Volume 5 Endirion Academy of Magic Chapter 87 The First Round of Elimination
The Magic Arena was at the back of the Academy, larger than any of the Academy's buildings.
On the outside of the arena is a ring of grandstand surrounded by several floors, and there are already some senior students sitting in the stands, and the battle of the freshmen is actually not too attractive to them as the senior magicians, but compared to the boring study, this freshman duel is still somewhat fun, and it is more interesting than facing the obscure magic book.
The arena has been divided into ten areas, ten games can be played at a time, the first round of knockouts is divided into two games, respectively in the morning and afternoon, five in the morning, six in the afternoon, each venue has a referee, by the fifth grade seniors, in addition to deciding the winners, they are also responsible for protecting the safety of these freshmen, after all, these children are still easy to start, in case something uncontrollable happens, the seniors will come to the rescue in time.
Xia Jingyan is an afternoon game, and before that, he has time to get to know his opponent first, and of course, the opponent will also know his information.
Xia Jingyan's opponent is a girl, her name is Laiya, a magician with light attributes, her four-star cultivation is about to break through to five stars, and Xia Jingyan is only four-level in terms of hard power, which means that Laia has more magic and spiritual power, if Xia Jingyan no longer solves the battle in a short time, then it must be himself who loses in the end, Xia Jingyan thought to himself, and he has no advantage at all in terms of attributes.
The two classes were divided into two teams, and the students who did not play were sitting in the stands, Xia Jingyan looked at Laia who was watching the game seriously in front of him, and he couldn't think of a countermeasure for a while, and he couldn't help but be a little distracted.
Suddenly, Laiya turned his head to look at Xia Jingyan who was not far behind him, and a meaningful look came out of his bright eyes, and Xia Jingyan, who was smiling, was a little overwhelmed, and hurriedly looked to the side to avoid it, although Xia Jingyan had survived for several years in the last days, he was definitely an old oilman, but he really didn't know how to respond to this kind of eccentric little girl.
Laiya's light is really a little dazzling, and her appearance naturally goes without saying, just that outstanding noble temperament is enough to show that her identity is not simple. Xia Jingyan can naturally guess a few points, this may be another child of a powerful family in the imperial capital, cough, this is too difficult.
It's useless to think so much, let's concentrate on watching the game, these opponents on the field may be encountered later, and there will be Aruna's game in the first game, and then it is possible for him to face Aruna, after all, Aruna's strength is still very strong.
And the result shocked Xia Jingyan very much, there were some strong people in the hearts of the classmates before, but they had no idea how strong their actual combat ability was, and Aruna defeated the other party in the first duel with only one blow.
Xia Jingyan didn't expect Aruna to progress so fast, which somewhat increased some of Xia Jingyan's pressure, after all, he was not top-notch among these people.
In these duels, some of them solved their opponents quickly like Aruna, and some of them were of comparable strength, and they were stalemate for a while, and no one could take anyone.
One group of duels is over, and the other group can play a duel, and now the magic used by these freshmen is still not strong enough, and those senior student duels often damage the arena very seriously, of course, it doesn't matter, there is a magic array set up in the arena, and after it is destroyed, the magic array will be launched, and the damaged place will be automatically repaired.
Aruna came back after a while, sat next to Xia Jingyan, and said with a smile, "How about it, have you seen my strength, if you meet me, surrender early." ”
"How is that possible, it's not certain who will kill the deer?" Xia Jingyan responded, it was not incompatible, although the attributes of the two of them were one water and one fire.
"Hahaha, you don't really think you can beat me. ”
"I have to admit that your strength has indeed improved rapidly, but you are a little overconfident. ”
"Cut, don't fall before you run into me. Aruna is encouraging Xia Jingyan from the side to improve his fighting spirit.
"Don't worry, I'm not that bad. ”
"That's good, hee-hee, let's watch the game. ”
"Did you see that person in the third field?" Xia Jingyan said to Aruna as he stared at the field.
"Of course I know him, Cruise, the leader of the second class, the strongest person in their class. Aruna looked nymphomaniac, after all, this young man is not only powerful, but also particularly handsome, which inevitably fascinates these young girls who are just starting to fall in love, and Aruna is fascinated.
Xia Jingyan looked at Aruna coldly, his eyes were full of disdain, and he felt that Aruna definitely didn't know how to fight against him.
At this time, Cruise's opponent is Andrews, the top student of Aruna's class, a fifth-level wind attribute magician, and Cruise is also a five-star player, and the eyes of the students are focused on the duel between these two, this game is definitely interesting.
Andrews and Cruise looked at each other, but Xia Jingyan and Aruna felt that Andrews was a little strange and seemed to be a little unmotivated.
Before the senior announced the start of the game, Andrews directly raised his hand and abstained!
This development surprised everyone, but those who know Andrews know that this style of acting is in line with his character, he must feel that even if he wins, he has to play the next game, which is very troublesome, if he loses, it will be a waste of time, in short, it is a waste of time, it is better to go back and practice seriously, and then Andrews left the arena under the attention of a bunch of classmates.
This couldn't help but make a series of boos from many students, but Andrews didn't care, strode away from here, and the best game of the morning disappeared out of thin air, and some students suddenly felt a lot less interested, and the other games were boring.
Cruise stood there with a stunned face, this is the end? He has not shown his strength yet? He is confident that his ability will inevitably cause the audience to exclaim once he shows it, but it doesn't matter, anyway, he has the opportunity to show his ability.
For Aruna and Xia Jingyan, they don't know much about Cruise, they just know that he is a rare magician, and his strength is extremely strong, Aruna not only complained, this Andrews has no sense of class honor at all, at least help us try the bottom of Cruise, what kind of ability does he have, and he has to talk to him after this competition, but Aruna knows in her heart, and it is in vain to say, after this month, she can also see what kind of person Andrews is, and he always seems to be indifferent to the things around him, but he is extremely firm in his practice, strange guy, Aruna muttered in her heartand then continue watching the game.
The morning was quickly over, with no further episodes than Andrews and Cruise, and the winner was ready for tomorrow's second round.
After lunch, the students returned to the dormitory to take a short break to ensure sufficient mental strength for the afternoon competition.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the students had already arrived at the magic arena, and the students who had no competition arrangements sat in groups in the arena to watch the game.
Students who have competitions are waiting at the entrance of the arena and are ready to enter at any time.
The arena is an enclosed spherical arena, and although the time is not as good as in mid-October, the daylight is particularly dazzling today, and the indoor environment makes these students less suffering from the heat.
In the first matchup, Yakos played against Sikvis, who was in the second class, and it was definitely a tough battle.
How to say it? Sikvis, like Yakos, is an earth-attribute magician, and his cultivation is not weaker than Yakos, so this is a hard-fought duel, and the eyes of the classmates have long been focused on the battlefield between the two of them, and the other people who are fighting have become foils, and some people are still absent-minded in the battle, and their attention is attracted by these two people.
"Captain Yakos, please advise. After making a gesture of magic battle, Sikvis smiled meaningfully and launched an attack, and his personality was crisp and neat.
Sikvis manipulated the surrounding earth elementals, and the ground beneath his feet began to shake, and then the ground cracked, and pieces of rubble gathered at Sikvis's feet, and in a matter of moments, a giant serpent made of stones was formed, and Sikvis, standing on top of the rock serpent, swooped down towards Yakos.
Yakos also smiled, not panicking at all, and with a gesture of raising his hand, rock pillars protruded from the ground, and Sikvis's speed slowed down significantly under the obstruction of these rock pillars.
Yakos jumped on a high pillar and stood on the commanding heights to grasp the situation and occupy some advantages.
Sikves manipulated the serpent to and fro in the stone formation, and in a short time he reached the foot of Arcos, and the serpent circled along the stone pillar, and he saw that he was about to reach Arcos.
I saw that the stone pillar of the giant snake hovering suddenly changed, and the stone pillar gave birth to many protrusions, which were actually linked with the giant snake that was wrapped around it, and the giant snake was restricted by these protrusions, and it was almost there, but it couldn't bite Yakos, and finally completely fused with the stone pillar, completely losing its mobility.
Seeing this, Sikves formed a long sword from the rock in his hand, jumped up and stabbed at Yakos, and Yakos also formed a long sword in his hand, the two swords collided together, and the huge impact force made the sword formed by the earth element unbearable, and both broke apart, and the two also took advantage of the situation to pull away, each standing on a stone pillar, looking for the opponent's flaw, and shot again.
The students in the audience were firmly attracted by this battle, this battle was exciting enough, the visual impact, the mental stimulation, and the nervousness of the people they supported made their blood boil, and for a while there were enthusiastic calls from the audience, all cheering for the people in their respective classes.
Feeling the enthusiasm of the students, the fighting spirit of the two was reborn, which also affected the competitions in other competitive areas, and after the other students' competitions ended, they did not arrange other competitions, but let the students watch the end of this competition.
At the same time, the four huge crystal screens above the arena also worked, and under the urging of magic, the battle footage between Yakos and Sikves was uploaded to the crystal screen, so that the students could see it more clearly.
After a brief buffer, the battle continued, this time with Yakos taking the lead.
Thousands of sharp rock spikes sprouted from under Sikvis's feet, and they kept stabbing at him, and Sikvis's hurriedly manipulated the stone pillars under his feet to grow upward.
If this is stabbed, it will not be directly turned into a sieve, this trick is really ruthless.
After all, Yakos's move is an area attack, and his current strength is not enough to maintain the growth of these rock spikes, and after twenty meters, he will not be able to reach Sikvis.
Sikves stood on the stone pillar and laughed triumphantly, and Arcos just watched him quietly.
Sikves was proud to think that Yakos's attack didn't work, and that he had consumed his mana in vain, and that he was sure to win.
Na Cheng thought that by the time he reflected, this kind of spike had already formed around him, leaving him in an isolated place, with no chance to fight Yacos again.
Now that he is in the sky, the earth element has been out of his control, and he is now like a living target, which can only be at the mercy of Yakos.
Seeing this, Sikves had no choice but to admit defeat.
This loss is too embarrassing, not at all because of the inferior strength of Yakos, but because of his own carelessness, which caused this situation.
Yakos shook hands with Sikvis, "Next time I won't be defeated by your petty means." Sikwis said, but there was no negative feeling about losing to someone of equal strength.
The other classmates don't know, but in fact, these two have grown up together, and they have often competed together before, and they are also evenly matched, no one has an overwhelming advantage, but they just make progress together and become stronger together.
The students didn't expect that the two evenly matched people ended the game in two rounds, and they all watched quietly without saying a word.
And the two laughed all the way back to the audience to watch the next game. When the classmates saw the two talking and laughing, they knew that they had known each other for a long time.
