Sword God in a World of Magic

The Affinity wheel began to spin, but Shang didn't pay any attention to it.

Just like with the previous categories, the first opponents wouldn't be an issue.

"Level one: Weak Initial True Mage."

After some seconds, Shang's opponent arrived.

It was a beautiful girl with ocean-blue hair.

Shang could already tell that she was a Water Mage.

The jester lifted his hammer and struck the bell.

DING!

The girl opened her eyes and calmly looked at Shang.

However, her expression immediately turned to horror when she noticed that Shang was already beside her.

In her shock, she couldn't react.

BANG!

She was quickly bisected by Shang's sword, and he absorbed some life energy from her corpse.

The cheering returned.

Shang looked at the vanishing corpse without any emotions inside his eyes.

The wheel returned, and Shang waited for his next opponent.

"Level two: Average Initial True Mage."

His next opponent appeared, but Shang didn't really pay any attention to them.

DING!

When the bell struck, Shang charged forward again.

That's when Shang saw that his new opponent was a young man with red hair, wearing red robes.

The Mage immediately activated his Mana Shield.

BANG!

Shang's sword hit the Mana Shield, and the Mage was thrown into the distance by Shang's attack.

The Mage's eyes widened in shock.

That attack consumed over 50% of his Mana!

He quickly summoned his Focus and prepared two Spells.

However, before he could finish the Spells, Shang appeared before him again.

BOOOM!

The Mage was flung into the distance again, his Mana Shield broken.

The Spell the Mage had been preparing fizzled out since he was out of Mana now.

Shang immediately appeared in front of him again with his sword.
