When Sothai heard the other party’s words, his brows furrowed even more tightly. Apart from the fact that the other party was here to challenge the school, there was another more important factor, and that was the other party’s surname.

Treis? It can’t be such a coincidence, right?

Yesterday, the Treis family had just sent someone to their house to steal things, and today, someone with the surname Treis immediately came to challenge the school? This definitely couldn’t be a coincidence. The other party must be from the Treis family clan! Damn it, he was just about to go and find them, but he had not expected them to deliver themselves to his door first.

Sothai did not have much of an impression of his family in the Holy Light City. After all, that had happened a hundred years ago. Even if his family had encountered a very tragic incident in the Holy Light City, he had not been born at that time, so he naturally would not know. But last night, the head of the family, Norton, had already told them all about that period of history and all the encounters of the family clan, especially about the evil the Treis family had done to their family clan. Coupled with the fact that the thief had been instructed by the Treis family, this made everyone even more furious.

Especially Sothai. It was precisely because he was very indignant that he had taken the initiative to accept the mission of finding the people from the Treis family clan, in order to take ruthless revenge. Now, he had not even found the other party, but the other party had already brazenly come to their family’s martial arts school to cause trouble. This was obviously not taking their family seriously, and this made Sothai even more furious. However, he was already middle-aged now, and he would not write all his emotions on his face like a young person when he encountered something. Even though he was very angry now and a volcano had erupted in his heart, he remained very calm on the surface.

“It’s fine to come here to challenge the martial arts school, but you have to clarify your identity first. Not just anyone can challenge the martial arts school of the Nicholas family clan,” Sothai said coldly.

Ramu, who was standing opposite him, sneered and said, “I know you’re trying to sound out my identity, but there’s no need. I can tell you clearly that I’m from the Holy Light City, the Treis family clan.”

He had actually revealed his background directly. This was no longer just not taking his family clan seriously; this was completely disregarding them! The anger in Sothai’s heart burned even more, but the more furious he was, the calmer he became.

Ramu continued to mock, “When I came, our Old Ancestor said that I should treat your family well. After all, a hundred years ago, you guys left in such a hurry that our family clan could not even extend our hospitality. Haha.” After he had finished speaking, he laughed arrogantly.

Sothai clenched his fists tightly behind his back. He was already beyond furious. How could he not know the meaning behind the other party’s words on hospitality? Back then, their family clan had been ambushed by several family clans, and the Treis family clan was one of them.

“How is it? Can we fight now?” Ramu Treis looked at Sothai arrogantly and said.

“Sure.” Sothai said expressionlessly, “Since you want to fight so much, I’ll fight you!”

Ramu then walked to the field. The middle-aged man beside him said to him, “Ramu, be careful. The Nicholas family clan is, after all, a family clan that had produced a Great Archmage of peak realm. Don’t let down your guard.”

Ramu said, “Don’t worry, Second Uncle. I know.”

Then, he made an inviting gesture to Sothai and said, “Kwoon Master of the Nicholas family clan, please!”

Sothai walked to the field expressionlessly and stood still.

Then, Ramu activated his magical power directly, and a total of eight magic runes appeared around his body. Then, a few magic runes combined to form a formation. Instantly, a gust of wind appeared around his body, and his entire body became much lighter. He had used a wind-based magical power, and it was even a better one of enhanced wind-based magical power. After he had enhanced this magical power, his speed would at least double. He would come and go like the wind, and kill people in just the blink of an eye. Ramu was also a Magic Warrior.

“Damn, he’s actually a level-8 Mage. He’s amazing!”

After seeing this person’s magic runes, everyone knew that he was already a level-8 Mage. They were instantly shocked. Those who had come to the martial arts school to study were basically all able to learn some ordinary martial arts, and that was already good enough. The probability of learning magical power was very small. Only those who were very talented and very loyal to the Nicholas family clan would be bestowed with meditation techniques by the Nicholas family. As long as anyone was a Mage, he would be a big shot to them. The young man in front of them seemed to be only in his early twenties, but he was already a level-8 Mage. Although he could not be called a genius, he was very close.

When Ramu heard the screams of the students, he became even more pleased.

He thought to himself.

This is indeed a poor and remote place. They are already making such a fuss over a mere level-8 Mage. What a bunch of bumpkins.

However, this thought only lasted for a moment. Then, he placed his attention on his opponent, Sothai. He saw that Sothai had also activated his magical power to condense a magic formation, using only five magic runes.

He immediately sneered in his heart.

You are indeed just a level-5 Mage. Watch how I destroy you.

Swoosh!

Ramu moved. He was very fast, so fast that he even left an afterimage where he was. His fist was already in front of Sothai. Originally, he was very confident in his punch. In his opinion, it would only take one punch to finish off a level-5 Mage.

However, when he got closer to the other party, he felt a gust of cold air. This cold air was pervasive. Just by getting closer to the other party, he could already sense that the blood in his fist was about to freeze. And at this moment, just as the fist was about to hit the other party’s face, the other party actually threw a punch over.

Boom!

Ice flew in all directions. The other party was actually a Magic Warrior too. A layer of ice crystals covered Sothai’s fist, and it smashed hard against Ramu’s fist. Fragments flew in the air, and Ramu felt the excruciating pain in his fist, as if his bones had been broken.

Then, Sothai’s fist immediately struck again. Ramu did not dare to continue to fight head-on with the other party. He quickly backed away. With the super fast speed bestowed upon him by the wind-based magical power, he quickly pulled away from the other party. However, the contempt in Ramu’s eyes had long disappeared. He looked at the other party with a serious expression, his eyes full of doubts.

Isn’t the other party only a level-5 Mage? Why is he so powerful? He can even force me to back away by fighting me head-on?
