Yin Yang Reversal VS Extreme Ice Fury, The Future Is Mine, and So Is the Present

Yin Yang Reversal VS Extreme Ice Fury, The Future Is Mine, and So Is the Present (4K)

The Ice Jade Scorpion, one of the rulers of the Extreme North, was a race governed by the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, one of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts. Its members were born with ultimate ice!

Compared to Bu Po Li Qiankun and Meihu Nangong Yao, the pressure Tang Dong brought was as terrifying as mountains collapsing and seas swallowing the land. With nothing more than a simple Martial Soul Possession, a chill spread continuously in all directions, instantly turning the Ice Arena as hard as iron!

Facing the ultimate ice that had been renowned across Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago, Zhao Xuanzhen gave it the highest degree of attention. He lowered his body slightly as golden streams of light spread across his skin, gathering into a dazzling suit of golden glazed armor. Beneath the blazing sun, he looked like a god reborn through fire.

True Self, Golden Awakening!

"Your Second Awakening of Original Martial Soul... you finally decided to use it?"

Tang Dong's playful expression faded, replaced by seriousness. Clearly, Zhao Xuanzhen had made him feel pressure. The Second Awakening was the foundation of an Original Martial Soul's strength; to a Ben Ti Soul Master, it was a complete evolution, a rebirth of flesh and bone!

His thousand-year second soul ring lit up. Hexagonal Diamond Ice Crystals grew over Tang Dong's hands. The Ice Jade Scorpion's second soul skill, Ice Jade Pincer, gave the Diamond Ice Crystals tremendous defensive power, rendering his palms as unbreakable as ten-thousand-year ice from the Extreme North.

The two opponents moved at the same time. Golden and jade-green beams shot directly toward one another as a gale swept across heaven and earth. The Shrek students watching from up close unconsciously raised their heads. Their clothes snapped in the wind, forcing them to retreat again and again!

Boom—

A plain exchange of fists unveiled the slaughter between the New King and the Old King. Their fists flew skyward, their bodies thrown back by the powerful shockwave. Yet less than half a second after separating, they collided once more. Their fists and palms struck each other so quickly that no one could see clearly, and the spectators could only hear deafening impacts that nearly tore their eardrums apart!

They closed in, separated, then closed in again. Countless direct clashes sent sparks spraying wildly through the air.

The color blooming in Zhao Xuanzhen's eyes was even more brilliant than the blazing sun. Dark-gold light blades extended from the tips of his ten fingers, and wherever their edges passed, the air split apart into twisting black streaks!

Darkgold Fearclaw!

Both the Darkgold Fearclaw Bear and the Ice Jade Scorpion were among the Ten Great Ferocious Beast races, standing at the peak of the soul beast hierarchy. Tang Dong's competitive spirit flared. Rather than retreating, he charged forward, meeting the attack head-on with Ice Jade Pincer. The signature soul skills of the two great races collided heavily, ice-crystal pincers clashing against Darkgold Fearclaw with a sharp metallic ring.

Hiss—

Ice mist exploded over the Ice Jade Scorpion's pincers. The ultimate ice was forcibly shattered by Darkgold Fearclaw, and the residual force drove Tang Dong back three steps, gouging deep trenches into the Ice Arena beneath his feet.

"In terms of strength... I actually lost!?"

Tang Dong's heart sank. The Ice Jade Scorpion was famous for ultimate ice, but monstrous strength was also a defining trait of its race. Yet today, a stat monster had encountered an even more absurd stat monster.

Taiji Yang Hand, Golden Awakening, and two top-grade External Soul Bones—the brute force unleashed by the fusion of all three surpassed even this Young Genius List's number one!

"Junior Brother, you've angered me."

Shaking his numb arms, Tang Dong's eyes brimmed with vicious fury. Endless cold air spread outward as his aura rose like a savage dragon.

Seeing this, the Shrek students who had long suffered under the Ice Jade Scorpion's tyranny trembled and cried out:

"Tang Dong is angry! That's the Ice Jade Scorpion! Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao's second Martial Soul was the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion... Only ultimate ice can truly reveal the Ice Jade Scorpion's power!"

"It's just a Martial Soul from an outdated era ten thousand years ago. What's so scary about it? Zhao Xuanzhen, take him down!"

Na'er dismissed it with disdain. She did not care how strong ultimate ice was; she would support her childhood sweetheart without condition!

Tang Dong gave a low shout. A biting wind suddenly howled, and goose-feather snowflakes descended from the sky, covering the entire Spirit Ice Plaza!

Ice Jade Scorpion's third soul skill, Extreme Ice Blizzard!

In an instant, heaven and earth became an ocean of Ice Element. The blizzard raged as sharp ice shards scattered madly through the air. The cold of ultimate ice covered Zhao Xuanzhen's golden-statue-like body in a layer of crystalline frost and snow.

Within the low-temperature domain of Extreme Ice Blizzard, golden eyes and jade-green eyes stared at each other from afar. One burned with fighting spirit, while the other blazed with furious rage!

"Kan Word, Mysterious Ice."

Zhao Xuanzhen held his palms up in the air. A dark-blue glint flashed through his eyes as nine ice-blue pillars of light soared upward, condensing into wild dragon-shaped forms. The ice dragons devoured the frigid power to form scales, while ice flames brimming with chilling cold danced in their eyes!

Who did the blizzard belong to!

Dragon roars shook heaven and earth. Under Tang Dong's frozen, disbelieving gaze, nine ice dragons coiled into formation, drawing in the snowstorm's falling ice blades and attacking the Ice Jade Scorpion, who was beginning to question his life, all at once!

His Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring shone brilliantly. A hexagonal ice-crystal armor emerged over Tang Dong's body, frost patterns flowing across it as he forcibly endured Nine Dragons Mysterious Ice!

Ice Jade Scorpion's fourth soul skill, Frost Bodyguard!

The ice armor creaked beneath the heavy pressure, cracks spreading everywhere, yet it never shattered. The Ice Jade Scorpion's defense was evident. Tang Dong used the opportunity to break through. An ice-blue plant phantom appeared over his right shoulder, and his first soul ring flashed. An ice-blue halo spread outward as Ice Element gathered toward him at an astonishing speed!

"Mysterious Ice Grass..."

Zhao Xuanzhen immediately identified the plant's true form. The Soul Spirit Mysterious Ice Grass—the youth version of the immortal-grade Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass!

Because of Sea God Lake and the Spirit Ice Fountain, Shrek Academy was already humid. Mysterious Ice Grass greatly amplified Tang Dong's first soul skill, Ice Source Condensation. Within a hundred-meter radius, Ice Element converged like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, condensing into an ice-blue vortex that poured into his body as his aura rose steadily!

The Legend of the Dragon King Era held one enormous advantage over the previous two eras: Soul Spirits could assist soul masters in battle. Tang Dong had cultivated his ultimate Martial Soul to the Fifth Ring Soul King level before turning eighteen, and his first Soul Spirit, Mysterious Ice Grass, deserved much of the credit!

"I am the master of ice!"

The dark-blue radiance of Bagua Qimen grew denser. The Kan Word position shone as the ice-attributed energy summoned by Tang Dong and Mysterious Ice Grass suddenly stalled in midair. Then, as if slamming on the brakes, it turned without hesitation and rushed toward Zhao Xuanzhen!

An utterly jaw-dropping scene unfolded on the battlefield. An Original Martial Soul master and an Ice Jade Scorpion soul master were competing for control of Ice Element, yet the ultimate ice that called itself the Emperor of Ice had actually fallen behind!

"My ice... why!?"

Tang Dong nearly squeezed the words through clenched teeth. The ice-attributed elements he had once commanded effortlessly now displayed unprecedented resistance, as though servants had encountered a more authoritative deity and no longer cared for the Ice Jade Scorpion's counterfeit master!

High in the sky, Yun Ming and Ya Li exchanged looks. They saw both shock and dread in each other's eyes. No matter what, they had never expected that familiar script to unfold once again.

After shooting down the Holy Angel in aerial combat, overpowering the Qiankun Ball in close combat, and breaking through the Phantom Demon Fox with Mental strength, Zhao Xuanzhen had now suppressed the Ice Jade Scorpion in Ice Element!

The enormous Ice Element gathered by Ice Source Condensation betrayed its former master, condensing into a majestic Ice Dragon. Accompanied by an impassioned dragon roar, the dragon dove down. The entire Ice Arena collapsed with a thunderous crash, exposing the bluestone-paved ground beneath!

Ice fragments scattered everywhere. Tang Dong emerged from the cold dust and smoke, tearing apart his frozen, brittle sleeve in one motion. The Ice Jade Scorpion markings on his arm were vividly lifelike. Then Frost Bodyguard finally gave way under the strain, shattering into specks of ice crystals and exposing flesh injured by frost.

"Frostbite... Hahaha, frostbite!"

Tang Dong turned his head to look at the wound chilled to the bone, then threw back his head and laughed wildly. An ultimate ice soul master had been injured by ice—what an absurd joke!

The next instant, the bluestone ground crumbled. Rising cracks sank like a Mountain Collapse as the earth was shattered by unimaginable brute force. Tang Dong became a racing phantom, blood-red light spreading through his jade-green eyes!

Ever since awakening the Ice Jade Scorpion Martial Soul, he had grown up amid the praise of his elders and the flattery of those his age. With ultimate ice as his attribute, fighting above his level had been commonplace. Tang Dong had defeated powerful opponents all the way, climbing to the top of the list on the Young Genius List as the undisputed number one young genius of the continent.

Tang Dong could not accept that, despite holding a two-rank Soul Power advantage, he was still being defeated by a junior nearly eight years younger than him. To him, that was a humiliation worse than death. He refused to become a stepping stone for the other's ascent!

At the same time, it was as if a golden sun had enveloped him. Zhao Xuanzhen stood within the brilliant solar disc like a vajra descending into the world. His body resembled transparent crystal, his bones locking together with loud cracks as vast amounts of steam burst out, producing a buzzing sound like a steam whistle!

Third Soul Skill, The Way of Wuji!

Ben Ti Secret Technique, Battle Bone!

The New King sought to replace the Old King and ascend the throne, but the Old King was unwilling to surrender it. This was a war between kings, as well as a bloody battle between monsters. Neither side showed even the slightest hint of cowardice or retreat!

A string of sparks exploded. Darkgold Fearclaw scraped against icy scorpion pincers, while golden embers and jade-green ice marrow continued their silent battle within the cracks they crossed. Without a sound, an emerald-green scorpion tail extended from Tang Dong's tailbone. The tail hook flashed like a meteor streaking across the sky as it viciously stabbed toward Zhao Xuanzhen's back!

Scorpions were originally one of the Five Poisons. The Ice Jade Scorpion race pursued the ultimate of ice and abandoned the path of cultivating deadly toxins. However, its scorpion tail contained the bone-piercing chill of ultimate ice. Tang Dong believed that as long as he struck Zhao Xuanzhen and let ultimate ice invade his body, even the physique of a Gold-Grade Original Martial Soul would instantly lose its ability to fight!

Clang—

Black and White Wings burst from Zhao Xuanzhen's back. Their edges were as sharp as guillotine blades. The wings overlapped and clamped down on the Ice Jade Scorpion's long tail. They flipped through the air, and with a flash of cold light, the tail hook separated from the scorpion tail before falling to the ground with a thud!

Tang Dong suffered severe damage and spat out a mouthful of scarlet blood. His strength dropped drastically, and Zhao Xuanzhen would never miss such an opportunity. Qi Dong Shan He transformed into a Taiji Diagram, and Yin and Yang Dual Qi blasted him away in one strike!

Nearly all the Outer Court Students had gathered at Spirit Ice Plaza. The plaza was packed so tightly that not even water could pass through, and they stared at the battlefield without blinking, wholly absorbed in the fight.

At this moment, the entire venue fell silent. Most of the spectators stared blankly, cold sweat breaking out across their backs. Was the number one position on the Young Genius List truly about to change hands!?

Tang Dong, who would turn eighteen in only a month, had been dragged down from his throne in the most miserable posture at the final moment!

"I haven't lost yet!"

Tang Dong spat out a clump of crimson blood and rose while clutching his chest. Grinding his teeth and licking blood from his lips, he resembled an aged lion still fighting desperately despite being trapped!

The final Ten-Thousand-Year Fifth Soul Ring bloomed. Fire reignited in Tang Dong's dimmed eyes, and his blood began to boil once more. His entire body turned a dazzling jade green as a cold, emerald-like point of light condensed at his chest!

Ice Jade Scorpion's fifth soul skill, Extreme Ice Fury!

Extreme Ice Fury was the Ice Jade Scorpion's most powerful long-range attack soul skill. Ancient books recorded that the evolved Ice Emperor's Fury of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion could freeze a thousand miles!

"Not enough! I need to become stronger!"

Tang Dong let out a beast-like roar. A brilliant jade-green piece of armor formed over the center of his chest. A piercing howl echoed through the air as intense cold seemed to freeze heaven and earth!

One-Word Battle Armor, chest armor!

After breaking through to the Third Ring Soul Elder level, the cultivation speed of an ultimate Martial Soul became incomparably slow. Although Mysterious Ice Grass assisted him, Tang Dong found it difficult to spare the energy to forge Battle Armor. Thus, he possessed only one piece.

This piece of One-Word Battle Armor would accompany Tang Dong for a long time. He had chosen the chest because it could enhance the Ice Jade Scorpion's fifth soul skill. Extreme Ice Fury was precisely his most powerful attack, fired from the chest!

Empowered by the Battle Armor, a jade-green beam erupted fiercely. The surrounding air instantly showed signs of solidifying. As the jade light flashed, a white ice pillar appeared from thin air beneath ultimate ice's chill, forming a freezing path of Extreme Ice!

Yin Yang Reversal enveloped Zhao Xuanzhen. The instant Extreme Ice Fury struck the Black and White Vortex, the beam began spinning continuously along the airflow. Tang Dong roared with distorted features, madly pouring all his Soul Power into his chest. The jade-green beam of Extreme Ice Fury expanded, then expanded again!

This attack had already reached the limit of what Yin Yang Reversal could withstand. Spiderweb-like cracks spread across the Black and White Vortex. Yet Zhao Xuanzhen remained expressionless. A round, adorable figure stepped forward—the Spirit Water Porpoise appeared, diving headfirst into the Black and White Vortex beneath countless gazes!

Soul Spirit Entry Skill, the absolute fusion of Soul Spirit and soul skill, granting a soul skill its soul!

The Spirit Water Porpoise's fusion repaired the cracks in Yin Yang Reversal. When the jade-green beam touched the vortex, it vanished like a mud ox sinking into the sea. Then Zhao Xuanzhen raised both hands toward the sky, and Extreme Ice Fury reversed with a thunderous boom!

"Things Change, Stars Shift, Ten Thousand Rivers Return to One!"

His Soul Power exhausted, the light on Tang Dong's chest dimmed. He stared blankly as the masterpiece that surpassed his own limits tore through the air toward him, leaving him with no power to resist.

One second before Extreme Ice Fury touched Tang Dong, Zhao Xuanzhen clenched his five fingers. The jade-green beam was guided into the sky, soaring upward and freezing the heavens. The clouds turned into curtains of ice crystals, reflecting rainbow auroras as countless ice spikes hung down from the sky.

Tang Dong stood alone where he was, lifting his head to gaze at the frozen sky. Defeat and self-mockery mixed in his eyes.

On this arena, where no referee seemed to offer protection, if Yin Yang Reversal had not changed the attack's direction, the dignified Ice Jade Scorpion Soul King might have been completely devoured by the power of ultimate ice.

He had been the one to voluntarily give up using Battle Armor before the fight. He had also been the one forced into wearing Battle Armor after being driven into a corner. He had been the one who spoke arrogantly, and now he was also the one suffering utter defeat.

Tang Dong knew that he had lost more than just the number one position on the Young Genius List. His arrogant heart had been shattered along with it.

The glow of sunset slowly faded. The massive solar disc swallowed its final light, burning the icy clouds in the sky into the color of flames. Amid the crowd came the crisp cheers of the Silver-Haired Girl, along with Shrek students' cries of amazement and admiration.

Under the orange-red sunset, the two brushed past each other. A voice, faint and soft yet incomparably resolute, drifted through the evening wind.

"The future is mine, and so is the present."

Taiji Zhao Xuanzhen had reached the top of the Young Genius List!
