Volume 1 Treading the Snow Without a Trace Chapter 28 The Freshman Contest Begins
The reason why Astor School of Magic can become the cradle of magicians in the entire Canglan Continent is that in addition to its own strong faculty and excellent students, there is also a reasonable incentive system, and the freshman competition is one of the most important ones, the freshman competition is limited to freshmen who have been enrolled for one year, usually held at the end of the semester, it adopts the model of the academy, and the competition between the various colleges is to determine the winner, and the winner can not only get a generous bonus, but also have the opportunity to get the strong man of the academy, the teaching of the Magister, obviously, the Magister teaching is not very attractive to Xue Wuxian and a few people, but for most of the studentsIt was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so everyone was ready to shine on the freshman competition and embark on a new path.
At the end of the day, Wizard Ciri and Coach Buck came to the classroom at the same time, and Wizard Ciri said to the students in the classroom: "I think everyone has heard that the annual freshman competition is about to begin, and our magic warrior class will also send players to participate in the competition. ”
Payne was already familiar with Xue Wuji, he turned his head to Xue Wuxian who was dozing off and said, "Wuji, I heard that the winner of this competition has a reward of 1,000 gold coins!
Xue Wuxian, who was originally not much interested in this freshman competition, heard Payne say that there was a bonus, and a spirit woke up and hurriedly asked, "Is there really a bonus?"
He had long known that Xue Wuxian would react like this, and Payne explained with a smile: "There is a reward of 1,000 gold coins for the first place, and the freshman competition is for each academy to send five players, if you can win, everyone will have 1,000 gold coins, how about it, will you participate?"
"A thousand gold coins?"
Xue Wuji's eyes lit up, there was no way, Xue Wuxian used to live on the Iron Mountain with his master, it didn't matter if he had money or not, but now he came to the Astor Academy of Magic, although he was exempted from tuition as a special student, but his daily expenses still need to rely on himself to make money, and there are bonuses to take, of course Xue Wuxian is willing to participate.
Of course, there are not many people like Snow Traceless who participate in the competition purely for the prize money, and most people value the teachings of the Magister, so almost all of them have signed up, and this situation seems to be expected, Ciri Magus said with a smile: "Everyone is so enthusiastic to participate, let's all go to the training ground for selection, and the winner will be qualified to participate in the freshman competition." ”
Coach Ciri and Coach Buck brought the students of the Magic Warrior Class to the usual training ground, and Coach Buck announced the rules of the selection competition, "Every group of six, each group will select a contestant, okay, now everyone is ready to draw lots!"
"Now it's time to start!" I don't know if it's boring, the four people who are recognized as the strongest in the class, Snow Without a Trace, Payne, Hatton, and the ground and air are separated, Snow Without a Trace is drawn A1, Payne is drawn B2, Hatton is drawn by Group C No. 4, and Earth Sky is drawn by D6,.
"Okay, let's play by number, the game process is the winner of No. 1 and No. 2, then the winner and No. 3, and then the winner and No. 4, until the winner of the competition is the freshman contestant, and the rest of the races are the same. ”
"Coach Buck," Payne asked, after finally understanding Coach Buck's words, "doesn't that seem fair? Just like Snow Without a Trace, wouldn't he have to win five in a row to qualify? ”
Obviously, Coach Buck had been prepared for Payne's question, and he explained lightly to Payne: "Payne, sometimes luck is also part of strength, if you can't handle the problem in the worst situation, at least you are not a qualified cultivator." ”
However, for Xue Wuji, whose mind is duller than his body and relies on his instinct to use magic and martial arts, the difference between No. 1 and No. 6 is just a few more fights, and he doesn't care. First chose a weapon, as always, Xue Wuxian didn't choose any weapon, I don't know what he thought in his heart.
And the No. 2 player used the epee, as a classmate, the No. 2 classmate knew very well the power of Xue Wuji's empty hand, that time in the martial arts class, Xue Wuxian split fifteen layers of stone slabs with one hand, and the power of Xue Wuji's hand knife was no worse than his own heavy sword, so he attacked first, using the length of the heavy sword to use magic at a distance.
The tactics are very simple and correct, but Xue Wuxian has grown up in the Iron Mountain since he was a child, and the beasts on the Iron Mountain don't know what to make Xue Wuxian play with, so how can he let Student No. 2 use magic calmly?
Xue Wuxian was very simple to meet the heavy sword and rushed over directly, and the No. 2 student waved the long sword and attacked Xue Wuxian with sixteen swords, hoping to stop Xue Wuji's offensive, but Xue Wuxian had secretly used the fighting spirit taught by his young master, and all the attacks were shocked to the side under the effect of the fighting qi barrier, and Xue Wuxian kicked the opponent with one leg and kicked it off the training ground.
Student No. 3 used a one-handed axe, but he learned the lesson of the previous one, and as soon as he got started, he used the magic scroll, and threw out the magic scroll of the thunder attribute, only to see three thunder lights rushing straight towards Xue Wuji, although Xue Wuxian had thick skin and thick flesh, but he didn't want to be shocked, so he was forced to use a fighting energy attack, a heavy fighting energy wave suppressed the current, and rushed towards the 3rd classmate, and the No. 3 student fully understood the meaning of the words that sold the magic scroll to his boss at that time.
"I guarantee that the quality of this magic scroll is absolutely the best," the No. 3 student was stunned on the spot.
Seeing that Xue Wuxian had won two games in a row, Payne secretly applauded in his heart, how did Xue Wuxian practice with this level of fighting spirit. On the other side, Hatton and Earth and Sky were also secretly surprised, in their impression, although Snow Without a Trace is quite powerful, but today it should be a super level performance!
Soon, Xue Wuxian easily dealt with three opponents again, and now only the last person remained, but this time it was not as simple as the previous times, and it was Anga who drew the No. 6 lot, and he was very good at magic.
"Xue Wuxi, your fighting spirit is very strong, but you have fought five battles in a row so far, have you wasted a lot?"
Onga walked up with a smile, the kind of weasel grin that looked like a chicken was annoying, "It's not going to work against your normal magic, but I have my own strategy." ”
However, it was obvious that Xue Wuxian didn't like to go around in circles, and he said lightly: "Anga, it's useless for you to say so much, I'll attack first." ”
As he spoke, Xue Wuxian attacked first, only to hear the sound of banging, Anga didn't move at all, but Xue Wuji's fist was only halfway through the attack and was blocked by the invisible barrier.
"Magic barrier, Onga, do you really expect this?" "Anga was wearing a cloak with shoulder pads, and now the gem set on the shoulder pads was shining, and everyone could tell that this was exactly what he was using the magic barrier, "It's just a little bit like you've seen a clue, but it's just a guarantee that I'll be able to finish the spell." ”
Anga stuck his one-handed sword into the ground and said in his mouth, "Smoke and make an alliance."
Onga swiped his fingers across the one-handed sword, and bright red blood dripped down, "Guided by blood, guide the eternal ...... of the dark night"
Dark magic, Snow Without a Trace only knows one thing, don't let this magic be completed. Xue Wuxian knew in his heart that this was a high-level magic, and he should be able to break through Onga's magic barrier by concentrating all his fighting energy.
"The breath of slumber is intertwined here, condensing the immutable immobility into ......" Anga didn't care about what Xue Wuji was doing, "Nightbound Dark Array!"
At the same time, the fighting energy condensed by Snow Without a Trace gathered out, and a crackling sound sounded, Anga's cloak shoulder guard was shattered, and the cloak and Anga flew out together, the only difference was that the cloak flew farther, Anga couldn't help a sweet feeling in his throat, and spit out a mouthful of blood, Anga barely sat on the ground with his hands, and there were still a lot of blood marks on his body that were scratched by the aftermath of the fighting spirit.
