Chapter 1848 - Ah, I’m Dead
Chapter 1848: Ah, I’m Dead
The arena was dead silent. The audience had not regained their senses from the shock.
“Number 0, Victory!”
The judge’s reaction was quick enough. After ensuring that Albin had left the battle arena, he quickly announced the result of the battle.
“So she just used ice magic to defeat a 7th-tier ice magic caster?”
“Was that a real spear?”
“That’s a stretch.”
“Was that a close combat magic or long-range offensive magic? It’s the first time I’ve seen long-range offensive magic being triggered manually.”
“It was the sixth elder who ended the battle just now, right? If the ice shield had not appeared in time, the result would’ve been unimaginable.”
“If I didn’t remember wrongly, she’s not just Master Krassu’s disciple. She’s also the disciple of the Lord of Ice, Master Urien…”
“Wow… An ice and fire magic caster! The combination of both long-range offensive magic and close combat!”
The Magus Tower viewing area was in a frenzy as all the magic casters looked at Amy in disbelief.
The way this battle ended once again subverted what they knew and imagined magic to be.
‘That’s wicked?!”
“A three-year-old advanced magic caster! I think this world has gone bonkers!”
“She looks so cute doing the palm hold fist salute!”
“Ah, I’m dead…”
The audience also broke into noisy chatter.
However, they felt even more inspired compared to the magic casters from the Magus Tower who were mindblown.
Ordinary people usually had high regard for advanced magic casters, and they were thought to be the group of the strongest people.
However, Amy just used an ice spear to defeat an advanced magic caster, and even forced the elder at the elevated platform to intervene.
It was really shocking to see how a small body could contain such horrifying strength.
The expression of everyone at the elevated platform changed.
Some of the elders from the Magus Tower at the elevated platform could not even understand the ice spear that Amy created just now, much less the students from Magus Tower.
The sixth elder bowed towards Krassu, and said, “Master, it was an emergency situation, so I intervened abruptly. Please forgive me.”
“It’s alright.” Krassu waved his hand without a care. He smiled. This year’s Magic Caster Tournament was interesting indeed.
“May I ask if that little girl was using close combat magic or long-range offensive magic just now?” Brent could not contain his curiosity. Even a 7th-tier magic caster was reduced to her stepping stone. He was really unable to maintain composure.
Andre also looked at Krassu curiously. Krassu’s disciple had given him ample surprises today.
“I didn’t teach Amy that. She invented it herself. The combination of ice and fire. She’s the only one who can do it.” Krassu shook his head. He looked at Amy dotingly. “This is something no other person can do.”
“Er…”
Everyone swallowed subconsciously. What kind of devilish genius was she? At such a young age, she was already a magic caster well-versed in both fire and ice magic. On top of that, she could create new magic with two completely opposite elements, and use it to defeat her opponent.
“Can I go then?” Amy asked the judge.
The judge nodded. He looked at Amy, and could not help but soften his tone. “Yes.”
“Thank you.” Amy smiled brightly as she hopped amidst some very exciting battles going on to return to the elevated platform.
The camera followed her back to the elevated platform before changing to film another exciting battle.
“I think this camera’s operator has also become Amy’s fan,” someone muttered.
H-how is that possible? Kassadin stared wide-eyed in disbelief at the elevated platform. He would never believe that spear that Amy threw out just now.
Even he did not dare to say that he could win against a 7th-tier Magus Tower disciple.
A three- to four-year-old little girl had a killing spree in the magic caster category, while he was bullying children in the youth category…
That was such a stark contrast, and it felt as though he was pressed on the floor and rubbed to and fro.
The last round of battles was obviously way more difficult. After seven rounds, the magic casters had already exhausted most of their energy and powers. Most people were pushing on with sheer willpower.
However, there were a few exciting battles in some of the other areas. A battle of 7th-tier magic casters was a rare sight.
Ding!
A crisp sound echoed around the arena.
The last battle had ended.
The name list for the top 32 was also released.
Number 0, Amy, was in the first place.
This young contestant was a dark horse. After a series of quick eliminations and consecutive victories, she had become the most-watched contestant at the Magic Caster Tournament.
And another contestant with such achievement would be the disciple of the president of the Magus Tower, Jasper. The magic caster at the peak of the 7th-tier also had a killing spree in this year’s tournament.
However, he had been the hot favorite even before the Magic Caster Tournament started. Therefore, his performance had been expected by everyone, and the attention on him was rather normal.
The moment Amy returned to the elevated platform, she cleaned her hands with a warm towel, and then started munching on her drumstick.
“Great performance, Amy.” Krassu looked at Amy with a bright smile.
“You too.” Amy bit into her drumstick. “You didn’t eat my drumstick up secretly.”
“I’ll bring you somewhere with good food later,” Krassu replied with a smile as he broke into laughter.
“Really?!” Amy’s eyes lit up.
“Of course.”
“Master, you’re awesome! I will work hard to defeat all of them tomorrow!” Amy said happily.
The magic casters around could not help but be shocked at how easily coaxed this young girl was.
“Can you bring me along too?” Vanessa asked meekly.
“Ahem.” Andre coughed softly.
Vanessa stuck her tongue out, and inched back.
After returning to Rodu this time, Andre did not allow her to leave the palace on her own, so she missed the food outside the palace even more.
“It seems like this year’s Magic Caster Tournament will be very interesting. I will still be coming over to watch tomorrow.” Andre stood and left for the palace.
After that, the magic casters and courtiers stood up, and praised Krassu a little. Anyone could tell that Krassu’s disciple would definitely become a legendary character, and might even reach heights greater than Krassu.

“I wonder if the little fellow will get used to staying in Rodu, and how many rounds of battles she passed.” Mag, who just finished the afternoon hustle, sat by the window with a cup of tea and a book in his hands, but his thoughts were elsewhere.
“Andre sent me a letter, and told me to pass it to you.” Irina appeared in the restaurant, and handed Mag a letter.
“He actually sent it to you?” Mag received the letter in surprise.
“No one could find you, but they can find me. I reckon Andre also did not want a third party to find out that he had reached out to you first, so he naturally would have to get me to pass it to you.” Irina sat opposite Mag, and poured herself a cup of tea.
