Chapter 66: The Little Princess’s Duel
However, Rui Li suddenly remembered something. During the meeting, she seemed to have heard that Little Stephen had beaten up more than a dozen Warriors. And the Old Mage had also said that after that serious injury, Little Stephen’s strength seemed to have greatly increased, especially in martial power ; his improvement was very fast.
Regarding this point, Rui Li couldn’t help but worry again. She wasn’t afraid that Little Stephen would hit the Little Princess during the Duel, because this was a battle between Mages. If he used physical attacks, he would be directly judged the loser, because that was simply losing face for a Mage. When the time came, she wouldn’t need to act; the Old Mage would definitely give Little Stephen a good beating first.
But the problem was that Warriors were usually very agile. Ice Arrow was, after all, a Level 1 Spell. Although its speed was as fast as a bullet, for Warriors, there was still a certain chance to dodge it. Especially high-level Warriors; sometimes Ice Arrow simply couldn’t hit them.
And although Little Steven might not be that powerful, he had a record of dodging Ice Arrow! Last time, he dodged the Little Princess’s Ice Arrow first, and then knocked down the poor Little Princess. Regardless of whether that was an accident or not, for Rui Li, it was a hidden danger. What if Little Steven got lucky again and dodged the Little Princess’s Ice Arrow? Wouldn’t she be bound to lose? Losing that ring didn’t matter, but the key was not getting the elite Imp, which she really couldn’t accept.
To avoid such an accident, Rui Li finally decided to let the Little Princess cast Ice Shield as her first spell in the Duel. As long as this shield was on her body, she could remain invincible. Because although the Little Princess’s own Magic Power was not as good as Little Steven’s, with the addition of the magic bra, she could almost rival a Level 3 Mage, far stronger than Little Steven’s level. When the time came, if both sides just exchanged spells, the Little Princess would definitely win.
However, although Ice Shield was also a Level 1 Spell, it was a bit more complicated than Ice Arrow and took much more time. Although with the help of the magic bra, the Little Princess could complete it in a little over three seconds, such a result was a bit too high. It could easily arouse the Old Mage’s suspicion. Rui Li hesitated for a while, and finally, she hardened her heart and decided to do it. Anyway, she had the handle on the old guy, so she wasn’t afraid he would cause too much trouble!
After explaining the reason to the Little Princess, Rui Li began special training for her. First was the training on the time to cast Ice Shield. After that was about right, it was time for the accuracy training of Ice Arrow. After all, battle still relied on attack spells to end. Just an Ice Shield alone definitely couldn’t win. It is worth mentioning that in this attack training, Rui Li set up a target made of ice sculpture for the Little Princess in her own Mage Tower. The appearance of that target was exactly like Little Steven himself; it was almost identical. Only a powerful Ice Magic Saint like Rui Li could control magic power so precisely, reaching the level of directly creating statues.
And when the Little Princess saw Little Steven’s appearance, her eyes immediately turned red, and her breathing became heavy. Without Rui Li urging her, she screamed and started attacking crazily. Ice Arrows were thrown over as if they were free, until she smashed Little Steven’s ice sculpture into pieces before she stopped. Seeing her like this, Rui Li’s eyes immediately lit up. She thought to herself, it seems that being bullied by Little Steven this time wasn’t a bad thing. At least it gave Little Xue great motivation. If it were before, if she was asked to do attack training, who knows how this little girl would have slacked off. She would never have been as crazy as today.
…
Finally, the day of the Duel arrived. The Old Mage and Old Xie waited early on the first floor of the Mage Tower. There was a very spacious magic practice room there, which was very suitable for a Duel between Mages. Rui Li and the Little Princess didn’t keep them waiting long and arrived soon.
The moment the Little Princess saw Old Xie, she immediately shot fire from her eyes. Ignoring the presence of elders, she couldn’t help but curse directly, “Damn Little Stephen, today I will definitely teach you a lesson!”
“Just you?” Old Xie said disdainfully, twitching his mouth, “It’s getting late, haven’t you woken up yet?” The meaning was, little girl, are you talking in your sleep?
Although the Little Princess was young, she was not stupid at all. She immediately realized the mockery in Old Xie’s words and angrily retorted, “You’re the one who hasn’t woken up! You big lazy pig!”
Regarding the tempers of these two little guys, the Old Mage and Rui Li also had a headache. The Little Princess had a noble status, so they couldn’t say anything to her. But Old Xie was the one being provoked; scolding him would seem too unreasonable.
In the end, it was Rui Li who stepped forward and advised, “Alright, alright! Stop talking nonsense! Let’s make a long story short. Teacher, if you and Little Steven are ready, shall we begin?”
“Okay!” The Old Mage nodded and said, “Little Steven, are you ready?”
“Pei!” Old Xie immediately said disdainfully, “Just dealing with a useless little girl, do I need to prepare? I can solve her anytime, anywhere!”
“Arrogant!” The Little Princess shouted angrily, “You only know how to brag!”
“Little Steven, you are very arrogant!” Even Rui Li couldn’t stand it anymore and said directly, “Fine, let’s start quickly. I want to see what ability you have to talk such big talk!”
“Sure!” Old Xie said with a smile, “I’m always ready!”
“Then let’s begin!” The Little Princess then impatiently came to the center of the venue.
Old Xie was too lazy to talk nonsense. He just followed with a smile and stood about 30 meters away from her, looking lazy, as if he didn’t take this Duel seriously at all. This made the already angry Little Princess even more furious.
Seeing this, the Old Mage and Rui Li looked at each other and smiled wryly. Then the Old Mage signaled Rui Li to be the Referee and say ‘Start’.
Rui Li modestly agreed. Then she said to the two people in the middle of the venue, “Get ready. I’ll count to three and then start. 1, 2, 3, Start!”
