Chapter 718: Guest at the Finals
"Now begins the fourth round of the ranking competition, which is the top 16 competition. The sixteen students who won the previous round will compete one-on-one, and the winner will advance to the top eight."
"The first round of the top 16 match will be between Jiang Chen from the Imperial College's headquarters and Lu Sheng from the Fourth Branch of the Imperial College. Please take the field."
…
Listening to the voice coming from his ears, Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes.
He saw that he was standing in a corner under the stands, alone, far away from other students.
It seems that no one wants to approach him, or dare not approach him.
Jiang Chen could only smile helplessly at this, and then quickly walked towards the center of the field.
Coming to the center of the field with him was a very handsome black-haired boy.
The young man stood opposite Jiang Chen, deliberately keeping a long distance apart.
The look in his eyes that looked at Jiang Chen was obviously solemn, nervous, and even a little fearful.
"Both sides please make final preparations. The battle will begin in thirty seconds!"
At this time, the middle-aged bald man standing on the side said something, and then he looked at Jiang Chen with a serious face: "Remind me again, don't kill me!"
After saying that, he put the hourglass on the ground and turned to leave.
Soon, the sand leaked out, and a transparent light curtain enveloped the air.
"Here, I'm Lu Sheng, please enlighten me."
The black-haired boy raised his magic wand, nervousness visible to the naked eye.
"How about you give up?"
Jiang Chen curled his lips and said, "If you are afraid of being like this, can you still fight?"
"I, I'm not afraid, don't underestimate me!"
Lu Sheng mustered up the courage to shout, and then recited the magic spell skillfully.
It must be said that he recited the spell very quickly, and a flame bird condensed from the fire element appeared in mid-air.
Although this flame bird was not big, it was extremely fast. With a "whoosh" sound, it flew through the air and flew close to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen could feel a wave of heat coming towards his face.
He quickly tapped the ground and dodged to the side.
Immediately, the flame bird passed by Jiang Chen and flew behind.
The blow missed.
But then, the Flame Bird suddenly turned around and pounced from behind Jiang Chen!
"Um?"
Jiang Chen's expression changed slightly. He noticed the burning heat coming from behind him. He immediately activated the magic power in his body and reached out to snap his fingers.
Suddenly, a pair of rock armor condensed from earth elements covered his whole body.
This is the earth defense magic "Earth Armor"!
Bang!
With a loud bang, the flame bird hit the rock armor on Jiang Chen's back. With a flash of fire, the flame bird disappeared.
This magic didn't seem to be very powerful, and the rock armor was unscathed.
Immediately, Jiang Chen took action.
He threw three magic bullets in succession, forcing the opponent to keep dodging.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chen activated his magic power and raised his hand.
The ground beneath the opponent's feet suddenly trembled, and only a "boom" was heard.
A giant hand made of rock suddenly emerged from the ground, then grabbed the opponent's body and lifted it into the air.
Lu Sheng's body was held by the giant rock hand, and there was a heart-wrenching "click" sound.
"I-I give up!"
Lu Sheng shouted with pain on his face.
Jiang Chen put down his hand expressionlessly, and the giant rock hand immediately collapsed into rubble.
"In this ranking battle, Imperial College Headquarters Jiang Chen wins!"
The middle-aged bald man quickly announced the result of the battle.
At the same time, Jiang Chen felt dizzy in his mind, and his eyes fell into darkness again.
…
"The fourth game of the quarterfinals will begin next. Jiang Chen from the Imperial College's headquarters will face Field, the third branch of the Imperial College. Please be prepared."
Listening to the voice coming from his ears, Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes.
This time, the opponent was a tall and burly young man.
This man looked at Jiang Chen and did not show any fear. Instead, he spoke very calmly: "Remember my name. My name is Field. I am the man who wants to become a great mage. You will be defeated by me." superior!"
However, as the battle began, the burly young man named Field was directly knocked to the ground by Jiang Chen's spinning water arrow.
Then, the battle ended without any suspense.
"In this ranking battle, Imperial College Headquarters Jiang Chen wins!"
The middle-aged bald man quickly announced the result of the battle.
Jiang Chen looked calm and closed his eyes very consciously.
…
"The second round of the semi-finals battle will be between Imperial College headquarters Jiang Chen and Imperial College headquarters Xiuer. Please be prepared."
Listening to the familiar voice in his ears, Jiang Chen regained consciousness and opened his eyes.
This time, the opponent was a blond boy who looked very thin and wore a monocle on his left eye.
Jiang Chen had met him before, but there was no interaction with him.
After the competition officially started, the blond boy named Shuer did not attack.
I saw him holding his monocle, and then said: "Jiang Chen, I have watched every game of yours. You can skillfully use the four intermediate magics of wind, fire, water, and earth, and you are very calm, even Somewhat cold-blooded.”
"What do you want to say?"
Jiang Chen was a little puzzled.
Shuer then said: "I have analyzed it, I am not your opponent, I admit defeat."
Jiang Chen's eyes were slightly stunned, and he couldn't help but take a closer look at the young man wearing a monocle in front of him.
"In this ranking match, Imperial College Headquarters Jiang Chen wins. Congratulations on entering the finals!"
Immediately, the middle-aged bald man announced the result of the match.
Jiang Chen closed his eyes silently.
After about ten seconds, he opened his eyes again, because the familiar dizziness did not come.
In front of him, the middle-aged bald man was looking at him in confusion: "What are you doing?"
Jiang Chen wanted to say "I'm waiting to get dizzy", but after thinking about it, he held back.
He said: "Wait for the next opponent."
The middle-aged bald man: "The final will start in thirty minutes, you can go to rest first."
Jiang Chen: "No need to rest."
"It's up to you."
The middle-aged bald man turned and left.
In the center of the huge venue, only Jiang Chen was left standing here silently.
Not long after, a young man in a gorgeous robe came over.
He came to Jiang Chen and whispered in his ear: "Let me win the next game, I will give you a fortune, otherwise, you will regret it."
"Regret?"
Jiang Chen looked at the other party with interest.
"That girl named Irene must be very important to you, otherwise she wouldn't have been brought to the academy."
The boy smiled and then said, "I have invited her to visit my secret room."
