"Sounds like fun, where do I go for this?" Merlin asked while accepting the quest
"It's just in the next roo a door on the other side of the roo room "Make your way over there and another instructor will find you an opponent"
Merlin nodded and quickly ht of an elevated platfory at each other in close proximity
The floor around the elevated platform seemed to be padded, and any further than that was just rows of benches where several other students sat and watched the ongoing duel
An older looking wizard approached him as he entered the room He seemed to be the instructor that
"Ah, our next challenger has arrived just in tian speaking with Merlin, one of the students as duelling had been sent flying onto the padded floor " Ends"
The instructor pinched his tee
"Everyone take a break, our newest student needs time to prepare" The instructor yelled to everyone in the roo to Merlin, "Come, follow me"
Merlin was led into an equipment room full of lockers
"Please store your weapons and other items ae have lockers you can utilise, or--" The instructor started talking, but Merlin quickly threw his staff, daggers and cloak into his inventory "That works too, I suppose"
The instructor then grabbed two pieces of equiplove with an embedded crystal and a thin wand, and handed them both to Merlin
Merlin inspected the wand as he received it, causing an informationto appear

'Ah right, this thing is a trap for neizards' Merlin thought to hi the information'Sure, it su force of the force bolt if you take it head-on, and that erous'
Merlin quickly did the math in his head and realised that if he kept his shi+eld up without dropping it, he could have it up for a little over half a hly a fourth of the ti spells into account either, which would drastically reduce his resources
