"Water and fire in one body, and able to use spells beyond his level, Old Zhang, I think you've found a gem." Zhang Xu said to Zhang Yu.

"No, this gem has nothing to do with me; I just care a bit more. You should know, I never taught him the Firebird Spell or the Icebird Spell." Zhang Yu shrugged, saying helplessly.

"Hehe, this kid has contributed a lot, so it's not surprising that he learned these two spells. Don't worry so much, how likely do you think he will win? I've bet a lot, give me some confidence." Zhang Xu asked.

"You've already bet so much, and you still need my confidence?" Zhang Yu rolled his eyes.

"Haha, that's true. Because I won less last time, I hope for a bigger surprise today." Zhang Xu scratched his head and laughed.

"Bang! Bang!" "Crack!" The sudden explosion and ice formation on the stage pulled their attention back.

Zhang Longao was very angry and disheveled. The Firebird Spell, which can only be cast at the 8th level of the Qi Condensation stage, and the Icebird Spell, which can only be cast at the 9th level, were not ordinary spells. Although it wasn't difficult to counter them with the Wood Thunder Seal, the Firebird Spell had a significant explosive force, and the Icebird Spell could freeze the blood and qi.

After a series of attacks, his body felt as if it had been scorched by fire, and even his high-quality magic robe had several places burned through, reducing his protective power. The cold from the Icebird was slowly seeping into his body, making the flow of spiritual energy sluggish.

What was most infuriating was that the kid on the opposite side was completely at ease, not even a drop of sweat on his face. In contrast, he was in a terrible state.

"Four rounds, Brother Zhang, why don't we call it a draw?" Chu He said from a distance of several dozen feet, with several Firebirds and Icebirds flying around him, looking very relaxed.

In fact, he was inwardly cursing: a draw? No way, who will give me my spirit stones?

The provocation quickly took effect:

"Damn you! Today I'll break your dog legs." Provoked by Chu He, Zhang Longao roared again.

"Shh!" Hearing Zhang Longao's words, the audience began to boo.

He seemed like a wild man from the deep mountains; such behavior would be booed even by true disciples, let alone a mere personal disciple.

"Oh, I misjudged him. I didn't expect him to be so rude." A female cultivator threw herself into her senior brother's arms, looking sad.

"Sigh, Sister, you need to be more discerning. There are few people as honest and refined as your senior brother." The senior brother, who had long been drooling, quickly took the opportunity to hug her.

"Zzz!" Zhang Longao released a whip from his storage ring, about ten feet long.

The whip, made of an unknown material, was as thick as a walnut, entirely green, and covered with lightning-patterned runes. It writhed like a long snake, generating countless electric threads, making it extremely eye-catching.

"Such momentum, could it be a treasure-grade weapon?" A sudden voice from an attendant said.

"Even if it's not a treasure-grade weapon, it's not far off. With proper nurturing, it should be able to reach the treasure stage." Another instructor added.

Seeing him release such a high-quality magic weapon, Chu He felt a bit uneasy. Unfortunately, he had better magic treasures but was limited by his cultivation level and couldn't use them.

"Take my Green Wood Lightning Whip!" Zhang Longao, holding the whip, lashed out.

Chu He casually took a few mid-grade Yuan Cultivation Pills and directed the Icebirds and Firebirds to attack. A flash of cold light, and a circular blade appeared, whistling and transforming into a ring of light, slashing toward Zhang Longao.

With both sides' magic weapons appearing, the real action began. Everyone held their breath, no longer cheering, but watching intently.

However, Zhang Longao's Green Wood Lightning Whip was indeed powerful. One lash swept away the Icebirds and Firebirds, turning them into smoke in explosions. Another lash sent the circular blade to the ground, severing its connection with Chu He.

With one move, Zhang Longao established his dominance, sweeping everything away. He was so elated that he grinned and pounced: let's see what you have left!

Unfortunately, his strength wasn't enough to fully unleash the power of the Green Wood Lightning Whip. If he had sufficient innate true energy, the whip could transform into a lightning snake several dozen feet long, reaching its target in an instant.

Of course, if the treasure-grade weapon's full power were unleashed, Chu He would have no choice but to surrender, as all his tricks would be useless.

"Whoosh!" Suddenly, a strong suction force came from the ground, causing Zhang Longao to fall, and his lightning strike lost some accuracy. Chu He took the opportunity to dodge.

Earth Magnetic Spell? Zhang Longao was startled, seeing a pale yellow spell light fly toward his feet.

"Ugh! Spell stacking?" Zhang Longao immediately felt the pressure on his body increase.

Taking advantage of this respite, Chu He reorganized his attack. Icebirds and Firebirds emerged as he dodged, and he also cast Clear Wind Spell and Yellow Armor Spell on himself.

Zhang Longao suddenly felt dizzy and disoriented: what kind of monster is this? His spiritual energy is so abundant, not inferior to mine, and he can cast spells and fight at the same time without any signs of exhaustion. Is he really at the 7th level of the Qi Condensation stage?!

Throughout the battle, Chu He used the Icebird Spell and Firebird Spell, which are quite draining, continuously without showing any signs of weakness. If it were Zhang Longao, even with the support of good pills, he couldn't do it, which is why he was so surprised.

If Zhang Longao knew Chu He's true situation, he wouldn't be so surprised. Now, the Cleansing Fire in Chu He's body was running at full power, purifying the impurities from the pills he had taken, making the absorption efficiency much higher. This level of consumption could still be sustained. Moreover, Chu He's spiritual energy was extremely pure, and the efficiency of forming seals was very high, requiring less consumption, making it not difficult to achieve this.

In fact, Zhang Longao overlooked one point: Chu He's technique for casting spells was extremely refined, not inferior to even the best spell users at the innate stage.

Among the audience, there were instructors and disciples skilled in talismans who were highly impressed by his spell-casting technique, already comparing it with their own in detail.

Zhang Longao broke free from the Earth Magnetic Spell, and his spiritual energy surged, extending the Green Wood Lightning Whip several feet, generating fine electric threads, almost hitting Chu He.

Chu He didn't expect him to have this move, which he hadn't seen before, and broke out in a cold sweat, realizing that his opponent still had more tricks up his sleeve.

"He can't be allowed to use any more tricks." Chu He decided: with a magic treasure in hand, it's best to end the battle quickly; otherwise, there would be too many variables.

While dodging, Chu He directed the Icebirds and Firebirds to swarm, and with a quick turn of his hands, he already had dozens of spell cards between his fingers.

"Trivial tricks!" Zhang Longao activated the Green Wood Lightning Whip, and the Wood Lightning energy bloomed, ready to sweep away the Firebirds and Icebirds.

However, this time, the Firebirds and Icebirds suddenly paired up, embracing each other.

"What is this..." Zhang Longao didn't have time to react before the birds exploded.

Self-destruct? The ice and fire elements, which are inherently opposing, when mixed, significantly increased the explosive power.

Under the assault of several such explosive currents, even with his high-quality magic robe and high-quality spell armor, Zhang Longao was injured.
