Chapter 131: Choosing A Queen, Abandoning One’s Merits And Making Much of Their Shortcomings

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

To ordinary people, magic was just like tricks, yet also different from them. At the same time, while they were cool and dazzling, they also carried fearsome destructiveness.

However, all Magicians were well aware that magic actually wasn’t that amazing—there was a specific and particular way to cast every spell.

How to chant the spell incantation;

How much magic elements they must gather;

How the magic elements should be arranged;

All these aspects had their own specific patterns and rules. Making a mistake in any of them would cause the spellcasting to fail.

What this meant was that Fireball Technique had its own way of arranging magic elements while the Fire Lotus Judgment also had its own set of spellcasting steps. Once they had been cast, the spells would be set in stone, and there wouldn’t be any way to alter them anymore.

There was no way it could be Fireball Technique one moment, yet morph into Fire Lotus Judgment the next. If anyone could achieve something like that, then sorry, but that would definitely be tricks meant to deceive one and not strict, rigorous magic!

This was the most basic piece of general knowledge in magic and was also something acknowledged among all Magicians.

Yet under the watchful eyes of the public, Meng Lei had broken this very same piece of general knowledge in magic.

“Fireball Technique has turned into Fire Lotus Judgment?”

“A first-grade spell has turned into a ninth-grade spell?”

“Oh my dragon god! Am I seeing things?”

A huge uproar went through the whole arena. Some people’s mouths were wide agape, some were rubbing their eyes hard, and some had almost jumped out of their seats...

Everyone in the venue was astounded by what they had seen!

In the private room, King Flit the 66th, Queen Diana, President Fred, the blond elderly man, as well as the other academy presidents’ jaws had also dropped.

For others, their astoundment arose from the fact that they didn’t understand what had happened. In their case, however, it was because they understood the inner workings that they found it inconceivable.

Just like how there was no way a rock could turn into gold for no reason, it was impossible for the Fireball Technique that had already been cast to morph into Fire Lotus Judgment for no reason!.

However, this didn’t mean that it was unachievable.

It was actually possible for rocks to turn into gold.

Similarly, the Fireball Technique could also morph into Fire Lotus Judgment!.

By using the laws of nature, one could achieve this!

And it was precisely because they knew that this was achievable through the laws of nature that they found it so shocking and horrifying.

“President Fred, when did that little fellow comprehend the laws of nature?”

Flit the 66th looked at President Fred with astonishment in his eyes. He was a Fire Colossal Dragon, and his main field of cultivation was fire-elemental laws of nature. Thus, he had the strongest right to speak among everyone present.

For Fireball Technique to morph into Fire Lotus Judgment, there were definitely fire-elemental laws of nature involved here. Although the depth of his technique was very shallow and had touched only the tip of the iceberg that was fire-elemental laws of nature, there was no denying that it was indeed the laws of nature. Once laws of nature came into play, the result was a difference between heaven and earth!

“Your Majesty, to be honest, I don’t know, either!”

With a shake of his head, President Fred gave him a wry smile and replied, “I’ve always thought that he was just a Ninth-Grade Great Magician. I’ve never once imagined that he could comprehend laws of nature. He’s so young, after all!”

Flit the 66th nodded slowly and said, “Indeed. He’s certainly too young. Attaining the realm of a Ninth-Grade Great Magician at 16 years of age is already astounding enough, let alone comprehend the laws of nature?”

All the academy presidents nodded one after another with complex looks on their faces.

16 years old!

What a young and tender age!

At 16 years old, most people had only just enrolled in school and were in the midst of learning their magic basics. As for comprehending laws of nature... That was a notion too far away from them.

“He has already comprehended the laws of nature!”

A flash went past Flit the 66th’s eyes, and he said, “It’s only a matter of time until that little fellow advances to Saint Domain!”
