BXBX NOVEL Chapter 382: Who Do You Want To Win?
Professor Lionel then grinned as he scanned the faces of the students looking back at him.
"Today\'s lesson is a battle of the elements," Professor Lionel stated. "I will pair you to fight with each other, and you are only allowed to use the element you are proficient in. When I call your names, come up here into the arena."
Professor Lionel then looked at his students with a mischievous smile on his face before he called out two names to duel in the arena.
"Well then, let\'s call upon the first two contestants. They have joined some tournaments in the past, so I will just call their pen names instead of their real names," Professor announced. "Enraged King and Trox King, you two brothers, come up here!"
The two young men groaned after being called out by the Professor, who didn\'t care that the two of them just wanted to read a novel.
Since they were called, they had no choice but to go up on stage.
"The two of you, go on the left side," Professor Lionel ordered. "I\'m not that mean to let you two fight each other. "Now, we call upon their opponents. Come up, Roger and Philip!"
Two eager young men, who wanted to show off their prowess to their classmates, climbed up with confident smiles on their faces.
The King Brothers both wielded the element of Earth, while their opponents wielded the element of Wind.
The ones at a supposed disadvantage were the King Brothers because their enemies could practically ignore all of their attacks while they flew in the sky.
Even so, the two didn\'t show any signs of weakness on their faces. They looked as if they were merely facing two extras in one of the novels that they read to help them pass the time.
"Are both sides ready?" Professor Lionel asked.
"Ready," Trox King replied, while his brother, Enraged King, just nodded his head.
"More than ready," Roger stated.
"Let\'s do this." Philip took out his wand, showing his eagerness to fight.
Seeing that both teams were ready to fight, Professor Lionel activated the barrier of the Arena before shouting.
"Duel Start!"
As soon as the battle started, Roger and Philip both used Leviticus to make themselves float in the air.
A moment later, they unleashed a barrage of Wind Blades at the two Brothers, who had already expected this would happen.
Trox King waved his wand in front of him as he chanted.
"Magna Murus Terrae!"
Several walls of earth that were over four meters tall rose up from the ground and blocked the barrage of Wind Blades that were aimed in their direction.
While their opponents were busy bombarding them with wind blades, Enraged King took the opportunity to counterattack.
"Spica Terrae!"
Several Earth Spikes flew from the tip of his wand and shot toward his opponents who were in the air.
Roger and Philip nimbly dodged to the side, effortlessly evading the attacks that came from the ground.
"Can\'t you throw something faster?" Roger said in a teasing tone. "That was so slow, I almost fell asleep before evading it."
"Right," Philip nodded. "You better do everything in your power to win before I use my special move."
The King Brothers ignored the taunts of the two people, who were mocking their battle style.
What Roger and Philip didn\'t know was that Enraged King was simply testing how fast their reaction time was.
After knowing that his opponents weren\'t as mobile in the air as he thought they would be, he glanced at his brother, who nodded back at him.
The two brothers then crouched down on the ground, enveloping themselves within a dome of earth.
Roger and Philip thought that their opponents planned to become turtles and not come out of their defensive shell for the remainder of the battle.
Because of this, they unleashed their strongest wind spells with the intention of piercing through their earthy defense.
But just as their attacks were about to land on the dome of Earth, something unexpected happened.
Countless spikes emerged all around the arena and shot up in the air. The majority of these spikes were targeting the two flying Wizards, forcing them to defend themselves with powerful gusts of wind in order to repel the Earth Spikes that were flying in their direction.
However, the Earth Spike Barrage continued, bombarding the two flying Wizards ceaselessly.
The barrage\'s speed and piercing power increased with each passing second.
Suddenly, the Earth Spikes started to spin rapidly as they flew toward their targets.
This time, their attacks passed through the gusts of wind that the two Wizards unleashed, making Roger\'s and Philip\'s eyes widen in shock.
As more and more spinning Earth Spikes emerged from the ground, the composure and confidence that the two flying Wizards had been exuding earlier vanished.
They were hard-pressed to dodge and defend themselves from the Earth Spikes that were endlessly coming at them.
Finally, one of the Earth Spikes hit Roger\'s Arm, making the latter instantly turn into particles of light and reappear outside of the arena.
Any lethal blows would trigger the defensive magic that was placed on the arena, preventing anyone from dying.
Half a minute later, Philip appeared behind his comrade with a bitter look on his face.
"Winner, the King Brothers!" Professor Lionel shouted, making everyone in the surroundings cheer.
"That was an amazing performance," Professor Lionel stated. "Both of you will be awarded with 200 Merit Points."
""Thank you, Professor!""
The King Brothers were very happy with the rewards they gained from the battle and left the arena with smiles on their faces.
"Now that the warm up is over, let\'s continue with the main event," Professor Lionel smirked. "Lilian and Chloe, come up on stage."
As soon as the two names were called, Ethan suddenly had a bad premonition. He couldn\'t help but look at Professor Lionel with a bitter smile on his face because he felt that the Professor was doing this on purpose.
