Chapter 123: Crushing Defeat
As the countdown ended, Wen Hong, who had just undergone his second job change to become a Blaze Archmage, immediately pulled out his staff, which was emanating a purple glow.
The tip of the staff instantly radiated an extremely powerful magical fluctuation.
It’s worth mentioning that...
At the same moment, Qin Fan on the opposite side also took out a staff surrounded by a blazing red light!
The fire-red magic crystal floating at the tip of his staff emitted an even more astonishing magical fluctuation than Wen Hong's staff!
When everyone saw this scene, they immediately realized that these two were about to engage in a head-on magical showdown!!
“Hmph! Overestimating yourself!”
Seeing the opponent also take out a staff, Wen Hong sneered.
He was a genuine mage profession!!
Especially after his second job change to Blaze Archmage, the power of his magical skills had terrifying amplification!
Plus, his level and attributes were undoubtedly far ahead of the opponent, so he couldn’t see how he would lose!
‘Starflame Burst’!
Without any hesitation, under the surging magical fluctuations, a starflame fireball containing terrifying high temperature condensed instantly in front of the staff emitting purple brilliance!
This wasn’t an ordinary fireball spell!
This was a starflame fireball, as if all the explosive power had been compressed into this blazing star ball!
With the purple brilliance of the staff, it directly made this A-rank high-level mage skill appear even more horrifying!
The whole chanting time was only one second!
Wen Hong looked up at the starflame fireball gradually forming above his head, feeling like a perfect magical genius.
Just when he wanted to turn his head to mockingly check the opponent's unfinished magic, he was suddenly interrupted...
“Wen Hong!! Watch out!!”
From the audience seats below the stage, a sophomore who had a good relationship with Wen Hong shouted nervously!
This shout made Wen Hong’s confident smile change drastically!
Not good!!
Because he saw in horror a terrifying fireball, like a dragon’s head, roaring towards him!!
“Damn!!”
Wen Hong couldn't help but curse inwardly!
Impossible!
He never expected that the opponent’s casting speed would be faster than his genuine archmage speed!
What made him even more desperate was...
He didn’t even have time to use the Blaze Archmage’s life-saving skill ‘Elementalization,’ let alone use his staff to make the starflame fireball clash with this dragon fireball!
By the time his companion warned him and he turned to see the dragon fireball, he had already missed the best defense and counterattack time.
Thus...
“No!!”
In a desperate shout from Wen Hong, he could only watch helplessly as the roaring dragon fireball exploded right in front of him!
Boom!!
As the dragon fireball exploded, all the audience below were horrified to see the overwhelming dragon fire completely engulf Wen Hong’s tiny figure!
Simultaneously, the dragon fire swept and constantly impacted the stage's protective shield, making it vibrate and produce loud clanging sounds!
This clearly demonstrated the terrifying power of this dragon fireball!
However...
What made the audience even more stunned was...
Buzz!!
That distant, cold figure seemed worried that Wen Hong hadn't been thoroughly burned. He raised the blazing staff again, instantly forming another dragon fireball!!
What!?
This guy wants to kill to the end!!
And...
Why could he instantly cast spells? Not even a hint of chanting or casting time!
A staff member acting as a referee was startled, quickly blew the whistle to stop the fight, and shouted urgently:
“Qin Fan! Stop!”
“Wen Hong has lost combat ability! Don't add to the medical team's burden!”
As the referee’s words fell, Qin Fan lowered his raised staff, canceling the B-rank skill ‘Dragon Fireball.’
Wen Hong should be thankful...
This wasn’t in the wild.
Otherwise, he’d be dead.
Actually, the first dragon fireball could have killed him directly, but Wen Hong's armor saved his life.
Thus, the first dragon fireball only severely burned him, making him lose consciousness due to intense pain.
If the referee hadn’t intervened in time, the second dragon fireball would have necessitated a level 50 or above priest to revive him.
Of course...
Death has a price.
Even if revived, the death penalty is unavoidable.
Every job changer drops several levels upon death.
Losing levels...
Means a decrease in all attributes.
Furthermore...
Qin Fan could consecutively cast two dragon fireballs because after successfully changing his job to Sacred Dragon Knight, some of his professional skills' forms and mechanisms changed.
This B-rank dragon fireball allows a second one within five seconds without consuming additional mana.
Under the ‘Rapid Casting’ S-rank talent, the dragon fireball forms instantly, far outpacing Wen Hong's casting speed.
Even if Wen Hong had given his all from the start and engaged in a magical bombardment with Qin Fan, he would still be crushed.
With an intelligence attribute as high as 2700, at least equal to a level 50 Wen Hong.
The reason for ‘equal,’ not ‘crush,’ is because Wen Hong, being a genuine mage, likely focused all his attributes on ‘intelligence.’
After the second job change, the higher the level, the more attribute points gained per level, making Wen Hong’s intelligence attribute quite high.
But that’s only intelligence.
In other conditions...
Like weapons, armor, skill passives, title passives, talent passives...
Wen Hong was far behind Qin Fan.
Thus, the level 31 Qin Fan completely crushed this genuine archmage.
This ‘face-slapping opener’ ended with an unexpected result for everyone.
The time to decide the winner was less than three seconds.
Even more terrifying...
From start to finish, Qin Fan didn’t move a step.
“Next.”
At this moment, Qin Fan put away his blazing staff, his indifferent voice sounding again.
His tone...
Showed no pride or joy, as if crushing Wen Hong was as simple as stepping on an ant, not worth any emotional reaction.
