At this moment, Cleveland was savoring fine wine at a table inside, and upon seeing him enter, he enthusiastically called him over.
"Come, come, come, Daniel! Let me introduce you to someone. This is Old York, the owner of Old York Inn, and also a friend of our mentor. He's an old lecher who doesn't know his place."
Old York appeared to be in his sixties, sporting a gray goatee that was stained with wine, dripping down from his beard. He wore a tattered Wizard Robe and had a lecherous glint in his eyes, looking quite sleazy.
Hearing Cleveland's teasing, Old York didn't mind and chuckled lewdly. "Don't listen to him. How am I being disrespectful? You're Richard's new apprentice, right? You seem quite promising and to my liking."
Daniel responded softly. He had just encountered Franklin and was not in the mood for jokes. Cleveland noticed his mood and asked curiously.
"Junior, what's wrong? You don't look happy."
"Don't mention it. On my way here, I ran into Franklin and five other Apprentice Leaders from the Wizard Towers. They are all participating in this Talent Wizard Championship. I'm worried about how to face them."
Old York waved his hand dismissively. "So what if there are six Apprentice Leaders? They're just Wizard Apprentices. Even if they all become Formal Wizards, I could crush them with a single finger. Why bother worrying?"
Daniel...
You might be able to crush them with a finger, but to me, Franklin is an insurmountable mountain. Despite having gained the upper hand against him twice, it was merely coincidence.
The first time was just Franklin being careless; he discovered the weakness of the Spatial Barrier. The second time was aided by the Wizard Tower's capabilities; he merely threw him out without truly defeating him.
If I really encounter him this time, I don't even know what to do.
Cleveland shot Old York a glare and thought for a moment. "So what? If you really meet him, just do your best. Losing to him isn't shameful."
Daniel could only nod helplessly and then carefully inquired about the process of participating in the Talent Wizard Championship.
When he learned that the first round would be an elimination match where all registered Wizard Apprentices would gather together for chaotic battles to eliminate participants before the official competition began, his expression turned strange.
Moreover, to prevent both sides from forming agreements to defend together without attacking each other or teaming up with familiar faces to eliminate those who shouldn't be eliminated, the organizers would investigate all contestants' apprenticeship experiences and pair those with conflicts against each other.
Daniel's face suddenly became very peculiar; this meant that there was a high possibility he would encounter the six Apprentice Leaders during the elimination round.
In that case, it would truly be a bloody battle. The opponent would risk elimination just to drive him out.
If he encountered someone else, it might be better, but facing Franklin, whether he could escape was another matter entirely.
Daniel looked at Franklin, who was smiling in front of him and acting as if he was in a great mood, and felt a deep sense of frustration.
He had been in Aviles City for a month, and all the Wizard Apprentices participating in the Talent Wizard Championship had arrived. He received notification that the first elimination match would take place in three days.
When all the apprentices gathered together, they were teleported to this vast plain. Over 5,000 contestants were evenly distributed here for the elimination match. Only when there were 1,400 contestants left would they be considered to have passed.
After being teleported over, the first person he saw was Franklin.
Franklin smiled and greeted Daniel, "Hi, Daniel! Long time no see. How have you been? This time I will definitely treat you well."
Daniel felt a bitter taste in his heart. Treat him well? It was more likely that he would be treated to hell.
He looked around and noticed that all the Wizard Apprentices were evenly spread across the plain. In the initial phase, it would be impossible to leverage anyone's strength; it seemed he needed to find a way to escape to a more populated area.
A voice from above announced, "All contestants listen up! The competition will officially begin in ten seconds. Welcome everyone to fight fiercely, eliminate the weak around you, and leave only the strong. I will announce the end of the competition when it’s over. 10, 9, 8, 7,... 1, 0, start!"
Before the words had even finished echoing, numerous Wizard Apprentices erupted with intense magical fluctuations, each casting their spells. Daniel was no exception; he launched a Devil's Skull towards Franklin.
This time it wasn't in the confined space of the Wizard Tower. Franklin quickly retreated, trying to create distance and shake off the Devil's Skull. Unfortunately, it was futile; the Devil's Skull moved swiftly and struck him directly. The Spatial Barrier had no effect at all as he instantly fell victim to Fate's Abandonment Great Curse.
Taking advantage of this moment, Daniel turned and ran. He had no intention of confronting Franklin head-on; he had already planned to mix things up with a few others who were fighting nearby. At least he could stir the waters and get them involved in dealing with Franklin together.
The two chased and fled until they reached those engaged in combat.
The fighters immediately halted their skirmish and warily watched the two approaching them from both sides.
Daniel shouted at them, "Hey guys! Let's team up and make sure we take him down!"
Such a simple attempt at sowing discord was not believed by anyone; however...
Franklin had originally been pursuing Daniel using Ice Spike Technique. Although his Spatial System magic was powerful, it consumed a massive amount of magical energy. Who knew how long this elimination match would last? It was better to conserve some energy.
To save magic power, he used the simplest Ice Spike Technique among ice-based spells.
Seeing Daniel disregard danger and approach a few people, he was afraid of causing misunderstandings, so he prepared to stop his magic and force Daniel to leave them.
Unexpectedly, at that moment, he suddenly stumbled, and the Ice Spike Technique he had prepared was launched, hitting one of the opponents and causing their protective shield to shake violently, nearly shattering.
Daniel seized the opportunity and shouted, "Great! Brother, let's strike together and take this one down first."
With magic surging through him, the Fireball Spell also struck the opponent.
Seeing this, the others no longer hesitated and unleashed all their magic towards Franklin.
There was no choice; after all, Franklin exuded an overwhelming presence. Even if he wasn't a super powerhouse with Mental Power reaching a hundred points, he was still a strong individual with ninety-eight or ninety-nine points.
An Ice Spike Technique nearly overwhelmed someone, demonstrating his formidable strength. Even if they all worked together, they might not be able to defeat him.
As for Daniel, judging by the power of his magic, his Mental Power hadn't reached ninety points yet, making him relatively weaker; at most, he could only spare a little consciousness to pay attention.
Franklin wanted to explain, but there was no time for explanations as he was quickly engulfed by countless spells.
