When Baiyi explained to the enthusiastic crowd who were worried about him what was going on, everyone wanted to strangle the irresponsible officer to death. However, he had probably expected such an outcome and slipped away in advance …
That afternoon, a piece of news titled 'Breaking News! The Association's Senior Vice President Duels with the Church. Why Did You Become a Red Soul Armature? ' The report began to spread within the Sorcerers Association. Every Sorcerer who was attracted by the title and read the content wanted to beat the anonymous author to death …
In any case, news of Baiyi and Vice President Grant's upcoming teaching-style duel spread like wildfire. The author, who did not wish to be named, did his best to spread the news to the rest of the world. Most sorcerers, including representatives from other associations, and even members of the public, decided to go and watch the teaching-style duel that would take place in three days. The betting machines were quickly set up, and the bets kept pouring in.
Baiyi, on the other hand, sat alone in his room, trying to figure out how to fight the duel. He had already given Aya and the hammerhead shark plushie the task of teaching the duel.
Truth be told, this duel was not going to be easy. Even if it was just for show, it was not going to be easy. Although he would not lose his life, he would lose face, which was sometimes more important than his life. This was especially true during a period where he needed to save face. After all, his opponent was a Holy-level fighter, and one who had been a Holy-level fighter for many years! Although Baiyi's current experience level was not going to be a problem, he still had to deal with the problem of limiting his power output.
More importantly, this was a public duel, so he could not take off his cloak and transform into a Black Glutinous Rice Ball. He could not even use martial arts or assassination techniques. Fighting a Holy-level fighter as a sorcerer would be a huge challenge, even for Baiyi. Moreover, other than his armor and the Saint Quartz Staff, he did not have any other equipment on him. Even if equipment did not make much of a difference in a high-level duel, he still could not fight naked, could he?
His power output was insufficient, his equipment was insufficient, and he did not have the home field advantage. The only advantage he had was his unlimited mana. However, this advantage was negligible in a high-level duel. Overall, Baiyi was at an overwhelming disadvantage. His opponent was not someone who could be defeated with techniques alone. At this point, both sides had to fight with raw power, and Baiyi's biggest weakness was his lack of power output.
In this environment, high-level duels between sorcerers were not like the one between Mia and Vidomina, where both sorcerers stood still and fought turn-based battles. In fact, neither sorcerer would fight on the ground. Other than formations and fortifications, or other sorcerers, both of them fought in the air.
When the duel began, the sorcerers flew up and down like modern fighter jets, performing all kinds of extreme maneuvers. Colorful spells were fired at each other, and the scene was even more exciting than a battle between two sorcerer girls. It felt like a has-been bullet comment game.
As for why it was like this, it was not entirely because the combat on the ground was too lame. The main reason was that when the battle reached a high level, both sorcerers' spells were extremely powerful. If one was not forced to, one would not be able to block the opponent's spells head-on. Under normal circumstances, the energy shield on one's equipment could only block one or two spells, but it was like an eggshell in a battle where the frequency of spells was extremely high. If one were to use one's own mana shield to block the spells, it would consume a lot of energy, and it would also be very passive, making it even more undesirable. If one wanted to block the spells head-on, one would have to rely on the corresponding elemental shield. However, there were all kinds of high-level sorcerers that were specially designed for one-on-one sorcerers would usually come with other elemental attributes, or additional effects such as Silence, Deceleration, Blindness, and so on.
Therefore, when one reached this level, one would have to either dodge or use one's own spell to block the opponent's spell. At the same time, one would also have to use one's psychic energy to disrupt the opponent's spell and disrupt the opponent's psychic energy tracking. However, no matter what, one's high mobility was indispensable. Flying in the air was always faster than running on the ground, and one could also avoid all kinds of sneaky tricks that would suddenly pop up from the ground.
In short, battles between sorcerers were always thrilling and exciting. Just like Contra, a single mistake could result in the loss of one's life. Therefore, sorcerers preferred to fight in small teams or groups with the help of others.
After all, sorcerers were sorcerers, not magicians. Two ice spears would not be able to kill other classes, of course, except for shamans.
"This is a little troublesome …" Baiyi lamented in the Void. Then, he turned to the Archmage and asked, "Do you know where the Book of Servitude is? I might need to borrow it for a while. "
"Do you know why I didn't tell you earlier? I was going to pass it on to you anyway, "the Archmage said helplessly. The Archmage said helplessly. The situation was very disadvantageous to his beloved apprentice, and he couldn't think of any good ideas.
"Let's just use my stuff to fight. The traditional sorcerers' stuff isn't very reliable," the Sorcerer Walker suggested.
"Of course we'll use it, but I'm afraid it won't be enough," Baiyi replied. "This isn't something that can be solved with a good fight. No matter what, I still want to win, and I need a victory like this to pave the way for the future."
"Why don't we go get my Great Sage's Scepter? If I'm not mistaken, it should still be in the Doors of Conundrum. I'm sure it has a new owner, but you're still a member of the Doors, so it shouldn't be a problem for you to borrow it, "the Scholar Walker suggested.
"The Great Sage's Scepter's specialty is its super high mana regeneration rate, but most of its other effects are used in battle. It's pointless for me," Baiyi said helplessly. The Scholar Walker's weapon was not compatible with his current one.
"Why don't you try enslaving a demon?" The Devil suggested. "There are a few special species that can restrain sorcerers. If we can capture them, it'll be a big help!"
'That's a good idea.' However, summoning a demon was out of the question, so he could consider summoning an animal or a plant elemental spirit. The Soul Armature Practitioner was an expert in this field, so Baiyi would need his professional advice. However, he was still teaching the children.
'How's the class going? With the Soul Armature Practitioner's professionalism, it shouldn't be a problem, right? ' Baiyi thought to himself.
Baiyi left the room and headed towards the classroom, intending to eavesdrop on the Soul Armature Practitioner's lecture. Just as he approached the classroom, he heard the robotic, neutral voice of the hammerhead shark plushie ringing out from the classroom, "Mia, answer this question. What will happen after the evolution of Giganotte?"
"Eh? This … this … this Armored Chrysalis? "Little Mia's adorable voice rang out.
Is that evolution? More like evolution, right? Also, wasn't there a lesson about deep meditation? Why is there such a question?
"Wrong answer! The Giganotome can't evolve! This question is a trap! " The hammerhead shark plushie said wickedly. "Next question. What is the evolution of the Giant Wasp? Nota, you answer this question. "
"Eh? This is … the Queen Wasp? "Nota's soft voice sounded forced.
"Wrong answer. The correct answer is the Mega Wasp …"
'Are you sure that's evolution? And what the hell are you teaching the students about?! Even if it's a biology lesson, where did these little beasts come from? Is this your professionalism? You're training my adorable students to become little beast trainers? Baiyi could not take it anymore. He rushed into the classroom, grabbed the hammerhead shark plushie in his hand, and retracted his consciousness from the Soul Armature Practitioner's body.
"Why can't these creatures exist?! There are countless realms in this world, and what humans have explored is only a tiny fraction of them. Who can say for sure that these mysterious creatures don't exist in those unexplored realms? "The Soul Armature Practitioner argued.
"As for the deep meditation that you requested, I've already taught it. This is an additional class that I added after asking for their opinion," the Soul Armature Practitioner said.
The so-called deep meditation was actually a special method of meditation that could replace sleep. It could effectively increase the total amount of mana in a student's body. Unlike ordinary meditation, which required a special sleeping posture, deep meditation was a true replacement for sleep. It required the student to constantly think about the knowledge they already had in their mind, repeatedly studying it in order to improve. This was a special method of meditation that could only be used after mastering a certain degree of theoretical knowledge.
Without sufficient knowledge, deep meditation would only turn into deep hypnosis, and the student would simply fall asleep after thinking about it. This was one of the reasons why Baiyi had been teaching so many theories to the students.
After all, to sorcerers in this world, knowledge was magic, and knowledge was power. Even for a brawny sorcerer like the Sorcerer Walker, his academic level was quite high.
After leaving some homework for the students, Baiyi returned to his room and discussed his idea with the Soul Armature Practitioner. "Look at this idea. Do you have any suggestions?"
"If we can bring our summons into battle, I know of some special summons that can assist in defense or enhance mana," the Soul Armature Practitioner replied after a moment of thought.
"If you dare to say any weird names, I'll Silence you for a day!" Baiyi threatened fiercely.
"Why would I? Do I look like an unprofessional person to you? Actually, that student of yours, Nota, is a very good summon. Fairies are great companions for sorcerers. They can amplify mana, and they can also assist you in casting spells, "the Soul Armature Practitioner said." Why don't you just bring Nota into battle? You don't even have to summon her. "
