88: Report! Someone is cheating!

This time, many people in Dawn City secretly placed bets, hoping to make a quick fortune.

Because Gu Qianjun's strength had already reached the Late Control Stage, many people felt his winning rate was relatively higher.

After all, once in the Control Stage, the gap between small sub-stages is quite obvious.

This wasn't something that having more types of Divinity could completely offset.

The current odds against Zhou Xing were 1:1.5.

In the center of the arena, the two stood facing each other.

Gu Qianjun had a solemn expression, while Zhou Xing was expressionless.

The moment Elder Tongxuan announced the start of the match, Gu Qianjun seized the initiative and launched the first attack.

His Late Control Stage strength suddenly erupted. Pressing his hands down, he shouted in a low voice, "Vacuum Domain!"

Boom!

As a cracking sound rang out, with Gu Qianjun as the center, all the air within a 150-meter radius was instantly sucked dry, forming a perfect absolute vacuum area.

"The strategy is right, it's just that he's facing Zhou Xing."

In the stands, many people nodded secretly.

Gu Qianjun clearly wanted to rely on his Late Control Stage strength to unleash a burst of power and forcibly suppress Zhou Xing.

However, if it were that easy, why would a multi-attribute Fusion Awakened One be so highly valued? Zhou Xing was naturally prepared for Gu Qianjun's methods.

Currently inside the Vacuum Domain, even with Zhou Xing's current physical strength, he felt a sense of suffocation, and his skin felt as if it were being constantly torn, which was very uncomfortable.

Zhou Xing's ice and fire abilities quickly erupted, immediately condensing the "Ice-Fire Battle Armor," and the pressure instantly decreased.

"Negative Pressure Blade!" Gu Qianjun continuously waved his hands, and invisible Vacuum Blades flew toward Zhou Xing.

These Vacuum Blades carried a powerful splitting ability, making them the nemesis of ordinary physical defenses.

However, in an instant, the flame power in Zhou Xing's right hand surged, and a wall of scorching fire rose directly.

The extreme heat disrupted the air density, directly causing the eerie Vacuum Blades to deviate.

At the same time, Zhou Xing's left hand waved repeatedly, firing Ice Cones at the Vacuum Blades to directly block and destroy them.

Gu Qianjun's previous moves were merely probes; seeing his attacks easily blocked, he was not discouraged.

He instantly accelerated, using "Void Step," and his figure immediately became blurred.

In the vacuum environment, his movement speed increased significantly, and he appeared to Zhou Xing's left as if teleporting.

"Vacuum Thrust!"

Gu Qianjun's right hand transformed into a hand-blade, his entire arm wrapped in vacuum power, aiming straight for Zhou Xing's throat like an indestructible sharp blade.

"Ice-Fire Rotation!"

Even without using the god of war ability, his passive Battle Acuity allowed Zhou Xing to sense the danger, and he immediately spun his body violently.

The Ice-Fire Battle Armor on his body emitted a swirling vortex of red and blue energy.

After Gu Qianjun's hand-blade struck, he found he couldn't penetrate deeper, and the attack was directly deflected by the force field generated by the two types of energy.

However, Gu Qianjun quickly changed his attack method. Just as Zhou Xing intended to move to Freeze him, Gu Qianjun appeared eerily above Zhou Xing's head.

"Vacuum: Gravity Well!"

Gu Qianjun pressed his hands down, and the space around Zhou Xing suddenly suffered gravitational distortion, causing his legs to sink into the arena floor.

Boom!

At the critical moment, Zhou Xing's dual ice and fire energies exploded beneath his feet, the recoil allowing him to break free from the restraint.

"Ice and Snow World!"

The moment he landed, Zhou Xing slammed one hand onto the arena.

Immediately, a massive amount of Frost Power rapidly spread outward in all directions with Zhou Xing as the center.

The power of extreme cold continuously consumed the opponent's Vacuum Domain.

"Fire Rain Technique!"

Simultaneously, Zhou Xing raised his right hand high, and the entire sky above the arena was suddenly covered by a crimson dark cloud.

In the next instant, a multitude of fireballs fell from the sky like a rainstorm, covering the entire arena and leaving Gu Qianjun with nowhere to hide.

"Ice-Fire Dual Stream: Annihilation!"

Just as Gu Qianjun revealed himself, Zhou Xing's attack had already arrived. A torrent of interwoven blue and white energy swept toward him, causing Gu Qianjun's expression to change.

At this point, it was too late to dodge; he could only meet it head-on.

Gritting his teeth, Gu Qianjun shouted, "Vacuum Collapse!" Immediately after, the space in front of him twisted into a miniature black hole, attempting to swallow the energy torrent whole.

However, the entire arena was now covered in frost and flames. Under the cover of the energy explosion, Zhou Xing used his ice ability to perform "Ice-Fire Flash Step," suddenly lunging behind Gu Qianjun and striking out with a palm.

Bang!

The palm strike, wrapped in ice-fire Fusion, hit Gu Qianjun's back, sending him flying and triggering a series of gasps from the audience.

But in mid-air, Gu Qianjun's body suddenly twisted and dissipated—

"Vacuum Illusion!"

This was a life-saving ability he had never used before.

As he reappeared, a pitch-black sphere several meters in diameter was rapidly falling from above Zhou Xing's head.

The sphere was surrounded by vacuum power, like a giant black hole, causing the pressure on Zhou Xing to multiply.

To ensure his safety, Zhou Xing raised both hands: "Ice-Fire Dual Stream: Absolute Defense!"

A spiral of frost and flames burst out, forming a red and blue energy shield.

Boom—!

The black hole and the shield collided violently, and the terrifying shockwave ripped up the entire arena floor.

Under this force, Zhou Xing was smashed directly into the ground, blood leaking from the corner of his mouth.

A massive circular crater formed where he had been.

Gu Qianjun was sent flying back by the force, his mask shattering to reveal his true face underneath.

However, by comparison, his condition seemed much better than Zhou Xing's.

Immediately, many Awakened Ones who had bet on Zhou Xing's victory became nervous.

"Light of Healing!"

Buzz!

But just then, Zhou Xing waved his hand, and an emerald green Light of Healing emerged, instantly covering him.

In just a short moment, Zhou Xing had perfectly recovered, completely unharmed.

"Report, someone is cheating!"

Watching this scene, the corner of Gu Qianjun's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

"Haha, this is the power of healing abilities. As long as one's divine energy exists, they can heal their physical injuries anytime, anywhere, and return to their Peak state.

In this battle of attrition, although Gu Qianjun's Realm is higher, he definitely won't be able to hold out until the end."

Someone analyzed at this moment.

Many people around also nodded in agreement.

Indeed, the healing attribute was essentially a bug-like existence.

Not bothering to say more, Zhou Xing didn't intend to drag things out for too long.

The moment he recovered, he slammed both hands onto the ground: "Ice-Fire Domain!"

Instantly, two energies of extreme cold and extreme heat erupted simultaneously, creating an energy clash that briefly formed an artificial oxygenated environment.

"What?" Gu Qianjun was dumbfounded to find that his Vacuum Domain had actually failed.

"Ice-Fire Dual Stream: Spear of Annihilation!"

Before Gu Qianjun could react, Zhou Xing's next attack had already formed.

The two energies of frost and flame spiraled and intertwined, finally condensing into a blue and white energy spear that shot toward Gu Qianjun like a bolt of lightning.
