“Do you seriously think you can take on us two at the same time? You might not even stand a chance against me alone,” Heidi walked past Mo Fan and looked at him in the eyes.
Mo Fan looked at Heidi and said with a smile, “I’m the kind of person that likes some attention! But don’t you worry, I never bother doing something that I can’t do.”
“Are you kidding me? Why would I be worried about you?” Heidi shot back coldly, and headed to the other side of the dueling ground.
Mo Fan stood in the center. In front of him was the Queen of Dimensions, Heidi. Her Dimensional Magic could clearly pose a great threat to him.
Heidi did not understand where Mo Fan had gotten the confidence to fight them both at the same time from. The Casas’ henchman was not just a mere decoration. Heidi could tell that the man’s strength was more or less on par with hers.
Perhaps some people were truly reckless enough to dare offend anyone and say any words as they pleased. Heidi strongly believed Mo Fan was going to get himself killed!

“Make sure you record it, it’s a battle for the dignity of our Pearl Inst.i.tute,” Professor Zheng said to s.h.i.+ Junsheng.
s.h.i.+ Junsheng smacked his lips and murmured, “More like the battle of making a fool of himself. We already saw the fight between him and Heidi the other day, and now he has to worry about an expert from the Casas, too…”
“Just do as I say, what’s with all the nonsense!?” Professor Zheng harrumphed coldly with a displeased look.
s.h.i.+ Junsheng quickly forced a smile. He glanced at Mo Fan and muttered something under his breath as he began to record…

Heidi was standing around a hundred and fifty meters in front of Mo Fan, while the Casas’ henchman was around a hundred and fifty meters behind him. Headmistress Perry was reluctant to waste any more time on the farce. She declared the start of the battle without giving them any time for preparations.
“I shall secure the advantage by striking preemptively!” Heidi did not want to fight the unfair battle, she just wanted to get it done as soon as possible. Her Sound Element broke the silence of the place and targeted Mo Fan’s mind directly. She did not want to give the man any chance to use his magic.
Sound Disturbance!
Even though it was only the Basic Spell of the Sound Element, it was extremely useful regardless of the target’s cultivation level. It disrupted the opponent’s tempo when channeling magic, securing a huge advantage for the caster!
Heidi was the first to strike, using her Sound Magic to disturb Mo Fan, making it difficult for him to use his magic.
Mo Fan stood still while the Sound Disturbance was making noise in his mind. He slowly closed his eyes, as if he was enjoying some music.
The Sound Disturbance was noisy, like the shrieks of demons or loud clanks and crashes. The target might even hear strange bewitching words, making it difficult to focus. It would severely slow down the target’s channeling speed and raise the difficulty of joining the Stars. It was different from the Psychic Element’s Psychic Impact, which aimed to break the connections between the Stars right away…
Mo Fan had to admit that Faerun Waterfall was indeed a very useful trial. It had improved Mo Fan’s resistance toward the Sound Element significantly, and together with the mental attack from Headmistress Perry, Mo Fan’s mental resistance had improved by a huge margin!
“Sound Disturbance of this level is no longer effective against me!” Mo Fan suddenly opened his eyes. They were oddly black; they even reflected a dark glow into Heidi’s eyes.
Heidi saw the calm look in Mo Fan’s eyes. She was quite surprised at how Mo Fan’s mental strength had improved by so much in just a few days.
“Giant’s Stomp!” Heidi made her move again. This time, she decisively used the s.p.a.ce Magic instead.
The Giant’s Stomp was a modification of the s.p.a.ce Element’s Intermediate Spell. An outline resembling the huge foot of a giant appeared above Mo Fan. Snow floating in the air outlined the force there!
The force suddenly descended heavily, like an invisible giant stomping his foot. The thin layer of snow covering the dueling ground collapsed and scattered instantly. Mo Fan seemed to remain at the same spot as the ground collapsed. Some of the people thought he had disappeared with the collapsed ground.
Heidi could not find Mo Fan, yet she heard something vibrating vigorously close to her while the temperature rose rapidly.
“You were controlling water during the last fight at the waterfall, so I wasn’t able to use my Fire Magic. This time, I shall let you witness the true strength of my Fire Element!” Mo Fan showed up twenty meters behind Heidi out of nowhere.
Heidi quickly turned around, her eyes emitting strong rays that stabbed at Mo Fan like thousands of swords.
It was a Will attack. Mo Fan’s Will was not strong enough to achieve such a feat. It was deadlier than many Advanced Spells!
Mo Fan seemed fearless. He roared loudly, “Break!”
Three different Soul-grade Flames appeared simultaneously around Mo Fan while the faint silhouette of Flame Belle Empress extended from his back, cloaking Mo Fan in a burning outfit, like an armored mantle. The Fire Magic in the area surged toward Mo Fan. The thin layer of snow within a kilometer instantly vaporized!
Three Soul-grade Flames meant three different Domains. When a Domain was strong enough, it could greatly suppress the opponent’s mind. A single Domain might not be strong enough to affect Heidi’s Will, but when three imperious Fire Domains were stacked on top of one another, it was strong enough to shatter even her Will!
Heidi immediately felt like she had fallen into a furnace as his burning roar struck. Her skin started to blister from the heat, while her blood dried up immediately.
Heidi was a little intimidated, and her Will weakened greatly. The swords that she had Summoned with her Will dissipated greatly. The remaining Will did land on Mo Fan, but it was nowhere enough to break through Mo Fan’s fierce flames.
“I can definitely use some practice!” Mo Fan shouted wildly.
The Meteor Scarlet had already taken form, meaning that Mo Fan was finally able to utilize the true strength of the three Soul-grade Flames. Mo Fan was not afraid of facing Mu Xumian, who was a Super Mage, back in the little town. Why would he be afraid of two peak Advanced Mages?
Even if they could pose a threat to a Super Mage by joining hands, Mo Fan would have no problem taking them on at once!
“Control!” Mo Fan clenched his fists. The brown Calamity Fire rose like a tiny but fierce volcano. Its flames spread across half the dueling ground.
The Calamity Fire gave Mo Fan an insane amount of control over the Fire Magic!
The Calamity Fire’s strength was five times that of normal fire. It might not be as violent as the Lightning Tyrant that was able to amplify the Lightning Element sixfold, or any other Soul-grade Flame with the same level of amplification as the Lightning Tyrant, but the Calamity Fire’s true strength was in its extraordinary control over Fire Magic. The magic particles were extremely obedient to its orders, making him able to cast Fire Spells in all forms!
Mo Fan’s control over the Fire Element and his ability to transform Fire Spells was comparable to a Super Mage when under the effects of the Calamity Fire while he was possessed by Flame Belle Empress. The Fire Magic would turn into soldiers fighting for their emperor, allowing Mo Fan to utilize the Fire Magic freely during a battle!
It was the greatest strength of the Calamity Fire!
“Feral Ardent!”
The Ardent Sunset was 4.5 times stronger than normal fire. Its damage amplification was normal among the Soul-grade Fire Seeds, but Mo Fan never thought the Ardent Sunset was weak, as its true strength was its ability to burn vigorously!
It was the bane of insect-type creatures. Not only would its flames set the sh.e.l.ls and skins of an insect on fire immediately, the flames would continue to grow stronger as they burned!
When the coverage of the flames was twice its initial area, its damage would double, too!
Therefore, both the Sandstorm Demon Locusts and the Blue Moths were fuel to the Ardent Sunset when they clumped together. Their numbers only allowed the flames to spread further and quicker. When the Ardent Sunset was burning ten times, eleven times, twelve times, or stronger than normal fire, how could those disastrous insects that were so deadly in numbers possibly live for more than a second before it?
It was the nature of the Ardent Sunset, the ability to spread from a small portion of the sky toward the horizon. Mo Fan had yet to discover the limit of the Ardent Sunset’s strength!
“Meteor Spread!”
The last Domain was the Meteor Scarlet!
The Meteor Scarlet’s damage was 5.5 times that of ordinary fire. Its temperature was extremely high, and its damage was very close to Mo Fan’s Lightning Tyrant.
Since Mo Fan had claimed it when it was still a Primitive Soul-grade Flame, the Domain it refined and the effects of its flames were perfectly compatible with the Calamity Fire and the Ardent Sunset!
The longer its flames traveled, the greater their spread was. Both the Sky-Flame Funeral and Fiery Fist were projectiles, so their area would significantly increase during their flight, making it impossible to dodge them!
Obviously, if the three Soul-grade Flames were given to three different people, they were only slightly above average. They were not really that remarkable…
However, when the three Soul-grade Flames were gathered on the same person, it was terrifying for even Mo Fan to estimate the damage of his spell when the effects of the Soul-grade Flames were combined!
Imagine the Sky-Flame Funeral falling from high up in the sky. As the flames burned through the air, the spell’s initial coverage of two hundred meters square would eventually increase to four hundred meters square!
The bigger the coverage, the greater the damage of the spell under the effects of the three Soul-grade Flames, especially the Feral Ardent effect from the Ardent Sunset. A single casting of Sky-Flame Funeral could easily end up as a spectacular burning swamp once it landed on the ground!
Mo Fan had been spending a lot of time experimenting on how the three Soul-grade Flames could work together effectively. He had finally achieved some satisfying results lately. Why wouldn’t he let these people have a taste of the Fiery Tyrant?
