Chapter 240 Flame
Old Everey looked at the arena below with a serious expression. On his left stood a wizard with a fat face and dull features.
The wizard's gorgeous silver silk robe showed his identity, but his gloomy and slightly cruel look did not match the robe at all.
"Sit down, Yaxley, you look like you want to eat someone."
The wizard called Yaxley sat back in his seat dissatisfiedly, and whispered anxiously: "Is this the candidate you have chosen? The stupid son of the Benedict family, look, look, he is like a ball now, being kicked around by that oriental bastard..."
"Calm down, friend, you know we are not here for a duel."
"Are you sure, Mr. Avery? Are you sure..." When he said this, Yaxley looked around vigilantly, and he lowered his voice again: "Are you sure the master is still alive?"
Old Avery looked at his companion coldly, "Do you think I am lying?"
"Of course not, sir, I..."
"Okay." Old Avery interrupted his companion impatiently, "Don't talk about this anymore."
Yaxley nodded tactfully and put his attention back to the arena.
Barrow waved his wand and fired several spells at Xing Ze, trying to delay his opponent, but he was horrified to find that the Oriental man's speed had increased again.
How is this possible? Barrow shouted in his heart.
The first air blast spell had already made him incredible. His magic was clearly ready to be used, but it was just a little slow, and it was this that made him completely lose the initiative.
This damn Oriental man kept chasing him and hitting him, like a piece of ox-hide candy, which he could not get rid of, which made him have no place to use his magic.
The two spells obviously failed to stop Xing Ze, and did not even slow him down. In desperation, Barrow quietly took out the phoenix feather.
Come on, bastard, come on. He shouted secretly.
When Xing Ze rushed to the front, Barrow decisively activated the phoenix feather, and the scorching flames soared into the sky, instantly enveloping the two.
The audience in the venue screamed continuously, and many people leaned back involuntarily. Commentator Lee Jordan shouted even more excitedly. Fortunately, Professor Flitwick beside him immediately used Apparition to come to the field.
He was about to use a spell to extinguish the flames, but saw a figure flying out of the flames, passing over his head and falling heavily to the ground.
The professor turned around in surprise and looked at Barrow Foley who was rolling on the ground, and then he quickly turned his head to look at the gradually dissipating flames.
Xing Ze was slowly walking out of the fire. His whole body was wrapped in a ball of black. The moment he walked out of the fire circle, the black object instantly turned into fine dust particles and disappeared.
The whole arena was silent, and the audience just stared at Xing Ze who walked out of the flames. Suddenly someone cheered loudly. It was Cedric who led a group of students who supported Xing Ze. Among them, the Weasley twins shot several fireworks into the sky.
"For Merlin's sake!" Ben closed his eyes and asked bitterly, "Tell me that the cheers now are not for Barrow Foley."
Clara jumped up like a rabbit, she shouted: "He's fine, oh, Merlin's beard, he walked out of the fire unscathed, it must be the spell that worked!"
Ron shook Hermione, who squatted on the ground and even covered her eyes with both hands.
"Look, Hermione." Ron shouted with a silly smile, "Look, Hermione."
Miss Granger slightly opened two fingers, looked at the arena through the gaps between her fingers, and then put her hands down.
"Ha, what did I say, Ron." The girl looked like she had expected it, "Mr. Xingze will not lose."
Ron pouted and rolled his eyes at his companions beside him.
Flitwick in the middle of the venue thought he had seen it wrong, and blinked in disbelief. After confirming that it was Xingze, he hesitated whether to end the game.
But Barrow on the ground jumped up and shouted viciously: "I must kill you, little bastard."
After he finished speaking, he waved the magic wand in his hand, and a powerful spell shot at Xing Ze. This was his only remaining trump card.
Xing Ze did not expect this spell, but all of Barrow's movements had been seen through. He quickly turned sideways, and the magic energy brushed his chest and shot towards the barrier.
The crowd booed, and many people who supported Barrow began to boo. After all, the duel that should have been quite interesting has now become a one-sided beating, which is really boring.
Among them, many viewers bet on Barrow. They thought it was a sure-win business.
Although the Eastern wizard has been blown up by the newspapers recently, Barrow's popularity is booming under the operation of the pure-blood family. Moreover, many wizards in Great Britain are unwilling to admit that an Eastern wizard played a key role in saving the village of Ravenscar.
These people believe in the existence of heroes, but that hero should be someone like Barrow Foley, not Xing Ze.
But the cruel reality is before their eyes. The so-called heroes in their minds are being beaten again and again, and every time they resist, they are so weak and powerless.
The reluctance and humiliation caused by the gap made this group of people completely explode. They began to give Barrow a thumbs-up frantically, and all kinds of ugly and humiliating words came out of their mouths.
The teachers of Hogwarts were not just for show. Led by Professor McGonagall, they cast spells one after another. Silencing spells, Silencing spells, etc. were shot around the arena to prevent the students of the school from being polluted by unnecessary words.
Even Snape, who was always indifferent, took action, but his method was more direct. The two most arrogant wizards were sealed by him with the Silencing Spell, a more advanced Silencing Spell.
When the situation stabilized, Snape looked at Xing Ze meaningfully, then threw his robe and walked out of the arena.
Barrow was preparing the second spell. He didn't know if he had time, but at this moment he could only do this. All the rhythm was disrupted by Xing Ze.
As if waiting for his magic, Xing Ze did not continue to choose to get close to Barrow, but also recited the spell.
The two magics collided, and the brilliant magic energy exploded. After a series of incredible confrontations, the audience finally waited for the familiar magic duel.
The magic collided back and forth, and the crackling sound was endless. This is a duel between wizards, and this is a duel that tests a wizard's strength.
Professor Flitwick breathed a sigh of relief. If Xing Ze continued to rush towards Barrow, he would doubt whether the magic duel he participated in before was fake, although Xing Ze's offensive method was quite effective, which he had to admit.
