Full-Time Magister: Eight Unique Skills at the Start, Invincible After Descending the Mountain

Chapter 36 The Fate of the Intermediate-Level Mage

boom!!

With a terrifying tremor, before anyone could react, Bai Yu's figure was blasted to the edge of the arena!

It slammed hard against the high-level barrier, creating ripples that spread out in layers before finally landing!

"What the hell? What the hell did I just see?"

"The summoner's ace was actually knocked away by the healer?"

"Damn, that's foul! He used a magic scroll!"

For a moment, the people around were stunned, and then a loud commotion broke out.

Immediately afterward, the referee, regaining his senses, walked over to Bai Yu and began checking his injuries.

"Don't worry, he's fine!"

Luo Chen spoke calmly while shaking his wrist.

The referee was about to stop the duel when he discovered that Bai Yu indeed had no external injuries; he had simply fainted…

What Luo Chen said was naturally the truth.

He not only held back a great deal of force in his move just now, but he also deliberately affixed a lot of talismans to Bai Yu's body beforehand to restrict his movements.

That's why Bai Yu didn't even try to dodge and was directly blasted away by Luo Chen's punch!

With that punch, Luo Chen also used the Dual-Hand Technique to prevent his opponent from being killed by his punch if he was under the force of the blow.

Bai Yu was so pained by the blow that he immediately lost consciousness.

Soon, after a comprehensive evaluation by the treating physician, Bai Yu was indeed fine, and the referee officially announced Luo Chen's victory.

Half of Bai Yu's points were instantly transferred to Luo Chen, in addition to the points Luo Chen originally had.

Luo Chen's current score has reached 120 points.

Currently ranked number one in all rankings in the ladder competition...!!

Immediately after the referee announced the results of the match, the top spot on the leaderboard, which was updated in real time on the school's official website, changed to a different name.

Those who had been mocking Luo Chen suddenly felt a sting in their faces...

After all, they had just been saying that Luo Chen was about to kneel down and admit defeat, but before they could even finish their sentence, the facts slapped them in the face.

Luo Chen not only didn't lose, but he also knocked his opponent unconscious with just one move...

But naturally they didn't think they were wrong, and instead chose to remain stubborn!

"Winning with a magic scroll? That's too extravagant! If I had the money, I could do that too!"

"Isn't this considered exploiting a loophole in the rules?"

"But aren't they also exploiting loopholes in the rules? You can accuse them of using magic scrolls, but why don't you accuse them of using defensive magic items?"

"He's using something as precious as a magic scroll in a competition; what a waste!"

"If I could exchange a magic scroll for a chance to train at the Three-Step Tower, I would do it."

Amidst the surrounding chatter, words of envy and admiration could also be heard...

Clearly, everyone present was somewhat envious of Luo Chen's unexpectedly high score.

After all, in their eyes, Luo Chen had only managed to win by catching them off guard with a magic scroll.

Some people marveled at Luo Chen's good luck, saying he'd stumbled upon a great bargain!

Some people also admired Luo Chen's decisiveness, his decisive use of the magic scroll to gain a chance to win!

But regardless of who they are, they all basically share the same understanding of Luo Chen's next decision.

Now that Luo Chen has won, he will definitely use these 120 points to leave the arena and play it safe.

After all, these 120 points are equivalent to winning against 22 ordinary students in a row while voluntarily stepping down, plus the 10 points you already have.

Aside from mid-level mages, most beginner mages simply can't withstand a relentless barrage of attacks from other beginner mages...

Therefore, in their view, Luo Chen clearly did not have a second magic scroll to perform the miracle he had just performed.

Given the unknown circumstances, the consensus among the audience regarding Luo Chen was that he would take the points and run away.

Because only in this way can profits be maximized...

Just when everyone thought Luo Chen was about to run away with the points, Luo Chen spoke up to the referee beside him:

"Let's continue!"

The referee was clearly surprised by Luo Chen's decision. After a moment of hesitation, he asked with some uncertainty:

"Are you sure that if you lose, you'll lose half of the points you just earned..."

"Sure!"

Luo Chen spoke calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the audience below the stage burst into laughter, ready to see Luo Chen make a fool of himself!

"I take back what I just said, he really is an idiot."

"A healing mage has to defend his title? That's the funniest joke I've heard all year!"

"Get out of my way, I'll pick up the pieces!"

In an instant, the moment Luo Chen finished speaking, chaos erupted in the entire arena.

Almost everyone was rushing towards the ring, trying to be the first to grab a bargain.

Some even resorted to wind magic, just in an attempt to get ahead of others.

This surging crowd formed a stark contrast to the silent scene when Bai Yu looked up and down earlier!

Looking at the scene before him, Luo Chen couldn't help but reveal a hint of disdain in his eyes...

ridiculous!

Suddenly, the referee blew his whistle.

Luo Chen turned his head and saw a man who looked somewhat nonchalant stepping onto the arena wearing magical artifacts.

He wore a nonchalant smile, but the pride within that smile was impossible to conceal.

But unlike Bai Yu, he wasn't flamboyant; he just stood casually on the stage.

Those trying to rush onto the ring then realized that someone had already stepped onto the ring before everyone else!

"It's him?! That guy from the Dongfang family?! Dongfang Lie!"

"I heard that his fire magic star is naturally mutated, allowing him to use magic of a higher level."

"Does that mean he can now use level four fire spells?"

"Too small-minded, too narrow-minded. This young man from the Dongfang family is a renowned genius even within aristocratic circles; he has already broken through to the middle stage!"

"Holy crap, if you add his talent to that, wouldn't he be able to unleash a level 2 Fierce Fist? Even a mid-level mage wouldn't be able to withstand that, right?"

"Otherwise, why would people call him a genius from a prestigious family?"

"Heh heh, then this guy from the treatment center is in for a rough time..."

"Maybe they can turn things around?"

"Even mid-level mages have entered the fray, what chance do they have? How can a healing mage possibly turn the tide?"

"Yes, it can't be flipped!"

"If he can turn things around, I'll give you this seat! You believe me?"
