I Was Just Farting!

After the others finished their magic duels, it was finally Song Jie and Bai Liang's turn.

"Song Jie, Bai Liang!"

When the assessment instructor called their names, Song Jie stood up first and walked toward the magic duel area in front of him.

Seeing Song Jie so confident, Bai Liang's unease suddenly grew stronger.

"How can a Light mage be this cocky?" Bai Liang thought to himself.

But since this was his own proposal, he had no choice but to face it.

When the two stood opposite each other, everyone present turned their gazes toward them.

"This guy actually wants to win my Shoe Magic Tool—how dare he!" Bai Liang's lackey chuckled inwardly.

In the duel area, the assessment instructor beside them looked at the two and asked, "Are you both ready?"

Song Jie nodded, and Bai Liang did the same.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you something—I have more than one magic element." Bai Liang said, looking at Song Jie.

At this, Song Jie's expression remained completely blank, which irritated him greatly.

That was why he told Song Jie he had more than one element—he wanted to see his reaction.

However, Song Jie only responded with an "Mm," looking completely unconcerned.

Seeing this, Bai Liang nearly ground his back teeth to dust. He was considered outstanding among his peers, yet he was being looked down on like this!

"Let's see how a Light mage like you fights me now!" Bai Liang gritted his teeth inwardly as he stared at him.

Song Jie turned to the assessment instructor beside him. "Instructor, you'd better react quickly later, or someone might get hurt."

"Haha, this guy's pretty smart—he knows he's going to get hurt." Bai Liang's lackey, Liu Xiaotian, laughed.

The assessment instructor was slightly taken aback but said nothing. Protecting them was his duty, so of course he wouldn't let his attention wander.

"Begin the duel!" As soon as the assessment instructor's words fell, Song Jie moved first!

Radiance!

Great Burst!!

A golden orb of light broke free from Song Jie's palm, streaking through the air toward Bai Liang.

Just as he was startled, the golden orb exploded in an instant, sending Bai Liang flying backward.

Seeing this, everyone's mouths hung open, and for a moment, they were all stunned.

"Is this Light Magic?" someone asked unconsciously.

Wasn't Light Magic pretty useless in the early stages? Why was this guy's Light Magic so powerful?

The professors watching from their seats were all shocked. None of them had expected this outcome.

Dean Xiao nodded slightly. He finally understood why Song Jie had agreed to the bet.

At that moment, Bai Liang's clothes were blasted to shreds, and his arms were somewhat burned.

Fortunately, he had an Armor Magic Tool protecting his body, or the injuries would have been worse.

Bai Liang finally understood what hidden card this guy was holding.

His Light Magic had offensive power, and its might was no small matter!

"Bai Liang used a magic tool during the duel—isn't that a bit excessive?" a professor suddenly remarked.

"What's the big deal? External tools are also part of one's strength." The Lightning Element Dean said.

The others didn't argue. They looked at Dean Xiao, and seeing that he remained silent, they said nothing more.

"I admit you're strong, but that's all you've got!" Bai Liang didn't want to drag things out with Song Jie, so he intended to end the fight.

Forty-nine star particles emerged in Bai Liang's mind, connecting into a Star Track as he slowly began to trace a Star Pattern!

"Radiance!"

"Laser!"

But at that moment, Song Jie had already completed his magic and released it toward Bai Liang.

A golden laser shot fiercely from his palm, unstoppable, swift as lightning!

"An Elementary Level Magic—it can't hurt me at all!" He had been careless earlier, which was why Song Jie had sent him flying.

This time, he chose not to dodge but to tank the hit head-on while completing his Intermediate Level Magic to finish Song Jie!

The time needed to complete an Intermediate Level Magic was different from that of an Elementary Level Magic.

If one was very proficient with an Elementary Level Magic, they could complete it in about a second.

Thus, the release time depended on proficiency—the more proficient, the shorter the time.

Therefore, the Elementary Level Magic Song Jie released would definitely be faster than Bai Liang's!

Golden Laser!

A flash passed by!

The once supremely confident Bai Liang was sent flying again by Song Jie's laser, crashing heavily out of the competition area.

The crowd froze on the spot, motionless, as if even their breathing had stopped.

Bai Liang had lost just like that?

They could hardly believe it, and even harder to believe was the strength Song Jie had displayed.

How absurd!

Could Light Element really be used this way?

"Teacher, this has nothing to do with me. I told you just now," Song Jie said, directly shifting the blame.

Though he knew Bai Liang was fine, he wanted to avoid trouble whenever possible.

"..." The examining teacher fell silent instantly.

The professors sitting in a row said nothing, as if they had discovered a new continent.

It seemed something had clicked, and they hurriedly checked Song Jie's file, finally finding the four words written in the talent column.

—Mutated Light Element!

"Our Light Element Academy has struck gold!" the dean of the Light Element Academy said, grinning from ear to ear.

He hadn't thought highly of Song Jie earlier, simply because the latter was too arrogant.

Light Element against Lightning Element?

How could that be!

But now, Song Jie had slapped everyone in the face, leaving a stinging burn.

At this moment, Liu Xiaotian in his seat couldn't stay calm—he had just bet his brother's Shoe Magic Tool!

And now, Bai Liang had lost the match, and the final winner was actually Song Jie!

"How could this..." Liu Xiaotian looked utterly defeated, never expecting Bai Liang to lose!

Dean Xiao nodded in satisfaction, feeling that Song Jie's performance was excellent among his peers.

He wasn't arrogant, his moves were clean and decisive, and even after winning, he remained as calm as still water.

Such a state of mind was rare for someone his age.

"Everyone, you can give them their scores now," Dean Xiao said, looking at the stunned professors to his left and right.

"Scores! Scores!" The professors nodded one after another, scoring Song Jie and Bai Liang.

In the end, Song Jie's score crushed Bai Liang's, and the comprehensive score was the same!

Bai Liang was fine after being hit, but seeing the scores made him extremely displeased.

Because he had been directly crushed by Song Jie, he didn't even rank second, dropping straight to third!

What frustrated him most was that in the magic competition he thought he would dominate, he ended up losing without even casting a single spell!

There were plenty of young masters from Magic City families sitting there, and he had completely lost face.

"Go take your seats first. We'll tell you who's been accepted later," the examining teacher said to Song Jie and Bai Liang.

The two nodded and returned to the audience.

And at this moment, Song Jie had gone from being invisible to the center of attention!

Seeing Song Jie return, Liu Xiaotian gritted his teeth but finally turned around with a forced smile and said, "Song Jie, just pretend that bet was nothing but a fart. Can you give me back the Shoe Magic Tool..."

"Sure, this Shoe Magic Tool is worth however much money—bring that much to redeem it," Song Jie said bluntly.
