(From MC’s perspective)
Little Star Gate High School,
Combat class,
After hearing from Frank, I laughed quietly to myself. This guy’s ultimate goal is to harm me. But, in order to deal with me, he devised such a scheme. Everyone is probably thinking he’s bluffing.
But I have a feeling he’ll just do what he says. When it comes time for me to spar. This guy is going to show his fangs.
“How am I going to proceed?”
“Do I have to show my magic?”
Lucas Brad muttered something to himself.
When I heard that, a wide smile spread across my face. Then I realized that everyone has a problem. Particularly when it comes to Lucas. I’ve never seen him perform his magic before.
He had defeated his opponent the previous time without using magic. “Lucas, you’re thinking too much,” I chuckled.
“What’s up, brother?” Lucas Brad’s response was embarrassing. He almost ignores the person standing next to him. He is well aware that his problem is in no way comparable to that of his brother Vincent.
After seeing the fatty’s expression, I let out a small laugh. I then retracted my thoughts and returned my attention to the duel stage.
Frank Lambert was unsettled. Even though he spoke clearly, people do not believe him. Then his gaze was drawn to the other top ten elite wizards.
He sneered inside after seeing their displeasure, “Hmph, losers.” Frank doesn’t care about their opinions except for the top three wizards above him.
He is well aware that they are unconcerned about his actions. Then, turning to face the combat instructor, he said, “I’m serious about this, instructor. It’s fine if no one wants to gain any experience.”
After saying that, he turned to face the wizard students, arms crossed.
Freeman, the combat instructor, finally lowers his brows. He realizes that Frank is serious and not joking. Freeman thought it would be interesting to watch a sparring match.
Then he turned to the wizard students and said quietly, “Okay, if anyone wants to have a friendly spar with Frank, please step forward.”
His words were heard by everyone.
“Are you going, Brother Vincent?” Lucas Brad inquired about the person sitting next to him.
My eyes twinkled with delight when I heard that.
“System, probe the details of Frank Lambert,” I said to the system.

In front of my eyes was a large status panel. My attention was drawn immediately to the attributes. My lips curved into a gentle arc after seeing the statistics.
To think that Victoria is such a vast improvement over Frank. I believe she might had the same opportunity as I did. I can’t think of anything other than powerful relics.
While I believe Frank is progressing normally.
Then I noticed Frank’s arrogant posture. I turned around to see if anyone was willing to step forward. Even if it’s a friendly spar, I doubt Frank will be gentle. He’ll use some of his power.
That’s probably why people were hesitant to go up.
“A1 class doesn’t deserve cowards like you,” Frank Lambert said angrily.
When he was finished speaking, the room fell silent. Nobody expected him to say something like that.
“Way too much!”
“Damn, if I had the strength, I’d beat this m***r down.”
“Frank is going too far.”
The bottom-ranked wizard’s expression darkened. In a rage, some of them gnashed their teeth. Others were completely helpless. They are, without a doubt, weak. Few chose to suffer the humiliation.
Similarly, people had a wide range of reactions. Even some of the top ten felt there was something wrong with Frank.
I laughed quietly to myself. Frank’s strategy could work. Because the combat instructor made no objections. That is, he also supports his means.
A silhouette jumped onto the duel stage and took a position opposite Frank.
Gasp
Everyone exclaimed when they recognized the individual. Because that person is not at the bottom of the list.
Even I am taken aback by his appearance. Max Cooper is the 9th-rank Fire elemental wizard.
He has a muscular build and tanned skin. His hair and eyes were both browns. He stands 5.9 feet tall.
He appears to be an elite-level wizard based on his appearance. But I doubt the duel will be a friendly duel any longer.
“System, probe the details of Max Cooper,” I said to the system.

In front of my eyes was a large status panel. However, after reviewing the statistics, I wrinkled my brow. He appears to be weaker than Liam Baker. However, he is still ranked ninth.
Then I realized what was wrong. The top ten positions had never changed significantly. Because there had not been many ranking duels between the top ten wizards.
The top ten wizards rarely challenged each other. This demonstrates that they were at ease in their situation. So, with the exception of the top three, the current ranking of the top ten wizards may not be accurate.
Everyone’s attention was drawn to the sudden change in circumstances.
Freeman, the combat instructor, is torn between laughing and crying. He had hoped for something like this to happen earlier. “Max, what are you going to do?” he asked, looking at Max.
Freeman understands that this is not a ranking contest. But he still wants to be certain.
Max politely responded to the combat instructor’s words, “It’s an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn from Brother Frank, Instructor. So I won’t be missing it.”
“Is it a friendly spar?” Freeman inquired.
Max responded with a nod. He is not a moron for challenging Frank Lambert. He is aware of his limitations; his strength is nowhere near that of Frank.
Frank, on the other hand, twitched. He is not expecting anyone from the top ten to show up. It’s counterproductive to his plan. Recognizing that, his face had darkened.
The image of a specific person flashed before his eyes.
Then his gaze was drawn to Vincent Carey. Frank’s heart boiled with rage as he noticed a smirk from Vincent. In front of that person, his actions became ridiculous.
A cold glint flashed into Frank’s eyes as he turned to face Max Cooper. A strong determination rose in his heart; he will not let anyone ruin his plan.
When the duel began, a silver color screen encircled the duel stage like a dome cage.
Inside,
“Don’t forget, it’s a friendly spar,” the Combat instructor reminded him. The light in his eyes had been dimmed slightly.
But Frank was dead set on ending this match with a single blow.
Max Cooper’s unexpected appearance irritated him. He felt he had become a joke in front of Vincent’s eyes, especially after seeing his smirk.
His blood was boiling with rage. Frank used his magical power before Max realized it.
In his hands is a bright silver spear. It appeared in an instant. Then he raised his spear against Max and dashed at full speed toward him.
“Tiger’s roar,” Frank said.
He cast the magic spell while moving. Frank could feel the power of the spell rising from his spear.
The next second, he hurled the spear at his opponent, Max Cooper, who stood dumbfounded.
Frank only used half of the spell’s power. However, it was sufficient to defeat the opponent.
Max, on the other hand, awoke from a coma after realizing the threat. He immediately cast the self-defense spell.
“Flame Wall,” Max said.
In the next second, a fire wall formed in front of him in an instant. Max continued to pour his mana frantically.
However, it was too late. In the next second, Frank’s spear strikes the flame wall. The devastating blow destroyed the opponent’s defensive spell.
Tiger’s roar, Frank’s attack spell was activated. When the tip of the spear made contact with the flame wall, it made a roaring sound.
BOOM 𝚍ｎ𝚘ｖ𝚕.𝚝
The flame wall disintegrated. Max’s defensive spell couldn’t keep the spear in place. Max was thrown away like a broken kite by the impact and crashed into the silver cage.
Max passed out on the spot the next second.
The duel ended in the blink of an eye.
Outside,
Everyone was taken aback by the outcome. The atmosphere became deafeningly quiet.
No one dared to open their mouth at this time.
