"The victor is Bell Menethil!"

After staring at Bell for a while, the man in charge of the referee finally announced the decision reluctantly.

This was the last match of the day's tests. Bell's opponent was a strong physique with arms that could run a horse.

However, despite the imposing physique of this body cultivator, he was unable to touch Bell at all, thanks to Bell's exquisite Curses control.

This is also the most awkward aspect of the physical cultivation path.

Before one's ability to control spiritual energy reaches a certain level, body cultivators are completely incapable of ranged attacks.

Of course, they could also choose to take out their staffs and approach while casting spells.

But for these fanatical muscle enthusiasts, that was nothing short of blasphemy!

Therefore, they would not do that unless it was a life-or-death battle.

This results in physical cultivators often being unable to even reach their opponents when facing stronger opponents, leading to embarrassing defeats.

Looking at Bell, who stood calmly and impeccably dressed in the arena, everyone's emotions were somewhat complicated.

While luck plays a significant role in the first-place finisher's victory due to the competition format, it doesn't mean that the two finalists are necessarily stronger than everyone else.

For example, the physical training student who was Bell's opponent was only ranked in the upper echelons among the third-year students in the Upper Academy. There were several other students whose strength was comparable to his.

Regardless, the students and teachers of the Academy always felt ashamed that Bell, a British Wizards who had only been there for less than a day, had won first place.

After surveying the strange atmosphere in the arena, Bell, who was already too lazy to give any victory speech, silently walked off the ring.

There, his younger sister and girlfriend were already excitedly preparing to welcome his victorious return.

"Hahahaha! I knew I wasn't wrong! You really do have some skills!"

"You probably didn't have enough fun in that match just now, right? How about a match with me?"

With a loud bang, Wu Shuang, whom I had met briefly at the Teleportation Array the night before, suddenly fell from the sky and crashed onto the arena behind Bell.

He looked at Bell with excitement. Judging from his posture, if it weren't for Bell's status British Wizards and the fear of causing diplomatic problems, he would have smashed it directly on Bell's head, leaving Bell no choice.

"Um, Mr. Wu Shuang, is this appropriate?"

Bell asked uncertainly.

Deep down, he really wanted to try his hand at fighting the other person.

He could sense that Mr. Wu Shuang exuded a completely different aura compared to the gentlemen around him who were responsible for hosting the competition and maintaining order.

He even felt that even if all the other gentlemen joined forces, they might not be a match for this Mr. Wu Shuang.

This can be seen from the fact that the other gentlemen immediately fell silent after Wu Shuang appeared.

"What's wrong with it? Does anyone object?"

As she spoke, Wu Shuang glanced around at the crowd below the arena.

But all that answered him was silence.

The gentlemen all lowered their heads, looking down at their noses and silent.

Just kidding, they don't want that troublemaker to set his sights on them.

As the chief array master of the Yandu Academy, if the other party really targets them and causes trouble, even the dean might not be able to help.

Since the teachers were silent, the group of students, who were always eager to stir up trouble, were even less likely to object.

They're just hoping for more excitement to watch.

"If no one speaks, then everyone agrees."

"So, Little Bell, are you going to fight or not? Give me a straight answer!"

Wu Shuang urged impatiently.

He hates people who are indecisive and fussy.

"Beat!"

Coincidentally, Bell also dislikes nagging people.

Therefore, seeing that none of the gentlemen present had voiced any objections, he accepted their challenge without hesitation.

At the same time, he waved his hand behind him, signaling Shanna and Hermione to step back.

No matter what, Mr. Wu Shuang must be better than Ma Jingjing, right?

Furthermore, according to Ma Jingjing, the opponent is also an Arrays Cultivator, so the scope of the upcoming battle will likely be quite large.

For safety's sake, it would be better to have Shanna and Hermione, especially Hermione, stay a bit further away.

"Good! That's satisfying!"

Let's find another place to fight, otherwise these people will get in the way and we won't be able to enjoy the game properly.

As she spoke, Wu Shuang took out a formation plate from her bosom and tossed it into the air.

The array rapidly expanded, eventually becoming a giant disc with a diameter of about 10 meters.

"Follow me!"

After calling out to Bell, Wu Shuang leaped into the array plate.

As Wu Shuang got closer to the array plate, her figure became smaller and smaller. Once she was completely inside the array plate, in the eyes of the people outside, Wu Shuang looked like a tiny person, no bigger than a thumb, from Lilliput.

I glanced at the array plate in front of me with curiosity. This technique for opening up another dimension was even more advanced than the Undetectable Extension Charm.

The Undetectable Extension Charm cannot change the relative size of people or objects inside or outside a space.

Suppressing his curiosity for the time being, Bell didn't want to keep the other party waiting too long, as that would be too impolite.

Thinking that he would borrow the array plate from Wu Shuang to study it after the competition, Bell also jumped into the array plate.

Upon entering the array, Bell discovered that it was much larger than he had imagined.

This place not only has mountains and trees, but also rivers and lakes. If you add some animals and insects, it can be called a world of its own.

"How about it? I specially made this Mountains and Rivers Plate for the competition."

Here, you can freely unleash your magic without worrying about affecting the outside world.

Furthermore, please rest assured that I have not made any prior arrangements here; the competition will be absolutely fair and impartial.

Wu Shuang said to Bell with a smug look on her face.

"You're joking. Of course I trust your character. So, may we begin?"

It's getting late, hurry up and finish this game, he still needs to go eat.

"Haha! We can start anytime, bring it on!"

You can use all of your wizarding magical tools freely, since it's no longer an entrance exam.

Wu Shuang stood still and waved, signaling to Bell that he could begin the attack.

Although Arrays Cultivator are a profession that relies heavily on taking the initiative, the age difference is a significant factor, and he couldn't bring himself to launch the first attack.

Moreover, once you reach his level, whether you go first or second doesn't really matter that much.

Everything depends on how you adapt to the situation during battle.
