Aurora didn't understand what "mugwort" meant.
Was that the name of some magic potion?
If she lost, would she have to consume that potion called mugwort?
However, the fact that the fire magic she was so proud of had absolutely no effect on Ye Chuan was completely unacceptable to a genius like Aurora. This was especially true now, as she was in a state of magical outburst, making her rationality somewhat clouded by impulse.
"I bet you used your spatial magic to teleport my flames away."
Ye Chuan shrugged his shoulders.
Aurora was convinced her guess was right. The staff in her hand, inlaid with a crimson flame magic crystal, suddenly erupted with a blinding red light. The engraved patterns on the staff seemed to come alive, flowing with scalding magical energy.
Her red lips parted and closed rapidly. The obscure magical incantations transformed into golden runes, swirling and dancing around her like burning butterflies.
"A Tier 6 spell?!" Seeing this, Kaiaolen, who was also watching the battle from the stands, initially wanted to step in and stop it. After all, the destruction caused by a Tier 6 spell was no joke; if cast at full power, it could even affect the entire city of Milar!
At this moment, Kaiaolen had already made up his mind to stop the duel. But just as he stood up, he noticed that Ye Chuan's expression remained as calm and breezy as ever, as if he didn't care about the Tier 6 spell at all.
"..." A sense of absurdity rose in Kaiaolen's heart.
Could it be that this guy, Xi Xi, had a strength far beyond Tier 5?
Based on Kaiaolen's understanding of Ye Chuan, this guy was definitely not the type to put himself at a disadvantage.
One must know that being able to teach the adorable Elara was something any normal person would gladly do as a favor to him. Yet, this guy insisted on collecting tuition fees and even showed disdain for his lovely granddaughter.
"..." Thinking of this, Kaiaolen sat back down. He reached out his hand and directly activated the barrier.
A translucent, eggshell-like dome appeared, enveloping the entire dueling arena. Aurora, noticing this, sneered and looked at Ye Chuan.
"The barrier is up. It seems Grandpa Kaiaolen has agreed to let me use this spell."
"Is it that impressive?" Ye Chuan looked up at the flames condensing from the magic circle. It was barely passable, only at the level of Spirit Manifestation.
"Just average."
Seeing that Ye Chuan remained unmoved and even shook his head speechlessly, Aurora simply hardened her heart.
"Don't blame me if you get seriously injured! Pay the price for your contempt!"
"Tier 6 Magic, Pyroblast Heavenly Star!"
The moment the incantation ended, all the fiery runes around Aurora shot into the sky, merging with the massive magic circle forming above.
The magic circle was a full hundred meters in diameter. The runes burned with crimson-gold flames, dyeing the entire sky into a sea of fire. The surrounding air was instantly incinerated, forming a distorted vortex of heatwaves, and even the light refracted and warped in the extreme temperatures.
Countless tiny fiery meteors poured out from the magic circle, converging into a scorching fireball over a hundred meters in diameter. Magma-like patterns rolled across the fireball's surface, while its core flickered with a dark purple light of destruction.
The berserk fire-elemental magic made the earth tremble slightly, and the observing cultivators could even feel a burning, stinging sensation on their skin!
"I'll give you one last chance!" Aurora panted heavily. The overexertion of her magic made her face pale, but she still stared dead at Ye Chuan.
"Heh." Hearing Aurora's voice, Ye Chuan suddenly chuckled. In the next second, he simply snapped his fingers. An invisible magical energy was released, and Aurora's expression instantly froze in shock.
What's going on...
The magic... I can't feel my own magic anymore?
Aurora immediately turned her head to look at her magic circle, only to notice that the white-blue magical structural formula instantly turned crimson, slipping out of her control in a split second!
This is...
A reversal formula.
"Y-you controlled my magic?!" Aurora's voice was filled with disbelief!
It wasn't just Aurora; the people in the stands were also somewhat dumbfounded. The guards were still relatively composed, but the mages had already stood up in shock, pointing at the sky with trembling voices:
"It's a reversal formula! He actually used a reversal formula to seize control of a Tier 6 spell!"
A reversal formula was a special application of magic that could forcibly invade an opponent's magical structural formula and seize control of their spell.
Simply put, the cast spell was hijacked by the opponent.
And this situation usually only occurred when a high-tier mage suppressed a low-tier mage. One's understanding of the magic and level of magical power had to far exceed the opponent's to achieve this.
"Isn't controlling your magic just a piece of cake?" With a thought from Ye Chuan, the massive, oppressive fireball floated right above his head. With just a wave of his hand, this colossal fireball would smash right into Aurora.
"Impossible! Are you a Tier 7 Grand Mage?!"
"Or is this some weird spatial magic?!"
Aurora simply couldn't accept this.
The occurrence of this scene meant that Ye Chuan could have instantly defeated her from the start, but instead chose this method to completely crush her confidence.
It was simply like an old man toying with a mischievous child.
"Forcibly casting a Tier 6 spell, your mana must be completely drained by now." Ye Chuan wagged his finger, and the heavenly star in the sky teetered as its aura of destruction locked onto Aurora.
"Concede and accept the mugwort, or... take this heavenly star head-on?"
"I, I..." Aurora's mind was completely blank at this moment.
Forcibly casting a Tier 6 spell with the strength of a Tier 5 mage was Aurora's foundation and pride. But seeing her ultimate move hijacked by Ye Chuan's reversal formula and now threatening her own life...
It made Aurora feel a sense of betrayal.
"I, I..."
"Hmm?"
"I won't..."
"In that case." Ye Chuan twitched his finger, and the aura of the heavenly star completely locked onto Aurora.
Ultimately, her desire to survive overwhelmed her bottom line and pride.
"I-I concede! I accept the mugwort!" Aurora slumped to the ground, her staff clattering as it fell. Her crimson-gold ponytail lost its luster, drooping over her shoulder.
She could clearly feel that the Pyroblast Heavenly Star was now like a sharp sword hanging over her head. With just a single thought from Ye Chuan, she would be blasted into ashes by her own magic.
Ye Chuan curled his fingertips, and the Pyroblast Heavenly Star in the sky instantly shrank, turning into a streak of crimson-gold magical light. He casually crushed it, letting it dissipate into the air.
The barrier slowly dissipated, and the sunlight poured down once again. The scorching heat in the dueling arena gradually faded, leaving only a floor covered in scorched marks and Aurora's miserable figure slumped on the ground.
The stands were dead silent; everyone was still immersed in the shock of what had just happened.
"Oh my god..."
"Is this real? That's Lady Aurora, and she actually lost in the field of magic."
"What is there to say? A reversal formula means her magical level was completely crushed."
