Cultivators at the Wizarding Academy

Chapter 172 Dorothy's Victory

The slime protective suits climbed onto the two people's bodies.

Looking down at the short wizard not far away from his high vantage point, a contemptuous smile crept across his lips.

No one reminded him of his opponent's identity, and he subconsciously regarded him as an ordinary person.

One charge is all it takes to end the battle.

The referee announces the start of the match!

Tashan frantically shook the reins, accompanied by unique commands. His honed riding skills, honed over countless trials, inexplicably failed him. The Frost Triceratops not only failed to move forward, but instead slowly retreated, its massive body trembling slightly.

"What's going on? Rudo! Charge!"

In a comical moment, the Frost Triceratops lost control and turned tail, leading the knights off the field.

Tai'an won easily and inexplicably.

"How lucky! I've encountered something that's practically a bye."

The audience was abuzz with discussion, even Ye Die was moved by it, only hope remained deep in thought.

"It wasn't a fluke; he cast a fear spell!"

"Ah, how could you possibly use fear on a dragon?" Night Butterfly couldn't believe it. Usually, it was the dragons who used dragon's might to intimidate other creatures.

"Absolutely right!" hope said with certainty.

In the Mage Division, many people in the stands were watching the Wizard Division's performance.

The two sides have always been competitors.

Although the Wizarding Division has fewer students, they have consistently achieved good rankings in the ranking battles, making the Mage Division shudder with their victories.

I don't understand why, even though we have more than ten times the number of people, we can only admit defeat.

That doesn't make sense! It doesn't conform to statistics at all!

It's important to know that ranked battles are usually held during the day when the weather is clear. This greatly limits the wizard's most powerful ability to summon the undead, and there are also various arena rules that restrict black magic such as Shadowfire.

"Xiao An, come here quickly!" Taiya called out loudly from the area of ​​the Mage Division. She waved her hand and communicated telepathically.

Tai'an wanted to pretend he hadn't heard, mainly because Taiya had been helping out lately and hadn't had time to bother him. He was afraid she would quit, so he obediently walked over, looking both proud and reluctant.

The female mages all cast curious glances their way.

Taiya gave Tai'an a warm hug and went behind him to introduce him to everyone: "This is my younger brother, Xiao'an! He's always been very well-behaved and obedient since he was little."

"She's talking nonsense!" Tai'an shook his neck in annoyance.

The female mages were all very beautiful. Among the hundreds of people in the stands, a quick glance revealed several girls whose looks were rated 90 or higher.

If it weren't for the once-in-a-century underground ruins opening at the Wizarding Division, three out of the four little girls in the class would probably have gone to the Mage Division.

As Tai'an's thoughts raced, she found herself surrounded by older men of the opposite sex.

"Oh my! Xiao An is so cute! Can I give her a kiss...?"

"No, all of you stay away from me..."

In the second district, Dorothy faced off against Caroline, the seeded player from the Mage Division.

Both of them thought it was the best outcome, and smiles appeared on their faces simultaneously.

"You're only in first grade! Little girl, you should just give up!"

"I'm really looking forward to sparring with my senior..."

Caroline didn't expect to persuade her opponent to withdraw; there were very few precedents. Unless one side was completely unknown and the other a household name. She clearly didn't fall into the latter category.

"Let's have a great showdown!"

Caroline allowed the referee to cover her with a black slime protective suit, and proudly raised her wand.

At the start of the battle, they launched a series of fireball attacks without hesitation.

The continuous stream of orange-red fireballs was amplified by the elemental gem embedded at the top of the wand, greatly increasing their power.

Many spellcasters like to equip their wands with various orbs and inscriptions. With just a little mental energy input, they can unleash an unreasonable barrage of attacks.

Common spell orbs include Fire Orb, Frost Orb, and Dark Orb, which typically amplify spells of different elements.

The overwhelming fireballs engulfed Dorothy.

Caroline, a fourth-year student this year, also participated in the ranking battles during her first year. Three years of combat experience and training have made her far from the novice she once was; her grades are now consistently between 100th and 200th. She is considered one of the top students in the Mage Division, a source of expectation and pride for her instructors. Undoubtedly, she wants to go even further this academic year.

The inscription array of contracts beneath Dorothy's feet shone brightly. A massive rock golem stood before her like a shield.

Despite the opponent's barrage of fireballs, he continued to advance rapidly.

The intense clash between the two drew the attention of everyone in the arena. A duel between spellcasters was indeed more visually appealing than one between warriors.

Dorothy felt the relentless heatwaves surging towards her. With the power of her wand and magic orb, her opponent could barely consider the cost of their attack, swinging their sword like an ordinary swordsman, making it a completely normal attack.

They had to admit that they were being suppressed by overwhelming firepower.

It's a pity I didn't learn Xiao An's special skill, the mental shield, otherwise I wouldn't be in such a passive position.

"Almost there! Break through the soil! Entangling vines!"

Dark green vines tightly wrapped around Caroline's feet, and then bound her entire body.

"Little sister, you actually know this move! That's really good..." She even had the mind to praise her, as flames instantly ignited on her body.

Basic spell: Flame Protection.

Under the high temperature, the magic vine lost its vitality, and Caroline successfully broke free.

Having encountered many wizard opponents in the past, I have naturally studied their attack methods and have prepared countermeasures in mind.

Techniques like the Entangling Vines and the Netherfire Balls have been thoroughly studied and offer nothing new. The Rock Golem, however, was somewhat unexpected.

However, Caroline had already figured out a way to counter it. All they had to do was attack from the side!

Fireballs with long tails kept falling from the sky, crashing into Dorothy's diamond-shaped shield.

Taking advantage of her opponent's momentary lapse in attention, Dorothy didn't give up and instead revealed her trump card. Two hellhounds emerged from the contract summoning inscription array.

The Violet family's exclusive bloodline talent allows them to control abyssal creatures.

"Attack!" Dorothy ordered.

Compared to undead creatures that are countered by sunlight, abyssal creatures, while still hating sunlight, are not hindered in their movement and combat capabilities.

Two hellhounds flanked Caroline from the left and right, their negative energy gathering and brewing on their heads.

The tide of battle turned, and Caroline, who was now in a dominant position, looked terrified. The two hellhounds, veritable bane of spellcasters, simultaneously unleashed their Soul Burn, reducing her mental energy by more than a tenth. A wave of weakness washed over her, and she nearly lost her footing.

He raised his hand to cast a fire wall in an attempt to block them. However, he underestimated the fearlessness of the abyssal creatures.

Ignoring their burns, the two hellhounds charged at Caroline and viciously rammed into the hastily released Earth Guardian Elemental Shield.

The mage's flashy elemental magic was ultimately defeated by the powerful flesh and blood of the abyssal creatures.

The referee declared Dorothy the winner.
