In this chapter, we learn that the princess is using the flame of the true phoenix, which is the third layer of fire. This means that the flame is hotter than it is supposed to be because the princess has the power to control it. This is a big deal for the reader, because it means that Yuxin has the ability to control the flame, which means that she can use it to her advantage. Yuxin is also using the power of the pheonix, the third level of fire, to help her. The reader is shocked to learn that this is a young, true phoenix and that he cannot back off. He wonders if the flame isn't powerful enough to defeat the princess.
