Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The next day, when the warm sun shone on San Pedro, the Lach Academy of Magic gradually began to show signs of boiling.

To the west of the Lach Academy of Magic’s teaching building no. 1, there was a vast field. The buildings on the field were built in the shape of the ancient Roman Colosseum. There were many arenas that were surrounded by layers of stone seats. The seats were currently occupied by mountains of people.

There was a lot of chatter, even the sound of a young girl’s bell-like laughter, which filled the air with youth and vitality.

“I really don’t know what that new student was thinking. They dared to challenge the seniors!”

“Maybe he felt that just because he was specially recruited by the academy, he would be more important than the rest of us.”

“They really don’t know the type of beating he was going to get. This student is probably really dumb.”

In a corner of the entire stone staircase, some of the new students who had just arrived at the Lach Academy during the summer vacation were talking to each other.

“Hughes… do you think he can do it?”

“I think he must have some skills. Otherwise, why would he dare to shout at the seniors?”

“Forget it. I think this guy just wants to show off.”

…

These freshmen were all looking down on Hughes. Otis clenched his fists and cheered for Hughes beside him. “Hughes, don’t be nervous. When the time comes, we’ll beat up that Ferri so that he won’t dare to be arrogant anymore.”

Hughes had not said anything as Otis cheered for him. He merely smiled indifferently and looked towards the arena. Although it had not officially begun, there were already academies sparring in the arena.

While Hughes was staring at the arena, a commotion suddenly came from behind him. Soon after, a fragrant wind blew over and a graceful and slender figure appeared beside him. A tender voice was heard. “Hughes!”

Hughes turned his head to look at Alice, who had appeared beside him. Alice was dressed in jade green clothing today. She had an absolutely beautiful face, and her dancing ponytail had attracted the attention of many people around her.

Alice was a delightful beauty. No matter where she went, there would be all kinds of envious gazes.

“Why are you here?” Hughes was a little surprised at Alice’s appearance. Normally, she should be on the side of the seniors.

“I’m here to support you!” Alice smiled sweetly and said mockingly, “If you get beaten to a pulp, I can carry you back.”

“Then I really have to thank you!” Hughes said snappily.

“Hughes, can you really do it?” A trace of worry flashed across Alice’s big eyes. Teasing was just teasing, but she also understood the importance of today’s matter. Otherwise, she would not have abandoned her friends and come to Hughes’ side.

“I’ll try my best.” Hughes smiled disapprovingly. Just as he was about to speak again, his expression suddenly changed. He raised his head and looked toward the opposite side. He saw a somewhat dark and cold gaze staring fixedly at him from the seat on the stone stairs opposite him, it was none other than Ferri.

Some of his lackeys were surrounding Ferri. At this time, these lackeys were also looking at him with cold and provocative gazes.

Hughes and Ferri stared at each other from afar. As their gazes intersected, it was as though sparks were flickering.

The two of them had been celebrities in the academy for the past two days. Many people had come for their battle today.

Therefore, the two of them stared at each other in a confrontational manner. This caused the corners of their mouths to widen. They knew that they would not be able to escape from today’s good show.

Ferri stared at Hughes from afar. Then, he turned his gaze towards Alice, who was beside him. He gritted his teeth so hard that they creaked. When he looked at Hughes again, his gaze became even colder.

Hughes took in all of Ferri’s subtle changes. Then, he turned his head to look at Alice, who was beside him.

“If you think I’m causing you trouble, then I’ll leave,” Alice said with a straight face.

Hughes could not help but laugh. His dark eyes stared into Alice’s. His bright eyes made Alice’s little face turn slightly red, but she still stubbornly looked at Hughes.

“His words… shouldn’t be considered trouble,” Hughes said with a smile.

“Hmph, all he does is brag. Let’s wait until you defeat him.” Alice curled her lips and said.

Dong!

A clear bell chime suddenly sounded. This bell jolted everyone present. The fight was finally about to begin.

The clear bell chime reverberated in the sky. The lively atmosphere below had also reached its peak.

Toward the north of the arena, three figures were sitting on a quiet stone step. On the left was Archmage Rodney from yesterday. On the right was a middle-aged man with a thin face. His face was tense, and his eyes were slightly sunken, he appeared very cold and stern.

“Hehe, today’s arena is even more lively than before,” an old man with white hair, who was sitting in the main seat between the two, could not help but say as he looked at the fiery atmosphere below with a smile.

“Most of the past fights had clear winners, but today’s fight… I wouldn’t take a guess so quickly. Archmage Rodney said with a smile.

“What? Obviously, Ferri would win. Ferri is already a mid-level elemental mage. With the support of his s-rank fire talent, not to mention the new student who has yet to enter the academy, even among the sophomores, he is probably ranked in the top few. Although Hughes is not bad, he is still far from Ferri’s level.” The cold middle-aged man on the right side curled his lips, he was Ferri’s father and had a fiery relationship with him. Naturally, he hoped that Ferri would be able to defeat Hughes.

“Clyde, it’s not very wise to underestimate a mage with SS-grade magic talent,” Archmage Rodney said faintly.

“Unfortunately, that’s for the other elements. Light elements are not included in that list.” Archmage Clyde shook his head and said.

“Hmph, is that so? I hope that when Kate comes back, you can still be so stubborn.”

After Archmage Rodney said that, he stopped talking and focused on the arena.

“You… Hmph!”

Archmage Clyde also stopped talking and turned to look at the arena.

The old man with white hair smiled when he heard the argument between the two of them. Apparently, he was already used to it.
