Chapter 256 - Showtime
There was a great disparity in strength, and with the Mana Retroaction from the start, everything that came afterwards was well within expectations. After the Mana Retroaction, Gryffindor didn’t even bother to take another look at his opponent; he raised his hand and released a Flaming Storm. In an instant, numerous fire dragons were seen charging towards Fedrick…
Fedrick’s chubby face was filled with despair in the blaze of fire. It was followed by a loud crash that silenced the entire Aurora Square.
The mages sitting on the stands were flabbergasted. All these youngsters were too strong. Felic, the young man in the previous round, was ruthless enough. He was only in his twenties and had given all the experienced mages a lesson on spell-casting. And at present, Gryffindor was worse. His battle style was simply unreasonable and brutal. He was destroying the level-11 with his strength. There were neither skills nor tricks, only the most direct attacking spells. The battle could simply be summed up in three words—fast, aggressive, precise.
“No wonder Orrin couldn’t win against him…” Lin Li frowned as he watched Fedrick being carried away from the arena. Gryffindor was strong indeed. Although the match didn’t take long and his opponent was weak, Lin Li could see a thing or two from it. At least in terms of mana control, Gryffindor could be said to be on par with him.
Even Lin Li had to admit the Mana Retroaction was brilliant. It was precise and concealed, without any sign at all. It was like a snake hiding in the grass, dealing the most fatal blow to its prey at the most critical moment.
As for that Flaming Storm at the end, Lin Li couldn’t think of any reason to use it other than to display power.
As expected, Gryffindor stood in the middle of Aurora Square, but his eyes—full of challenge and disdain—were fixed on Lin Li, who was in the distance.
