Sword God in a World of Magic

BANG!

The Mana Shield of Shang's opponent broke, and his eyes turned confused.

Shang took a deep breath.

'This wouldn't have been so easy if I hadn't fought that shitty peacock in the trial. Luckily, I know how to counter this stuff now,' he thought.

The strongest Early Ancestral Mage of the Judgment Palace was now a confused birdwatcher.

Earlier, the Mage King had sent in that particular Ancestral Mage with fury and frustration.

Sending him in had essentially meant going all in.

They had already lost two Mages with fourfold Spirit Senses, and losing this guy on top of that would be horrible for the Judgment Palace.

And now, that person was a confused birdwatcher like all of Shang's previous opponents.

Outside, the Mage King and the volunteers behind her looked with gritted teeth at the barrier.

Their champion couldn't possibly lose!

He had to win!

Meanwhile, Shang just looked at the birdwatcher with his Spirit Sense.

'His aura is intense,' he thought.

Since the man wasn't using any Magic anymore, it was easy for Shang to feel the true power of his aura.

'He's probably one of the strongest Mages they have.'

'Getting three people with fourfold Spirit Senses is already more than I expected.'

'I don't think they will send a fourth one.'

'Additionally, they will most likely not believe me anymore.'

'I guess it's time for phase two of the Lightning Emperor's plan,' Shang thought as he slowly stood up from his mountain.

'Time to become famous.'

Suddenly, Shang's perception left the world as his mind stretched into the darkest void imaginable.
