The Genius Mage

Chapter 331: The Strongest

Gendry was a recognized expert in the level two knights. Not many people dared to challenge him. However, those people had just been defeated, and Audrey had only joined the Knights Legion for half a month, yet she dared to challenge Gendry.

“Have some courage. You start first,” Gendry said with a cold snort.

Audrey did not stand at on ceremony. Her blue eyes suddenly darkened, and the longsword in her hand was wrapped in combat aura. With a flash, she arrived next to Gendry before anyone could see her clearly. She thrust her longsword at him.

Naturally, Gendry could not be compared to the people below the stage. He quickly reacted, cleverly dodging it, and began to counterattack.

A strong surge of combat aura attacked. Audrey calmly stood where she was and directly confronted it. Fortunately, the two of them were evenly matched. After a moment of stalemate, the two forces disappeared.

At this moment, Gendry also sensed Audrey’s strength. He readjusted his state and treated her more seriously.

“Gale technique!”

A swift and strong gale swept over, as though it could wrap people up and blow them away. Everyone below the stage was sweating for Audrey.

“Great Goddess of ice and snow, please bestow me with divine power.” As the chant sounded, a powerful force surged in Audrey’s body. As the wind blew, her light blue dress fluttered in the wind, making her look holy and mysterious.

When her combat aura attacked, Audrey only stretched out her hand to build an energy wall in front of her to block Gendry’s attack.

“Frost arrow!” Seizing the opportunity, Audrey gripped the frost-covered longsword tightly and charged at Gendry.

Just as she was about to get close, the frost on the longsword suddenly turned into countless ice blades and stabbed into Gendry’s body. The bone-piercing coldness entered his body. Even Gendry could not endure it.

He looked at Audrey in astonishment. How did this girl manage to injure him in just a few moves?

“You were hit by my arrow. You lost. But don’t worry. It’s nothing serious,” Audrey said calmly.

Although he could still continue the battle, Gendry had already sensed Audrey’s strength. There was no need to continue this battle.

He lowered his head, and a hint of desolation flashed across his eyes. He said in a low voice, “I admit that I’ve lost. You’re indeed very strong. What’s your name?”

“Audrey!” She said without hesitation.

Gendry nodded meaningfully and walked down the stage. He had memorized this name.

At this moment, Audrey had become the new arena lord. Most people did not even dare to challenge Gendry. Naturally, they did not dare to challenge Audrey, who had just defeated Gendry.

However, there were also a few people who did not know their limits and came forward to give their heads away. Audrey dealt with them cleanly and chased them off the stage.

Audrey stood on the stage in blue, beautiful and generous.

After waiting for a long time, no one came up to challenge her, and the competition ended. Although there was not a ceremony to award the first place, in everyone’s hearts, Audrey was already the strongest.

The competition was relatively casual. After the competition ended, the rankings for the day had been released. Fortunately, everyone in the Dragon Slaying Squad had a good ranking, so everyone was in a slightly better mood.

“Tomorrow, we can challenge the members of the level one Knights. Audrey, do you want to go?” Adrian asked. Through today’s competition, he was even clearer about Audrey’s strength.

Perhaps, she should not stay in the level two Knights at all, but go to level one.

Hearing this, Audrey answered without hesitation, “Of course, this is an opportunity. You should seize it well.”

They fell into silence as if they were considering whether they should challenge the members of the level one Knights. After all, those who could stay in the level one Knights were not to be underestimated.

After a long while, Adrian broke the silence. “I want to try. There are mountains beyond mountains, and there are people beyond people. There’s nothing wrong with experiencing it.”

“Me too.” Hobart immediately echoed.

In the end, Klein and Cole also decided to participate together. Only Kate, who knew that the gap between his strength and the members of the level one Knights was too big, simply gave up.

“I’ll cheer for you guys tomorrow. Give it your best,” Kate said with a smile.

The few of them chatted for a long time and understood each other’s battle strategies for the next day. Then, they went back.

In order to give it a better performance tomorrow, Audrey deliberately went to the otherworldly realm to soak in a hot spring to let herself relax.

“You’ve improved a lot recently,” Meatball said lazily, sizing Audrey up with complicated eyes.

Audrey knew that although Meatball stayed in the otherworldly realm all day long, she still had some understanding of what had happened to her outside, so she did not think too much about it.

She snorted and looked at Meatball with interest. “So, what are you trying to say? It’s impossible for me to bring you meat. I’m not free for the next two days.”

Hearing that, a hint of disappointment flashed in Meatball’s eyes, but he quickly glared at Audrey helplessly. “That’s not true. What I’m trying to say is that since you’ve improved, why don’t I teach you another set of martial arts?”

It’s related to cultivation? Audrey immediately perked up and looked at Meatball seriously.

As a spirit beast that had guarded the otherworldly realm for tens of thousands of years, Meatball was much more powerful than she had imagined. Audrey took all the information that Meatball gave her seriously, as well as the martial arts that were used for cultivation.

“What does it do?” Audrey asked.

“You’ll know once you practice it.” Meatball chuckled and began to demonstrate.

Along with its cute actions, an invisible mysterious force was born. Even though Audrey was standing to the side, she could feel the power of that force.

Meatball only demonstrated its actions once and did not use its power.
