Magic: Reincarnate from high-voltage electricity at the start, level up independently.

The virtual arena was bustling with activity.

From the stands, Xu Wan looked at the cold-faced girl beside her, her tone grave: "Hajiran, how confident are you in this battle?"

Ever since she learned that Chu Hong was a complete hypocrite, she understood all too well the anger and resentment in her best friend's heart.

If it were me, I would definitely do everything in my power to completely defeat it and wash away all the pent-up frustration in my heart.

Tang Xiaoran remained silent, slowly raising five fingers, her pupils fixed on Chu Hong, who had already stepped onto the arena, her eyes surging with undisguised coldness.

"Fifty percent?" Xu Wan couldn't help but be surprised.

She had heard that Chu Hong was the undisputed number one student at No. 2 Middle School, having entered the ranks of intermediate-level mages at a young age, and possessed formidable strength.

Meanwhile, her best friend had only condensed her tenth magic core after the monthly exam, and she didn't even know if she had advanced to the intermediate level yet.

Facing Chu Hong, there is probably no chance of victory.

Is this the source of confidence that obsession breeds?

Tang Xiaoran finally turned her head, her gaze sweeping over Xu Wan, and said slowly and deliberately, each word icy cold: "I didn't say fifty percent, I said I would slap him to death."

As soon as she finished speaking, her figure transformed into shimmering streams of data light, slowly dissipating from the spot. The next second, she condensed directly in the center of the arena, facing Chu Hong from afar.

Chu Hong raised his eyes and looked at his suddenly appearing opponent. His brows furrowed instantly, and his tone was impatient: "It's you."

He could clearly see the extreme coldness in the girl's eyes, her disgust for him undisguised.

He doesn't understand.

But he didn't take the girl in front of him seriously at all. He only wanted a quick victory, to defeat her decisively, and then, glancing towards the corner of the stands, he would smugly say to the person he had been longing for, "Imo-chan, wasn't Onii-chan amazing?"

Without uttering a single wasted word, Tang Xiaoran suddenly condensed pale green wood-elemental magic in her palm, and with a slight movement, launched the first attack.

next moment!

Several vines as thick as a wrist burst from the ground with a roar, growing wildly and waving wildly, sweeping towards Chu Hong with a sharp gust of wind.

"Overestimating yourself." Chu Hong's lips curled into a cold smile, his eyes filled with disdain. Instantly, raging flames rose around him, the crimson flames surging wildly, and the heat wave swept across the entire area.

Tang Xiaoran felt a burning pain rush to her face and subconsciously took a few steps back, her eyes narrowing slightly.

The vines that rushed out were instantly burned to ashes the moment they touched the flames, and scattered with the wind.

"Hakiran, you absolutely cannot lose to this fake!"

"Otherwise, the world really will be destroyed!"

In the stands, Xu Wan sighed heavily, her heart pounding with anxiety for Tang Xiaoran.

Given the difference in their cultivation levels and the fact that she was countered by his elemental attributes, she was at a complete disadvantage in this battle. Her earlier boast that she would slap him to death was incredibly overconfident.

Even Empress Xu Wan, who was confident in her invincibility among those of the same level, would not dare to make such a boast.

In this situation, all we can do is pray for good fortune.

"Come on, place your bets now! Bet on Chu Hong to win at 1:1 odds, bet on Tang Xiaoran to win at 4:1 odds!" On the sidelines, some students, eager to stir up trouble, shouted at the top of their lungs, instantly igniting a commotion in the stands.

"I'll bet one yuan on Tang Xiaoran, after all, she's done her part for the class... Never mind, I'll bet fifty on Chu Hong too!"

"Damn it, you traitor, you actually didn't help your own people!"

Upon hearing this, the students from the nearby No. 2 Middle School cast sneer glances at him: "Is there even a choice? That siscon will definitely win. Don't you know the value of 'Chu Hongye You'? I'll bet a hundred!"

The stands were filled with noise and chatter. Chu Ge sat alone in a quiet corner, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the two fighters in the ring, his expression calm.

Her adopted brother was indeed incredibly powerful, with a dense and powerful aura of magic around him, having condensed at least three magic crystals, making him far stronger than ordinary people.

Looking at Tang Xiaoran, her cultivation level was significantly lower, and she was also countered by her elemental attributes, putting her at a disadvantage. It would be too difficult for her to win.

What puzzled Chu Ge was that there was no panic in her eyes, but rather a calm and composed demeanor, as if she were hiding a secret.

On the arena, the battle had reached a fever pitch.

Tang Xiaoran was suppressed by Chu Hong's fire magic, forced to retreat step by step, and eventually backed to a corner of the arena. However, she remained cautious and did not engage in a direct confrontation to avoid injury. With her agile movement and magical defense, she was currently in relatively good condition.

Chu Hong looked at the girl who had initially taken the initiative but was now forced to defend and struggle, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

What happened to their previous aggressive attitude? They're no longer effective?

He glanced out of the corner of his eye toward Chu Ge in the stands and saw that the other was watching the game. He was overjoyed.

Imo-chan, you were actually watching me!

Then watch closely as Onii-chan takes down this arrogant fool in one fell swoop!

In an instant, the demonic power within Chu Hong surged violently, and the flames around him suddenly flared up, condensing into a huge fire tornado in mid-air.

The flames raged and the heatwave spread, and even the students in the stands felt unbearably hot, as if they were in a furnace, even across the arena.

The next second, the fire tornado, carrying a devastating force, sped out, sweeping away all obstacles in its path, and crashing straight towards Tang Xiaoran in the corner.

"This magic power is incredible, and the control it has is amazing! No wonder he's the top student in No. 2 High School!"

"Damn it, I feel like my eyebrows are going to be burned off!"

"Anyone need to pee? Come quick! My dear little brother's been roasted unconscious! Anyone who peees yellow, come and wake him up!"

"Oh no, I regret betting on the class representative. Is it too late to bet on Chu Hong instead?"

In the corner of the arena, Tang Xiaoran raised her eyes and quietly watched the approaching fire tornado. Her gaze then swept over Chu Hong's almost empty magic bar, and a glint of light flashed in her eyes.

It's now!

The pale green wood-based magic that she had been using for defense in her palm instantly dissipated, replaced by a gentle yet powerful aquamarine magic that slowly lingered around her fingertips.

Tang Xiaoran raised her hand, unleashing all the remaining magic power in her body, and suddenly the wind and clouds surged in the sky above the arena.

Several enormous water columns appeared out of thin air, rapidly swirling and converging, instantly forming an incredibly violent water tornado that, with overwhelming force, went straight to meet the fire tornado!

"Water element? A born dual-element mage?!"

This scene instantly stunned everyone present.

Chu Hong, who looked disdainful, the noisy spectators in the stands, and the teachers from various schools watching the battle from the virtual world all stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

"Damn it!"

Xu Wan suddenly stood up from her seat, exclaimed in surprise, and stared intently at the girl on the stage.

"You deadbeat best friend, how could you keep such a big secret from me? That's so unfair!"

A deafening roar of cheers and shouts erupted from the stands.

"What did I just see? The class representative summoned a water tornado! She's a natural dual-element awakener!"

"Those people from No. 2 High School, open your eyes and see clearly, this is the real genius!"

"You used to call her the class representative, and she didn't mind. What should you call her now?"

Chu Ge looked at the figure in the center of the arena, and a ripple of emotion finally appeared in his eyes, and his heart suddenly felt enlightened.

So that's how it is. No wonder she remained so calm throughout; she had been hiding her dual-elemental talents. Her forbearance and low profile were truly unexpected.

But then she frowned slightly.

Although water overcomes fire, Tang Xiaoran's magical power was undeniable, and the water tornado she condensed was inferior to Chu Hong's fire tornado in both scale and power.

The best outcome of this collision would be nothing more than the two sides canceling each other out.

But what happens when the magic is exhausted?

Neither of them has any magic power left, so are they going to decide the winner through hand-to-hand combat?

Tang Xiaoran was slender and far inferior to Chu Hong in both strength and physique, so the situation remained dangerous.

Outside the virtual world, in the teachers' observation room.

Wang Jian stared intently at the screen in front of him. He never imagined that there was a naturally gifted dual-elemental awakener in his class.

A teacher from No. 2 Middle School standing nearby looked on with envy and couldn't help but say, "A person born with two specializations is extremely rare, and you can't find many like that in the whole country. Your school has struck gold."

"With her around, she might shine in the global magic college entrance exam three years from now and bring glory to the school."

"...Thank you for your kind words." Wang Jian suppressed the turmoil in his heart and refocused all his attention on the arena.

In the center of the arena, the water tornado and the fire tornado collided with a deafening roar.

There was no dazzling explosion, no violent and terrifying shockwave. The two extreme elemental forces slowly merged and canceled each other out, eventually turning into a sky full of white mist and steam, which slowly dissipated into the air without leaving any residual power.

Everything went exactly as Chu Ge had predicted.

"No way? It's over already? I was waiting to see a nuclear explosion!" a student in the stands shouted with a look of disappointment.

"Bomb my ass, I don't want to be cannon fodder." The classmate next to him rolled his eyes at him, then looked at the ring. "But in this situation, is it considered a draw?"

Just as everyone was discussing this, Wang Jian's calm voice resounded throughout the virtual arena through its sound system:

"Both of you have exhausted your magic. Do you wish to continue fighting?"
