(From MC Perspective)
When the silver runic dome covered the platform. Combat Teacher Freeman directed to act. Next second, Lex Root extended his hand to conjure long wind blades in palms. Soon pale green color sharp wind blades formed in the thick air.
After forming that wide wind Blade, lex root pointed the wind blades straight towards Lucas Brad. The wind blade tears through the air at a breakneck speed. Lex Root's eyes stared at Lucas Brad to see if there were any cards in his hands.
He is pretty sure that Lucas Brad is not as strong as Vincent Carey. With this single attack he can easily test out Lucas Brad's strength.
"Whizz"
When the wind blade comes towards Lucas Brad. He decided to evade it without getting hit. He is also aware that level-1 Wizards have two spells in their hands.
Since Lucas has seen the first one, he plans to let him try his second spell. Just as the wind blade inches closer towards him. He sidestepped enough to evade the blade. The wind blade tore through the empty air behind him.
"Phew, It's faster than expected. I hope I can win somehow." Lucas Brad muttered to himself.
His inner instincts tell him not to use the magic power. It would be too embarrassing to reveal his magic. Fatty gritted his teeth in frustration. He has no other choice to continue this routine, unless he pushes to the end he won't use magic to win.
Fatty Lucas determined in his heart. After gaining some clarity, his tense brow relaxed.
Seeing him successfully evaded the attack. Lex Root's expression begins to frown. He understands that by engaging in closer combat, he can execute his attacks flawlessly.
After making up his mind, the next moment he used his second spell without thinking. When he cast the spell two illusory boots covered his feet. And in the next Second he tears through the air to engage in close combat.
Instead of using a wind blade he decided to test his strength using fist.
Fatty Lucas dumbfounded seeing the next action, "Damn, this guy's speed is too fast food to judge." He mumbled under his breath. He finds Lex's natural wind affinity also aiding in his speed.
In a few steps, Lex Root appeared in front of him. Seeing a statue -like expression of Lucas Brad, Lex Root smirked. He raised his huge fist to slam against him.
When Lex raises his fist to smash him. Lucas subconsciously raised his hand to block the attack.
"Bang"
Lex Root's punch landed on his forearm. Lucas Brad takes a few steps backward due to the impact. But he didn't feel any pain whatsoever in his forearm.
Realizing that inexplicable smile rose in his weakness. "He is not as strong as I had imagined earlier." Lucas Brad said to himself.
This sense of realization gives some confidence in his heart. Even without using his weird magic he can contend against Lex Root.
...
Outside the platform,
All the wizard students are looking forward to this duel. When Lex used his signature wind blade spell, many of them predicted what Lucas Brad would do. He just simply evades the attack by side stepping.
Some even understand that both of them belong their magic related to air method. Lex Root's magic is direct nature wind element one. Wherever Lucas Brad's said to be a mutated one. Even Though it's embarrassing and disgusting it still comes into the category of air magic.
Soon, when both of them engaged in close combat. Everyone's reaction turned into a boring one. They thought something entertaining was waiting for them to see. This close combat didn't even surprise them.
At the same time ... (Vincent Carey)
Seeing the expressions of the wizards around me, a small smile appeared on my face. This match is already a foregone conclusion when I know the attributes of these two.
If both of them continue to engage in close combat. Lex Root will begin to lose his mana capacity. Eventually at one point he will be repelled by Fatty Lucas.
Looking at Fatty's calm expression, I must say his strength has been growing good. So he might win without using his magic power at all.
Suddenly, I felt someone watching over me. I shifted my gaze towards the direction. "Who is this guy?" I muttered to myself.
There were two people glancing at my direction. Then shaking my head, I turned my attention towards the duel.
Seeing Vincent Carey looking at the battle, Phillip Turner asked the person beside him, "Are you going to challenge him next?"
A quick glint flashes in Howard Bright's eyes. He wasn't expecting such a question at this time. Both of them talked about it yesterday. But today Howard's opinion somewhat changed.
He has no problem in fighting against him. Yet according to ranke there are still 5 wizards below him. So why would he challenge those guys?
Seeing that Howard was not answering, Philip asked, "What?"
Shaking his head, Howard Bright commented, "Let those low level Wizards test them again. Why would I waste my time?" After saying that he again glanced at Vincent intently. Then he took back his glance in the next second.
Phillip nodded and said, "Well, these duels were too boring. We should prepare if someone challenges us."
"This? I feel irritated feeling the gazes of these two people again. I have learnt some information about these two. They must be at middle rank.
"Are they planning to challenge me?" I muttered.
"Interesting, Let's see the details of these two" I mumbled under my breath.
"System, Probe the details Phillip Turner" I called out the system in mind.
"Ding! Host's Voice is recognised"
"Ding! The command is executed"

>> 1. Water Bubble 2. Water Arrow
[ Slots Filled- 2 ]
[ Mental Method – Water Bullet Style ( Advanced Grade) ]
A wide status panel appeared in front of me. Seeing the attributes, I felt there is not much difference in the rankings. Between Wizards there is only a small difference in attribute points.
So I think ranking is not very important. But it's nothing when compared to top wizards. With this strength that Philip Turner guy is quite capable of fighting against me.
This Philip guy is also practising the Advanced Grade Method. A curiosity rose in my heart, why everyone has this advanced grade method. I haven't seen anyone having an earth grade method or any other higher method.
But I have this vague feeling that top wizards must have extraordinary mental methods. Otherwise, it's impossible to have amazing strength.
Then I glanced at two different types of water spells. The water bubble is the most common water spell here. I don't know whether it can be used at level 2 or not.
These water bubbles won't pose a threat to my gravity spells. Even the water arrows will crumble down as long as they enter my gravity field.
As long as I stay away from him in close combat, I can easily win against him. After going through the information, my lips curved into a smile.
I don't know whether he will challenge me next. I will definitely fight using the same style that I used in previous matches.
Then I found out one more amazing factor. Most of the wizards that I encountered so far have the same middle low grade talent as me. Only people having different mental methods make the difference in the end.
Shaking my head, I shift my attention to the next person.
"System, Probe the details of Howard Bright"
"Ding! Host's voice is recognised"
"Ding! Command is executed"

My pupils constrict seeing his magic status. "Illusion?" I uttered in surprise. This is the first time I have seen someone with this ability.
Like I had expected before there is not much change in attributes between a few ranks. But this guy is more of an auxiliary wizard than a combat wizard. How come he achieved middle level rank?
It looks much more bizarre. His two spells weren't also enchanting. I wonder how he fights his opponents so far. It would be very interesting when fighting against him.
Again? Advanced Method. No wonder his attributes were so low. Even if he gets some high grade method, I believe it's difficult fight against top grade wizards.
Sighing,
My attention turned towards the battle platform. The fight is still going on, both of the engaging in a close combat. Fatty Lucas seems to be calm. Yet Lex is losing his mana slowly.
