In the center of the battlefield. →
Aside from the elusive and ruthless apprentice, Saine, who was constantly accumulating points, the most dazzling and eye-catching presence on the battlefield was undoubtedly "Heart of the Earth," Gade, who sat in the center of the Great Earth Academy Holy Tower, surrounded by dazzling golden light.
The Earth Elemental Armor floating around his body made Gade shine brightly under the golden light of the Holy Tower Badge.
Furthermore, this apprentice was the one who posed the strongest threat to Saine since entering the Trial Space.
And so far, he is the top apprentice with the most points besides himself.
A grayish-white Magic Staff, resembling a large Stone Pestle, was held in Gade's hand.
With each swing of Gade's staff, a giant meteorite crashed down from the sky.
A continuous stream of Earth Elemental energy factors converged on Gade's location from all directions on the battlefield.
Despite being a relatively inconspicuous Earth Element attack spell among advanced magic, "Meteor Fall" caused a continuous stream of Casualties among the apprentices of the Thunder Radiance Holy Tower due to Gade's relentless casting.
In terms of casting frequency and speed, Gade alone is equivalent to three Quasi-Magician.
What's even more incomprehensible is whether the Magic Power and Mental Strength within this guy are inexhaustible.
Even for someone like Saine, it would be difficult to unleash advanced magic at such a high frequency.
Furthermore, upon closer inspection, it can be observed that Gade did not make any obvious movements indicating that he was taking the medication.
He was like a true bottomless pit of elements, frequently unleashing his Magic Power on the battlefield. →
Saine had originally intended to try and pick a fight with this guy who was radiating golden light, but in the end, he had no choice but to give up.
Firstly, Gade was positioned in the center of the Great Earth Academy Holy Tower, surrounded by at least two or three hundred apprentices, all of whom were of relatively high rank.
If Saine wants to take action against him, he must first withstand the pressure from the other students of the Great Earth Academy Holy Tower.
Secondly, Gade's magic casting speed has not slowed down, and who knows if this guy has other tricks up his sleeve.
During this time, more than one offensive spell from the Thunder Radiance Holy Tower hit Gade's vicinity, but most of them were intercepted by the other apprentices around him.
Even if a few spells managed to get close to Gade, the apprentice simply waved his hand, and a huge earthen wall suddenly rose from the ground, silencing the danger.
For some reason, after witnessing Gade's attacks and battlefield performance, Saine suddenly recalled the formal magical duel he had witnessed between his mentor Moxidu, and Kaisersen, at the Black Wizard Academy.
The battle of divisions.
"Heart of the Earth" Gade has indeed developed some of the skills of Formal Magician.
Saine had researched in the library of the Azure Source Holy Tower and learned that the biggest difference between Formal Magician and an ordinary magic apprentice was that Formal Magician no longer relied on drawing Magic Power from their bodies when using magic, but could directly mobilize the Element Power in the surrounding environment.
In terms of both magical power and endurance, Formal Magician far surpass apprentices.
And the way Gade was casting his spell was so similar to the characteristics of Formal Magician!
And who said that Gade only possessed the advanced magic "Meteor Fall"?
The reason why only this magic is used on the Apprentice Battlefield is that, among Earth Element magic, only this magic is most suitable for large-scale apprentice melees on this kind of battlefield.
Gade is a pure Earth Element magic apprentice and has not delved into knowledge of other elemental lineages.
Saine did indeed make the decision not to provoke Gade.
Unfortunately, things don't always go as planned.
Saine doesn't intend to provoke others, but that doesn't mean others won't come looking for him.
Even a meticulous and top-notch apprentice like him can encounter unexpected events, especially those uncontrollable factors.
When Saine, located in a relatively dark mountain valley in the eastern part of the central battlefield, once again attacked and killed a Advanced Apprentice of the Great Earth Academy Holy Tower, gaining nearly 800 Academy Points.
An unexpected incident has occurred!
The Holy Tower Badge, which had been suppressed by Saine using Chromium Gold as an inert material, could no longer contain its dazzling golden light, which surged from Saine's body.
Because, just now, Saine's personal points exceeded 100,000.
Compared to the golden light on the surface of "Heart of the Earth" Gade's body, the golden light on the surface of Saine's body at this moment was undoubtedly more dazzling!
It's like the difference between the blazing sun and the bright moon.
When Saine was exposed on the battlefield, he almost instantly stole the limelight from Gade as the number one apprentice on the battlefield!
Tens of thousands of Holy Tower apprentices stared blankly at the suddenly appearing, vast and unparalleled pillar of light.
Even the originally intense battlefield, filled with flying magical elements, fell into a moment of stillness and silence.
In the sky, for a moment, only a small amount of magic remained, still shining brightly.
At this moment, Gade, the Heart of the Earth, also turned his gaze to Saine, who was not far from him.
At this moment, a hint of something was in Gade's eyes.
Shock, a touch of indignation, and a hint of resentment!
It's unclear whether Gade was so angry because Saine had taken his top spot on the leaderboard, or because of the Earth Academy apprentice's corpse at Saine's feet.
"Damn it!" The Golden Light Pillar that were difficult to suppress from appearing on his body caused even the usually calm Saine to utter a rare curse.
Without even having time to collect the apprentices' Spoils of War, Saine, standing on the Metal Discs, immediately flew towards a spot on the battlefield where the number of apprentices was relatively small.
"Kill him!" It was one of the apprentices who shouted this first.
Immediately afterwards, all the apprentices on the battlefield were filled with excitement.
Both the apprentices of the Thunder Radiance Holy Tower and the apprentices of the Great Earth Academy Holy Tower were now casting hostile and angry glances at Saine.
With tens of thousands of apprentices united against a common enemy, Saine has set a precedent for wars between the five Holy Tower Regional Academy War!
Even the Heart of the Earth, Gade, was staring intently at Saine.
Without uttering a word, the Peak Apprentice simply snorted and chased after him, Magic Staff in hand.
The more than 100,000 points that Saine possesses can only belong to him!
Thinking that his total points so far were only a little over 40,000, Gade couldn't help but feel extremely ashamed and annoyed.
Where did this apprentice come from? It's obvious he's not an apprentice of the Thunder Radiance Holy Tower.
In fact, at least 40% of the reason why Gade led his disciples of the Holy Tower to launch Regional War against the Thunder Radiance Holy Tower so early on can be attributed to Saine.
In Gade's view, only the long-established and deeply rooted Holy Tower organization Thunder Radiance Holy Tower, could possibly produce Peak Apprentice could take away his number one position on the leaderboard.
Martinez, the outlier in the previous Academy War, is the best example.
"Who the hell is this guy?" Gade couldn't help but curse.
Because of his proximity to Saine, and through his personal abilities, Gade was among the first apprentices to catch up with Saine.
Unlike other apprentices who are used to casting spells from a distance, Gade is not afraid of melee combat.
The thick layer of Earth Elemental Armor surrounding his body was his best asset.
However, before Gade could get a clear look at Saine's True Details and appearance, a series of beams of the Sun's Eye shot straight toward his face!
