The yellow-robed man tapped his fingers impatiently.
He had been dragged to the magic arena by his good friend, the man in gray, and became a spectator.
The old and inflexible sage simply could not understand the fun of the card game that the dwarves played. That was why the man in yellow refused before he came, and even claimed that lending the academy's magic arena to the dwarves to play card games would only lower the academy's reputation.
However, after arriving at the venue, the man in yellow realized that he had made a mistake in his judgment. The match was unexpectedly … very popular.
The magic arena that could accommodate more than 5,000 people was almost full. Most of the spectators were apprentices and mentors from the four advanced magic academies, and some of the seats were occupied by a group of dwarves.
The man in yellow would only see such a grand occasion when the four academies jointly held a certain competition.
And now, the spectators were not here for the exciting magic duel, but to watch a group of people "play a game."
What was even more unreasonable was that the apprentices and mentors of the four advanced magic academies had not stopped cheering since the beginning!
The man in yellow looked at the arena that should have been reserved for a group of elite spellcasters, but it was occupied by a bunch of strange things.
"I serve the King of Fire Demons!"
Along with the voice that resounded throughout the arena, a creature that looked like a red snake appeared in the arena. The ferocious scales on its body and the overflowing flames around its body were destined to be a thorny problem for adventurers no matter where they encountered this monster.
The controller behind the fire demon, the female spellcaster named Jaina, condensed frost in her hand. As light blue inscriptions flashed, a sharp arrow made of frost shot out from the inscriptions and hit a giant bear that was lying on the ground.
The arrow made of frost attached to the giant bear's body. Before the giant bear could even roar, its body was gradually frozen into frost and turned into powder.
The fire demon seemed to have been summoned as well. It raised the dark green staff in its hand and spat out two fireballs, hitting a giant treant.
The treant was ignited by the flames, and its remaining HP was devoured by the flames. Its body also turned into dust and dissipated on the stage.
"Why are those monsters just standing there? Doesn't that giant bear know how to snatch those spells?! "
The yellow-robed man watched the battle below quietly. He could not help but ask a Spell Caster attendant beside him.
He had to admit that this' card game 'was indeed very thrilling.
After all, not everyone could witness a battle between a massive Treant and a group of creatures born from lava!
However, to the yellow-robed man, this battle was too … strange. It was always one side attacking first before the other side attacked.
The creatures summoned by both sides looked extremely powerful, but they didn't know how to dodge at all.
Moreover, the towering treant was burned to ashes by the two fireballs released by the fire demon.
Unreasonable … this was too unreasonable!
"Because this is a card game. Sir Mentor, if you don't understand, you can look at the screen over there. It shows the original battle situation."
Before the Spell Caster attendant beside the yellow-robed man could explain, a young girl standing by the window in the VIP seats explained to the yellow-robed man.
Her name was Sophina Karshilov, the only apprentice recognized by the yellow-robed man. She was also the top student of the yellow-robed man's academy. Her talent in thunder magic could be said to be the best in all of Noland.
And this future 'yellow-robed man' was now lying by the window without a care for her image, staring at the 'ridiculous' battle below with wide eyes.
"Ah!! Golden Professor Bang Bang! "
In an instant, when the grey-robed man summoned a goblin, the yellow-robed man's proud apprentice, Sophina, was so excited that her cheeks were almost glued to the window!
In the past, when the yellow-robed man gave Sophina a legendary staff passed down from ancient times, she had never been so excited!
Wasn't it just a goblin? The yellow-robed man looked around and found that most of the apprentices were gasping in surprise.
The goblin was much larger than normal goblins, and its attire made it look like a powerful magicite engineer.
"What's so amazing about a goblin?" The yellow-robed man couldn't stand his student's excitement.
"Mentor! That's the strongest orange card in Hearthstone! Golden Professor Bang Bang can't be bought on the market at all. If one appears, it'll cost at least four thousand gold coins, "she said.
So … expensive?
At the yellow-robed man's level, he no longer had any interest in money, but just a game card, a virtual thing made of inscriptions, could be sold for such a high price.
Even the yellow-robed man found it unbelievable!
"That's great, that's great! I want one too. "Sophina's cheek was pressed against the glass, her expression filled with desire.
Seeing his apprentice so embarrassed, the yellow-robed man was about to ask her to sit in his seat and pay attention to her status.
The goblin in the arena didn't even stand for ten seconds.
"I've found my prey!"
A dwarf suddenly appeared on the side of the sorcerer's followers. The moment he appeared, he raised the gun in his hand and killed the goblin with the title of "strongest follower."
"So there's an ace hunter." Sophia seemed to have guessed it long ago.
On the other hand, the yellow-robed man was confused.
The situation in the arena changed once again. The Fire Demon suddenly charged at the hero of the opponent's camp and swept the opponent's hero with its long, spiky tail accompanied by flames.
The moment the fire demon finished its attack, the sorcerer Jaina's hand once again appeared with icy blue inscriptions, and a frost arrow shot toward the big druid.
Just like the giant bear, the druid was frozen into ice. The moment Jaina released the spell, the fire demon resonated with it. The staff in the fire demon's hand released two more fireballs. They spun in the air for a moment, and suddenly shot toward a sphere-shaped magic-guided machine in front of the druid.
The yellow-robed man remembered that the two strange magic-guided machines were summoned by Dr. Bang Bang. After being hit by the fireball, one of the magic-guided machines seemed to be ignited. Its body emitted a scorching light, and it leaped on the spot toward the sorcerer Jaina.
Following the explosion, a large amount of dust was lifted. The yellow-robed man heard his apprentice holding her breath.
He vaguely remembered that the sorcerer Jaina was already in an extremely weak state. In the words of his apprentice, she only had 3 HP left. Any attack could kill her.
Therefore, the yellow-robed man didn't think a weak sorcerer could withstand an explosion of this level.
But when the dust dissipated, Jaina was half-kneeling on the ground. But she wasn't dead!
Not only did she not die, but her left hand also bloomed with dark red inscriptions, and her right hand was also surrounded by icy blue inscriptions.
It's coming! The yellow-robed man recognized what the inscriptions were constructing. It was a powerful fire spell.
In the next second, a huge fireball was released from the sorcerer's hand. It drew a beautiful arc on the arena and hit the Druid.
The ice on the Druid did not dissipate with the fireball. Jaina's right hand also released the spell constructed — it was an icicle!
The sharp icicle pierced the frozen Druid, and cracks appeared on the surface of the ice. Finally, the four fireballs released by the fire demon all hit the Druid.
The Druid who had been turned into an ice sculpture shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.
"The winner of the first match has been decided, and it's Miss Dorothy!"
As the announcement of the winner resounded throughout the arena, the entire audience burst into cheers like a tide.
Even the yellow-robed man's chief apprentice joined in the cheers.
"Sophia, you should think that this illusory match is too ridiculous!" The yellow-robed man couldn't accept the battle scene of "standing there and letting others hit".
But his apprentice seemed to think of something after being reminded by the yellow-robed man.
"Illusion? That's right! Master … I want to learn illusion magic! " Sophia leaned against the glass and looked down at the sorcerer who had raised his staff and received everyone's congratulations.
"You … This kind of battle doesn't conform to reality at all!" The yellow-robed man was speechless for a moment, but he quickly tried to correct his student's thinking.
