Chapter 107 004: The Chief of the Witch Castle
In the first round of the round-robin elimination tournament, each person will play three games a day. In the first round, you only need to win one game to advance to the next round. In addition, each game won will be rewarded with 100 magic stones.
Next, Luo Xi went through two more games. His opponents were all from an unknown small wizard organization. The strength of their opponents was just that of low-level apprentices. He defeated them easily. The opening game of the first day ended with a perfect victory.
After the game, the dormitory.
Nicole sat on the bed, her eyes red and two clear tear marks on her white cheeks.
In stark contrast to Luo Xi's easy victory, Nicole's opening match was very bad. She encountered apprentices from the eight major departments twice, one from the Boneyard and the other from the Ice Castle, and both ended in failure.
Although the last time they encountered an unknown wizard organization, they were surprisingly good at fighting and their strength had reached an average level, which was one level higher than Nicole, who was still in the low-level apprentice stage. Unfortunately, they were defeated in the end and became one of the few apprentices who were eliminated directly in the first round.
Luo Xi comforted him, "Okay, it's no big deal. Fighting is not what you are good at, right?"
Nicole said sadly: "I know that too, but"
She pulled her hair and said frustratedly, "It's so embarrassing. I was eliminated on the first day."
Luo Xi knew that it was useless to say anything at this time. The best way to comfort her was to stay by her side and be a loyal listener, allowing her to adjust herself.
Nicole sighed, "I really don't understand what the problem is. It's okay that I can't catch up with geniuses like you, but I was clearly at the same level as Lily and the others back then, but they have all been promoted to intermediate apprentices, and I'm still..."
She said incomprehensibly: "I came to the Elemental Castle!"
Maybe that's where the problem lies.
Nicole couldn't see clearly because she was involved in the matter, but as a bystander, Luo Xike understood it very well.
Nicole, who came in through the back door in the Elemental Castle where geniuses gathered, was far behind others from the beginning. The psychological pressure was of course quite great, and the psychological factors of a wizard's training would have a great impact.
Although the Elemental Castle has more resources and better teachers, most of these are concentrated on the top-ranked apprentices. For example, after Luo Xi came to the castle, she had received the Meditation Water many times, but Nicole had never received it once.
The resources enjoyed by ordinary apprentices like Nicole are actually not much different from those in the other eight departments. On the contrary, because of their superior talents, they may get more attention from the instructors. This is also the reason why Lily and others are able to advance faster than Nicole.
All I can say is that this was the choice she made at the time. If she had not chosen to cheat, she might have been promoted to an intermediate apprentice by now, instead of still staying at the three runes stage.
The next day, the competition continued.
Today is still the knockout stage, but this time you need to win two games to advance to the next round, and the prize money for victory has also been increased from 100 magic stones to 200 magic stones.
The three opponents that Luo Xi met today were also not very strong. All three were low-level apprentices from an unknown wizard organization. Luo Xi won the victory with almost no effort and put the six hundred magic stones into his pocket again with a complete victory.
In the next few days, there were no strong opponents. Luo Xi easily won all the games and reached the final round of the round-robin elimination without any difficulty.
And here, Luo Xi finally met an interesting opponent——
The chief and senior apprentice of the Witch Castle, Charlotte Yeager, is a pure-blood from the Yeager family, a wizard family. She passed the initial examination with a high score of 90 four years ago. She chose to study in the Witch Castle only because her family's power is concentrated in the Witch Castle.
For four years, she has maintained the top level of the Witch Castle and advanced all the way to senior apprentice. She is definitely a truly talented witch.
Luo Xi has watched her previous two matches, and there are indeed many remarkable aspects in both. Whether chanting or casting spells, she is much more fluent than ordinary apprentices, and it is obvious that she is not on the same level as other apprentices.
Such an opponent is very suitable. He can reveal some of his "trump cards" during the battle with her so that he can lose to other apprentices more naturally in the final stage.
Otherwise, if he continues to fight like this, he will not be able to lose even if he wants to. It will be bad if he makes it to the finals. Standing on the ring, Luo Xi looked at his opponent.
A big dome-shaped hat with a pointed horn, a purple apprentice cloak printed with the dragon flame violet emblem of the witch castle, a white lace skirt paired with black over-the-knee stockings, the mystery yet perfectly reveals the unique charm of women.
As far as the cloaks of each organization go, Luo Xi truly thinks that the ones from the Witch Castle are the best looking.
At the same time, Charlotte on the opposite side was also looking at her. After looking her up and down, a smile appeared on her delicate face.
She sneered and said, "What a coincidence, little brother."
The witch in front of him was none other than the girl who greeted Rosie when she entered the castle that day.
Luo Xi nodded: "Indeed."
Charlotte gently waved her wand to draw lines of elements in the air, saying, "When I saw your superb elemental control that day, I knew you would be a match for me, but I never thought we would meet in the ring so soon."
Luo Xi shrugged and was about to respond, but unexpectedly the girl's tone suddenly changed and became sharp.
She said confidently and with a hint of arrogance, "This is really unfortunate for you. After all, with your level, you could have gone a long way before you failed."
"Well"
Luo Xi's half-prepared lines were abruptly blocked out of her mouth. I don't know how capable this girl is, but she is quite good at being sarcastic.
He nodded and said casually, "Please give me your advice."
At the same time, in the audience.
The Chief of the Witch Castle faced off against the senior apprentice of the Elemental Castle. Both of them were favorites to win the championship, so this match was destined to be the focus of everyone's attention. Thousands of eyes were focused on the two of them at once.
Anthony said sarcastically, "I can't tell how good he is, but he has a sharp tongue. Is he the apprentice of the Witch Castle?"
The witch Vina retorted without giving in: "A mudblood is a mudblood. He occasionally gets lucky and is pushed to a position that is not inferior to him. He really thinks he is so great. He has no idea what inheritance and foundation are."
The other sages around were also very helpless. These two people quarreled whenever they met.
Why bother? After all, we have shared life together. Even if it didn't end well, it would be too embarrassing to end up like this.
"clang!"
A loud bell rang out, and under the watchful eyes of the crowd, as the two sages confronted each other, the competition on the ring began!
