Flame Fiend
"How is it? Although it's not as good as your Second Soul Skill, it's still not bad, right?"
Huo Wu suddenly stopped explaining. She seemed quite satisfied with her Second Soul Skill.
"It is a very powerful Soul Skill. Moreover, it often has unexpected effects when facing enemies at close to medium range."
Moreover, the whip can not only be used for attack, but also to entangle opponents. Depending on the user's skill, it can play an even greater role. Quan Yi calmly analyzed Huo Wu's Second Soul Skill.
"However, your Second Soul Skill has an even bigger secret, doesn't it?"
He had personally witnessed the horrific state of Huo Wu's opponent; that effect certainly wasn't caused by simply high-temperature flames.
"That's right, my Second Soul Skill is also imbued with a kind of Flame Fiend. Once the body is injured by the Flame Whip, the Flame Fiend attached to the whip will invade the enemy's body."
Similar to Toxin, the Flame Fiend, once it invades the body, will cause the opponent intense pain and itching.
Moreover, the Flame Fiend will gradually spread to other parts of the body.
This Flame Fiend is very difficult to dispel; even if one tries to suppress the pain with Soul Power, the Flame Fiend will continue to drain the opponent's Soul Power.
After hearing this, Quan Yi suddenly realized that this was the essence of Huo Wu's Second Soul Skill.
Flame Fiend, there is such a terrifying thing.
The screams of Zi Ye still echo in Quan Yi's ears.
"Your whip is like a long snake covered in deadly venom. With this Flame Fiend, the danger of your Second Soul Skill has increased to another level."
What exactly is this Flame Fiend?
Fire and poison, two absolutely incompatible things, are combined together, giving people a peculiar feeling.
"Flame Fiend is a variant of the Fire Element. However, it possesses the sticky, burning, and spreading properties of the Fire Element. But ultimately, it's not a Toxin; it's simply Fire Element that can penetrate deep into the opponent's body," Huo Wu explained.
The scene where Huo Wu walks up to Zi Ye and sucks out the "Toxin" with her hands is actually just her extracting the Fire Element from Zi Ye's body.
If it really is Toxin, there's really nothing she can do to eliminate it.
"With such a powerful Soul Skill, the Soul Beast you absorbed must also be very powerful, right?" Su Ling'er exclaimed.
"Auntie, we have to thank Xiao Yi for this. Xiao Yi, you should be able to guess."
"It should be the Scarlet Flame Serpent," Quan Yi said confidently.
"That's right."
Scarlet Flame Serpent, Fire-attribute Soul Beast.
It is an extremely ferocious and cold-blooded Soul Beast.
The Scarlet Flame Serpent's innate skill is the ability to inject concentrated Fire Element into its prey's body through its teeth.
When the Fire Element enters the body, it causes intense pain and continuously burns the internal flesh.
The Scarlet Flame Serpent simply watches its prey die in agony, then swallows it whole.
"Our original target was another Soul Beast, but something unexpected happened to the target Soul Beast. Just when we were preparing to turn back and make other plans, we discovered the Scarlet Flame Serpent."
Based on Xiao Yi's description, we determined that its age is approximately seven hundred.
Moreover, it also met my requirements, so I absorbed this Soul Ring.
"If Xiao Yi hadn't written down the method for determining the age in his notebook, I might have missed this Soul Beast."
Few Spirit Master know about the Scarlet Flame Serpent, because it has been on the verge of extinction for a long time.
It is very rare and uncommon, and it is not a mainstream choice favored by current Fire-attribute Spirit Master.
Therefore, even if some people know that it exists, they may not know how to determine its age.
Quan Yi had also stumbled upon this information in an old book in the Library.
Originally, because it did not meet my absorption criteria, I did not record it in my notebook.
But while compiling the list of Soul Beast for Huo Wu, he suddenly remembered that the Scarlet Flame Serpent was perfect for Huo Wu to absorb. So, he returned to the Library and reread the ancient books.
And he recorded it.
I never expected that Huo Wu would actually encounter such a rare and powerful Soul Beast.
It seems his efforts were not in vain.
"I'm glad I could help."
Learning about Huo Wu's Second Soul Skill was a great gain for Quan Yi. Being able to witness Flame Fiend's unique ability firsthand was also a great inspiration for him.
"Next, would you like to participate in the two-on-two Soul Fight?" Su Ling'er suggested to Quan Yi and Huo Wu.
"I'm fine with it, but wouldn't it be too conspicuous if Xiao Wu teamed up with me?" If he were to go on stage, he would have to change into his One-Punch Man outfit.
Quan Yi is aware of his own popularity; if Mai Huo Wu teams up with him, they will definitely receive a lot of attention.
"Xiao Wu can also participate in the competition wearing a mask, just like you. What do you say, Xiao Wu, do you want to give it a try?" Su Ling'er was inexplicably enthusiastic.
Huo Wu glanced at Quan Yi, clearly somewhat tempted, but she still shook her head and declined Su Ling'er's invitation.
"I'm sorry, Auntie, I used up too much Soul Power in the battle just now. Also, I need to meet up with my brother later, so I'm afraid I won't have the chance this time." Huo Wu also said with a hint of regret.
While the Ring Fusion skill brings powerful burst damage, it also consumes Soul Power at an astonishing rate.
She doesn't have much Soul Power left, so she won't be able to participate in the two-on-two Soul Fight today.
"It's alright, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, no need to rush." Su Ling'er also felt regretful.
"Okay, I'll be going now. See you tomorrow." After saying goodbye to Huo Wu Quan Yi and Su Ling'er, Huo Wu headed towards another Branch Soul Arena.
Huo Wu came with her brother Huo Wushuang today, but Huo Wu decisively abandoned Huo Wushuang and ran to Quan Yi's place.
However, the two of them had to go home together, so there was no other way but for Huo Wu to part ways with Quan Yi.
"See you tomorrow. Give my regards to your brother." Quan Yi waved goodbye.
Come to think of it, Quan Yi realized that he had never encountered Huo Wushuang in the Soul Fight Arena.
Even before he reached the Soul Master Realm, Quan Yi had visited Huo Wushuang multiple times and obtained a lot of meaningful data from him.
Huo Wushuang's first impression is that he has a very arrogant personality, but in fact, his heart is more passionate than anyone else's.
He would do his best for his friends and family; he was a very caring older brother.
Huo Wushuang, a fifth-grader, is now a level 24 Soul Grandmaster. Although he is slightly inferior to Huo Wu and Quan Yi in terms of talent, he is considered one of the best among his peers.
After parting ways with Huo Wu, Quan Yi went to watch a Soul Fight match as usual. Today, he was lucky; he chose the team with a multiplier of three and won.
Besides witnessing Huo Wu's new Soul Skill and Ring Fusion, Quan Yi's biggest gain today was that his Soul Fight level successfully upgraded from the most basic Iron Soul to Bronze Soul.
Unfortunately, the rules of the Great Soul Arena stipulate that winning streak points can only be calculated uniformly at the end of the month.
Today is the beginning of the month, so you'll have to wait another month to get the Bronze Soul Badge.
Fortunately, Quan Yi's goal is not Bronze Soul, but Silver Soul. There's no need to rush.
