Martial Master

Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked.

Damn, this kid actually did it too?

Each person was dumbfounded, almost unable to believe their own eyes. Upon closer inspection, the fiery trees in the hands of the two were almost identical. The only difference was that one was azure blue while the other was greenish, making it difficult to distinguish between them.

"Hmm?"

Jin Shengjie’s expression changed, clearly taken aback. He hadn’t expected that Qin Chen could truly evolve the flames into a tree just like himself.

“Indeed, not bad.”

He let out a cold laugh, suddenly recalling that Qin Chen was capable of using the Wan Yan Fen Liu Technique. Evolving flames into trees wasn’t particularly difficult; he had underestimated this guy earlier. To dare challenge him, this kid indeed had some skills.

Qin Chen said indifferently, "Enough with the nonsense, is that all you can do? If it is, then I should be considered the winner, right?"

"Hahaha, thinking you can win me? Not even close." Jin Shengjie maintained his composure, tauntingly saying, "This is just the beginning, kid. Watch closely, the next part is the key." His expression became serious, and the fiery tree in his hand began to grow again, reaching a height of four to five meters in an instant, as thick as a person could embrace. Immediately, patterns appeared on the trunk, almost mimicking the bark, and one could clearly see the wrinkles on it. As for the leaves, countless fiery leaves emerged, displaying intricate leaf veins.

“Zizi!”

Everyone stepped back in shock, their eyes almost popping out.

Heavens! Is this still a human? This is simply a divine work! Even the God of Flames couldn’t possibly control flames to such an extent, could he?

"Kid, how about now?" Jin Shengjie looked at Qin Chen proudly.

Qin Chen scoffed, “What’s this? I thought you had some great ability. Just watch…”

As his voice fell, the fiery tree in his hand also began to grow, reaching four to five meters high. Following that, the detailed bark and leaf veins similarly appeared, clear and audible.

"Good!"

Xuan Yi Yaowang suddenly stood up, almost shouting in excitement.

His eyes sparkled, his body trembling, the radiance in his gaze dazzling.

Incredibly, Qin Chen actually did it too.

The head of Xuan Sheng Pavilion maintained an expressionless face, yet internally he couldn't help but shout "good." Being able to control flames to such a level represented not only Qin Chen’s powerful mental strength but also an innate talent for the finesse required in flame control.

This was an extremely terrifying ability for an alchemist.

An alchemist could only become a high-level practitioner if they could control their true fire with extreme delicacy, providing various sensitive feedback based on the reactions in the alchemy furnace. This was essentially a prerequisite skill for becoming a high-level alchemist.

And now, Qin Chen had achieved it.

This guy was simply a genius!

However, Jin Shengjie’s face suddenly changed; he clearly hadn’t anticipated that Qin Chen would replicate such fine control over the flames.

"Kid, don’t get too proud, there’s more to come."

He gritted his teeth, his face turning ashen, but his expression gradually became serious as he took a deep breath, clearly focusing all his energy and attention.

After a while, he shouted, "Rise."

His right hand suddenly lifted, and the fiery tree unexpectedly planted itself into the ground in the square. Immediately, Jin Shengjie made hand seals, and a gust of wind swept through, causing the leaves on the tree to sway. Suddenly, a bird's chirp sounded, and a small azure bird flew out from among the leaves, flitting joyfully around and chirping. Its fluffy feathers appeared vividly, flapping about lifelike.

“Hiss!”

Everyone gasped in surprise, unable to contain their astonishment.

How is this possible? The little bird flew joyfully while Jin Shengjie maintained a serious expression. His body was tense, clearly exerting all his energy. A trace of mental energy sustained the azure flame bird as it flew back and forth. If everyone hadn’t known this was a fire control competition, some might have thought the bird was real.
