“Colonel Mason, why are you here?” Mo Fan had to ask.

Lt. Colonel Mason gave him an ugly smile and beat his chest, as if he was trying to look more like an ape.

“The Lieutenant General acknowledged my strength after I gave him Zonah’s head, so he a.s.signed me to be Brigadier General Blair’s a.s.sistant for this operation,” Mason answered confidently.

“Which means, you are the second-in-command of this group?!” Mo Fan palmed his forehead.

“That’s right!”

Not again! He led his troop right toward the enemy’s guns every single time!

Two Fiery Fists with long burning contrails were flying at them from around three hundred meters away.

Mo Fan glanced at the Fiery Fists. He did not take a defensive stance right away.

Based on his experience over the years, the two Fiery Fists were slightly off-angle. They were not going to hit the group.

Mo Fan ignored the Fiery Fists. Besides, it was not like he was the only Mage in the group.

“Water Curtain!” a loud yell sounded nearby. Karl had already stepped forward. He shoved his hand forward and established a standard Water Curtain.

The Water Curtain caught the two Fiery Fists that had appeared out of nowhere and put out the flames in no time.

“It’s common to be hit by spells that go out of control in the middle of a battle. You should focus on controlling your magic instead of trying to put on a show in a situation like this,” Professor Xylan reminded him.

Karl had stepped forward to show off his capabilities, yet he was criticized by Professor Xylan instead. The glow on his face dimmed. “Yes, Professor,” he sighed respectfully.

Several Ice Spears were thrown at them from around four hundred meters away. The spells were more accurate this time, landing right between the people in the group.

Mo Fan watched the spells approach, estimating their paths again. The Ice Spears would be landing right on Mason’s head, if he insisted on standing at the very front like an idiot.

Professor Xylan lifted her eyes. She had also noticed the incoming projectiles, yet she closed her eyes again and remained silent.

She had brought along quite a few high-achiever students from the Aorus Sacred Inst.i.tute. If they could not handle these random attacks coming in, it was better for them to die to the Ice Spears!

As she expected, another student stepped forward to defend them.

It was Su Xi’s turn. She Cast a Shadow Spell and fired a few Shadow Needles at the Ice Spears, intercepting them in mid-air and shattering them.

Mo Fan watched Su Xi’s method closely. It was a neat trick using the Shadow Needles to intercept the incoming projectiles. Mo Fan had never tried it before!

Su Xi’s Shadow Magic was pretty solid. She did not have to construct Star Patterns as she was Casting the Intermediate Spell, it was like she was carrying the Shadow Needles on her. She was able to fire them off simply by waving her hands.

The broken ice fell to the ground with the raindrops. The Fearsome Martial Bears continued to stride across the battlefield while ignoring the spells that happened to be coming their way.

Mo Fan was not sure whether the Fearsome Martial Bear knew it did not have to worry about these petty spells, or if Professor Xylan had asked it to ignore them so she could test her students’ reaction.

Su Xi glanced at Professor Xylan after intercepting the Ice Spears.

Professor Xylan’s eyes remained closed, and she did not comment on Su Xi’s attempt. Her student was a little disappointed.

A dozen rolling boulders appeared out of nowhere to their left, less than a hundred meters away.

The Fearsome Martial Bear kept moving forward as the boulders were approaching. It fixed its gaze ahead without reacting to the boulders.

Based on Mo Fan’s years of experience in preparing for his Math exams, he calculated that the rolling boulders would collide with the Fearsome Martial Bear’s legs in two seconds if both sides maintained their pace.

Professor Xylan’s students were eager to show off their skills. A young woman with a middle-part hairstyle and a high nose stepped forward and Cast the Basic Earth Spell, Earth Wave.

The Earth Wave manipulated the terrain and formed ravines to slow down the rolling boulders.

The Fearsome Martial Bear kept moving forward. The rolling boulders ended up rolling harmlessly past its feet after their speed dropped. It was a close call.

Professor Xylan opened her eyes. “Well done! It’s important to use your brain when using your magic. Magic is like a sword. The higher the level of your magic, the sharper the sword is, but the way you swing your sword will also have different effects!”

Her eyes might be closed, but she was well aware of everything that was going on around her, and had been impressed by how the female student had used her magic.

Karl had used an Advanced Spell to stop two Intermediate Fire Spells.

Su Xi had used an Intermediate Shadow Spell to nullify an Intermediate Ice Spell.

The female student had used a Basic Spell to overcome a spell of a higher level!

It was obvious who was best at using their magic!

Karl did not think his attempt would turn into a negative example, and his face darkened.

Professor Xylan liked to test her students on even the smallest details in the application of magic. She liked smart students who could use their magic wisely. She would compliment them whenever they were able to come up with little tricks to make their magic more efficient. As a result, the compet.i.tion between the students was fierce.

“That carefree Professor is teaching her students a lesson in the middle of a battle.” Zhao Manyan was not fond of how they were treating the operation like an excursion.

“Perhaps she’s confident in her strength. I bet she isn’t that worried about the Venomous Insect Shamans,” Mu Bai deduced.

“What she said is right, too.” Mo Fan agreed with Professor Xylan’s words.

Magic was like a sword if it was used as a weapon. The way one was swinging it was very crucial.

The difference when the person was swinging the sword recklessly and using proper techniques was extremely huge!
