As the sun sets, the campus is enveloped in a soft golden glow. Gerlin sits on a bench in the courtyard of the academy, holding a thick book of spell models in his hands. His good friend Mills comes over, holding a cup of freshly brewed tea, and sits next to him.

"Hey, Gerling, have you heard? The college is going to hold a competition!" Mills' face was full of excitement, and his eyes were shining with amusement.

"I heard about it." Gerlin raised his head and smiled. "The prize is very tempting. Especially during the bloody battle, the mission reward will be doubled. This is really an opportunity for us."

"Yes, not only that, I heard that the price of spell models and potions has also been reduced significantly!" Mills whispered, his eyes flashing with longing for the future, "We will definitely make a lot of money this time!"

Gerlin smiled, but thought to himself. Although there were generous rewards, he knew that participating in the competition was not just for shelter, but more for challenging himself and increasing his strength.

"However, this competition is not an ordinary one. I heard that there will be many powerful opponents." Gerling put down the booklet, looked up at Mills, and his smile gradually faded.

"Yes," Mills nodded solemnly, "I heard that several senior students are also participating. I thought our class would do well, but I didn't expect there would be so many opponents. They are much stronger than us..."

"Strength is important, but we can't be discouraged." Gerling patted Mills on the shoulder and put on a firm look on his face again. "As long as we stay focused and try our best, nothing is impossible now!"

"Yes! There is nothing to be afraid of as long as you work hard!" Mills was in high spirits, and his raised mouth corners revealed a bit of fearlessness.

"Then, from now on, we have to develop a detailed training plan." Gerlin said seriously, "We have to strengthen our skills every day, especially those spell models. This way, we can gain an advantage in the competition."

"No problem!" Mills nodded rapidly, staring at the sun that was about to set in the sky, his heart filled with passion.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and the preparations for the competition were in full swing. The academy was filled with a tense atmosphere of preparation, and students gathered together to exchange strategies and practice spells.

One morning, Gerling and Mills arrived at the training ground early. Looking around, they saw many classmates competing. At this time, a burly senior student wearing a black cloak came over with a calm and composed look on his face.

"Hey, Gerling, Mills, I heard you guys are going to participate in the competition too?" The student said with a slightly sarcastic smile, "Are you ready to face failure?"

"We are not afraid of you!" Mills responded with clenched teeth without showing any weakness.

Gerling pulled Mills, knowing that such a provocation would only make him more determined. But he was not to be outdone: "We will give 100% of our effort, and we will see what the final result will be!"

"It's good to be confident, but you need to be fully prepared to compete with us." The senior student smiled coldly and walked away, as if he didn't take them seriously at all.

Looking at the back of the senior student, Mills felt indignant in his heart: "How self-righteous! I must let him see our strength in the game!"

"Don't be discouraged, Mills. The game is where we truly demonstrate our strength." Gerling patted him on the shoulder and pointed to the distance. "Let's continue training and strive to improve our level during this period of time."

"You're right." Mills put away his anger and regained his fighting spirit, "Let's get started!"

The training is in full swing, and Gerling and Mills are working hard to improve their skills and coordination every day. Hard work pays off, and after a few weeks of hard work, their strength has improved significantly.

The day of the competition finally arrived. Gerlin arrived at the competition venue early and saw contestants from various colleges gathering together. The atmosphere gradually became tense and heated.

"Dear students, welcome to the competition! Today we will witness the competition among all the contestants. I hope everyone can perform at their best!" The host's voice echoed throughout the venue. Gerling felt his heart beating faster and was full of anticipation.

"Gerlin, are you ready?" Mills stood beside him, with passion flashing in his eyes.

"Of course, this is the result of our hard work." Gerling smiled slightly and secretly cheered himself up in his heart.

Before the game started, all the players were warming up on the field. The atmosphere between the teams was high and everyone was extremely focused. Gerling seized this opportunity and began to calmly adjust his breathing, preparing for the next challenge.

At this moment, the burly senior student appeared in front of them with a disdainful smile on his face. "Do you really think you can win this game? You are so naive!"

"We will try our best and won't give up easily!" Gerling straightened his back with a firm look in his eyes.

"Interesting, I will show you what real power is." The senior student smiled faintly and then turned and left.

Mills whispered, “How arrogant! We must not lose to him!”

"Don't let your opponent affect your condition, and focus on the game." Gerling said, looking firmly ahead.

"Yes!" Mills also cheered up along with Gelling's mood and made a secret decision in his heart.

The horn of the game sounded, and the players quickly got into the game. The first game was an individual match. Gerling felt nervous and needed to concentrate every time he cast a spell. As the spell flew out of his hands, he gradually regained his confidence.

After a round of competition, Gerling successfully entered the semi-finals. He looked around and his eyes fell on another opponent - a senior student who was standing confidently in the middle of the field.

"Today, I will make you understand the difference!" the senior student said with a sharp look in his eyes.

"How do you know if you don't try?" Gerlin roared, his heart full of fighting spirit.

A fierce duel began, and the two players launched a long struggle on the field. Lightning spells, raging flames, and the air was filled with the atmosphere of anxiety and competition. The audience shouted in unison, looking forward to the outcome.
