Magic Academy: My Magic Skills Can Automatically Train Themselves 24/7 - Chapter 22
Chapter 22 Chapter 22: Battle Ended, Badge Obtained!
Feeling insulted, Liang Rou only had one thought in her mind, and that was to turn the other party into a cripple!
She took a deep breath, and the next moment, the magic power in her body gushed out, condensing three white and gray magic rings immediately!
“I don’t believe that I, a third ring mage, can’t deal with you!”
Liang Rou’s voice was hoarse and trembling. She held the custom-made magic staff tightly and immediately poured most of her magic power into it.
With a burst of light, a shadow-like illusion appeared in the air in the next moment. This illusion was as tall as a pagoda and was staring at Bai Ze ferociously.
The four arms behind the illusion were awfully thick and muscular, and they smashed down on Bai Ze without warning.
Gusts of wind from the pounding fists lashed out. At this moment, Bai Ze felt a tremendous magic power pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to even move his hands and feet.
“The Swamp Gray Demon! To think that you knew such a powerful summoning technique!”
Bai Ze looked at the gray illusion in front of him in surprise and asked subconsciously.
Seeing that Bai Ze was about to lose his fighting spirit, Liang Rou couldn’t contain herself, and her face revealed a cruel and proud expression.
“There’s a lot you don’t know. I’ll let you gain some knowledge before you die. It’s worthwhile for you to die at the hands of the Gray Demon!”
After saying that, Liang Rou manipulated the illusion without hesitation to throw a punch at Bai Ze.
Liang Rou was 100% confident that she could kill Bai Ze with this move.
After all, the illusion’s attack could lock onto the opponent’s aura. Unless Bai Ze’s magic power was higher than hers, it was impossible to break through the lock.
The technique of condensing a Swamp Gray Demon was the highest inheritance of her branch family. Even if she had only cultivated it to the Fluent level, its power was already close to a C-class rule.
Bai Ze was just an orphan, and he was no match for her at all. Moreover, the other party had no noteworthy background, so even if she killed him, nothing would happen.
“Bai Ze… Since you ruined my good plan, don’t blame me if you die!” she thought.
Thinking of this, Liang Rou once again injected her magic power into the magic staff, and the illusion became more solid. Feeling the fierce blasts of pounding fists slamming onto his face, Bai Ze’s expression was still calm. The corner of his mouth curled into a smile, and the next moment, the surrounding magic that locked him down collapsed instantly!
Storm Thunder Flash!
In Liang Rou’s vision, the power of the Storm Thunder Flash flashed around Bai Ze. The next moment, he disappeared from his spot as if he had never appeared.
She was shocked and immediately turned to look behind her.
At this moment, she was stunned to find that Bai Ze was standing not far away, completely unscathed, and several one-meter-long icicles were floating around him!
Those icicles were shining with an icy cold radiance, and they were much better than the crude icicles she had formed before.
What was even more unacceptable to her was that Bai Ze’s body was surrounded by two magic rings, one gold and one blue!
That was clearly the sign of a second ring mage.
“Impossible!”
A look of disbelief spread across Liang Rou’s face. She immediately directed the illusion to punch Bai Ze!
“Go!”
Bai Ze’s thoughts spun, and a few icicles suspended in the air immediately cut through the void and shot away.
It instantly pierced through the oncoming gray shadow.
The gray shadow’s body stiffened, then immediately began to disintegrate.
Although the Icicle Technique was only a D-class rule, with its proficiency at the Mastery level, the power of the icicle was comparable to the strength of the illusion.
He defeated it without any effort!
At this moment, Liang Rou had no time to react. She only saw a white light flash in front of her, and in the next moment, Bai Ze was already in front of her.
A chilly sensation passed by her neck. Liang Rou’s body froze. She subconsciously looked over and found a transparent icicle hovering, pointing at the artery on her neck.
The icicle was so icy cold that half of her body became numb in no time.
At this moment, Liang Rou finally understood the situation clearly.
She realized that even with her third ring status, she couldn’t defeat Bai Ze, who was only a second ring mage!
“Kill me? Do you have what it takes?”
Bai Ze grabbed Liang Rou’s collar and stated his opinion word by word with an icy expression.
Faced with the threat and the icicle that could easily pierce through her neck, Liang Rou’s body went completely limp. She was afraid that this guy would really attack her.
She immediately threw her magic staff on the floor.
“I’m sorry, I was possessed. It’s my fault for even thinking about trying to attack you.”
Liang Rou fell to the ground and sobbed. “The reason I’m doing this is because I’m being coerced by that Lu guy. It’s not easy for me either. If there were any other ways, I would never have done this. Boo-hoo-hoo.”
Looking at Liang Rou weeping like a waterfall, Bai Ze’s eyes flashed, and he immediately asked, “What’s not easy for you? You have a wealthy family clan as your backing, and I often see you take out precious tools when you practice on normal days. How can you say it’s not easy for you?”
The storage room soon became quiet.
Faced with Bai Ze’s questioning, Liang Rou stopped crying. After a moment, she explained with tears in her eyes, “Although I’m from a wealthy family, I’m only a daughter of a branch family. I’ve never been valued by the family, and I didn’t even get a place in the training camp.”
“If I can’t enter the Preordained Training Camp, my status in the family will only become lower. That’s why I listened to that Lu guy and set up this trap. Please be lenient. The badge is really important to me!”
After venting her frustrations, Liang Rou wiped away her tears and stood up.
At this moment, her nose was still a little red, and her face was tear-stained.
“Bai Ze, if you can help me win the championship, I’ll definitely repay you in the future…”
“Tsk, tsk.”
Looking at Liang Rou’s pitiful display, Bai Ze said disdainfully, “You think I’ll fall for your trick? Dream on! I’ve already finished drinking the Ether Essence potions anyway, so you’d better forget about it!”
After Bai Ze finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something. He slapped his thigh and immediately said happily, “Oh… that’s right! I almost forgot the badge is also in your hands, right? Hurry up and hand it over!”
He didn’t give a hoot about Liang Rou’s wretched expression at all.
Liang Rou was utterly stunned by Bai Ze’s words.
She didn’t expect Bai Ze to turn hostile so quickly. Before this, he hadn’t made a move and had been listening to her complaints carefully. Now, the moment she finished talking, Bai Ze wanted to snatch the badge away from her.
This was not how a normal person’s brain worked!
At this moment, seeing that Bai Ze was about to strike, Liang Rou immediately shouted in a panic, “Bai Ze, do you really want to become the enemy of our Liang and Lu families? If you leave now, I’ll help you solve the Lu family’s problem. How about it?”
In order to deal with Bai Ze and get the badge, Liang Rou had already gone all out. She threw out her last bargaining chip, hoping that Bai Ze would be more rational.
Even if the other party qualified for the Preordained Training Camp, he would be eliminated in less than a month with his second ring ability.
“Hmph, you’re talking to the wrong person.”
Seeing that Liang Rou still didn’t give up, Bai Ze gave a scornful snort and immediately dished out the excuse he had prepared.
“It’s useless for you to talk to me. If you want to discuss it, go to Zhang Xian. Zhang Xian ordered me to do all this. He found out that you had an affair with another man, and his love turned into hatred, so he ordered me to destroy your plot.”
“If it wasn’t for Zhang Xian, how could I have known about your meeting place?”
