Inside the examination venue, Hilia and Shaline exchanged glances, waiting for the instructor to announce the start.
Both sides had already summoned their magic puppets.
Hilia watched her silent classmate seriously.
Although the opponent only advanced to Tier Three days before the finals, reaching Tier Three in the second grade is a feat of a prodigy; geniuses always have hidden tricks up their sleeves, so one must be cautious.
Shaline was also watching her, silent, with her magic puppet standing by, holding a magic staff, ready to start.
On one side, the instructor saw that both were prepared, then raised his hand.
"3, 2, 1, start."
As the start was announced, a cold gleam flashed in Shaline's eyes. She raised her hand, and her puppet's arm followed suit. It was as if the sound of the sea wave came, and everything around appeared to be submerged by seawater.
"Is it Water Element?"
