Chapter 6: The Final of the College Competition
Dick limped off the stage with his paralyzed body, but fortunately he was not injured, and the paralysis on his body would heal after a while. At this moment, he still has the leisure to look up and watch the battle on the field.
In the sixth round, the second match, Flender Joseph faced off against Texas Inge.
Flender Joseph is an eighth-level water-type demon martial arts dual cultivator, and Texas Inge is a ninth-level trainee warrior of the wind system.
As soon as the battle began, Flender blessed himself with a water-based magic "Water Barrier", and with this extra layer of protection, he was on par with Texas, who was one level above him.
By the time Flender cast a second spell, "Cold Water Freeze", Texas was already on the losing edge.
In the end, Flender gave his opponent a decisive blow with the water-based magic "Frost Sword" and won the victory for Zuihou.
Dick watched the whole battle from beginning to end, and Flender's strength was obvious to all, but at this moment, how could he be allowed to retreat?
The Valks Academy competition finally ushered in the final.
Dick Fahn vs. Flender Joseph!
Sixth-level Demon Martial Arts Double Cultivation vs. Eighth Level Demon Martial Double Cultivation!
Dick felt that the paralysis caused by the previous battle had disappeared, and he slowly walked onto the stage.
Flender Joseph was a very ordinary-looking young man and dressed quite simply, but no one would look down on him. In his right hand was a thin stabbing sword with a large blue gem encrusted at the end of the hilt.
"Prepare to ......" the referee's voice came, and both people on the stage tensed their bodies.
"Let's go!"
Neither of them was the first to attack, and both of them stayed where they were, not even showing up for the instantaneous magic, because the distraction of casting the instantaneous magic would affect the release time of the large magic.
"Water Barrier!"
"Daredevil Wings!"
Almost at the same time, the two completed their spells. Dick pointed his sword into the air, and immediately six balls of dark flame were directed towards Flender.
Flender's thin stabbing sword also slashed lightly through the air, and dozens of ice blades met the flame ball.
Almost instantaneously at the moment of the instantaneous magic, the two of them moved, waving their respective blades towards each other.
In the battle between instantaneous magic, Dick had the upper hand, and the ice blade and the flame ball collided, exploding into a storm, and the ice blade shattered and melted, but there was still a dark flame ball left towards Flender.
The thin stabbing sword in Flender's hand was pointed out one after another, and the blue gem at the end of the hilt began to glow. The dark blue fighting qi turned into arrows, scattering the balls of flame in mid-air.
The two fought in close quarters, sword light flying, vigor flying, dark blue and dark black fighting spirit light reflected the audience.
With a loud shout, the two figures separated again, the defensive magic on both of them had been broken, and Flender's clothes were torn in many places, looking a little embarrassed. Dick, on the other hand, had already hung his color, and there was a wound on his left arm and under his ribs, but fortunately the wound was not deep.
Dick stayed where he was, chanting the incantation, and Flender chose to rush forward and fight in close quarters, apparently seeing Dick's injury and wanting to take advantage of the victory.
Dick fought Flender while chanting the spell, and at the cost of two more wounds, he finally completed the spell.
What was the spell that made him complete even at such a cost?
"Dark Curse: Sluggish!"
Flender was stunned, it was such a small curse spell, it seemed that the effect of "time acceleration" was more than the effect of this so-called slow curse.
But soon, he stopped thinking about it like this, and his dexterous figure gradually became clumsy, and every swing of the sword seemed to exhaust the liliang of his whole body. The original smooth swordsmanship is now full of loopholes.
In the face of a strong opponent, Dick finally had to use the hole cards that were originally prepared for McFarlane in advance. The curse of sluggishness of dark magic, after Liliang, which fused the magic of time and space, has long been incomparably powerful.
With a swing of the long sword, the jet-black demonic flames immediately filled the sword body, and the next moment, the long sword was already in front of Flender's throat.
"Winner, Dick", it wasn't until the referee's announcement came that Flender came back to his senses in a daze. He looked at Dick in disbelief, "What kind of magic did you just use?"
"The Dark Curse of Sluggishness has only been greatly enhanced by the help of space-time magic," Dick shrugged and added, "If you were prepared, I wouldn't have won you with this." ”
"Yes, it was I who saw that you were injured, and I was too eager for quick success, so I lost"
"Okay, boys, you're all doing well," Sarneo was already on stage in a flicker, "and you made us watch a great game. ”
"Dick, rest and get ready, and you're going to have a fight with His Highness Macfarlane. ”
"And Flender, you have to learn the lessons of this failure and don't make the same mistake next time. ”
"Yes, Dean," the two replied in unison.
Three hours later......
The two on the platform smiled at each other. Beneath the battle platform stood all the top officials of the Valkx Academy, as well as two dragon knights of the Hughes Empire who were tasked with protecting McFarlane.
McFarlane smiled, "Dick, I didn't expect my opponent this time to be really you. I'm not going to show mercy. ”
Dick also laughed: "I never lost to you when I was a child, and I still won't lose now." ”
"Ready to ......" the referee's voice has been heard.
"Then you can give it a try. "McFarland.
"Let's go!"
Dick summoned several balls of dark flames and flew towards McFarland. Then the incantation began.
McFarlane's weapon was a long knife with a blade as red as blood, and Dick remembered that Macfarlane had said that it was called the Blood Moon, and it must have been a fire-type magic weapon that matched his attributes. McFarland swung several knives in a row, and the powerful crimson fighting qi erupted from the blade, turning into a crescent-shaped blood-red knife qi, and met Dick's dark flame ball in mid-air. In an instant, the flames danced wildly, and the air blades soared.
McFarlane didn't wait for it to disperse, and just rushed straight through the chaotic area of fire and air blades, and rushed towards Dick.
His Highness Macfarlane had been watching the whole of the academy, so he knew very well what magic Dick was working on now.
Before the McFarlands arrived, the wind was already blowing Dick's cheeks like knives.
What a domineering momentum!
Dick didn't dare to resist its sharpness, so he had to use the demon clan martial arts taught by Dimihera and dodge to the side.
McFarlane struck a blow into the air, but his offensive was far from stopping, his left hand pointed into the air, and dozens of crimson flame balls were instantly released, and his right hand swung the Blood Moon Long Knife again and again, and countless crescent-shaped blades of fighting qi were sent out.
In the face of this series of ferocious attacks, even if Dick summoned the Dark Flame Ball in time to defend, he was still bombarded. The left shoulder was grazed by a ball of flames, and he suffered a slight injury.
But after that, his magic was done.
"Dark Curse: Sluggish!"
Because of the limited time for research, Dick has only researched two combination spells of the space-time system and the dark system in the past few days. The most practical thing is this curse of sluggishness, even if he hits this curse with McFarlane's strength, it will be greatly weakened, at least, in close combat, his ninth-level trainee warrior strength has no advantage at all.
"Dick, it is undeniable that this spell of yours is quite powerful, greatly limiting my speed and making up for the gap in martial arts between you and me. McFarlane said calmly, "But don't forget, in addition to being a ninth-level trainee warrior, I'm also an eighth-level magic apprentice. ”
As he spoke, McFarlane, who had been cursed with slowness, stopped moving, and stood still and began to recite the incantation.
Dick waved his hand, and several more flame balls flew towards McFarlane, but McFarlane swung his knife in his right hand, and the majestic fighting spirit erupted, and in the blink of an eye, the dark balls were scattered.
Dick's brow furrowed, McFarlane was right, this curse of sluggishness made up for the gap between the fighting spirits, but not the gap between the magic powers. But he couldn't stop McFarlane from casting spells.
"So, let's use magic to fight it out. Dick also said calmly.
He also stopped harassing McFarlane to cast spells, because that would be useless. He stood there and whispered a mantra.
In addition to various curse spells, Dimihera has only taught him three dark spells in the past few days, two of which are the instantaneous but powerful "Dark Flame", and the defensive magic "Night Demon Wing", which can withstand two powerful attacks from the enemy.
And now, Dick was working the third magic that Dimihera had taught. He prayed in his heart that this guy would not exaggerate what this guy had said about this magic.
On the battle platform, time seemed to freeze, and the two combatants stood silently in place chanting incantations.
McFarlane completed the spell first, which was the strongest magic he could use with the strength of his eighth-level magic apprentice.
Six huge golden flames appeared out of thin air in the void, and there was a trace of electric light between these six golden flames, as if forming a huge magic array.
"Dragon's Fury!" McFarlane shouted, "Be careful, Dick!"
The magic array composed of six interconnected flames suddenly lit up with a dazzling red light, and in the flames of fire and light, a loud and high-pitched dragon roar suddenly sounded, and a fire dragon composed of pure red flames flew out of the magic array, gently stretching its wings and raising its elegant neck.
"Summoning the Flame Dragon, is this still a contest between magic apprentices?" exclaimed among the teachers who were watching the battle.
The dragon circled through the air and rushed towards Dick.
Dick looked up at the fire dragon in the air, the scorching air spraying his face. He opened his mouth and said in a loud voice, "Hades Emperor Demon Scythe!"
Behind Dick, an endless black mist rose in an instant, and the black mist seemed to be mixed with countless resentful spirits, making a terrible shout, and suddenly, the black mist condensed, turning into a cloak, and two huge bone claws of Bai Sensen stretched out from the cloak, and then, the dark elements of the entire space were gathering between the two bone claws, turning into a slender scythe, which was grasped by the bone claws in his hand.
The cloak on his back floated forward gently, but the pair of bone claws that protruded from the cloak held the scythe high in his hand, until the fire dragon composed of red flames flew in front of him, and then slashed down heavily!
"Boom-" There was a violent explosion, and the powerful sound waves spread in all directions along with the flames and black gas, and the entire battle platform trembled, and the enchantment arranged on it also violently vibrated violently.
After a long time, the flames and black gas gradually dissipated, and on the battle platform, both the fire dragon and the cloak holding the scythe had disappeared, and McFarlane fell unconscious to the ground. Dick spat blood, but still barely on his knees with the support of his sword.
Seeing this scene, the teachers of the academy hurriedly stepped forward to help, whether it was Prince McFarlane or Dick, they must not be fine!
After carefully examining the injuries, everyone breathed a sigh of relief that the two children were not in danger of life. Already the faculty of the Academy, who are proficient in light and water magic, have begun to treat them.
McFarlane then also woke up, he smiled bitterly, and said to the old magician Salneo: "Your academy is really a master, and I McFarlane is convinced." ”
The old magician smiled kindly: "It's just a fluke, Your Highness, you are young, and the battle is remarkable, and he will definitely become a real strong man one day." ”
After a few more polite words, Zuihou McFarlane took his leave, and walked to his lodgings in the academy, accompanied by two dragon knights from the Xius Empire.
