Chapter 1864 - Siren

The five howling tornados picked up stones and debris, making the space look as though it was the end of the world. The tornado rose and crashed straight into the tsunami.

The dense and heavy tsunami did not actually endure any longer before it was torn apart to become a light drizzle.

The sky cleared up, leaving only the five tornados standing ever stronger, towering high and advancing towards Jasper.

Jasper's expression changed. He lifted his hand, and created a water shield to block out the wind blades flying out of the tornados as he chanted a spell while moving back, keeping his gaze locked on Aulden.

The rain fell on Jasper, wetting his clothes, and the wind blades from the tornados slit his clothes and left cuts on him, but Jasper's gaze was still locked on Aulden. His gaze pierced through the tornado and the curtain of rain, and was locked on that face with a victorious smile.

It was a duel between two 7th-tier magic casters in their top form, and the audience was absorbed in the match.

Aulden's power was also something that caught the audience's attention.

Before the Magic Caster Tournament, there were even people who did not know that the Collier Family had such a young and powerful magic caster. Even the disciple of the Magus Tower's president could not win against him.

The powerful tornado tore the stone ground apart, and squeezed in towards Jasper. As the tornado gained increasing power and inched closer, Jasper was left with nowhere to go.

Brent glanced at Richard, who was pulling a long face, and felt rather anxious.

The Magus Tower would always send disciples to join in every Magic Caster Tournament. Training disciples was one of the reasons why the Magic Caster Tournament was held. For all these years, almost every year, there would appear disciples from the Magus Tower who would be able to enter the finals, or even clinch the championship.

However, if Jasper lost, all of the Magus Tower's disciples would be eliminated, and it would be Aulden, who was from a family of magic casters, and Amy, Krassu's disciple, entering the finals.

The situation seemed to be irreversible, and Aulden was just standing far away with his arms folded, watching with a seeming smile, as though he was mocking that the Magus Tower was just that.

Water started to rise from within the spinning tornado, and refracted into a vibrant rainbow under the glistening sun, making the arena appear rather dreamy.

Jasper, who retreated step by step, paused at the edge of the arena. He looked up at the multicolored rainbow tornado when his eyes suddenly lit up. It seemed like he had a plan.

Is this the end? Aulden watched as Jasper stood at the edge of the arena without moving. He raised the magic wand in his hand.

Just then, a sudden shower poured down, and it was followed by the sound of crashing waves.

What's this? Aulden paused and frowned.

"Aaaaaaah~~~"

A melodious voice rang in his ears. It seemed to be coming from somewhere far away. It was an enchanting voice, and accompanied by the sound of waves lapping, it was simply music to the ears.

Aulden saw a large area of sea. It was blue, and the waves made the water move up and down. A moon hung high up in the sky, and a beautiful silhouette rose from the surface of the sea. It stepped on the waves and walked towards him. Her curves were a work of art under the dim moonlight, and her enchanting voice was even more bewitching.

The tornados suddenly paused on the spot, and stopped closing in on Jasper.

"What's wrong with him?" The audience looked at Aulden, confused.

Aulden appeared to be in a daze, and there was no more movement from the magic wand in his hand. He was just standing still, looking into the distance in front blankly, as though he had seen something unbelievable.

Meanwhile, Jasper was standing at the edge of the arena, looking at Aulden with a smile.

Such a strange scene made the audience confused.

"Did Jasper break through?" Brent exclaimed.

"Yes. The stress gave him the motivation to break through. The destroyed tsunami gave him the opportunity to break through. This battle is very beneficial to him." Richard finally smiled.

The elders from the Magus Tower all let out a collective sigh of relief upon hearing that, and smiles returned to their faces.

It would be very embarrassing if a Magus Tower disciple lost to a son of magic casters.

"The qualifying match for this year's tournament is so exhilarating! These two contestants actually broke through during the battle!"

"That goes to show that what Master Krassu said in the past was true. A magic caster, like the knights, could improve during a battle."

"I am going to sign up for next year's tournament as well. Even if I don't get a good ranking, I can at least gain some battle experience."

The viewing station where the Magus Tower disciples were also exploded with excited chatter.

Jasper held his magic wand, and suddenly pointed in front.

A water column suddenly appeared in front of Aulden, and banged right into his chest.

Just when Aulden was about to touch that woman, he was suddenly aroused from the illusion. His body was already flying out uncontrollably from the impact of the water column. He landed outside the arena, and skidded for meters on his back before coming to a stop.

The five tornados lost control all of a sudden, and they started dashing around in all directions. After the tornados exited the arena, they were pinched away by the judge.

"Jasper, the winner!"

The audience went wild!

They had once again witnessed a breakthrough in a battle and an epic comeback.

Although everyone was confused about how Aulden lost, that did not affect their perception of how strong Jasper was.

"I… you…" Aulden finally came back to his senses, and realized that he actually fell for Jasper's illusion. That voice and that woman were all fake. Aulden could not help but blush with embarrassment.

"You actually broke through!" Aulden quickly realized that Jasper's aura was a lot stronger. Aulden's expression changed quickly. His biggest goal in attending this Magic Caster Tournament was to push himself to break through. He did not expect that the one who advanced would be Jasper. However, he still was a little indignant, and said, "What spell did you use just now?"

"Siren," Jasper replied calmly. There was an inconcealable joy in his eyes. He gave Aulden a fist and palm salute, and said, "I still have to thank you for allowing me to find the opportunity to break through."

"Number 36, Jasper, wins!"

The judge announced the results of this round.

Aulden climbed up from the ground, and told Jasper seriously, "When I break through to the 8th-tier, I will be back for you again."

"Anytime."

"Remember what you said." Aulden turned to leave, with his chest up and head high, as proud as he always was.

Jasper watched Aulden's silhouette disappear at the exit area before turning to move towards the contestant waiting area.

"The name list for this year's Magic Caster Tournament finals is out. Contestant number zero, Amy, versus number 36, Jasper. According to the rules, both parties have 15 minutes to rest. Both contestants, please proceed to go for your break."

The emcee's voice echoed around once again.

The staff of Magus Tower started to quickly repair the destroyed battleground.

"Big Brother, what did you do to that other big brother just now? I saw him giving a weird expression." Amy, who saw Jasper sit down beside her, quickly posed that question just before he closed his eyes to rest.

Jasper froze immediately.
