The crowd was cheering loudly.

Everyone was so excited that many people did not realize that the pain of a Summoner losing a Contracted Beast was like losing a family member.

They only cared about how exciting the match was. It felt even more real after the death of the Savage Bear Beast!

“Stop it, you are going to kill him at this rate! This is supposed to be an exhibition match to warm up the tournament, not a duel of life and death!” the captain of Prince Beny’s team yelled.

The match was chaotic, since each team had nine members. It was difficult to hear what the participants were saying. They only saw the Summoner using a powerful Light Spell to beat the crap out of the arrogant Fire Mage.

However, the participants in the match clearly knew the two were going to fight one another to the death!

“Stop them!” Elemental Chief Green finally realized something was not right. As the referee of the match, he quickly sent his assistants to stop the match.

The outcome of the match had already been decided. The Fire Mage who killed the Savage Bear Beast had lost consciousness.

An assistant carried the Fire Mage to Elemental Chief Green. “Sir, his life is in danger.”

“Damn it, don’t they know when to stop?”

“The crowd didn’t realize what’s going on. We can continue on with the next match.”

“Treat his injuries. Ask the Faculty Leader of the Healing Element to attend to him.”

The first exhibition match was very exciting. The death of the Savage Bear Beast also intensified the match, like it was a real battle!

——

The second match was very exciting too, but it too had a serious conflict between the participants, just like the first match. A student with the Curse Element had inflicted serious damage on his opponent’s soul.

Most of the damage inflicted on a person’s soul was incurable. The victim’s lifespan would decline as a result.

“Do you think you can use the Curse Element as you please just because you are a student of the Aorus Sacred Institute? This is a public tournament. Many international organizations will come after you for what you have done!”

“I…I wasn’t able to control myself. I didn’t want to lose!”

“Do you realize you’ve taken away ten years of his lifespan? You f**king idiot!”

The third match was scheduled to take place in the afternoon.

It was Mo Fan’s team against Nelson’s team. Boleyn, Ritchie, Sunny, and the others were participating.

Herr Casa was leading the opposing team.

Ritchie and Herr Casa clashed right from the start of the match. Even though the participants were not allowed to use Super Spells in the tournament, Ritchie was struggling to beat Herr Casa, since his cultivation level was not as outstanding as Herr Casa’s.

Mo Fan was fully focused on the fight between Ritchie and Herr Casa.

Mo Fan had always been suspicious of Herr Casa, but he had never exposed himself. Even the people on the list had no connection with him.

Herr Casa was obviously stronger than Ritchie. He was very close to matching Mo Fan’s strength.

Ritchie was having a hard time fighting Herr Casa. He was still in a pinch after using everything he had.

“Is this all you have? You should just lie on the bed and pretend you are still injured. There’s no need to embarrass yourself in front of the crowd,” Herr Casa mocked him.

Ritchie kept backing away. He soon found himself at the edge of the barrier.

Ritchie looked behind him. He could see a lot of spectators through the barrier. Not only were they wearing mocking expressions similar to Herr Casa, some of them even pointed their thumbs down at him.

He felt humiliated. He had lost to the same guy twice!

He had given his everything, just so his clan could make a comeback.

In the end, he was still no match against someone with such a formidable background!

What was the meaning of the suffering and pain he had been through all these years? Everyone was going to remember his miserable face after the tournament.

“How did it feel when your bones were broken last time? Why don’t you have a taste of it again?” Herr Casa came closer with a disgusting grin.

Ritchie could no longer withhold the anger inside him. He swore he would make Herr Casa pay too, if he insisted on destroying him!

Ritchie’s skin suddenly turned purple, like scales with purple flickers.

He dashed forward and lunged at Herr Casa.

Herr Casa was startled. He clearly sensed Ritchie was using a Super Spell! Herr Casa did not expect it.

The tournament had strictly forbidden the participants from using Super Spells. Those who broke the rule would face serious consequences.

Herr Casa did not think Ritchie would ruin his life because of a little humiliation. To his surprise, Ritchie actually broke the rule!

He had used a Super Spell and charged at Herr Casa like a lightning beast that had broken free from its chains. He tore through Herr Casa’s defense with ease.

Herr Casa’s defense was only an Advanced Spell. It had no chance of stopping the penetrative Lightning Spell!

Ritchie was only within inches from Herr Casa. The scales on him expanded, turning him into a lightning tank that was going to crush everything to pieces.

“Are you out of your f**king mind?” Herr Casa yelled.

Herr Casa did not have time to back away. He could only stare at the tank as it ran over him. He Summoned his Magic Armor in a panic.

However, he was too close to Ritchie, and his Magic Armor needed a moment to take shape, it could not just appear instantly. Herr Casa began to regret he acting so tough and wondered why he did not realize Ritchie was such a madman at first.

He was going to get himself killed!

“Order Manipulation!” a deep voice uttered behind Herr Casa, just as he thought he was either going to die or turn into a cripple.

Herr Casa’s vision flickered rapidly. Everything was flying around, like how the walls, table, and ceiling were upside down when he woke up from a dream.

Herr Casa realized he was no longer in danger. A man with lightning flashing about him had replaced him. He was standing in front of Ritchie.

He reached his hand out like he was trying to catch something. The wild lightning on Ritchie dissipated instantly, as if it had disappeared into a different dimension.

Ritchie was completely worn out. His fearless charge came to a stop.

Mo Fan wrapped his arms around Ritchie to prevent him from falling to the ground.

Ritchie stared at Mo Fan in disbelief as the energy of his Lightning Element was neutralized. He managed to calm down after he came to his senses. He did not understand why he would do such a stupid thing.

More importantly, he did not understand why his lecturer was able to nullify his strongest attack so easily!
