Chapter 662 The Haotian Hammer is nothing special.
Tang San wasn't the only one shocked by the appearance of the Ice Phoenix amidst the falling snow.
There were also 80,000 spectators on site, teachers and students from various advanced soul master academies in the viewing area of the participating academies, and representatives of various forces on the VIP stage.
This is a three-person martial soul fusion skill, and the shock it brings is far greater than the seven-in-one fusion skill of Canghui Academy.
It is important to know that a Martial Soul Fusion Skill is a skill that can only be performed when the Martial Soul is deeply fused. Both the body and the mind must be in harmony.
Even if it's just a dual-person martial soul fusion skill, the difficulty of fusion is absolutely incomparable to any other fusion skill, no matter how many of you are combined into one.
Moreover, it's a three-person martial soul fusion skill.
Two-person martial soul skills are rare enough, but a three-person martial soul fusion skill is even more difficult.
However, it actually appeared on the field of the preliminary rounds, under the gaze of more than 80,000 eyes, how could it not be shocking?
Faced with the awe-inspiring ice-blue phoenix, Tang San stood frozen in place, his eyes fixed on Shui Bing'er opposite him, unable to suppress the fear in his heart.
If it weren't for the Haotian Hammer in his left hand giving him the confidence and illusion that he could still fight, he probably would have turned around and jumped off the arena to admit defeat.
But is he someone who is willing to admit defeat?
No, he is not.
Tang San did not want to give up this match.
Of course, he could also choose to give up. After all, even if they lost this game, it wouldn't be enough to fundamentally affect their results. There would be plenty of opportunities to make it into the top five.
As the master said, sometimes, necessary abandonment is also a good strategy.
But he didn't want to.
As for the reason?
Simply put, his pride and self-confidence wouldn't allow him to accept failure.
Looking at the enormous ice-blue phoenix above Shui Bing'er's raised right hand, Tang San's expression became extremely solemn.
Both being elemental martial souls, Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix is in no way inferior to Huo Wu's Fire Shadow. These are two extreme martial souls, but both are top-tier existences.
In terms of strength, Shui Bing'er is even slightly better than Huo Wu back then.
Huo Wu possesses the Fusion Ring Secret Technique, which Shui Bing'er lacks, but Shui Bing'er also possesses the Three-Person Martial Soul Fusion Skill, which Huo Wu lacks.
While the Fusion Ring Technique is terrifying, it is clearly not as terrifying as the Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
The dazzling blue light completely illuminated the arena, and compared to the Ice Phoenix, which was over ten meters long, Tang San's figure looked so tiny.
At this point, even the most ardent supporters of the Shrek Seven Devils and Tang San no longer believed they could win the match.
However, Tang San did not believe that he had no chance of winning.
He gripped the thick, dark Haotian Hammer tightly in his left hand, his eyes gleaming with eager anticipation.
In the past few days, under the earnest guidance of his father Tang Hao, he has not yet grasped the core secrets of using the Nine Absolute Techniques of Haotian, nor has he been able to cross the threshold of being able to use them.
However, with his exceptional comprehension, he created his own unique soul skill.
We can use the water ice in front of us as a whetstone to test its power.
At this moment, Tang San still had some soul power remaining.
Although Oscar's giant recovery sausage nearly knocked him unconscious, it wasn't useless. It helped him recover a significant amount of soul power, enough to unleash a fierce Chaotic Cloak Dance.
As the enormous, icy-blue phoenix carrying immense mental pressure appeared above Shui Bing'er.
Xiao Wu, who was originally furious and wanted to attack Shui Bing'er, immediately shrank back and quickly hid behind Tang San, trembling with fear.
At this moment, Shui Bing'er's right hand suddenly swung down, the posture not exactly the same as Huo Wu's back then, but very similar.
Although she was gentle and kind, she just couldn't bring herself to like the Shrek Seven Devils. In addition, she had a task assigned by His Highness the Holy Son, and she had to do things well, at least not worse than Sister Huo Wu.
That way, I can see His Highness the Holy Son afterwards.
Therefore, Shui Bing'er didn't hesitate at all when she started to take action.
The moment the Ice Phoenix materialized, she swiftly controlled it to smash it towards the center of the Shrek Seven Devils' formation.
With a gentle wave of her jade hand, a slender, white finger pointed directly at Tang San and Xiao Wu hiding behind him. Immediately afterward, the ice phoenix, which was over ten meters long, swooped down from above.
Under Shui Bing'er's control, the Ice Phoenix descended from the sky with terrifying power, unleashing a massive amount of energy in an instant.
The scene, so different yet strangely familiar, filled the Shrek Seven Devils with utter horror. In a daze, they seemed to see the Fire Dance Sun that had once crashed down on their heads.
Led by Dai Mubai, the remaining five people, excluding Tang San and Xiao Wu, immediately turned around and tried to rush off the stage before the Ice Phoenix arrived.
Oscar reacted the fastest, conjuring two flying mushroom sausages at the fastest speed he'd ever done. He ate one himself and quickly stuffed the other into Ning Rongrong's hand.
As for the others, good luck to them, it's too late.
Ning Rongrong didn't care about being lewd or disgusting at this moment. After taking the flying mushroom sausage, she quickly stuffed it into her mouth without saying a word, chewed it symbolically twice, and then swallowed it whole.
Then, flapping the illusory wings that sprouted from his back, he and Oscar turned and flew out of the ring's designated area of play.
Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng, both Soul Masters above level 40 and still under their enhanced state, reacted quickly, abandoning their three offensive opponents and turning to run away.
The worst off was Ma Hongjun, who was hit head-on by Shui Bing'er's Ice Resistance Ring. The extreme cold energy invaded his body, and even the Phoenix Evil Fire couldn't withstand it. His entire body felt like it was about to be frozen.
Fortunately, he could still move, and using both his hands and feet, he managed to roll and crawl towards the edge of the arena.
"Snowflakes fall, the ice phoenix rises!"
Shui Bing'er's clear, melodious voice, seemingly devoid of any emotion, emanated from the blue light.
A cold current surged, and the ice phoenix gliding down from the sky did not stop for a moment, having already completely locked onto Tang San's body.
The Ice Phoenix Martial Soul Fusion Skill, "Falling Snow and Ice," is extremely powerful; once unleashed, it will immediately lock onto the opponent.
"Hey mistress, this skill is too powerful, I can't block it, what should I do?"
Xiao Wu, hiding behind Tang San, trembled with fear, clearly terrified, and even forgot to run away.
"Xiao Wu, don't be afraid. I will protect you this time. I still have a trump card."
Hearing Xiao Wu's trembling voice, Tang San revealed a faint smile and comforted her, while secretly thinking to himself, "This is truly a terrifying skill."
But
I won't lose!
"bring it on."
Whoosh—, the heavy object swung at high speed, tearing through the air and creating a tearing sound. Tang San raised the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand with a bang, pointing it directly at the giant ice phoenix that was swooping down.
Immediately afterwards, he began to infuse soul power into the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul.
As soul power was injected, the Haotian Hammer in his left hand immediately grew longer and larger in the wind, expanding to more than a meter in length in the blink of an eye, with a huge hammerhead larger than a human head.
"Self-created Soul Skill"
With a loud shout, Tang San took two steps forward, one in front of the other, his body low to the ground, his left arm muscles bulging and veins popping, and suddenly swung it out.
Whoosh, whoosh—
With a series of low whistling sounds and explosions, Tang San moved swiftly, his body spinning rapidly as he swung, his Clear Sky Hammer striking the air with incredible force as he charged up and launched his attack.
At the same time, Tang San's deep voice rang out, word by word, amidst the whistling sound of air being torn apart and the booming of hammers, sounding very powerful:
"A Dance of Chaotic Cloaks!"
Yes, the skill Tang San used this time was his "self-created soul skill"—Dance of the Chaotic Cloak—which he improved upon by combining the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique of the Clear Sky Sect with the Ghost Shadow Footwork.
With the enhancement of the Ghostly Footwork, the speed at which the Chaotic Cloak Dance stacks attack power is much faster than the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique he usually uses.
Each strike was faster and stronger than the last.
In no time, Tang San had spun and jumped eighty-one times, and the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand had reached the limit of the Chaotic Cloak Dance. A terrifying tornado roared out from his body.
The extreme icy power that was encroaching from all sides actually showed signs of being blocked, slowing down slightly. Even the snowflakes that had frozen in the air and the solid ice that had formed on the ground were swept up in it.
It looks as if it can contend with the swooping ice phoenix.
However, at that moment, a horrifying scene unfolded.
With an exceptionally loud phoenix cry, the ice-blue phoenix descended from the sky with unparalleled grace, colliding with Tang San's most powerful hammer strike, the Chaotic Cloak Dance, which Tang San, with his face contorted but brimming with confidence, barely managed to unleash.
The entire arena was frozen solid, instantly covered with a layer of blue light. The next moment, accompanied by a deafening roar, the entire arena collapsed completely.
Even the remaining members of Tianshui Academy, who possessed ice-attribute abilities, jumped off the arena before the Ice Phoenix could land.
This was arguably the most devastating and also the most dazzling moment since the start of the qualifiers.
As the terrifying shockwave from the clash swept out, the extreme icy power transformed into icy mist, instantly enveloping the entire main central arena used as the competition stage.
Whether the ten-meter-long ice phoenix successfully hit its target is unknown.
The entire vast area of the Heavenly Battle Arena was covered with a thin layer of frost.
A chill ran through the audience, freezing their expressions.
Only when the icy fog that enveloped the arena dissipated could the audience finally see the scene clearly and learn the result of the duel.
Amidst the ruins of the collapsed arena, only a graceful figure stood proudly—
She wore a light blue dress and had long, light blue hair. Although she wasn't very tall, she had a graceful figure, snow-white skin, and a delicate face, making her look ethereal and stunning.
Who else could it be but Shui Bing'er?
Yes, the winner of this competition is Shui Bing'er, and the winner is Tianshui Academy.
Their opponents, the Shrek Seven Devils representing the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, saw five of them fall off the stage, while one was frozen into a lifelike ice sculpture, embedded in the collapsed ruins.
The last person was also frozen on the arena, with only his head remaining outside. His face was as pale as paper, and he was clearly no longer able to fight.
"How could this be? How could this happen?"
Tang San stared blankly at Shui Bing'er, who hadn't moved an inch from beginning to end.
He didn't understand why this was happening.
Why did my own "Dance of the Chaotic Cloak" lose?
He had clearly stacked the hammer blows to eighty-one times, which would have been more than enough to deal with an ordinary Soul Emperor. How could he have been defeated by a mere Ice Phoenix, and in such an easy way?
In that instant, the attack of the Chaotic Cloak Dance had already reached an extremely terrifying level, and his control was also perfect. He absolutely did not believe that any Soul Master below level 60 could withstand it.
But the girl did it.
She seemed to be playing with ease, as if she hadn't reached her limit yet.
puff--
A mouthful of blood spurted from Tang San's mouth, turning into a large cloud of ice crystals before it even left his mouth. The crystals fell onto the ice surface, making a series of crisp, tinkling sounds.
At this moment, he seemed to finally see the truth of the matter and realize the huge gap in strength between himself and Shui Bing'er, which dealt another blow to his confidence.
Tang San looked up with difficulty at the ice in front of him. His second spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer, lay quietly two or three meters away from him.
When he unleashed the Dance of the Chaotic Cloak, he already had little soul power left, and after delivering the final blow, his soul power was completely exhausted.
Logically, after losing its soul power supply, the Clear Sky Hammer should have dissipated into soul light, but it was preserved intact.
This is not because the Haotian Hammer has any special properties, but because it was frozen by Shui Bing'er's extreme icy power.
Even a top-tier martial soul that has lost its soul power supply can be frozen and preserved in physical form, which shows how powerful Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix martial soul is.
At this thought, Tang San couldn't help but reveal shock in his eyes.
At that moment, the dark clouds that had been hanging over the arena since the start of the match gradually dissipated, and the swirling snow and ice that had been flying around quickly melted away, revealing the figures of Shuiyue'er and Xuewu.
Both girls were deathly pale. Their depleted soul power made it difficult for them to stand, so they could only lean on each other for support.
At this moment, only five people remained within the arena, and only one of them had the strength to fight again.
That's Shui Bing'er.
By this point, the outcome was already decided.
Shui Bing'er finally took a step and walked towards Tang San step by step.
Due to the drastic change in his fate, Tang San never consumed the Fiery Apricot Blossom or the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass, nor did he ever refine his body with ice and fire. Therefore, he had no ability to become completely immune to all ice and fire attribute energies.
At this moment, his body below the neck was frozen under solid ice, and his soul power fluctuations were extremely weak. He was unable to fight, let alone move.
Shui Bing'er stopped two or three meters in front of Tang San, looking down at him calmly. She then stomped on the Clear Sky Hammer, which had turned into ice crystals, and shattered it.
"Ha—, the Clear Sky Hammer, nothing special!"
