Insufficient balance

  The competition has begun, with a total of 20 competition venues. Each venue has two teachers in charge, one responsible for setting up the boundary (the trial venue is equipped with a magic array, and the teacher only needs to start and maintain the stability of the boundary). The other teacher is responsible for determining the winner or loser.

  Magical matches are very fast, as long as the ability is dominant, the outcome can be decided quickly.

  It was soon my turn, I walked to the center of the arena and exchanged bows with Tian Feng.

  "Come on, let me see your skills." I said with a smile.

  "Alright, I won't hold back." Tianfeng first cast a Wind Soar spell on himself and began to rapidly circle around me while chanting an attack spell.

  I secretly laughed to myself, he didn't know that speed was exactly my forte, I could easily capture his position. I added a full-range prism shield for myself and wasn't in a hurry to attack. I wanted to see what kind of good attacking magic he would use against me.

  "Free wind, heed my call and become a fierce tornado!" Oh, it's just the intermediate-level wind system attack magic, Wind Dragon Whirl. Looks like it's a probing attack.

  A small tornado appeared on the scene with his chanting and flew rapidly towards me.

  I smiled faintly and said, "If this is all you've got in terms of attacks, then you're definitely going to lose."

  I lightly swung my magic wand, "Tear open the space in front of me and devour everything that comes from outside." This is spatial magic - Dimensional Slash, now I can already control this magic very skillfully.

  A black rift appeared between me and the Wind Dragon Scroll, and it was sucked in instantly. Even the Heavenly Wind was slowed down for a moment, its speed clearly decreasing.

  The students under the stage all let out a voice of surprise, "Spatial System Attack Magic!!!!!"

  I cut down the dimensional slash and brought it back, "Do you still want to compare?"

  Tianfeng reluctantly stopped and looked at me, "Forget it, I give up."

  "Dimensional Slash is a high-level attack magic that's difficult to control, and he saw how easily I used it, realizing his strength was far inferior to mine. Rather than being defeated, it's better for him to concede defeat."

  "You're also very strong, unfortunately you met me. Good luck."

  "I'll come back and challenge you again someday."

  "I am ready at any time." Now I'm no longer afraid of anyone's challenge, because I have full confidence in my own strength.

  Because each person had two matches per day in the preliminary round, I went back to the dormitory directly. After a while, Mark also came back.

  "How are you, Mark?" I asked with a smile, looking at him wearing his brand new magic robe.

  "That goes without saying, I can take care of it with just one blast of flames." Mark also has a lot of magical talent, and with the knowledge he recently gained from his teacher and his own tireless efforts, he is definitely one of the top in his second-year class.

  "Let's go, first go eat and then come back to rest, there is still a game in the afternoon."

  The match in the afternoon was easier for me. This student is also from Class B and his strength is not as good as Tianfeng's. He just drew two pictures and admitted defeat.

  In the last match of the preliminary round, I finally met a relatively strong opponent, who was a fire magic user.

  "You're also in Class A, right?" I looked at him and felt a bit familiar.

  "Yes, I know I may not be your match, but I still want to compete with you." He also remained undefeated in previous matches.

  "Then come on."

  He didn't dare to try and test me like a gentle breeze, instead he came straight at me with a high-level fire attack spell without even casting a defensive magic.

  "A passionate fire, listen to my plea, manifest in the world, and turn into an endless blaze that burns everything before my eyes!"

  It's always the same old routine, really annoying.

  I raised my hands high and lifted my head, "Great light element, my friend, use your gentle light to purify everything before us." I used the Purification Light, this purification light is different from the previous one, it's created by myself. The original Purification Light was an enhanced version of Sacred Guardian, mainly used to remove various abnormal states on a large scale. But the one I created not only has the original effect but also can form a thick protective barrier, becoming a high-level defensive magic.

  He desperately urged the flames, charging towards my purification light again and again. I was leisurely watching him in the defensive circle, feeling that it's more embarrassing for the opponent to be knocked off the stage, so it's better to let them retreat on their own. Once his magic is depleted, he'll naturally step down.

  At this time, he suddenly underwent an unexpected change, his red hair standing on end, "Burn the fire of my life."

  The invigilating teachers under the stage were stunned. "How can this student burn his own life like that? It will shorten his lifespan." What a strong-willed child.

  The Flame of Life is a method used by fire-type mages to upgrade their magic levels by burning their own life, which means that his original sixth-level magic can be immediately upgraded to seventh-level magic through the combustion of the Flame of Life.

  The flames outside the defensive canopy, which were originally fiery red, gradually turned dark red and then became a deep, mysterious indigo. My pressure immediately increased, and the Purification Light was about to be unable to withstand it.

  "I didn't expect that, you still have this move. It seems that if I don't let you see my true strength, you won't admit defeat. Alright." He already gave me a feeling that surpassed the original Haidi.

  "Great light element, permit me to borrow your mighty power, let infinite light fill the earth, shine forth." Light system attack magic - Radiant Nine Continents, 7th level light system magic. This is currently my strongest usable magic.

  As I chanted, I slowly floated up from the ground, my entire body emitting a dazzling white light. My magic cloak fluttered behind me, and the golden magic stone on my chest emitted a beam of golden light that intertwined with the white light I was emitting. I tilted my head back, and one-third of the magical energy from the golden elixir in my brow burst forth, spreading throughout my body. The surrounding radiance first contracted slightly before suddenly erupting, and the purple flames were rapidly engulfed by the white light I emitted. The seal on the site also began to show signs of weakening, with cracks starting to appear.

  "This student's magic is incredibly strong, able to use 7th level magic in just the second grade, have they already reached the level of a magical conductor?" The two proctors quickly infused energy into the barrier. Only then did the barrier stabilize.

  The barrier has stabilized, but my opponent has already fallen to the ground and cannot get up. Everyone present was temporarily blinded by the dazzling white light I emitted.

  Actually, I can only exert one-third of the power of this magic, because I'm using only one-third of my magical power. Although it's also a 7th-level magic, his is barely upgraded, while mine is something I can use naturally. Moreover, light-based attack magic above level 7 is stronger than other types of magic, except for dark and space-based attack magic. After he used the Flame of Life, he was already on his last legs.

  "Oh great light element, as your friend, I beg of you to save the life before us." I quickly cast a Soul Recovery spell on him, and the Soul Recovery spell I used was absolutely of high-level recovery magic standards.

  At this time, people on the scene also gradually recovered their vision. I think everyone understands that I am the ultimate winner.
