"Are you sure you don't want to tell me the truth, fatso? Believe it or not, I'll peel off your pigskin and fry you into a roast suckling pig! "
In a dark room, a woman was holding a chair, and she slammed it viciously into the kneeling fatso, instantly pulverizing the chair into pieces.
The fatso huddled up in a corner with his arms wrapped around his head, and his voice trembled as he said, "P-Princess, please spare me. I really don't know what you're talking about. Our Magus Tower really had nothing to do with what happened back then. Besides, roast pigs aren't supposed to be cooked like that …"
"You're still trying to argue with me? I said it was done like that, so that's what he did! " A chair suddenly appeared in the woman's hand, and she slammed it viciously into the fatso's body.
…
Elliot had been knocked unconscious, and even Richard had been threatened. All of the magic casters at the entrance of the Magus Tower fell silent upon hearing Crassus' words.
After all, Krassu was no longer a member of the Magus Tower, and his purpose in coming here was to embarrass the Magus Tower. This was a slap to the Magus Tower's face. As a member of the Magus Tower, everyone naturally began to sympathize with Krassu and stood on the Magus Tower's side.
"Master Krassu, are you saying that the half-elf girl and Kola should have a tower charging duel?"
"Kola is the last disciple of the president, and he's already reached the 5th-tier at the age of 12. He's been praised as the most prodigious magic caster in the history of the Magus Tower, and his opponent is the elven princess."
"Not only is Brother Kola the youngest magic caster to reach the fifth level of the tower, he's also the fastest among all of the 5th-tier magic casters. This little girl has only been learning magic for two months; how could she possibly reach the fifth level of the tower?"
All of the magic casters were discussing quietly among themselves. Even though they had heard many rumors about Amy's prodigy, none of the magic casters present believed that an adorable little girl like her could reach the fifth level of the tower.
It wasn't easy to become a magic caster, and many magic casters were unable to reach the intermediate magic caster level in their entire lives. Aside from the most exceptional young prodigies, magic casters who could enter the Magus Tower had to be at least a 4th-tier magic caster.
Even so, many mages who came to the Mage Tower still found it difficult to advance to level-five even after a long time. The Ability Bestowment was a hurdle that stopped many people. Apart from those who were talented, those who were able to cross it were all people who could persevere.
Kola had been cultivating for six years, and at the age of 12, he had successfully attained the ability bestowment mastery. He was already hailed as the number one prodigy in the Magus Tower, and he was far superior to Hank and George.
If Amy could successfully endow magic after only two or three months of magic, then what kind of terrifying talent was that? It was enough to shock the ancient and dazzle the modern.
After being threatened by Crassus in front of so many magic casters, Richard's expression was obviously a little ugly, but he didn't lose control. He glanced at Amy, then at Crassus, and sneered, "You've only accepted her as your disciple for two months. How can she compare to my disciple?"
"I wonder whose granddisciple was beaten to tears." Crassus pursed his lips as he pulled out a blue crystal with a smile. "I'll bet this Water Spirit Bead that my disciple will win. If she loses, then you can have the Water Spirit Bead, but if your disciple loses, then the Fire Spirit Lotus in your hand will be mine."
Richard's eyes immediately lit up at the sight of the Water Spirit Bead in Crassus' hand. He looked at Crassus, then at Amy, and hesitated momentarily before nodding. "Alright, it's a deal."
"It's a deal." Crassus stowed away the Water Spirit Bead as a sly smile appeared on his face.
"Is Amy already a 5th-tier magic caster?" Meg was also a little perplexed. He had been busy with all of the work related to the steam engine, so he hadn't been paying enough attention to Amy.
Both the Water Spirit Bead and the Fire Spirit Lotus were precious treasures of heaven and earth. The Water Spirit Bead was a treasure that could mend one's soul and enhance one's spiritual power for water-type magic casters.
The Fire Spirit Lotus, on the other hand, had a special effect. If a fire-type magic caster were to consume it, they could develop some mutated abilities. The effects varied from person to person. Some people would only learn a low-level fire-type spell, while others would gain some fire-type talents, such as enhancing the corrosiveness of their spells.
Such a bet was undoubtedly a huge gamble.
However, Meg didn't think that Crassus was an idiot. No one knew the situation of the Magus Tower better than he did. It was impossible for Crassus to not have any confidence in the outcome after traveling so far to Rodu.
Everyone entered the hall on the first floor of the Magus Tower. It was a spacious hall that was three to four meters tall and as big as a football field.
News of the battle between Crassus and Richard's disciple quickly spread throughout the entire Magus Tower. Many magic casters rushed to the first floor to witness this battle between two prodigies. Or rather, it could be said that it was a battle between the new and old masters of the Magus Tower, Richard and Crassus.
The Magus Tower Challenge was a competition that Crassus had set up in order to nurture the wolf-like nature of magic casters. Not only could it test the power of magic casters, but it could also effectively rank them based on the number of floors they reached and the time they took to reach the tower. There was no need to go through a lot of trouble to compete against each other.
Crassus had always believed that magic casters should beat themselves the most. As long as a magic caster could continue to improve themselves, they would definitely become exceptional magic casters.
Of course, there would only be more motivation if there were other magic casters to beat them. This was also why he had used magic to monitor the entire tower challenge process in real time and record the time taken.
This system had been in place for several decades, and it constantly spurred the magic casters of the Magus Tower to improve. If the time taken was extended beyond a certain point, they would be expelled from the Magus Tower.
This was most likely the reason why the Magus Tower was able to maintain its reputation as the holy land of magic casters.
The Magus Tower was nine floors tall, and there were also a total of nine levels. Each level corresponded to the limit of one's power level, and the higher one went, the more difficult it would be, and the more time it would take.
"Master, may I ask why you've called Kola here?"
A young man in a white robe strode into the crowd before cupping his fist in a respectful salute toward Richard.
"Kola, I want you to compete with Crassus' disciple in a tower challenge. You have to reach the fifth floor as quickly as possible and let them know that our Magus Tower is not to be underestimated." Richard looked at Kola with a smug expression as he chuckled coldly.
"Yes." Kola nodded with a calm expression that was completely uncharacteristic of his young age, and he was looking at Amy with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
"Little Amy, it's time for you to shine." Crassus turned to Amy with a smile.
