Versatile Mage

The students lost their minds.

The only words that could describe the strength of the Swift Star Wolf were… fierce and violent!

The one hundred and eleventh-ranked Liu Qian was an expert with two Soul Seeds. His mastery of the Spells was greater than Li Yujie, yet not a single Spell managed to hit the Swift Star Wolf before the duration of his shield equipment ran out.

The Swift Star Wolf seemed to be fooling around with his opponent. He purposely waited until the Fiery Fist was executed before dodging it.

The Swift Star Wolf opened his mouth and spat out a wild gust of wind. The strong wind blew the dust, which howled swiftly across the dueling ground.

The wind was a few times stronger than the Intermediate Wind Spell, Wind Disc. Liu Qian, who had lost his defense, could only face it with his bare hands. His fairly average armor only slightly reduced the force of the attack.

The Swift Star Wolf did not give Liu Qian any chance to catch his breath. As the dust was still drifting in the wind, he sprang forward at his greatest pace. His figure was only a flicker in the midst of the sandstorm.

A great shadow loomed over the Swift Star Wolf. The students watching the duel inhaled deeply when they felt the violent beastly aura from the beast.

Once the shadow devoured the Swift Star Wolf, he rammed into the armored Liu Qian. Liu Qian had no time to draw the Stars of his next Intermediate Spell. He was instantly knocked flying when the armed Swift Star Wolf rammed into him like a truck.

Liu Qian slammed heavily into the defensive barrier, spitting out mouthfuls of blood from the impact.

He dropped to the ground. His previously well-groomed hair was now disheveled, while his face was pale white.

He was still conscious, yet it felt like his inner organs had been dislocated from the impact. If it weren’t for his equipment, he might have had trouble even surviving the collision.

The girls who had their eyes fixed on Liu Qian could feel their hearts breaking. It was definitely something they were unwilling to see…

The truth was, having a handsome appearance was not directly proportional to the strength one had. Even though Mo Fan’s Fire and Lightning Elements had depleted, Liu Qian still was unable to defeat one of his Elements… and he was completely messed up!

Liu Qian did not have the courage to continue the duel. He furiously left the stage.

Huang Xingli quickly ran forward, trying to lend a hand to the severely injured Liu Qian.

Liu Qian was feeling extremely unpleasant. He impatiently ignored Huang Xingli’s kindness and disappeared from the crowd. He even rejected Teacher Bai Mei’s offer to treat his wounds!

“His ego is hurt, so he is showing his temper, too.” Bai Mei glanced at the angry Liu Qian and shook his head.

Huang Xingli stood there with a blank face. She was thunderstruck when she saw the hint of disgust in Liu Qian’s eyes.

Huang Xingli returned to her seat in disappointment. The person she admired the most had only cast a disgusted glance at her, and it felt like her entire world had become dimmer.

Ding Yuming sat beside her, not knowing how to comfort her.

A girl like Huang Xingli was used to judging a book by its cover. As a matter of fact, everyone had their own personalities. A fairly good cover did not necessarily mean good character…

Although this world did emphasize looks a lot, it was essential to keep the admiration just on the looks. It was unwise to have high expectations on other aspects too…

Among the spectators, Zheng Jiahui was totally dumbfounded.

Even the famous Liu Qian was defeated. Adding him to the count, the maniac on the stage had already defeated eighty people in a row!

Even those ranked in the top fifty would have trouble doing the same!

Meanwhile, Mo Fan simply sat on the ground and began meditating.

More than half of the challengers were left. If he could not recover some energy in time, it would be impossible for him to handle the upcoming duels. Although there was no way Mo Fan would apologize to each student of the Fire School after he lost, he felt like if he failed to stay true to his words when he had just come back to school, it would ruin his image.

He had to regain his title of the demon king!

“Next… Yu Zhenchao!”

“Sir, can I not go?” The student called Yu Zhenchao began to regret his decision.

If it were a battle between Magicians, Yu Zhenchao would not mind showing his face on the stage. However, he totally lost his courage when he saw Mo Fan’s summoned beast.

Even though the Summoned beast was under Mo Fan’s control, it was still a beast, with no compassion or mercy. If the beast somehow tore his stomach open, he would suffer great pain, even if it did not cost him his life.

“Move your ass up there. Otherwise, I’ll expel you from the Fire School, you useless prick!” Wei Rong cursed him furiously.

Wei Rong could not help but admit that there was indeed lots of trash in his Fire School. Eighty people had gone up, yet they still could not take Mo Fan down. Even if he had Double Innate Elements, the class should not have found itself in such a terrible situation!

The challengers were not ordered based on their ranks. Currently, those ranked higher than two hundred still managed to hold on a little longer. After all, people with double Soul Seeds were capable of fighting a Warrior-level creature…

That being said, “capable of fighting” and “defeating” were two completely different things.

And unfortunately for the challengers, the most outstanding trait of the wolf species was their endurance. The beast did not seem worn out after the continuous battles. It was even recovering its energy during the fights!

As a result, the number of defeated challengers stacked up rapidly. The challenges had now lasted from the morning until night. Some people among the crowd who had gone for meals were surprised when they discovered the place was still fully crowded when they came back!

“Double Innate Elements versus the Fire School, the count is now one hundred and thirty-nine people!”

“The Summoned Beast Swift Star Wolf is almost unbeatable! Those ranked lower than one hundred, please make way!”

“The transfer student is on an impossible mission. The Fire School is losing its face!”

All kinds of topics were spreading between everyone’s mobile phones. Initially, the challenges were only made known between the different Element schools, but now even those outside of the school knew about this. Soon, other institutes would know about it, too!

Most of the new students were familiar with the demon king Mo Fan. They quickly dug out all the news about him in the past. The crowd immediately came to a realization. It turned out that the maniac had not just appeared out of nowhere, but he had somehow returned from death in one piece, and was now trampling the Pearl Institute’s Main Campus in his wrath!
