Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor

She couldn't understand how, as a fellow Fire-element Mage, the opponent could possibly plunder all of her Fire Magic Elements like a band of thieves the moment they both started incanting.

"Commander, the Deputy Captain seems a bit off," although not Mages themselves, the two members of the Wolf Fang Hunting Corps also felt that something was wrong with Huo Nu.

Although the Deputy Captain Huo Nu was a woman, she was famously known as the smartest within the group. The Wolf Fang Hunting Corps faced many crises during its development, all of which were resolved by Huo Nu with the help of Cang Lang.

Even in the face of great difficulties, Huo Nu had never lost her composure like today.

Naturally, Huo Nu didn't know that the Mage she encountered today wasn't just any ordinary Fire-element Mage, but the almost monstrously talented Yun Sheng.

A mage's Magic Power is influenced by many factors, but it is widely acknowledged that having more Magic Souls provides a higher affinity for magic and grants a certain priority in obtaining Magic Elements.

Although there was a gap in strength between Yun Sheng and Huo Nu, and Yun Sheng couldn't match Huo Nu's Magic Control Power, the advantage of her Five Elements Magic Soul compensated for this to a certain degree.

Moreover, her Magic Wand was branded with the mark of the Wind Elf, making her incantations smoother and faster than ordinary people.

But most crucially, today's contest was about Fire Magic.

Overconfidently, Huo Nu thought that she would have an absolute advantage in a duel of Fire Magic; however, Yun Sheng refused to make it easy for her, as she also bore the brand of the Elf Karma Fire.

The Elf Karma Fire, once one of the Four Great Nature Elf Kings and the most precious flame of the Fire Elf King, was known as the King of Ten Thousand Flames.

When Elf Karma Fire appears, all the flames on the Wuji Continent dim in comparison.

Not to mention the surrounding Fire Magic Elements, which, upon detecting the scent of the Elf Karma Fire, rushed over immediately, vying to curry favor.

If one were to describe the situation metaphorically, the current Huo Nu and Yun Sheng were like engaged in a tug-of-war.

With the Elf Karma Fire on her side, Yun Sheng had the strength of a hundred people, whereas Huo Nu was left with only herself; the outcome of the duel was determined from the very beginning.

"Impossible, almost all the Fire Magic Elements are rushing into her body," Huo Nu clenched her Red Jade Bone Wand, her fiery red nails digging into her palm, causing a throbbing pain.

This pain brought Huo Nu back to her senses slightly.

Impossible, an ordinary Great Magic Director couldn't possibly have such strong Magic Sensing Ability, could she be...

Huo Nu reconsidered, suddenly recalling something Yanyun had mentioned—that she was a doctor, possibly, the opponent used Forbidden Medicine or similar Elixirs to blindly enhance her Magic Sensing Ability for the sake of victory.

"I mustn't be intimidated by the opponent; the contest is still ongoing, and must continue, even if there are only a few Fire Magic Elements left, I can still chant the perfect Flame Burst," Huo Nu's expression became resolute, promptly adjusting her mentality and calming down, beginning to chant again.

The possession of abundant Magic Elements is one thing, but a wise Mage knows that using the minimal Magic Elements to chant the best magical effect is the smartest choice.

Mages generally have weak physiques; if Yanyun absorbed more Magic Elements than her body could handle to win, when releasing magic later, her body might not be able to withstand it.

The Fire Magic Element is one of the most dangerous among the Four Natural Magic types, full of violent energy.

Huo Nu once encountered a Mage who, after taking a similar Forbidden Medicine, was torn apart by the wildly violent Fire Magic Elements and incinerated into ashes.

"Yanyun, this is what you brought upon yourself," Huo Nu calmed down and continued her second incantation.

She quickly drew Fire Magic Elements from the surrounding environment.

Seeing Huo Nu return to her usual self, the two members of the Wolf Fang Hunting Corps also breathed a sigh of relief.

They believed that Deputy Captain Huo Nu would definitely be able to easily defeat that arrogant female Mage this time.

Ye Beiming and Tang Yu stood to one side, with Tang Yu's beady eyes anxiously watching Yun Sheng and Huo Nu. Right now, his feelings were quite conflicted; he both wanted Yun Sheng to win and didn't want her to win.

If she won, his life might be spared, but if she won, it would prove even more that she was superior to him.

Yun Sheng's appearance significantly threatened Tang Yu's position in Yun Residence.

"It would be best if she wins this match, and then let Mother invite people from Blood Hand Ditch to kill that annoying girl," Tang Yu thought maliciously.

While everyone was waiting, Huo Nu and Yun Sheng completed their incantations one after the other.

"Intermediate Magic, Fire Flame Burst!" Huo Nu, who finished chanting first, had two soul stones light up on his Red Jade Bone Wand, one of eighty years and the other of two hundred years.

The configuration of Huo Nu's Magic Wand was indeed quite impressive.

From the Magic Wand, several Fire Flame Bursts shot out like streaks of meteors, booming across the sky and exploding on the surface of the river.

Immediately, the river surface splashed with water, and the stones on the riverbed were also overturned by the formidable impact of the Fire Flame Burst.

"One, two, three..." Liu Hao and Zhou Quan couldn't contain themselves and leaped forward, counting the number of Fire Flame Bursts.

In total, there were fifteen magical Fire Flame Bursts, and the river water was blasted up several meters high, looking as if it had encountered a stormy sea surface.

Fifteen counts, not the highest in number, but barely passable.

Huo Nu muttered to herself, shifting her gaze back to Yun Sheng, only to see Yun Sheng also waving her Mysterious Bone Wand.

As the wand was raised, no Fire Flame Burst appeared as expected.

Could it be that after all her chanting, she didn't even successfully cast a basic Fire Flame Burst?

A jolt went through Tang Yu's heart, nearly bursting out cursing, She must be doing it on purpose, trying to kill him on purpose!

Just when everyone was astonished, a piercing screech descended from the sky.

Everyone instinctively looked up, only to see a fiery bird in the sky spreading its blazing wings. With a tail like a peacock's, the flames formed feathers distinctively clear in their texture.

"Is that? Flame Morph?" Huo Nu couldn't help but exclaim.

The firebird chirped crisply, then, with a flick of its head and tail, the entire bird transformed into a fireball.

As the fireball tumbled, hundreds of Fire Feathers fell from the sky.

Those feathers, upon reaching mid-air, turned into fist-sized Fire Flame Bursts.

"Boom, boom, boom--" Speaking was slower than the action, numerous feather-shaped Fire Flame Bursts struck the surface of the water simultaneously.

This poor river, which had just managed to absorb fifteen Fire Flame Bursts a while ago, suddenly encountered the magic-crazed Yun Sheng.

The hundreds of Fire Feathers turned into Flame Bursts, like a machine gun sweeping across the area, causing the river surface to splash with waves, and the water vapor that was stirred up was vaporized into white steam by the high temperature of several hundred degrees.

The riverbed was also a field of mud splashing, countless pieces of broken rock smashed into dust.

The fiery bird in the sky disappeared, and before the dense steam and smoke in front of them had even dissipated, several people on the riverbank, as if petrified, hadn't even noticed that they were soaked with mud and water vapor.

"Improved Fire Flame Burst, Nine Heavens Phoenix Explosion," Yun Sheng also wiped the sweat from her forehead and sighed.
