”It's a suppressive Domain!” Water Mage Pinole blurted out when he sensed the iciness in their surroundings.
A Domain of this kind was rather powerful, as everyone under its effects was slower at casting spells, and the damage of their spells was weakened significantly, too. Normally, the Domain of a Soul-grade Seed could at most suppress twenty percent of their damage, but Mu Ningxue's Nirvana Ice Domain seemed to have suppressed thirty to forty percent!
In terms of Domain, it was likely that no one was stronger than Mu Ningxue's innate talent. Even strong Mages like Jack and Pinole could feel the strong suppression from her Ice Domain!
”I'll handle her!” Hannah harrumphed coldly. She summoned a lightning orb in her hand and hurled it at Mu Ningxue!
The lightning orb immediately split into sharp lightning arcs when it reached Mu Ningxue's vicinity. The lightning bolts extended rapidly to a length of twenty meters, like a deadly meteor hammer covered in lightning!
Mu Ningxue was shrouded by a small tornado, serving as a shield protecting her. Even though its defense was incomparable to the defense of Wind Wings: Shelter, it was more than enough to defend her from the lightning attack.
Hannah was agitated when she saw Mu Ningxue nullifying her attack with ease.
She could easily tell that the potency of her magic had dropped significantly. Normally, her Lightning Meteor Hammer would be much more effective! The woman clearly had an outstanding Domain that she was extremely jealous of!

”Humph, do you think you'll be fine as long as you pretend to be harmless? We're in the middle of a tournament, where participants are meant to compete with one another. Let me see what a woman who only knows how to earn someone's pity like you has!” Belle had been waiting for this chance for a long time. The news, articles, and women's magazines kept mentioning the Great Duchess of England, and Belle found it extremely annoying!
She had always come from an ancient noble family, yet why was this woman always in the limelight, while she was rotting away in a dark corner!
Belle seemed to be nursing a strong grievance. The power of the Curse Element burst out from her body, the crimson-red glow forming an evil spider web looming over Great Duchess Ayleen. A cursed spider on it was crawling toward Ayleen slowly, its greedy eyes locked onto her spirit.
”Belle, I have no idea why you hate me so much, but I'm really disappointed by how you're treating me. We had such a pleasant time when we went to Iceland together...” Ayleen glanced at the Curse Spell calmly.
”Humph, the Ice Domain is useless against Dark Magic, don't you underestimate me!” Belle's eyes emitted a wicked light as the Sinister Spider Trap descended rapidly.
Meanwhile, a sinister-looking demon with sharp fangs appeared out of nowhere, grabbing at the petite Ayleen with its giant arms, trying to drag Ayleen's spirit out of her body!
Ayleen was startled. Her opponent was using the Sinister Spider Trap on the surface, but she had actually cast the Demon Torture secretly. The woman was quite terrifying with how scheming she was. Most importantly, Ayleen did not feel like her opponent was showing any mercy to her. The Curse Magic was known for inflicting serious, unrecoverable damage on the target's soul. Ayleen could feel that the hate-demon filled was not only trying to teach her a lesson, but planning to tear her spirit into pieces!
Ayleen's face turned cold. She had always been friendly to people, and even when she was facing someone she did not like, she would still try her best to be sensible. She believed she had never done anything wrong to Belle, yet the woman was treating her so aggressively; it was truly infuriating.
Ayleen would not show any mercy to someone that was so eager to make her disappear!
”Heart-Crushing Symphony!”
Ayleen cast a Psychic Spell, unleashing a strong Psychic Impact at Belle before the demon could grab her.
The Advanced Curse Spell was fairly powerful, but Ayleen was extremely familiar with Dark Magic, and knew that the Demon Torture had to maintain its continuity. The Mage that cast the Demon Torture had to continue supplying the demon with the energy of the Curse Element while it was carrying out the attack.
Since Ayleen was aware of the spell's weakness, she decisively used a Psychic Spell to interrupt Belle's channeling of the Demon Torture!
Even though Belle was being very cautious, she did not expect Ayleen's Psychic Element to be so powerful. The Heart-Crushing Symphony was not just a single wave of attack, it was like a melody filled with grievances that remained in her mind until the symphony came to an end. During this time, her mind was greatly disturbed, preventing her from casting any spell.
”Allow me to lend you a hand!” a Canadian student who had long waited for a chance to fawn upon Belle said.
The Canadian student was obviously an offensive Mage. His magic began to surge, and even though the power of his spells had been weakened by Mu Ningxue's Nirvana Ice Domain, it still posed a great threat to Ayleen. Ayleen's primary Element was Water, and her defense was rather average, too. She could only defend herself passively...
