Full-Time Mage: Starting with Gengar, selected for the National Tournament

Chapter 10: Forfeit the Match, Desperate Young Masters of Noble Families!

As the two were talking.

Ai Jiangtu and Nan Jue made their move again on the arena!

Both fighters have a very clean and efficient fighting style.

Ai Jiangtu had just unleashed a level one "Psychic Control - Virtual Claw".

Nan Jue immediately released the level two "Sound String Disturbance" to interfere and block.

Take advantage of the moment when the Void Claw is blocked.

She seized the opportunity and quickly unleashed the first level of "Sound String - Kill".

Ai Jiangtu then released a level-two spatial magic, "Mind Control - Retreat," to defend himself.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Amidst a series of muffled thuds.

The two met in just half a minute.

The two exchanged blows for dozens of rounds, switching between offense and defense!

After a brief stalemate.

Ai Jiangtu had realized that defeating Nan Jue with only basic magic was not so easy.

So he stopped keeping a low profile.

A firm handshake.

"Intermediate-level Level 1 Spell, Spatial Rhythm - Compression!"

Faced with a sudden mid-level spell.

Nan Jue's expression changed drastically.

An invisible force rippled outwards.

She felt a tightness in her chest, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth!

Nan Jue looked at Ai Jiangtu with a helpless expression, wiped his mouth with his right thumb, and raised his hand decisively.

"I give up!"

A highly anticipated battle between dimensional mages.

It wasn't as flashy as I had imagined.

It ended very decisively!

But the remaining masked challengers in the audience were completely dumbfounded!

No one could have predicted it.

Ai Jiangtu has broken through to the intermediate-level mage!

……

Beside arena number 3.

The referee mage was also extremely surprised by Ai Jiangtu's performance, but soon a smile appeared on his lips as he said to Chu Ming on the stage, "Haha, kid, you've got a rival now."

"Hmm, a mid-level space mage is indeed a formidable opponent."

Chu Ming nodded, looking at Ai Jiangtu's figure with some surprise.

Although he was very confident about this competition.

But that doesn't mean he sees everyone else as a useless weakling.

A mid-level mage appeared in the match.

He had anticipated this situation.

To his surprise, the first mid-level mage was actually a space-type mage.

That's not what I meant.

Is it more difficult to become a dimensional mage than an elemental mage?

can only say.

With such promising players participating, this competition is highly prestigious.

"You little brat, don't you think you're getting a bit tricky?"

The middle-aged referee looked at Chu Ming strangely.

He had expected the kid to be on high alert.

Why is he still so indifferent?

Could it be that……

Does this kid have another trump card up his sleeve?

Could it be... that he's also a mid-level mage?

That's why he's not inferior to intermediate-level mages?

The middle-aged referee stared at him intently, his eyes wide, about to ask if it was true or not.

But then Chu Ming, who was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the arena, suddenly stood up and stretched.

"Referee, my time to defend my title is almost up, isn't it?"

"Forehead……"

Seeing Chu Ming's lazy appearance, the referee's lips twitched.

He glanced at the time and shouted to the remaining challengers.

"Warrior number 3, White Wolf, has been defending the title for twenty-five minutes!"

"If no challenger attempts to take the stage, White Wolf will advance in five minutes!"

Blanch!

Chu Ming glanced at the middle-aged referee and almost couldn't resist giving him the middle finger.

Why didn't you remind me sooner?

Only five minutes left.

They even went out of their way to remind people to take the challenge?

Of course, Chu Ming didn't care. Anyway, coming here was a freebie, and it would even add points.

"Time's running out, hurry up and get going!"

"Opportunity knocks but once!"

Chu Ming glanced at the crowd below the stage, did a few chest-expanding exercises, and casually said.

Hearing such arrogant words...

Still, no contestant went on stage.

They weren't stupid. Chu Ming wasn't serious from beginning to end; otherwise, he could have easily coordinated with his summoned beasts to attack.

This guy still has a Poison-Extracting Demon-Slaying Tool in his hand, which hasn't been drawn yet.

Reckless challenges.

It would only waste their opportunity!

Five minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

"Wheel #1, Black Tiger has successfully defended his title and advances!"

"Wheel #3, White Wolf has successfully defended his title and advances!"

It's not just Chu Ming.

Ai Jiangtu has demonstrated the strength of a mid-level mage.

His No. 1 ring has also become deserted.

Therefore, the judges and the production team decided to let both of them advance and select a new champion.

On the viewing platform.

The audience rose to their feet, applause and cheers erupting in respect and admiration for the winner!

With a smile on his face, Chu Ming waved to the audience and then turned and walked off the stage.

the other side.

Ai Jiangtu also silently walked towards another passage.

As the two figures were about to disappear from the field.

As if sensing each other's presence, they turned back and exchanged a glance from afar.

……

After a day of fierce fighting.

The ruling was made by the judges, including the Buddhist monks and the distinguished guest, Tang Zhong.

The winners of the first group have been determined.

Ai Jiangtu, Chu Ming, Dongfang Lie, Mu Tingying, and Nan Jue have advanced!

After dinner.

Chu Ming received the rules for the next round of the competition from the production team.

Points-based competition.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

In a one-on-one singles match, winning earns 1 point, while losing results in a loss of 1 point.

Three games later.

The top ten in the points ranking are the top ten.

If the last-place contestants have the same score, a tiebreaker will be held to determine the final ten.

……

[Your Gengar won consecutive battles yesterday, putting you in a good mood and leveling up quickly, reaching level 29.]

[Benefited from Gengar's actions, your Poison-type magic has been enhanced, increasing Poison damage by 5%]

[Benefited by Gengar, your Shadow magic has been enhanced, increasing Dark damage by 3%]

early morning.

Chu Ming felt his physical strength, mental power, and magical power increase once again early in the morning!

A thought crossed my mind.

The personal attributes interface appears.

"Tsk tsk! Daytime battles can speed up leveling up?"

Chu Ming was overjoyed and headed to the bathroom to wash up.

But at the same time, I have some doubts.

Previously, when he and Gastly were killing servant-level monsters.

It didn't have that effect.

Could it be because he participated in a competition program and gained a large audience?

……

Eight o'clock in the morning.

Chu Ming leisurely arrived at the arena.

After yesterday's intense competition.

The number of viewers for the show was no less than yesterday's.

As the program's organizer loudly announced the start of the competition, a new list of opponents appeared on the big screen.

Just entered the contestant waiting area.

Chu Ming saw his name appear in today's list of players.

He was a little stunned.

Didn't I advance?

He shouldn't be here today, right?

I have some doubts.

The crew members walked over to him and quickly explained the reason.

After listening.

Chu Ming revealed a strange and amused expression.

So it turns out it's related to him in some way.

It turns out that after the first group match yesterday...

Seeing that their opponents were all monsters, many players in the second and third groups chose to forfeit and stop competing.

Because no matter what.

Ultimately, the National Team will only have ten nominations.

Let's look at the first group and see who advanced.

Chu Ming possesses innate talents in both poison and summoning.

Ai Jiangtu, a dimensional mage, is a mid-level spatial mage.

Nan Jue, a dimensional mage specializing in sound.

Dongfang Lie is a natural-born talent from a family of fire-type mages.

Mu Tingying comes from a family of ice-type mages.

They never expected that the most mediocre performer among them would be the ice mage from the Mu family.

This left many ordinary scions of wealthy families in despair.

This competition has absolutely no room for slackers.

A freakish monster has arrived at the Chu family in Jiangnan.

Two dimensional mages arrived at the military mage's place.

The Dongfang family and the Mu family each have one member advancing.

The sorcerer of the Mu family in the capital.

They can only be considered average.

How the hell are we supposed to fight this?

In the end, you'll still get crushed.

Even if they wear masks, outsiders can't tell.

But by this point, they had already figured out each other's identities pretty well in private.

Knowing they couldn't win, they still went up to their deaths.

Isn't this just torture?

Just forfeit and withdraw from the competition!

However, the contestants were all from prominent families.

In this situation...

The production team really had no other options but to rearrange the pairings.
