The ice bat did not even have the chance to hit the ground. It was fully melted and evaporated into thin air a few seconds after the yeti threw it away. 

The spectators were all gasping when they saw that. What just happened told them about the strength of the blue flames. 

"Hey, Saville…" Juin said with a smile. Under the illumination of the blue flames, his smile was eerie, and seeing that, Saville could not help but gulp subconsciously as his hands shivered. 

"W-What…" Realizing that he was stuttering, Saville quickly cleared his throat and stood up straight. Taking his weapon, Frost River, out, he got into an attack position as he snapped, "Come!" 

The yeti behind him did the same as an ice falchion appeared in his hand. 

"Remember your limit…" Lucifer warned. "You don't have much time!" 

Juin nodded before charging forward. Each of his step melted the ice on the ground, leaving deep footprints in it. 

He charged toward Saville without even bothering to take out his weapon. 

Saville made a stab down action, upon which the yeti did the same, stabbing into the ground a few meters in front of him and at Juin. 

BAM!

Juin jumped up and ran up the falchion. With the flames on his feet, he did not have to worry about being stuck to the ice like what happened to Cyrus. 

When the ice falchion stabbed into the battle stage, huge pieces of the stage flew up, yet they did not fly up freely. Instead, they were frozen in midair by the powerful frost created by the yeti.

Using them as stepping stones, Juin jumped toward Saville.

Saville smirked. Thinking that Juin was being overconfident, Saville "pulled" the falchion back and stabbed upward. 

However, to his surprise, Juin was flexible enough to roll in midair, thus dodging his stab easily.

No… Not dodge. 

"I was right!" Juin thought when he landed on the ground on one knee and looked at the yeti, which had the falchion pointing toward the air. 

Saville pulled the falchion back and stabbed toward Juin, with a slightly tilted down position. When he did so, the latter jumped up high, landing on the falchion that was stabbed toward his abdomen lightly before putting a foot on Saville's shoulder. 

Hiss!!!

"ARGH!" Saville cried out. The blue flames from Juin's body burned through his shoulder, leaving a deep and painful charred footprint mark on it. He dropped the falchion from pain as he quickly placed a hand on the shoulder and froze the wound. 

Juin then pushed himself upward, using the step as a momentum, as he reached for his true target; the yeti behind Saville. 

His action caused Saville's knee to buckle from the pressure, and the latter landed on a knee before quickly turning back. And the yeti behind him did the same, turning to look behind. 

"100% sure no!" Juin thought to himself when he saw the yeti falling onto a knee. He raised a punch and roared, "DIE!!!" 

As for Saville, when he saw Juin with his blue flaming punch ready, he realized what Juin was going after. 

But it was too late. 

Juin's punch had reached the yeti's abdomen. 

"Argh!!!" Juin roared as he "stabbed" into the yeti's abdomen with his punch. His fist glowed brightly in blue as his aura soared higher. No matter how cold the yeti's abdomen was, it was still made of ice, and with Juin's form right now, he managed to melt through the yeti's abdomen and emerge through the other side. 

Saville's ability wasn't in any of the record that Tucker showed him. Which meant that the yeti was a new one that the arrogant guy created. It was Saville's trump card. 

And so, Juin had to take some time to understand it. When he was being thrown around inside his shield, he was actually thinking… mostly to also avoid thinking about how much he wanted to vomit. 

And when his flaming shield was broken and he was freefalling, Juin noticed that Saville's movement and the yeti's movement were in sync, to the point that when Saville was blinking, the yeti's empty sockets blinked too. 

Juin then deduced that Saville and the yeti were connected. It was like Lucifer's Soul Beast, except that this was a weaker version because the yeti was more deeply connected to Saville. 

By attacking the yeti, Juin hoped that he would be able to injure Saville as well. Hence, he also used one of the stronger and more soul power consuming spell to retaliate. 

"Argh!" Saville cried out as he clutched his abdomen where the yeti was attacked. 

Boom!

The yeti fell on both knees as it touched the area where it was attacked by Juin, which was now an empty hole. And the empty hole was expanding quickly, continuously melted by the lingering blue flames that could not be rid of by ice alone. 

The blue flames, in the forms of multiple veins, traveled all over the yeti's body, burning and melting it, until it became a horrible, disfigured block of ice that was completely covered in burning blue veins. 

"H-how did you know…" Saville asked as he struggled to stand up. Glaring at Juin, he said, "No one knows about this…" 

"Lucky guess?" Juin shrugged, still covered in the layer of flames.

"Lucky... guess?" Saville repeated with an expression of disbelief before vomiting out a mouthful of blood. He was seriously injured and almost completely depleted of soul power. 

This was a unique spell that was created using his bloodline. In order to win against Luca, Saville had been spending the last few years learning from the book of spells that was left behind by his father. 

One of the spells that he learned was called the "Ice Monster Replacement". This spell enabled him to call upon a monster that could help him temporarily increase his soul power reserve as well as increasing the strength of his ice ability. 

However, the spell to conjure the yeti was not without its disadvantage. The yeti was connected to him, and if it was injured, there would be a severe backlash that would be reflected on the castor's body.

"Give up, Saville…" Juin said in a calm voice. "If you keep going, you might really die here today…"

In reality, he wasn't really calm. He needed to take a break soon, and if anyone paid attention to him, they would notice that his blue flames were less and less vibrant.

"Give up?" Saville sneered. He took out a Soul Rejuvenation Pill and said, "I was going to leave this for Luca… But now…" 

"If that's a Soul Rejuvenation Pill, just let me remind you…" Juin said while clasping his hands behind his back to keep them from trembling. He then pulled out a small red silk bag from his Dimensional Pocket and twirled it around a finger as he said, "I have a few of those too…"

"What…" Saville turned pale. "How…" 

"Didn't you know?" Juin sighed before saying with a taunting smile, "I was a pretty good negotiator… And I'm sure I have more than you."
