Shang didn't remember the last time he had fought an enemy Mage with an Earth Affinity that wasn't a complete pushover.

'A powerful Early High Mage with an Earth Affinity, huh? I wonder how they fight.'

SHING!

Shang's opponent appeared.

It was a tall man with brown hair and a rough, long beard. He looked a bit like a barbarian.

Shang didn't enter his Colossal Sword State. For now, the Saber State should be enough, and the Colossal Sword State was not as great when it came to dealing with Earth Mages.

The reason was that Refraction and Reflection didn't work that well against Earth Mages.

Additionally, Shang didn't think that it was necessary to enter his Colossal Sword State yet. The Saber State should still be enough.

The jester slowly lifted his hammer and hit the bell.

DING!

Shang immediately unleashed his Shooting Stars and Hidden Suns at the Mage.

When the Mage noticed the assault, his eyes narrowed.

In an instant, he had already created his Mana Shield.

SHING!

He also used a Mana Step immediately to gain some distance from Shang.

When Shang saw that, he blasted forward with an Ice Blast while continuing his assault.

CRK!

At that moment, two huge claws shot out of the earth around the Mage, and they grabbed the Mana Shield.

Then, they moved the Mana Shield to the side, making Shang's attacks miss.

The claws could move through the earth, and they pulled the Mage with them.

Shang got reminded of the first talented Mage he had ever fought back in the first trial. That Mage had been a Lightning Mage, and he had surrounded his Mana Shield with lightning to achieve a similar effect.
