Chapter 166 - 166: Flame Explosion
With a violent and shrill roar echoing across the entire competition venue, the fifty thousand spectators in Bai Lu Mountain Arena witnessed a golden red flame expanding like a globe from nothingness.
At the moment of collision with the flame, the energy pillar filled with thunder and flame was swallowed up like a black hole, causing only minor ripples. Not only did it not dissipate the golden red flames, it made the terrifying power even more turbulent.
In the next moment, endless dust and smoke surged upwards rapidly under the rise of heat, and then dispersed gradually in the higher sky, forming a huge mushroom cloud.
The rolling waves of air turned into a terrifying storm, which formed a shape under the outline of dust and smoke, spreading out in circles from the center of the explosion.
[Brilliant counterattack! In the face of Xia Yun’s powerful combined battle skills, Qin Lang’s Food Spirit launched an equally powerful attack! This is a power that Qin Lang has never used before!]
What is that?
Xia Yun’s eyes widened in shock.
She had thought that after launching the combined battle skill, if it didn’t directly defeat Qin Lang’s Food Spirit, it would surely suppress it swiftly.
After all, Qin Lang’s Food Spirit did not possess combined battle skills, it only had a very high flavor value which also granted it a greater combat power value.
But at this moment, this terrifying strike showcased Qin Lang’s strength.
Could it be…
A terrible thought emerged in her mind and she couldn’t shake it off.
Did Qin Lang, who had not mastered the combined battle skill in the morning, mastered it in the span of one afternoon?!
Qin Lang was also surprised.
This surprise, however, was accompanied by a sense of relief and fear.
Naturally, he was aware of the combined battle skill possessed by Xia Yun’s Food Spirit.
And before the competition, Qin Lang and Dan Bao had discussed how to dodge and avoid combined battle skills.
After all, on Dan Bao’s part, a direct counter to a combined battle skill was not possible.
When Dan Bao didn’t respond to his instruction to dodge just now, being on the verge of being swallowed by that purplish-red energy pillar, Qin Lang’s heart felt like it was about to jump into his throat.
Unexpectedly, Dan Bao gave him such a big surprise.
The combined battle skill, which had not been born previously, was born!
But none of this was surprising.
Dan Bao’s two skills had already been elevated to an intuitive level through past training.
It had long had the qualifications to have combined battle skills.
However, combined battle skills require some inspiration and comprehension.
The battle with the high-levels of the Star Hunter and the Spirit Chef Association gave it inspiration.
Under the pressure of the thunder-fire cannon, the birth of the combined battle skills was naturally formed.
And at the moment of the birth of the combined battle skills, both Dan Bao and Qin Lang naturally understood its name.
Combat Skill: Full Firepower + Combat Skill: Thought Wave
Combined Battle Skill: Thought Bound Flame Burst!
Feeling the cheers from Dan Bao in his mind, Qin Lang couldn’t help but swing his fist in the air.
“Go Dan Bao! Thought Bound Flame Burst!”
At this moment, he was also an excited adolescent.
“Gurulu!”
The dust blocking its body disappeared, and Dan Bao, looking at the adversary who was prepared for battle on the other side, had strong anticipation in its eyes.
A golden-red dot of light was quickly forming beside it.
The dot was not larger than a knuckle, and because of the inexperienced casting, it did not form a perfect sphere, but had an elliptical shape instead.
However, the power of the flame, condensed to the extreme, possessed an awe-inspiring potency.
Re-exerting this blow, Dan Bao had a premonition.
In the future, it could further condense these golden-red light spots to be more concentrated and powerful, and it might even be able to simultaneously condense several light spots for attack.
However, for now, it can’t do this yet.
The Thought Wave turned into infinite force, propelling that light point to accelerate to its peak instantly.
Like a comet streaking across the sky, the light left a golden-red tail in the air, reaching its opponent in a flash.
It’s over!
In Dan Bao’s eyes, a fiery desire to fight surged.
“Do you think you can defeat me like this?” Xia Yun shouted loudly. Her eyes showed seriousness but not an ounce of fear, “Thunder Fire Cannon!”
“Dong Ah!!!”
Second Fatty shouted to the heavens, and the whip intertwined with six arcs of electricity and flame once again emerged, glowing brightly.
Like a flow, this glow originated from Second Fatty’s body, following along the whip to the other end, eventually converging into a terrifyingly potent purple-red light sphere.
The Thunder Fire Cannon reemerged!
[Qin Lang, the contestant, is using a brand-new Combined Battle Skill! The Combined Battle Skills of the Food Spirits of both contestants are about to clash. Who will win this fight? Let’s wait and see! ]
All of this happened in a split second. As the golden-red light spot attacked, the combined battle skill of Second Fatty had already charged up, roaring again and exploding in a dazzling purple-red light column.
“Boom!!!”
The terrifying explosion echoed around the arena for a long time, stirring up endless smoke and dust, concealing everything on the battlefield.
Who won?
Countless spectators fell silent at this moment, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
“Qin Lang will win! He definitely will!” Qi Xiaoyu clenched Du Weiwei’s hand and her small face was full of anxious expressions.
Du Weiwei, who was beside her, nodded her head and said solemnly, “Yes. He will.”
With Dan Bao’s Flavor Value and combined battle skills, its power has now reached the peak of a Two-star Food Spirit.
Even considering the unfamiliarity with the newly-born combined battle skills, it’s enough to defeat the current opponent.
On this point, Du Weiwei, who also controls the combined battle skills, was very confident.
However, at the same time, she sighed slightly in her heart.
With this, Little Glutinous Rice has been left behind by Dan Bao…
“Qin Lang must win!”
At some point, Zhao Chen had swapped out his headband for a new one reading, “Qin Lang Must Win”. He waved a flag with Qin Lang’s name on it, his face flush with excitement.
As expected of his worthy adversary, once Yangyang becomes a Two-star, and masters the combined battle skills, he’ll definitely have another bout with Qin Lang!
Under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands, a somewhat charred figure flew in an arc in the air, landing heavily from the cloud of dust.

Seeing that Food Spirit, the entire audience fell silent, soon erupting into cheers.
Xia Yun’s Food Spirit lost its combat capabilities in the collision just now!
[One of Xia Yun’s Food Spirit was eliminated! Qin Lang has leveled the playing field against Xia Yun’s advantage! The remaining Food Spirits of both contestants will face the final showdown!]
With a heavy face, Xia Yun withdrew Second Fatty, who had lost his combat capability, into the Star Vein. She looked at Furry, who still had some stamina left.
“Go on, regardless of the win or loss, fight with all your might!”
“Pabu Pabu!”
Furry nodded heavily, bravely flying into the center of the arena.
A little later, accompanied by yet another thunderous sound, Furry drew a gorgeous parabola in the air, trailing a thread of smoke, following in the footprints of its companion.

“Smack!”
Dan Bao, who flew back to Qin Lang’s side, wagged its tail and met Qin Lang’s raised palm with a high-five, completing their very own celebratory gesture.
We won!
