Show me more!” Michael giggled as he jumped around Connor, his sword still sheathed and held in his left hand.He stared at Connor with a wide, uncontainable smile after he had landed a quick jab on Connor’s face .The crowd was taken aback as the fans of Bloodline Academy fell silent, while the Holy Grail Academy supporters erupted in wild cheers.They started to boast about Michael emerging unscathed from the strike, finally finding their voices to retort against the previously taunting Bloodline Academy fans.Agnes,

As Arthur went to place the bet on Michael, he encountered a couple of people who were placing their bets on Connor after witnessing his powerful strike, when they realized Arthur’s choice, they burst into laughter, mocking his decision.--Connor gazed at Michael, still uncertain about how he had managed to evade his attack. He wasn’t scared of him, per se, but he desperately needed to know the spell Michael had cast, this knowledge would enable him to formulate a counter if Michael attempted a similar move again. As he felt if all he did was unleash powerful strikes while Michael evaded everything, then he would be bound to lose.His mind raced with various thoughts, contemplating whether Michael would engage in close-quarter combat after witnessing the destructive capabilities he possessed. However, while Connor was lost in his deliberations, Michael grew bored and swiftly dashed towards him, catching Connor completely off guard
The Golem Mage Unexpected.
The green claw wind blade hurtled towards Michael, and nearly everyone watching had already resigned themselves to the belief that he would not escape unscathed, they thought the referee might just step in at any moment soon to stop the match. However, just as Connor’s claw wind blade was about to tear through him, a brilliant flash of light enveloped Michael. The light emitted such intense mana fluctuations that it generated a shockwave, sending the wind blade hurtling backwards. The shockwave reached Connor, forcing him to swiftly cross his two hands in an X shape and dig his legs into the ground to prevent himself from being propelled by the force of his opponent’s shockwave, which would have been embarrassing. Connor squinted his light blue eyes, attempting to use his heightened sense of smell to locate Michael, but his keen sense of smell warned him of great danger, causing his body to tremble slightly Connor strained to loc

“Now, that’s not something you see every day!” Damien remarked, sipping from his little flask gin as he observed two mages from their reserved team rushing to the stage to retrieve Connor’s body. They aimed to transport him quickly to the healers, who would treat any injuries before they worsened or developed into hidden ones that could impact his foundations and cultivation speed.“So, have you decided who will be fighting next?” Carmilla Sorin asked Dragov directly, attempting to peek over her brother’s shoulder to catch a glimpse of their captain’s face. However, Damien became irritated and used his hand to push her face away.“I don’t care who fights next, as long as it’s not you,” Damien replied, continuing to push her back.“Ah! That’s not fair, I haven’t had the chance to grace the stage and display my abilities, even that grumpy Connor got a chance,” Carmilla pleaded to her brother, hoping he would allow her to fight.

“Who do you think will win the match?” Vincent asked Selena while Kira Nightfang walked towards the battle ring to face Michael in the second round of the Holy Grail versus the Bloodline Academy. Hearing his question, Selena raised an eyebrow and smirked, not immediately replying.“I understand that Kira is your cousin, but I don’t think she’ll easily win this one, if that’s what you expect to hear from me,” Selena said, causing Vincent to sigh.He had his own suspicions, but he wanted to confirm them, and Selena’s response indicated that things were not progressing as he wished but as he had suspected.“First of all, many are underestimating Michael and thinking he’s making a foolish move, but that is where they’re wrong, he has nothing to lose, this is his second round, and regardless of the outcome of this battle, he still gains, since he’s using his head,” Vlad, the vice captain of the Battle Mage Academy, chimed in.Vincent turn

“Wouldn’t you like to step down and give up while you still have the chance?” Carmilla asked, her gaze fixed on Michael, who appeared on the verge of collapsing.“Why would I do that now, after I’ve gathered all this prestige and morale? My hope is to continue fighting until I can no longer stand,” Michael responded confidently.“ Even in a situation when I fall, I would still be seen as a hero, as I would have the crowd’s support on my side, and whoever replaces me next will receive the fans’ passionate backing, this would fuel their desire to defeat you, the one who has eliminated the one who gave the crowd two straight wins, think about that,” Michael expressed his strategy with a smile, leaving Carmilla to shake her head in disbelief.“No wonder my big brother didn’t want me to face you at first, you truly are a troublesome opponent, especially at full power and when you haven’t even unleashed your innate eye laser spell, no wonder he made sure y

They were aware of the danger posed by such thoughts, as it means they might bow out of the tournament soon . However, while some entertained those doubts, Alec could be seen chuckling mischievously, eliciting curious looks from Arthur and Brandon.It had been a while since they had witnessed that familiar expression on Alec’s face, since he didn’t have a chance to try ex

Though they weren’t any larger than the previous [Dark Bolt] spell, but the imminent danger sent alarm bells ringing within her, as she knew at that moment she had to avoid getting struck by this attack.Because the lightning currents that had been coursing around her body, unable to harm her all this while, now surged with increased vigor, seemingly agitated by the new spell directed at her, it was as if every cell in her body screamed against making contact with the

Which was equivalent to at least another ten bodies if they were counting in Tier 5 terms; and now the pills’ value had reached the equivalent of twenty Tier 5 bodies which is the original realm Alec had placed the bid.As the two men stared toward each other’s booth, trying to anticipate each other’s next move and act as cautiously as possible, Alec stood with his hands behind his back, neither announcing nor acknowledging their bids.Everyone was so pumped about his heated bidding battle that the both Booth were probably the only ones being stared at, the crowd found the bidding battle far more interesting than expected, many realizing they even enjoyed watching such power plays.‘Yes! Fight! Bid and spend all your corpses here, in the end, I’ll still be the biggest winner, no matter how much you believe I’m taking a loss,’ Alec thought as he watched them close to breaking down, though he kept a nonchalant face, deep down he was almost jumping for joy seeing how much the pills were

“For the second round, I’ve prepared a batch of various items to speed things up,” Alec began as he walked towards the stone pillar and pulled off the black cloth that had been covering the items. “I have here three different items for the second round, and as you can see, there are three bottles, each holding cultivation pills, the first bottle contains ten Tier 3 cultivation pills.” “The second bottle holds another ten Tier 4 cultivation pills, while the third bottle contains five Tier 5 cultivation pills, and these three bottles will not be sold separately but as a joint sale, and the starting bid is six Tier 5 bodies.” Alec finally concluded his introduction of the second item, which happened to be a bundled sale, after his statement about the contents of the three pill bottles, the entire auction house fell silent. The breaths of many inside hitched as they could hardly believe their eyes, all this while, when they wanted to cultivate, they had relied on power stones harveste
Auction 3.
The second female mage who had moved backstage earlier now rolled out another table, this time two tables interlocked together to prevent them from separating, one of the tables was empty, while the other was covered in a dark cloth, immediately making many in the crowd realize that was the second item of the day hidden beneath it.As the female mages reached the center, she and the first lady who had remained on stage with Alec began transferring the newly purchased armour, won by the black-clothed man onto the empty table. Once they were done, they placed the new item on the new empty stone pillar.Afterward, the first lady rolled the armour offstage while the crowd waited eagerly for the unveiling of the second item.“Well, in this situation, I’ll go straight to the point and not keep you all in suspense,” Alec said as he started walking toward the stone pillar. However, despite his words, there were many in the crowd who didn’t believe him.Because as he was observing some peop

While those interested in the armour were prepared and waiting for Alec to declare the starting bid, the others, who had no intention of bidding couldn’t help letting their imaginations run wild. As they felt If the opening item was already of mid-tier caliber, what else could possibly be in store?, Many silently prayed that something matching their desires would appear next so they could make use of the corpses they had brought in their space rings.As murmurs of speculation filled the hall, Alec stood calmly, a knowing smile on his face as he observed their expressions. This was all part of his plan, starting strong with a high-tier item to set the tone, even if the next few items didn’t match the first in quality, the excitement would remain. As the crowd had already been made to believe that treasures awaited them, and that momentum alone would keep their spirits high, as the eagerly awaited what’s next.This was the power of first impressions, and Alec knew how to wield it

Though Alec already had his suspicions about who was responsible for the probing, but he chose to act as if he hadn’t noticed anything at all.“Seeing how eager you all are to discover what we’ve prepared for you today, I won’t waste any more of your time, especially as you all are respectable figures, so allow me to first explain the one and only rule of the Gordons Auction House.” Alec began, his voice calm but firm.“No matter who you are or what position you hold outside these walls, once you step into this hall, you’ve accepted to be under our care, and with that comes our expectation of a little respect back from you, it’s quite simple, really.”“Our one rule is this: there will be no fighting inside the auction hall, if anyone believes themselves to be above reason, they are free to try gathering mana in a bid to attack, but just know, whatever happens after that, we won’t be held responsible.” Alec’s tone was firm, a quiet authority threading each word as he addressed the crow
D Day 2.
Just as the crowd waited in eager anticipation for the auction to begin, a sudden flash of light burst across the stage, instantly drawing the attention of every guest, conversations fell silent as all eyes turned toward the source, and from the backstage, Alec emerged, flanked by two female mages at his side.He wore a regal-looking robe, deep brown with black trim, bearing the Gordons clan emblem boldly emblazoned on his back and a smaller crest over his left chest, though he’d clearly attempted to comb his hair back neatly, but a few stubborn strands still jutted out at the edges, adding an almost roguish charm to his appearance.Beside him stood two stunning female mages, dressed in elegant yet provocative outfits Alec had personally arranged for the event, their short skirts and stylish tops left little to the imagination, instantly catching the attention of several lustful onlookers. But these women weren’t just decoration, their job for the day was to assist Alec in presentin
D Day.
While the city lord waited impatiently for any word from the Gordons clan, a message finally reached him, just a day before the long-awaited auction, he sat in his study, his usual spot by the window that directly faced the Gordons estate. It had become something of a habit for him, to watch from there, hoping for a sign of unrest at the Gordons, but to his quiet frustration, the sealed gates of the Gordons had been opened, and the estate had come alive again, bustling as though nothing had happened a few days ago.As he stared out, a knock sounded at the door, and he turned to see his son, Alistair, stride in with an unreadable expression.“Father, there’s finally news from the Gordons clan,” Alistair announced, stopping beside his father’s chair.Those words alone made the previously lax city lord sit up, a sharp gleam of interest in his eyes. “Speak. What is it?”Alistair wasted no time. “The Gordons have dispatched envoy mages across the city, reaffirming that the auction w
Merit System.
It had been days since the three assassins were dispatched to the Gordons Clan to eliminate Alec, but with no word or sign of their success, the City Lord was beginning to regret his impulsive decision, the silence gnawed at him as a bitter reminder that he might have once again acted too hastily.He still fumed at how Alec had exchanged sharp words with him in front of so many people, tarnishing his credibility, and the only way he knew to deal with such a problem was to erase it. Alec was quickly becoming another Gordons weed, stubborn, persistent, and dangerously difficult to uproot.On the night of the planned assassination, he had seen the massive array deployed over the Gordons estate, he’d almost allowed himself to relax, convinced that the assassins must have succeeded in their mission. In his mind, there was no other reason for the Gordons to raise such a formation unless it was to contain either someone or something, and he believed it was to keep the assassins from escap
The Delivery.
Eventually, the night dragged on as the mages of the Gordons Clan who hadn’t joined the earlier battle busied themselves, moving wine and supplies in preparation for the celebration ahead.It was tradition in the Gordons Clan that whenever a mage advanced to a new realm, they were to celebrate the breakthrough with loved ones and officially register their new realm at the Clan Hall the following morning. This helped the Elders and the Patriarch track the steady rise in the clan’s strength, but tonight was anything but ordinary, over nine hundred mages had broken through whether it was to a new realm or a small breakthrough in the same realm all would be celebrated tonight as all logistic duties like recording the new realms was pushed to the next day. Some from the main bloodline, others from mixed bloodlines, and even a few enforcers the clan had taken in over the years. Yet, none of that mattered tonight, the entire clan was uniting in a single celebration, preparing to honour
