Full-Time Magister: The Ruler of Wind and Rain

Following the referee's signal, the opposing captain, the female mage who wielded the Fireburst skill, arrogantly spoke first: "My name is Dongfang Qi. I advise my opponents to activate their protective rings and leave the arena now, otherwise, if the fight breaks out, you will definitely suffer a crushing defeat at my hands!"

When it was Wang Yu's turn to take the microphone, he felt he should say something.

"Last year's magic academy final was between the capital city and Mingzhu, with a final score of 3-0. I will never forget the scene when I saw Professor Gu Han slumped in his chair, sobbing uncontrollably."

"At that moment, I thought, if I could become a Pearl student, I would win everything. Now that the championship and admission are right in front of me, I have to consider whether this might be my only chance in this lifetime."

"I believe that Mingzhu College has played an indispensable role in enabling Chinese universities to regain their former prominence. It is our inescapable duty to restore Mingzhu's glory!"

His youthful yet passionate words drew thunderous applause from the audience! The students from Mingzhu and the local Shanghai spectators who came to watch the competition had all been outshone by the Imperial Academy in the Magic Academy finals last year. Today, hearing that someone had such lofty ambitions, regardless of whether they could achieve them, their courage was at least commendable!

But Wang Yu wasn't finished yet. After the applause subsided, he continued:

"This time, we came together to participate in the preparatory class recruitment competition and finally made it to the finals. This is not only a test for the five of us, but also carries the high hopes of our families and schools. I hope that my teammates can believe with me that from the moment you step into the mage arena, your goal is only one:"

"champion."

"Great!" Xie Ze jumped up and clapped excitedly. The audience responded with even more enthusiastic applause and cheers. Most of them had just come to the arena on a leisurely weekend to join in the fun and see their future classmates. They never expected to hear such words. Such an inspiring pre-match speech was indeed very eye-catching.

Only Dongfang Qi, on the other side, had a dark expression. She had thought that the poor student from the unknown city, who had no magical tools, would only embarrass himself under her pressure, but she hadn't expected to become a stepping stone for his impassioned speech. Thinking of this, her face not only darkened but also turned a deep red, a dark reddish-black, like a burning lump of coal.

Alright, the pre-match trash talk is over, and the match officially begins with the referee's whistle!

In an instant, Wu Shulan and Xie Ze, following their pre-planned tactics, simultaneously activated their magic-slaying tools and charged towards Dongfang Qi's face! Wang Yu, however, was slightly slower due to his need to draw wind trails. The opposing team wasn't stupid, but ultimately didn't prioritize the importance of their only magic damage dealer; Dongfang Qi was only protected by the incredibly fast water mage. Wu Shulan and Xie Ze simultaneously activated their magic-slaying tools, hacking at Dongfang Qi, shattering not only her Water Defense - Dissolve but also forcing her to activate her shield magic.

Plan accomplished!

Before the match, Wang Yu analyzed Dongfang Qi's combat habits over the past few rounds and found that she would never give up drawing the star trail in her hand under any circumstances. Therefore, if her teammates could not defend her when she was attacked, she would use the shield magic item in the early stages of the match. Her goal was to release the Fire Burst magic as soon as possible, which had a super destructive power, and break the opponent's line.

Furthermore, Dongfang Qi cares a lot about her performance. Perhaps she knows that if she can't win the championship, she needs to be dazzling enough in each game to stand out. Therefore, her first Fire Burst never targets high-speed moving targets. It is always thrown at the opponent's back row stationary mage who lacks mobility.

This gave Wang Yu's team room to implement their tactics. Two magic-wielding artifacts and two magic-slaying artifacts forcibly replaced Dongfang Qi's shield artifact and the defense provided by her teammates. As a result, Dongfang Qi, who was standing behind the giant shield artifact with poor visibility, would not be able to notice Wang Yu approaching her at high speed from the side.

"Go!" Wang Yu did not waste the opportunity created for him by his teammates. He grabbed Dongfang Qi, who was still drawing star trails behind the shield magic tool, and used the wind trails under his feet to throw this arrogant little sissy off the field!

The embarrassing tactic has once again proven its effectiveness!

However, Dongfang Qi was indeed a ruthless character. Just before Wang Yu threw her out of the arena, she finally completed the release of Fireburst in mid-air. With a wave of her hand, she threw a powerful bright red fireball towards Cheng Hui.

Wang Yu looked in the direction the fire was flying. His original intention was to remind Fu Liming to use his magic tools to defend himself, but what he saw next made his eyes widen in horror!

Fu Liming turned and walked off the field without saying a word, using up all the magical artifacts on his body as he walked. In an instant, two shield artifacts, a set of armor artifacts, and a pair of shoes artifacts shone brightly around him.

The brilliance of the magical artifacts actually shines on such a coward! No, not just a coward, but a traitor! A shameful traitor! Fu Liming not only eliminated himself, but also used up as many magical artifacts as possible before his elimination. That way, even if Wang Yu's team and the opposing team didn't lose in a four-on-five battle, and the number of eliminated players was the same, if they used more magical artifacts, they would still lose!

No, no, there's no time to think about these things anymore, Wang Yu reminded himself. Fireburst-Explosion was flying towards Cheng Hui, and Xie Ze, who hadn't drawn the star trajectory in advance, would definitely not be able to release Water Defense in the next second or two. Wu Shulan's ground wave wasn't that fast either. Right now, only Wang Yu himself could save Cheng Hui!

"Wind!" Wang Yu roared. He dared not spend another two seconds drawing star trails. He could only rely on his still incomplete mastery of the domain's power to command the nearby wind elements for his own use.

As if sensing Wang Yu's intense emotions, wind elements from all directions surged toward him, weaving a blue vortex around him, and then, at Wang Yu's command, forming a wind trail.

With a whoosh, Wang Yu covered a distance of twenty or thirty meters in an instant, arriving at Cheng Hui's side almost in the blink of an eye. He picked her up and ran to safety.

Cheng Hui was also quite frightened. First, when she was hit in the face by a fireball, she turned around and found that her teammates had abandoned her. Then, she was bumped into by Wang Yu, who was rushing towards her at high speed. But she quickly returned to battle mode and said to Wang Yu, "Carry me on your back, I'll use the demon-slaying tool to take down the other side."

Wang Yu had planned it this way all along, and now that he had saved himself the trouble of explaining, it was even better. So he picked Cheng Hui up and carried her on his back, preparing to rush towards the water mage on the other side.

Xie Ze and Wu Shulan are currently on the same Earth Wave-Teleportation. Their magic-slaying tools require several hours to recharge after each use, so they're currently lacking in offensive power. However, as two skilled mages using basic level two magic, dealing with the two less experienced Group A mages shouldn't be a problem, provided they don't get caught by the incredibly expensive light mage on the other side. That guy has activated his magic-slaying tool and is running around the area chasing Wu Shulan and Xie Ze, desperately trying to protect his teammates. He's even used his Light Radiance skill several times, but unfortunately, he only has level one Light Radiance - Purification, which isn't high enough to be considered a powerful flashlight, so it hasn't had much of an impact on Wu Shulan and Xie Ze. Furthermore, the wind mage among the two Group A mages is completely suppressed by Wang Yu's Wind Domain and, like the ice mage, is unable to cast spells.
