The powerful axe attack shocked the entire arena .
Nobody expected that Hugo was saving a trump card like that . Facing an attack of that magnitude, Christine was surely severely injured or dead .
Dina and the others stood up in excitement . They clenched their fists and looked at the cloud of dust on the arena in anticipation .
But contrary to them, I shook my head .
"He was too impatient . " I sighed .
"Huh?" Dina and the others were startled . They looked at me questioningly but I just shook my head and did not explain .
When the cloud of dust cleared, they understood my meaning .
A giant crater had formed in Christine's position . Christine, however, was a few meters away, completely unscathed .
Hugo, on the other hand, was chained to the ground by a group of colorful magic chains .
I recognized the spell instantly, it was an elementless fifth-layer spell called [Mana Chains] .
But Christine's use of the spell was impressive . She had cast it long ago below her feet and baited Hugo to attack her . Then, when he was about to connect the blow, she teleported a few meters away and activated the spell .
When Hugo realized that something was wrong, he could not retract his attack . The battle had been lost .
If Hugo would have been a bit more cautious, using instead a weaker attack, he would have avoided the chains and Christine would have lost .
Unfortunately, he was too eager for success .
Christine wiped off the dust on her clothes and walked towards Hugo slowly . She then cast a wind arrow on her hand and pressed it against Hugo's neck .
Although Hugo gritted his teeth and tried to struggle, his body was already spent . He could only stare at Christine with a look of unwillingness .
Christine curled her lips up in a prideful smile and looked at Evelyn . "Headmistress?"
Evelyn sighed and raised her hand . "The winner is Christine . "
Christine smirked . "Good, I was already almost out of mana . "
"""Ohhhhhhh!!!""" Once more, the arena was enveloped in cheers .
The observing students were completely astonished . The way that Christine managed to reverse the battle was incredible . It was a show of her abundant battle experience .
Christine smiled to the public and curtsied politely .
Amid the cheers of the crowd, Hugo left the stage dejectedly .
Dina heaved a sigh of disappointment . She patted Hugo's shoulders and consoled him .
"It's alright . This fight will be a good experience for you . "
Hugo nodded and sat silently in a chair without raising his head .
Dina sighed again .
She looked around and looked at us .
"Then who is next . "
This time, Daisy stood up .
"I will go, princess . "
Dina thought for a moment and nodded . "Good luck . "
Daisy smiled . She then walked towards me and held my hand . "Your highness, wish me good luck . "
I smiled dotingly and kissed her forehead .
"Good luck, show them who is the boss . "
Daisy blushed and nodded confidently . "I will . " She then stepped into the stage with a serious look .
When Christine saw that another fifth-layer was sent onto the stage, she smiled disdainfully .
"Is it the best the student council can get?"
Daisy smiled calmly and bowed . "Miss Christine, please guide me . "
Christine frowned . She observed Daisy carefully but was unable to find anything wrong .
At that moment, headmistress Evelyn looked at Christine .
"Christine, are you sure you want to continue in your condition?"
Christine smirked . "It's more than enough to defeat someone like her . "
The headmistress nodded . "Very well . Then, are you ready?"
When Daisy and Christine nodded, the headmistress waved her hand .
"Start!"
With the headmistress signal, Christine attacked .
She insta-cast a spell and aimed it to Daisy . A fireball flew towards her face .
Daisy's expression turned serious . Before the fireball could reach her, a lightning bolt left her body . The lightning bolt clashed against the fireball and consumed it instantly . Then, it continued unimpeded towards Christine .
Christine was surprised . She hurriedly cast a mana shield and jumped back . But at that moment, three lightning snakes surged out from the ground . The lightning snakes appeared around Christine and bit towards her .
Christine, however, was an experienced mage . She instantly cast an earth barrier that stopped and guided the lightning snakes to the ground . She then jumped and released a wind arrow towards Daisy .
At this point, Christine's lack of mana was evident . Even although Daisy was just in the fifth layer, she was suppressing Christine completely .
Furthermore, Daisy was not rash like Hugo . She attacked calmly from her position, without rushing to get the victory .
In exchange, the pressure Christine was enduring increased drastically . Lightning snakes and lightning chains grew around her, clashing against the weaker and weaker mana shields of Christine and consuming her little remaining mana slowly .
Suddenly, Daisy shouted a word .
"Grow!"
Instantly, a lightning tree appeared behind Christine . Christine's expression changed . She tried to evade the tree, but the lightning roots and branches surged out to entangle her .
It was a spell that I taught Daisy not long ago, [Gungnir Seed]!
According to the legends, Gungnir was made of one of the branches of the world tree . This spell consists of plating a lightning seed that will grow in a tree filled with lightning branches and roots, Gungnirs .
I did not expect that Daisy could use it already . Although it's still full of flaws, the basic shape is already done . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
Christine's mana shield was destroyed instantly, and the spells she cast were consumed by the growing lightning tree . Finally, one of the branches grabbed her leg .
Christine paled . A pain so strong that seemed to burn her nerves attacked her entire body . Christine's mouth let out a small gasp of pain and her eyes widened .
Then, her body started to glow .
And all the mana in the surroundings rushed towards her .
"Get out!" Christine screamed in anger in pain . Instantly, a powerful shockwave crushed the lightning tree .
Daisy was surprised . She hurriedly created a lightning barrier that stopped the shockwave and stared in Christine's direction .
There, Christine was floating with a look of anger in her eyes .
