Chapter 39

"Wow?!"

Julian was jerked out of the crowd.The hand on his wrist was slender but powerful, like an eagle's claw.Seeing that Damis had picked an apprentice, the crowd immediately clamored; and when he heard this somewhat immature voice, Damis was also suspicious for a moment, and then opened his eyes.He took a closer look, and found that what he dragged out was an apprentice who hadn't graduated yet. He couldn't help being stunned.

How is this going! ?He did choose according to the strength of magic power... Damis was confused for a while.He just felt a bottomless and abundant magic power to pull him out. How could he think that the one he pulled out was a bastard!Rao is as tyrannical as Damis, and he didn't know what to do for a moment. He looked at Yaqibel, who looked at him with a playful expression, who was still being grabbed by the wrist by the mage, and looked at a loss. Julian.

"Since you've picked it out, let's go."

The eldest prince smiled and waved to his apprentices.

Damis snorted angrily, glared at Julian rather resentfully, and said, "His Highness Aceh Bell is joking, right? The apprentice doesn't even have a channeler, let alone tenth-level penetrating spells, the range of eighth-level Does he know spells? How about I choose again?"

Is the tenth-level penetrating spell difficult? !If it weren't for not being able to take the introducer, I might not be able to use it, okay?

Julian couldn't help but slander.He was still a little nervous when he was pulled out, but after hearing Damis' slightly disdainful speech, he felt unwilling for no reason.He ignored Damis, and walked towards Acehbel. The eldest prince looked at Damis and said with a smile, "Master Damis doesn't believe his own judgment?"

Damis was choked up, unable to speak for a long time, and finally turned his head angrily, and simply stopped watching.On the contrary, Kelia, who was standing behind, felt a little uncomfortable. He looked at the fairly solid triple earth shield he built, and then at Julian, who was not as tall as the earth shield, and said to Acehbel: "How about How about this, if he can penetrate the first layer, then Lord Damis will win?"

Damis glanced back at him.

"Julian, what do you think?" The eldest prince looked at the boy.Julian looked at the triple earth shield, and didn't answer, but asked in confirmation, "Can it be pierced as long as a tenth-level penetrating spell?"

"...Let's not talk about whether you know tenth-level piercing spells..." Kelia scratched his head, "For tenth-level spells, you have to hit all of them on one point, a heavy earth shield three times, a total of nine shots, before you can penetrate it. .And the tenth-level piercing spell that hits nine shots in a row... that's already approaching the eleventh level."

Julian thought for a while, nodded, and said, "I want to try it. Triple earth shield."

This kid said he wants to challenge the triple earth shield!

The entire crowd of onlookers boiled, and Damis, who was peeking at him, almost cursed.Why don't people go down the steps for you!At any rate, Yizhong has a chance!Is this apprentice a fool!

"Julian! Smash it!"

Dai Ning yelled at his friend.His excitement can no longer be expressed in words. The young man was bouncing up and down, as if he was the one who was going to challenge and beat him, "Go!"

Julian looked back at his friend, nodded firmly, and then walked towards the triple earth shield, silently thinking about which spell to use in his heart as he walked.

To be honest, tenth-level penetrating spells are indeed not easy.That is the scope of advanced spells.Generally, the use of advanced spells above the ninth level requires a "Introducer" - a magic tool used to balance and stabilize the magician's own magic power, so that the power can be smoothly introduced into the complex magic circle.Many magic items can be used as guides, and everyone's preferences are quite different, and their functions also have subtle differences.For example, Damis's guide is the short staff that he usually hangs on his waist. In addition to balance and stability, it also has an additional effect on attack spells; while Kylia's guide is the one on his wrist. Wrist round, the special function is to extend the time of defensive spells.

However, it is not that without a guide, advanced spells cannot be used. Julian quickly picked out a magic circle that is quite suitable for the current situation from the few magic circles he knows.

He chose the water and fire formation he had drawn with Dai Ning before.

It was a special one-man attack formation after he deliberately added three augmentation formations, and it was also an opportunity for him to stand here.Originally, in terms of design, this formation could only be regarded as an eighth-level formation, but after Julian's final transformation, after hanging three augmentation formations——he quickly calculated that with his abnormal magic power, as long as he could This magic circle is completely filled, and if you want to penetrate the earth shield, you should still be able to take a look.

Standing in front of the triple earth shield, the boy took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, and then started to activate the spell.

Close your eyes and first picture the magic circle in your mind.It was an array designed by himself, he was familiar with all the details, and he drew it very quickly.Centering on the young man's slender body, two lines of light, one blue and one red, began to extend left and right on the ground, quickly forming a pattern of a magic circle. .

"What formation is this?"

"Dual attributes? Huo is out?"

The crowd of onlookers whispered to each other, and Damis, who was carrying him behind his back, couldn't help but look back, and then frowned.

This array is an eight-level array.As far as apprentices are concerned, being able to draw to the eighth level is indeed not bad, but the difference between the eighth level and the tenth level is not 01:30. The second is to crack a few more.Thinking of this, Damis became angry again. Since he only knows how to form an eighth-level formation, why didn't he agree when the conditions were lowered just now?Don't drag him into the water even if you want to lose!

When the mage continued to sulking, Julian had quickly finished drawing the formation. He thought it was about to start, but the red and blue lines continued to extend outward.

Damis began to feel strange.He stared at the three newly drawn circles, identifying the runes within.Three boosters?Is this still a solo?wait, no...

The mage who saw the clue opened his eyes slightly, and then looked at Julian with surprise.At this moment, the formation under the boy's feet was completed and began to rotate slightly.

(Take the booster array to activate the booster array, and then flow into the main array? This design is interesting, did he invent it himself?)

Damis saw the doorway, and some of the people watching the excitement behind stretched their necks also saw it.There were low murmurs from the crowd.

"Are those three small circles boosters? Did someone hang three boosters on the solo formation? The other two are useless?"

"Stupid, look carefully, there is only one actual entrance! This is the superposition of amplification!"

"Is there such a way to draw? What if the stack is not balanced like this?"

"However, if stacked like this, the attack power seems to be enough..."

Damis listened to all these chattering discussions. In fact, he also had the same question in his heart.

The increase is enough, but with your experience and magic power, is there a way to control this formation, little apprentice?You know, the more times you increase the power, the more impurities there will be in the energy, the more unstable it will be, and the more you need a "guider".This eighth-level array has been superimposed to the tenth-level energy by you, can you do it?

Although he still had doubts in his heart, Damis felt that his hands trembled slightly—it was a kind of excitement.

The sword is slanted, this kid is quite up to his appetite.

Julian had no idea what the outsiders were discussing.He was immersed in the technique, the magic circle was completed and perfect, and the magic power began to flow in.He introduced more magic power than needed to reduce the impurities produced after the amplification. It may be a bit difficult for ordinary people, but for Julian, who has an extremely deep magic power tank and is now full of magic power. It's as simple as eating and drinking.With his eyes closed, the boy raised his right hand and stretched forward. The ring on the middle finger Hal gave him and the earrings on his ears all gave off a fiery red light.Driven by the magic circle, magical fire and ice arrows began to appear around him—five rockets and five ice arrows, floating around him at a steady speed, forming a circle.

start up.

Julian opened his mouth, read out a single syllable, and quickly traced a complicated rune with his fingers--when the last stroke was made, fire followed by ice, and nine arrows flew towards the triple earth shield.

Several loud impact sounds burst out instantly, raising a cloud of smoke and dust.Julian looked at the smoky front, his whole heart was beating wildly.

The first crash.

The second crash.

But the third... never came out.

Everyone in the audience stared at the cloud of smoke with their eyes wide open, wondering whether the apprentice succeeded or not.They, like Julian, heard two crashes, but never heard the third.In fact, to be honest, they all think that an apprentice who can destroy the earth shield of two layers of Kylia can be used to apply for the National Magic Court of any country. Even if he can't destroy the third layer, it is good enough it's over...

The smoke finally dissipated.In his misty vision, Julian saw that the third earth shield stood firmly at the end.

The young man was stunned, he relaxed for a moment, his feet were so weak that he was about to fall backwards, but Damis standing behind him quickly supported him.

The third level... It really isn't that simple, Julian smiled wryly.

"...good enough, kid."

Seeing his lonely expression, the blond young man with bad temper and impatient comforted him rarely. "But you should have agreed to that condition just now, otherwise we would have won."

Julian looked up at Damis and muttered, "I'm sorry." But Damis didn't seem angry, he just patted Julian on the shoulder.

"It seems that the result is obvious." Yaqibeier looked at the last earth shield standing majestically in the smoke and whispered softly.

He actually felt a little bit disappointed, like a mood that expected a miracle but didn't happen in the end.But after thinking about it, even a mage who has passed the national examination may not be able to take Kelia's earth shield. As an apprentice, Julian has a way to do this... Thinking of this, he even Consider whether to let Julian graduate early after returning to China, so that he can get formal qualifications earlier and enter the National Academy of Sciences.

"Although I failed to break the triple earth shield, this result is quite good. Julian, don't take it to heart."

Yaqibeier looked at Julian and nodded as affirmation.

Julian didn't answer, he looked back at Dai Ning, and found that his friend was also looking at him.This magic circle was their joint work, and they drew it together. Dai Ning trotted over and stood beside Julian, holding his hand tightly, without saying a word.

He knew Julian was still disappointed.Even if such a result is good enough, after all, he said that he wanted to challenge the triple earth shield. Anyway, this challenge failed.

"Then, Lord Kelia's defense demonstration this time can be regarded as an interesting end. Everyone..."

"Wait a moment, Your Majesty."

Just when Yaqibel was about to finish and send everyone away, Kylia, who had been silent all this time, suddenly interrupted the eldest prince's words.Damis frowned and looked over, even Acibel looked at him in puzzlement.Kelly walked to the side of the earth shield with big strides, turned her head to look at Julian, and showed a wry smile.

"You boy, you are really powerful."

"?"

Just when everyone still didn't understand what happened, Kailia raised her fist and lightly knocked on the third earth shield.

There was a crackling sound of cracking rocks, and a spider web-like crack quickly extended to the entire earth shield from the point where Kelia hit it. Then, the thick earth shield made a loud noise and disintegrated. It broke into several pieces and collapsed.

The moment the earth shield collapsed, everyone was stunned.Julian, Dai Ning, Damis, and even Aceh Bell were stunned.It wasn't until Dai Ning let out a cheer that was so excited that he went out of tune, and carried Julian around in a circle, that everyone came back to their senses.

An apprentice... an apprentice!Amplified an eighth-level attack formation to a tenth level, smashing Kailia's triple earth shield!And without using a director!

Julian himself was still in a daze, and before he could figure out what happened, he was already surrounded by the crowd.The mages asked incessantly: Did you design the magic circle yourself? Have you measured the magic power? Do you have any plans to go abroad for further study? There is still a place for my research tower...

"No, that, this array, this array was designed by me and my friend..." These questions overlapped, and Julian didn't understand a few of them, so he only picked the first question that came to his ears. answer.Dai Ning also had a part in this battle, so he can't take credit for it.

So Dai Ning also became the object of being attacked by questions.

It took Yaqibel, Damis and Kylia a lot of effort to send the mages away and dig out the two children from the crowd.

"Okay, okay, they are still apprentices, and they still have student status in the school. If you are interested in these two children, you can send invitation letters through ordinary channels."

After Yaqibeier's reminder, the mages remembered that there was such a thing as an invitation letter, and they all decided to go back to their bosses to discuss and discuss what conditions they should offer to grab talents.Only then did Julian and Dai Ning breathe a sigh of relief. Although it would be a lie to say that they were unhappy, it was quite a scary thing to be surrounded by so many people all of a sudden.

"This time I won."

Damis, who won the game by turning around, looked at Kylia proudly, who smiled indifferently, and said, "Your perception of magic power is really good, and you can pick it out even if you hide it among apprentices."

"Cough, um, nonsense, my technique is life-saving."

Damis did not forget the dislike he felt when he singled out Julian at the beginning. He coughed twice in embarrassment, then looked at Yaqibel, and said, "Your Highness, your family really has a good talent."

The eldest prince's smile can be described as brilliant.He only replied briefly: "I am Aenos, a great man."

"I have to go back and tell our little ones that you have strong rivals." Kelly sighed, and patted Julian and Daining on the shoulders vigorously, "If you receive an invitation letter from the Mist Knights for an internship, Remember to write me back."

"Go away, I'm the one who won today, and these two are also mine." Damis gave him a fierce look, "I'll go back to ask the dean to send an invitation letter tonight!"

"It's not up to you~" Kelia laughed, and in Damis's eyes, she deserved as much beating as she wanted.

"How are you, want to fight again?"

Seeing that the two great magicians started to confront each other naively, Julian and Dai Ning looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

What Julian didn't notice was that in the crowd, Carter kept staring at him.The boy's small fists were clenched tightly, and his lips were stained with blood.And Manderon also appeared at some time, the great magician looked at the first prince and the two apprentices with an expression of interest, and patted his own disciple on the shoulder.

"...you have to work hard too, Carter."

This sentence was spoken slowly, but Carter was stiff all over. He gritted his teeth and burst out a low answer from between his teeth.

"...Yes, teacher."
