"Definitely a bastard, and that’s the reason why even your hair colour isn’t pure red, It shows your Blaze bloodline is tainted," Asher said as he dove into Alec’s attacking zone.
Sending out two fast punches that were skilfully deflected by Alec, as he used the hilt of the Blood Changdao to redirect his attack elsewhere.
"I have hated the colour red for so long after what your stupid clan did to my mother, But it seems the colour red won’t leave me alone, No matter how many times I dye my hair black or try to run away from your bloodline, the stupid Blaze bloodline seems to latch onto me,"
Alec replied angrily, turning his Changdao backwards and using the hilt to strike Asher on the head, causing him to stagger back.
"You are too weak to even challenge me, kid," Alec taunted as he gripped his Changdao with both arms, his hand muscles pulsing with strength as he attacked with ferocity.
The other mages from the War God Mage Academy could only see red blurs of his sword as it carried a red light with each swing, pushing Asher into defense with no opportunity to strike back.
The arena’s ground was left cracked and slashed from Alec’s powerful blows.
"How is he able to do that?, I thought the arenas were made to contain low tier 4 mage fights," an onlooker marvelled as he witnessed Alec’s destructive strikes.
"It seems Alec has surpassed the strength limit of the Tier 3 Mage Realm and can now match the attacks of newly advanced Tier 4 mages. This is crazy," another observer remarked.
"How long do you think the Blaze clansman will last before he falls to Alec’s blade?" the students of the War God Mage Academy speculated as Alec continued to dominate the fight.
"You fools! There’s no way that Alec, the one you all talk about, could ever defeat Asher. In fact, he should have ended the fight when he had the chance," a voice called out confidently amidst the crowd.
"Prolonging a fight with Asher, who possesses the frost fire variant, is a reckless move," chimed in one of the mages who had previously been defeated by the golems, still holding on to a glimmer of hope that their representative, Asher, would prevail.
The shame of being bested by a single mage and his creations was too humiliating to bear as none of them could even get to Alec talk less of trying to strike him.

Finally, Asher seized an opportunity to create distance from the frenzy of Alec as he sent a long ice shards hurtling towards him.
In response, Alec took a stance and unleashed five long crimson slashes at the swiftly approaching glaciers.
As the crimson slashes collided with the ice, it caused a fiery explosion and triggering a chain reaction that engulfed everything around Alec in blue flames, even onlookers felt a bone-chilling heat threatening to consume them, despite being a distance away from the fighting platform.

The flames surrounding Alec began to crystallize as Asher brought his palms together.
[> Low Tier Spell – Flame Variant – Frozen Coffin Prison <]
Suddenly, Alec found himself trapped within a prison of ice, appearing like a gigantic glacier covering nearly half of the arena’s fighting platform.
"Did you see that?, I told you Asher would never lose to a mere rookie from such an academy, He never falters," another Royal Mage Academy student, previously defeated by Alec’s golems, couldn’t help but gloat to the assembled mages of the War God Mage Academy.
As Alec remained imprisoned in the icy glaciers, they had conveniently forgotten that they were the ones who had barred all mages from the War God Mage Academy from entering the arena’s region.
The spectators were so captivated by Alec’s impressive demonstration of strength that they no longer paid attention to the mages from the War God Mage Academy that have occupied the viewing seats with them.
Their sole desire was for Asher to emerge victorious, sparing them from the potential embarrassment of being defeated solely by Alec’s golems, as they know the mages of the War God Mage Academy would latch on to that to embarrass them.
"Take another look, The match is far from over, In fact, I doubt Asher can defeat Alec, Alec has just been playing right from the start,"
Beatrice who silently appeared remarked, surprising many of the War God Mage Academy students.
The sudden appearance of another member of the Academy’s younger generation golden duo was shocking for them, especially since Alec and Beatrice had not been seen together in the same place since the entrance tests.
It was evident that her presence was solely due to Alec, as he was the only one who seemed to captivate her attention like no one else in the younger generation.
"What do you know?, Your ’Rookie King’ will soon fall before our magnificent Asher, a flame variant Mage," another member of the Royal Mage Academy scoffed, but Beatrice merely snorted in response.
"How blind can you be?, Can’t you see that even when your mighty Asher unleashed all his strength upon Alec, depleting his Mana from his Mana pool to cast powerful spells, he still couldn’t coax Alec to use his elemental powers, let alone counter with a spell?"
Beatrice pointed out, prompting the mages to reflect on the battle, as they realized that while Asher relied on his magical spells, Alec had only used his Mana to fortify his physical form during their clashes, and that meant he had used very little of his Mana.
Such revelations left them feeling apprehensive, because If someone could stand toe to toe with a highly respected peak tier 3 Mage without relying on magic, then they began to ponder how much mightier Alec could become when he finally unleashed his full power,
As they remembered what he said, shedding light on their growing belief in his declaration that he was operating at just 40 percent of his full power.
The audience conversed, eagerly awaiting the outcome, as a resounding "Crack!" echoed through the air, signalling the imminent collapse of the glacial prison.
In a loud bang, the icy structure crumbled, sending shards of broken ice flying in all directions as Alec emerged from the debris.
"Whoa, I never imagined a flame could possess the dual nature of burning and freezing, now show me something new or risk losing my interest," Alec remarked coolly as he stepped out from the shards that had ensnared his body and leaving small ice on his body.
Flames engulfed his body, but they were tinged with a deep red hue, reflecting the Killing intent emanating from his grip on the Blood Changdao.
On one side stood Alec, cloaked in red flames and maintaining his composed demeanor.
On the other side, Asher was engulfed in blue flames, a hint of surprise evident on his face at Alec’s unexpected resilience.
The audience watched in awe as the two men, both descendants of the Blaze Clan, blazed brightly with their distinct flames, a mesmerizing display of power and skill.
