Full-Time Mage: Starting from Obtaining the Mysterious Ancient Tree

Chapter 252 Showdown with Ai Jiangtu

Ai Jiangtu gazed at Mu Ningxue on the stage. This year's National Government team was truly unpredictable. This feeling of being spurred on was a long-lost thrill for Ai Jiangtu, a soldier.

"Goddess Mu's fighting power is even more terrifying than before!" Zhao Manyan's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

"Yes, she has grown a lot." Songhe's face showed approval.

"It seems that the decision we made back then was the right one," Feng Li said, somewhat unexpectedly.

Everyone knows that Mu Ningxue is very strong after breaking through to a higher level, possessing the rudimentary form of the Ice Domain and the Ice Crystal Bow.

Judging from the current situation, Mu Ningxue's wind elemental power alone is so formidable. With her strength significantly increased, Mu Ningxue's combat power should be second only to Fang Yu. If she were to fight against Ai Jiangtu and Mo Fan, the outcome would be hard to predict.

Mu Tingying, watching from the sidelines, looked extremely grim. The more dazzling the enemy appeared, the angrier she became, gritting her teeth in anger.

"Don't keep such a long face. You look better when you smile. Cheer up," Fang Yu said to Mu Ningxue as she walked over.

"This is just an internal team battle, it's far from enough, and Mo Fan didn't use his full strength, he held back," Mu Ningxue said.

"We have to take it slow. With the strength you've shown, you're already qualified to be a full member," Fang Yu said seriously, pinching Mu Ningxue's cheek to make her smile that looked more like a grimace.

Mu Ningxue slapped Fang Yu's hands away and said shyly, "There are so many people!"

At that moment, the untimely voice of the Grand Master Feng Li rang out: "Next match, Fang Yu, Ai Jiangtu."

Upon hearing the sound, Ai Jiangtu looked at Fang Yu, his eyes filled with fighting spirit. He knew Fang Yu was extremely strong, and although he knew it was a losing situation, he still wanted to give it a try...

Fang Yu and the other person simultaneously 'teleported' to the stage and stood facing each other.

"Are all space magic users this ethereal?" Zhao Manyan complained, then shook his head and sighed, thinking about his own magic user.

……

In the arena, Ai Jiangtu looked at Fang Yu and said, "Let me see how big the gap is between us."

“Okay, as you wish,” Fang Yu said, standing opposite him.

“Begin!” Feng Li said.

"Buzz~~~~~~~"

Suddenly, an incredibly terrifying energy surged from Ai Jiangtu's body.

With a clench of his hands, an invisible spatial energy instantly lifted the stones around the arena from the ground. The stones gradually closed together, coalescing into a stone sphere that hurtled towards Fang Yu.

"Mind control!"

Fang Yu's body flashed with silver light. Facing the flying stone ball, his gaze was stern. The stone ball came with a whistling wind, but when it was less than a meter away from Fang Yu, it trembled violently and suddenly stopped in mid-air, unable to move forward even a little bit!
"go with!"

Fang Yu's pupils flashed with silver light, locking onto the stone sphere. As his gaze gradually focused on Ai Jiangtu, the stone sphere burst through the air, streaking with silver light, and once again hurtled towards Ai Jiangtu.

"Boom!!!" Something that was hard to tell whether it was a star map or a star track flashed by under Ai Jiangtu's feet. Then, the stone ball shattered as if it had been hit by a heavy hammer and fell to the ground!
Fang Yu didn't want to give Ai Jiangtu a chance to breathe. With a 'thud,' Fang Yu bent his feet and stepped on the air shield formed by 'mind control,' and stepped forward like a streak of light. He raised his right fist, which was wrapped in his mind, and like a giant hammer, he slammed it towards Ai Jiangtu.

"Teleportation!"

Ai Jiangtu described the spatial constellation's speed as incredibly fast, enveloping him in silver light and instantly rushing out of Fang Yu's attack range.

With a loud 'boom,' the noise made everyone's eyes pop out, because Fang Yu punched the ground where Ai Jiangtu had been standing. The floor shattered, rocks flew everywhere, cement flew, and a cloud of dust filled the air.

The stands were completely silent...

"Huh? This?" Zhao Manyan and Jiang Yu's mouths could fit a goose egg. That's an exaggeration, especially considering this is a physically weak human mage.

Mo Fan was much calmer, because he had seen a similar move on Kasuo before, where petrification power enveloped the body, giving it a demonic appearance. He had also discussed the use of spatial magic with Fang Yu.

"Mind control!"

Ai Jiangtu cast spatial magic again, silver light flashed, and a silver rhombus area appeared around Fang Yu, containing extremely strong gravity suppression, covering Fang Yu.

“This can’t hold me back, ‘Fierce Fist’!” Fang Yu punched his own feet.

The earth suddenly cracked open, and molten lava surged forth wildly. At first, there were nine pillars of lava, but gradually more pillars of fire connected the nine grids, turning them into an incredibly massive volcano that was roaring wildly!

"Whizzing!!!"

As the pillar of fire erupted, space shattered instantly. Just as the entire crater was raging, Ai Jiangtu had already retreated ten meters away...

"Ghost punishment!"

Seeing that the pillar of fire had extinguished, Ai Jiangtu unleashed a high-level curse spell, and the malevolent shadow of a demon appeared behind Fang Yu. A chill immediately ran through Fang Yu's body; the cursed demon behind him was about to tear his soul apart!
"The Evil Spider's Trap!"

Then, Ai Jiangtu continued to unleash curse magic. Crimson spider silk stretched densely, covering an area of ​​tens of meters. The entire area was shrouded in this curse silk, and the stones could be seen rapidly decaying. The power of decay also affected Fang Yu.

"Ring ring ring~~~~~"

'Little Flame Princess, possess me.' Still within the contract space, Little Flame Princess, like a little bird clinging to someone, nestled into Fang Yu's soul chest.

Soon, the Nine Heavens Soul Fire and the Heaven and Earth Tribulation Flame overflowed from Fang Yu's skin. At first, only some flames emerged from Fang Yu's body, followed by surging and intense flames that burned everything around them. Even though the outside was wrapped in the Evil Spider Silk and the Cursed Ghost, it still could not stop the surging and breaking of the dam of flames.

Fang Yu, at the very center, was completely enveloped in the blazing flames of the two-colored soul fire.

Ai Jiangtu let out a muffled cry, clutching his head. The curse magic had been broken, and his soul had suffered a backlash, but his years of military service still allowed him to grit his teeth and endure it.

The flames on Fang Yu's body completely burned away the surrounding obstacles, and instantly a powerful burst of fire energy surged up, transforming into countless incomparably bright, fiery red feathers...

Feathers formed two wings, and the flames they spewed out propelled Fang Yu into the sky. The powerful fiery wings tore through the air, and Fang Yu swung his right fist, creating a fire dragon. He then swung his left fist again, and the fire dragon surged out once more, smashing fiercely into Ai Jiangtu!
Ai Jiangtu originally intended to retreat, but found that the fire dragon had already enveloped the dueling arena, so he used both hands to condense layers of 'qi shields' to intercept it.
