Dark Magic Sorcerer 122

  The next day.

  The sunshine was bright and not harsh, such good weather, more people gathered at the venue of the Magic Martial Arts Conference. After the exciting battles of the previous day, everyone looked forward to today's battles even more.

  Especially in Zone 1, it was already packed with people.

  Murphy's 4th War Zone and Arthur's 2nd War Zone had fewer people, but this was not because Arthur and Murphy were less popular. On the contrary, everyone had unwavering confidence in these two. The strongest in these two war zones would undoubtedly be one of them.

  The strength of these two people is probably only after entering the top eight matches that they may pose a threat to them.

  A battle with a known outcome is naturally less captivating than an unknown match.

  So many people didn't go to watch Murphy and Arthur's match, but instead shifted their attention elsewhere. Among them, Xia Ming and Chris' battle was the most exciting.

  Xia Ming's reputation was not small either, defeating Ge De and Man Niu Li Fei, making him also a focus of attention for many people, only to be overshadowed by Murphy's seventh-level strength in the follow-up.

  As for Chris, he is low-key and introverted, but his strength is undeniable, steadily occupying the top seats in the Magic Academy. He is a true power player.

  After several consecutive matches in Zone 1, it was finally Xiaming and Chris's turn.

  "The long-awaited first battle of today has finally arrived, the two top masters of the Magic Academy, Xiaoming, who once defeated Got with one move, and Chris, a mysterious and low-key dark magic master, who will be the last to laugh? Lan Ning was excited, waving his hands and shouting on stage."

  "Xia Ming! Xia Ming!"

  "Chris! Chris!"

  Countless people cheered for the two names, and this battle was expected to be a thrilling one, just like Xia Ming's first match. The opponent was indeed a formidable foe.

  Xia Ming stepped onto the stage, holding the Holy Flame Scepter in his hand. His calm eyes gazed forward, and the audience's cheers echoed wildly around his ears, but it didn't disturb his inner peace at all.

  Chris also walked up, with a sharp and angular face, his body hidden under a black robe, giving off an air of loneliness and coldness, no wonder so many people said he was aloof and eccentric, it seems there is some truth to it.

  "Qingyun Tower, third grade, Chris." Chris said indifferently.

  The other's self-introduction made Xia Ming a little surprised. Out of courtesy, Xia Ming also spoke up: "Qingyun Tower first year, Xia Ming."

  After exchanging names, under Lan Ning's single word, the atmosphere between the two became tense and heavy.

  "Darkness Pierce!" Chris first raised his staff, the incantation flew quickly from his mouth, and in mid-air, a dozen or so dark-colored elemental spears appeared quietly, each one stretching five to six meters long, with sharp light shining on their surface, as a dark aura approached.

  Xia Ming was on high alert, and he also chanted out the magic almost simultaneously with Chris. Facing a master like Chris, it was absolutely impossible to hide his true strength. Chris was a sixth-level advanced master, and he was also a dark system magician.

  Light and darkness are two rare magical elements, and magicians with affinity for these two elements are extremely scarce. In the same level of situation, the magicians of these two systems also have a greater advantage.

  Flame Devil's Hand!

  Xia Ming's Holy Flame Scepter shone with a silver star symbol, and the powerful magic of Flame Demon's Hand was revealed. This originally fifth-level magic had become sixth-level due to Xia Ming's magical variation, its might even more terrifying.

  Kris's pupils contracted in surprise at Xiaoming's speed of casting.

  Ice flames suddenly burst into flames behind Xiaoming's back, and the brilliant flames instantly triggered a wave of exclamations from the audience.

  "Blue flames? What is that?"

  "What a beautiful flame... The magical fluctuation is so strong it's scary, what kind of magic is this that I've never heard of?"

  Lan Ning waved his hand, fully playing the role of a commentator: "Heavens! Although Chris is proficient in dark magic, Xiaoming's fire magic is actually a rare magical variation!"

  Magic Mutation!

  The term left everyone stunned, and suddenly the whole field was filled with whispers and murmurs.

  Everyone knows that magical mutations are rare, and it's unlikely that even one in tens of thousands of magicians will have a mutation. Who would have thought that this young man in front of us would actually be a magical mutant, and the power of this mutation is astonishingly strong?

  The Flame Devil's hand came sweeping in, stirring up a powerful storm that struck the dozen or so dark thorns, colliding and crashing into each other in mid-air.

  Boom.

  With a loud crash, the fierce storm dispersed, and the Flame Demon's hand incinerated the Dark Thorn to nothingness, also returning it to extinction.

  The first probing battle between the two surnames ended with neither side gaining an advantage, and in terms of momentum, Xia Ming seemed to have the upper hand!

  This made Chris's face even more solemn, and that guy named Xiaoming was indeed not an easy one to deal with. It was really hard to imagine that a newcomer could reach this level.

  Chris hummed softly, his footsteps moved swiftly like the wind, his body floated, maintaining a distance from Xiaoming on the stage, while his staff pointed again, another magic was about to be unleashed.

  "Magic Seal...!" Xiaoming's eyes narrowed, and he wouldn't let go of the opportunity. He flashed his Starlight Step, closing in on Chris, and then a silver six-pointed star symbol lit up on the tip of his staff.

  Magic Seal, Xia Ming's painstakingly practiced magic, has also reached the level of Silver Star God Pattern casting!

  "This..." Chris's mind suddenly went blank, already shrouded in a magical silence spell, and he felt his throat block up, as if something was stuck in it, unable to make a sound, and he couldn't help but be shocked.

  "This is Magic Seal, how can his chanting speed be so fast? And it's Silver Star God Pattern again!" What shocked Chris was not the Magic Seal spell itself, but Xiaoming's casting speed.

  "What a fast casting speed, Xiaoming has already grasped the Silver Star Heavenly Gift pattern! Indeed, he is the most outstanding genius among the new students of the Magic Academy!" Lan Ning explained with feigned surprise. When the audience heard the words "Silver Star Heavenly Gift", most people looked confused, only a small portion of them changed color slightly, understanding the implication.

  "Are the casting speeds of both magic at the Silver Star level?" Chris didn't think that Xiaoming not only grasped the Silver Star, but also raised two magic to the Silver Star level. The Silver Star, Red Moon, and Eclipse are three major divine patterns that represent the casting speed of magicians in three different stages. Only extremely talented and lucky magicians can touch the threshold of one of them.

  Chris has only one spell that reached the Silver Star God Pattern so far. However, his opponent already has two spells that have reached such a standard.

  Chris swiftly retreated, exiting the range of the magic seal. His heart was filled with a sense of vigilance. This Xiaoming, although only a mid-sixth level magician, had an unusually powerful strength that was in no way inferior to his own, making him a rare and formidable opponent.

  "Jade of Corrosion!"

  Chris's mind turned swiftly, intending to hasten the resolution of Xiaoming. His figure was agile and swift, like a seagull flying over the water, not giving Xiaoming another chance to continue reciting the magic spell of silence. The silver star pattern on his staff burst forth, with a strong magical aura, suddenly floating in mid-air, revealing a black bead covered in purple, eerie flower patterns.

  "It's the Silver Star Pattern again! Chris actually mastered the Silver Star Pattern too, that's amazing! This is truly the highest level of magic battle so far!"

  Along with Lan Ning's commentary, Xia Ming hummed a tune, and he had already begun to chant the spell when Chris's magic wand lit up with silver stars, only this time he was preparing for a true vacuum fire sea.

  "Vacuum Inferno!" Xiaoming pulled away from Chris, and with a flick of the Holy Flame Scepter, the Vacuum Inferno was generated at a speed not much slower than the Corrosion Pearl's due to the presence of the 9th-level Fire Crystal Core. Flames burst forth from the ground in an instant, and a dark cloud gathered in the sky, with flames churning above it. The top and bottom collided, leaving only about one meter around Xiaoming untouched, as nearly the entire arena was transformed into a sea of fire.

  "What a powerful magic, terrifying flames, terrifying magic..." Lan Ning exclaimed excitedly.

  The magic scene caused by the Corrosion Pearl was far inferior to the Vacuum Fire Sea, but its lethality was extremely high, like a black bullet, flying towards Xiaoming's fleeing figure!

  The power of dark magic was revealed at this moment, and Xiaoming's ice flame was terrifying, but the dark magic also had a strong corrosive nature, and wherever it went, it actually pierced through the flames in a straight line, rushing straight towards Xiaoming!
