(From MC’s perspective)
Little Star Gare High School,
Duel Stage,
Finally, I walked into the duel stage. And Danny Quinn stood opposite me a couple of seconds later. Seeing that the silver barrier is going to envelop the stage.
I decided to probe Danny’s status. After recalling my previous experience with Victoria, I concentrated more and instructed the system, “System, show me Danny Quinn’s status.”
[Ding! The Host’s command is recognised.]
[Ding! Level-Up System, 1.1 is ready.]
[Status Panel]

[Soul Power – lvl.2(38)]
[Constitution – lvl.2(36)]
[Mental Power- lvl.2(46)]
[Spells – 2]
>> 1. Mental Shock 2. Mental Shield.
A wide status panel appeared in front of my eyes. I was mentally prepared but looking at his power I couldn’t help but be shocked to the core.
No wonder, Victoria was one step behind him. This guy has such an outrageous status. Every attribute of his was way higher than Victoria’s. This guy is a troublesome spiritual wizard.
I heard spiritual wizards are rare like taboo and sub-taboo existence. I wonder what category he belongs to. Shaking my head, I looked at his other attributes.
Finally, my gaze spelt on his two spells.
Seeing that my expression turned a bit solemn. So this is the reason why he seemed confident of defeating me. Because so far I have defeated my opponent by engaging in close combat.
Even my previous duel against Victoria. I had to close in so that I could cover my spell range. But this time, it’s going to be tricky. My mind springs up in action to find a solution.
Danny’s mental power has almost reached level 3 compared to other attributes. I see it has to do with his spiritual magic power.
This all happened in a couple of seconds.
I see that barrier is going to completely envelop the stadium in a few seconds.
A quick glint flashed in my eyes. There is a chance that I can defeat him without engaging in close combat. But I doubt whether he will survive the attack of my other two spells.
It’s too risky. Then I gritted my teeth and decided to employ the previous tactics. Since I’m level 2, I don’t think his spells can knock me out in one move.
I only need some gaps to use my gravity field.
On the other hand, Danny Quinn saw the expression of Vincent. “He is starting to get serious,” Danny Quinn muttered to himself. But it’s a pity that he is going to cripple him.
When the barrier enveloped the duel stage. The fight started.
Danny Quinn ruthlessly said, “Mental Shock.”
He released his mental spell aimed at Vincent Carey. The one scary aspect of the spiritual wizard is that their spell is invisible to normal eyes.
No normal mage can see their spell.
When the spell was cast, an invisible wave targeted Vincent Carey’s mind.
Clang
At the same time, I charged towards the opponent. When I almost reached closer to the goal, I felt like my mind got hit by a giant hammer.
I felt a head-splitting headache at that moment. I bit my tongue to stay conscious. If not I will faint and lose the duel.
So I got to use this narrow gap. Bearing the pain, I released my spell in counterattack.
“Gravity Field,” I uttered in a low voice pointing my fingers at Danny Quinn.
I mobilized my entire energy to stay focused for a couple of seconds.
On the other hand, Danny Quinn grinned evilly. He sees the swaying body of Vincent Carey. At this moment, he knew his spell had worked. But to cripple Vincent completely.
He needs to chant a few more spells.
Realizing that, Danny Quinn said, “Mental Sch..”
But before he could finish his words. His senses started to alarm him. His expression changed drastically. His face is full of fear.
As a spiritual wizard, he is more aware of the danger and good. When he sensed some danger, he decided to retreat.
But it was too late to do anything. He felt tremendous pressure above him. When he tried to move away, the above pressure completely overwhelmed him.
BANG
He got smashed to the ground brutally.
Pfff
Blood sprayed on the ground. Danny Quinn fainted on the spot. He has suffered a brutal injury. The bones in his body were completely broken.
At the same time, seeing the unconscious body of Danny Quinn. I sighed in relief. But still, the splitting headache didn’t go away. I carefully controlled myself to stand upright. 𝒃𝙚𝙤𝙫𝒆𝒍．𝙘𝒐𝙢
When the silver barrier was brought down, the announcement came.
[Winner of this duel is Vincent Carey.]
[Now he qualifies for the final duel against Brent Dale.]
[Final Match: Vincent Carey vs Brent Dale.]
When I heard the announcement, I closed my eyes and let go of my stubbornness. The next thing I knew I felt my surroundings become dark.
…
Outside,
A couple of minutes ago,
Gasp
The crowd went into a frenzy. Vincent Carey is dashing towards the opponent. Whereas opponent Danny Quinn is standing calmly. Showing no sense of urgency.
Vincent’s strategy is guessed by everyone immediately. It’s similar to the previous duel except the opponent is different this time.
Everyone wants to know what Danny will do in retaliation.
There aren’t many people aware of Danny Quinn’s magic power.
The next second, everyone saw Danny Quinn raising his hand against Vincent. Like he is going to cast some spell.
Everyone wants to see what kind of magic he is going to show. But unfortunately, none of them was able to see except for the empty air.
Participants area,
“Ha…Ha…Ha…,” Brent Dale burst into laughter. How can he not know? He is aware that Danny is releasing his spiritual magic against Vincent.
But the crowd’s gobsmacked expression amused him.
Brent Dale knows Danny Quinn’s strength. No one amongst the students can defeat the spiritual wizard except him. That’s why he is confident that Danny Quinn can cripple the newcomer.
Though he was surprised by Victoria’s unexpected defeat. But he knows Vincent’s tricks were useless against the spiritual wizard.
Once the mental power is damaged. It will be difficult to recover from that injury.
The division students were surprised by Brent Dale’s reaction. This is the first time everyone has seen him laugh. Especially the wizard students from Class A. Everyone is in disbelief.
“What happened to our No.1 Boss?”
“Is he supporting Danny Quinn?”
Everyone started to gossip. Surprisingly, Frank Lambert recovered from his earlier fear. Now he looks forward to Vincent’s defeat. Though he still has some fear left in his heart.
But he believes as long as Vincent is bedridden due to injury. He will take that time to come up with a new plan.
So he hopes Danny Quinn will cause injury to Vincent Carey.
Inside the new viewing block,
Chairman Benjamin is looking at the duel stage. Though he didn’t show any expression on his face. But his heart was not calm.
“I hope he will be light-handed,” he sighed in his heart, looking at Danny Quinn. He is aware of students’ mentality.
The elite students were always proud. Especially the top 10 students in class A1. Now the newcomer has pushed everyone to the sidelines.
This will eventually cause some hatred. At the same time, he is also surprised by Vincent’s rise. Now he is standing on equal feet against the top 3 wizards.
But this will cause some problems. The more talented the wizard the more proud they would be. Since Vincent has defeated Victoria. And hereby damaging the image of the top 3 places.
He feels Danny Quinn will use his full power to defeat the opponent. This was his assumption. But he hopes nothing like that will happen.
But the next second Benjamin’s face changes drastically when he sees Danny Quinn’s stance.
“This kid, is he going to do it?” he frowns. Chairman Benjamin is aware of Danny Quinn’s spiritual magic.
If Danny releases full power, then there is a grave threat to Vincent Carey. There is a high possibility of getting mentally disabled.
Not only him, but the faces of the headmaster Chester Nixon and Class teacher Eric also change drastically.
“What is the need for using spiritual magic against the newcomer?” Eric Wallace’s heart boils in anger.
He knows that certain details regarding Brent Dale and Danny Quinn are kept confidential. So Vincent cannot know about them.
The Headmaster Chester Nixon cursed in his heart, “When did school students become so vengeful?”
From his magic power, he found that the top 2 wizards were in level-2 rank. So this duel’s result was predetermined. There is no need to release the magic.
If Danny uses body strength, he can easily defeat Vincent Carey. But using spiritual magic directly is nothing but life-threatening to the opponent.
Right now three of them are quite alarmed.
