Grant, who had a suave and confident attitude just a moment ago, immediately looked a little embarrassed and dumbfounded after being hit by this sneak attack. In the midst of the panic, the domineering fire phoenix also disappeared into the air due to losing its follow-up guidance. The sky once again recovered its azure color. After the two of them pulled a certain distance away from each other, they restrained themselves and did not continue to attack. It seemed that both of them seemed to have realized that the nature of this duel had changed a little.
Grant had no idea how Baiyi had suddenly appeared behind him. Even if Baiyi had used a spatial spell to teleport, he had seen it with his own eyes. Baiyi had cast an Elemental Shield, and his psychic energy had been locked onto the Soul Armature. If Grant had tried to use a teleportation spell, Baiyi would have noticed it and interrupted it. Grant had no reason to dodge the spell.
Grant, however, was in a difficult position. He looked down at his robe, which had lost its luster, and realized that it had been used to block Baiyi's staff strike. His most important protective gear had been destroyed. Grant was shocked. Was his opponent really that strong? Was he really that strong?
Should he continue? Or should he call it a draw? Grant hesitated. Although the luxurious equipment on his body had helped him block Baiyi's attack, he did not dare to be careless. He was not sure if it was just an illusion, but he suddenly realized that Baiyi had deliberately held back. Otherwise, that unexpected attack just now could have killed him.
His judgment was not wrong. Baiyi had held back because he had sensed Grant's intention to forcefully interrupt the spell. This meant that Grant did not want to kill him, and it was not convenient for Baiyi to kill him and offend the Sorcerer's Association.
But what method did Baiyi use? Perhaps there was only one person who could think of it.
"Why didn't Vice President Grant interrupt Master Hope's teleportation spell? It was easily dodged, and he even counterattacked … "A member of the audience from the advanced class asked with the same question.
"Could it be that the Wings of Flame consumed too much energy, and he could not spare any energy to interrupt his opponent's teleportation?" Another person speculated.
"Isn't this a low-level mistake that only an inexperienced sorcerer would make? How could President Grant make such a mistake? Impossible! The opponent must have used some special technique … "Someone immediately retorted. Just like what he said, it was impossible not to guard against the opponent's use of Space Teleportation when releasing such a powerful magic. Grant had no reason to make such a mistake.
While the audience was discussing what had happened, Baiyi's students were the only ones who seemed to stand out from the crowd. Mia patted her flat chest and said in relief, "That really scared me to death …" Her other hand, which was holding Laeticia's, was already sweating from nervousness and worry.
She did not care what kind of tricks Baiyi had used. After all, her Mr. Hope was very powerful.
On the other side, Tisdale also breathed a huge sigh of relief. With a gratified smile, she said, "As expected of Teacher! He won't be defeated by such a trick!" As she said that, she lowered her voice again. "But … How did Teacher dodge his opponent's attack? Did any of you see clearly? "
"He used the War God's Sword," Attie whispered into Tisdale's ear.
A look of relief appeared on Tisdale's face. Her teacher's equipment was not inferior to his opponent's, after all.
The War God's Sword was a divine weapon bestowed by a real god, so its power would not be hindered by a Holy-level sorcerer. In fact, as long as Baiyi had the sword with him, he would not be in any danger. Even if he could not win, he could still escape.
This was one of the reasons why Baiyi was so confident.
"Do you want to continue? Or do you want to talk about something more textbook? " Baiyi asked in a friendly manner as he looked at the Vice President, who was no longer as calm as before. At the same time, Baiyi reminded the Vice President of the nature of the duel, hinting that he should not risk his life anymore. After all, Baiyi was more than capable of taking his life.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Grant's face, but he quickly regained his composure. He replied, "Master Hope's power is indeed extraordinary. I would like to have more exchanges with you. Of course, I would like to do so in a more appropriate way."
It seemed that the Vice President also knew that he would not be able to gain the upper hand if he were to fight to the death. His plan of using a killer move to intimidate the Vice President and show off his mastery of magic had gone down the drain.
Thus, the second round of the duel began. This time, the duel was much more normal. The two of them were like the most conventional sorcerers. They danced in the air at high speed, shooting all sorts of light orbs, light orbs, and halos at each other. Both of them were relatively conservative in their attacks, focusing on self-preservation instead of counterattacking as they had done before.
Truth be told, this kind of light-polluting fighting style was much cooler. At least, in the eyes of those who did not know much about the duel, it was much more exciting than the first round. At the very least, the lighting effects and visual effects could be given full marks.
However, in the eyes of those who knew about the duel, such as the sorcerers in the advanced course, the duel had become a performance. In reality, a real duel between two high-level sorcerers would not be as flashy as the audience imagined. Instead, it would be more like the first round of the duel, where the first round of the duel was just to test the waters and then unleash a killer move. Therefore, to the high-end audience, the best part of the duel was already over.
However, the rest of the duel was not entirely boring. After entering a more leisurely pace, Grant managed to gain the upper hand with his higher mana output and better equipment. He successfully suppressed Baiyi, forcing him to defend passively.
"Tsk, after entering this mode, the Holy-level suppression effect becomes more apparent. Be it in terms of mana capacity or spellcasting speed, the Vice President has the upper hand. Now, it's all just a contest of attributes. How boring. That Hope has no chance of winning. What a shame … But at least my bet is safe," one of the advanced students commented, feeling sorry for Baiyi.
"I don't think so, do you? Hope may have been suppressed, but his defense is really good. President Grant had the upper hand, but he still couldn't take him down. Who knows, maybe he has some other tricks up his sleeves? "Another student retorted.
At that moment, Baiyi's students could not help but feel nervous again. Little Mia, seeing that Baiyi was in a disadvantageous position, was so anxious that she was sweating profusely. She squeezed Laeticia's hand so hard that she could not pull it out. The village girl could only gently caress the back of Mia's hand and comfort her. "Don't worry. You have to believe in Mr. Hope."
"He … He probably doesn't want me to feel too bad …" Little Mia said, blaming herself. At that moment, the extra-large octuplet twin crystals beside her had turned from transparent white to blue. The blue was so full that it looked like it was about to burst through the crystal walls. It was obvious that the crystal had reached its limit. The owl-brand dress, which had transformed into clothes to help Little Mia bear some of the pressure, trembled from time to time, indicating that it too was powerless.
Level suppression was, after all, an overpowered opponent, especially in a battle of attributes. However, Baiyi did not seem worried. Instead, he sighed and said, "Tsk tsk, he prepared an Expansion Formation and even asked the owl-brand to help him, but he's still completely suppressed. This guy is really something, isn't he?"
Sometimes, low-level powers like mana are really troublesome to use … Baiyi filled in his heart and asked Nota, who was inside the helmet, "Are you afraid?"
As soon as the question left his lips, a shower of fiery meteors had already engulfed him. The fiery meteors were like a giant net that wrapped tightly around Baiyi. He quickly dodged them and spun his Saint Quartz Staff to deflect the fragments of the fiery meteors that he could not avoid. At the same time, he used his psychic energy to interfere with his opponent's Deceleration and Imprisonment spells. Then, he chose the most logical route and successfully escaped the fiery meteors.
Nota was inside his helmet, sharing his vision. To the little girl, the whole process was thrilling and exciting. There were a few times when she thought she was in a nightmare, especially when she saw the fiery meteors brush past her. She could not help but scream at the top of her lungs.
The girl's shrill voice drifted into Grant's ears, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. The magic in his hand also paused, and he muttered to himself in bewilderment, "What's that sound? Why does it sound like a girl's voice? Don't tell me Master Hope's real identity is a girl? "
'Chance! ' Baiyi seized the opportunity and launched his counterattack in the blink of an eye.
To be honest, it was not entirely impossible. The only thing that could determine the gender of a Soul Armature was the voice, and the voice was something that could be changed with Magic. So, if Baiyi really wanted to change into a female armor and a female voice, it would be totally possible for him to transform into a crossdressing boss, at least in terms of technology.
However, he definitely wouldn't do that. Nota's sudden scream was not part of his plan. He wasn't that despicable. It was just that Nota usually spoke in a soft voice, like a mosquito. He didn't expect her to scream so loudly after being startled, revealing her flaws.
However, since his opponent had also revealed a flaw, Baiyi could not let it go. While he was attacking his opponent with spells, Baiyi used a Tranquilizer Spell on himself to calm Nota down.
