“Damien really is a daredevil,” remarked one observer.“He hasn’t even won the match against Cassandra yet, and he made plans for the next battle.”“I don’t even know how to describe his confidence, the way he has strategized in advance clearly shows how much faith he has in himself, for a mage to possess such unwavering determination, it’s evident that he’ll go far on his cultivation journey,” another person added.Words like these circulated among the individuals seated in the VIP section as they nodded in approval of Damien’s strategies, momentarily forgetting the fact that he had come close to losing the previous battle despite all his strategic planning playedHowever, it was ultimately his ability to catch Cassandra by surprise at the very end that made all the difference.“See, this is what they mean when they say the winners write history,” reflected the Dean of the Bloodline Academy in a conversation wit

“It’s been quite a while, Damien, how have you been?” Marcus greeted, settling into a horse stance and stretching his arms outward while pushing his right leg forward.“Don’t talk to me as if we’re buddies, the last time we met, you tried to kill me, remember? It’s time for me to pay you back,” Damien retorted, swiping his hand and summoning a pitch-black sword with red cracks.“If you said that when you were in a better state, maybe I would have believed it, but how do you plan to defeat me with your current mana state? If you want, I can give you a little break,” Marcus teased, but Damien chuckled.“We both know you won’t do that, so stop pretending to be nice and come at me, as for Mana, you don’t have to worry. I may not be at my best, but I managed to draw some blood from your previous teammate.” “ Although converting his blood energy to mana will cause me to lose some of it in the process,” Damien explained.“But it’s sti
The Golem Mage 569
The entire crowd remained entranced, their eyes fixated on the massive blood dome that enveloped the battle ring. It all began when Damien started casting the [Blood Mist] spell, and it soon became clear to them that his intentions extended beyond obstructing Marcus’s vision. Damien had strategically placed runes around the battle ring while obstructing Marcus’s vision, the runes are what activated the domain, so he had his blood clone diverted Marcus’s attention for a while and that’s why, It was only now that Marcus realized he had been ensnared within a sprawling blood dome. Initially the crowd perceived his attempt as a mere tool to impair Marcus’s sight, but the spectators are beginning to comprehend its true purpose, and that is to disrupt Marcus’s senses entirely.They came to this realization because they had witnessed Damien’s actions first-hand. Although the blood dome obscured their view, the screen ab

“Dragov Dragonmir, it’s your turn to take the stage!” The red-haired referee called out, since Damien had been escorted out of the battle ring by the reserve team of the Bloodline Academy. Now, it was only Marcus Sanctus who awaited Dragov for the climactic final match to commence at the battle ring.Without hesitation, Dragov rose from his seat and began his deliberate stride toward the battle ring, the resounding drag of his battle axe accompanying each of his slow yet steadfast steps as he made his way to the battle ring stairs.“Dragov!!!” The fans of the Bloodline Academy erupted in cheers, their voices ringing out even before he set foot in the arena.It was as if they were summoning him to make things right, to secure victory for their Academy team. To them, Dragov was not only the last warrior standing but also the captain of their Academy squad. And they placed the weight of their academy’s ambitions squarely on
The Golem Mage Climax 2.
As the light beam hurtled towards Dragov at incredible speed, the crowd eagerly awaited the outcome, their eyes fixed on the intense spectacle.Among the spectators, a few fans of the Bloodline Academy grew increasingly concerned for Dragov’s well-being. But despite their worry, they knew that convincing him to evade the impending attack would be futile. Dragov was the type of person who relished in challenges, and if he hadn’t been willing to face them head-on, he would never have allowed Marcus to unleash such a powerful assault against him in the first place. Marcus’s strategy of channelling the light beam after a brief moment of charging was a prudent move. As no seasoned Mage in their right minds would willingly grant their opponent the opportunity and time to gather such a devastating spell that could leave them in a perilous state. Had Marcus attempted the same tactic against Damien, he would have nimbly rushed forwar
The Golem Mage Final Match 1.
“Begin!” The referee’s voice boomed through the arena as the final match between the Holy Grail Academy and the Bloodline Academy commenced. Like previous matches, the crowd erupted into enthusiastic cheers, fervently supporting their respective team captains.“Well, it has all come down to this,” Alec muttered to himself, his hands intertwined as they covered his mouth. His head bowed, lost in deep contemplation, the intense battles of the second round stirred thoughts within him. Alec wondered if he would be able to defeat all five members of an opposing team without his golems. If any of the other captains from the Great 8 academies could hear his thoughts right now, they would undoubtedly be tempted to blast him away with their spells. Even though they exuded confidence in their ability to triumph in one-on-one matches against their own team members, facing multiple consecutive battles without rest would take a toll on b
The Golem Mage The Unexpected Visit.
Julian focused his gaze on the rapidly approaching Dragov, who charged toward him with astonishing speed.The battle axe he wielded was raised high above his head, its blade shimmering with the elemental power of the wind.Realizing he had limited options, Julian stretched out his hand and swiftly cast a defensive spell infused with light element.As a spherical ball of light materialized around him, forming a protective barrier. However, even this formidable defence proved insufficient to halt Dragov’s relentless onslaught. As Dragov’s axe crashed down upon Julian, sending him hurtling towards the ground.–Selene, who had been watching the match alongside the rest of the War God Academy team, frowned and turned towards the VIP section when she got a mental message.“I’m afraid this is where our analysis gathering ends, the Dean has asked to see the captain and the team in our quarters,” Selene announced,
The Golem Mage Turned Down.
The Dean had anticipated that the team of mages would eagerly accept his offer, motivated by his apparent goodwill. However, when he extended his hands with the expectation of a grateful response, the room fell into an uncomfortable silence. The lack of reaction left him in an awkward stance, unsure of how to proceed without embarrassing himself, his arms still outstretched as if he were Santa Claus bestowing gifts.“Um, what seems to be the issue? Do you doubt my sincerity, or do you believe I’m incapable of fulfilling my promises? If there’s anything you need, anything that you believe could enhance your combat abilities and contribute to victory in the next battle, please speak up,” the Dean finally said, his words laced with a sweetness intended to coax a response from the team.Alec’s eyes narrowed with a hint of sly curiosity. He was tempted to make a brazen request, but he hesitated, recalling that he had only ever been so u

“Wait! You don’t all have to be so resistant, we can settle this amicably, instructor Phil and Jasper are only trying to help the team progress further,” the Dean pleaded, attempting to find a compromise.“I understand that as a team, you have the right to voice your concerns about who works with you, however, you need to consider their help, especially Jasper.” “He has a keen eye and can provide valuable analysis and insights on a higher level, allowing you to take advantage of strategic opportunities,” the Dean explained, trying to emphasize the potential benefits of having the Instructors on the team.“If you don’t mind, just let him be part of the team, he won’t interfere too much, but rather offer a few suggestions for the line-up.” “ Now, don’t tell me you’re willing to miss out on these benefits just because an unfamiliar person will be deciding who fights first,” the Dean said, directing his gaze towards Alec.His eyes

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
Auction 4.
“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
Auction 1.
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
