Actually, Karl was not looking down on them.

It was not arrogance.

He only felt that one-on-one was too boring.

He had absolute confidence in his own strength.

After all, he had been sharing Rayne’s cultivation experience for the past few days and accumulating combat experience in the wilderness.

He was already far above these students who had been accessed on that same day.

Under such circumstances, a one-on-one battle was unnecessary.

“Karl, it’s good to be confident. But if you’re overconfident, you’ll become a joke.”

Below the stage, a student from Rost High School said slowly.

Then, he floated up, bringing with him a gust of wind. “Since you dare to say such arrogant words, let’s see if you can get past me.”

He clasped his hands together, and an extremely powerful blade of wind erupted from his palms.

It slashed at Karl.

“Karl, his name is Sora. He has wind magical talent. Be careful.” Adrien reminded him.

“Wind magical talent?”

Karl repeated slowly.

Then, he looked at Sora’s wind blade. He did not dodge. Instead, he extended his hand to block it.

“He’s meeting my Swift Wind Blade with his hands? Arrogant, too arrogant!”

Sora’s face scrunched up in anger.

He knew very well how powerful his attack was.

An ordinary Level One magical beast could be killed by his Swift Wind Blade.

He did not believe that Karl would be able to meet his attack with just his bare hands.

What happened next shocked him. The Swift Wind Blade landed on Karl’s hand.

It was as if it had struck hard steel.

It did not even leave a mark.

He didn’t even manage to cut Karl.

“You got some skill. No wonder you’re so arrogant.”

Sora’s pupils constricted slightly.

He did not expect that his attack would cause no damage at all to Karl.

However, this was not his strongest attack.

“I’m going to get serious now,” said Sora.

Then, a violent gust of wind erupted from his body.

His aura became increasingly stronger.

Countless wind blades surrounded him.

Some wind blades hit the pillars. Instantly countless scratches appeared on the hard rock pillars.

“Use your ultimate move, or you won’t have a chance to.”

Countless wind blades condensed.

They formed a huge terrifying wind blade.

It floated in the air. Some people’s legs started to tremble uncontrollably when they saw this huge wind blade.

“Ultimate move?”

Karl did not reply.

His ultimate move was naturally the Calamity of Destruction.

Putting aside the fact that Rayne didn’t allow him to use it unnecessarily, based on Sora’s current strength, he would be able to defeat him easily even without it.

Then, Karl stretched out his hands. With a rumble, thunder roared.

Lightning surrounded Karl, and electric arcs swam around his body.

Lightning surrounded Karl, and electricity arced around his body.

He was bathed in lightning, like a god of lightning.

Whoosh!

When Karl used his magic, the crowd was in an uproar.

Although the students of Violet High School had already seen it once during the assessment ceremony, they were still shocked to see it now.

Too cool, too strong!

“What a powerful aura!”

When the students from Rost High School felt Karl’s aura, their eyes narrowed.

As for Sora, when he saw Karl’s magic, his expression turned grave.

Feeling threatened by Karl, he knew that he could not wait any longer. He had to attack quickly.

Under Sora’s control, the huge wind blade slashed towards Karl.

This wind blade was not very fast, but the aura it carried was incomparably tyrannical.

“Boom!”

Karl did not want to waste any more time.

With a wave of his hand, the sound of thunder filled the entire square.’

A bolt of lightning snaked and twisted, infused with an even stronger aura.

It crashed into the huge wind blade.

Sora’s huge wind blade dissipated into the air without any resistance.

“Impossible! This is impossible!”

Sora’s expression twisted.

He had never imagined that his strongest attack would be so easily neutralized by his opponent.

Furthermore, Karl had yet to use his skills.

However, that was not the most terrifying thing.

The lightning released by Karl did not slow down even after destroying the wind blades.

They struck Sora.

“Ah!”

At that moment, a scream rang out. Sora felt as if he had been struck by a heavy blunt force.

He fell to the ground.

His jet-black hair had been burnt off by the lightning, and his clothes were in tatters.

His exposed skin was charred black.

His flesh burned.

Although Karl did not release the Calamity of Destruction, he was still an advanced one-star mage.

Even if it was just a regular attack, Sora would not be able to withstand it.

“This? How is this possible? Am I dreaming?”

“No way. No way. Sora was defeated by just one attack from Karl. Is Karl that powerful?”

“Did you notice that Sora used a skill while Karl only used a regular attack? Even so, Sora was still crushed!”

“In that case, if Karl were to use his skill, Sora might be dead?”

“Possibly.”

“Karl is way too powerful. He was assessed for magical talent on the same day as us, wasn’t he?”

“Maybe, this is the power of an elite magical talent. It’s really powerful.”

“I can’t imagine what would happen if that struck me. There might be nothing left of me.”

“This is too scary. Karl is too scary.”

“How terrifying!”

“Hiss!”

“Stop sucking, brother. If you absorb any more elements from the Magic Continent, there will be nothing left.

At that moment, everyone was utterly shocked.

Anyone with eyes could see how casual Karl’s attack was.

Even so, Sora was still crushed.

Too powerful.

“Er…”

The teachers at the Rost High School did not know what to say.

As far as they were concerned, even if Karl had an elite magical talent, it shouldn’t have grown to this extent in such a short period of time, right?

He had to be above Sora’s level to defeat him so easily with a regular attack.

Sora was now a middle-stage one star mage.

In other words, Karl was an advanced one star mage?

At the thought of this, the teachers at Rost High School were shocked.

How long has it been since the assessment ceremony?

It had only been five days.

In such a short period of time, Karl had become an advanced one-star mage?

Furthermore, he was not like Sora. Sora had the help of his family, which provided him with many cultivation resources.

That was how he reached the intermediate stage.

And what did Karl have?

His parents had died in battle, who else would help him?

Even so, his cultivation still rose to the advanced stage.

Terrifying. Simply terrifying.

This Karl was simply a monster!
