At the mention of his name by the youth in the scarf, Fike gazed back at him cautiously.
“I’m Fike, what’s the matter?”
He moved, standing in front of Sertia and guarding her with one hand outstretched.
Seeing his actions, the youth smiled.
“Relax, buddy, I’m not here for your little girlfriend!”
Hearing this, Fike lowered his guard by a bit.
“My name is Rowan. I’m the strongest among this batch of Melee School students!”
“As for the others in our school, you don’t need to pay them any mind. You just need to remember me!”
A cheeky smile appeared on his face as he continued to say.
“Fike, I’ll have to trouble you to make it among the top ten of your Spell School! My Demon Slayer Blade is very interested in your longsword!”
At his words, Fike looked down at the greatsword laying on the desk in front of Rowan.
Rowan stood up abruptly, picking up his weapon and resting it on Fike’s shoulder.
“When the time comes, I’ll show you who the number one freshman in Yogmo Academy is! Just wait for me!”
Rowan made a fierce gesture before leaving the lounge.
As soon as he was gone, Sertia remarked.
“Fike, I’ve heard a lot about this Rowan these few days.”
“How’s his strength?”
Fike asked.
“Rowan is abnormally strong. Even many senior students of the Melee School can’t beat him. In just a few days since the start of the semester, he had already obtained over 100 credits through battles alone!”
Sertia continued to say.
“Moreover, I heard that Rowan is the youngest son of the Lord of Romon City, Rokshin. If you were really to meet him in the arena, I’m afraid that you will…”
Seeing her hesitate, Fike made a bold claim.
“Don’t worry, even if I had to face Rokshin, I’ll still win!”
When they were done speaking, Fike pulled Sertia out of the lounge.
Just as they were exiting, Fike heard the referee calling loudly.
“The next match is an internal battle between two students from Mage Class 2. Ah Fei versus Fike!”
It seemed that in the period of time that Fike and Sertia had been talking, three matches had already taken place.
Fike saw Ah Fei walking toward him.
“Fike, in the battle later, please use all of your strength. Don’t show mercy.
“I want a fair fight. Even if my head is broken and bleeding, I’d rather that than to be like Trudy, walking off stage into a sea of insults!”
Hearing what he said, Fike could not help but feel a trace of respect for his classmate.
“Okay, I’ll fulfill your wish.”
Soon after, the duo had walked onto the stage.
A gong sounded, and the battle had begun.
Ah Fei brought out an emerald staff inlaid with white crystals as he chanted a mysterious spell.
At that moment, purple lightning crackled in the sky directly above the arena.
“Could it be… could that move be Violet Lightning, Azure Frost?”
“Yeah, yeah! Ah Fei seems to be very strong. I wonder if Fike can still win this time?”
The spectators were once again in heated discussion.
The purple crackles in the sky flashed non-stop.
Within the indigo clouds, a small green dragon abruptly emerged. As it opened its jaws, frost seemed to radiate from its breath.
In a flash, everything charged down toward Fike.
‘Looks like this punk is really going all out on me!’
Instantly flashing, Fike managed to dodge the strikes of lighting easily.
Although he had the Overlord’s Body, something clearly told him that it wouldn’t be enough to withstand the Violet Lightning unfazed.
As he sidestepped the purple bolts, the green dragon had also descended, roaring as it spat freezing dragon’s breath toward him.
Seeing the attack, Fike hastily unsheathed the Hermes’ Curse and slashed at the little green dragon.
The second the demonic sword was freed of its scabbard, the Eye of the Demon Lord swung around wildly, looking fiercely at its surroundings.
Fierce Sword Qi radiated around the blade.
Without accumulating any power, Fike directly brought down the sharp blade onto the body of the green dragon.
His speed was ferocious. In an instant, an influx of Sword Qi following the arc of the demonic sword ravaged the body of the creature, swimming back and forth through the dragon’s scales.
The Sword Qi slashed wildly and unceasingly within an invisible squared area, colliding relentlessly against each other.
A golden light flashed as the little green dragon was instantly reduced into a bloody mess.
Ah Fei, who had been controlling the technique, spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing this reaction, Fike immediately understood.
The little green dragon was bound to Ah Fei.
When it was hurt, Ah Fei would also feel its pain. The two worked off each other, and were mutually dependent.
Cutting through his thoughts, Ah Fei spat at Fike.
“It’s not enough! I can’t feel any pain at all, Fike! Get serious with me!”
He withdrew the Violet Lightning, Azure Frost, and the dying dragon disappeared with the indigo clouds.
At the same time, a huge wall of fire ignited on the stage.
This wall of flames seemed to stand even taller than what Fike had seen last time, and it caused the temperature to rise much higher as well.
This was precisely the fireball spell that Ah Fei had upgraded through Maggie’s guidance and his own continuous training in class.
At this moment, Fike couldn’t see any trace of his opponent through the wall of fire, and could only sense his location through his exuding aura.
However, although the flames looked menacing at first glance, it was insufficient to do any damage to Fike.
The flames pounced fiercely at him. At the same moment, Fike strolled casually forward, passing directly through the wall of fire and arriving in front of Ah Fei.
Seeing such a terrifying scene, the crowd went wild.
“Where did this Fike come from? This is too ridiculous!”
“The heat from the fire wall is already scalding from here. How could he not have taken any damage at all?”
As Ah Fei watched Fike emerge unharmed, he had also been taken aback.
“Fike, make your move! Let me see all of your strength!”
Hearing Ah Fei’s words, Fike simply nodded.
Raising his hand, he began to release a spell.
Instantaneously, a huge ball of Heavenly Fire appeared above them that blotted out the entire sky of the trial arena.
Not only did it cover the whole sky, it even seemed to surround the whole building!
The skill burned the air, the scalding temperature causing everyone to suffocate.
At this moment, even the competitors in the other arenas who had been fighting also had no choice but to stop whatever they were doing and look at the apocalypse that was falling from the heavens.
Looking up at the Heavenly Fire, Ah Fei was stunned.
The flames were larger than ever before, its power devastatingly stronger as well.
Ah Fei had no room to dodge.
Seeing that he was at a loss, Fike quickly moved his finger.
The temperature of the Heavenly Fire dropped rapidly.
