Cultivators at the Wizarding Academy

Chapter 164 Silver Moon VS Dorothy

The two should be the same age, but their abilities should not be on the same level.

It is generally acknowledged that elves have longer lifespans. However, they are naturally slower to develop. Silvermoon should be at a significant disadvantage.

That's not actually the case. By using magic potions more frequently, Silvermoon caught up with Dorothy.

At this moment, both of them possessed mental strength far exceeding the threshold of a formal spellcaster, and were probably at the mid-stage.

The mithril wands, slowly raised, faced each other, and the tension instantly flared.

"Duel greeting!" Kinsley reminded him.

With the mithril wand held in front of their noses, Silvermoon and Dorothy bowed to each other and walked to opposite ends of the dueling arena.

The silver and black gowns seemed like irreconcilable opposites, and she silently vowed, "Xiao An, I will never give it to you."

Upon entering the circle, the two turned around simultaneously.

"Unexpected Treasure!"

"silence."

Dorothy unleashed a strike she had practiced countless times in an instant. The blue-white electric current mixed with negative energy, turning pitch black.

The heavy impact struck the diamond-shaped shield, and two of the six layers of defense shattered in the blink of an eye.

Silvermoon followed up with a counterattack, dispelling the surrounding magic and forcing Dorothy to give up the opportunity to continue attacking.

Inscription arrays appeared simultaneously beneath their feet.

A skeletal mage, wielding a magic wand and draped in a robe, appeared before Silver Moon.

A hellhound with no skin and horns appeared in front of Dorothy.

This is far from the end.

Silvermoon equipped the Skeleton Mage with two fully armed Skeleton Guardians.

Dorothy used all her strength to summon a rock golem engulfed in green flames.

A summon created in imitation of hellfire. Although it is only in its rudimentary form, it already possesses a formidable aura.

Weighing several tons, its body is no longer easily shaken by the hands of a mage; its rocky form acts as a natural shield.

The rock golem easily blocked the two skeletal guards, while the hellhound pounced on the skeleton mage.

In terms of summoned creatures, Dorothy has a clear advantage.

Silver Moon felt the pressure and quickly activated the Mud Swamp spell to restrain the rock golem.

The technique of using softness to overcome hardness was used perfectly, astonishing the onlookers, and the silver-haired loli's lips curled up slightly.

The next second, the hellhound's horns coalesced, emitting a strange ray of negative energy. This was a talent spell called Soul Burn, capable of directly extinguishing mental energy and causing damage, especially effective against the caster.

Rumor has it that the Death Finger was inspired by the burning soul of the Cerberus.

Yin Yue felt her total mental energy decrease by about ten percent. A surge of energy coursed through her, and she felt agitated. Because her mental energy was currently relatively abundant, it didn't cause any further negative effects. If her mental energy were depleted and she were attacked by a soul-burning attack, she would likely faint and become easy prey. It might even cause permanent damage to her soul, leaving her mentally unstable and confused.

Seeing the hellhound bypass the skeleton mage and lunge menacingly at her, she quickly waved her wand to cast a wind blade spell and retreated at the same time.

"Dorothy, you've really gone too far!"

"Silver Moon, you'd better admit defeat!"

The two engaged in a fierce battle while also exchanging witty remarks.

The hellhound was slashed by an instantaneous wind blade, leaving it covered in wounds, with one leg separated from its torso, rendering it unable to pursue.

Silvermoon cautiously created distance, unable to continue controlling the swamp to restrict the rock golem's movements. Fortunately, the two skeletal guards had already approached Dorothy first, their steel blades mercilessly slashing at the diamond-shaped shield.

Dorothy unleashes another hidden attack.

The black lightning caused unbridled destruction to the skeletal guards, with surprisingly good results.

The Bone Guardian's movements froze in the lightning, its body billowing out large amounts of black smoke, and cracks began to appear in its bones.

Dorothy continued to increase her magical output, consuming about half of her mental energy, and the two skeletal guardians collapsed into shattered bones.

At this point, his total mental energy was less than one-fifth of its peak.

Dorothy felt a surge of relief and turned her attention back to Silvermoon, where she saw that Silvermoon was still using the Mud Spell to restrict the rock golem's movements.

At the same time, the unsteady skeleton mage staggered over.

The final showdown will take place between Dorothy and the Skeleton Mage.

"You wretched little Qian, accept your trial!" Yin Yue shouted viciously.

The skeleton mage waved his wand, and a white orb the size of a human head flew towards Dorothy. His innate white phosphorus spellcasting properties made his attack method much easier.

Dorothy changed the direction of the diamond-shaped shield. The mithril wand released arcs of dark lightning.

However, the power drops sharply due to the great distance.

Before long, it turned into a war of attrition.

The fireball shook the diamond-shaped shield time and time again, until only the last one remained to shield Dorothy, its mental energy almost completely exhausted.

"I will not admit defeat!"

Dorothy deliberately withdrew her diamond-shaped shield, preserving her last bit of mental strength for a desperate last stand. She retrieved a short blade inscribed with a holy light shield from her spatial ring and gripped it tightly, her slender legs moving with lightning speed. She usually wore sneakers and maintained a certain level of training. Her daily diet consisted of monster meat, giving her a physical strength far exceeding that of ordinary people, placing her on the verge of condensing battle aura.

At this moment, the frantically circulating blood and burning determination finally took the last step, and transparent flames surged from his body.

The purplish-black-haired loli charged towards the skeleton mage instead of retreating.

"Xiaoqian, you're also a dual cultivator of magic and martial arts!"

Silvermoon commanded the skeleton mage to launch an attack, and the Netherfire Ball locked onto Dorothy's figure as she sprinted a hundred meters.

The hidden mine struck first.

The soul flames in the skeleton mage's empty eye sockets briefly went out. Then they reformed and, without hesitation, swung the skeletal wand.

The Netherfire Orb struck the Holy Light Shield, creating ripples and depleting most of the energy in the Energy Stone.

Dorothy's forceful charge brought her within arm's reach, and she unleashed her last bit of mental energy to unleash a dark lightning bolt! The short blade in her hand, burning with transparent flames, pierced the core of the skeleton mage's skull.

An extremely thrilling victory!

Before she could even feel happy for a few seconds, a transparent mage's hand descended from the sky.

Dorothy stumbled and fell awkwardly to the ground.

"Silver Moon has won!" Witcher mentor Ginsley announced demurely.

"Why are you playing so seriously?" Tai'an lazily let Yin Yue play with him like an accessory.

"Xiao An, I won! You're mine from now on, and you're not allowed to be with her."

"It's not up to you. I can be friends with whoever I want."

"Give me a kiss, I want a kiss."

The silver-haired loli was overjoyed, while the purple-haired loli was dejected.

Objectively speaking, Dorothy is slightly stronger than Silvermoon. Her main defeat stemmed from tactical shortcomings.

Her trump card, the Rock Golem, is countered by the Swamp spell. Furthermore, while the damage from Mage's Hand might be decisive against a normal caster, it wouldn't inflict much damage on Dorothy, giving her a chance to get back up and fight back.

In this life-or-death battle, the outcome remains uncertain.
