A scene

The duel in the courtyard of the Society of Magical Arts and Sciences in Tang was supposed to be purely a matter of spells, and the sorcerer Guo Rui has prepared well. He surrounds himself with a faint gray haze, and his opponent's lightning splashes against it and fizzles away to nothing. So does the next spell, and the next. Guo Rui, unable to cast back through his own shield, waits smugly for his opponent to run out of magic. His opponent's large apprentice steps forward and punches him in the nose.
