The Power of a Tier-Five Magister
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The previously inconspicuous Elder Chuan caught everyone's attention immediately.
He raised the walking stick in his hand and stabbed it into the ground.
"God's Judgement—Thunder God's Spear!"
Elder Chuan was like a lion king who ruled over thousands of beasts as he channeled his thunder mana into his walking stick.
Made from a unique type of metal, it looked like a mere walking tool for Old Chuan, but it turned out to be his weapon.
For a while, it was unknown just how much power the dragon-headed walking stick had accumulated.
It was dazzling blue!
Boom!
As though the walking stick represented God's authority, it struck the ground.
A bolt of blue lightning that was thicker than a water bucket struck down from the sky.
Elder Chuan's figure became drowned out by the blue lightning storm as well.
Then, the ground cracked.
Blazing blue lightning burst out from the ground and turned into twisted electric arcs that swept in all directions.
Anything in its path made crackling sounds and became electrocuted.
The low-level vicious beasts that rushed over from the end of the street were instantly electrocuted to death by the lightning bolts.
Cass, Ankti, and the other examiners yelled, "What are all of you waiting for? Get in the vehicle! Go!"
In a panic, everyone rushed to the platform.
"Vajra Bell Shield!!"
Ankti raised his head and shouted. He spread his arms wide, and an abundance of magic power surged out from his body, forming a gigantic golden bell above his head.
With a loud 'dong', the golden bell slammed heavily onto the ground, blocking the front of the train station to prevent Elder Chuan's lightning from harming the apprentice magisters and stationed soldiers.
Blazing blue and dazzling lightning crashed into the pure and unadorned golden vajra bell, making a crackling sound with astonishing power.
Similarly, no one should underestimate Ankti's vajra bell shield.
Vajra Bell Shield—Lv3 magic technique!
Austin grabbed Catherine's hand and squeezed through the crowd toward the Fire Dragon transport.
He took a glance behind and was shocked.
That was the power of a tier-five magister!
That was an Lv1 magic technique—Thunder God's Spear!
Austin had underestimated magisters.
Now he realized that magisters were equally as powerful.
They all lead to the same destination. Magisters and my cell evolution have their advantages and disadvantages. Still, they might be equally powerful at their peak!
The evolution of my cells is faster than the cultivation process of magisters, and it is more comprehensive. The development of my abilities should not be weaker than magisters!
Austin's eyes glistened before he looked away.
He was a little envious at first.
However, Austin now believed in his route to success.
In the path of cell evolution, Austin might be the pioneer. However, even if he was alone, he believed that he would eventually reach the top!
The path of cell evolution was no weaker than that of a magister.
Austin's ability to hunt high-level vicious beasts was comparable to a tier-four magister. That was the best proof.
More importantly, it had only been a few days since Austin embarked on the path of cell evolution.
"Brother?"
Catherine gave Austin a puzzled look.
She had the illusion that Austin's aura had shifted at that moment.
There was more confidence and more determination.
As for why there was such a change, Catherine did not know.
The real battle began.
Elder Chuan used Thunder God's Spear to tear the ground apart and forced the Earth Shark Dragon out of the earth.
The Earth Shark Dragon was no pushover. It controlled the ground and used earth spikes to attack Elder Chuan.
It was a battle at a higher level which even a tier-four magister would find it difficult to interfere.
The only thing they could do was to get inside the Fire Dragon transport vehicle as soon as possible to prevent more incidents.
The Vicious Beast Town could not fall, but comparatively speaking, a Fire Dragon transport vehicle was more expensive.
Most of the armor on the Fire Dragon transport vehicle came from elite-level or even commander-level vicious beasts!
The apprentice magisters entered the vehicle hurriedly.
Austin pulled Catherine into the seventh carriage.
Before entering the carriage, Austin paused and looked in the direction of the fifth carriage with a puzzled expression.
"What's wrong? Austin?"
Catherine tilted her head and asked.
"A dead man? No… nothing. Maybe I'm mistaken."
"Hurry up!"
"Don't block the door!"
With those behind urging, Austin had to pull Catherine into the carriage.
Soon, the 'Fire Dragon' started moving.
Amidst the rumbling thunder, everyone set off with heavy hearts and began their return journey.
As for the battle between Elder Chuan and the Earth Shark Dragon?
Whether the beast tide in Vicious Beast Town had died down, or how many casualties there were in the military, the assistant examiners, and the chief examiners.
They would know anything after they entered the vehicle.
Many magisters clenched their fists.
It was the first time they felt so powerless!
The 'Fire Dragon' traveled at top speed.
Perhaps as a precaution, the Fire Dragon was moving forward at full speed.
It was twice as fast as when he came.
Austin had never imagined that such a bulky creature could run so fast.
Even the ordinary commander-level vicious beasts might not be able to catch up, let alone elite-level vicious beasts.
In just half the time, the Fire Dragon returned to Faye City.
When they saw the towering fortress standing between the ruins of the wasteland, everyone's alertness fell and began to relax.
On the other side of the tall city wall were traces of human civilization!
It was also where their family was!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Suddenly, the 'Fire Dragon' transport vehicle shook violently and almost got thrown off the road.
Everyone got a fright.
"What happened?"
"What's going on!"
"Are we under attack?"
Austin closed his eyes and extended his senses.
Clusters of life force appeared in Austin's mind.
The life force displayed beside him belonged to the magisters in the carriage.
Above the carriage, there was indeed a giant bird-like beast attacking the transport vehicle.
As for what type of beast it was, Austin did not know.
Judging from the level of life force, it was definitely another elite-level vicious beast!
