Teacher Naxi was still in the middle of the arena, explaining the methods of Warcraft battles to the students, and using himself as an example to illustrate the precautions for battle.
Warcraft battles aren't just about monsters fighting; the owners also join in. Therefore, mages without pets aren't even eligible to participate. Of course, there are also pure pet battles, but these require prior arrangement.
After some explanation, the students learned that this big guy could not only release water jets to attack opponents, but also gather earth magic to provide shields for teammates and his master, acting as a front-line tank.
"It's actually a low-level magical beast with both water and earth elements, level 48, that's amazing!"
"Teacher Naxi, please show us its skills!"
Amidst a barrage of compliments, Naxi then commanded his giant tortoise to attack the target in front of him. A jet of water as thick as an arm pierced through the target more than ten meters away.
"Wow, the teacher's pet is so powerful!"
He then demonstrated the shield skill, which, combined with his advanced mage strength, made it a perfect blend of offense and defense.
"In battle, pets are a powerful supplement to mages. Only by fully understanding your pets can you unleash their full combat potential! I hope you all remember these words!"
"Alright, now start your training and get familiar with your pet's attack methods. Finally, I will select a few outstanding students to come up on stage for a competition and show everyone."
After saying that, Teacher Naxi jumped onto the giant tortoise and watched as the students dispersed to train their pets.
"York, that's rock. Your gopher can't burrow in there yet. Try it in the sand over there." Nash couldn't help but remind him, watching the guy still directing the gopher to keep banging its head against the ground.
"Lassie, what are you doing? Your firebird is still small and can't release many flames. Stop it right now!" Nasi shook his head helplessly as he looked at the little firebird with smoke coming out of its mouth.
Training new students is a hassle; they don't know anything and are incredibly stubborn.
The medical staff on standby also got busy.
"Oh, that Yasuo looks pretty good. He can already control the Wind Serpent to accelerate his movement smoothly. He's a promising talent."
Looking around again, Nash noticed that Ellie and Daisy were whispering to each other, which gave him another headache.
"You two, why aren't you training properly!"
"Teacher, we're already training! Look!"
A cute white baby and a black slime were throwing snowballs at each other, having a great time.
“This,” Nasi said, somewhat surprised. He could see that the snow woman could easily condense a snowball, throw it to the slime, and then smash the snowball it threw back with a new one. This magical control ability was completely unlike that of a newly contracted magical creature.
As for the slime, he didn't know how to train it. He was not supposed to make it spit slime at him; the thought alone was disgusting.
"You guys, train hard!" Naxi said before leaving, his back view seemingly showing some disdain.
"What's wrong with the teacher?" Daisy asked curiously.
"I don't know, but your Little Snow is really amazing, it releases snowballs so fast!"
"Yes, yes, this is all thanks to your slime. I never thought it could teach Snowball magic," Daisy said happily. She realized that her pet really liked the slime, even though it had looked terrified when it saw her brother's snowman before.
"Hehe, that guy is just after your Xiaoxue's beauty, don't be fooled by him!" Ellie chuckled, unable to help but complain in her heart.
"Ah Qiu! Who's talking bad about me?" Luo Fan thought to himself. He found that his jumping ability had increased a lot after the breakthrough, and his magic core had become more solid. As for other things, he hadn't found anything yet.
After an unknown amount of time, Ellie hugged her pet, trying to sense the changes in it, only to find that the creature had begun to dislike her.
"Aili, get out of the way, don't interfere with my instruction of Xiaoxue'er!"
Enraged, she kept rubbing the wretched creature to vent her frustration.
"Class, assemble now!" The teacher's voice rang out, and only then did Ellie stop what she was doing, but she didn't let Luo Fan slip back.
"I wonder which students would like to come forward and try a simple contest."
"I, I do!" Yasuo quickly raised his hand, glancing defiantly at Airi not far away.
"Teacher, I want to have a match with Airi!"
As soon as he said that, many people began to gloat and mutter under their breath.
"Yasuo, what do you mean! Teacher, I want to challenge him!" Daisy immediately objected and raised her hand.
"Aili, are you afraid?" Yasuo completely ignored Daisy. He had been watching this area closely and already knew how powerful the Snow Woman was. As for that bouncing slime, defeating it would be a piece of cake.
"Let's compete, just don't regret it!" Ai Li agreed upon hearing Luo Fan's voice.
"Ellie, do you really want to compete with him? Your slime isn't very strong!" Daisy quickly grabbed Ellie's clothes, not wanting her to go over there.
"It's alright, don't worry!"
"Since both sides have agreed, then come over here. Be careful not to intentionally hurt each other. If things get out of hand, I will take action immediately!"
After giving a brief explanation, Teacher Naxi led the giant tortoise to the side.
This time, he only needed to watch out for the wind spirit serpent. As for the slime, it probably wouldn't be of much use. He remembered that the slime's weakness was its magic core, but since it was so dark, it would be difficult to find.
I hope everything is alright!
"Luo Fan, are you really confident?"
"Of course, these kids are easy prey, one punch at a time! Listen to my commands. You know some kind of binding skills, right? Play with that brat and see if he dares to bully you again!"
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
They made some quick plans and waited for the competition to begin.
"Lassie, who do you think will win?"
"It's definitely Yasuo! Ellie will probably be beaten to tears, since her dark magic is more control-oriented, while Yasuo's is more damage-oriented."
"I can't wait!"
"Battle begins!"
On the field, as the duel began, Yasuo commanded his Wind Serpent to advance rapidly, charging towards the slime in front of Ellie. At the same time, he was also waving his staff, gathering wind elemental energy.
"Aili, here I come! Little snake, I'm coming!" With a shout, Luo Fan jumped towards the other side. Then, he charged headfirst into the wind spirit snake that was attacking him.
"Now!"
The Wind Serpent's speed was abruptly reduced due to the impact. Luo Fan was also deformed by the impact, thrown to the side, and then jumped towards Yasuo's position.
"Shadow Binding!" The Wind Serpent, which was about to chase the slime, was entangled by several shadows and struggled incessantly.
"Wind Blade!" Yasuo unleashed his magic, sending it flying directly towards the approaching slime.
"Hmph, since you're courting death, don't blame me for being impolite!"
A shallow wind blade slashed directly at the slime in mid-air, and there was no way to avoid it.
Nash knows that the slime's weakness is its magic core, and he's a bit unsure whether he should step in to protect it, but he's also made sure the giant turtle is prepared.
Before the wind blade even got close, the guy in the air was split in two, dodging the attack and rushing towards Yasuo.
The wind blades that missed their target flew a distance before slowly dissipating.
At that moment, two slimes jumped towards Yasuo from the left and right. In the gaps between his wildly waving his staff, they spat out a few mouthfuls of phlegm, splashing all over Yasuo.
Yasuo immediately felt terrible; that slime was absolutely disgusting!
Wiping the sticky substance off his face, Yasuo tried to recall his pet to defend himself, only to find himself feeling a chill all over.
"Oh no, my clothes!"
In the entire arena, only Yasuo huddled together like a quail, howling loudly, while the two black lumps, after coalescing into one, turned and jumped towards Ellie.
No credit or fame to be gained!
"Hmph, you little brat, trying to mess with me! I'll show you why flowers are so white!"
"Burp~, I finally expelled the water element that I couldn't absorb before, that feels so good!"
"This, Airi wins!" Seeing that Yasuo had lost his will to fight, Teacher Nasi had no choice but to announce the end of the match.
Whispers arose again, and many people, recovering from their initial shock, burst into laughter once more. The female students, concerned with their image, mostly turned their backs, with only a few still stealing glances in their direction, feeling utterly ashamed.
Wow, those two mounds are so white!
However, when they looked at the dark-colored slime, they all became secretly more vigilant, thankfully it wasn't them who went up on stage.
