Faced with Leo's eager challenge, let strength determine the ownership of the miniature world.
Roderick was the first to shake his head and refuse, "Everyone knows the master's strength, I'll pass."
As the dean of the academy under the command of the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard, he had heard praise for Leo from his superiors more than once.
It is said that Master Leo has completed his wizarding path and has almost no rivals among those of the same level. He is a top-tier existence and a powerful individual born from wizarding wisdom!
In addition to having killed Level Four Stigmata Wizard and racked up over a hundred million kills, Roderick, Level Three Body-Refining Great Wizard who has been famous for a long time, should have loved challenging the strong to promote his own evolution. However, at this moment, he would rather talk than fight.
Faced with Roderick ' refusal to fight, Leo's eager gaze turned to Peiluoqi behind Charlotte. This Level Three Elemental Great Wizard was even stronger than Roderick, and the ferocious beast head he wore on his face was a powerful magical artifact.
When Peiluoqi saw that Roderick had chosen not to fight in the face of Leo's challenge, he leaned forward as if to accept the challenge, but was immediately stopped by Charlotte.
Charlotte smiled admiringly at Leo and said, "Dean, you flatter us. We know your strength very well; even if all of us attacked together, we wouldn't be a match for you."
"Besides, our relationship is so close, wouldn't it hurt our feelings to resort to violence?"
Charlotte was heartbroken. She had thought that since Leo never interfered in the affairs of the academy and was in seclusion, he could keep the situation here hidden for a few hours.
They don't need to hide for long; an hour is enough for them to establish sovereignty over the world.
He could have waited until things were settled before reporting, and simply said he had received word of a delay to cover it up.
Unexpectedly, Leo was even more vigilant than them and arrived much faster. Not only could they not hide it, but he was now about to lose his position as vice dean.
As for taking action, don't be ridiculous.
According to the intelligence gathered by Green Cottage, during that expedition a hundred years ago, this Dean personally killed another World Lord, even while he was being suppressed by the rules of the other world.
Although intelligence reports suggest that the victory was achieved with the assistance of a mothership and two Level-Surpassing Amplification Magic Array that could boost the level of the enemy.
It seems the Dean didn't contribute much, but Charlotte wanted to say that anyone who had doubts could step in. He believed that even if the support was doubled, these doubters wouldn't be able to kill the World Lord.
Forget about killing them, it would be good enough if even a few could injure the World Lord!
More than a hundred years had passed since the last expedition, and the Dean had been in seclusion for over a hundred years. Who knew how much his strength had grown?
Moreover, this is the Wizard World, where wizards are not subject to the suppression of the World Will. He simply cannot imagine what terrifying level a Dean who can unleash his full power would reach!
At that moment, although he could not sense any presence from the Dean, the pressure from the Dean's gaze alone made him feel a panic that made him want to turn around and run away.
This isn't just facing Level Three Great Wizard; they're probably practically on the verge of becoming Stigmata Wizard!
His Dean is probably only a few steps away from achieving Stigmata!
In this situation, if they were to actually take action, their chances of losing would be over 80%.
Once they lose, there will be no room for maneuver. They will be completely cut off from this miniature world, and it will be impossible for them to find any other reason to possess it.
Therefore, we must not take action; we absolutely must not take action.
"Since I hold the reins of this world, and you refuse to fight me, can you leave now?" Leo's smile was colder than a icy stream.
They acted as if they didn't see Leo's cold indifference towards the unwelcome guest.
"Leaving is not an option. Leaving would mean completely abandoning this world," Roderick said with a smile. "Master is joking again. This world wasn't discovered by you alone. There are teachers from my academy on the other side. If I leave, wouldn't it be a waste of their efforts..."
This was the first time Leo had ever seen Body Refinement Wizard, who usually used fists to reason, say such things. Right now, Roderick was acting like he wouldn't leave or make a move, much like an old lady arguing and being unreasonable.
It was as if a long river was flowing from his mouth; he talked on and on.
Roderick didn't leave, nor did Charlotte and Peiluoqi; they just stood there listening to Roderick's endless ramblings, as if they were listening to some divine text.
Leo's brows twitched from time to time, the veins on his forehead bulged faintly, the heart on the Godslaying Staff pounded, and his hands were clenched into fists.
The people from the Undying Body Academy and Charlotte noticed the change in Leo's expression and instantly became alert. Even Roderick, who had been talking non-stop, lowered his voice several octaves, and everyone secretly circulated their internal magic power.
Beneath the seemingly calm conversation, the elemental fluctuations in the space were actually turbulent and unpredictable, as if a complete explosion was imminent.
Yaoyao's little paws kept rubbing together, and her eyes kept scanning between the two wizards, as if searching for a suitable target to attack.
He was directing the puppets in the Shadow Space. Once Leo made a move, he would immediately release more than three hundred puppets. Even if he couldn't kill these wizards, he would at least hold off a few for Leo.
Just as Leo felt that things were going to get complicated and he needed to take action to deal with the two groups of wizards and quickly secure sovereignty over this world, a sudden spatial fluctuation interrupted Leo plan to act.
This even shifted the initial mutual hostility between Leo, Roderick, and Charlotte into a subtle trend of alliance.
Spatial fluctuations appeared on the scene; these were the spatial fluctuations from a long-distance spatial teleportation array, just as Charlotte and Roderick had done when they appeared.
Every spatial fluctuation inevitably led to a group of wizards emerging from the teleportation array. Each wizard exuded a terrifying aura, and although they did not announce their identities, their powerful presence was the best proof of their status.
After exiting the ultra-long-distance spatial teleportation, they all acted in unison. First, they looked at the spatial rift fixed by the Guardian Wizard, saw the world on the other side of the rift, and after confirming that it was a new world, a flash of fervor crossed their eyes before they looked at the three wizards locked in a stalemate.
When they saw the wizards from Roderick and Peiluoqi, surprise and seriousness flashed in their eyes, probably because they hadn't expected anyone to arrive before them.
When they saw that Leo only had one wizard, their eyes showed obvious contempt. Among the wizard teams present, every one of them had at least ten Level Three Great Wizard, while Leo was all alone.
Upon seeing the wizard's badge on Leo's chest, they immediately bowed in respect, and some wizards even showed expressions of sudden realization, indicating that they knew Leo's identity.
After all, that golden, Special-Class Wizard Medal, shimmering with the fluctuations of Wizard Will, is too easily recognizable. Anyone who pays even a little attention to the major events happening in the Wizard World would surely have heard of Leo's name.
The wizard team that had come from such a great distance was full of confidence, even with proud expressions on their faces, after all, the wizards they brought were the most elite members of the academy.
However, after the spatial fluctuations stopped, all the wizards were stunned, looking left and right repeatedly, as if they had thought of many possible things that might happen, but they did not expect what they saw before them.
Wow, there are a lot of people here!
Anyone who isn't blind can tell they came here because of this newly appeared world; judging from their astonished expressions, they certainly didn't expect so many wizards to be teleported here at the same time.
In less than ten minutes, the spatial fluctuations occurred thirty-five times, meaning that thirty-five new groups of wizards had appeared here.
In each group of wizards, there are at least ten Level Three Wizard, dozens of Level Two Wizard, and not a First-Level Wizard.
There were both Body Refinement Wizard and Elemental Wizard, and thirty-five groups of wizards, which meant that there were nearly four hundred Level Three Great Wizard and more than a thousand Level Two Wizard present.
The quantity cannot be compared to the hundreds of millions of expeditions, but the quality is much higher. This is the first time Leo has ever seen so many Level Three Great Wizard.
Each of them exuded an aura of power, their wizard robes fluttering, and almost all of them wore wizard medals on their chests. Clearly, none of them were weak; they were all strong!
If that were all, Leo could barely accept it, but looking at the uniform markings on their wizard robes, there were also Stigmata Wizard behind them!
Thirty-five wizard teams, plus Roderick and Charlotte, make thirty-seven, which means there are thirty-seven Stigmata Wizard.
This was the first time Leo had ever seen so many Stigmata Wizard; their noses were truly amazing!
"Why are all these wizards like flies that smell rotten eggs? This new world has only been discovered for less than half an hour, and so many people have already arrived?" Yaoyao whispered to Leo, sounding puzzled.
Leo did not answer Yaoyao's question, but watched as the newly appeared wizards raised their fighting spirit to the highest level.
Ten Level Three Great Wizard plus dozens of Level Two Wizard —this is the standard force required to establish a spatial passage.
They are more like an advance force, here to establish a spatial passage. Once the spatial passage is established, the main force of wizards will arrive immediately.
Thirty-seven wizard teams, comprising over a thousand wizards, had not yet actively released their auras, but the energy fluctuations in the space began to rise. The spatial rift was like a powder keg filled with flames; even the slightest spark could trigger a violent explosion.
After a moment of surprise, the wizards quickly accepted the situation, which was completely different from what they had expected. They didn't know how to handle it, and for a moment, no one spoke in front of the spatial rift. They all looked at each other, hoping that someone would break the deadlock.
"This is a new world we've discovered. What's the meaning of so many of you coming? Are you here to celebrate our discovery?"
Finally, Yao Yao broke the eerie silence with her Yaoyao. The longer it dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for Leo. So many wizards had already appeared; there might be even more coming later.
These wizards all have Stigmata Wizard behind them, only Leo does not. The faster he resolves this, the more likely he is to take over this world.
"According to the intelligence we've obtained, this spatial rift is unclaimed and doesn't belong entirely to any one wizard, not even a Legendary Great Wizard!" A later-level Level Three Elemental Great Wizard said to Leo with a strange look in his eyes.
It was obvious that his words were directed at Leo.
Leo looked at the first Level Three Great Wizard who spoke. His aura was surging, and even with so many powerful wizards present, his body was still steadily absorbing energy. Among the nearly four hundred Level Three Great Wizard, his strength was enough to rank in the top ten.
