The clans that accepted the Gordons Patriarch’s call to defend the city were the Lanzt Clan, the Darkbliss Clan, the Coral Clan, and the Aegisborn Clan.Every one of these clans had at least a basic relationship with the Gordons Clan, except for the Aegisborn Clan.As for the Lanzt Clan’s participation, the Gordons Patriarch understood Bailey Lanzt’s decision very well, the two clans were natural allies, after all, the Gordons Clan had assisted the Lanzt Clan through countless Blood Moon wars, not to mention the fact that Bailey Lanzt, who is the ancestral Patriarch of the Lanzt Clan, had only managed to recover from a zombie infestation because of a pill sold in the Gordons Clan auction, which also pushed him to the peak of the Tier 7 realm. In many ways, it could be said that he owed the Gordons clan his life.On top of that, the Lanzt Clan had acquired a top-rank Tier 6 spirit equipment set from the Gordons Clan Auction, which Bailey’s son, the Patriarch of the clan has now bounde

“War God!!!”“Silent Night!!!”The cheers for the two academies rose to a deafening level, as fans from the other kingdoms naturally sided with the School of Silent Night.This time, it wasn’t just because the opponent of the Silent night is an academy from the Northern Kingdom, but it was because almost everyone believed the School of Silent Night were the clear favorites.In comparison, despite the War God Mage Academy repeatedly surprising the crowd by winning in the previous rounds, few could only imagine a scenario where they would defeat the School of Silent Night.Most people had already accepted that the War God team would lose the battle, only a handful thought otherwise about it.The first were members of the Battle Mage Academy, all of whom were present to watch and were planning on showing their support for the War God Mage Academy.The second were representatives of the Bloodline Academy, though only Dragov Dragonmir and Damien Sorin were in attendance, as the rest of the

The Patriarch clearly knew his grandson carried many secrets, and as long as Alec wasn’t interested in revealing them, he was perfectly content not to pry.“I want you to use one of those now. I’m hoping my prediction is right and it does exactly what I’m expecting,” Alec said, pointing toward the pill bottle that housed the Tier 7 mental pill.The Patriarch immediately understood, without hesitation, he uncorked the bottle, took one pill, and swallowed it. Right after that, he glanced at Alec as if expecting further instructions—but Alec simply watched him quietly, as though waiting for something to happen.At first, nothing did.That alone surprised him, he had taken the Tier 7 cultivation pills Alec gave him in the past, though far fewer than what lay before him now, and he had treasured each one, since the clan could rarely afford such resources. Still, whenever he consumed one, he usually felt the effects almost immediately.This time, however, there was nothing, for a moment,

Immediately the judge called for the start of the battle, the mages of the School of Silent Night wasted no time, as they surged forward, bearing down on the War God Mage Academy team like a dark tide.Shin Jae-Hyun and Kenta were the first to move, Kenta gripped his tonfa, its usual blunt striking ends were replaced with razor-sharp blades that gave the weapon a vicious, gleaming edge. Beside him, Shin dashed forward, with a kunai clenched in his right hand and a coiled wired hook wrapped around his left forearm.“That one’s mine,” Pale declared, charging forward away from the whole team and straight for Kenta.Behind him, Lucas silently raised a hand and drew his greatsword, though he said nothing; however, his stance and the place he was facing made it clear that he had chosen Shin as his target.The moment the two sides were about to collide, the crowd erupted into wild cheers, anticipation electric in the air.The School of Silent Night liked to fight as a unit, and they rarely

“We’re finally back to square one with the War God Mage Academy te—” Kenta was still speaking when he turned toward the battle ring all he met with was the sudden appearance of Lucas Fist heading for his face.Immediately, in a fast fashion he formed a hand seal to cast a spell, while pushing off the ground and moving backwards to gain ground.[> Mid Shinobi Skill – Fading Afterimage. <]The moment he activated this spell, multiple versions of him appeared, all flickering like unstable reflections which made it hard to figure out which was his main body as there was nothing that stood out, since all the bodies he created were all glowing in weird glows. At once, all these versions of Kenta all swung their wired hooks toward Lucas.“Hmmm,” Lucas muttered in surprise as he realized the hooks had actually coiled around his outstretched right fist, from Agnes’ report, this mage supposedly uses mirage magic, meaning most of his attacks were usually more illusory than real. That was why L
