The most powerful wizard in the magic world

The apprentices of the academy gathered in a remote playground, the candlelight flickering, reflecting the tension and expectation on everyone's face. Gerling stood on a high platform, looking around at his companions, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. He knew that this bloody fight was not just a test, but also a cruel life-and-death contest.

"Gerlin, are you ready?" Catherine trembled slightly, her voice revealing a hint of uneasiness. Her long golden hair flowed in the candlelight, and her eyes flickered with fear of the unknown.

"We are ready. We must go all out." Gerling paused, trying to make his voice firm. "For honor and survival, we cannot retreat."

"I heard that the academy will give 'contribution points' for this mission. The higher the level of the kill, the richer the reward." Catherine gritted her teeth, as if summarizing what must be done.

"Yes, contribution points can improve our status or be used to exchange for some valuable resources." Gerlin's eyes gradually became firm. He knew that this game not only meant survival, but also the possibility of changing the future. "However, we must act cautiously and not act impulsively."

At this moment, the gate of the arena slowly opened, and the apprentices from the opposite camp walked out, all with serious expressions, revealing a tense and suppressed aura. Gerlin's heart tightened, he knew that these people would be his real opponents tonight.

"Humph, they look like nothing more than that." A burly apprentice shouted from the opposite side, "Get ready to die!"

Gerling clenched his fists, anger burning in his heart. He took a deep breath, turned to Catherine and said, "We must make good use of the team's strength and concentrate our firepower to kill their core members to increase our chances of survival."

"I understand." Catherine nodded, determination flashing in her eyes, "We must not let them succeed!"

With the referee's order, the battle officially began! The apprentices from both sides immediately rushed forward. It seemed that in an instant, thousands of roars and the sound of metal colliding mixed together, and the entire playground turned into a paradise of battle.

Gellin quickly found a weapon, and with the sound of gunfire ringing in his ears, he chose to run towards a young apprentice who was obviously the "core" of the other party. The man stood alone at the back, with a hint of confidence in his eyes.

"Are you their hope?" Gerlin taunted, while gathering strength to launch an attack, "I will kill you tonight!"

"Kill me? How ridiculous." The other party smiled contemptuously, not afraid at all, "Let me see how capable you are!"

The battle began, and Gellin and the young apprentice showed their respective skills. The two sides clashed fiercely, and the air was filled with blood under the flash of swords and shadows. Gellin's attack was sharp and fast, but the apprentice reacted very quickly and tried to avoid it like a flexible wolf.

"I have some skills, but I'm just a small-time figure in the academy." He responded calmly, still without any fear in his eyes.

At this time, Catherine was not willing to fall behind. She chose another apprentice among her opponents and was struggling hard. The battles between the two sides started one after another, and the atmosphere on the scene became more and more tense. While confronting her opponent, Gerlin kept an eye on Catherine from time to time, and took good care of every possible opportunity to support her.

"Catherine, be careful!" Gerling suddenly saw her being attacked by a strong man, and immediately shouted and rushed towards the strong man. After several struggles, Gerling hit the strong man hard, and then turned around to rescue Catherine.

"Thank you, Gerling!" Catherine breathed quickly, her eyes sparkling with gratitude in the candlelight, "Let's go together, okay?"

"Of course." Gerlin nodded firmly, "Let's get rid of these people first, and then find a chance to hunt down their core!"

After a fierce battle, the surrounding atmosphere gradually became filled with a breath of death, and more and more apprentices fell. The bloody smell brought by each attack was suffocating, and Gerlin's face showed a little more anger, but the will in his heart became stronger.

"Kill them! Don't let anyone live!" The other party's commanding voice came, and Gerlin looked at Catherine beside him, his eyes revealing fearless determination.

"We won't lose to them! Remember what we are fighting for!" Gerlin roared, his heart full of fighting spirit.

In this split second, Catherine seized the opportunity again, waving the weapon in her hand and rushing towards the opponent's apprentice, hitting him hard in the waist. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the tenacious opponent finally couldn't help himself and fell heavily to the ground with an unwilling cry.

"Well done!" Gerling shouted, almost cheering with excitement. The strength and courage that Catherine had accumulated in the battle seemed to be sublimated at this moment.

"Don't be too happy too soon, we're not over yet!" Catherine warned, with a hint of vigilance in her eyes.

Gerlin's eyes flashed, and he glanced into the depths of the battlefield, and found that the opponent's core young apprentice was still sitting firmly in the back, ready to launch a counterattack.

"Catherine, we have to destroy that guy!" Gerlin shouted loudly, leading Catherine to break through and rush towards the young apprentice. At the same time, the battle continued around them, and the shouts of the apprentices rose and fell, making people feel desperate and excited.

After a brutal fight, Gellin finally faced the young apprentice. The exchange of glances between them seemed to freeze the whole world in an instant. The young apprentice had a hint of sarcasm on his face, and did not shy away.

"Want to kill me? Unfortunately, you are not qualified!" He responded coldly with a hint of disdain.

"How do you know if you don't try?" Gerlin roared, drew his weapon, and rushed towards the target with no mercy.

The young apprentice sneered, dodged as nimbly as a snake, and made a backhand move, like a whirlwind, hitting Gerlin in the face. Gerlin reacted quickly, dodged sideways, felt the whistling sound of the wind, and sweat ran down his heart.

"You really have potential, but today we have to end here!" The young apprentice looked calm, his eyes fixed on Gerlin, as if he had already grasped victory in his hands.

The battle between the two sides became more and more intense. Under the sword and shadow, Gerlin tried his best, breathing heavily unconsciously as he mastered the rhythm. But he knew in his heart that this moment was the key to prove himself, and he could not give up easily.
