The opponents had changed, but the rules of battle had not. It was still one-on-one, each side seeking out an opponent they recognized.
Long Suifeng naturally went up against the voluptuous beauty—Xuan Fengwu. The Vermilion Bird was also known as the Mysterious Bird, which was why the Vermilion Bird ancestor had chosen Xuan as the clan surname. Like the Dragon Clan, only clansmen capable of assuming a complete Vermilion Bird form could bear the surname "Xuan."
That was not the point. The point was that Vermilion Birds belonged to fire; every one of them was an expert at controlling flames. And Xuan Fengwu was even more formidable in this regard—her awakened constitution rune was an Extreme Fire Sigil!
