Hank's entrance caused the entire venue to fall silent again. His ability to easily defeat the seven students from the Chaos Academy by himself had left a deep impression on everyone, and he was even more powerful than George. If he were to challenge Amy, what would the outcome be?
The young magic casters of the Magus Tower were also quite concerned. They were quite confident in Hank's abilities, but Amy's spell was simply too powerful. If any of them were in her place, they definitely wouldn't be able to withstand it.
George and Hank had combined forces to easily defeat the 14 people from the Chaos Academy. Even though it was a little boring for them to accompany George, they would at least be able to complete their mission.
However, an unfathomably powerful half-elf magic caster had suddenly appeared. She was only a four-year-old magic caster, and this had cast a veil of uncertainty over the direction of this match. If the Magus Tower were to lose this match in such a manner, they would have to endure the wrath of their teachers when they returned.
Hank was also feeling a little frustrated. As the team leader of this match, his ambition was to win all of the matches and humiliate Chaos School. However, he didn't think that his plan would be ruined by Amy.
Not only had George lost, but he had also lost in a very ugly manner. A 3rd-tier magic caster had been insta-killed by a four-year-old half-elf. If news of this were to spread, the reputation of their Magus Tower would most likely be severely tarnished.
As such, he had to avenge himself. Furthermore, he had come here to challenge Crassus' disciple in the first place. Prior to his departure, his master had told him that if he had the chance, he had to humiliate the Crassus. That was the most important thing for him to do on this trip.
Back in the day, the Magus Tower had once been divided into two factions over whether magic should be used in melee or long-range attacks. Following the departure of the Crassus from the Magus Tower, and the lack of melee magic inheritances, the conflict gradually died down.
However, his master, Brent, was the number one supporter of Great Elder Richard, and had always held a grudge against him. As such, he had specifically sent him here to avenge Amy.
Amy had already demonstrated her ability in magic. Even if Hank defeated her now, it wouldn't bring him any praise. Instead, it would make him seem like he was bullying the weak and had an unfair advantage.
However, if this competition could turn into a battle between melee magic and long-range magic, then as the only disciple of Crassus, it wouldn't be a problem for him to represent the melee magic team, while he would represent the Magus Tower. As Brent's disciple, if he could defeat Amy, then he would be able to claim that long-range magic was superior to melee magic.
As for the difference in age and strength, it was not important to the rumors. What was important was the result, the result of this challenge.
Everyone would only know that the disciple of the number one melee magic caster on the continent had lost to Brent's disciple, Hank. If Master were to hear this, he would definitely be very happy.
Hank's lips curled into a sinister smile. He looked at Amy like a wolf looking at a little lamb, contemplating where he should tear her apart with his sharp teeth.
"Melee magic? I'm super good too. " Amy looked at Hank with a confident expression. Then, she asked with a peculiar expression, "But do you really want to be bashed in the head by my big club, green-furred monster? If I bash you with my club, you're going to cry. "
Another burst of raucous cheers erupted from below the stage. Amy had given everyone so many surprises and hot-blooded emotions today.
Everyone had been wondering whether Amy would accept Hank's challenge. Even if she refused, no one would think much of it. After all, even Senior Claus and the other two seniors had been easily defeated by him. Having defeated George, Amy had already won a victory for Chaos School. Even if they lost today's challenge, at least it wouldn't be too embarrassing.
However, to everyone's surprise, Amy's reply was still as simple and crude as ever. Even though her tone was still as adorable as ever, her words were inexplicably quite domineering.
"As expected of my disciple. She's just like me. Magic is naturally the best at melee combat. If anyone refuses to submit to me, then I'll bash them with my club until they do." Crassus chortled with elation.
Aside from Julian, it had been many years since he had debated melee magic versus long-range magic with anyone else. He had initially felt that it was a pity that melee magic would decline again after him, but Amy's appearance had made up for that regret. At the very least, melee magic wouldn't decline in his hands.
As for just how powerful melee magic was, that had always been decided through battle. All of the magic casters who had been dominated by him in the past knew this, and all of the magic casters who would be dominated by Amy in the future would also know this.
"If it's melee magic … Could it be that she has learned melee magic in such a short time?" Abbott glanced at Crassus out of the corner of his eye, and a sense of foreboding suddenly welled up in his heart.
He didn't harbor any ill will toward Crassus. In fact, when he had first joined the Magus Tower, he had idolized Crassus the most. However, the Magus Tower was now under the control of Great Elder Richard, and he knew what the Great Elder and all of the other elders were thinking.
George's loss was already quite embarrassing for the Magus Tower. If Hank were to lose as well, then the Magus Tower's challenge match and their congratulations to Crassus would become nothing more than a joke. In fact, they could even become a stepping stone for Crassus' disciple.
"There shouldn't be any problems. Hank should be able to withstand that spell, and at a lower level, melee magic casters are at a complete disadvantage against long-range magic casters of the same level. It's not going to be easy for a melee magic caster to defend against all of the long-range magic casters' magic attacks. Hank's intermediate spell, Entanglement Vine, has always been the bane of melee magic casters. " Abbott quickly calmed himself down, and he also sighed with emotion as he looked at Amy on the stage. If such a prodigy didn't die prematurely, she would definitely leave a mark on the magic world of the Norland Continent.
"I hope you're not the one who's going to cry, little brat. I'm not going to go easy on you." Hank's green fur was standing on end as he glowered at Amy with a cold expression.
"Green fur monster, I hope you won't cry so loudly. You're so ugly, so you're going to be super scary when you cry. It's not going to be good if you scare the kids." Amy also looked at Hank with a serious expression.
"The 11th match of the challenge match, begin!" Karpas announced in a loud voice.
The two teachers were standing not far away from each other, and the female teacher standing close to Amy was only around two meters away from her, looking as if she were ready to attack at any moment.
"Little brat, you're a melee magic caster, yet you're only using such a small wand?" Hank wasn't in a hurry to attack. Instead, he looked at the wand in Amy's hand, and sneered, "Don't tell me you don't even have a staff? Is Master Crassus that poor? What kind of melee magic caster are you? "
"In my name, I unseal this wand. Wishful Wand, transform!"
Amy chanted with a serious expression. Purple light flashed from the purple crystal on the wand, and a purple staff that was around two meters in length appeared in her hand.
Purple and golden vines surrounded a fist-sized purple crystal ball, and purple and golden light was shimmering within the crystal ball, creating an extremely dazzling sight.
"Windfire Wheels, appear!"
Amy yelled as she gripped her staff with both hands. Two balls of flames suddenly appeared beneath her feet, rising up to around 20 centimeters into the air before rapidly rotating like a pair of fiery wheels.
