The Sorcery Academy: I am Invincible After Getting Treasure Chests Everyday - Chapter 12
Everyone in the audience suddenly realized that Linley had been using spiritual magic all along. It was no wonder those people suddenly lost their minds.
However, although spiritual magic was powerful, it was very only in certain situations where the opponents were unprepared. Once the opponent had protective measures in place, it was almost useless.
This was also one of the reasons why very few people chose to be spiritual magic sorcerers.
This applied to the Reaper’s Smile as well. Now that the opponent knew of the existence of spiritual magic spells and had with him a magic talisman, the effectiveness of his technique wasn’t as great as before although he was still able to use it.
At most, it could only slow the opponent down a little, making it pretty useless.
Andrew wasn’t just showing off his talisman. The moment he took out the talisman, he had already activated it using his magic. This was his tactic.

After he revealed the opponent’s magic spell, he would immediately attack before the opponent could react, catching him off guard.
If the opponent he was facing was a sorcerer with little experience, he might have already won the battle.
However, Linley didn’t panic. This wasn’t his only technique. He had been using it only because it was very useful and required the least effort.

However, Andrew’s ability to use magic was not to be underestimated. He quickly cast a spell, creating a spike that emerged from the surrounding ground.
This was an earth magic, Earth Splitting Spike!
The speed of earth magic was not fast compared to other magic, but its range was very large.
……
Andrew was good at strategizing. This spell was merely part of his plan.
“Earthen Wall!”
This spell would change the original appearance of the ground, making earth walls rise up to force the opponent to move.
Because the terrain had changed, the originally flat arena had become very steep.
Although Linley Bart had acquired quite a few treasure chests over the past few days, he didn’t have an easy way to deal with earth magic.
He could only rely on some basic small spells to avoid attacks, and the attacking spells he cast would be blocked by the earthen wall.
Andrew was an earth-type sorcerer. He was best at both offense and defense. He would exhaust his opponent before finding an opportunity to defeat his opponent.
No matter what level of sorcerers he faced, he always managed to find their flaws.
Andrew had a calm personality. He was not in a hurry to end off his opponent in one move. Instead, he was dragging out the match, making his opponent more anxious before making mistakes.
The magic that Linley Bart had mastered did not have much of an effect on Andrew. He could cast spells in an instant, but the magic spells that he had mastered did not have much effect on the earth magic Andrew was using.
He had the Fire Tongue skill and the Flaming Storm skill, but earth magic countered fire magic. His fire magic did not have much impact on earth magic.
Andrew wasn’t an ordinary sorcerer. If Linley Bart were to rashly use magic, he would definitely be able to find a flaw and opportunity to end the match.
This was the most powerful opponent Linley had ever encountered. He was far more powerful than Olin and Otto.
This was a true sorcerer.
Andrew was also very experienced in fighting. He was very patient. If he kept delaying, he might win.
But just then, Linley Bart suddenly discovered a treasure chest on the dueling arena. This treasure chest had randomly appeared in the middle of the arena.
“Bronze Treasure Chest discovered!” The system’s voice sounded.
Linley Bart knew that the only way for him to reverse the current situation was to open this treasure chest.

It did not matter what was inside the treasure chest! This was his only chance of gaining an opportunity to win!
He began to run recklessly towards the center of the arena.
The audience realized that Linley Bart didn’t plan to continue fleeing. Instead, he had ran in Andrew’s direction.
“Is he going to attack? Why is he running there? Isn’t that a trap?”
“Linley Bart is getting impatient!”
“Hai, there’s nothing he can do even if continues fleeing. If this drags on, he will also lose!”
In the eyes of the others, Linley Bart’s actions were extremely foolish. He no longer bothered to dodge and was instead running directly towards the center of the spike trap. Wasn’t this as good as stepping into a spell?
“I thought you would be able to hold on a bit longer.” Andrew, seeing Linley Bart charging towards him, revealed a smile. “You’ve already lost!”
Andrew pressed down with his palm, activating even more magic. All of the spikes on the ground were revealed as they stabbed towards Linley!
This was his final attack. It was time to end this battle.
“Congratulations to the host for successfully opening a Bronze Treasure Chest and obtaining the magic skill [Earth Disintegration]!”

Earth Disintegration! Linley Bart was overjoyed. The system was simply too good to him!
The moment he opened the treasure chest, he had already completely learned this spell.
There was no need to process the information. Opening the treasure chest meant that he had mastered the spell!
This was the superpower of the system!
Even though the spikes were about to reach Linley, he wasn’t worried at all. This was because he had another ability, Instant Casting.
No matter what kind of magic it was, it could be used instantly in his hands.
“Earth Disintegration!” Linley Bart merely stretched out a single finger.
When those spikes touched Linley’s body, they instantly stopped attacking. It was as though the waves of the sea had been forcibly halted, unable to advance any further.
All of the attacks were blocked by Linley’s fingers, and the earthen walls that followed were instantly destroyed.
At a speed visible to the naked eye, the earthen walls turned into sediments.
“Impossible! This is impossible!” Andrew’s mouth was wide open. He could not believe what was happening.
He was already confident of his victory. He was about to win! Soon, he would be an official member of the team and represent the school to participate in the Five Great Sorcery Academy Competition!
Andrew thought that he would defeat everyone in the internal academy competition and win glory.
But now, the reality was that all of this had been shattered, just like his magic.
Andrew’s eyes widened. His magic was useless at this moment.
He didn’t know what Linley had done, but he could sense that Linley was far, far more powerful!
Even the teachers in the spectator stands, including the principal, the vice-principal, and the dean, stood up and watched the comeback on the arena.
No one expected that Andrew who was about to win…
Had lost.
