Sword God in a World of Magic

Five and a half hours later, Shang summoned his Mana Shield again and killed his opponent with a fiery explosion.

The barrier became transparent again, and Shang waited for his next opponent.

When the Mage King saw that Shang was still alive, she narrowed her eyes.

"Quite resilient," she muttered.

She looked at the people behind her. "Who's next?"

Three people looked at each other.

All three of them wanted to go next.

Based on what the Mage King had said, their opponent was very likely an extremely powerful Ancestral Mage with a threefold Spirit Sense. He was probably someone that barely failed to become a Cloud.

Nevertheless, there was still a very noticeable difference between someone like that and a Cloud.

All three were at the very peak of Mages with a threefold Spirit Sense.

At such a level, the strengths and weaknesses of fighting styles and Affinities played a major role.

They still weren't sure how Shang fought, but at least one of them should have a fighting style that would counter Shang's fighting style.

So, even if one or two of them died, at least one of them should win.

Naturally, all of them believed that they were the one.

"You go," the Mage King said to one of them.

It was a guy with grey hair and grey eyes. The world around him seemed to flow into him, which showed that he had a Gravity Affinity.

The guy nodded and walked forward.

'The last two had Ice and Fire as Affinities, which means that he doesn't care about this kind of fighting style,' the Mage King thought. 'Maybe we can get him with a Gravity Affinity?'

A moment later, the Mage King summoned another contract. "Same contract as the last one."

The guy read through the contract.

He wasn't the biggest fan of it, but he still signed it.

A moment later, he took to the sky and shot into the barrier, which clouded over again.
