Project: Mage - The Frugal Mage

Chapter 60

Elsewhere… The place was a brown sand desert with high pillars made of earth, the place was extremely hot and some mirages could be seen. From time to time it was possible to see sandstorms blowing. This was the location of the earth element.

On one of the pillars was a beautiful young woman sitting cross-legged, her eyes closed as she meditated. In front of her was a sphere of energy from the earth element. The young woman was Liu Xia, she was using the method that Liu Yang had told her before, the method to lure the creatures of the earth.

Since Liu Xia has been using the earth element since that day at training camp, she kept that element as Xiao Mei had seen it. Liu Xia"s second element after the second awakening was not the earth element but another element. The earth element was one of Liu Yang"s elements, she can use the elements later because of certain things.

Roar !!!!!! Roar !!!!!! Roar !!!!!!

Creature sounds are heard not far from where Liu Xia was sitting, these creatures were lured because of the magical energy of the sphere.

Liu Xia opened her eyes slowly when she heard those roars. Looking at the horizon, she saw at least five giant scorpions made of stones, on the other side were two giant lizards made of sand, and on the other side were twenty stone golems.

By the time the creatures reached two meters from the pillar where Liu Xia was sitting, something amazing happened.

Twenty-seven stone spears with black lights at the end suddenly appeared, but the spears had a difference, two spears had brighter brights, five spears had a faint brighter, and twenty spears had only a faint brilliance. Liu Xia created these spears with her magical power and reinforced with magical energy, for each type of creature she reinforced with a different amount of magical energy.

Shuoo… Shuoo… Shuoo…

Liu Xia gently waved her fingers and the spears shot out like arrows coming out of the bow. The spears flew at high speed and pierced each of the creatures decisively and at their respective weaknesses. The creatures had not had a chance to scream before they disappeared and their cards floated toward Liu Xia, she just moved her black card and absorbed the cards.

After absorbing the points, Liu Xia closed her eyes again to meditate while channeling the magical energy of the earth and sphere to lure more creatures.

Sometime later…

"Zhu Long, look !! It seems that students attracted those creatures and defeated them all. "Four students appeared on a distant pillar, one of them pointed at Liu Xia. The four had the same uniforms, it showed that they were from the same school.

"Careful, she should not be an ordinary student. To defeat that amount of creature at the same time and in a short time, she must be a level 1 or 2 advanced mages, at least. "The young man named Zhu Long seemed to be the leader of the group, he seemed the oldest of all.


"Senior, I don"t think so, I used my telescope and saw that student"s look, I can say she"s a great beauty, I"ve never seen a girl as beautiful like her," Another young man said.

"Seriously?? Yao Jin, show me !! "The other students were also curious about this.

The young man named Yao Jin looked like a scholar wearing gla.s.ses, he waved his hand and a small circle of light appeared. The image was slowly approaching like a telescope. The image of Liu Xia sitting cross-legged and meditating appeared.

"She"s a beauty, I"ve never seen a girl as beautiful as her. Do you know who she is? From her uniform, she looks like she"s from East School. "Zhu Long asked, a beautiful girl like Liu Xia should not be unknown.

"Senior, according to the information in the database. Her name is Liu Xia, she"s an East School freshman, yet she"s already at the intermediate level. Another interesting piece of information is that she"s engaged to an East School freshman named Liu Yang, he"s just a level 5 novice mage."

"Yao Jin, are they an incestuous couple?" That was everyone"s first reaction to Yao Jin"s words.

"I have some friends who study at East School. According to the things I"ve heard about this couple, they are steps-siblings, the girl named Liu Xia is adopted by the couple Liu, who are the parents of the young man named Liu Yang. I think they grew up together and fell in love with each other, and as their parents accepted it, there should be no problem. "Yao Jin said casually, he was not caring about other people"s private affairs.

"Looks like this boy"s parents are trying to tie the girl up, she has a bright future ahead, while the boy is just complete trash" Yao Jin commented to someone who came from an influential clan like him. Beautiful and talented girls like Liu Xia should marry boys like him, that was to continue the mage"s bloodline. This was very common in the mage world.

"Senior, I fear you are mistaken about this. Look at that. "Yao Jin showed a video to the group. The video was about Liu Yang"s fight against the nine selected to represent the East School.

"This is…" Yao Jin and the other two didn"t know what to say when watching this video. They never imagined that a novice mage would be able to defeat some intermediate and advanced mages so quickly.

"Senior, I think this couple is expert control mages. You saw it, right? This boy named Liu Yang used what almost no young man our age can, this controls the element as if it were part of his body. Also, look at this video. "Yao Jin showed another video, but this time, the video was about Liu Xia fighting the twenty-nine students in her cla.s.s and ten more in Liu Yang"s cla.s.s. She defeated everyone in succession.

"It seems that the couple has the same teacher, otherwise how could they achieve such a controlling ability at such a young age? Even the five great clans of the country do not teach the youth of this fort. I think they will be the ones who will get the most points in this compet.i.tion. "Yao Jin said seriously, he understood that the couple was a great opponent.

"Yao Jin, should we attack while she"s meditating?" Zhu Long asked Yao Jin was his advisor.

"I fear this is risky and we could be beaten unless we are in a safe area and the four of us launch a surprise attack." Yao Jin spoke his opinion, he didn"t believe Liu Xia could find out where they were hidden.

"We need to get closer so we can attack, from the distance we are now, the surprise attack will be ineffective."

"We need to get closer to how many meters? From what we"ve seen, her detection ability is quite high. "One of them talked about the things they saw before when Liu Xia easily defeated all creatures.

"I think at least…" Before Yao Jin could finish speaking, the watch on Yao Jin"s wrist began to beep.

Peeeeeeeeeee !!!!

"This is bad!!!! Someone is attacking us !!! But who ???? !!! "Yao Jin was surprised when he heard the sharp sound of the clock.

"It"s her!!!! Look !!!!! "Another student pointed at the telescope, they saw that Liu Xia was looking straight at them with a cold look.

"How is this possible?? We are at a safe distance from her. How did she find us ??

Before anyone could respond, a black bubble completely covered the group before closing in and arresting the four. Seconds later, the bubble disappeared, leaving only the four black cards, which flew towards Liu Xia.

"Those who say bad things about my man in front of me deserve to be punished. You"re lucky to be in a school compet.i.tion, if it were in the real world, you would have suffered a lot more. "Liu Xia didn"t care that they planned to attack her because it was irrelevant, she competed, so it was normal for someone to try to attack her. However, the situation was different when they called Liu Yang as trash, it made Liu Xia extremely angry.

Liu Xia absorbed the points of the four cards, she did not even look at the points earned. To her, it was of little importance.

Somehow Liu Xia could hear what was said almost a hundred meters away. How could she do that?

In the real world, the place where partic.i.p.ants who were disqualified would meet was where the portal was, through which students had previously entered.

A light shone and four students appeared, they were Zhu Long, Yao Jin, and the other two students, they were defeated by Liu Xia and were sent out of the compet.i.tion field.

"What happened?" Zhu Long did not understand anything that had happened, a moment ago he and his teammates were planning to attack Liu Xia, but suddenly everything went dark and they appeared in the stadium again.

"Zhu Long looks like we were disqualified after being attacked by that girl. I never imagined she could see us from that distance. Her powers are from the element of darkness and earth, it should not have been possible that she saw or heard us unless she had magic equipment. "

"Looks like we let our guard down… We thought we were safe, but it looks like she"s already seen us and was spying on us. And when we talked about attacking her, she attacked us first. "Zhu Long could only sigh because of that. None of the four figured it would end this way.

"Good job, you did well, even though you were disqualified so soon." An elderly man appeared behind the four and spoke warmly, he did not find the performance of the four bad.

"Thank you princ.i.p.al"

"Come on, the others are waiting. You need to see what you were about to face. "The princ.i.p.al led the four of them to their school place. After that, he showed the fight scenes of Liu Xia. The more the group looked, the more shocked they were, for it was insane what she did.

"Princ.i.p.al, is this ... What is she ??" Yao Jin asked shakily. He had never seen this kind of control before.

"She"s just a student like you, but she focused her training on controlling the elements and magical energy. You should look at that too. "The director commented on Liu Xia before showing another video, this time the video was about Liu Yang. The group was also scared and shocked when they saw him fighting.

"What did you think of them?"

"I think both are monsters" That was the thinking of the four students. It was not only theirs but also everyone who was watching on site. Liu Yang and Liu Xia"s mastery of elemental control and magical energy was on a different level than a high school student, even college students can"t compare to both.

"It looks like this year"s compet.i.tion victory is already in the hands of the East School, with these two team members, they are invincible in the compet.i.tion where the requirement controls." The princ.i.p.al sighed as he spoke these words.

"When we get back to school, I"ll talk to the teachers and rephrase some things, we need to pay more attention to elemental and magical energy control cla.s.ses." That was the thinking of all the princ.i.p.als, teachers, and clan members influential after seeing what Liu Yang and Liu Xia did.

Watching the scenes of Liu Yang and Liu Xia fighting without having to use spells, what they did was something that could not be learned in a short time. The influential groups realized that it was necessary to teach young people to better control their powers. The sooner the better.
