The old fortress was located in a place Mofan was quite familiar with. It had a bunch of reefs growing out of the sea like bamboo shoots. They were formed by the golden dust of the reefs that had accumulated over a long period of time due to a special whirlpool.
Fanxue Mountain had recently acquired an island made of golden reefs. The island had tripled Fanxue Mountain's finances. It was one of the main sources of income for Fanxue Mountain. As a matter of fact, the sea close to Feiniao City had similar golden reefs. They were formed by the golden dust in the sea. Those that had existed for a long time would turn into golden reefs, while those that did not show up above the water would turn into bamboo shoots.
The bamboo shoots were the main foundation of the buildings in the old fortress. Otherwise, the buildings that were meant for Mages would not be able to stand on the surface of the sea.
At the place where the old war city faced the sea, there was actually a very large floating reef schist. It was as big as three international football stadiums. When the tide was low, this floating reef schist would expose its flat back to the sea. From afar, it looked like a dark brown square floating on the sea. When the sea level rose, the entire floating reef schist would be submerged in the water. Interestingly, people could still stand on the floating reef schist. The highest level of the sea level was probably knee-high.
The people of Feiniao Base City called this place the "Floating Reefs Hunting Ground". With the special terrain of the reefs, many Sorcerers who were not familiar with water were able to compete with the brutal sea demons.
The Flying Bird Battle City was actually built around this submerged reef hunting ground, using the submerged reef bamboo shoots around it to build other battle structures.
The duel between Mofan and Zu Xiangtian was going to take place on the Floating Reef Hunting Ground.
Not only was the reef rich in Earth Magic, it also contained a lot of Reef Gold. Even a Ruler-level creature would struggle to crush it.
The terrain was extremely important when fighting against sea monsters. The Vice Mayor was using the duel to attract more Mages to Feiniao City to hunt sea monsters. He was not going to let go of the chance to advertise his city with Mofan and Zu Xiangtian!
"As a witness, I hope that the two young and promising magicians can make friends with each other through martial arts." The deputy mayor began his speech.
Unfortunately, the Mages from all over the world did not give face to the Deputy Mayor. They had been waiting for a day and a night, and now there was a boring opening speech from a leader. It was simply asking for a revolt.
The deputy mayor also realized that people did not want to listen to his nonsense at all. He coughed a few times awkwardly and said, "Then, would the two contestants please say a few words?"
Zu Xiangtian was already standing on the Floating Reef Hunting Ground. His eyes were full of mockery.
"Mofan, do you know that you really look like a dog?" When Zu Xiangtian saw that Mofan didn't retort, he continued with a smile, "Many ferocious-looking wild dogs are just like you. They bark very loudly at the beginning, regardless of whether it's a bear, tiger, or lion. However, when faced with a real threat, they run away faster than anyone else. I really feel embarrassed for you. I don't know if you still have the guts to come today. "
"Zu Xiangtian, I just didn't expect you to make it so grand. "Did you know there was a duel behind closed doors in ancient times? Our Fanxue Mountain likes to have duels behind closed doors, too. It's mainly because we have to show our gentlemanly side, so the challengers won't be humiliated when they leave." There are too many people who want to challenge me. I can easily meet five people like you when I go out for a bowl of noodles. It's normal that I can't remember who you are and the time. "Mofan dug his ears. He had splashed some water into them.
"Did you forget the time?" Zu Xiangtian asked.
"Yeah, the only thing that caught my attention about you is how good you are at pretending. I won't be satisfied if I don't step on your powdered face a few times and leave my shoe size on it. That's why I suddenly remembered it when I was having some candy in the morning," said Mo Fan.
"I didn't apply any powder!" Zu Xiangtian said coldly.
"Oh, then you must be suffering from kidney deficiency. Why is your face so pale …?" Mofan said.
Zu Xiangtian's face turned even paler.
You are the one suffering from kidney deficiency, your whole family is suffering from kidney deficiency!
Mofan was bold enough to say anything, regardless of the occasion.
The Vice Mayor had asked the two of them to express their thoughts as the strongest young Mages to motivate the younger generation. To his surprise, the two of them ended up arguing with each other, and even claimed that they were suffering from kidney deficiency!
(Cough cough) "Gentlemen, your voices are amplified. Can't you say something more positive? After all, even the International Magic Association is interested in your duel," the Vice Mayor reminded them softly with a dark face.
"I see," Mofan finally realized he was standing in front of the public.
"Mofan, you have done so many shameless things, yet you still claim to be the strongest Mage in the country. I believe it's the end for you today!" Zu Xiangtian pointed at Mofan and brought out the script he had prepared beforehand.
Zu Xiangtian had spent a lot of effort to smear Mofan's reputation. The crowd enjoyed watching a good show, so Zu Xiangtian claimed that he was going to punish the shameless, hypocritical, and fake Mage.
"Some people just like to use my name to do things that I didn't do. I've done a lot of things and proven myself, yet many of you don't believe me. To be honest, I'm a little tired after all these years, "Mofan said.
"A little tired? What do you mean? Is Mofan going to withdraw from the public eye?"
"Is he going to live in seclusion?"
"Wow, don't do that, Brother Mofan, I like you the most. I've been working so hard for you. I'm only five hundred points away from the Pearl Institute!" a girl in a student outfit screamed.
"Mofan, you are the savior of the Beijiang Country and the Ancient Capital. No matter how many people are jealous of you and slandering you, we will always believe in you!"
The crowd was in an uproar. They were mainly divided into three factions.
One faction was made up of the people who had followed Zu Xiangtian's lead when he impersonated Mofan. The other faction was made up of the people of the Beijiang Country and the Ancient Capital who were sincerely grateful that Mofan had taken on the Black Vatican. The last faction was made up of bystanders. They had no idea who the good guys were, and who the bad guys were. They would support whichever side was more lively.
"Mofan, we believe in you!"
