98 Chapter 98

The four schools competition was held once a year in turn in the four schools.

This year’s competition was held in Vulture Mage Academy, which was located on the southernmost side of the continent. Outside the boundary of the South Empire, it was also a tropical area of the continent.

As soon as they entered the area of the South, the temperature outside had reached an astonishing forty degrees.

Although the car was spacious enough to accommodate 12 people, the airtight environment still made the temperature inside like a steamer.

Everyone had changed into summer clothes, but they were still dizzy because of the heat.

Kellen sat face to face with Andrew. Seeing this, he smiled defiantly at Andrew and then put his palms together.

An ice magic array suddenly appeared on the top of the car.

Almost at the same time, a gust of cold air spread, and the temperature of the whole car immediately dropped 20 degrees.

The grade-three student exclaimed, “No wonder you are the captain. The ice magic can be used so well and the temperature control is so exquisite.”

However, Kellen stood still as if he didn’t hear him.

He said stiffly, “I haven’t used magic yet.”

“What?”

Not only grade three, but also the three boys in grade two were stunned.

Following Kellen’s gaze, everyone looked at Andrew.

As soon as Andrew raised his hand, which was full of coldness, he put it down and said indifferently, “The next competition will depend on Kellen. Please keep your strength.”

“I can cool the car.”

Hearing this, Andrew and Kellen became hostile again.

‘I used the magic first, but his magic worked.’

Moreover, the temperature was instantly lowered, and it could be maintained at an accurate 20 degrees without any deviation.

‘This guy’s usage and precision of ice magic are better than mine?’

No, no!

He looked down and saw Andrew’s belt.

Kellen recognized it at a glance and smiled scornfully. “Strong attack belt?”

Andrew looked down and replied, “yes.”

“It’s good. It can not only use the magic compound magic chant but also reduce 30% of the magic power, making the magic easier to control.”

Kellen said as he sat up naturally and reached out his hand to Andrew’s waist. “Let me play.”

But as soon as he reached out his hand, Andrew slapped it away mercilessly.

“Lad, what are you doing?”

“Senior Kellen can’t even look at it.”

“Do you want to rebel?”

This action immediately irritated the other three grade-three students.

However, Andrew remained unmoved. He said in a cold voice, “If you stretch out your hand again, I’ll chop off your hand.”

“What are you talking about? You’re courting death!”

“Hey, don’t be so excited.”

Kellen stretched out his hands to stop the team members on both sides and then crossed his legs leisurely. “What does it matter? He should pay more attention to some equipment.”

“After all, without any equipment, there are intermediate mages without any special features.”

While saying this, Kellen took a look at Andrew’s shoes.

The moment the frost dragon boots entered his eyes, a hint of admiration flashed across his eyes.

Although the strong attack belt was very powerful and the center of the trial was worth twenty thousand points, it was still a piece of equipment that could be bought.

But Kellen had never heard of that pair of boots.

The silvery-white one was like a crystal, emitting a faint cold air. Moreover, it was made of glass, but it was as tough and soft as the cowhide.

There was no doubt that it was a rare treasure.

Kellen chuckled and said, “But there are always people who will die in the competition. If a junior student dies, as a senior, we should retrieve their equipment in case of being caught by others. What do you think?”

Hearing Kellen’s words, his teammates immediately understood what he meant and all laughed maliciously.

“Be careful.”

Behind her, Signa whispered in his ear, “I guess Kellen wants to get your equipment.”

Andrew shrugged his shoulders and said, “It doesn’t matter. Let him do it.”

Then Andrew closed his eyes and began to meditate while controlling the temperature in the car.

The car also had the function of a meditation room, so it was okay to directly meditate.

Signa couldn’t understand.

She had witnessed Andrew’s strength in the griffin crusade.

He was indeed very powerful, but no matter how powerful he was, he was only an intermediate mage, which was not on par with grade-three students like Kellen.

Grade three was the age of graduation.

They had learned all the essence of the school and thoroughly comprehended it, and it could be said that it was the peak of the school.

Kellen’s team was the best of the best.

After graduation, there was no doubt that Kellen would be recruited by the magic association.

Such overwhelming strength made ordinary people unable to provoke them. They could only silently endure their provocation.

Otherwise, if Kellen got angry, even the emperor of a small country would have to bow to him.

Andrew should know it and why he was so confident to offend the four of them fearless.

Although Signa didn’t understand, she could only pray silently that Andrew really had a trump card.

Soon, two hours passed.

On the horizon in the distance, the huge wall of the Vulture Mage Academy gradually appeared.

Andrew withdrew from the meditation.

After reaching the advanced mage, the speed of meditation became faster and faster.

After a meditation, even in such a noisy environment, he still increased 3 magic power.

Andrew’s magic power had reached 433.

After Andrew finished his meditation.

The carriage just stopped at the door of Vulture Mage Academy.

Everyone got off the carriage.

All of a sudden, the 50-degree heat almost made people dizzy.

However, the wall, which was as high as a hundred meters, made people smaller.

Among the four schools, Lion Eagle Mage Academy was the worst.

Although Nicholas was the only person who was the tutor mage among the four schools, the overall strength of the Lion Eagle Mage Academy was not comparable to that of the other three schools.

Moreover, in terms of funding, Lion Eagle Mage Academy was far from enough.

Among the four schools, Vulture Mage Academy was the richest one.

There was no other reason.

The four schools were operated by the mage association in person.

Mage Academy was a project that cost a lot of money, let alone the four big schools. The cost of running a school every year was astronomical.

The annual budget of the four major schools was arranged by the mage association.

The four schools competition was the test of the school’s educational achievements.

Vulture Mage Academy was the most competitive school among the four schools, and its budget was even five times more than that of Lion Eagle Mage Academy.

Both the teaching resources and funds were exceptionally powerful.

That was why Andrew’s father had the chance to send Andrew to Lion Eagle Mage Academy through a cash gift.

Lion Eagle Mage Academy was really short of money.

The cost of the construction of the fence alone had exceeded the one-year tuition cost of Lion Eagle Mage Academy.

After entering Vulture Mage Academy.

The luxurious decoration inside was enough to make Andrew flabbergasted.

Every inch of the floor in the school was made of copper floor tiles.

The wall was inlaid with some magic crystals from time to time, and the faint magic power emitted from them could make the air in the school more suitable for the student’s practice.

The president’s office was in the research building of the distant college.

Andrew even saw a high-grade magic crystal with a diameter of ten meters floating on the roof, emitting green and white light and weighing a hundred tons.

That thing was not something that could be bought with money.

This kind of high-level magic crystal cost 2000 points to exchange for one gram in Lion Eagle Mage Academy.

How much did this cost?

Seeing that everyone was stunned, Kellen, who came here for the second time, snorted and said haltingly, “A group of bumpkins who are inexperienced.”
