In the afternoon, the mountain behind the school.

The air was filled with pitch-black energy particles, which were furious and agitated, exuding intense uneasiness and danger.

Standing under a big tree, Lin Xiaoping held a branch and took a deep breath.

The particles of light gradually converged, and a black flame that burned brightly and filled with an ominous aura appeared.

beckoned, and the black flame was attached to Lin Xiao's palm, looking very well-behaved, and he was at his disposal.

But... This is limited to himself.

Lin Xiao brought the black flame in his hand close to the branch, trying to attach it to it.

One centimeter, two centimeters, three centimeters......

After climbing three centimeters, Hei Yan completely lost the well-behaved appearance just now, and it burst into flames, directly devouring the entire branch, completely exposing his nature-

Sharp, sharp, cranky, chaotic, unstable...

Bear ——!

The branches shattered, turning into invisible dust and drifting into the air.

"Alas......"

Lin Xiao sighed helplessly, and there was not much disappointment on his face.

As soon as his mind moved, the black flame in his hand continued to deform, and it bent and outlined, forming a crescent moon as thin as a cicada's wings and burning with black flames.

Whew——!

The black moon swept up, passing through the branches and buds, turning into a streamer of light, soaring into the sky.

Rustle... Smack!

The green leaves were scattered, and a few branches fell.

Lin Xiao picked one up casually, his expression full of sadness.

He's working on his ability control, especially Blackflame's.

Lin Xiao's ability activation is divided into three phases in total.

One is the assimilation of power particles, which are those black light particles.

Although the power at this stage has the characteristics of being unstable, it is not aggressive and is safe.

The second stage is "Black Flame", and from this time on, Lin Xiao's ability has begun to show terrifying lethality.

He can attach these black flames to his hands, and with a light touch, he can destroy them.

As for the third stage, the ability is officially formed, and the black flame directly turns into a waning moon-like "slash".

The lethality of this stage is the highest, so high that Lin Xiao doesn't know where its limit is......

But there is a problem, that is, after the ability is formed, Lin Xiao can only control it to launch, slashing at the enemy, and there are not many additional operations.

At most, you can fine-tune the direction or dispel the slash early.

Poor plasticity.

On the contrary, it is the second stage of "Black Flame", which has an extremely free way of use.

Lin Xiao even wanted to wrap the black flame all over his body and wrap all the weapons in the same way as the power entanglement.

Just thinking about that image, he couldn't help but feel excited.

Using the black flame to make it into ash mode, Lin Xiao at that time may turn into an extremely terrifying and dangerous monster.

If the alien beast attacked Lin Xiao at close range, it was estimated that it would hurt him by 100 and damage 1000 by himself, as if he had opened an anti-armor.

But things are not as simple as he thought.

Compared to the comfortable and dreamy moon white, this black flame energy is too irritable and unstable.

Except for Lin Xiao himself, other items would be destroyed as soon as they came into contact.

Including the clothes on the body......

I tried it last time, but Lin Xiao ran back to the dormitory with his bare ass that day.

Of course... It's in ash mode, otherwise he probably has lost the courage to live.

Fiddling with the branches in his hand, Lin Xiao fell into deep thought.

How do you get the Black Flame under control?

What is the level of power and martial arts? Mental intensity? Ability proficiency?

If these are improved, they should be able to better control the Black Flame Power Particles.

But this has to be done slowly, and it is not possible to do it in one step.

Is there any way to do it at this stage? Don't ask for anything else, at least let it not hurt the weapons and clothing it is attached to.

This black flame was really irritable, except for Lin Xiao himself, all matter and energy were the scope of its attack.

…… Except for yourself?

Lin Xiao blinked and was stunned for a moment.

His power does not belong to the category of "himself", after all, Teacher Xu Ruomei once said-

Power is equivalent to an extension of the body.

Well... Anyway, give it a try and find out!

A dark gray veil of flame flowed out and wrapped around the entire branch, making it look like a burning stick with ash flames.

Lin Xiao manipulated the black light particles in the air, causing them to swarm and converge, forming a black flame full of ominous aura.

Manipulating the black flame, Lin Xiao carefully touched it to the branches.

Bear... Bear... Bear...

The black flame seemed to be about to burst out, but it felt the familiar power above, pause, spread, pause, spread......

Gradually, it climbed onto the surface of the branches, clinging to the dark gray gauze, blending with Lin Xiao's might.

And the branches... Intact.

Did it work!?

Lin Xiao's eyes suddenly lit up, he didn't expect it to really work!

Although, the current ability Black Flame is actually based on his power as a carrier, and there is no real attachment to the item, but the effect has indeed been achieved!

But... There are also additional consumptions.

Lin Xiao felt it, and the power wrapped around the branches was being consumed at about three times the usual speed.

It seems to be the "price" of supporting the Black Flame.

"Hmm..."

In this regard, Lin Xiao grinned at the corners of his mouth, his power reserves were slightly more than those of other hunters, and the consumption felt completely acceptable!

Moreover, he would not normally use such a dangerous force, unless it is really a critical moment......

Try Ash Mode now!

Bear ——!

Without hesitation, Lin Xiao opened the ash suit, and all the black particles around him gathered, forming a restless pitch-black flame in the air.

"Come on!"

The flames devoured Lin Xiao.

His gray gloves, robes, trousers, flame marks, and combat boots were all dyed black, and the black veil of flames on them was beating restlessly, filled with an extremely ominous and demonic aura.

Shaking his palm, Lin Xiao nodded with satisfaction.

"It's called... Deep!? Ah——!h ”

Puff ——!

The combat boots burning with black flames pierced through the gravel and soil, and Lin Xiao's whole person fell into the earth, unable to extricate himself for a long time.

In the future, when this mode is opened, the soles of the shoes must not be attached to the black flames, this is the lesson he learned today......

……

In the morning, the sun is shining.

Today is the official start of the 6A qualifying round.

As the most important final qualifying battle for the junior, the venue for this competition was set up in the central arena of Luzhou Military Force.

The venue is very open and surrounded by a circular auditorium for students to better enjoy the excitement.

There is a main ring inside the venue and 3 sub-rings.

The main ring occupies the largest area, which is 140 * 140 meters, and is four times the size of the Fighting Dojo Sequence 4.

Located at the southern end of the venue, the sorting stations are 70 x 70 meters and are reserved for students who have been eliminated from the main ring and entered the round-robin competition.

At this time, the venue was bustling with activity, and the audience was full of students.

Lin Xiao, who was sitting in the player's seat, roughly estimated that this was at least more than 1,000 people.

It seems that this time not only the juniors, but also the students of other grades have slipped over, and there may be a mixture of returning seniors.

At this moment, green light surged and spread, rendering the entire venue.

As far as the eye can see, there is already a sea of verdant greenery.

The noise in the arena dissipated and soon fell silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on the north side of the arena.

There is a protruding platform with many tables, chairs and sofas.

The people sitting here are also the "big people" in the school.

The old principal, Ling Sen, Lan Bao, the Hunters Association - Vice President - Jiang Wenlong, the Marriage and Childbirth Security Association - President - Shen Rou, and the teachers of the junior classes.

and, three uninvited legion cadres, the Rage Legion-Firebeast, the Thorn Rose-Purple Demon, and the Scarlet Wolf Pack-Ghost.

Seeing that the atmosphere of the venue had been quiet, Ling Sen, who had white hair and crane beard, stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked to the front desk step by step.

He looked around the venue and said lightly:

"Today, our Luzhou Military Martial Arts University will hold a 6A qualifying competition in the third year here."

There was no microphone, but through the slightly trembling green light particles, the old man's clear voice spread throughout the audience.

"The students with a 6A evaluation in their junior year are the highest level among students in school."

"Therefore, this competition is also the most valuable battle every year, please watch and learn, and take this as the goal... Motivate yourself. ”

"In this battle, weapon restrictions will be lifted, so that each student can show their strongest strength."

"Now, I declare..."

Ling Sen stretched out his right hand and waved it down vigorously:

"The game is officially on!"

A loud voice fell, and the verdant ocean boiled.

The powerful torrents in the ring converge to form translucent branches and leaves, which grow on the floor and float in mid-air.

The surrounding light points form a green barrier.

Like a huge semi-circular bowl, it was buckled inside the stadium, separating the audience from the ring.

Subsequently, it gradually becomes colorless and transparent.

The 6A qualifying round for the junior year has now officially begun......
