However, before Feng Xiaotian could even breathe a sigh of relief, Xuan Hao's massive body remained upright amidst the raging flames.

He swayed slightly, and the overflowing blood and qi emanating from his body only trembled for a moment before the sea of ​​fire vanished without a trace, like smoke blown away by a gale.

"Is your warm-up over?" Xuan Hao looked at her, his tone indifferent. "If it's an attack of this level, you can leave now."

Huo Wu gritted her teeth and didn't refute.

After the probing just now, she has fully realized the gap between the two sides.

That was a chasm, an insurmountable barrier. Just as Xuan Hao said, her all-out probing couldn't even make the other party move a single step.

However, she cannot admit defeat yet.

She didn't expect to defeat the monster in front of her, but at the very least, she wanted to make it move!

If he just moves a single step, even half an inch, then her presence here today will have meaning!

Huo Wu lightly touched the ground with her toes, widening the distance between herself and Xuan Hao.

She raised her hands high, a resolute glint in her beautiful eyes, and her first, second, third, and fourth spirit rings lit up at the same time.

However, instead of releasing their individual soul skills, these four soul rings began to converge and merge towards the center under a violent pulling force.

In the VIP section, Ning Fengzhi's eyes narrowed: "This is... Fusion Ring?!"

"The Blazing Fire Academy actually has students with such talent." Emperor Xueye also showed surprise.

Ring fusion is a rare talent and skill.

By instantly concentrating the energy of all the spirit rings and integrating it into a single spirit skill.

This technique can exponentially increase the power of soul skills, defying common sense.

However, the cost is also extremely terrifying.

Not only will the soul power be instantly drained, but the enormous energy also far exceeds the caster's own level, and if not controlled carefully, it will cause a severe backlash.

This is Huo Wu's last trump card.

"Fire Dance, don't do anything reckless!"

Feng Xiaotian, sitting in the audience, was terrified and broke out in a cold sweat. He knew all too well the danger of the Fusion Ring.

boom!

The intense fire-attribute soul power was unleashed wildly.

Huo Wu's nearly 1.8-meter-tall body trembled slightly in the violent energy storm, and between her hands, a white-incandescent fireball rapidly condensed and expanded.

Incandescent color—that's a color that only appears at extremely high temperatures that exceed the limits!

But Huo Wu didn't stop. She used all her soul power and even her mental power without reservation to frantically compress these energies into the fireball.

"Move...move for me!" Huo Wu screamed frantically in her heart.

Xuan Hao stood quietly watching from a short distance away, his hands still in his pockets.

With his strength, interrupting Huo Wu would only take a moment.

But he didn't. He wanted to see just how far this proud redhead was capable of.

As soul power poured out wildly, the incandescent fireball was compressed to its limit, and the energy contained within it caused the air around the arena to begin to distort violently.

Huo Wu's face was ashen, her vision blurred from the exhaustion of both her soul power and mental strength. Her clothes were soaked with sweat and then instantly evaporated by the extreme heat.

She has reached her limit.

However, the enormous energy brought about by the fusion ring is still surging violently.

It was at this critical point that Huo Wu's heart skipped a beat.

The highly compressed, incandescent fireball suddenly trembled violently, and the originally pure energy began to become violent and chaotic.

Out of control!

This force has completely exceeded her control.

Huo Wu felt as if the fireball above her head had transformed into a mountain, so heavy that it almost crushed her spine.

Forget about throwing fireballs at Xuan Hao, she was now finding it incredibly difficult to even maintain her standing posture, and she was swaying precariously.

"Can't even throw it out...?"

A deep sense of despair flashed across Huo Wu's face, and a bitter feeling welled up in her heart.

Despite his all-out resistance, he ended up losing control of himself.

On this stage that has garnered attention across the entire continent, I have ultimately become a complete joke.

Huo Wu's vision went completely black, her hands fell limply to her sides, and she was completely exhausted. She simply closed her eyes and waited for the energy to explode and engulf her.

However, the expected explosion did not occur.

Even the scorching heat that almost baked her dry disappeared in an instant.

Huo Wu struggled to open her eyes, and exhausted, she knelt somewhat disheveled on the cold arena floor.

Above her head, a large, slender hand, glowing with a faint golden-red light, steadily held up the out-of-control incandescent fireball.

Xuan Hao had appeared in front of her in an instant, catching the energy bomb that was about to explode as easily as if it were a toy.

"You..." Huo Wu looked up, staring blankly at the tall man in front of her.

Xuan Hao glanced down at her, his tone full of speechlessness:

"Fine, I take back what I said before. You really have a death wish."

"I'll let you off the hook today because you're so brave and fearless."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Hao clenched his right hand, which was holding the fireball.

puff.

A slight, soft thud.

Amidst the stunned and dumbfounded gazes of tens of thousands, the molten ring incandescent fireball that had sent chills down everyone's spines and caused them to lose control of its highly compressed state was extinguished, just like an oil lamp that had been extinguished.

There were no earth-shattering explosions, no heatwaves that swept the entire venue, and no fancy special effects.

That extremely violent fire-attribute energy was silently annihilated and disappeared under Xuan Hao's grasp.

Huo Wu was completely dumbfounded.

She sat on the ground, her mouth slightly open, her mind blank.

That was a blow she wagered on all her pride and soul power, and almost killed herself!

But in front of this man, it was as easy as putting out a cigarette butt?

Before Huo Wu could recover from her shock, Xuan Hao's tall figure had already crouched down.

Followed by.

Snapped!

A loud and crisp flick on the forehead landed squarely on Huo Wu's fair forehead.

"what!"

Huo Wu cried out in pain, instinctively covering her forehead with both hands, tears almost streaming down her face from the pain.

Her originally pale and delicate face flushed bright red with embarrassment and anger.

"You're so young, don't be so impulsive, take it easy in everything you do."

Xuan Hao squatted down in front of her, flicked his finger as if to scare her, and casually lectured her:

"Health is the foundation of everything, safety comes first, don't you understand? You have a long life ahead of you, there are so many delicious foods and fun things in this world that you haven't enjoyed yet, why would you die for a stupid competition?"

"It's not shameful to lose to me. There isn't a single person my age in the entire continent who can withstand a punch from me yet."

Xuan Hao stood up, turned his head and glanced at the host Dou Dou, who was also stunned in mid-air:

"What are you all standing there for? Announce the results! Also, people from Blazing Fire Academy, come up here and carry your captain away right now."

After saying that, Xuan Hao put his hands back into his pockets, and in the deathly silence of the entire arena, he turned around and slowly walked down the passageway from the arena.

Huo Wu, kneeling in the center of the arena, covered her forehead and watched the tall, pale golden figure gradually disappear into the shadows. For some reason, the original unwillingness and humiliation in her beautiful eyes gradually turned into a complex ripple.

Chapter 343 The Art of Viewing Scenery: Xuan Hao: Because you're beautiful.

……

Xuan Hao put his hands in his pockets and strolled back to the Royal Fighting Team's private rest room.

As soon as he pushed open the door, he was met with several scrutinizing gazes.

Ning Rongrong, Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, and even Qian Renxue, who was disguised as Xue Qinghe, all looked at him with an indescribable strangeness in their eyes.

The atmosphere in the lounge was like a three-way trial.

"What's wrong?" Xuan Hao walked to the sofa, sat down with an air of authority, and took a sip of the cold tea on the table.

"You didn't even knock her down with one punch?"

Ning Rongrong narrowed her eyes and leaned closer. "Not only did you obediently accept her Ring Fusion skill, but you also flicked her on the head at the end? Tell me honestly, did you fall for her because of her long legs?"

"puff--"

Xuan Hao almost spat out his tea.

He put down his teacup, looking speechlessly at the group of women who were overthinking things:

"What did I say before I went on stage? I said if I hit her too lightly, you'd all start overthinking and getting jealous! So you're saying I have to slap her brains out for it to be normal?"

Xuan Hao slapped his thigh and made to stand up: "Fine, I'll go back to her right now. I'll give her one last punch and break her leg, just to liven things up for all you ladies!"

"Hey, sit down!"

Ning Rongrong pulled him back onto the sofa, coughing lightly to cover her embarrassment. "It's not that I meant it. I just felt... why were you so good-tempered this time? You didn't hit her, and you even took the initiative to save her."

Xuan Hao glanced at them with a strange expression.

"Did she hurt me?" Xuan Hao asked.

The crowd shook their heads.
