Chapter 75: Liu Yang x Gong Zhou
The six students were focused on watching the fight in the arena, they wanted to know who will be the winner, a novice mage, only viewers knew that Liu Yang was an intermediate mage.
In Liu Xia's mind, Liu Yang will be the winner, that was her confidence as Liu Yang's wife. While the other six students bet on Gong Zhou, as he was an advanced mage, none of them believed that a novice mage could beat an advanced mage. Even though Liu Yang and Liu Xia defeated a rank 5 creature, they thought it was due to Liu Xia because she was an intermediate mage.
"You can start !!!!" Shi Wu was curious to see Liu Yang's performance in this match, as someone who managed to defeat a rank 5 creature, he must have some powerful trump cards, even if he was with Liu Xia.
The two participants in the arena were not caring about the rotten smell, Liu Yang was using the power of the wind to blow the scent away from him, while Gong Zhou was wearing a mask that covered half of his face.
"Dark Explosion" Gong Zhou conjured up his primary spell of the element of darkness. He didn't put Liu Yang in his eyes as he was just a beginner magician. For him, this struggle was one-sided and meaningless.
A black sphere appeared quickly in Gong Zhou's hand, he wanted to play towards Liu Yang. As an advanced mage, his casting speed for a primary spell was extremely fast.
To counterattack, Liu Yang created a wind needle and reinforced it with enough magical energy, he didn't even need to move his body, Liu Yang used the power of thought. His speed was much faster than that of Gong Zhou.
By the time that Gong Zhou created the black sphere, Liu Yang had already made his move. As a control mage, he didn't need to cast his magic and used only magical energy.
The needle fired like a rocket and created a line of green light as it passed. The needle entered the black sphere and reached the center.
Boooom !!!!
An explosion happened when the sphere was penetrated, Liu Yang detonated the magic energy that was inside the needle, that made the energy of the darkness to be destabilized and to explode too.
"Ahhhhhhhhhh !!!!" Gong Zhong shouted agonizingly, he was not prepared for this situation. He thought he could defeat Liu Yang quickly, so he didn't even activate his defensive magic equipment. Because of this, the explosion caused serious injuries to his hand.
Gong Zhong's screams of agony surprised the other five contestants, they didn't even see what had happened. The only thing they managed to see Gong Zhong create the energy sphere, but right after that, before he could throw, a green light penetrated the sphere and detonated afterward.
The contestants understood that Liu Yang had done something, but they did not understand what it was. Everyone at the scene knew that Liu Yang was a control mage extremely adept at manipulating magical energy.
After a few seconds of thinking, everyone understood that Liu Yang must have done something to make the black sphere explode. And the light green line that was seen as the answer, but what was that green line? No one was able to see what it was, but they knew it was something that had magical energy.
"How dare you??!!! !!!" Gong Zhou spoke in a heavy and threatening way, he has never been so humiliated in his life, to make matters worse, he had his hand almost destroyed by a beginning mage.
Gong Zhou's hand was severely injured, the flesh was torn and some bones could be seen. Using powerful healing spells it was possible to heal these wounds, but Gong Zhou's mind was in chaos because of humiliation.
Liu Yang said nothing and looked at Gong Zhou, who was holding his bloody hand with a distorted face.
"Gravity !!!" Gong Zhou couldn't help but use the special effect of gravity to try to hinder Liu Yang's movements.
"Five times gravity ..." Liu Yang felt his body heavier than usual, he couldn't move properly, the only thing he could do was look at Gong Zhou, who was walking slowly towards him, before lookup.
Ten spheres of yellow energy appeared on top of Gong Zhou, before advancing towards him, each sphere hit a part of his body.
"This is thunder !!!" Someone in the audience shouted.
"It seems that this person named Liu Yang has more than one element, but he doesn't seem to be an intermediate mage, I can't feel the energy of an intermediate mage coming from his body"
"This leaves us with the other alternative, he was born with two elements, the element of wind and thunder"
"This combination is very interesting, the two are considered the fastest elements among the nine elements, but the wind is the most piercing while the thunder is the most destructive. The combination of these two spells is something that can easily destroy magic equipment "Another student commented.
…
"You are just a novice mage, what can these spheres do to me? An advanced Mage!! Hahaha !!!! "Gong Zhou laughed when he saw Liu Yang's attempt to defend himself, he didn't even use thunder magic, just magic energy.
But Gong Zhou was surprised when the thunder balls hit his body.
Booom !!! Booom !!! Booom !!!
Arms, legs, chest, belly and back, these five locations were bombarded by the ten spheres of thunder.
"Hahaha!!! Is that all you have ?? It just tickles me !!! Worthy of garbage that is only at the novice level. Haha… What's going on ??? !!!! What did you do????!!!!"
At first, Gong Zhong felt nothing but tickling when the ten explosions happened, he started laughing because of that, but then everything changed, his body started to go numb and paralyzed. Gong Zhong was unable to move his body and he fell to the ground without being able to get up.
The gravity field disappeared when Gong Zhong's mind went into shock.
"What happened?? Why was Gong Zhong defeated ?? "
"This is the power of combining the wind element with the thunder element. It seems that Liu Yang used the piercing power of the wind to pierce Gong Zhou's flesh and the power of thunder to paralyze his body. "
"Special effect?? Can Liu Yang use the special effects of the two elements? "
"It seems so, the special element of the wind is penetration, the wind can make anything sharper, even a sheet of paper can cut a sword. While the power of thunder is paralysis, Gong Zhong's body has been paralyzed"
"It seems that Gong Zhong underestimated his opponent too much, even though Liu Yang is just a novice mage, his control of the elements is something that even a Great Mage cannot keep up with, he used this to his advantage and managed to defeat Gong Zhong. It seems that we cannot underestimate our opponents, even if they are much weaker than us "Another student commented.
Liu Yang's performance showed something unexpected, the weak overcoming the strong with alternative strategies. Liu Yang showed that to beat an opponent it was not necessary to use only brute force, sometimes a different approach can be the most viable and least stressful solution.
"I haven't lost yet!!!" Gong Zhou was annoyed when he heard the comments about him losing to Liu Yang. As much as he tried, he could not move his body, he was paralyzed.
Liu Yang waved his hand and the wind started blowing Gong Zhou's body out of the arena. Even if the other side could not move, Liu Yang would not take any chances, he preferred security and blew the body.
Poff
Gong Zhou's body fell from the arena, it showed that Liu Yang won the fight, a beginner mage won against an advanced mage.
If they hadn't seen it in person, none of them would believe that a novice mage would win a fight against an advanced mage. This was too insane.
Not only did the country get into a huge uproar after seeing this scene, but several other countries as well, they were also watching the Five School Competition broadcasts. The appearance of young people like Liu Yang and Liu Xia will change the world a lot.
"Liu Yang from the East School is the winner of this fight !!!" Shi Wu announced aloud, he had a wide smile on his face. As a member of great influence in the Magic Association, he knew some special secrets, he knew the true background of Liu Yang's parents and watching Liu Yang demonstrate such a performance, Shi Wu was happy with that.
Shi Wu waved his hand and a blue light covered Gong Zhou's body, his hand started to recover at an amazing speed, in just a few seconds, the hand that was almost destroyed was completely restored and his body returned to normal.
Gong Zhou stood up and looked at Liu Yang with eyes full of hate, he would never forget the humiliation he received today. He will make Liu Yang pay a thousand times.
"Liu Yang, what happened today, I will make you pay" Gong Zhou spoke in a heavy, cold tone before leaving, he sat in a secluded spot.
"Next fight !!!"
…
"It looks like you were right, Liu Yang really won this fight" Xie Xinyue spoke nonchalantly, but internally, she was surprised and shocked. It never crossed her mind that Liu Yang would defeat Gong Zhou.
"I told you before, as a good wife, I must believe my husband" Liu Xia replied with the same nonchalant tone. She already expected this result, as a young girl in love, Liu Xia blindly believed in Liu Yang.
While the two girls were talking, Liu Yang appeared in the stands and saw the two girls, he was curious to know what they were talking about.
"Honey, is she ??" Liu Yang pointed at Xie Xinyue.
"Liu Yang, right? It is a pleasure to meet you, my name is Xie Xinyue "She introduced herself casually and indifferently.
"Hello ..." Liu Yang was a little embarrassed about this situation.
"Can we talk for a while? I have something to discuss with you "Xie Xinyue asked, she motioned for Liu Yang to sit in his chair, which was between the two girls.
