"Dear audience, today is the first game of the Tian Cup semi-finals."

As the competition was about to begin, the wizard in charge of hosting it also became excited.

"The first to appear is Chloe von Einzbern, who will represent the new magical girl faction!"

Following the host's introduction, Xiao Hei somersaulted onto the competition field, and soon, there was thunderous cheers and applause from all around. Xiao Hei obviously liked this very much, she was a crowd pleaser, and now she was happily running and jumping on the field, waving to the audience.

As the competition progressed, the magic girls brought by Fang Zheng were quite popular in the White Tower. After all, these magic girls were just teenagers, innocent, lively, simple and cute. As long as they were not the mages with extremely twisted personalities, they would still like them to some extent.

In fact, several magical girls now have their own supporters in the White Tower. Fang Zheng had nothing better to do, so he asked around. Among the five magical girls, except for Homura Akemi who did not leave an impression on many mages because she was eliminated in the beginning, the other girls all have their own fan clubs.

You have to know that most of the mages in the White Tower are relatively old. At least they are all adults, and Illya, Nanoha and Sakura are only eleven or twelve years old, so other mages either treat them as sisters, daughters, or granddaughters. It can be said that they are all group favorites.

Plus, the girls themselves are all very well-behaved, cute and polite, so along the way, whether it's Sakura, Fate and Illya who were eliminated, or Nanoha and Kuro who advanced, they are all very likable.

So cuteness is justice.

"And her opponent is from the Transformation Department...Katrina Doroi!"

Along with this voice, a tall figure walked onto the field. Seeing her appearance, whistles and cheers soon came from the audience seats around her.

“Wow.”

Looking at the opponent in front of him, Xiao Hei widened his eyes in surprise. It was because this opponent was completely different from the previous ones.

In the past, Xiao Hei’s opponents had been both men and women, but they were all orthodox wizards wearing wizard robes. However, the wizard in front of him was a little different.

Strictly speaking, she doesn't even look like a mage.

From her appearance, this Katrina was about 30 years old, and she was two meters tall, which was quite tall among mages. Not only that, she didn't wear a mage robe like other mages, but a bikini-like three-point outfit, and she had wrist guards on her wrists, a longbow and quiver on her back, and a scimitar hanging from her waist. Not only that, she also had a skull necklace made of what looked like unknown skulls hanging from her neck.

The whole person looks like he came out of a primitive jungle tribe in the Amazon.

"Now we're going to have some fun."

Looking at this scene, Fang Zheng's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a playful smile. Sakura, who was sitting next to him, looked at Katharina in surprise as she walked onto the competition field.

"Teacher, is she also a mage?"

"Yes, Katrina is a member of the swamp barbarian tribe. Although she looks very tall, she is actually the shortest one in their tribe. That is why she came to the White Tower to learn magic."

Having said that, Fang Zheng waved his hand.

"But the speed and strength of the barbarians are not much worse than Xiao Hei. It seems that this time... there will be some fighting."

Fang Zheng had heard about Katrina's situation to some extent. After all, there would always be some outliers in the White Tower, such as himself who entered the White Tower as a Paladin, and Katrina who entered the White Tower as a barbarian. However, compared to Fang Zheng, Katrina's experience was more legendary. After all, before her, there was no history of a barbarian successfully advancing to a mage.

On the one hand, the barbarians themselves have a low level of education, and as a mage, intelligence and a high level of education are inevitable. On the other hand, the barbarians' physique seems to be incompatible with magic, making it difficult for them to control magic well.

In fact, this was also the case with Katarina at the beginning, but she solved the problem in a very "barbarian" style - she killed a wind elf monster single-handedly and drank its blood.

You have to know that this behavior is simply suicide for ordinary people. After all, the blood of Warcraft has violent magic power. Ordinary people will be poisoned and die immediately after drinking it. However, Katrina actually survived by relying on her barbarian physique and possessed a half-blood physique similar to that of a warlock.

After that, she relied on her own efforts and physique to become a very outstanding transformation mage in the White Tower.

So unlike the ordinary "gentleman who talks rather than fights" mages, Katarina's fighting skills are not much worse than Xiao Hei's. Moreover, after drinking the blood of the wind spirit beast, she also has the ability to control the wind element. Coupled with her own ability as a mage... Well, Xiao Hei has hit a wall this time.

There will be something interesting to watch next.

"bite--!"

As the bell rang, the battle officially began.

“Swish!!”

Xiao Hei immediately projected "Rule Breaker", and then lowered her body like a galloping cheetah, rushing towards Katrina on the opposite side. This is what she must do every time she starts a match. No matter how the opponent responds, Xiao Hei is confident that as long as she has this short knife in her hand, all mages are noobs!

However, Katrina was obviously prepared for this. One of the gems on her bracelet flashed, and then the hard ground under Xiao Hei's feet suddenly turned into a muddy swamp.

Fossils turn to mud!

Xiao Hei was not surprised by this. In fact, many mages had already dealt with her in this way. After all, after realizing that Xiao Hei's short sword could penetrate all magic, they began to choose to use objective factors to attack her. Just like dealing with Touma's left hand, maybe his left hand did collapse, but I can still crush you to death by collapsing a building.

But Xiao Hei is not a vegetarian either!

She loves beef!

"drink!"

The moment she realized that something was wrong with the ground under her feet, Xiao Hei suddenly jumped up, and the next moment, her whole body seemed to turn into a phantom and disappeared into the air!

This is the Einzbern family's specialty, magic power transfer!

In just a blink of an eye, Xiao Hei's figure appeared behind Katarina again, and then the dagger in her hand moved forward again and stabbed Katarina's body.

However, at this moment, Katarina suddenly turned around and drew out the scimitar from her waist!

"clang!!!"

With a slight sound, the sharp scimitar blocked Xiao Hei's attack.

"oh?"

Seeing his attack blocked, Xiao Hei was also stunned, then he pushed forward with all his strength, and then used the reaction force to quickly jump back. At the same time, Katrina's scimitar just passed Xiao Hei's feet, and then she swung back again and slashed forward.

"Interesting, big sister!"

After initially determining the opponent's strength, Xiao Hei immediately became playful. This was the first time she had met a mage who could fight her face to face, so she naturally would not let go of this opportunity. Xiao Hei threw away the magic-breaking dagger in her hand, then quickly stretched out her hand, projected two scimitars, one black and one white, spun on the ground, and continued to rush towards the opponent.

Soon, the two of them started fighting.

“Ding, ding, ding, ding!!”

Xiao Hei was like a petite and flexible cheetah, constantly attacking Katrina. Katrina, however, was like an elephant, easily resisting Xiao Hei's attacks again and again. She had the protection of the wind element, so even though Katrina was taller, she was not inferior to Xiao Hei in terms of flexibility.

Not only that, because of her long arms and legs, Katrina actually has an advantage in terms of attack range.

For a moment, this looked less like a match between mages and more like a gladiator contest.

“This is really…”

Looking at the scene before his eyes, the Chief of the Shaping Department was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

“Isn’t this good?”

However, the Chief of the Prophecy Department obviously had a different opinion on this. He even puffed out his chest and raised his head, revealing his fourteen-pack abdominal muscles.

"I think we should have done this a long time ago. Those little bastards only know how to study and read all day long without any exercise. As a result, they become a bunch of useless people without magic. They are not the talents we want! The body, only the body is the foundation of magic. Without a strong body, how can you learn magic well?"

As he spoke, the Chief of the Prophecy Department clenched his fists. The muscles on his arms bulged high, stretching his entire sleeves tightly.

"That's not what I meant...but..."

Looking at his old friend, the Chief of the Shaping Department touched his bald head and then shrugged his shoulders.

"Well, it seems that we really need to make some changes."

Although there were "freaks" like Fang Zheng and Katrina in the White Tower in the past, they were still a minority. However, in this competition, the magical girls' fighting style was almost all physical skills + magic, and they were always successful. Naturally, this scene was also seen by many chiefs.

Perhaps, Bai Ta's thinking does need to change.

“Drink it!!”

Just as the chiefs were thinking about the future of the White Tower and the Magic Kingdom, the battle on the field entered a white-hot stage.

With a roar, Katrina swung her knife and forced Xiao Hei back completely. Then she slammed the scimitar in her hand heavily on the ground, creating a deep crack on the solid playing field.

However...it's now!

Seeing Katarina's flaw, Xiao Hei raised his hands without hesitation and swung them forward. Then four black and white scimitars flew out from Xiao Hei's hands and surrounded Katarina from all directions.

At the same time, Xiao Hei also appeared behind Katarina, holding the scimitar tightly with both hands, and swung it down with force!

Crane Wing Triple Hits!

“Swish, swish, swish!”

The crisscrossing sword lights hit Katrina's body, but did not knock her away as Xiao Hei had expected. On the contrary, when she hit Katrina, Xiao Hei only felt that the blade in his hand was like cutting on steel!

"boom!!"

A violent gust of air suddenly erupted, and the next moment, Katrina's magical radiance shone brightly, directly knocking Xiao Hei away. The little girl somersaulted several times in the air, and only then did she manage to keep her balance and land on the ground. But at this moment, Katrina was no longer in front of her.

Where are the people?

Xiao Hei was stunned when she saw the empty stadium, and at this moment, she keenly caught the sound of wind by her ears.

“Whoosh!”

In a flash, Xiao Hei raised her scimitar without hesitation and blocked the arrows that were shot down from the sky. It was not until then that she realized that the opponent had actually flown to a height of dozens of meters, bending his bow and aiming at her.

I see.

Seeing this, Xiao Hei also suddenly realized. Obviously, the opponent was using the same strategy as Nanoha used against other mages. The quarterfinals was a one-on-one battle, so Katarina could just fly into the air. At that time, whether it was shooting arrows or magic, she would take the initiative.

I see, you think I'm a Saber.

Looking at Katharina in the sky, the corners of Kuro's mouth curled up slightly. After all, in the previous games, Kuro didn't show the ability to fly high like Illya and Nanoha, and she always focused on close combat, so Katharina obviously treated Kuro as a close combat magical girl.

However……

"I'm the bone of my sword..."

Accompanied by the low chanting, Xiao Hei stretched out her right hand, and soon, a pitch-black longbow and a spiral arrow appeared in her hand.

Do you think I am Saber?

Actually, I am ARCHER!
