God of Mages: Creating a Mage Scoreboard at the Start - Chapter 22

With the rules in place, everyone was in a heated discussion.

Anyone who was under the 4-star category of mage god could challenge the arena.

There was a special formation in the arena that could suppress a person’s strength. The lowest would be a great mage, and the highest would be a 4-star mage god.

In other words, when a great mage entered the arena, the opposing scholar, Tian’s, strength would naturally be suppressed to the great mage’s level.

And if a 4-star mage stepped onto the arena, then Tian’s level would rapidly rise to the strength of a 4-star mage god.

As for those who exceeded this range, they would not be able to step onto the stage.

This could not help but be astonishing for everyone.

Just the ability to suppress one’s cultivation and raise one’s cultivation strength was not something that an ordinary person could do.

This single rule was akin to a nuclear bomb being thrown into the crowd.

Because the flexibility was too great, great mages, high mages, grand mages, and mage gods could cross several huge levels.

And most importantly, this arena was very fair, almost too fair.

This meant that they were giving a chance to mages with a slightly lower cultivation level.

While simultaneously giving the experts the same chance.

The second rule, however, made everyone feel that the mage god training hall’s host was somewhat presumptuous.

If one defeated Tian, the one who was defending the arena, they would receive a prize.

If one could persist for a long time under Tian’s defense on the arena, they would receive points and prizes.

If one displayed their special abilities in front of others under Tian’s defense on the arena, such as the Heavenly Eye, or Boundless Strength, and those that received Tian’s approval would also receive rewards.

Moreover, there were ranks for them.

Even the worst in rank would receive one chance to deduce themselves.

What did it mean to deduce? To deduce the difficulty of the category you were currently facing.

To deduce your future.

To deduce everything about you.

And this itself was a little too presumptuous.

“Heavens, does the host behind mage god training hall truly think that he’s the Creator? That so-called ‘Tian’ who’s guarding the arena doesn’t even seem worthy. What right does he have to give us a score?

“This is simply humiliating.”

The attackers and defenders of the arenas were supposed to be equal in the first place.

It was as if the person defending the arena was superior to the others.

What right did he have? What was the need of giving them a score?

“The person defending the arena is too arrogant,” said Kylie.

“I’m even more arrogant than him. I’m a mage god, but no one—”

“Ack, ouch! Let go!”

Kylie grabbed onto Lin En’s ear, and Lin En immediately begged for mercy.

“You’re the God of War, you’re the God of war, and I’m a mage god. This should be fine already, right?!”

“Humph, don’t talk nonsense here. There are too many experts.” Kylie lectured, “Those people behind the Golden Board of Heaven and Earth must have been fools to rank you so high.”

“Be careful with your words. Although this is Augustus, Father can’t protect you here,” Kylie said sternly.

The third rule.

That was, only the human-level arenas were opened.

This arena was actually divided into four levels.

Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow.

And now, only the Yellow-level arenas were opened.

The other three arenas were not opened at all. They were prepared for people of a higher level.

As soon as the fourth rule was released, everyone began to curse aloud.

“Oh my god, mages need to fork out magic stones, and warriors need to submit half a kilogram worth of refined iron for forging equipment.”

“Is the hall master broke and crazy? He actually wants us to spend so much money?

“Magic stones. I only have one now, and that’s the magic stone on my staff.”

“Yeah, and refined iron? That kind of thing is very rare.”

However, there were also many people who thought that this was very reasonable.

After all, the reward for defeating the ring master was very generous.

There was also that miraculous deduction. It sounded very awesome.

They did not believe that even if the person guarding the ring was strong, could he even hold on for a period of time while being under the same level?

…

To Lin En, the items in the beginner’s competition were actually trash that could be dispensed with.

However, there was no such thing as free lunch in the world. If food fell from the sky, it would merely breed nothing but laziness among the livings. And this was not a good thing.

In the ancient times, there were many dynasties that provided relief to the people during the disastrous years. However, if they did not provide relief, the world would fall into chaos.

For example, the Yuan Dynasty.

Actually, the emperors of the Yuan Dynasty were all very astute. There were almost no stupid emperors at the time. However, because of the disasters that befall year after year, most of the subjects fell into poverty. In the end, they received relief from the imperial court and stabilized for 80 years. However, 80 years later, the Yuan Dynasty’s national treasury ran dry, yet the great disaster had not passed.

Countless refugees in the world starved to death. And without relief, resentment among the people arised once more, and in the end, the Yuan Dynasty was overthrown.

Therefore, the meat pie that fell from the sky might look delicious, but if one did not pay a certain price for it, there would be problems.

Hence, the announcement of the rules was done.

Tian pulled out his long sword and said, “Who wants to go first?”

At this moment, his aura had changed and became incomparably fierce.

His attitude was even more arrogant to the extreme.

It was as if whoever that came up would die.

When he came here, Lin En had given him an order. If no one came up to challenge him, then he was not allowed to go back.

However, even with his current demeanor, no one came up to challenge him.

Most of the people were looking at each other in dismay, unwilling to be the first to go up. They all wanted other challengers to go ahead before them.

Meanwhile, Tian was nothing but anxious.

He could not help but curse out, “Are all of you trash?”

“Weren’t you people yelling around just now to challenge the hall master’s authority? Why have you all become mute now?”

“Cowards.”

“Hmph, how arrogant! I’ll go up and give him a whirl.”

Kylie could not help but say.

Lin En hurriedly pulled her back and said, “My Little Madam, I think that guy is at least at the God of War level. You’ll be courting death by going up.”

“Let go of me. That arena will suppress our levels anyway. I’m a great swordmaster now. Why can’t I go up?”

Kylie wanted to break free from Lin En, but she suddenly realized that the strength coming from Lin En’s hand was very powerful.

She was shocked and wondered, ‘When did this guy become so powerful?’

After Tian’s incessant provocation, the crowd exploded, beginning to take effect.

The corners of Tian’s mouth curled up slightly as he said, “What a bunch of trash who only knows how to make a ruckus…”

He was about to continue cursing when a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

“State your name,” said Tian.

“My name is noble so listen carefully.”

“The name is Gauss.”

Once his name was mentioned, the crowd started discussing with one another.

“Gauss from Felan Magic Academy?”

“Felan Academy? That’s a huge magic academy.”

“That’s true! It’s rumored that his sound wave magic is very powerful.

“It could even shake one’s souls.”

“The biggest characteristic of sound wave magic is that it’s almost everywhere, just like light magic and dark magic. Moreover, its attack power is even stronger.”

“If they’re within the same level, it’s almost invincible. This time, that madman on the stage would surely get it.”

As soon as Gauss stepped onto the stage, he felt that his level had not changed.

And he could clearly sense that Tian, the defender on the opposite side, had also been suppressed to the same level as he was.

However, Tian coldly stretched out his hand and said, “You’re a mage, so please hand over the magic stone.”

Gauss did not hesitate. Since he had stepped onto the stage, he knew the rules.

He took out a shiny magic stone from his pocket and chanted something in his heart.

Buzz!

The magic stone shot toward the defender like an arrow.
