This was an unexpected result. Many people were waiting to see how embarrassed Linley Bart would look after losing.

After all, he was just a playboy. Not many people in the academy had a good impression of him.

Even the teachers did not think highly of him. Andrew, on the other hand, was a sorcery genius. He had no chance of losing the competition.

But the truth was laid before them. Andrew had lost.

Andrew couldn’t believe that he had lost just like that. The earth element magic that he was so proud of was instantly destroyed.

Even if he were to lose, he shouldn’t have lost in such a manner.

He could accept the defeat if the opponent had used a stronger magic spell to defeat him, but he could not accept losing without even understanding why he had lost.

This was too humiliating for him.

Andrew couldn’t believe what had just happened. He was beginning to even doubt whether he was even a good sorcerer.

The audience below the stage was speechless. They were confused at what they had just seen too.

A second ago, Andrew was still in a dominant position, with his spells covering the entire arena.

As long as Linley Bart took one more step forward, his magic spell would have defeated Linley Bart.

However, at this moment, Andrew’s magic spells were rendered ineffective and useless.

Linley Bart seemed to have effortlessly dispelled Andrew’s magic. Perhaps not even a magister was able to do this.

The audience couldn’t believe their eyes.

The referee in the arena was stunned as well. Only now then did he realize what had happened. “Linley Bart is the victor!”

He had originally been prepared to use his own magic to help Linley Bart to prevent him from suffering from heavy injuries. But in the blink of an eye, Linley had broken Andrew’s magic and even took him down.

Many teachers were still in a daze.

Linley had won just like that?

If his previous wins were attributed to luck, this win against Andrew solidified the fact that he was a capable sorcerer.

Some of the teachers began to whisper to each other, thinking that they might be able to win the championship again in this year’s Five Great Sorcery Academy Competition.

The Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy was a school for genius sorcerers. Linley Bart might become the genius amongst the many geniuses!

He was probably just pretending to be a hedonistic son. This kid was too low-profile.

“Good, good.” In the spectators’ room, even the principal started clapping.

He did not say much, only saying a few words of praise before walking out.

The other teachers also rarely saw the principal praise a student like this and thus they paid even more attention to Linley Bart.

A sorcerer acknowledged by the principal of the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy would definitely become one of the top sorcerers in the continent in the future.

At the end of today’s internal academy tournament, although the ten students representing the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy had been selected, they would still need to fight against each other to decide who would be the official team members and who would be the substitute team members.

And, most importantly, who was the champion.

Only the champion was qualified to become the captain.

Those who could be ranked in the top ten were all proud sons of heaven. No one felt that their strength would be below others.

Everyone wanted to be the champion.

When it came to the Five Great Sorcery Academy Competition, as the team leader, he would definitely be the one who received the most attention. Once he won the championship, he would definitely be the center of attention.

No one wanted to give up this honor.

The academy’s top ten ranking competition would be held in three days.

After the rankings of the top ten students of the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy were announced, it was quickly spread across the continent.

After all, the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy was the most prestigious academy on the entire continent. The other academies also paid close attention to news from this academy.

The royal family and the aristocrats were well-informed as well. They had their own sources within the empire and were also paying attention to the movements of the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy.

When the top ten were confirmed, their names were sent to the nobles. They wanted to see if their sons or daughters were on this list.

However, it was clear that most people were disappointed.

However, there was a common thing amongst all of them. They had realized that there was an unexpected name on the list. “Linley Bart.”

Many people wondered if they had seen it wrongly or if the name list was wrong.

How could Linley Bart possibly appear on the list of the top ten students of the academy? This was the list for the representatives of the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy for the Five Great Sorcery Academy Competition!

Linley Bart was a famous hedonistic son of a wealthy family. He was known to be ignorant and incompetent.

How could this person become one of the top ten students in the academy?

There must be a mistake somewhere.

Linley Bart was a person with little to no talent for magic. This was a secret that had been made public within the empire.

He had relied on his father to enter the Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy. On the first day when he had entered the academy, he had already been tested for his potential. The results showed that he was destined to be a useless sorcerer.

Many people were waiting to see him make a fool of himself in the academy.

No one could deny the accomplishments of Linley’s father, Duke Bart. However, when it came to his son, no one believed that he would be able to inherit his father’s position as a duke. If he succeeded the nobility, in less than three years, his father’s savings would be entirely gone.

However, the name list gave them a huge slap in the face.

Linley Bart had actually reached the top ten of the entire academy.

Even their son hadn’t made it to the top ten. How could Linley Bart possibly make it to the top ten?

No one believed what was on the list. They felt that it was a mistake and immediately asked their subordinates to check it again.

This was except for one person, Duke Bart.

Linley’s father.
