《Breeding Dragons From Today》Chapter 72: A Sixteen-Year-Old Tier-6 Mage
Advertisement
Under the support of the Golden Combat Aura, Don Quixote's aura became even more terrifying.
A faint golden radiance covered his entire body. At this moment, he seemed to be covered in sunlight.
"The Empire's Light of Dawn!"
Someone from the Knight Academy's side shouted excitedly.
In the history of the Yheng Empire, only two people possessed the golden cross combat aura. Don Quixote was like the Yheng Empire's light of dawn.
Once he grew up, he would protect the Empire like the radiance of the Sun.
The knight's longsword that was wrapped in the golden combat aura cut open the giant fire pythons and crushed the flames.
The five giant fire pythons were all killed by Don Quixote one by one.
The Tulip Magic Academy's students all had solemn expressions on their faces. Their eyes were filled with worry.
This kind of power was too terrifying, and it was impossible for Joelson to block it.
Don Quixote walked towards Joelson step by step. No matter what magic Joelson threw at him, it would be easily shattered by the golden combat aura on the knight's longsword in his hand.
However, to everyone's surprise...
There was no sign of panic or nervousness on Joelson's face.
"Even one light attribute is at the very least? It's so powerful. In that case, the fire attribute combat aura that I've cultivated shouldn't be too bad. This is really good news." Joelson said to himself in a soft voice that only he could hear.
At this moment, the distance between Don Quixote and him was already less than ten meters.
"Have you completely given up resisting?"
Don Quixote's eyes revealed a hint of disappointment.
He thought that Joelson would be a worthy opponent.
He slowly raised the longsword that was covered in golden combat aura, intending to sweep Joelson down from the stage.

At this moment, Joelson suddenly looked at Don Quixote and raised his right hand to face him.
Joelson's expression was calm as he said calmly, "Pillar of fire."
Don Quixote's expression suddenly changed. His battle instincts told him that there was a strong sense of danger coming from the right.
He immediately moved to the left.
Boom!
A pillar of fire shot out from the ground, mixed with some lava.
There was an exclamation from the field.
A Ray of light flashed in Tang Man's eyes. He could not control his excitement and took two steps forward.
"Level... level-six magic!"
"Joelson is already a level-six magician?!"
"Oh my God of Magic!"
"This speed of advancement is unbelievable!"
The students of Tulip Magic Academy opened their mouths wide, staring at the very young figure on the stage in disbelief. They didn't know what they were feeling.
"A sixth-tier mage?!"
The students of the Knight Academy had the same reaction.
Engel's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.
If he remembered correctly, this student named Joelson Edward should only be sixteen years old this year, right?
Sixteen years old, sixth-tier.
These two words, which were completely unrelated to each other, were put together at this moment.
His cultivation was still magic, and it was not easier for him to advance to a knight.
It was too terrifying!
When he was born, did he receive the blessing of the God of Magic?!
Don Quixote also advanced to a sixth-tier knight at the age of eighteen!
Engel was stunned for a moment, unable to speak.
If it was said that Don Quixote was very likely to become a saint-level knight in the future.
Then, Joelson was destined to become a saint-level mage!
Stephanie blinked her big eyes.

Joelson was actually a sixth-level mage?!
Then, he was only using the power of a fifth-level mage to fight against her. was he deliberately giving in to her?!
A trace of shame and anger flashed across Stephanie's face.
"Damn it! Sooner or later, I'll teach you a good lesson!"
Hawthorne's face became even gloomier.
On the field, the battle suddenly became several times more intense.
"Fire wave!"
Joelson waved a finger, and a row of huge fire waves appeared out of thin air on the dueling platform, and quickly pushed toward Don Quixote.
Don Quixote's eyes lit up, and for the first time, a different expression appeared on his cold face.
"This is what makes it interesting!"
A golden aura burst out, splitting the huge flame wave in half.
"Pillar of fire!"
Don Quixote dodged on the field like a nimble flea. His speed was frighteningly fast.
The surrounding students could not see where he was at all. They could only see blurry phantoms.
Tier 6.
The strength of a mage was finally revealed.
Even Don Quixote, who had the golden cross battle aura, could only dodge.
He did not dare to take a level-6 spell head-on.
Moreover, Joelson could even cast a level-6 spell instantaneously. He was practically a moving cannon.
"What a degenerate." Even Quixote could not help but curse in his heart.
He tried to grab onto Joelson, but Joelson's figure kept moving.
He was clearly a mage, but his speed was so fast that even he could not catch up.
Joelson waved his hand, and countless fire elements gathered, turning into flames and pouncing in the same direction.
It was Don Quixote's position!
Boom!
The surging flames completely engulfed Don Quixote.
All the students of the Tulip Magic Academy revealed ecstatic expressions.
Did he win?
Of course not.
Golden combat aura radiance bloomed from the flames. Don Quixote's figure rushed out arrogantly, his entire person was like a pale golden sun.
He raised the Knight's Longsword in his hand high up, his expression solemn.
"Cross slash!"
Two crossed golden combat aura shot towards Joelson.
It was the same as Stephanie's "combat aura release", but Don Quixote's control of power was obviously better. After the combat aura was released, it dissipated at a much slower speed.
Joelson wanted to dodge, but Don Quixote's figure flashed and blocked him.
Joelson only had two choices, to break through Don Quixote's block.
Or, to resist the golden cross's combat aura.
Neither choice seemed to be possible.
In the next moment, Joelson made an unexpected move.
He actually took the initiative to retreat in the direction of the Golden Cross's combat aura.
It was as if he could not see the combat aura glow getting closer and closer to his back.
"Is he crazy?!"
Tang Man was very anxious.
The battle aura that could be released from his body was not something that a tier 6 mage's magic shield could withstand. If this attack hit, Joelson would definitely be seriously injured.
"Quick! Open the magic barrier!"
Tang Man urged anxiously.
He would never let the number one genius of Tulip Academy, Sir Harriet's personal disciple, be seriously injured.
The crowd below the stage was also shocked.
Dayshannon's beautiful face was full of worry, and she tightly covered her mouth.
"No!"
Hawthorne stood up excitedly, his eyes could not hide the excitement in them.
"Yes! That's it!"
Soon, he would be able to see the scene of Joelson vomiting blood and falling to the ground.
"hahaha!"

8 1234Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.

8 136Binary Progression: Torrented Edition
This was ment to be the self-published 'real' book of Binary Progression; turns out there isn't much of a market for this kind of story... that and it sucked! As such I am writing another (more successful) series but this was just laying about my book folder so I'm posting it here, please forget the fact I said it sucked, pretty please. JohnWillStab is the poorly-named shut-in on a quest to get into MMOs after a failed online career backfired leaving him uninterested in his speciality, strategy games. He discovers an old, abandoned game with an active, albeit very eccentric, community of no more than five-hundred players on a single server maintained by an unknown individual. Unbeknownst to him, the game he found is more than just an ordinary WoW clone and after many adventures with his group, they make the terrifying discovery that after two full volumes this story becomes a god damn isekai. What’s worse, JohnWillStab, the number-one edgelord on the server is somehow ending up in positions of power despite literally being an undead rogue with evil magic tentacles! Will John’s edginess ruin the isekai? Why does the doctor have the highest kill-count in the game? Is 👑 really a valid character you could use for your username? Can the chef perform an exorcism? Why is God asking John for chicken nuggets? Really, he could just spawn them in - in fact, we saw him spawning food in before!
