As for Wood's proposal, Budigandi didn't hesitate at all. He knew his own strength was inferior to Wood's, so he readily accepted the offer.

A dense, purplish-black magical power surged forth from Badigandi, its immense power even forming a tangible pillar that shot directly into the sky.

As for Wood on the other side, his body was also beginning to erupt with blue, materialized magic power. Under the illumination of the magic power, the armor of the 'Winter Knight' shone even brighter.

As two enormous pillars of magic shot into the sky, the entire Lanoa Magic Academy, and even the surrounding area, began to shake violently.

Although no action has been taken yet, everyone watching can clearly feel the extremely strong magical pressure in the air, as well as the overwhelming sense of oppression that is almost suffocating.

"ah------!"

"drink------!"

Almost simultaneously, Wood and Buddy Gundy, who were originally in two different places, moved at the same time. With another huge thud from the ground, the ground beneath their feet was kicked into two enormous craters almost at the same time.

The powerful counter-kick generated tremendous force, propelling Wood and Budigandi forward instantly and sending them hurtling towards each other!

Badigandi unleashed six arms and attacked a point in front of him. Powerful dark purple magic gathered at this moment, transforming into a giant black lion.

"Martial Skill - Ultimate Technique: Six-Piercing Black Lion!"

On the other side, Wood also rushed out at the same moment, and without any fancy moves, he clenched his right fist and threw it out.

He didn't know any of the martial arts techniques in this world, but his ordinary straight punch was now imbued with multiple powers by Wood.

The Six Styles Iron Body, the Ryuo-level Armament Haki, the Conqueror's Haki Entanglement, and finally, the armor "Winter Knight" infused with magic power.

Under the combined force, Wood's straight punch, seemingly ordinary, actually carried a ton of weight, leaving behind a series of whistling sounds in the air and easily shattering the space in front of him.

After hearing the awesome name of Badi Gundy's move, Wood realized that they had reached the final stage of the beam clash.

They've already shouted out such awesome move names; if I were to shout "Serious Punch" like some bald guy, wouldn't that be a bit too low-class?

Putting aside the question of whether it's classy or not, what if Badigandi feels that he hasn't taken him seriously and hasn't taken this final battle seriously?

So after a few short seconds, Wood, who was originally sprinting in a straight line, began to have extremely gorgeous special effects appear on his body.

As the blue magic surged forward, it gradually transformed into a roaring abyssal dragon, and Wood, as if responding to Badigandi, shouted out the name of the move he had just been thinking about for a few seconds.

"Martial Skill - Ultimate Technique: Dragon's Radiance!"

What? You're saying Wood has never used this move before, and you've never even heard of this martial art? Wood can only say that in his own pirate world, giving one's moves a sharp name is a basic courtesy of a swordsman.

Don't worry about why the same move is used again or why it has a different name. These are not the important things. The important thing is that your move is powerful enough and the name is imposing enough.

Don't say that the "world's greatest swordsman" never shouts out the name of his moves when he draws his sword. Maybe he has already shouted it out in his mind, but we just didn't hear it?

Chapter 533 The Defeat of the Demon King

In short, at the moment the soaring blue dragon collided with the running black lion, the dragon god Orsteed and Rudy attacked almost simultaneously.

Although they weren't the ones fighting, after the experience from the previous wave, both Auersted and Rudy were quite clear that if they didn't take any defensive measures, apart from Alice and a few others, the rest of the extras would probably all be eliminated.

"boom------!"

The moment the two energy creatures, each nearly a hundred meters in size, collided, the entire earth began to shake violently, and the shaking this time far exceeded any previous one!

Large swathes of ground resembled an overbaked cake, first deforming and bulging under immense pressure, then rapidly cracking and collapsing.

The clash between blue and black energies caused the arena to split in two at the moment of impact, as if a canvas had been divided in two, with one side entirely dominated by blue and the other by pure black.

To put it bluntly, it was just a clash of fists, but the energy storm that formed when Wood and Badigandi's fists collided was comparable to a real meteorite falling straight down!

The storm, visible to the naked eye, not only easily lifted the entire surface of the earth, but the powerful shockwave also created spiderweb-like cracks in the surrounding space.

As the ring-shaped shockwaves rippled outwards, the extras who had been watching from the sidelines belatedly realized that their current situation seemed quite dangerous.

Observing a battle and witnessing the danger to one's life was something they wouldn't have believed in the past. However, their previous experiences forced them to believe that even those who weren't actively involved in a battle, merely watching from the sidelines, risked their lives.

Leaving aside distant examples, let's take Wood's battle with Orsteed as an example. At first, the aftershocks of their battle only affected the border between the continent of Milis and the Central Continent.

However, as their battle escalated, the area affected by the fighting gradually spread throughout the world.

If Wood and Alstead hadn't calmed down, then everyone in this world might have become one of those innocent bystanders who died tragically for no reason.

When the first shockwave from the aftermath of Wood's battle with Badigand spread outwards in the form of a ring-shaped shockwave, the students of La Noah Academy belatedly tried to escape, but it was clearly too late.

Because the previous battle was so intense, they had been so oblivious to their own predicament. If the aftershocks of the previous battle were already so outrageous, this new wave of aftershocks, which is comparable to a natural disaster, would leave them not only in mortal danger, but probably not even a single intact part of their bodies.

Fortunately, although the onlookers were slow to realize what was happening, Rudius and Orstide had already prepared a countermeasure.

"Earth-type King-level Magic: Fortress Wall!"

Rudy's strongest magic is actually water magic, followed by earth magic, but in the current situation, using earth magic for defense is obviously more effective than water magic.

The arrogant Water Dragon King brandished his staff, and an enormous earthen-yellow magic circle instantly appeared on the entire field. Accompanied by a rumbling sound, an earthen wall, as thick and tall as a city wall, suddenly rose slowly from the ground.

As soon as the heavy city wall was raised, the onlookers who had been extremely panicked immediately felt relieved.

Putting aside other aspects, the King-level earth magic used by Rudeus has created earth walls that are comparable in thickness and height to those of some major cities, and can even provide some resistance against so-called beast tides.

It should be more than enough to withstand the aftershocks of a battle between two powerful individuals...

At the beginning, the extras basically all had this idea, but soon, their confidence collapsed at a very fast speed, just like the huge earthen wall in front of them!

It's not that Rudy's strength is lacking, nor that his "King-level" magic is too weak.

On the contrary, because his magical power far exceeds that of normal people, even with the same magic, Rudeus's magic is much stronger than that of most people.

King-level earth magic is indeed enough to resist the beast tide, but what is terrifying about the so-called beast tide is the sheer number of magical beasts, which is like a tidal wave. The individual strength of the magical beasts themselves is not a particularly great threat.

The aftershocks of the battle between Korwood and Badigandi were quite different. There are only a handful of magical beasts in the world capable of generating an impact equivalent to that.

Rudy's King-level magic was actually quite powerful, at least enough to withstand two waves of shockwaves before finally collapsing completely after the third wave. As for the subsequent shockwaves, they were all dealt with by Orsteed.

The Dragon God may not be the strongest person in this world... No, after the death of the first Dragon God and Laplace, Orsteed may be the strongest being in the world.

In short, as the strongest, most versatile, and richest person here, Alstead could easily block the shockwaves generated by the battle between Wood and Buddy Gundy, even if he didn't completely ignore them.

Moreover, this time, the intervention was not at the request of Rudy or Wood, but rather by the Dragon God Alsteed on his own initiative.

While Alsted may look down on ordinary humans, he doesn't necessarily dislike them. If saving someone is just a simple matter, he wouldn't mind doing it.

But when Rudy looked at the other party with gratitude, the powerful dragon god raised his head disdainfully and said, "I have no intention of meddling in other people's business, and don't misunderstand me."

"But the sandstorm they're stirring up during their battle is so strong, I'd be unhappy if it got my clothes dirty."

Hearing Auersted's words, Sylphie, true to her good nature of asking questions when she didn't understand, secretly tugged at Rudy's sleeve and whispered in his ear, "Rudy, is this the tsundere trait you told me about when we were kids?"

Hilfi's voice was very soft, but who was the Dragon God Orsteed? Not to mention that the dragon's body structure might be different from that of humans, the five senses of a powerhouse at the level of the Dragon God and Wood were already incredibly sharp.

"That Dragon God, Hilfi doesn't have much common sense, I hope you won't take it to heart."

Hilfi wanted to say something more, but Rudy quickly covered her mouth.

The Dragon God, standing to the side, clearly didn't want to lower himself to the level of a little girl. He simply snorted coldly and turned his head away.

However, Rudy's fear of the Dragon God did not mean that Alice was equally afraid of him. Although she did not know what "tsundere" was, she was happy to do it as long as it annoyed him.

Watching Alice repeatedly call the "tsundere dragon god," Rudy's expression twitched involuntarily. If there was anyone present who had the most "tsundere" traits, it would definitely be Alice herself...

On the other side, with an impact comparable to a falling meteor ravaging the entire area and completely altering the landscape of the La Noah Magic Academy, the battle between Wood and Budigandi finally came to an end.

As for the outcome, when Wood carried the unconscious Badigandi out of the sand, everyone already knew the final result of this battle.

A demon king of the Demon Emperor level was actually defeated by a boy who was not even fifteen years old, and the boy won by hand-to-hand combat as a magician. If this had happened before, probably no one would have believed it.

But now they have witnessed this absurd thing firsthand, and witnessed the birth of a legend.

"Your name is Wood, right? Rudius's twin brother. Would you be interested in becoming a student at our Lanoa Magic Academy?"

Wood's battle with Badigandi had already alarmed the academy's higher-ups. After the battle ended, the academy's dean and other higher-ups approached Wood to inquire whether he had any intention of joining La Noah Magic University.

"But I've already missed the deadline for entering the academy, haven't I? Besides, being Rudy's junior... I think I'd better forget about it..."

"No, no, no, our Lanoa Magic Academy has always had this tradition of specially recruiting some outstanding mages to become our students."

Mr. Wood absolutely meets this requirement in every aspect, and with your abilities, we can arrange for you to become Rudius's classmate.

Despite Wood's refusal, the other party persisted, which was understandable, as the reason why Lanoa Magic Academy was able to become the number one magic academy on the continent was largely due to its accumulated reputation.

As for where fame comes from, that depends on those outstanding graduates and the big shots who come out of the magic academy.

Wood's ability to defeat the Demon King Badigandi was already an extraordinary feat, especially considering that this amazing battle took place within their magic academy. The only drawback was that Wood was no longer a student at their academy.

Imagine if everyone else on the continent knew that the students of Lanoa Magic Academy had even won a one-on-one duel against the Demon King, would Lanoa Magic Academy still have to worry about not being able to recruit other outstanding students in the future?

As for whether Wood possessed such strength before enrolling, who cares?

To be honest, Wood wasn't very interested in becoming a student at the magic academy, but the offer was so generous that he simply couldn't refuse.

Putting other aspects aside, after the Lanoa Magic Academy told Wood that as long as he agreed to become a student of their academy, Lanoa Magic Academy could disregard the admission requirements and admit his two younger sisters, Noren and Aisha, Wood agreed.

Moreover, the other party was well aware that the so-called magic academy could not teach Wood anything at all, so they granted Wood many privileges, including the privilege that he could not participate in the magic university's courses at all.

To put it simply, although Wood agreed to enter La Noah Magic University, he was merely lending his name to advertise for them and acting as a so-called spokesperson.

The advertising fee was for the various benefits promised by the other party, as well as for Norren and Aisha's enrollment in school.

"Greetings, Wood Grellatt. My name is Ariel Anemoy Asra, and I am the president of the Magic University Student Council. Welcome to this magic academy."

Wood's enrollment was merely a formality. Although he received a school uniform and a college badge, Wood did not expect that the person who delivered these items to his door would be the student council president.

"Thank you for bringing these things over in person, but I don't think I'll need them, since I won't be staying at this magic academy for long."

Would a student council president personally deliver school uniforms? And just hearing the last name after the other person's name, Wood knew that the other person was no ordinary person.
