Dark Light: Magic Betrayed

When the delegations from all the schools walked onto the stands, thunderous applause erupted.

I saw guides holding guidance signs surrounding the venue, representing every school participating in the Magic Cup.

Then the ushers held guidance signs and gathered around the center of the venue, slowly gathering together. Then the ushers danced and spread out to form a straight line.

At this moment, the guidance cards suddenly emitted a bright light, which slowly gathered together and transformed into the mark of the magic cup.

The magic cup emits streams of auroras that shine over the arena.

At this time, the magic cup slowly rose from the field, forming a magic platform

Then two figures slowly appeared in front of the magic table.

"Ladies! Gentlemen! Welcome Mr. Jiang Qi and Mr. Jiang, representatives of Jinfamen on the 2023 Magic Cup Organizing Committee. And Mr. Torres Baller, the head of the International Magic School Committee and the 1978 Magic Cup Duel Champion."

Then there was warm applause in the venue.

Mr. Jiang was seen wearing an oriental magic robe and slowly came to the magic stage and said solemnly: "Dear athletes, distinguished guests, ladies, gentlemen, friends. Athletes from magic schools from all over the world,

Gather with all the guests at the Changbai Mountain Magic Arena to share the magic event!

The beautiful encounter between Oriental Middle-earth culture and modern Magic Cup culture looks forward to bringing you a colorful experience of the integration of civilizations.

Here, on behalf of Jinfamen, I would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone.

At this moment, the Magic Cup opens as scheduled, and the magic dream blooms at this moment. I sincerely wish you all the best. Gain friendship here, break through yourself on the field, and show your style in the sacred game. Enjoy this wonderful magical journey.

This is a victory for magicians to unite and work together to pursue their dreams, and it is also a victory for the spirit of magic community with a shared future.

Friends, the Magic Cup movement not only pursues more accurate, better and stronger, but also advocates greater unity. Its charm is to transcend differences and promote mutual tolerance and understanding.

This Magic Cup will show the world the tenacity of magicians to overcome challenges in the face of difficulties and create a future together. Let us go hand in hand and write a new chapter of building a community of magical destiny for the future. Now I am very honored to invite you

Mr. Baller, head of the International Council of Magical Schools, delivered a speech."

Amid applause, Mr. Baller slowly walked towards the magic stage in a blue magic robe.

"Magic Cup athletes, respected elders of Jinfamen, distinguished guests, and friends of the Magic Cup movement welcome to participate in the 2023 Magic Cup. The Magic Cup represents ambition, courage and strength like the Eastern Middle-earth culture. In Eastern China,

There are countless magicians participating in the Magic Cup movement, so that the entire magical world can benefit from it.

Unfortunately, the Western Magic Region did not participate in this grand event. I would like to thank Jinfamen for allowing this Magic Cup to be held, and thank you for allowing everyone to safely participate in this Magic Cup.

The reason why we are able to gather here is due to the active dedication of Jinfamen and countless magicians from all over the world. Thank you for your hard work and unity and cooperation.

In the same spirit, our thoughts are still with those Western magicians who are unable to attend due to Ministry of Magic reasons.

Athletes of the Magic Cup, the stage of the Magic Cup has been set for you. You have overcome many difficulties and experienced many uncertainties and finally arrived here. But you will have your moment next, which is what you have been looking forward to for a long time.

The moment is also the moment we have been waiting for for a long time. Now you will realize your magic dreams in the magnificent sports venues under the gaze of hundreds of millions of magicians.

As Magic Cup athletes, you will show the world what the world can be like if we play by the same rules and respect each other. Over the next three weeks, you will compete for top honors while also competing in the Magic Village.

Living harmoniously under the same roof, there will be no discrimination in the Magic Village.

The world we live in is fragile, with divisions, conflicts and suspicions escalating day by day. We need to prove to the world that fiercely competitive opponents can coexist peacefully and respect each other.

This is the mission of the Magic Cup, to unite magicians in peaceful competition. The Magic Cup always builds a bridge of communication and will never build high walls.

The Magic Cup allows me to maintain diversity while uniting us. In the spirit of the Magic Cup's peace, I call on all areas of the Magical World to abide by your commitment to the Magic Cup Truce and give peace a chance.

Dear athletes, we stand with you and we are all cheering for you.

Now I declare the 2023 Magic Cup open!"

At this time, countless fireworks shot into the sky.

Espina looked at the scene in front of her with great surprise. The fireworks bloomed brightly above the Changbai Mountain Magic Arena like a garland crown.

As the fireworks slowly extinguished, a light music filled the sky.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome the Magic Cup Torch!"

"The torch relay ceremony will begin immediately!"

At this time, an Eastern magician wearing a red magic robe slowly entered the arena holding a torch. Then many magicians in red robes appeared in the arena, passing the magic cup torch to each other.

After completing the round of passing, they all raised the torches in their hands, and fire dragons flew out of the torches. Under the control of the last red-robed magician, they successfully ignited the magic cup!

A ball of flame shot straight into the sky!

The magic cup slowly flew into the air and emitted a bright light like the sun!

At this time, countless fireworks were flying in the sky above the arena. The bright fireworks were dazzling and slowly formed a magic cup pattern.

At this time, the crystal barrier came: "This is the broadcast of the opening ceremony of the 2023 Magic Cup. Thank you for watching. Goodbye!"

As the picture on the crystal barrier disappeared, Principal Epps Damon suddenly waved his arm, and the crystal barrier immediately disappeared.

Then Principal Epps Damon said excitedly: "Ladies and gentlemen, next, the school's classes will be suspended for three weeks. Different competition scenes will be played in all classrooms. Individual competitions and team competitions will be played.

It goes on as scheduled. Everyone is welcome to go.”

Speaking of types, Principal Epps Damon suddenly clapped his hands, and countless paper airplanes flew into the auditorium from the window and slowly flew into the hands of the students.

After Espina took a piece of paper airplane and opened it, she saw that each classroom on it corresponded to different competition events: beast flying, multi-person duel, herbal blending, canyon fighting, energy control, flying dragon ball, etc., many

There are many competitions, and you can feel the excitement of the competition just by looking at the names.

When all the students got the paper airplanes, Principal Epps Damon said with a smile: "There are no classes today. Everyone can discuss how to watch these games in the next three weeks. Okay, that's the end of my speech.

It's over." After saying that, he led the school professors and left.

At this time, Espoo looked up at the school clock and found that it was already half past eleven.

As the clock struck eleven-thirty, many house elves appeared around the auditorium, waving their hands, and countless exquisite foods appeared on the long table.

While eating her food, Espoo and her three friends discussed where to watch the game first tomorrow.

After discussion, the four of them agreed to watch the five-on-five duel match in the first week.
