Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

From MC's perspective:

One hour later,

I walked out of the room. Then I saw Senior Gilbert and Carolina looking at the big screen.

Seeing that I joined them as well.

A few minutes later,

Information is shown on the screen. There are 10 wizard Halls. But not everyone can participate. For this internal competition. Only Level-5 and Level-6 wizards are eligible.

Where Level-5 wizards can fight in the Core House Category. And Level-6 wizards can fight in the True House Category.

What's more interesting is that the genius level-5 wizards can participate in the True House Category as well.

For 1st round 100 Level-5 wizards and 50 Level-6 wizards are eligible for the duel. The names are selected by the wizard Halls.

It's not up to the wizard students whether they can participate or not. The academy doesn't want to waste time by conducting average duels.

So after reading the information. A clarity appeared in my thoughts. The internal competition is severe this time. Because the Academy doesn't want to send mediocre to competition conducted by the 3 academies in the coming days.

First, the duels for level-5 wizards will be held. Then the duels for level-6 wizards are conducted.

Suddenly, a doubt appeared in my heart. The information appeared on the screen again.

The top 50 will be chosen from the 100 duels. Then Top 25 and final top 10 will be chosen from the following rounds.

Those top 10 are eligible for the competition between 3 academies. Similarly, the duels for the level-6 wizard will be held. And their final top 10 is also eligible for the next competition.

Senior Gilbert and Carolina are looking at the screen.

"I guess we have 20 duels today. After 5 days the 1st round will be over," Gilbert said.

Then he thought of something before saying, "The genius wizard students will be participating with you as well."

"I thought there would be a separate duel for them. But if they participate with us. Then the top 10 will be theirs," Carolina said with a sigh.

A look of understanding dawned on me. Then the information on the screen changes again. This time the rules are listed one by one.

No external uses are allowed. Such as artifacts, spell scrolls, runes, forbidden potions, and pills.

Usage of such items during the duel will lead to disqualification. Then the names and images of the 100 core wizard students are displayed.

Then I spotted Sister Carolina and my name was listed as well. A hint of relief flashes in my eye. Thought I was confident. But still, there was a chance for the backhands to play.

If they had taken away my qualifications, it would have been a huge hindrance to my progress. Fortunately, nothing like that had happened.

"Good"

"Both of you are listed," Gilbert said with a smile. Even he was worried about it. But in the end, it turned out alright.

"Our Sub-Taboo Hall has fewer members. You guys are selected as a default," He added further.

Hearing that I revealed a small smile on my face. For the first time, having fewer members became advantageous. There was no competition in the same Hall.

Then the duels for today were displayed on the screen. One by one the fixture appeared. My eyes are scanning each name.

But my name has not appeared so far. Then, the Senior Sister's name appeared on the 19th fixture.

"Alright, my name appeared," Carolina said. There was a hint of nervousness in her eyes.

"Let's see, whether Vincent comes up last," Gilbert said.

Hearing their words, an expectation rose in my heart. But when the last fixture appeared. It was not my name. Which means I'm not going to fight today.

A strange glint flashes in Gilbert's eyes. He has guessed something. He thinks Vincent will be matched against the genius wizards.

Most of the average wizard students will be weeded out early. Gilbert knows their talents are not worse. But compared it to genius wizard wizard students. They are average.

They don't come under a rare category like Vincent who has suitable inheritance. Which makes them weaker. "In 2 days, the 10 strong wizards will be predicted," He said in his heart.

The duel is going to be held at the duel arena ground. The ground is wide and large. The platform was laid with hard material with special barriers. It's specifically arranged for internal competition.

The 1st duel is going to start in one hour. The wizard students are already filling up the arena.

"Alright, I'm leaving. I'll come back when Carolina's turn comes up," After saying that Gilbert disappeared from the spot.

He came to motivate them and to make them forget about their insecurity. Unlike other wizard halls, the Sub-Taboo Hall is united.

"Brother Vincent, I'm going to prepare for the duel," After saying that Carolina walked away from this place.

At first, I didn't notice it. But now that I looked at her opponent. He is from the Elemental Hall. The Elemental Hall holds a grudge against her. No wonder, she was unsettled.

But I think she will eventually win the duel. After removing the unnecessary thoughts, I decided to spend time here.

After one hour, the big screen protection began to show the live stream. I saw both the participants walking up to the Stage.

But when I saw their Hall name. My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. One from the Power Hall and another one from the Mechanical Hall.

There is no need for the duel. I can already guess the winner. But I have to see how the Mechanical Hall's wizard is going to handle it.

I began to observe the Mechanical Wizard Student's physique. There is no physical transformation. This means this person's magic must be associated with the tool.

A look of intrigue appeared in my eyes. I haven't had much contact with the Mechanical Hall. Those people are low-key among other Halls.

When both stood opposite to each other. The invisible barrier began to cover the platform.

The referee, who was a level-6 wizard, gave the signal. I saw the Power-type wizard standing like a mountain. From his bodily behavior, it can be seen that he wants the opponent to shoot at him.

When I turned toward the Mechanical wizard on the screen. I saw him materializing his magic.

Under the cheers of wizard students, a drilling machine appeared behind the Mechanical Wizard. Seeing that tool-type magic. I'm getting old memories in my mind.

During the awakening ceremony at school, many of them awakened tool-type magic. But most of their tools are farming tools.

Looking at the drilling machine now. I guess he has a lot of talent. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been selected as one of the 100 students.

Then I saw a Mechanical Wizard using a drilling machine to attack the Power-type Wizard. Now the situation has changed. The Power type wizard moved.

He is not standing like a mountain anymore. Facing an incoming drilling machine, he tries to avoid it. Both of them are level-5 wizards. The power of the mechanical wizard can hurt the power-type wizard.

So the Power Type Wizard is finding a way to get closer. He can't exhibit long-range attacks. But the problem is the Mechanical wizard was aware of their Weakness.

He is using the drilling machine close to his body. This tactic brought cheers from the wizard students in the spectator area.

Then I saw a power-type wizard trying something. A light yellow color envelops his body like a shield. The next second, he starts rushing out towards the Mechanical Wizard.

Seeing the changes the crowd once again burst out in cheers.

The Mechanical Wizard was not afraid. The drilling tool starts spinning. When it comes into contact with the yellow shield.

Boom!

A small explosion occurs. Both of them retracted a few steps backward.

"Interesting," I muttered. Both of them are unscathed from each other's attack. The Yellow Cover is still operating. The drilling tool didn't break at all.

Seeing that both of them start to collide again. One after another deafening sound reverberated throughout the arena.

But both of them remain unscathed. If they don't come up with the real cards. They will exhaust their mana.

Then I saw the Mechanical Wizard was raising the size of the drilling machine. Eventually, the growth comes to a stop. Eventually, the machine now looks half of his size.

The pain on his face shows how difficult it is to control it. On the other hand, the power-type wizard's expression changes. He immediately doubled the strength of the Yellow cover protecting his body.

Now it looks a lot thicker. The collision happened again. This time the Power type retreated a few steps backward. But the Mechanical wizard only took two steps.

Seeing that whole arena quieted down. Everyone was optimistic about the power-type wizard. But he is losing his edge allowing the opponent to gain momentum.

The next moment, the power-type wizard explodes at full speed to reach the opponent. The movement of the mechanical wizard is not so fast. He is already focusing on the controlling the machine.
