Bab 28: Battles At Sword Mountain! (1)

Ray stood still as the captain of the team blazing used his [Explosive Flame Strike] and said, "You may have beat us in the qualifiers but today I will get my revenge! Take this!", he sent his attack forward but it disappeared and was sent back even stronger towards him, this shocked the captain profusely and he froze for a second but for that second he was hit by his own attack and then frozen from the bottom to his upper body, "Damn it!! I-", but then Ray put a sheet of ice over his mouth and said, "Losers shouldn't try to argue with the results!", this all happened in under 10 seconds and Roxon said, "Shrek's Ray Yin wins!", next was the flame sword user Huo Che Xiang who said, "Hmph! I've waited for this battle for so long! I've trained hard ever since I was defeated by you-", but then he was stopped by Huo Wu who said, "You go down, I'll deal with him!", "ah?", Roxon tried to explain that they couldn't change the rules for the order that easily but then Huo Wu said, "He's admitted defeat! Those who are going up before me, all admit defeat!!", "B-but I still have my ultimate mo-", "You guys aren't a match for him, get down quickly!", he sighed and left the stage, Roxon just went with it and said, "Alright then! Match continued! Shrek's Ray Yin against Blazing academy's last contestant Huo Wu!", "...", Ray just watched and thought, 'I can never get over the fact that they say the same stuff as the original, it's so trippy!!', Huo Wu kept his silence as his confidence to win and said, "Hey! Don't you have anything to say?! Or do you think you can win against me that easily so there's nothing worth saying? Hmph! Don't think that just because you can control the elements you're all that great...even if you are that great...(whispered), today your gonna lose!", Ray looked at her and thought, 'Wait...did she just compliment me, the heck, this didn't happen in the original, don't tell me...', Huo Wu's flame went purple and she started to attack, 'Hmm...this flame is pretty cool all things considered, poison eh, lets see how you like this.', Ray walked in front of her attacks and spread his hands out and they started to smoke up, as the corrosive flames were about to touch him, he clenched his hand in a grabbing motion and the flame stopped in his hand and he said, "Nice attempt! But flames of this level are going to be insufficient!", 'Sorry Tang san had to take that line from ya'!' the flames in his hand dissipated in the air, "Eh!!! Good! Good for you Ray! Just because you can grab my flames you think you're better than me?! I bet they hurt, you're just pretending! You're just trying to act cool!" inwardly she thought, 'Ah! He caught my flames, he's just as powerful as I remembered with his gemstone like eyes and lustrous white hair, are purple edges dye or not?', "You know you have nice flames and from my understanding of spirit beasts and their effects when they mix with things like this especially when said spirit beast is the purple tongued toad, it's what's giving you the corrosive effect and this toad's poison can do harm to people and judging by the fact that your hands are covered with gloves they have already changed with strong fire speeding up the poison in your hands your gonna turn crippled! Using this flame will only increase the speed of how quick the poison infiltrates the bloodstream! Your hands will change to be more like a toad's webbed feet but anyway back to the match!", Huo Wu didn't retort as she knew he was right, "Imma just end this now then!", Ray teleported in front of her and pushed her down onto the ground, his eyes went silver with a slightly arrogant gaze and the earth around him covered Huo Wu, he then froze her body to make her unmovable and unable to battle, Roxon waited for a bit and before he could declare Ray the winner, Huo Wu combined her rings and her flames turned into an even darker shade of purple and started to slowly melt the ice, "Oh? Not bad!", Ray said and waited for her to attach as it was supposed to be around the level of a spirit emperor or a low-level spirit saint, 'Let's see how this attack fairs against my strongest ice attack!', Ray's arms and legs went into a cold blue and an ice-like armour went around them he had used his [Ice Barrage] he threw out two punches and kicks the ice like armour flew off his arms and legs and grew in the air and were stuck in the motion they were sent out in, the two attacks met, the dark purple menacing flames tried to resist but where overpowered by the ice limbs that created an icy explosion on contact and engulfed the flames, 'Well at least they tried to resist, so they're not all that bad for a supposed flame strength of a spirit saint.', the answer was obvious, the ice attack carried forward and landed around Huo Wu and again froze her, Roxon declared Ray the winner.
