Humiliate Tang San!

A cold, supremely confident sneer curled the corners of Tang San's mouth.

"I truly overestimated you just now."

"Since you are courting death, then I shall grant your wish!"

Just as everyone believed that Xue Tianyu was about to be completely engulfed by the Blue Silver Grass, a critical moment arrived.

An incredibly terrifying and horrific cold current erupted from within Xue Tianyu's body without any warning.

A high-pitched phoenix cry pierced the clouds, soaring straight into the heavens!

Behind Xue Tianyu, a massive phantom rose from the ground.

It was an Ice Phoenix, its entire body shimmering with an ice-blue halo.

Every single feather looked as if it had been carved from the purest ice crystal, radiating an aura of sacred and inviolable majesty.

As it violently spread its wings, it appeared noble, holy, and peerlessly domineering!

The temperature outside the entire Great Soul Arena plummeted crazily in that instant.

"What kind of Martial Soul is this?!"

Dai Mubai's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, and he retreated in terror.

The White Tiger Martial Soul within his body actually let out a fearful whimper at this moment.

It was a form of absolute suppression, originating from the deepest depths of his bloodline!

Ma Hongjun, who was sprawled on the ground, was shivering even more violently.

The Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul he took such pride in was, at this moment, like a common barnyard fowl encountering a true dragon.

The moment the Ice Phoenix manifested, it was so terrified that it shrank completely into his body, unable to release even a single spark of flame.

"My evil fire... is actually being suppressed to the point of total silence!"

Ma Hongjun screamed in horror, his face pale.

Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing were completely stunned.

The phantom of the Ice Phoenix refracted dreamlike, iridescent colors under the sunlight.

That noble and holy posture, paired with Xue Tianyu's transcendent figure, was handsome to the extreme.

A powerful sense of admiration simultaneously sprouted in the hearts of the three girls.

This was a true peerless prodigy!

The moment the Ice Phoenix appeared, the protection of the Nirvana Ice, unique to the Ultimate Ice, erupted and spread outward.

Those aggressive, coiling Blue Silver Grass vines—

The moment they touched that layer of ultimate cold air—

They couldn't even hold on for a single second.

"Crack! Crack!"

The dense sound of freezing was crisp and audible.

Dozens of incredibly tough Blue Silver Grass vines, starting from their tips, instantly turned into fragile icicles at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A gentle breeze blew by.

Those frozen Blue Silver Grass vines shattered directly in mid-air, turning into a sky full of crystalline ice powder.

It drifted down, scattering all over the ground.

"What!!!"

Tang San's face turned as pale as paper in that instant.

He felt an extremely frigid aura surging wildly back into his body along the connection of the Blue Silver Grass.

The Mysterious Heaven Skill internal energy within him actually ground to a complete halt in the face of this cold air.

His meridians were frozen! His soul power was sealed!

"What level of frost power is this?!"

Tang San's scalp went numb with terror.

The Blue Silver Grass he took such pride in was more fragile than a sheet of paper before the opponent's Martial Soul!

This absolute Martial Soul suppression made him feel an unprecedented sense of panic.

He could no longer hold back!

Tang San hurriedly retreated violently to create distance.

At the same time, the second century-level soul ring beneath his feet suddenly lit up with a blinding yellow glow.

"Second Soul Skill, Parasite!"

He had already quietly scattered the spores of the Blue Silver Grass into the air while releasing his vines just moments ago.

As long as this soul skill is activated, the spores will instantly grow on the enemy, completely binding the opponent.

Tang San stared fixedly at Xue Tianyu, his hands forming seals in a sudden motion as he attempted to trigger the soul skill.

However.

One second passed.

Two seconds passed.

Not even a single seedling of Blue Silver Grass sprouted on Xue Tianyu's body.

"How is this possible?!"

Tang San's face drained of color, his entire being looking as if he had seen a ghost.

He discovered with extreme shock that the soul power circulating around Xue Tianyu was seamless, without a single flaw.

That extreme protective cold air had long since frozen those spores attempting to approach into dead matter.

Parasite simply could not take effect!

Xue Tianyu brushed off dust that didn't exist on his clothes.

He slowly raised his eyes, which were as deep and still as an ancient well, his gaze piercing straight at Tang San.

"Are those little parlor tricks of yours finished?"

Xue Tianyu's voice was not loud, yet it reached everyone's ears with perfect clarity.

"Now, it is my turn."

Before the words had even faded.

The first black ten-thousand-year soul ring at Xue Tianyu's feet suddenly erupted with a dark, soul-shaking radiance.

"First soul skill."

"Frost Sword Qi!"

There were no flashy or superfluous movements.

Xue Tianyu simply raised his right hand with extreme casualness.

Holding his fingers like a sword, he flicked them lightly toward Tang San from over ten meters away.

"Sshhh--!"

A massive ice-blue sword qi several zhang long, carrying a terrifying, space-tearing whistle, slashed out with a boom!

Wherever the sword qi passed, the bluestone-paved ground was instantly plowed into a bottomless frost-filled trench.

The moisture in the air was instantly drained, condensing into countless sharp ice blades that surged alongside the sword qi.

Everyone gasped in unison.

What a terrifying soul skill!

That cold, suffocating pressure felt as if it could shatter even the soul itself.

Tang San, facing this strike head-on.

In this moment, he truly and genuinely felt the breath of death!

Xue Tianyu looked down from above at Tang San, who was kneeling on the ground kowtowing to admit his mistake.

Since the other party had already abandoned all dignity to comply, he naturally would not give anyone cause to criticize him.

Xue Tianyu slowly raised his right hand.

His fingertip traced a light arc in mid-air.

A drop of azure water, pure to the extreme, condensed at his fingertip.

The water drop radiated an incredibly refined ice-attribute fluctuation.

With a slight flick of his finger.

The water drop transformed into a streak of light, accurately and unerringly sinking into the center of Tang San's brow.

That extremely cold Nirvana Ice true qi instantly exploded within Tang San's meridians.

It surged through a full cycle like a hot knife through butter.

It completely cleared the blood vessels in Tang San's body that had been frozen solid.

Immediately after, Xue Tianyu made a sharp pulling motion with his backhand.

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"

Those poisoned hidden weapons deeply embedded in Tang San's flesh were forcibly pulled out by a powerful suction force.

They brought with them several sprays of foul-smelling black blood.

With a few crisp "clangs."

The hidden weapons scattered across the bluestone floor.

The lethal toxins clinging to the wounds were also neutralized and purified by the lingering power of the extreme ice.

That lethal threat vanished into thin air with a mere wave of Xue Tianyu's hand.

The excruciating pain receded as quickly as a receding tide.

Tang San's entire body went limp, and he collapsed onto the ground like a pile of mud.

He gasped for air in great, ragged gulps, greedily breathing in the atmosphere.

His life had been saved.

Yet, the sense of humiliation in his heart right now was a hundred, a thousand times more intense than the agony he had just endured!

The undisguised, mocking gazes of the onlookers gathered around.

Felt like dull blades, frantically slicing away at his face and his self-esteem.

Yu Xiaogang hurried forward, grabbing Tang San to help him up from the ice shards scattered across the ground.

Dai Mubai, his face flushed red, also crowded over to help.

Tang San kept his head low.

His disheveled hair obscured most of his face.

No one could see the monstrous, surging venom roiling within his bloodshot eyes.

The humiliation of this day could never be washed away, not even if all the waters of the five lakes and three rivers were poured upon it!
