Unfortunately, the second Sheer Cold still missed.
At that moment, Chandelure also recovered from the effects of Encore.
"Heat Wave!"
The moment Chandelure recovered, the French contestant hurriedly commanded his Chandelure to attack.
Delays could bring complications. He could not give his opponent another chance!

As footage appeared on the big screen, the commentator's voice followed.
"The reason Tang Yunqin's Ice Ninetales did not
