"Alice, why are you here?
"Today isn't the final of the grand disciple competition. Why are you here? Aren't you going to watch the competition?"
Lin Lei was puzzled. Alice didn't have Eye of Inspection, so she had given up on watching the final by coming here.
Alice shook her little head, "I know who's going to win. Norton is very talented and has been stuck at the peak stage of the ninth level for a very, very long time, and might break through and become a sorcerer any moment, but Natasha has long ago reached the peak stage of the first level of Sorcerer Realm. Even if Norton broke through on spot, e, he wouldn't be a match for the Holy Maiden."
Alice paused for a moment and said, "Lin Lei, I'm afraid that our White Tiger Tower will be disbanded soon."
Linley frowned. He asked, "What's going on? Why will the White Tiger Tower be disbanded?"
Although the White Tiger Tower hadn't done much in the past few years, it had produced quite a few talented disciples. No matter what, it shouldn't be disbanded.
Alice shook her head. "Lin Lei, you don't know. Every year, each tower has its own test. The White Tiger Tower can't pass the test each year, so it can't receive any cultivating resources. The disciples of the White Tiger Tower have left and gone to the other towers...
"Even Abby joined another tower."
Alice said helplessly.
"Based on what you said..." Lin Lei scratched his head and said, "Right now, we're the only disciples of the White Tiger Tower?"
"That's about it."
Lin Lei was speechless.
How long had it been since he had been locked up in the isolation room? Less than three months, right? And the White Tiger Tower was about to collapse?
Alice was Hugh's daughter, so strictly speaking, she wasn't a disciple of the White Tiger Tower.
So he was the only one left in the White Tiger Tower?
"Lin Lei, I suppose you know that my father once suffered an injury?"
Alice asked.
Linley nodded.
"My father's health has been deteriorating recently. Although he didn't tell me, I can sense that he probably won't be able to hold on for much longer."
Linley could hear the grief in Alice's voice.
"Don't worry, Alice. I was raised by the Tower Lord. If he is gone, I will protect you."
Hearing his words, Alice puffed up her cheeks.
"What? You are so much weaker than me. No matter what, I'm the one protecting you."
"Hahahaha, then you will protect me."
Hearing Linley's joke, Alice felt a bit better. She put down the fruits, preparing to leave.
Watching Alice leave, Lin Lei thought for a moment and said to her, "Alice, when practicing magic, you can't just chant the words. You have to feel the flow of magical energy in your body. Only then can you control and use the magical energy freely.
"You don't even need to think about how to connect the different spells. You just need to focus your mind on the flow of magical energy in your body, and then you will determine the best spell to use."
Alice's back stiffened and her large eyes were filled with shock.
What Lin Lei had just said was the key to Alice's current bottleneck.
"Lin Lei, you..."
Linley shook his head and turned around.
"Go."
Linley was had the God-blessing level Magic Affinity. To him, Alice's problem was as easy as a child's simple math problem.
After Alice left, Lin Lei once more activated his Eye of Inspection, looking towards the arena.
The disciple competition had reached its final part.
The arena was surrounded by big crowds. While the disciples watched and cheered under the arena, the tower lords and elders of the Li Fire Sect watched it on the high platform in the distance.
After all, the people on the arena were the rising stars of the Li Fire Sect!
The Li Fire Holy Maiden Natasha.
She was only seventeen years old, but she had already broken through to the peak stage of the first level of Sorcerer Realm.
And her magic affinity was close to the first realm!
Obviously, Natasha well-deserved her title of the Holy Maiden!
Today Natasha was wearing purple clothes. Her face was cold, and her eyes were full of arrogance.
Her opponent was Norton, the first disciple of the Blue-Eyed White Dragon Tower.
He was already at the peak stage of level nine apprentice.
Although his cultivation level was not as high as Natasha's, he was a little older than Natasha and had more experience in actual combat.
"Natasha, please show mercy on me after the fight starts. Don't let me lose too badly."
Norton chuckled and said to Natasha.
Natasha shrugged it off. "You talk too much. Hurry up and fight."
"Fine!"
Norton narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed across his eyes.
Then, he swung his staff and dashed towards Natasha.
At the same time, a faint flame appeared on Norton's staff. It was the signature spell of the Li Fire Sect, the Mark of Li Fire!
Boom!
A violent explosion sounded between the two of them!
"Norton is so powerful. To be able to cast such a powerful spell in such a short time, he must have some understanding of magic affinity."
"Although he hasn't touched the threshold of it yet, he's definitely not far from it!"
Under the arena, people were talking among themselves.
"Not bad."
Natasha raised her eyebrows, and the staff in her hand also shot towards Norton with a flame bursting out from its top.
It was also the Mark of Li Fire!
But unlike Norton's spell, Natasha's Mark of Li Fire was so powerful that it didn't look like a magic spell!
The flame exploded!
Instantly, the surrounding air shook!
Then, a deafening roar came from the arena!
Norton was sent flying by the aftershock and fell out of the arena, looking miserable.
He was stunned on the spot.
It was only one spell! And it was the same spell as his. Everyone was shocked. For a moment, the arena was completely silent.
Natasha snorted, put away her staff, and said lightly, "So weak."
