They no longer looked like humans in their current state.

Before them stood a formidable assembly of Arcanists from the Mystic Arts Faction, the Holy Arts Faction, and the Combat Arts Faction. The surrounding air felt chaotic with the clash of energy…

Boom!

With another Massive Holy Smite, the Black Dome protecting the Academy had finally collapsed!
