Chapter 173: Fighting Lia Scarlet

The first thing Leo did was protect himself with a mana barrier, as he was sure that Lia was going to use her gravity magic to try and crush him.

As for Lia, she did just as Leo had predicted, casting the Tier 4 magic spell 'Gravity Manipulation' right from the beginning, which allowed her to increase the gravity around Leo by many folds.

However, she wasn't done yet.

"Gravity Well."

Not only did she increase the gravity around him, she's actively trying to crush him with a second spell.

"H-He didn't fall! He's actually resisting Lia Scarlet's gravity magic!" The audience overflowed with excitement when they saw this because they were worried that Leo couldn't handle Lia's magic and lose to her like the other victims, as that would make for a boring match.

However, this didn't mean that Leo wasn't struggling, because he was, and he could barely stand still with this immense pressure bearing down on him.

'Flame Wall!'

Leo pointed his wand at Lia with much difficulty before casting Fire Wall and obstructing her view, which also disrupted her spell.

Once the pressure on him was gone, Leo immediately began bombarding Lia with Fire Blasts.

Suddenly, a massive hole opened up in the Flame Wall, and Leo could see a black ball coming from inside the Flame Wall.

"Gravity Ball." Lia mumbled, releasing a Tier 5 magic spell.

This black ball functioned almost like a black hole as it absorbed all of Leo's flames.

Seeing this, Leo dodged it using Flame Dash, then he gritted his teeth and began casting a Tier 5 spell for the first time in this tournament.

After spending a few seconds gathering his mana, Leo released it.

'Flame Tempest!'

A tornado made out of pure flames materialized on the stage before confronting the Gravity Ball.

The Gravity Ball absorbed the flames from the Flame Tempest, but it stopped halfway, as it had reached its capacity and couldn't absorb anymore.

When this happened, the Gravity Ball simply disappeared into thin air.

The audience jumped out of their seats when they saw this.

"Tier 5 magic spell?! That bastard Leo was still hiding some of his strength?!" Kevin was utterly astonished.

"This Leo… What are the chances of him knowing a Tier 6 magic spell as well?" The representative from the Thorns Family questioned out loud.

"There's no way. Learning a Tier 5 magic spell in a month is already a miracle, not to mention his other spells," said the representative from the Tempest Family.

"Even if he can use a Tier 6 spell, he won't be able to defeat our Scarlet Eyes." The representative from the Scarlet Family said with a confident smile on his face.

Meanwhile, after casting Flame Tempest, Leo took a moment to multicast several more Flame Tempests.

A few seconds later, four fiery tornados appeared on the stage.

Lia's eyes widened slightly, as she was impressed by his prowess.

And if someone like Lia was impressed, one can already imagine the audiences' reaction.

'Void Step.'

Lia used dark magic to avoid the Flame Tempests.

'Damn it…' Leo cursed inwardly when he saw Lia using dark magic.

'If only I could use my dark magic as well…' he sighed.

After dodging his Flame Tempests, Lia started using dark magic instead of gravity magic, almost as though she was provoking him, as she knew that he also had dark magic affinity.

Many Void Spears later, Lia returned to using gravity magic.

"It's about time we end this, Leon." Lia suddenly said to him.

"After today, you'll be mine."

Leo shuddered when he saw the slight grin on her face.

"Gravity Manipulation." Lia used her Tier 4 magic again, but this time, it had the opposite effect.

Instead of pressuring Leo, it actually made him weightless.

And before Leo could react, Lia released another spell.

"Reverse Gravity Well."

Just as its name suggested, it did the opposite of Gravity Well, so instead of pressing him down, it pulled him up, and paired with Gravity Manipulation, she sent Leo flying straight into the sky.

"Whoa!" Leo was taken aback by this situation, and he hoped that she wouldn't throw him off the stage like this.

"Lilith! Is there anything I can do about this?!" He decided to ask for her advice as he continued to levitate higher into the sky.

"Yes. You can brace yourself," she said.

"What kind of advice is that?!" He exclaimed.

Fortunately for Leo, Lia had no intention of throwing him off the stage, as she didn't want that kind of victory.

Unfortunately for him, what she had planned was much worse than being sent off the stage.

"Gravity Hell." Lia muttered in a cold voice.

Leo, who was about three hundred meters in the air, suddenly felt as though a mountain had fallen on top of him, causing him to fall back down to the ground at a rapid rate.

Leo feared for his life at this moment. If he fell from this height while being pressured by gravity magic, he would surely become meat paste.

'Fuck! I have to use that spell if I want to survive this!' Leo immediately began casting this spell that came to his mind.

A few moments later, mere seconds before his body slammed into the stage, Leo used Divine Flame Fortification, which was his strongest defense magic spell.

BOOM!

The entire stage shook when Leo crashed into the stage, creating a crater in the center of it.

Dust and rubbles flew everywhere, obstructing the spectators' view and preventing them from seeing the situation on the stage.

But even without looking at his condition, many people there did not believe that Leo would be able to survive such a devastating attack.

"Shit… I really hope he's still alive…" The Thorns Family's representative swallowed nervously, as she was planning to recruit Leo into her family after the tournament.

If he died, it would be a huge waste of talent, not to mention the Fruit of Magic Awakening.
