Magic Recovering: Billion Folds Talent - Chapter 16
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lanza chatted with Andrew for a while, then deliberately put on an embarrassed look and taunted the few mages from Faerun City.
“I’m sorry, the quality of our Academy’s students is indeed not bad this time. The talents that your city has nurtured this year are a bit weak. What a pity.”
“How dare you!”
The advanced mage, Mr. Nolan, was also the President of the Association of Faerun City. He stood up angrily. On the other side, the two intermediate mages from Faerun City were much calmer.
One of them, Mensa, spoke slowly.
“According to what I know, this Tim should be a graduate of your Academy. How can he participate in the Academy’s competition this time?”
Lanza’s smile froze. In a small place like Rafax City, the Magic Academy only provided courses that went all the way to the beginner mage level, and Tim had applied to graduate early because he had to get the Association’s allowance as soon as possible to subsidize his family expenses.
The people of Faerun City had already realized this.
Before the people on the rostrum could react, Mensa jumped down.
Then, he stood in front of Tim and said, “Since you have graduated, and yet you can represent the Academy. You won’t mind competing with me, right?”
Lanza turned pale with fright.
“You guys are crazy!”
Andrew’s expression was cold as he said, “Shameless.”
Although he was confident in his son’s strength, it didn’t mean that Tim would be able to defeat this intermediate mage. He was also a little anxious.
However, Tim nodded seriously.
“Your point is valid!”
“Come on.”
He said casually, not taking this so-called intermediate mage seriously.
“Good, you have courage!”
To confirm the results of the competition, Mensa had already charged Tim.
Unlike the first time he faced his opponent, who was also a beginner mage, Tim was not as arrogant this time. Instead, he calmly condensed a fireball and a wind blade in each of his hands, ready to face the attack.
“You can use two types of magic at the same time, and your energy level far surpasses that of an average beginner mage. You’re indeed a genius! But unfortunately, I can’t let you live!”
Mensa’s eyes turned cold. Initially, he just wanted to teach Tim a hard lesson, but when he realized Tim’s superb talent and potential, he had the intention to kill.
“With such a genius, Faerun City will probably be suppressed for many years to come…”
Mensa conjured an intermediate spell called ‘water flow avoidance’ in his palm to block Tim’s attack. At the same time, under the cover of the water flow, he took out a magic scroll.
This was an advanced intermediate spell. It was the ultimate single-target explosive damage spell in the intermediate mage realm. It was able to kill in one hit!
However, Tim did not notice it at all.
In the next second, the flames and wind blades collided with the water flow and then canceled out. The explosion that was set off even forced Mensa back a few meters, making him look rather pathetic. The people of Rafax City in the Academy’s Grand Competition venue cheered.
At this moment, as if they had received some kind of signal, the few mages from the Faerun City, who were originally sitting on the rostrum, also teleported to the viewing platform belonging to their own Academy.
“What are they trying to do?”
Lanza vaguely felt that something was not right, and an extremely terrifying guess arose in his mind.
“Mr. Smith!”
Before he could finish his words, Andrew had already shouted out in a cold voice.
“How dare you!”
In the next second, in the aftermath of the collision of magic, an extremely sharp spike that emitted an ominous aura grew out of Mensa’s body and charged straight towards Tim’s heart! There was no way to avoid it!
Fortunately, Andrew’s spiritual strength far surpassed his peers, so he discovered something was wrong in advance!
Tim looked at the black spike. It was about to reach his side, but he still could not react in time. His face was ashen, but in the next second, a palm that flickered with blazing flames suddenly stretched out from the air and grabbed the spike!
Then, Andrew squeezed it with all his might! The spell that was originally made of dark elements only lasted for less than half a second before it was crushed!
Instantly, the entire venue was shaken! The faces of the people from Faerun City were ashen, while the people from Rafax City were extremely excited!
“That was our Association’s Fellow making a move. The sneak attack was taken care of!”
“Was that a dark element spell just now? But it was destroyed by that Fellow in an instant. I’m afraid that his strength should be at least an advanced mage!”
Most of the people were only discussing with great interest. The experts present were truly shocked and in disbelief!
That was an advanced rare darkness spell. Moreover, it was a skill that focused on single-target bursts. It was extremely fast! Yet, it was destroyed by the mysterious Fellow of Rafax City with a basic and common intermediate spell, ‘flaming hand’!
To be able to do this so easily, it could only mean that the mysterious Fellow’s strength far surpassed that of Mensa, who was using a magic scroll!
At this moment, Nolan, who had already left the rostrum, snorted coldly.
“It’s not appropriate, Mr. Fellow. In the Academy’s Grand Competition, for an advanced mage like you to strike, isn’t that bullying?”
The President of the Association in Faerun City retorted first though they were the guilty ones.
Andrew’s attitude was very clear.
“Get lost!”
He was in a bad mood. If he hadn’t come to watch the competition, his son might have been killed by a sneak attack. The anger in his heart couldn’t be concealed.
On the other side, Lanza opened his mouth to question.
“Isn’t your Association’s way of doing things too extreme? In a competition between beginner mages, if you lose, so be it. But you sent an intermediate mage and even used a sneak attack. Now, even your President has stood up. Do you think that our Rafax City is easy to mess with?”
Nolan said coldly, “Previously, your President was only one step away from becoming a great mage. You also used this opportunity to apply for a lot of benefits at the Association Headquarters. Now that your President has disappeared for so long, it’s time to give us back those resources!”
“The resources for the winners of the Academy’s Grand Competition are just the beginning!”
Then, he looked in the direction of Andrew.
“Mr. Fellow, you seem to be a little stronger than that trash Lanza.”
“Do you want to have a match? If none of you can defeat me today, then don’t blame me for killing all these talents of your Academy for the benefit of the Faerun Mage Association!”
He said with murderous intent.
Lanza was so angry that his face turned pale.
“Don’t you have any sense of shame? The Fellow has just stepped into the advanced mage realm not long ago, and you have already stayed in this realm for decades. Are you being fair?”
The vice president’s eyes were burning with anger.
