Idle Mage: Humanity's Strongest Backer-Chapter 369 High-Evolutionary League Finals (I)
Elise steps onto the stage with a beaming smile, "Ladies and gentlemen, we have come to the final day of the Guild Tournament, and what a tournament it has been so far! The Mortal League has crowned its champions, but now it's time for the High-Evolutionary League to take center stage. Today we will witness a battle between the strongest and most evolved beings in the land, as they face off in 1v1 matches to determine who will emerge victorious!"
She pauses, letting the anticipation build in the audience before continuing, "The rules are simple: the first to defeat their opponent wins the match. There are no disqualifications, no timeouts, and no holds barred. The only thing that matters is strength, skill, and strategy. So, without further ado, let's begin!"
The crowd cheers as Elise steps off the stage, and the first pair of contestants enter the arena.
Two males appeared in the arena, both wearing solemn expressions as they sized up each other.
Elise stepped into the center of the arena and cleared her throat to address the audience. "Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you our first combatants for the High-Evolutionary League finals. On my right, we have the Star King Stage swordsman, Ren. And on my left, the Star King Stage Spell Caster, Kael."
[A/N: Just a reminder for everybody: The High-Evolutionary Stages are divided into several ranks, which are: Void, Star Child, Star Lord, Star King, World Sage, Cosmic Emperor, and Divine God.]
The audience erupted in cheers as the two contestants entered the arena, each exuding a powerful aura that made the air around them crackle with energy. Ren unsheathed his sword and Kael raised his hands, ready to cast his spells. Please visit ƒ𝐫𝗲𝒆𝑤𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝙚𝚕. 𝒄o𝓂
The referee signaled for the start of the match, and the two contestants charged toward each other with fierce determination in their eyes.
Ren swung his sword in a wide arc, aiming to strike Kael from the side, but the Spell Caster quickly evaded the attack with a nimble dodge. Kael retaliated with a barrage of fireballs that Ren deflected with his sword, the impact sending shockwaves across the arena.
The two continued to exchange blows, each one countering the other's attacks with equal skill and agility. Ren's swordsmanship was precise and calculated, while Kael's spellcasting was fluid and versatile.
As the battle raged on, the two contestants began to tire, their breathing becoming labored and their movements slowing. Ren took advantage of this, charging at Kael with a powerful overhead strike that would surely end the match.
However, Kael had one last trick up his sleeve. With a flick of his wrist, he summoned a powerful gust of wind that knocked Ren off balance and sent him flying across the arena.
As Ren struggled to get back on his feet, Kael unleashed a flurry of lightning bolts that struck the swordsman down, ending the match.
The audience erupted in applause as Kael emerged victorious, his face gleaming with sweat and his chest heaving with exhaustion. Ren stood up, sheathed his sword, and extended his hand towards Kael in respect.
"Well fought, Kael," he said, a smile spreading across his face. "You truly are a worthy opponent."
They were met with explosive applause from the crowd. Elise stepped up to congratulate Ren for making it to the next round. She also pointed out their show of sportsmanship.
A short break ensued to fix the arena for the next combatants, however, it didn't last long. Once it was done, Elise resumed the match with the next combatants appearing in the arena.
The crowd cheered as the two female contestants stepped onto the arena, their auras clashing against each other. The first contestant, an elegant woman with long blue hair, wore a flowing blue robe that was adorned with shimmering diamonds. She emanated a powerful aura of ice and water that chilled the air around her. Her name was Erina, and she was a master of the Water and Ice Laws.
Her opponent was a fiery young woman named Erica. She had long crimson hair and wore a red robe that seemed to flicker with flames. Her aura burned fiercely, radiating intense heat and light. Erica was a master of the Fire Laws, known for her incredible control over flames and infernos.
Both women possess the strength of a Star King in their cultivation.
The match began with a burst of energy as both women unleashed a barrage of spells. Erina conjured streams of ice and water that snaked through the air towards Erica, while Erica countered with blasts of fire and explosions. The two women clashed in a flurry of magical energy, their spells weaving around each other like a dance.
Erica's attacks were fierce, but Erina was quick on her feet, dodging and weaving around the flames with grace and skill. She countered with waves of icy blasts that threatened to freeze Erica in her tracks. The two women circled each other, their spells growing more and more powerful with each passing moment.
In the end, it was Erina who emerged victorious. She conjured a massive wave of icy water that crashed down onto Erica, freezing her in a block of ice. The crowd roared with excitement as Erina was declared the winner of the match. Erica was quickly thawed out and helped off the arena floor, congratulating Erina on her victory.
Elise stepped forward to congratulate the two contestants and announce Erina as the winner of the match. The audience cheered as Erina bowed gracefully, accepting her victory with poise and elegance.
The program entered a short break once more, this one lasted longer since the previous combatants did some serious damage to the arena. Thankfully, nobody complained about it.
Elise stepped onto the center of the stage as the crowd cheered. "Ladies and gentlemen, we have just witnessed two exciting matches for the High-Evolutionary League finals. Now, it's time for our third match!" she announced with enthusiasm.
The spotlight fell on the entrance as the man and woman contestants made their way towards the center of the arena. The man was a tall figure with short, spiky hair, and a confident smile. He was dressed in a simple black robe that flowed behind him as he walked. The woman, on the other hand, was smaller in stature but radiated an intimidating presence. She had long, black hair that was tied into a tight bun, and wore red and black armor that accentuated her toned muscles.
"Introducing first, we have our male contestant, hailing from the esteemed Mystic Guild. He is a Star King Spell Caster, known for his mastery of Star Magic/Laws. Give it up for Leo!" Elise introduced, gesturing towards the man.
The crowd erupted into cheers and applause as Leo raised his hand in acknowledgment. He walked confidently towards his designated zone, eyes fixed on his opponent.
"And now, her opponent. A fierce warrior from the Mystic Guild as well. She is a Star King, specializing in Martial Arts. Give a round of applause for Cassandra!" Elise introduced the woman contestant, receiving another round of cheers from the audience.
Cassandra strode confidently towards her own designated zone, a serious expression on her face as she sized up her opponent. As the two contestants stood opposite each other, the air between them crackled with tension.
"Contestants, ready yourselves!" Elise called out. "The third match of the High-Evolutionary League Finals will now commence!"
Without any further ado, the match began. Leo immediately started weaving intricate Star Magic/Laws, creating a dazzling array of light that streamed toward Cassandra. But Cassandra was quick to react, moving with a fluid grace as she dodged and weaved around the magic attacks.
Cassandra soon closed the distance between them, unleashing a flurry of powerful strikes that Leo barely managed to dodge. He retaliated with his own magic, but Cassandra seemed to have an inherent resistance to it, withstanding his attacks with little damage.
Their battle continued for several minutes, with Leo trying to keep his distance and launch magic attacks from afar, while Cassandra relentlessly pressed forward with her attacks. Eventually, Cassandra managed to land a solid punch to Leo's abdomen, sending him flying back towards the edge of the arena.
Even Elise herself winced when she landed a blow on him, she even heard the faint sounds of bones breaking, but she didn't comment on it. The match was intense and everyone was watching closely.
Leo managed to regain his footing just in time, but Cassandra was already on him, raining down a barrage of kicks and punches that he struggled to keep up with. Despite his best efforts, Leo couldn't keep up with Cassandra's relentless assault, and soon he was on the ground, defeated.
The audience erupted into cheers as Cassandra raised her arms in triumph. Elise walked towards her, congratulating her on her victory.
"Congratulations, Cassandra! You are our winner for the third match of the High-Evolutionary League Finals!" Elise announced, her voice filled with excitement.
Cassandra gave the audience a brilliant and innocent-looking smile. She helped up Leo, who fainted just now and brought him back to the med bay to treat his injuries.
