Chapter 874: Heart of the Eldium Tree
Chapter 874: Heart of the Eldium Tree
From MC's perspective:
Gallery room,
Suddenly, something attracts everyone's attention and the director and several managers are walking to the platform.
Their arrival brings the loudest cheers from the stands. The crowd realizes that the duel is about to start once their speech is over.
The director of the duel arena appears to be a middle aged man over forty. But his real age is triple that. Because of the high ranking wizard level. He was able to maintain a somewhat young appearance.
The rest of them are arena managers responsible for handling everything here.
"I welcome you all to the Wizard Heart Competition," The Director said in a low tone. But his soothing voice reaches everyone's ears.
The next second, the noise dies down. From A Block to C Block everyone starts listening to him carefully.
Seeing that reaction the director was pleased.
So he continued to speak.
"For this competition, the 3 academies are going to participate in level-5 and level-6 wizards category."
"There are 30 Wizards in each category. In the 1st stage, there will be 15 matches. The winners will follow the 2nd stage. "
"In the 2nd stage, one of the winners will get a free pass to the next stage. Which will be selected randomly. Then the remaining 7 winners will be selected from the 7 matches."
"In the 3rd stage, 8 wizards will participate. The top 4 will be selected from the 4 matches"
"In the 4th stage, 4 wizards will participate. The top 2 match will be selected from the 2 matches.""
"The 5th stage will be the final stage where the winner of the competition will be decided in each category."
The voice of the director reached everyone's ears. Including the academy people sitting inside the gallery rooms.
There is one gallery room in each of the blocks. So there is no interaction between them.
But all of their faces turned solemn.
Cheers!
At the same time, the crowd started cheering. The completion rules are simple and easy to understand. In this way, the duel can be concluded early.
The Director gave some time for the information to soak. Exactly after 5 minutes he opened his mouth to say further.
"Now that I have told you the rules of the competition. It's time to explain the prizes," He said with a smile.
Which again brought a loud cheer from the stands. Ever since the competition was announced. There was a lot of speculation around the prize.
It must be something crazy that the academy wizards don't want to let go off. Not only the academy wizards, even the public became interested as well.
"After our discussion with vice deans of all the 3 academies. We decided to award the winner and the runner up."
"For the level-5 category, the 1st prize is Heart of 6th order Eldium Tree!"
Gasp!
A loud exclamation sounded everywhere. Especially inside the gallery rooms. Most of the public are not aware. But the academy people are clear. They know what it is.
Inside the A Block Gallery room:
"Heart of Eldium Tree!" The wizards inside the room exclaimed in surprise. Including the level-6 wizards are shocked as well.
"Ha...Ha...Ha....."
"Fortunately, this treasure suits everyone regardless of their awakened magic," Mike said with a laugh.
"Yes, it's worth to participate in this competition"
"Heart of Eldium Tree can skip the time of mana core progression."
"But it's 6th order heart. We can only use it in level-6 stages."
"Yeah, one heart fruit is enough to develop 50% of the mana core."
On the other hand, I hear the conversations around me. My heart couldn't help but to skip a beat. This Heart of Eldium Tree is extremely useful to me right now.
My mana core progression is lagging behind. If I get it, then I don't have to worry about mana core. It will touch the limit.
I can spend the rest of the time understanding the Gravity Law Power.
After calming down my heart. I looked at the reaction of the level-6 wizards. Especially seeing the reaction of Stella Glover. Her eyes are shining with bright light.
If they consume this Heart, they can become an Elder level Wizard sooner.
"I will get the Heart for sure," Mike Curtis said. Hearing that everyone turned towards him. In the level-5 category, he can say it because of his strength.
No one doubts it. On the other hand, I sneered in my heart. Earlier, I used to be low key. But this time around, I don't plan on being low key.
I have to get this heart. I have read about this mysterious 6th order monster before. It's a monster of a plant and tree type.
The core of the monster is the amazing alchemy of nature. It doesn't reject other magic. One who consumes it will have his mana core develop to 50%.
The advantages not only depend on the people. The growth of mana core will bring the growth of the attributes as well.
I guess it's the relics for Wizards who have awakened nature plant and tree type magic. The image of Carolina comes to mind.
If it was 5th order Heart, I wouldn't mind giving it to her.
But this 6th order Heart is no use to her right now.
Similarly,
The wizards in the other 2 gallery rooms were shocked as well. The 1st prize is no joke. Then everyone wants to hear about the runner up prize as well.
So everyone turned towards the duel arena, waiting for the Director to announce it.
In the duel area, the Director smiled. He liked the response. The 1st prize is something that was approved by the vice deans of all the 3 academies.
Then he decided to tell the runner up prize.
"The prize for the runner up is a special key to enter the ruins of ancient battlefield #47 jointly controlled by the 3 academies."
"Only a level-5 wizard can enter that ancient battlefield #47," He said with a smile. This is the 2nd best reward. The ancient battlefield #47 is a special one. Not anyone can enter.
Even in all the 3 academies, it requires enormous contribution points. For wizards it might take one or two years to earn the contribution points.
