Let alone the higher-ups of Naka City, even Reyer was shocked at this moment.

He didn’t expect the parrot Kelly gave him to be the famous young Phoenix.

No wonder he had felt that this little fellow was very powerful previously. Now, he finally understood what was going on.

This kid’s words were really shocking. He gave such an expensive gift right away.

Reyer really didn’t know what to say.

“It can’t be helped. My student is filial. That’s why he gave me such a pet. If there’s a chance, I’ll get him to help you all capture one. Alright, alright. All of you don’t have to look so envious.”

Reyer had always kept a low profile, but at this moment, he could not help but become high-profile.

He looked at the higher-ups of Naka City. They all had students, but none of them were as filial as Kelly.

Meanwhile, the battle on the other side of the arena had already ended. One could imagine how powerful the World Snake was.

Even if the other party was a powerful Summoner, there was no way he could persist.

So far, Kelly had been able to instantly kill any opponent.

Moreover, through various methods, he had displayed shocking talent in different classes. This made everyone find it unbelievable.

Kelly, on the other hand, had already taken all of this to heart.

Ever since Golden Crow broke through, he knew that this little guy was very powerful now. Ordinary people were not his match at all.

The third battle was a battle between Magicians. At this moment, everyone on the field was looking at Kelly differently.

Not long ago, they even thought that it was impossible for this country bumpkin to survive.

But now, everyone’s thoughts were different. When Kelly arrived at the arena of the third round, he was very surprised.

He did not expect his opponent this time to be John.

At this moment, John had a serious expression on his face. He had always hoped that he could have a chance to fight Kelly again.

The first time he was defeated by Kelly, he was very unconvinced.

However, at that time, John knew that there was indeed a gap between him and Kelly.m

At that time, he had indeed underestimated Kelly, but over the years, he had continuously improved his strength.

John also slowly realized that it was indeed very difficult for Kelly to reach the stage he was at. This was something he couldn’t bear.

So now John’s attitude towards Kelly had actually changed a lot.

He was no longer as hostile to Kelly as before. Instead, he acknowledged Kelly’s efforts more at this moment. However, he still hoped that he could surpass this man one day and become a stronger existence than him.

“I really didn’t expect it to be a pinnacle showdown between the two of us again.” Unlike before, Kelly was also surprised when he saw John.

Naturally, he still remembered the hostility that this guy had always shown towards him.

However, Kelly did not take it to heart. After all, to him, this group of people was just like children, so how could an adult like Kelly be calculative with a child?

John was not surprised to see Kelly like this, but he was not angry at this moment.

He only smiled and said, “I did lose to you previously, but the situation now is different from before. Perhaps I still can’t defeat you, but I won’t lose too badly this time.”

After so long, John had been working hard to become stronger. He hoped that he could surpass Kelly one day.

Therefore, he believed that after a year of refinement, his strength would definitely be stronger. At the very least, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to deal with Kelly.

“Maybe so.”

Kelly said indifferently and started to attack. At that moment, everyone thought that this battle would become quite interesting.

However, who would have thought that it would be the same as the previous battle? It had always been one-sided.

The moment Kelly attacked, John did not even have time to react before he was sent flying by Kelly’s Fireball.

At this point, everyone was already used to it. If Kelly didn’t instantly kill his opponent, it would be the strangest thing.

Anthony and the others saw with their own eyes that Kelly was so powerful, and now they had a whole new level of respect for him. After all, they had seen too many geniuses, but none of them could reach Kelly’s level.

Moby said, “This little guy is indeed very powerful. He’s completely different from the people I’ve seen before. But Reyer, isn’t it a little inhumane for you to let him fight like this?”

After all, he did not have many chances to rest. Any normal person would feel tired.

Originally, they thought that Reyer would have some reaction because of this, but he did not.

At this moment, Reyer shook his head and said casually, “Don’t worry. This little guy won’t have a problem dealing with them. This strength is nothing to him.”

As a mage, Anthony naturally understood that Kelly’s techniques were not weak in the battle just now, so he had exhausted a lot of his mental strength.

At this moment, Robert, who had been sitting at the side and not saying a word, was also feeling quite uncomfortable.

After all, after witnessing Kelly’s battles with his own eyes, he was even more delighted with this young man who was especially valued by Reyer.

He even wanted Lillian to take the initiative to get close to Kelly so that he could pull Kelly over to his side.

After all, such a young man’s future was limitless.

However, when he thought of Lillian’s future, he could not help but feel bitter. He was a little unwilling to let Lillian do such a thing.

At this moment, Reyer, who was sitting at the side, seemed to have seen through Robert’s thoughts. He smiled and said, “What do you think? Seeing that my student is powerful, you want to rope him in? It’s not impossible. As long as Lillian marries my student, won’t I be considered half a student of yours?”

“Get lost, get lost. Don’t let me hear such words a second time.”

Robert immediately revealed a very angry expression and scolded loudly.

Meanwhile, Reyer only smiled helplessly and did not say anything. In any case, he knew that the final outcome would definitely be the same as what he thought.

Regardless of whether these two children were forced or not, they would eventually get together.

Reyer was incomparably confident!
