Su Wen's expression was also grave as he prepared to meet Huo Wu's strongest attack with his full strength.
The fusion of three Spirit Elders' power, combined with her Spirit Ring Fusion talent, erupting with her entire body's spirit power to unleash this terrifying spiraling fireball.
The flame, carrying a cohesive force within its rotation, condensed terrifying explosive fluctuations as it shot towards Su Wen.
This was Huo Wu's second spirit skill, Spiraling Flame.
It was a single-target, power-attack spirit skill. Unfortunately, if the distance was too great, it could easily miss.
Her main duty was still to use her third skill for control.
To compensate for her lack of offensive power, she needed to obtain a tracking-type power-attack spirit skill for her fourth ring. Only then could she, the two Fire Star Spirit Masters, and her Spirit Ring Fusion talent be maximized.
Spirit Ring Fusion: fusing the spirit power that could be instantaneously erupted from all spirit rings when using a spirit skill, channeling all that explosive power into a single skill.
Undoubtedly, Huo Wu's development direction was coordinated with this talent of hers.
BOOM!
The Spiraling Flame sphere flew at high speed. Su Wen had no intention of dodging.
Huo Wu had provoked him earlier precisely to make him take this Spiraling Flame head-on if possible.
Rocks transformed from book pages danced around Su Wen. They weren't clumsy at all; instead, they were incredibly agile, arranging themselves in front of Su Wen to form a massive stone formation.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
An earthen-yellow light barrier formed, colliding with the Spiraling Flame sphere.
The power of the explosion landed on the light barrier, causing many of the rocks forming the formation to shatter.
The rocks didn't shatter completely, and the light barrier, though teetering on the verge of collapse, didn't shatter either.
He forcibly tanked it!
Huo Wu couldn't believe it.
Su Wen, however, didn't stop there.
His goal was to replicate their spirits. Having taken a hit from Huo Wu, he couldn't do nothing in return.
A massive airflow exploded beneath his feet, propelling his body forward rapidly. Under his control, the surrounding airflow parted, reducing the resistance to his advance.
Su Wen quickly rushed into the midst of the six Team Blazing members. A Rasenshuriken condensed in his right hand, which he threw at the charging Huo Wushuang.
The moment the Rasenshuriken left his hand, Su Wen accelerated again, instantly arriving in front of Huo Wu. Airflow rotated at high speed on his left hand, forming a cyan wind blade.
Splurch.
The wind blade stabbed into Huo Wu's body, and drops of fresh blood fell onto the ring.
Su Wen didn't pierce her completely. He just inserted the wind blade slightly, drawing blood, achieving his goal.
So fast!
Su Wen had arrived in front of Huo Wu in an instant.
Faster than his first acceleration.
Huo Wu stared blankly, feeling the pain below, somewhat unable to believe it.
She wanted to resist, but she had tried to defend based on the timing of Su Wen's first acceleration.
However, Su Wen was faster, rudely arriving in front of her and stabbing her with the wind blade in his left hand.
"Referee, we concede!" Huo Wushuang saw his sister injured by the wind blade. Coupled with the fact that even Huo Wu's strongest burst hadn't done anything to Su Wen, he conceded immediately. He rushed to Huo Wu's side and pushed Su Wen away.
The wind blade was pulled out, bringing out some more blood.
Huo Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief. The wind blade wasn't long, and the insertion was shallow; the wound wasn't serious.
"Thank you for letting me win," Su Wen said.
Huo Wushuang took a deep breath, calming his emotions, and didn't lose his temper at Su Wen.
Even though fire-attribute Spirit Masters were hot-tempered, he knew Su Wen had held back just now.
That stab was probably a declaration: You lost.
Huo Wushuang didn't believe Su Wen's wind blade was really that short.
"Thank you for showing mercy," Huo Wushuang said.
"It's just a competition, as it should be." Su Wen took Ning Rongrong and left the ring.
Spectator area.
Qin Ming frowned, pondering the move Su Wen used to resist Huo Wu's burst just now.
"A self-created spirit skill?"
Undoubtedly, the effect of the stone formation Su Wen displayed was completely different from the control-type skill he had publicly announced as his third skill. It was a defense-type skill.
Although he knew Su Wen might develop a defensive self-created skill using his earth element control, Qin Ming never expected it to be so fast.
Moreover, it seemed to incorporate the characteristics of the third spirit skill, using combination techniques to strengthen defense.
The defensive strength just now had already surpassed the Shi Mo brothers.
At this moment, Qin Ming doubted his own cognition.
Can a Spirit Master who is so comprehensive and exceeds the standard in every aspect really exist on the continent?
In this battle, Su Wen replicated three spirits, including Huo Wushuang's One-Horned Fire Tyrant Dragon, Huo Wu's Fire Shadow, and that auxiliary-type Fire Star spirit.
"The Fire Star spirit itself is quite useful to me. It will help a lot in my further development of fire-attribute formations."
The 'Raging Fire Body' Su Wen replicated earlier was useful for his cultivation, and now this Fire Star spirit was useful for his fire attribute development.
It had to be said, this spirit battle training tour was of great significance to Su Wen.
It was his first contest with the outstanding Spirit Masters of the continent, and also a chance to learn from their spirits, skills, and combat styles.
"The value of the One-Horned Fire Tyrant Dragon and Fire Shadow spirits awaits development." Su Wen felt he needed to digest this.
He had already replicated a lot.
Now, with two top-tier spirits and three high-tier spirits replicated, the spirit power consumption to maintain these replications at all times was starting to become noticeable.
So, he sought out Qin Ming.
"Teacher Qin, I want to apply to leave the team for a while to digest the gains from these two days."
Qin Ming understood Su Wen's words but didn't comprehend them.
You have gains?
Qin Ming expressed that in the three days he watched, Su Wen won easily without a scratch on him.
Oh, if there was any, it was the backlash from Su Wen using his own Rasenshuriken.
Su Wen didn't even get hurt using the Fire Demon Style anymore.
However, Su Wen had always been reliable. Qin Ming didn't think he was slacking off, so after thinking about it, he nodded and agreed to his request.
Su Wen returned to the lounge and first sensed the abilities and characteristics of the three spirits he replicated today.
An hour later.
Having a rough understanding of their characteristics, he began to think about where to digest his insights in the coming days.
"Practice brings true knowledge. Relying solely on imagination makes it difficult to develop anything valuable."
Su Wen needed a place where he could unleash his abilities freely to test the many spirits he had replicated, make selections, discard unnecessary burdens, and further develop his fourth spirit skill.
While Su Wen was troubled, Qin Ming found him.
"Little Wen, you're planning to develop spirit skills next, right?"
Su Wen nodded. "That's right."
"The team leader of Team Blazing just chatted with me. He wants to invite you to Blazing Academy for an exchange."
Exchange?
No go.
Su Wen wanted to refuse without thinking.
If I want to fight, isn't staying at the Great Spirit Arena better?
How many Spirit Elders and Spirit Ancestors can there be in a Spirit Master Academy?
"Blazing Academy's fire-type cultivation grounds are the best on the continent. They built these flame environments not only to provide cultivation grounds for students but also grounds for practicing spirit skills."
Oh?
Then I can go take a look.
