Li Wei and Victor met at the agreed place and then set off for the territory of the Raging Flame Lion.
The Raging Flame Lion was resting when it suddenly saw two humans walking into its territory. It stood up and stared at them. It felt a sense of danger from these humans.
The two of them stood still and pulled out the longsword on their backs. They stared at the Raging Flame Lion. Today, the two of them could not make any mistakes. Otherwise, they would be the ones who would die.
The two of them secretly circulated their battle spirit. Victor suddenly shot out like an arrow from the mysterious sky.
This was their plan. Victor trained in a wind attribute cultivation method. At the same time, he also trained in his own battle technique. He would be the one to pin down the Raging Flame Lion while Li Wei would be the one attacking it.
Victor and the Raging Flame Lion were soon entangled together. Li Wei shot fireballs occasionally and slashed his Blazing Sun sword. Attacks continuously bombarded the lion’s body.
The Raging Flame Lion wanted to chase after Li Wei but he retreated with a single strike. Then, Victor would rush forward to pin down the lion. This made it impossible for the Raging Flame Lion to chase after Li Wei.
For a moment, not only was the Raging Flame lion unable to do anything to the two of them, but it was also receiving blows, adding wounds to its body.
The furious lion swung its claws and took a few steps back. Then, it opened its mouth and was about to release an energy bomb.
Just as the Raging Flame Lion was about to unleash its ultimate skill, the Flame Bomb, a figure suddenly appeared in the sky. It was Li Wei.
Li Wei gathered his battle spirit and punched the Raging Flame Lion’s head.
The Flame Bomb exploded in the lion’s mouth. The aftershock of the explosion blew Li Wei more than ten meters away and hit a tree before he fell to the ground.
Li Wei could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood. He was slightly injured. Then, he turned his head to look in the direction of the explosion.
He saw that the originally majestic lion’s body had been blown apart and was torn into pieces. Fortunately, a sparkling item was seen.
“It’s done, Big Brother Victor!” Li Wei said excitedly.
The reason why the two of them took the risk to kill the Raging Flame Lion was that Li Wei’s magic sword needed the last material, which was the magic crystal of a level-3 Fire Element Magic Beast.
Thanks to Victor, Li Wei could have his long-awaited magic sword. Victor had saved an alchemist before, so the two of them became good friends. That person only asked Li Wei to find the materials himself and did not accept any other payment.
The two quickly cleaned up the battlefield and walked back.
After Victor returned, he took the materials and went to look for that alchemist. As for Li Wei, he went back to the hotel to recuperate.
In the next few days, Li Wei did not go out hunting. Instead, he continued to recuperate as his internal organs were injured during the final explosion in the battle with the Raging Flame Lion.
Finally, on the thirteenth day, Li Wei’s magic sword was ready. Victor had personally delivered it to him. After all, this magic sword was a treasure worth 50,000 to 60,000 gold coins. He was not at ease giving it to others.
Li Wei was pleasantly surprised when he received the magic sword that looked like a magic wand on the outside but was actually a thin sword on the inside.
His purpose of coming here had finally been achieved. He could finally go back.
The next day, Li Wei packed his belongings, took his magic crystal card, and held the “magic wand” in his hand. After bidding farewell to Victor, he left Vigil City.
Spano Academy.
This was the academy’s once-a-year lively day. It was the day of the recruitment and the selection of the odd-job students.
Li Wei had finally rushed back before the selection and registered his name.
The selection competition had begun. One needed to reach the peak of the apprentice magician realm at the age of eighteen. This was something that only a few odd-job students could achieve.
Including Li Wei, only six people had registered.
The selection competition had officially begun! The first person to go on stage was one of the top five geniuses among the odd-job students – Sweet. His strength was at the level of an apprentice magician.
The preliminary round was very simple. As long as he could defeat the puppet of the same realm, he would pass.
Sweet’s appearance attracted a group of odd-job students’ exclamations and discussions.
“Is that Sweet?”
“He’s really handsome!”
“Do you think he can pass the test?”
“What are you thinking? How can such a genius fail this test?”
…
When Sweet heard this, he was also full of confidence in his own strength.
The teacher who was in charge of acting as the referee and lifeguard signaled for the match to begin. Sweet quickly entered his state of mind. Then, he began to chant.
The puppet raised his hand and threw a Wind Blade at him. Instant magic!
Sweet was shocked. This was not how it used to be! He quickly dodged to the side. Although Sweet had dodged, the spell was interrupted by the sudden Wind Blade.
Sweet had to adjust his breathing and recited the spell again. Just as Sweet’s spell was about to end, another Wind Blade swept over.
Once again, Sweet’s spell was interrupted. This time, the referee did not give Sweet a chance, but directly announced Sweet as defeated.
“Why?! I haven’t been defeated yet!” Sweet shouted unwillingly.
“The recitation speed of your level-1 spell is even faster than that of the puppet’s level-2 spell. Magicians need to fight, not a stray dog that only knows how to dodge. You’ve already lost!” the referee said with a cold face.
Hearing this, Sweet did not know how to refute and just stood there in a daze.
“Go down, there’s still the next round. Don’t be discouraged, you still have a chance next year.”
Sweet walked down the stage with a livid expression. He did not expect that the selection this year would be so strict.
Immediately after, the fourth-ranked person went on stage. This person was much smarter than Sweet. After he was mentally prepared, he dodged while reciting the spell. Finally, when the puppet released the wind blade, he also released the same.
Then, the fourth genius’ Wind Blade directly cut through the puppet’s Wind Blade and hit the puppet’s body.
The referee announced that the fourth genius had advanced.
Then, the third genius went on stage. The third genius was a cute girl with blue hair. She wanted to learn the fourth genius’ trick to break the situation.
However, she was a water magician. In the end, the water ball was cut open by the Wind Blade, and she was defeated regretfully.
The referee looked at her speechlessly and said, “If you had used water bullets, you would’ve won.”
The young girl scratched her head in embarrassment and said, “I was so anxious that I forgot the spell of water bullets.”
This sentence made the audience burst into laughter.
“Next, let’s invite Swire on stage.”
Just a single name was enough to make everyone in the hall exclaim in surprise.. It was because Swire was the number one genius among these odd-job students!
