Chapter 21: Light Sword of Punishment

“Do you want to trample me under your feet?”

Hughes looked at Ferri, who was leaning on his magic staff. The tired look in the latter’s eyes was clearly visible. Soon after, the corner of his mouth slowly curled into an arc.

It was as cold as a blade.

“I was afraid that you did not possess the qualification…”

Hughes suddenly lifted his head, and he clenched both of his hands tightly. The majestic golden magical energy that was emitting out from Hughes shrank quickly, the energy transformed into a pillar of light that shot up into the sky.

The pillar of light that shot into the sky blocked the blazing sun in the center of the arena.

Hughes chanted, “The bright one! The sins of mankind will be judged by you. You, who has been crowned with the name of God, shall descend!”

As Hughes chanted, Lorelei’s tome started flipping its pages wildly.

Streams of golden demonic energy streamed out from the tome and floated towards the pillar of light.

After doing all this, Hughes raised his head to look at the sky.

Although all the spectators in the arena were puzzled, they also raised their heads to look at the sky.

As everyone raised their heads to look, a huge golden figure suddenly appeared in the originally cloudless sky.

An angel holding a huge golden sword with six pure white wings stretched out from its back, wearing silver-white armor, appeared in front of everyone’s eyes.

Under the golden light, it was so majestic that it made people feel ashamed of themselves.

A holy, majestic, and emotionless mana fluctuation instantly exploded.

“This mana fluctuation…”

“A tier 3 spell that I’ve never seen before?”

In the northern audience stands, the white-haired old man, Archmage Rodney, and the other two people suddenly looked surprised.

“Quick… look, what’s that?”

“F*ck, f*ck, it’s So Big!”

“Why do I feel guilty when I look at it?”

“This mana fluctuation should be a Tier 3 spell!”

…

The surroundings of the arena suddenly burst into exclamations. That mana fluctuation clearly exceeded the scope of a Tier 2 spell. The current Hughes could actually cast a tier 3 spell!

“This kid… really has some ability.”

On the viewing gallery on the south side, the expressions of the second-year students also became grave. A tier 3 spell could be considered one of the best among the second-year students. They did not expect that a freshman who had yet to enter the academy would be able to use it, this made them sigh in their hearts. Anyone who had awakened an SS-grade elemental magic talent would not be easy to deal with.

Frederick’s handsome face did not move much. He just looked at the scene calmly, so no one could tell whether he was happy or angry.

Looking at the huge angel formed in the sky, Hughes finally breathed a sigh of relief. Previously, he had been unable to use this spell. Now, with the help of the tome, he had finally forcefully activated this spell.

Golden magical energy gushed out from Lorelei’s tome like a geyser. Then, it surged towards Hughes’s arm. Finally, it wrapped around his entire arm.

Hughes stared straight at the golden pillar of light that was about to shatter in front of him. He calmly waved his arm that was completely wrapped by the golden light.

In the sky, the silver-white angel held the sword in both hands. Then, it slowly raised it above its head. It was like a bowstring that was stretched to the limit. In an extremely short period of time, a large amount of magical energy was instantly condensed, the air around the angel seemed to have been torn apart by this enormous magical energy.

It was merely an extremely ordinary cleave. However, in the hands of the silver-white Angel, there was a momentum that could cause the mountains to collapse and the earth to crack. There was a surging magical energy mixed within it as it swept out. Finally, it directly collided with the blazing sun in front of Ferri’s slightly changed expression, it collided ferociously with the blazing sun!

Boom!

A low voice suddenly exploded in the arena. The golden greatsword looked as if it was like swatting a fly, swatting away the blazing sun, and then violently hitting the ground. The airwave seemed to shake the air.

All eyes were fixed unblinkingly on the smoke-filled ring.

Soon, the smoke cleared.

Two figures were confronting each other on the arena. One had a gloomy face, while the other was as calm as water.

Was this a draw?

Everyone looked at each other in dismay. Even that enormous attack from earlier was unable to defeat Ferri?

Just as everyone was stunned, a deathly pale colour suddenly surged onto Ferri’s gloomy face on the arena. After which, his body bent, and with a ‘pui’ sound, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

As this mouthful of fresh blood was spat out, Ferri’s aura seemed to wither in an instant. His pale face immediately caused the surrounding audience in the arena to erupt into an uproar.

“Ferri has lost!”

“Hughes is awesome!”

“Haha, Ferri has finally received his retribution!”

On the spectating area of the new students, Otis and the rest stared blankly at this scene. Then, surprise and excitement quickly surged onto their faces. The sound of cheering suddenly rang out, and the thunderous cheers… in an instant, the henchmen on Ferri’s side were completely suppressed.

Feier had lost, he could not show his pride off any longer.

The henchmen on Ferri’s side gritted their teeth unwillingly. However, they had to admit that Hughes was indeed powerful. Initially, they had thought that he was just a freshman who had relied on his good luck to obtain an SS-grade magic talent, however, they did not expect that Hughes could actually use a tier 3 spell. After all, many sophomores could not even use it.

Upon hearing the deafening cheers from the freshmen, Hughes smiled. With a wave of his hand, the angel in the sky slowly disappeared. Then, he looked at Ferri, who had a gloomy expression on his face, and said, “There’s no need to fight anymore!”

Ferri slowly lifted his head and stared at Hughes with a sinister look in his eyes. The cheers from the audience were like knives that cut into his heart. They trampled on the arrogance in his heart, causing the corners of his mouth to twitch a little. In his eyes… a ferocious expression was revealed.

When Hughes saw Ferri’s appearance, he frowned slightly. The cruel training in the wild previously had caused him to faintly sense a trace of danger at this moment.

“I’ll kill you!”

A ferocious look instantly appeared on Ferri’s face. He reached into the inner pocket of his shirt and took out a black gun from his pocket. Then, he pulled the trigger, and an extremely shocking mana fluctuation shot out…

In the north audience stand, the faces of the white-haired old man, Archmage Rodney, and the other two people suddenly changed. Then, Archmage Rodney suddenly stood up and shouted, “Ferri, what are you doing?”
