"Crap!" Abbott's expression changed drastically upon seeing that, and he immediately leaped onto the stage. Novan was still sitting in his seat. He raised his right hand toward the platform, but he hesitated at the sight of the purple golden light erupting from Amy's staff.
"Amy!" Mag also abruptly rose to his feet and charged toward the stage. He didn't think that Hank would play such a dirty trick; he was using a sealed forbidden spell, and that lightning orb was at least a 7th-tier spell, so there was no way that Amy would be able to defend herself against it.
The silver lightning orb left a dazzling trajectory in its wake as it hurtled toward Amy. At the same time, the purple golden fireball shot forth from her staff, flying directly toward the oncoming lightning orb.
Everyone below the stage was perched on the edges of their seats. Hank had unleashed a sneak attack, and he seemed to have used some sort of banned item. If no one could step in in time to save Amy, then the consequences could be catastrophic.
As for the fireball magic that Amy had unleashed as an instinctive response, its purple golden flames were also very dazzling, but no one expected it to be able to counter the lightning orb.
"Boom!"
The purple golden fireball struck the lightning orb in mid-air and exploded violently.
The anticipated scenario where the lightning orb destroyed the purple golden fireball didn't eventuate. Instead, the two clashed and both exploded in a split second. The terrifying power imbued within the purple golden fireball had kept the lightning orb at
bay!
Electricity and fire erupted, sending fearsome heatwaves and shock waves sweeping through the air, causing purple golden flames and silver lightning to radiate in all directions.
The two teachers on the stage immediately unleashed magic shields and hurtled back in retreat. An explosion of such devastating force presented a lethal threat even to them.
Krassu crashed down from the sky, landing right in front of Amy as he summoned a wall of fire. The flames and heatwaves sweeping toward Amy struck the wall of fire, but the wall didn't even tremor in the slightest.
"Get back!" Abbott also leaped onto the stage, and grabbed the dumbfounded Hank by the collar before dragging him back in retreat. At the same time, he waved his wand and eight walls of ice materialized in front of them.
The hurriedly prepared ice walls were very brittle, and they stood no chance against the oncoming heatwaves. All eight walls were shattered in the blink of an eye before the heatwaves struck Hank, instantly burning away his green hair and eyebrows. Miniature bolts of lightning then followed, causing his body to spasm violently.
"Crackle!"
The remnant heatwaves and electric currents swept into the dome of light around the platform, and it was as if countless fireworks were erupting at once, threatening to destroy the dome of light.
"Phew." Abbott dragged Hank out from the dome of light, and threw him onto the ground. His forehead was lined with cold sweat, and he looked down at his hand, only to discover that his fingertips had been charred black
How... How was she able to block the lightning ball spell that Master gave me? Hank lay sprawled on the ground as he stared at Amy with incredulity in his eyes. In that split second, he had been gripped by a sense of impending doom. That tiny little fireball that she had unleashed was no less powerful than the 7th-tier lightning ball spell his master had given him.
Smoke was still rising from his body, which was completely numb. His gaze fell on Krassu, who had just dispelled his wall of fire, and his heart immediately sank.
This bastard should be killed! Mag heaved a sigh of relief at the sight of Amy, who was completely unscathed with Krassu standing in front of her. He then turned his attention to Hank with cold killing intent shimmering in his eyes.
"She blocked it!"
A burst of cheers instantly erupted from below the stage. Even though Krassu was the one who had shielded her from the aftermath of that explosion, the fact of the matter was that the fireball she had unleashed was comparable in power to Hank's lightning orb. That was simply extraordinary!
Those were 7th-tier magic waves! Is she already a 7th-tier magic caster? All of the Chaos School teachers looked at Amy with incredulity in their eyes.
One of the teachers couldn't help but exclaim, "A four-year-old 7th-tier magic caster? She's not just a prodigy anymore; she's a freak!"
Another elderly teacher shook his head, and said, "No, no, it's her staff. If I'm not mistaken, then that purple crystal ball on the tip of her staff is most likely the legendary oracle stone. When unleashing that fireball spell, she might have triggered its 10 times enhancement effect, or perhaps an even higher level of enhancement."
"The oracle stone!" Everyone was stunned again upon hearing that. It was one of the most legendary items in the magic world, but no one was going to doubt that elderly teacher's judgment. After all, Principal Derek was a 10th-tier great magic caster, so his expertise was not to be doubted.
"If she really did trigger such a powerful enhancement effect, then that's also a testament to her aptitude. Even the oracle stone has acknowledged her as a worthy owner. Krassu and Urien really have struck gold this time." Derek sighed with an envious look in his eyes.
"Phew, my heart almost leaped out of my mouth there. Thank heavens Amy is so powerful; otherwise, that sneak attack could have really hurt her." Daphne patted her chest as she glowered at Hank.
"What a shameless bastard. Not only did he unleash a sneak attack, he used a sealed forbidden spell. He has to be severely punished." Ignatsu was also quite enraged.
"Magus Tower representative, Hank, has broken the rules by using a sealed forbidden spell to attack Chaos School representative Amy. Thus, Chaos School wins the match, and Hank will receive a lifetime ban from competing in future matches." Karpas turned to the Magus Tower magic casters with a frosty look on his face.
"We accept this punishment." Abbott nodded with a grave expression. He looked at the greatly enraged Krassu, and his mood became even grimmer.
After what Hank had done, the important thing was no longer whether they won the match or not. Instead, he had to think about how he was going to stop Krassu from killing everyone from the Magus Tower.
In the eyes of the younger magic casters of the Magus Tower, Krass was a benevolent magic teacher of few words. However, he was far from some kind-hearted old man. The Magus Tower had been reconstructed three times in history. The official statement they released each time was that the Magus Tower was undergoing upgrades, and each rebuild really did make the tower grander and more illustrious.
However, everyone from the Magus Tower knew that on two of those occasions, the reconstruction was an act of necessity as someone had razed it to the ground. That person was none other than Krassu. He was a man who even dared to destroy the Magus Tower in his fits of rage, and he posed a big headache even to the entire empire.
Now that Hank had dared to unleash a sneak attack against his disciple, Abbott didn't know what was going to happen next.
"You accept? I haven't accepted that verdict yet." Krassu stepped forward with a cold smile on his face.
