The mages from the War God Academy team remained completely focused on the ongoing match, afraid to divert their attention even for a second, fearing they might miss the crucial moves unfolding before them.
Agnes, Sophia, and a few others were all immersed in the intense atmosphere, contemplating what they would do if they were given the opportunity to fight, The matches they were watching had far exceeded their initial expectations.When they imagined facing any of the mages from the Bloodline Academy or the Holy Grail Academy, they couldn’t envision themselves winning.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 exThe air crackled with an eerie energy, swirling in black and purple hues as Carmilla’s hand became engulfed in a vortex of electricity after she snapped her fingers.With a deafening roar, a barrage of black lightning bolts unleashed from Carmilla’s fingertips, each bolt honing in on its target which is CassandraWith unwavering precision. “Shit!” Cassandra, who had remained silent since the start of the fight, cursed as she observed the lightning bolts hurtling toward her. 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
“Give them out! And make sure everyone gets a cultivation pill!” George Gordons laughed heartily as he instructed the boys in charge of cleaning his quarters to distribute the Low Tier cultivation pills he had been hoarding; he had intended to use them for trading with the occasional merchants that visited the Estonia City.But at this moment, he was simply delighted to have invited nearly every Low Tier mage in the clan to receive the pills. Standing behind him not too far were the Grand Elder and the Third Elder, who had effectively become his bodyguard.Although George had claimed that the Third Elder was his new High Rank backup, but the Third Elder was well aware that it was merely a facade. The true reason the patriarch of the Gordons clan had requested his younger brother to stay close was due to persistent paranoia he had about potential attacks against them, and George was determined to avoid a repeat of past events.Taking a sip from
Both Carmilla and Cassandra were sent flying in different directions after their mental image of their Judgment swordsClashed. The golden judgment sword light behind Cassandra fluttered, giving the impression that it was on the verge of being extinguished, on the other hand, the blood-red sword behind Carmilla had visible cracks, indicating that it could shatter at any moment.“So that’s how it is?” Beatrice remarked, drawing Alec’s attention away from the battle.“What did you notice?” Alec inquired.“The blood powers of Carmilla and her brother Damien are quite different, despite them both coming from the same Bloodline, while one might expect them to awaken similar abilities, it appears that is not the case in this situation,” Beatrice explained.“Firstly, Damien possesses the ability to manipulate blood freely, while Carmilla seems to only have blood elemental abilities or limited blood control, maybe it’s about the B
Bang!!The resounding impact of Cassandra’s punches landing on Carmilla was so powerful that the crowd instinctively flinched with each sound. Without the restraint of the huge Great sword, Cassandra’s movements became a blur as she attacked with incredible speed, accompanied by bright flashes of light. She swiftly shuffled from one place to another, pushing herself towards the center of the arena where Carmilla stood.Cassandra continued to accelerate the power behind her punches, relentlessly aiming to land them on Carmilla Sorin. The intense assault persisted for about a minute before Carmilla finally collapsed onto the ground, exhausted and unable to continue defending against the power punches.The referee had to intervene, stepping in to stop Cassandra from continuously pummelling Carmilla. “And the winner is Cassandra Blade, achieving another point for the Holy Grail Academy!” the referee announc
"I still can't wrap my head around the fact that both of these mages facing each other are actually first-year students, how in the world are the ordinary academy disciples supposed to compete against that?" "I attended the Bandit Academy a few years ago, and even back then, only the third or fourth-year students had reached the Tier 5 realm.” “ And even then, it was only the exceptional ones among them who had been through life-or-death battles," one spectator commented, reflecting on their own experiences."Or they have the backing of elders, which accelerates their progress faster than others, but the mages from the Great Eight Academy are definitely challenging my understanding of the strength that first-year academy students should possess," another spectator nearby couldn't help but add as they watched the intense battle between Cassandra and Damien."What do you know? Don't feel disheartened, as no matter what you do, the first-year students f
Despite what others may have thought, in this moment, all Damien and Cassandra could focus on was defeating their opponent. Cassandra wielded the halberd with such skill and proficiency that the crowd found themselves questioning where her true expertise lay. As not only had she displayed mastery with her dual blades at the start of the battle, but she also effortlessly handled the Enormous Great sword, causing others to doubt their perception of its weight. However, when the sword clashed against Carmilla, spectators realized they had underestimated the true power behind the weapon.Just as they thought they had seen it all, Cassandra now fought bare-fisted and seamlessly transitioned to wielding a halberd, pushing through a series of spearheaded blood chains aimed at her.–“Man, I have to say, that’s a strong clanswoman you have there. If she is being pushed out of the clan just like you were, then I’m really starting to do
The Grand Arena erupted in cheers as Cassandra closed the distance to Damien, wasting no time in thrusting her halberd towards him. The fans of the Bloodline Academy gasped in Shock as the halberd swiftly closed the gap between them, resembling a bolt of lightning, as it shot forth with bright light.“Puchi!” The halberd made contact with Damien, but the scene that the Holy Grail Academy fans had been hoping for did not occur. Instead, Damien’s body scattered into tiny bats, which flew away and reconvened on the other side of the arena. There, Damien’s body reconstructed itself, but this time he wielded a unique-looking blood red spear.The spear, approximately six feet in length, appeared to be crafted from a dark, dense wood. It was polished to a high sheen and adorned with intricate patterns of swirling, thorn-like filigree, the carvings embedded reddish copper, while runes adorned the supple leather wrapping a
As Damien was declared the winner, Cassandra simply relaxed her body, unlike the others who may have had unresolved feelings about losing, she showed no signs of disappointment or attitude despite the fact that she had been the one dominating the fight since the start of the match.Taking the loss in stride, Cassandra maintained her perfectly blank expression as her great sword flashed with white light, returning to her space ring.Without even casting a glance back at Damien, she began to calmly walk down the battle ring. This provoked a sneer from Damien, he knew that he hadn't won in the manner he had hoped, but defeating the formidable Cassandra without such tactics would have regardless be close impossible as he was unsure who would survive at the end. The moment Cassandra stepped down from the battle ring, Damien swiftly summoned healing pills from his space ring.Using his left hand, he removed the cover and consumed the pills, a
