The battle erupted suddenly, with Sain and his companion taking the initiative.
There was a reason why Lena was called "crazy" by the other apprentices; she had no qualms about attacking on Black Street!
Her huge fireball, emitting a deep blue light, was not only larger in size than Sain's Minor Fireball Spell, but also more powerful!
The fireball smashed directly into Scarface Joque's face, and because Lena acted so quickly, and Joque had no preparation, it seemed that in the next second, there would be a scene of brain matter bursting and exploding.
Magicians are all weak in physical constitution, and without Magic Shield, the resilience of a magic apprentice is not necessarily much stronger than that of a middle-aged man.
The main reason was that no one expected Lena to take action!
A pale light suddenly appeared among Scarface Joque's group of people.
Sain had magical equipment, and of course, there were people in Scarface Joque's group who had it too.
This was an emergency warning device, and the pale light came from a short silver wand that looked similar in appearance to Sain's Acidic Wand of Strength.
The owner of this wand was a male intermediate-level apprentice with a pale complexion.
It seemed that he didn't want to get involved in this advanced apprentice battle, let alone use his precious magic item for no reason.
The Magic Shield, condensed by the pale Magic Spring light, didn't even last two seconds before being shattered by Lena's powerful fireball.
However, those two seconds gave the people within the range of the fireball a bit of reaction time.
Along with the Magic Shield, Lena's fireball also disintegrated.
But the deep blue fireball didn't disappear completely; it decomposed into nearly twenty smaller, glowing yellow fireballs.
This was an unexpected turn of events!
Every magic spell is unique, and even if it's the same Fireball Spell, it will produce different results due to the different users.
Lena's deep blue fireball had been modified and strengthened by her special methods, and the situation where it exploded and dispersed into twenty smaller secondary fireballs was not what the Fireball Spell should look like, as recorded in the library of the Magic Academy.
The formidable strength of the senior apprentice can be seen from this! And Lena, who has always shown talent and excellence, despite just being promoted, is not an ordinary senior apprentice.
The bursting secondary fireball caused considerable damage to Scarface Joque and his team.
The main casualties were the novice apprentices who, due to their weak strength, were caught in the high-level apprentice's magical coverage, which was simply a disaster.
In addition, two slow-reacting low-level apprentices were also affected by the Minor Fireball Spell, causing significant burns.
In the blink of an eye, just one move caused nearly half of Scarface Joque's team to be killed or injured.
It was then that Scarface Joque and his team finally counterattacked. The first to take action was a female apprentice with pale red short hair and intermediate apprentice-level strength, who was dissatisfied with Lena's sudden attack.
At Dark Magic Academy, the ratio of male apprentices has always been higher due to the school's extremely competitive mechanism.
In this environment, women who grow to become intermediate-level or higher apprentices are almost never weak.
Sometimes they can be even more ruthless than male apprentices because they simply cannot survive in the cut-throat environment of the academy without enough skill.
With a scream, a Sonic System was emitted from the female apprentice's mouth.
This was Sain's first encounter with the Sonic System magic, and he was amazed at the speed, which exceeded his understanding of ordinary magic.
Indeed, Dark Magic Academy is a place full of hidden talent.
The fast-paced Sonic System magic quickly covered Sain and Lena's surroundings.
Faced with the intermediate-level magic "Succubus Scream," Sain, who was only a low-level apprentice, stumbled.
Fortunately, the weak Mental Power recovery mechanism from the Acidic Wand of Strength in Sain's hand prevented him from being affected too much by this magic.
The main target of Succubus Scream was actually Lena by Sain's side.
Although Lena did not have the Acidic Wand of Strength to ease the Mental Power, as a high-level apprentice, she managed to withstand the attack with her higher Mental Power value.
As a middle-level magic, Succubus Scream must have had significant consumption, and it was difficult for the intermediate female apprentice to release a second wave in a short time.
Therefore, the initiative once again fell to Lena.
She took out a black bracelet from her hand, which was a magical item that Lena owned and rarely used, as her cohabiting boyfriend Sain knew.
Lena chanted another urgent spell, and with the dull black light emanating from her bracelet, the next magic attack was about to come.
At this moment, Joque and his companions' attacks also followed one after another.
This was the consequence of being ganged up on, even though Lena's strength surpassed everyone present, she was still only one person, while Joque and his companions were low-level apprentice magicians, with eleven of them present, including four intermediate-level apprentices, including Joque.
The one who attacked after Lena and the female Sonic System apprentice was Joque, who did not choose the traditional method of chanting spells, but instead took out a short sword from his waist and rushed towards Sain and Lena.
This was Joque's unique fighting style, with pale red flame patterns spreading from the hilt of his short sword.
It was not because Joque's short sword was a magical equipment, but because he had integrated his own Fire Power of Elements into it.
In the magical world, there was a professional term for this called Fire Element Enchantment.
Joque's movements were fast, which was due to his years of honing in the Shadowy Territory, the underground world.
The scars all over his body were proof of his strength.
Sain's melee and reaction abilities were not bad, but compared to Joque, he was still slightly inferior.
This was because they were not pursuing the same path, Sain specialized in magic while Joque focused on physical abilities.
However, Joque's movements were still not as fast as Sain's!
His enchanted long sword had already targeted Lena. Since Lena had attacked first, Joque now had the idea of seriously injuring or even killing her.
If it was a one-on-one fight, Joque would never be Lena's opponent.
But don't forget, he had more than ten companions here.
Especially with Lena's almost indiscriminate Fireball attack just now, this crazy woman had offended everyone.
It was clear that Lena had only recently broken through to become a high-level apprentice, and this was Joque's only opportunity to seriously injure or even kill her.
"The only person who can become Andis' master apprentice is me!"
"This year's academy award belongs to me!"
"You ignorant crazy woman, go to hell!" Joque's inner rage roared out, revealing the source of his conflict with Lena.
However, Joque's surprise attack was not successful, as three Corrosive Acid spells suddenly appeared in front of him, making his face turn pale and his whole body shiver.
