With this two-pronged approach, the power of this strike is not only faster, but also far surpasses that of the initial strike.

However, even so, Xiao Yan still showed no intention of making a move and stood there silently.

The speed at which the Bone Spirit Cold Flame condenses ice walls always allows them to appear in Yang Lie's attack path before he does.

Even when Yang Lie sometimes feinted and suddenly changed direction, the ice wall that he couldn't break through seemed to appear like a ghost in front of his attack trajectory.

Unable to break through it with a single blow, and unable to shake it off, Yang Lie's mentality began to crumble. In the end, he simply stopped adjusting his attack direction and frantically slashed at the thick ice wall blocking his way.

However, not all efforts will receive the response one imagines.

The thick, snow-white ice wall showed almost no signs of cracking under Yang Lie's attacks; instead, it grew higher and wider, becoming a colossal wall that Yang Lie could hardly cross.

With the enemy thrown into disarray, Xiao Yan naturally smiled slightly, feeling quite pleased.

The experiment just now clearly demonstrates that what he learned from alchemy is quite remarkable.

It should be noted that Yang Lie is a Six-Star Da Dou Shi. He not only cultivates excellent techniques, but also possesses an exquisite Magic Core Weapon. Furthermore, during his attack, he even seemed to have used Profound Tier Dou Technique.

Even so, Yang Lie was no faster than the speed at which the Bone Spirit Cold Flame condensed the ice wall.

At the same time, Yang Lie was unable to break through the ice wall formed by the Bone Spirit Cold Flame in one strike.

As for the current series of attacks...

To break this deadlock, Yang Lie either needs to shatter the ice wall formed by the Bone Spirit Cold Flame in one strike, or he needs to move with incredible speed.

If the former fails, then Yang Lie has no hope if he cannot achieve the latter.

Xiao Yan knew very well that his biggest weakness in anticipating his enemy's moves lay in speed. As long as he was one step faster than Yang Lie, the ice wall formed by the Bone Spirit Cold Flame would be an impenetrable fortress for Yang Lie.

This is also a challenge in anticipating the enemy's moves.

Of course, since Yang Lie's strength was not very high in the entire Dou Qi Continent, Xiao Yan knew that his rudimentary understanding needed constant refinement in order to be able to play a role in future battles.

Only by obtaining the Bone Spirit Cold Flame could Xiao Yan, with his strength as a Six-Star Dou Shi, so easily withstand the attack of a Six-Star Da Dou Shi.

Otherwise, although Xiao Yan could still sense something with his powerful soul force, he wouldn't be able to stand there so quietly.

With a casual wave of his hand, Xiao Yan put away the ice wall that Yang Lie had slashed over a hundred times, and looked warmly at Yang Lie, who was covered in sweat from exhaustion.

"Huff... I really underestimated you!" Yang Lie breathed a heavy sigh of relief, his gaze fixed on Xiao Yan, who seemed to have exerted little effort, and said in a deep voice, "You should know my other identity, Alchemist..."

"Once I start playing with fire seriously, your ice wall will melt in a flick of my finger!" With a proud look on his face, Yang Lie shook his hand, and a ball of crimson flame, as red as blood, instantly appeared.

Looking at the crimson flames surging from Yang Lie's hand, Xiao Yan frowned slightly. He hadn't expected that the Seventh Tier Beast Fire he possessed would actually come from the demonic beast Red Flame Lion.

Although both the Red Flame Lion and the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King are fire-attribute lion-type magical beasts, the Red Flame Lion has no wings or protective amethyst crystals, relying instead on the pure and domineering flames within its body.

Therefore, the Beast Fire of this magical beast is much stronger than that of a typical Seventh-Rank Magical Beast Fire.

After a slight shock, Xiao Yan regained his composure and said with a smile, "Make your move."

"It seems you don't understand the power of my Seventh Tier Beast Fire." Yang Lie clenched his fist suddenly, and a surge of fighting spirit burst forth from his body.

He had indeed underestimated Xiao Yan's ice-attribute Dou Qi before, but now it was Xiao Yan's turn to be careless!

As this fighting spirit erupted from his body, the flames on Yang Lie's fists began to flicker violently, and the intense heat they emitted instantly swept away the low temperature emanating from the ice wall.

Satisfied with the change in temperature caused by the flames on his fist, Yang Lie swung his flame-encased fist fiercely at Xiao Yan from a distance.

With a loud bang, the blood-red flames were instantly severed from Yang Lie's fist, and then the flames surged upwards against the wind.

With a loud bang, it suddenly exploded in mid-air, turning into countless fist-sized flames that densely enveloped all directions in front of Xiao Yan. However, the countless fire fists were only aimed at the position where Xiao Yan was standing.

Seeing Yang Lie's attack, the Fire Old Man in the center of the stands smiled slightly, "Young man Yang's Pill Fire Technique are truly impressive; he should be at the level of Third-Rank Alchemist."

Hu Gan slightly. The Pill Fire Technique is a unique attack skill of Alchemist, and its power is in no way weaker than Dou Technique.

Yang Lie activated his Seventh Tier Beast Fire, and could even split one part into many balls of flame for a formidable attack. Even some Dou Ling would likely suffer losses if they encountered him.

However, Yang Lie's opponent is Xiao Yan, who possesses the Bone Spirit Cold Flame.

Although his current strength is somewhat diminished, he may still have ways to cope.

Countless fiery fists came into view, and this time Xiao Yan didn't just gasp for breath, but for breath of hot air.

I never expected that Yang Lie could wield Beast Fire to such an extent. He truly deserves to be a genius who entered the Alchemy Department of the Jia Nan Academy.

With a thought, Xiao Yan 'Dou Qi Whirl began to spin rapidly, and the pure liquid energy inside was immediately flung out of the vortex, eventually transforming into a large amount of Dou Qi that circulated through his meridians.

As Xiao Yan swung his arm, a large amount of Dou Qi immediately formed a vortex, silently gathering the incoming fiery fist.

With a series of loud bangs, some of the fiery fists exploded under the swirling vortex. Although the fire waves that spread out were tightly controlled within the vortex's energy, Xiao Yan still frowned.

This Pill Fire Technique is indeed extraordinary. Even though his Void Vortex Force is now comparable to some Earth Tier Dou Technique, it is still somewhat difficult for him to make up for the gap in strength with Yang Lie.

However, many of the fire attacks were still under control. Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow, and a hint of joy appeared in his dark eyes.

In the blink of an eye, a large ball of Bone Spirit Cold Flame suddenly appeared within the blood-red flames. Its pale white light surged, instantly enveloping all the blood-red flames and slowly hovering between Xiao Yan's palms.

The two flames were so crudely condensed into a ball that a muffled thunderous sound immediately erupted from Xiao Yan's palm, followed by a sharp pain.

Xiao Yan gritted his teeth and manipulated the Flame Mantra Dou Qi with his ten fingers as if plucking flowers and flying leaves to refine the flame.

This is also an insight that alchemy gave Xiao Yan.

He viewed attacks as ingredients for alchemy, and the Heavenly Flames he used was a flame for refining; the final result of the refining process...

If refined, the result may seem quite calm, but after use, it can unleash a powerful energy similar to that contained in a elixir.

If the refining is poor, it will be a furnace that could explode, and whether it will explode on the enemy or on itself is hard to say.

Seeing Xiao Yan's actions, Hu Gan frowned, then gasped and widened his eyes.

It's important to understand that Heavenly Flames are inherently domineering and extremely destructive. While Beast Fire is a level below Heavenly Flames, it's still no pushover.

When Heavenly Flames merges with Beast Fire, it's like two extremely unstable and violent energies colliding. The final result, naturally, is a dazzling explosion unleashing a savage destructive force...

This isn't some genius, he's practically a little madman. Hu Gan's expression instantly turned serious as he closely watched Xiao Yan's condition.

What comforted him somewhat was that Xiao Yan's strength was currently not high, and the power he could conjure was limited. As long as he kept a close eye on things, there would be no danger.

With the neutralization of the Flame Mantra's Dou Qi qi and Xiao Yan's focused control, the ball of flame in his palm gradually condensed into a rough blood lotus the size of a palm.

Success? Hu Gan was greatly surprised. He hadn't expected that the two violent flames could be successfully fused together without any major incident under Xiao Yan's control.

"I wonder if it will be so lucky, since it's fused with two Heavenly Flames?" A bold idea popped into Hu Gan's mind.

Danger... Fire Old Man Huo looked at the Fire Lotus floating in Xiao Yan's palm with great surprise, somewhat unable to understand.

"Bone Spirit Fire Lotus, go!" Xiao Yan murmured softly.

As Xiao Yan's voice fell, the Heavenly Flames lotus suddenly flew out of his hand, transforming into a streak of light that shot towards Yang Lie like a meteor.

Under the watchful eyes of countless Heavenly Flames on the plaza, the Fire Lotus emitted a tremendous roar that not only resounded throughout the entire plaza but also shook the entire Outer Academy of the Jia Nan Academy.

A deafening roar, like a meteorite falling, resounded across the wide arena, and waves of intense heat spread out, causing everyone to tremble with fear.

The numerous powerful referees on the referee's stand immediately appeared around the square, working together to create a defensive shield that protected all the trainees.

However, due to the large number of people, the vast area, and the dispersion of power, the defensive shield that had been set up rippled under the impact of the fire waves, as if it might break at any moment.

Fortunately, the experienced referees cooperated well, and the defensive shield held up against the violent impact.

After the earth-shattering explosion, it was difficult to see the existence of the former arena. The solid plaza was riddled with thick cracks under the impact of that powerful energy.

Suddenly, Hu Gan appeared in front of Yang Lie, standing there stunned as if struck by lightning.

After a few breaths, Hu Gan suddenly trembled, as if his soul, which had flown away from the heavens, had re-entered his body, and he was resurrected, staring incredulously at Xiao Yan a hundred meters away.

Yang Lie stood stiffly behind Hu Gan, not daring to move even though a minute or two had passed since the explosion.
