Using a combination of [Charge] and [Double Jump] I weaved between the slaughter of roots threatening to impale me.
Breaking through the last of its defenses, the partridge tried to fly away but it was too late as the tip of my sword pierced its chest.
The heat of the flames reduced its body to ash in a matter of seconds.
With it gone the last of Trent's health also disappeared, the snake-like roots falling to the ground lifeless.
The audience exploded with applause.
I glanced toward the white-haired man for his reaction and all I saw was cold indifference.
With a wave of his hand the crowd quieted down and a gong rung twice, signaling the second challenge.
Going by the theme the next challenge should be turtle doves but somehow, I doubted that.
Two doors on opposite sides of the arena were opened and I readied myself for what was to come next.
Instinct forced me to jump into the air.
Crash!
Below me were two spinning tops colliding against each other causing sparks to shoot out.
Jumping away I put some distance between us.
The 'tops' finally slowed themselves down long enough for me to have a good look. The tops were in fact two green turtle shells with foot long spikes growing along the side and back. I almost expect for the Bowser head to pop out from one of the holes.

Momentarily surprised by their low HP I quickly skimmed through their bio and got a brief understanding of their skills.
[Sense Danger.]
I jumped to a safe distance as another Trent crashed into the ground.
"…right, it was two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree."
Well things just suddenly got significantly harder.
The turtle shells had also apparently gotten their second wind as they began to spin again shooting off to opposite sides of the ring and ricocheting off the walls quickly becoming blurs as they reached their top speed of 140 mph.
I scanned the arena for anything of use.
My eyes landed on the tree stump that had yet to disappear and the beginnings of a plan began to form in my mind. I ran towards it, avoiding the spinning shells and cutting any tree roots that appeared in front of me with my blade.
Reaching the stump, I jumped on it and used the last of my mana to cast [Puppetry] on it.
The tree roots quickly came to life.
Unleashing my dragons once more I took out small poches for each of them to carry and sent them off to deal with the Trent.
Meanwhile I focused on the spiked turtle shells.
I sheath my sword and took out my potions crossbow and a quiver of potion bolts.
Tracing their trajectory, I began to fire bolts seemingly at random.
Each time one exploded an ice wall five feet tall would spring out of the ground.
The turtles bounced off the walls like pinballs until they finally crashed into each other breaking off some of the spikes.
Taking the chance, I made the trunk move towards them by using its roots like legs not unlike an octopus.
Out of the corner of my eye I could see the dolls flying over the Trent dropping potion bomb from their bags, causing pieces of wood to be blown off only to quickly regrow a second later. Each time it tried to spin one of the dragons would drop an ice bomb causing its roots to freeze over and break.
Once I was close enough to the shells, I had the roots lash towards them hoping to flip them over.
The shells however noticed this as they seemed to grow momentarily before shooting out their spikes in every direction.
The spiked projectiles were powerful enough to destroy the roots with ease.
Batting away a spike heading toward my chest with the back of my armored gauntlet I shot off an explosive bolt into one of the newly opened holes on its back.
An agonizing shirk was heard as the bolt exploded and green alchemic fire shot from every hole on its body.
As it slowly roasted from the inside, I sent another bolt toward the second turtle shell.
Unfortunately, the shell was faster as it sprouted new spikes, the liquid fire falling off harmlessly.
"Tch."
I switched to an ice bolt, but the turtle shell was already moving away.
A look at my mana I noticed that it was at 25% percent.
With a last cry the burning turtle shell became silent.

The remaining shell looked to be serious now as it used its magic to launch blue energy balls from its opening, the scene scarcely reminding me of those 'bullet hell' games that were so popular in games.
The balls were more powerful than they seemed too, making quick work of the ice walls.
And so the game continued as I divided my attention between controlling my dragon puppets from a distance and dodging the slaughter of bullets.
It wasn't until several minutes of this that I was finally able to see an opening once it ran out of mana. My health was blinking red from the bullets that managed to graze me when I got distracted.
Grabbing an Ice Shard in one hand and my wand in the other I send a slashing curse at the turtle shell prompting it to charge at me.
It crossed half the distance in the blink of an eye, but I was ready as I pointed my wand and mentally called out the name of my spell, 'Flippendo.'
The spell met its mark as the turtle shell was flipped on its back still heading in my direction.
Channeling my mana into the shard I formed a curved ramp behind me in the shape of a 'u'.
