength.
Levi, the purple-robed alchemist, stepped up to Xuan Yue, glanced at the tall magician, and frowned, "I didn’t expect the nation’s Grand Mage, Larthas, to be here in person." Upon hearing this, all the mbers of the Mage Guild felt a chill run down their spines. It was beyond their imagination that such a high-ranking official of the Tian Jing Empire, Fire Magus Larthas, would actually be present. If even Chairman Kary were to co, he still wouldn’t be a match for Larthas. With only one contest left, no one could possibly contend with Larthas, who had reached the level of Magus. The three elders were pale, trembling slightly with the sa thought in their minds: are we really losing this?
The tall magician slowly lifted his head, pulling back the grey cloak to reveal his face. Despite the forty-year-old appearance, his rugged features were striking, his golden hair slightly curled, and the profound navy-blue eyes filled with commanding presence. He said to Alchemist Levi, "Master, you should still rember the words from earlier, do I need to repeat them?"
With a sigh, Levi lanted. He had no desire for conflicts between the Mage Guilds to escalate, less so to witness his favoured Continent Mage Guild lose. But once words were spoken, they couldn’t be withdrawn. He turned to face Xuan Yue and exclaid, "Brother, in this eighteenth trial, my judgnt for you is..."
"Wait." Xuan Yue stopped Levi before he could utter the word ’defeat’, facing the champion attack-oriented magus, Larthas, who was known to be the best on the continent, feeling no fear. In a sonorous voice she exclaid, "Master Levi, I never intended to slay Kino before. You can’t declare a failure."
Larthas wrinkled his brows, stating, "For a magician, sophistry is certainly not a comndable virtue, wouldn’t you agree, priestess from the Holy Church?"
Having her identity guessed by the opposition was sothing Xuan Yue had long anticipated. She calmly responded, "I’m not speaking sophistry, Magus Larthas. I believe everyone present saw my final attack. The dual shields of Fire God were cast by you, weren’t they? If so, you certainly have a clear understanding of my capabilities." With that, she pulled Phoenix’s Blood from her collar. The appearance of this divine artifact sparked desire in Larthas’ eyes. As a fire mage, his longing for Fire Artifacts definitely exceeded that of others. Seeing his long-held dream materializing before him, who wouldn’t be moved? He chuckled, pointing at Xuan Yue, "Right, I do realize you have the strength of a magus. But what has that got to prove? Did you not wish to push Kino to the brink of death?"
Xuan Yue smiled faintly, "Of course not. Why would I wish to push him to such a state? We have no deep-running grudge against each other. Even if you hadn’t defended him with the Fire God’s shield, after his defenses had been shattered by , I still would have promptly recalled the energy of the Fire Phoenix. Since you acknowledge that I possess the strength of a Magus, you can’t dispute my magic level to recall the energy, can you?"
At first, Larthas seed stunned, but soon broke into a rage, "You, you’re just using pure sophistry!"
Xuan Yue scoffed, "What you call sophistry, I call the truth. Master Levi, you also witnessed the situation just now. I can assure you that I have the ability to recall the energy of my attack at any ti. If you don’t believe , I can demonstrate it for you another ti."
Larthas grunted in anger, "There’s no need for that; we concede this round. I am not a sore loser. Master Levi, please announce the start of the final competition. I will represent the Tian Jing Mage Guild."
Upon hearing that, Xuan Yue quietly let out a sigh of relief. Phoenix’s Blood, though a divine artifact, posed so difficulty for her to wield again with precision. Having accomplished her mission, she felt no need to stay any longer. The old man seed formidable and she was not entirely sure she could beat him. With these thoughts in mind, she drifted back to join the ranks of the Continent Mage Guild.
Levi heaved a sigh and announced, "In the eighteenth competition, the Continent Mage Guild is victorious. The nineteenth competition will begin in one minute. Please, both parties, prepare."
As Xuan Yue returned to the camp of her guild, she ca across a surprisingly somber atmosphere. All the mages including Ah Dai were silent, their brows furrowed, seemingly troubled.
"What happened here? Didn’t I just win for us? Why aren’t you all glad?"
With a look of admiration, Fen Zhi sighed, "Had we known your magic level to be of a Magus, had we known Larthas was also here, we would have never let you take part, even in that last match. As it stands, we’re at a tie with the Tian Jing Mage Guild. Now, it all cos down to this final round. But they have Larthas, known as the top attack magician on the continent. We have no one who can match him. We’ve already lost, it’s clear. Sigh, so close to success! Are we really going to fall at the hands of these violators of true magic teaching?"
Xuan Yue knit her brows in thought, turning to Ah Dai. She was well aware that if Ah Dai were to release his full power, he had the capability to surpass her. Smiling, she assured, "Don’t worry, my elder brother is here! Brother, looks like you’ll have to perform this ti."
Watching Ah Dai, Fen Zhi sighed, "We really have no better option but to trouble Elder Ah Dai. However, note that this is a contention between two Mage Guilds, martial arts cannot be used!"
Caught off guard, Xuan Yue turned to Ah Dai, whose face turned solemn, "Brother, what...?"
With a sigh, Ah Dai reached for Dragon’s Blood around his neck, "I can only try." Using the light magic derived from Dragon’s Blood, he wondered if he could hold his own against Larthas. Being the kind of person who viewed a favor, however small, as a great debt, Ah Dai felt compelled to step forward. Ever since he had left Stone Pond Town to venture the continent, Continent Mage Guild had always extended its help. Now, in the face of dire circumstances, how could he rely stand and watch? If the Continent Mage Guild were expelled from Andis City, it would unquestionably mark their gradual downfall.
Xuan Yue, who had originally been relaxed, suddenly beca tense. Seeing Larthas cast two shields of the God of Fire simultaneously in such a short amount of ti, she could only describe his magic abilities as unfathomable. Without the usage of martial arts, she feared Ah Dai would struggle against him. Xuan Yue removed the Ring of Guardian from her finger, cast a spell, and put it on Ah Dai’s hand, saying softly, "Big brother, do your best. If you can’t hold on, don’t force yourself. That old guy’s attacks will surely be powerful. Be careful. Make good use of these divine artifacts on your body!"
Feeling the gentleness and chillness of Xuan Yue’s fingertips, Ah Dai’s heart ward, and a surging fighting spirit gradually rose. Self-assured light filled his eyes, and he nodded firmly.
Suddenly, a light shone in Xuan Yue’s eyes, as if sothing had just occurred to her.
Ah Dai heard Xuan Yue’s voice in his mind, "Big brother, there might be a way out. Your True Qi and light magic are incredibly similar. If you only use them for defense, that old man might not notice. As long as you can withstand his round of attacks, and then summon Sheng Xie for assistance, you may have a high chance of victory."
Ah Dai was slightly startled, murmuring in a transmission voice: "But that’s against the rules!"
Xuan Yue smiled, "As long as no one else knows, it doesn’t violate the rules. It’s a pity that the absolute defense of the Ring of Guardian hasn’t recovered, otherwise, we’d have more certainty. Big brother, you must not hold back at the crucial mont. The opponent has a high skill, once you fall into a disadvantage, it’s hard to fight back."
Ah Dai smiled bitterly, "How could I hold back? I wouldn’t dare not to fight with all my strength against such a strong opponent."
At that mont, Levi, in the field, looked at the gradually darkening sky and said loudly: "Alright, the final competition of the two sides will start now. Please, competitors, get on the court."
Xuan Yue firmly squeezed Ah Dai’s hand, giving him an encouraging look. Ah Dai took a deep breath, looked at the mbers of the Mage Guild of the continent, and resolutely walked out of his team.
When Larthas saw Ah Dai approaching him, he was stunned for a mont. He had naturally seen how Ah Dai used his fighting spirit to break Goris’ attack before, but the powerful strength Ah Dai had displayed made him sowhat apprehensive. He snorted and said, "This is a matter between our two guilds. Outsiders can’t get involved."
After years of experience, Ah Dai was no longer the naive boy who had just debuted. Although he was still a bit slower than the average person, he was still capable of handling this situation. He smiled faintly and said, "I am not an outsider, I am a mber of the Magician’s Guild of the Continent. Ah Dai, the elder of the Mage Guild of the Continent, would like to learn from you." While speaking, he took out his magician’s card from his chest and threw it to Larthas. The card, under the operation of the True Qi, floated slowly towards Larthas. When it was about a foot away from him, it naturally fell.
Larthas was shocked, he took the card, feeling the familiar energy, exclaiming, "What? You’re an elder from the Mage Guild of the Continent? This, this isn’t possible." He was very familiar with the elders of the Mage Guild of the Continent, and knew the na of every one of them. He had never heard of Ah Dai’s existence, which slightly shook his confidence.
Ah Dai stood in front of Larthas, took his magician’s card back from his stunned hand, and gave it to Levi, saying, "Master, please confirm my identity. I was officially appointed as an elder of the guild by Chairman Kari three years ago."
Levi took the card, uttered a spell, and a red light shone. Ah Dai’s magician’s card flickered with dazzling golden light, and a golden hexagram slowly erged from the center of the card. Because the sky had already darkened, the magicians on both sides with superior vision could clearly see the characters ’Ah Dai’ in the center of the hexagram. The previously high spirited Tian Jing Mage Guild suddenly fell silent.
Levi nodded his head, returned the card to Ah Dai and said, "Yes, this is indeed an elder-level card. You are entitled to represent the Mage Guild of the continent in the battle. However, as the referee invited by both sides, I need to remind you that you are not allowed to use martial arts in the upcoming competition. It will be a contest of magic only. If I find out you used martial arts, you will be judged as lost."
Ah Dai nodded solemnly and said, "Rest assured, I understand." After speaking, he put the card back into his chest, floated backward, and landed in front of his team, staring at Larthas.
Having experienced countless grand scenes, Larthas was taken aback, but by this mont he had gradually cald down. He snorted coldly, saying, "Alright then, let’s see how profound your mastery in magic is, martial arts expert."
Levi looked deeply at Ah Dai and declared solemnly, "Alright, I announce that the final competition between the Continental Mage Guild and Tian Jing Mage Guild now begins, with both sides aiming for the knock out." Having said that, he slowly retreated to the side of the Continental Mage Guild.
A searing hot stream erged from Larthas, lighting up a red glow in the darkness of the Billu Canyon. The glow constantly shifted, the color changing from red to blue, and then solidified to a deep purple. The deep purple glow transford into a white light, and finally, returned to the fiery red color. Larthas stood there as if reborn from the red flas, his self-developed body-protecting magic, any energy or thing, as long as the intensity of the attack did not exceed the maximum range that this magic could withstand, once it entered this powerful fire barrier, would be imdiately burned into ashes. This type of fla is referred to as the Fla of Destruction by the fire mages and its heat is more than three tis that of the purple fla. It is Larthas’s unique skill, which made him famous.
The watching mages behind Ah Dai were taken aback. Xuan Yue, who grew up in the Holy Church and had seen a wide variety of things, deeply recognized that Larthas’s fire magic had reached the highest realm of returning to its original simple form, indicating that his strength is more than just that of a typical magus.
Ah Dai, who stood across Larthas in the field, felt this the most. He could clearly feel Larthas’s energy lock on himself as the waves of burning undertow surged and repeatedly struck him. Ah Dai understood that he could not resist with his martial arts right now. Rembering what Xuan Yue had said to him previously, he started chanting, "Invoke the blood of the Divine Dragon, defend the dignity, oh Divine Dragon! Cover my body."
A brilliant blue glow suddenly shone brightly, centered at Ah Dai’s chest, spreading out in a halo. Due to the enhancent in spiritual power, Ah Dai could clearly feel a strong energy ebbing under his control. The blue halo gradually intensified. The clear roar of the dragon resounded, the grand amplitude of sound shaking everyone’s trembling hearts. The blue energy gradually ford the shape of a giant dragon revolving around Ah Dai, gradually becoming clearer. In the vagueness, Ah Dai seed to sense that this Divine Dragon bore a resemblance to Sheng Xie. The massive sacred aura kept flooding his body and mind. Ah Dai shouted loudly, the blue glow instantly intensified. The giant blue dragon was clearly visible, slowly spinning around him. The enormous dragon head opened its mouth with Ah Dai’s shout, and Ah Dai’s montum suddenly overwheld Larthas. Ah Dai’s grasp of the Divine Dragon’s Blood’s strongest defense, Divine Dragon Body Cover, had beco much more proficient.
In the field, the two forces, red and blue spectral energies continuously shone, each persistently gathering their montum.
A serious expression appeared in Larthas’s eyes. With his experience, he naturally realized that this was the montum caused by a powerful divine artifact, but controlling divine artifacts required a massive amount of spiritual power. It could be seen that the young martial arts expert in front of him might not be weak in magic power.
Larthas scoffed, his right hand making a slice through empty air, a red spatial rift appeared and a red fireball appeared, floating out and falling into Larthas’s hands. It wasn’t magic, it was a crystal-like object, a spherical crystal-like object that was constantly flashing with a reddish glow. With its appearance, the temperature in the canyon imdiately rose a few degrees. The magicians on both sides couldn’t help but retreat tens of ters away, each using their own protective magic against the invasion of the heatwaves.
A flash of sothing different shone in Xuan Yue’s eyes as she looked at the crystal in Larthas’s hand, continuously recalling the Holy Church’s scriptures she had read in the past. Suddenly, she seed to have realized sothing, her beautiful eyes widened in shock, she blurted out, "Interdiate Fire Sect Artifact—Fire Spirit Pearl." Her heart trembled slightly. Originally, she thought that Ah Dai, with the Divine Dragon’s Blood, Ring of Guardian, and Wish of Goris, these three artifacts, coupled with powerful spiritual power, might not necessarily lose to Larthas without using martial arts. However, the appearance of the Fire Spirit Pearl set her heart wavering again. She was all too aware of this artifact. As an artifact of the sa rank as the Phoenix Blood before its upgrade, it is not weaker in enhancing fire magic than the Phoenix Blood, even stronger than the Phoenix’s Blood, except that it doesn’t possess the sacred aura of the Phoenix’s Blood. What is the most terrifying is its indestructible physical attack, Xuan Yue knew that with Larthas’s cultivation, he could definitely unleash the strongest attack of the Fire Spirit Pearl with spiritual power.
Ah Dai heard Xuan Yue’s cry of alarm, his heart tightened, he was sowhat at a loss, after all, he rarely purely relied on magic to fight against enemies, this pure magic duel made him a little uncomfortable.
The complexion on Larthas’s face remained calm, his right hand slowly raised, holding the Fire Spirit Pearl. With his sowhat deep and hoarse voice, he chanted, "Great fire elents! Please grant your endless power of fire, coalesce." With the chanting of the spell, the Fire Spirit Pearl gradually lit up, the red glow flourished, the Fire Spirit Pearl parted from Larthas’s palm, suspended in front of his chest, a rising fla drifted out, coalescing into a gigantic fire dragon, circling his body just like the blue divine dragon that protected Ah Dai.
Ah Dai was taken aback. Although the first magic he learned was fire magic, he had never seen such an advanced fire dragon. Taking a deep breath, he chanted, "With the power of the Divine Dragon’s Blood as the guide, power of light! Form a solid barrier, to resist the invasion of evil." The Divine Dragon’s Blood spilled out a circle of blue light, the glow gradually changed, turning from blue to white, a protective barrier appeared in front of him.
Larthas’s face remained calm, extending his right index finger, pointing to the Fire Spirit Pearl in front of him, the firelight flashed, the giant fire dragon soared, under his control of spiritual power, it pounced at Ah Dai.
Xuan Yue slightly furrowed her brows, not because Larthas’s magic was too strong, but because it was too weak. This was just a fifth level Fire Dragon Attack Magic of the fire system, its power far less than Gorisong’s Purple Fla Soaring Dragon. He was clearly a Magus, why would he use such a minor magic? Was he looking down on Ah Dai? As a powerful magician, one should not underestimate their opponent.
