The Comparison of Flames
"Hmph!
Let's bet on the winner of this Arcana Ceremony. Didn't you think that Zhuowen would win?
If Zhuowen wins the championship this time, then you lose. On the other hand, if my disciple Su Yang wins the championship, then I lose.
What do you think?
Do you dare to bet with me? "Grandmaster Huo Yun stared at Qiu Chou and coldly said.
"Interesting. What are the stakes then?" Qiu Chou's eyes flickered as he asked in an indifferent tone.
Seeing that Qiu Chou was slightly moved, Huo Yun sneered in his heart and said, "The wager is a grade four origin array. If our An Ding City loses, then this old man is willing to take out a grade four origin array. If you lose, then your Broken Rock City will have to take out another grade four origin array in addition to the one in the Spirit Curse Tower."
"What?
A Grade Four Origin Array? "
When Master Ku Ya and Ouyang Yuntu heard this, they immediately turned pale with fright. A Grade Four Origin Array was not an ordinary item. It was a priceless treasure. It was already very difficult for Broken Rock City to take out a Grade Four Origin Array in this Arcane Ceremony. Now, they actually had to add another Grade Four Origin Array to the wager. This price was too high.
"Senior Qiu, you can't agree to this bet!
Although Zhuowen seemed to be talented, his mental strength was only at Level Two Perfection. If he wanted to defeat Su Yang, who was at Level Three Advanced Success, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven!
Besides Su Yang, Su Qi and Zhuowen are also third-grade Arcana Masters. Zhuowen's chances of winning are too slim. "
Master Ku Ya's face was filled with anxiety. In his opinion, although Zhuo Wen's talent was not bad, he was too young, and his strength was definitely not comparable to Su Yang's. If he rashly agreed to this bet, they would definitely lose.
However, Qiu Chou shook his head slightly and said indifferently, "You guys are underestimating Zhuowen too much. This old man believes that this brat is not ordinary. Moreover, it is very likely that he will become the dark horse this time. Therefore, this old man will accept this bet."
Once Qiu Chou said that, Master Huo Yun's face immediately revealed a pleased smile. However, that smile on his already swollen face was even uglier than crying.
"This old man has never been humiliated like this before.
Since this old man isn't your match, then I'll use this bet to make you lose everything. "Grandmaster Huo Yun coldly glanced at Qiu Chou as he thought to himself.
On the other hand, master Kuya and Ouyang Yuntu's faces were rather ugly. With Qiu Chou's strength and status, they really did not dare to disobey him at all. Although they were extremely displeased by Qiu Chou's sudden agreement, they could only swallow their anger.
"Sigh!
Looks like I'll have to pay another Grade Four Origin Array! "
Master Kuya's expression turned even uglier when he thought about how their Arcane Guild would have to compensate for another Grade Four Origin Array after the Arcane Ceremony.
From the beginning, he didn't think that Zhuowen had the strength and foundation to win the championship. He even felt that it was a little difficult for him to enter the top ten.
…
On the Golden Peak Stage, the light silhouette that Master Ku Ya manifested had a grave expression on his face. He could not help but shift his gaze to the stone platform at the corner of the platform. On the stone platform, a young man with a delicate and pretty face was staring at the formula in his hand as he pondered about how to refine this Seal Breaking Crystal.
"Is it really possible for this kid to defeat Su Yang?
Even that girl Xuenai isn't confident. Can he do it? "The light figure secretly shook his head and muttered bitterly.
Boom!
At this time, colorful flames suddenly appeared on the bluestone platform on the platform. Obviously, many arcanists had finished reading the recipe on the stone platform and were now starting to refine the Origin Crystal.
Zhuowen wasn't in a hurry to start refining the Origin Crystal. Instead, he scanned the arcanists around him. He was surprised to find that most of the flames that the arcanists on the platform were using were only ordinary flames. This kind of ordinary flame was considered the lowest quality flame energy.
Above ordinary flames was the human flame, which was the human flame. When Zhuowen advanced to the Nirvana Stage, the Nirvana Demonic Flame that he subdued was a type of human flame. Above the human flame was the earth flame, which was the level of the Nine Heavens Thunder Inferno and the Three Thousand Azure Lotus Flame that Zhuowen possessed now.
Above the earth flame was the heavenly flame. It was said that the heavenly flame's power had reached a shocking level. Moreover, it also possessed a certain level of intelligence. The powerful heavenly flame could even burn an ultimate Emperor Stage cultivator to ashes in an instant!
Legend had it that there were even more powerful flames above the heavenly flame, but Zhuowen had never seen them before. However, he had heard from Xiao Hei that the more powerful flames above the heavenly flame had all gained sentience. Their intelligence was no different from a human's, and they could even cultivate and grow like human cultivators.
Only a small number of arcanists possessed powerful human flames. These arcanists who possessed human flames naturally became the focus of the other arcanists.
Ci!
A ray of silver light that resembled moonlight suddenly flickered at the center of the platform. Then, a silver flame that resembled a bright crescent blossomed.
"That's the Bright Crescent Forest Flame. It's an extremely powerful human flame. It's ranked in the top five among all the human flames!
I never thought that someone would possess such a powerful human flame. "
The moment the silver flame erupted, it completely attracted the attention of the other arcanists on the platform. For a moment, exclamations of surprise rose and fell. The arcanists who only possessed ordinary flames had envious looks in their eyes.
The owner of the Bright Crescent Forest Flame was a tall woman with a cold expression. When Zhuowen's gaze landed on this slender woman, he could not help but be stunned. This was because this cold woman was Master Ku Ya's disciple, Xue Nai.
Xue Nai's originally gloomy mood suddenly brightened up when she sensed the gazes directed at her. She lifted her jade-like neck slightly and could not help but focus her gaze on Su Yang, Zhou Yi, and Su Qi. She knew that her main competitors were the three people in front of her. The others were not even worth mentioning in her eyes.
As if sensing Xue Nai's somewhat hostile gaze, the beautiful Su Qi curled her lips and coldly muttered, "What's so great about that? You're not the only one with a human flame."
As she spoke, Su Qi stretched out her slender hand and moved her slender fingers rhythmically. With a hiss, five flames suddenly sprang out from her five fingers. What was surprising was that these five flames were shaped like autumn maple leaves. They had four corners and were blood-red in color.
"Hiss!
It's actually the Divine Maple Flame. This is a supreme grade human flame!
Its power is even above the Bright Crescent Forest Flame. It's a powerful flame that ranks in the top three among human flames!
I never thought that I would be able to see such a flame. "
When the other arcanists focused their attention on the flames on Su Qi's five fingers, they could not help but gasp. They could not help but stare at the maple leaf-like flames in a daze.
To arcanists, flames were like their limbs. Without the help of flames, it was impossible to refine crystals. The stronger the flame, the more nimble one's hands and feet would be. The speed and quality of refining crystals would greatly increase.
There was no arcanist who did not want to possess an extremely powerful flame.
Xue Nai also saw the Divine Maple Flame on Su Qi's fingers and her pretty face darkened. She originally thought that her Bright Crescent Forest Flame was extremely powerful among all human flames. She did not expect Su Qi to possess the even more famous Divine Maple Flame.
"Zhou Yi!
Let me take a look at your flames. I presume that with your identity as the number one disciple in Yeyang City, your master wouldn't be stingy when it comes to flames. "
Su Qi no longer paid attention to Xue Nai, who had an ugly expression not far away. Instead, she turned her head and looked provocatively at the silent Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi glanced indifferently at Su Qi and sneered. "Your provocation is really childish. Since you want to see my flame, I might as well show it to you."
With that, Zhou Yi stomped his foot, and the area several meters under his feet turned into a sea of fire. Then, Zhou Yi suddenly pinched the air with his right hand, and the surging flames in the sea of fire immediately revolved and condensed in his palm. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a three-meter-long halberd.
Clang!
Zhou Yi suddenly stood, and the halberd, which was taller than him, was immediately inserted into the ground, standing firmly in front of everyone. At the same time, a surge of heat immediately rushed over, causing the surrounding air to boil.
"Heavens!
It's actually the well-deserved number one human flame, the Sky Fire Halberd!
I didn't expect Zhou Yi to possess such a powerful human flame. It's really incredible. "
When the huge halberd, which was completely composed of flames, stood proudly in front of everyone, a trace of shock and sluggishness appeared on everyone's faces. The power of the Sky Fire Halberd was extremely powerful. It was said that its power was comparable to ordinary earth fire.
Xue Nai and Su Qi's beautiful eyes suddenly widened. They looked incredulously at Zhou Yi, who was standing proudly, and the fire halberd beside him with its tip pointing to the sky. They could not help but fall into a daze for a moment. Obviously, the fame of the Sky Fire Halberd was too great, which was why the two girls had such an intense reaction.
Even Su Yang, who had been calm and collected, could not help but frown slightly.
Zhou Yi did not take Su Qi's provocation seriously. Although Su Qi's mental strength was at the advanced third level, she had just entered the advanced third level not long ago. Her strength was not comparable to Zhou Yi, who had entered the advanced third level long ago.
What Zhou Yi really cared about was Su Qi's brother, Su Yang. Like him, Su Yang's mental strength had entered the advanced third level long ago. He was probably already at the peak of the advanced third level.
