The Fang Tian painting shadow is merely a kind of "projection" of an image. No matter how clear, it inevitably holds some distortion.
The spectators outside the field still have a full perspective.
Under the distortion of the painting shadow, they can see Mo Hua casting the
Fireball Technique, but with the naked eye alone, it's difficult to discern the roots of this fireball.
They can only vaguely perceive that there's something odd about this Fireball Technique.
However, most cultivators still don't take it seriously.
Especially those who previously harbored prejudice against Mo Hua and held some malice in their hearts were especially disdainful:
"What's so special about the Fireball Technique? Acting as if no one else can do it..."
"Just a mere Fireball Technique; even if you play fancy tricks with it, what's the big deal? Isn't it still a Fireball Technique?"
"Those dimwits from the Spirit Talisman Sect, in my opinion, are all just show-offs, getting caught by this Fireball Technique is simply laughable..." "Isn't it just tossing a Fireball Technique? I could do it, too..."
In the crowd, Gu Changhuai dismisses these remarks with disdain.
He simply concentrates on watching the Fang Tian painting shadow, thinking about Mo Hua's earlier Fireball Technique...
And at the very beginning, in the thatched cottage outside Qingzhou City, those dozen or so traffickers who were executed by the Fireball Technique and then burned to a crisp to "destroy the evidence", he couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows and sighed helplessly:
"This kid sure knows how to hide..."
With the sword discussion with the Spirit Talisman Sect concluded.
The discussions about Mo Hua have temporarily quieted down.
One couldn't say Mo Hua is useless.
He is useful, but only to a certain degree.
It's probably just the worth of a few Fireball Techniques.
People's impression of Mo Hua shifted from a completely useless, hindering Crown Prince of Taixu Gate to...
"A Formation Master who knows the Fireball Technique".
Outside Mount of Tao.
Mo Hua and Linghu Xiao, tidied up and prepared to return to the Sect, but after walking only a few steps, they ran into several people from the Spirit Talisman Sect again.
The one at the forefront was still Wu Ming.
His expression was full of resentment, a mix of anger, with his spirit armor glowing red, flamboyant like a "defeated rooster".
Wu Ming stared intently at the crowd, especially Mo Hua among them.
His previous hatred lay with Linghu Xiao.
However, now, having been "slammed" with the Fireball Technique and ridiculed, his hatred successfully shifted.
"Mo Hua..." he muttered Mo Hua's name, embarrassed, somewhat gnashing his teeth:
"If it weren't for you, using the Fireball Technique to ambush me, I wouldn't have been defeated."
"If it weren't for you, Linghu Xiao would already be my defeated opponent...
"I'll remember you, you just wait..."
After spitting out these harsh words, he walked away.
Mo Hua frowned, a bit puzzled, then looked at Linghu Xiao, curiously saying:
"Even if I used the Fireball Technique to blow his face up, it was ultimately your swordsmanship that defeated him. You won against him, why is he holding a grudge against me?"
Linghu Xiao found it difficult to answer, remaining silent.
"Probably... Preferring to die under a strong sword rather than be humiliated by Fireball Technique?" Situ Jian suggested.
After all, in the sword discussion of prodigies, being defeated by Chongxu Sword, the True Sword Art of a Sword Dao Genius, even in defeat, there's a sad, heroic sense of losing with honor.
However, if one loses to a Fireball Technique in the prodigy sword discussion... Upon reflection, there's only a "sense of absurdity".
"No way..." Mo Hua frowned, "A myriad of Taoist Skills each have their merits and flaws, their application lies in the heart."
"That's the saying, but a Fireball Technique is still just a Fireball Technique..." Situ Jian whispered.
Mo Hua shook his head solemnly, "You cannot disregard the Fireball Technique
as a mere spell... I'll prove to them, the Fireball Technique is also a powerful
spell!"
Mo Hua looked earnest, determined to justify the name of the "Fireball
Technique".
After all, it's the first attack-type spell taught by Old Kui himself to him, the
Fireball Technique.
He wouldn't allow anyone to look down on the Fireball Technique!
"Return to the Sect, prepare for the strategy for the next sword discussion!"
