"But why! Elder Sister, you should know that without Hercules, I can't be your opponent at all!" Iphia still couldn't believe that her Elder Sister, who had always liked her, would suddenly issue a formal challenge to her. A formal challenge issued under one’s title was not just casual talk, but both sides had to fight with all their strength.

"Are you really not able to fight without Hercules! Iphia, this wrong thought of yours must be corrected. Yes, Hercules is your guard. But you must increase your own strength as well! Otherwise, what is the point of having Sin of Ice and Snow?" Quna's words were as cold as the wind blowing on the glacier.

"But! Elder Sister..." Iphia still wanted to say something, but Quna didn't seem to want to continue talking to her.

"Come! Ice Soul Eyes!" Quna put her metal gloved hands on her head, closed her eyes, and gently called her Phantasm's name.

With Quna's call, the two golden crystals inlaid on her metal gloves slowly changed color, from gold to transparent blue. At the same time, her waist-length orange-yellow hair also instantly turned ice blue, and a few wisps of white cold air that could be seen by the naked eye surrounded her seductive body. But the surrounding temperature did not decrease because she summoned her own ice attribute Phantasm. It seemed that her Phantasm could only affect a range of about one meter around her.

"Sin of Ice and Snow!" Seeing Quna summon her own Phantasm, Iphia knew that today's battle was impossible to avoid, so she did not hesitate to summon her own Phantasm. The moment she summoned Sin of Ice and Snow, the already very low temperature around her instantly dropped a few degrees. Judging from the way both Phantasm appeared, it was obvious that Iphia's Sin of Ice and Snow was much stronger.

"Your Phantasm Sin of Ice and Snow is still full of oppressive aura, Iphia. Your enemy will definitely be very wary the moment they see it! You still have to learn to control your Phantasm's power." Quna opened her closed eyes and lowered her hands from her head. The cold air surrounding her concentrated near her long icy blue hair and hands.

"Elder Sister! Do we really have to fight each other?" Iphia held Sin of Ice and Snow in her hand tightly, shaking uncontrollably. Although she took out her Phantasm, she still didn't have a trace of confidence in the face of Quna who could tie Hercules.

"Yes. Iphia, here I come!" Quna said coldly, and rushed towards Iphia quickly.

"Ah!” Although scared, Iphia still sent out a few white chilly waves to prevent Quna from approaching, and then quickly backed away. She who had watched Quna fight Hercules before, knew very well that if she allowed her elder sister to get closer to her within one meter, she would lose.

"Ka! Ka! Ka!" Several white pillars of air rushed towards Quna who was rushing along the ice surface with an aura that could destroy everything.

"Pop!" Quna lightly kicked the ice surface under her feet, jumped into the air several meters high, and easily avoided Iphia's seemingly aggressive attack.

But the air was not a safe place. Iphia, who had retreated more than a dozen meters away, had already used the ultimate she used to deal with Ulysses-The Sin of Ice and Snow’s Thrice Crescent Slash.

A huge column of air made up of three white cold air waves entangled with each other relentlessly rolled towards Quna in the air.

But Quna, who could not dodge the attack in the air, didn't have any panicked expressions on her face, as if she had already predicted Iphia's move. She quickly made a backward somersault in the air. Using her feet, she sent out an extremely sharp and big octagonal ice flake.

This octagonal ice flake was about a few meters big, but its thickness was only a few centimeters. It was very similar to the icicle fake that made up snowflakes, but it was hundreds or thousands of times larger.

Iphia's Thrice Crescent Slash was easily torn apart by this ice flake. It was as easy as a sharp blade cutting across the silk. The torn air column quickly disappeared in the air, and Quna was no longer in any danger.

The octagonal ice flake that had torn through the air column quickly shot at Iphia ten meters away. The sharp air-piercing sound reminded people that this was definitely not a toy.

With the sound of "ding!", the octagonal ice flake that flew toward Iphia was finally blocked by her Sin of Ice and Snow, and the blocked octagonal ice flake shot into the ground of the training ground, leaving a long and narrow crack on the ground. The crack was very deep, one almost could not see the bottom at first glance. It could be clearly seen how powerful this attack was. If a person was hit, probably that person would be cut into half.

But just for an instant, Quna, who fell on the ground, appeared before Iphia, as if the distance of ten meters didn't exist at all. After appearing before Iphia, Quna took advantage that Iphia had just swung her sword and was unable to pull back her sword, and stretched out her hand and pressed it on her body.

"Ding!!" At the moment when Quna's hand was about to touch Iphia's body, Iphia finally reacted. She placed Sin of Ice and Snow in front of her and blocked Quna's hand.

"Ka! Ka!" The Sin of Ice and Snow colliding with Quna's hands unexpectedly began to be frozen and countless small ice flakes appeared on the sword.

"Sin of Ice and Snow Ice Flash Slash!" With Iphia's cry, the transparent Sin of Ice and Snow suddenly sent out a bright white light that knocked Quna away. No, it was not just to knock her away. After sending Quna flying, several thick ice spears appeared in front of Iphia out of thin air, and then shot at Quna who was sent flying like a meteor flying across the sky.

Faced with these sharp ice spears, Quna, who was sent into the air, placed her hands in front of her, and said softly,

"Ice Wall !" With Quna's crisp words, the blue crystals on her hands gave out a faint white light. Then, a transparent ice wall two meters long, one meter wide, and a few centimeters thick appeared in front of Quna. The size of the ice wall was just right to completely defend against all attacks from the front, but with only a few centimeters of thickness, it made people worry about the defensive ability of this ice wall.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" What was surprising was that the ice spears that were shot at Quna were blocked by this ice wall that looked only a few centimeters thick. No, not only did it block them, but it also bounced all the ice spears away. The evidence was that although the collision made a loud noise, Quna in the air was not even shaken back by a centimeter.

After bouncing away those ice spears, Quna fell to the ground and dispersed the ice wall in front of her. Then she put her right hand near her small mouth and blew out the cold air. When the cold air passed her right hand, the blue crystal on her metal glove flashed, making the cold air a little bigger, and the color of the air also changed to the color of her hair. But compared with the column of air made by Iphia’s Sin of Ice and Snow, this cold air was really too small.

"Diamond Breath!!" Although the cold air seemed so insignificant, the moment Iphia saw it, her face suddenly became panicked. After letting out a cry, she quickly sent out Thrice Crescent Slash again, and at the same time retreating quickly.

However, it was too late. The small cold air that seemed to be made by Quna when she yawned passed through her hand, and its speed suddenly increased countless times. In less than one second, it broke through the Thrice Crescent Slash and hit Iphia who was flying backwards.

"Ah!" At the moment of being hit by this small cold air, Iphia let out a painful cry, and then countless small ice flakes began to appear on her hands, feet, and chest.

"Sin of Ice and Snow!!..." Iphia gritted her teeth and endured the freezing ice that had spread around her body. But just when she was about to use the Phantasm in her hand to remove the freezing ice from her body, Quna rushed in front of her and pressed her hands on her shoulders.

"Ice Soul Eyes! Absolute Freeze!" As Quna whispered, the pair of ice soul eyes on her hand gave out a transparent silver light. Under the shining of silver light, Iphia holding Sin of Ice and Snow was frozen into a block of ice several meters high in just a moment.

Under the light of the crystals above the training ground, the frozen Iphia was like a perfect work of art. Through the transparent ice cube, one could even see the surprise, unwillingness, and a trace of fear on her face.

‘I am sorry, younger sister! But this battle is for your own good, and I want you to understand that you can't hide behind Hercules forever. In the near future, we, the seven nights will re-enter the continent in batches. On the continent, you will meet all kinds of opponents. They won't be as merciful to you as we do. As the youngest of our seven nights, you must become stronger. At least you must have the power to protect yourself. During the time you are frozen by me, I hope you can think about your shortcomings.’

Quna gently held the edge of the ice block that had Iphia inside, looked at her guiltily, and countless thoughts flashed in her mind.
