Fire God's Fury Reappears

"He actually knows formations, is he even human?" 

"Just now, he was running around like a chicken on the stage. It turns out he was secretly setting up formation nodes!" 

"Kuang Qing is in big trouble!" 

*** 

The joy of the crowd, who originally thought they had the victory in their hands, disappeared in an instant. Lin Yang, relying on the Flame Ascension Formation, unexpectedly turned the tables! 

The officials who had been enthusiastically toasting Qin Wufeng a moment ago were now standing there awkwardly, their expressions embarrassed. 

But Qin Wufeng suddenly became lively, grabbing a wine cup, pulling an old man over, and shouting, "Isn't this Chief Minister Lu, come, come and see how beautiful the fireworks set off by our Yuan Sword Sect disciple are." 

He felt extremely comfortable inside: 'Lin Yang, good job! I finally feel content to see the blackened faces of these bastards who just forced me to drink under mocking glances. I swear, none of you will have it easy!' 

Qin Wufeng sneered, "Ah, I heard that you scholars need to drink to liven up while composing poetry! Come on, Chief Minister Lu, I toast to you. If you can't come up with one, we'll have another cup, and we'll keep going until you do. Don't be polite! Get more wine!" 

The officials were so desperate that they felt like crying. They deeply regretted why they had humiliated this old man just now. What sins did they commit in their previous lives to be mocked like this without any way out of it? 

And that damn Kuang Qing, why did he fall into someone else's trap when he clearly had the upper hand? 

Han Yan'er and the others anxiously looked at the stage; Mo Qingkuang was really in a disadvantaged situation! 

The plot's reversal was too surprising; Lin Yang was once again relentlessly attacking Mo Qingkuang. 

This time, Mo Qingkuang wasn't as relaxed as before. 

The Flame Ascension Formation was almost everywhere. Upon contact, it would burn his skin. Although Mo Qingkuang was fast, he had to dodge obstacles during evasion, naturally slowing him down. 

As the controller of the Flame Ascension Formation though, Lin Yang didn't have such concerns; he just charged forward recklessly, as it posed no harm to him. 

In this way, Mo Qingkuang's disadvantage grew, gradually falling into a difficult situation where Lin Yang relentlessly pursued and attacked. 

"Ancestor, ancestor! What should I do!" Mo Qingkuang anxiously cried out in his heart. 

Finally, he snapped Mo Fan out of his trance caused by losing control over the situation. 

After carefully observing Mo Qingkuang's current situation, Mo Fan's mind raced. 

'I don't know where the formation's eye is. I've only written the name; I don't know how to set up formations! What do I do? What do I do? Can we only confront him head-on? But how can we secure victory in a direct confrontation?' 

"Try to dodge as much as you can for now, and I'll think carefully," Mo Fan sighed, pondering deeply. 

At this point, what was Lin Yang's weakness? 

Speed? Already compensated by the Flame Ascension Formation. 

Strength? After the tempering of the Hell Training Technique, his physique rivaled that of a martial master with an earth attribute constitution. 

Attack power? Martial artists with a fire attribute constitution were renowned for their ferocious attacks. Unless it was a mutated constitution, few could match them. 

'Why did I create such a perfect protagonist? What do I do now?' 

Mo Fan fell into endless distress. 

Mo Qingkuang desperately dodged, and the temperature on the stage increased as the Flame Ascension Formation continued. In the process of evading, several places on his body were burnt, and his face was darkened by the smoke. The scent of charred clothes slowly wafted through the air. 

"Kuang Qing, come on!" 

"Kuang Qing, why don't you dare to face Lin Yang head-on?" 

"Kuang Qing, if you lose here, you'll be letting down the Tianxuan Empire! You must win!" 

The crowd watched anxiously and worriedly! Kuang Qing, who was in a good position before, was now in a precarious situation. 

The leisurely stroll was gone, replaced by a state of embarrassment under Lin Yang's fierce attacks. 

Han Yan'er's eyes were filled with complex emotions, and her heart was full of deep sighs. 

Kuang Qing had done his best; he had found the best way to deal with Lin Yang and had taken advantage of it in the early stages. But the opponent had exceptional talent... 

No, along with exceptional talent, the opponent had even cultivated the art of formations. He had distracted Kuang Qing's attention by pretending to be fooled, then secretly arranged various formation nodes on the stage. It was truly astonishing. 

If they knew that Lin Yang not only practiced formations but also was an alchemist, they wouldn't know how to feel. 

Referee Zheng Tao also sighed inwardly. 

Looking at Mo Qingkuang's eyes, he couldn't help but feel a bit of pity. 

Kuang Qing's talent was evident, and his combat style was exceptionally intelligent. 

But what could he do when Lin Yang's talent was even better? 

Looking up at the elevated platform, where Qin Wufeng enjoyed drinking and confidently persuaded others to do the same, there was a sense of sadness in his heart. 

*** 

"I've figured it out, Qingkuang, stop here!" Just as Mo Qingkuang was exhausted, not knowing what to do, Mo Fan's voice rang out like celestial music. 

"Stop here and gather your strength! Make a posture as if you're going to fight him to the death!" 

Mo Qingkuang stopped as advised, and a green light circulated around him as he began to gather energy. 

Seeing this, Lin Yang also halted his steps, a sneer playing on his lips. "Are you finally desperate?!" 

"Lin Yang, you forced me into this!" Mo Qingkuang gritted his teeth. His face, already darkened by the divine-grade makeup art, turned even darker under the roasting flames. Some cracked skin peeled off, revealing fair skin beneath the foundation. 

Lin Yang chuckled coldly. "I let you live by chance last time. This time, I will do my best to settle the score and end it once for all!" 

He rapidly formed seals with both hands, and the true qi rapidly circulated within him through the divine-grade technique for swift recovery. The fire elements in the entire arena became exceptionally chaotic, condensing behind Lin Yang into a massive giant shadow. 

"Fire God's Fury! Lin Yang is using his ultimate move!" The crowd displayed shocked expressions. 

The natural phenomena produced by the heavenly-ranked martial skill Fire God's Fury was unforgettable since its appearance yesterday. 

"Ah, if Qingkuang can dodge for a bit longer, maybe he can delay the defeat. However, stopping and facing the Fire God's Fury head-on is something even a fourth-rank martial master like Tian Sheng couldn't withstand!" someone sighed in the crowd. 

"What's the use of dodging? In the current situation, hiding only delays the inevitable and also consumes stamina and true qi for nothing. It's better to stop now than fighting desperately!" another argued. 

*** 

Everyone stuck to their opinions, but the ultimate speculation remained the same: Kuang Qing would lose. Ultimately, it was just a matter of whether the loss would be graceful or ugly.
